Description
The idea behind this illustration was to paint the picture in greyscale and then to compliment with a splash of red.

Excellent work. He looks like he's about to kick some ass. The red through the window is a nice touch. :)

Did you do any prework in a 3d program for the background when you didi this, was curios on how you got the windo that perfect in scale and so.. The character is way col, and your idea, is really well executed.

I love the pose of the gargoyle, though I'm not sure of his (viewer's) left leg. I understand the kind of pose though ;) I love the skin toning and muscle definition as well as the veins. The color red really works in this piece, it gives it a devilish appeal. Kind of makes you wonder whether the real threat is inside the building.

Thank you ALL for your very kind words. This makes being an artist all the more rewarding when I read such positive comments. Cheers Guyz !! BONKER- This image was produced in Photoshop from start to finish, the window was firstly sketched and then redrawn in photoshop with the line and shape tools.

You got a very gentle hand I should say. Bravo. Very nice composition and details.

The detail of your painting is so excellent as are the textures your strokes evoke! The veins on the muscle areas are a great example. Excellent!
