DC 2099 #10 : LOBO
Aw man, one of my fave characters, I was going to attempt this but I don't want to embarrass myself.
The DC 2099 Contests have been somewhat similar to the concept of all the future themed DC Comics, including the DC 1 Million. I posted a Poll some time ago asking if the DC 2099 Contests should continue and the majority of the votes said, "Yes".
Lobo was Om1kron's choice. A lot of users like the idea. Wish more artists would submit.
Are you going to submit something for this contest?
nice entries so far guys!
I see that the DC 2099 has finally been recognize as a official Artist Showoff Showdown contest! Congrats to the one who started this and the artists who continually supported this concept!

the path must be made sometimes, by no sides lead and bare feet :)
@Fennewalde: yea the shrinkage is a bitch, can throw you off a lot depending on designs. Good thing to note is it's only gonna go 600px wide. Height don't matter.
Very nice, the arms rock. Go figure, I wanted to see an ass shot of Kara over in the battle thread but instead I find one of Lobo here. Fraggin irony :)
@Decept-O: In order: Yes. HB pencil, Scan, Photoshop, color. Simon Bisley is one of my fav artists and sam kieth is a lot of fun too. I'm kinda honored by your words, but, at the same time, want to distance myself from these commercial artists style wise.

uh, yeah. That bike picture is 1,700 pixels wide. Which makes me sad it can't be displayed fully. D:@Fennewalde: yea the shrinkage is a bitch, can throw you off a lot depending on designs.

Here's a bigger shot that fits comicvine constraints better.
Also, go see the bike image in full size. it's 30% of it's original size on C.V.

check it out. or find it here on C.V in original size!
Paint brush tool and paint. I really didn't use any other tool in Photoshop.
No filters were harmed in the making of this drawing. =P
@Fennewalde: yea 1700 isn't gonna look right on a post, but good thing to know is the original size is still intact from your image gallery when you use the zoom option. Just checked it out in all it's hi-res glory.
insanely sweet, that's a crazy ass perspective.
I am not familiar with Photoshop, only when artists say they use it. Based off art I've seen when artists use it, I don't think I've ever seen it stand out like that.
When you say you used paint----what type? Unless it was in Photoshop? If I am being too nosy forgive me. I just haven't seen something stand out like that before.
Paint could be one of two things, first being the paint we all know and love with a brush. Second being the program by Corel, basically another image editor like photoshop but with more of a focus on brushes and paint tubes for the artistic types." @Fennewalde: I am not familiar with Photoshop, only when artists say they use it.

EDIT: lol on the filters being harmed!!!!! I've certainly put a few in the grave back in the day :)
Yes, I am familiar with the different types of paint in existence, and I am being nosy, trying to find out what type of paint he used, if it wasn't something like Corel like you pointed out.
I've got several different types of paint and brushes right here in my boxes which I've not touched for some time. So I am curious how this was done.
sorry for the confusion. When i say 'paint' i am referring to color in photoshop. Like, you select the color and that's what comes off your brush tool.
@Decept-O: If you look hard enough, you can find Photoshop programs for freeeeeeee on the internet. I'm not condoning this action, just sayin'. I'd send it to ya for freeeeeeeee but the connection in P.R.C is slow when accessing U.S internets. =/
It really is an amazing program that can do so much more than filters and lens flares.
" @Decept-O:@tonis:this is true.

And you can also get it legit for 30 days of use if you have any moral issues. Not long enough to do a lot, but certainly a way to at least tease yourself :)
Very impressive digital coloring Fenn, it aint easy getting a natural look with pixels. The fact that we weren't sure if you used traditional or digital is a statement towards that accomplishment.
" Well, fellas, sorry, but that isn't my bag. Maybe I am a knucklehead for not going that route, and perhaps it would help, but if it sounds sketchy, won't do it. Only thing sketchy I pursue is pencil, pen, ink, paint, and paper. "it's only sketchy when you start making a living using it and don't support your tools.
At this point in it's existence, Multi-Millions of copies of photoshop have been downloaded by people looking to learn digital imaging and it's done nothing but increase their sales and make it the dominant program in it's field. You shouldn't pay to learn it, but you should learn to pay for it when it becomes important to you.
Besides, if you can learn it in 30 days, then they're happy to oblige you sketch free :)
OK, if it is a legitimate free trial from the very company (Photoshop, right?) I don't have a problem then. I still have my stances though, won't back down from them if any of it is from other sources which aren't the company.
I am behind with a lot of things yes, but if you can't do it honestly, don't do it at all. I don't swipe nor copy and paste, all I do is original. I am not very good but I CAN say that with all honestly.
Well, Tonis, hope you will contribute your Lobo soon. Same for IcePrince, hope he can pitch in with his! Maybe other artists?

Yup, legit free trial good for 30 days on the machine you install it on. Not a rule to be broken there.
you're only behind if you see something that you feel you need to catch up to, otherwise, as long as you got what you need, you're right on time :)
My Lobo's about 50%, working on him now. Hoping to have him done by the morning light. Really hoping Ice gets in this one too with his funky freshness.
I'm actually done designing this one but am waiting for it to render out. This guy seems to want to eat my pc being born.
Should be uploaded in next hour and a half.
EDIT: hit the 3 post rule so I'm just adding it via edit.
half hour longer than I guessed. This Fragger did not want to come out.
He's got a few more grays and a pimpin bike. Still leaving a mess where ever he rides.
