Another request, this one by defense374.
The pic has turned out more 'Film Noir' than originally requested, but I'm hoping it's still what he's looking for. And you never know, I might actually get a reply from this one...

I'm not as pleased with it as the previous two but it might straighten out when the colour goes on. We'll see.

I really like it... he has that Bogart look to him. "Maybe not today, and maybe not tomorrow, but I'll find you soon."

Mercy,

Looking good, if I have one comment it's that his lightsaber kind of blends into the character in general. Again that might get straightened out once the color goes on so... just a thought.

If you're having trouble getting people to respond, hit their profile pages and use the contact tab. That should send an email to whatever address they used to get onto swag. Get some feedback from them. :-)

Sweet, hadn't thought of that. I'll send some people a 'heads-up'.

Cheers, Xanamiar - Bogart is cool. Always will be.

Mercy

Sweet! I just hope you like it as much with colour. I'm thinking I might try a rainy scene. I'll see if it works. Feeling somewhat inspired by Cucumberboy's 'Rainy Day' pic.

Mercy

Okay, I've finished the colour version and decided I don't like it.

Grump grump...

I'll come back to it in a while and see if I change my mind, but I think I may just have to start again.
Poo.

I don't know why you don't like it... I love it... Very detectiveish (Yeah, I know, not a word... but I'll make it one today)

Eclipse

Mercy,

I'm going to re-itterate everyone else's comments. I love it! I think the only part that's a little weak are your puddles. Everything else is great. Try making the puddles look a little flatter, and giving them some rings and stuff where they're being hit by the rain too. I think that might pull them into the pic. I love it though, great work.

I'll go out on a limb here, and sya what every on else is saying...Looks amazing, and Eclipse hit it right on the head, the puddles are slightly off, but everything else is spot on! Ironically, I had envisioned green pants/armor of that exact shade, so the coloring is incredible.

Mercy

Really?!
Cheers, guys! Wow, what an amazing response - I was feeling quite down about this one, but I'm glad you all seem to like it so much.
I agree with you, Eclipse and Defense, I'll work on the puddles and re-submit.

Again, thanks all!

Xanamiar

Oh yeah.. the rain puddles being hit, definately pulled them in.. LOVE it... very nice work, as always... :)

Mercy

Thanks Xan, you guys are all so supportive - it gives me the big pink fuzzies, I can tell you!

Mercy

Okay, so here's another one anyway. I think this has turned out a bit Frank Miller, which I'm kinda pleased with. I was going to go on and do colour and puddles and stuff, I may well play with it a little further, but I kinda like it how it is now...

Eclipse

Definitely a deviation from your normal work, and a good one at that! Very nice, I think it'll be stronger as just black and white. Great work though as always!

Saweeeet...The new one is incredible, Frank Miller kicks. The revamped puddle one is perfect, exactly what I was looking for. Thanks again!
