Yep, the Barsoom stuff continues. And I get to proove yet again why I need to practice my artistic 'skills' more often. This was a test of sorts for me...I referenced my custom Tars Tarkas figure for proportion and lighting. Things about it bug me...the length of the second set of arms is asymmetrical, and the contrasts are a bit harsh. I also might change the environment, since I sort of just filled the colors in without much thought. But I kind of think there's some promise here, enough to make me play around with the technique. Using a figure with real light and shadow was definitely very informative and helpful, and I may just give this approach another go to see if I can improve it. I sure hope I can.
P.S. I know the quality of the image isn't great...I photographed the picture since I don't have a scanner.
