....So you may learn to improve....

by the way..

Full....the freakin View

These are my words to those who've ever dared to scoff at advice to improve artisically, no matter how harsh or bluntly it was dealt. Though the way it sounds is rather up there...but thats what comes to mind when I was hammerin this one out in pen. But enough about that

In general this is actually Gaiaonline avatar art of my avatar (believe it or not folks), but through the stylins of Warhammer 40000 (Gaia40k if you will), AND what generally defines who I am (however odd that may be). Though I'll always say I'm that shadowy dog-headed guy who lurks in the shadows of the abysmal picture post, who always seems to have been there...but still is rather unknown, which is probably a good thing. But I digress, I need to make a mention about the names on the tassets and shoulderpads. During the render I had had the nifty idea of putting names of people on the blank areas of said parts to fill em in and make em look texty. However these are people who automatically come to mind when I think of who has inspired me, helped (and continued to do so) me improve artistically, and generally supported me through my actions. (though me shrinking it kinda blurs some of the names....tsk tsk)

In conclusion...this is what I call....getting the lead out....since I never render like this often....its time consuming, and a strain on my focus, but the results are pretty damn worth it, if I may say so myself!

So enjoy, and lets hope I can get better and more efficient at rendering in this manner
