Description
This image was inspired by some of the science fiction comics I read as a kid. I think it has that sort of "feel" to it. Also, the fact that I just purchased and began playing "Half Life" might have had a subliminal effect. ;-) Rendered in Vue 5 Pro Studio. A bit of postwork in PSP 8. Thanks for taking a look.

This is great! Just great. I was just looking at old SF cover art, thinking about the fabulously cheesy monsters and lurid colors, and wanting to do something-- and here I find you've already done it. What "sells" this for me, and makes it way better than the usual Poser-dreck are three things: 1) Great facial expression and head position-- none of those Poser "dead eyes" to be seen 2) great use of color -- very reminiscent of pulp art 3) great composition -- the location of beast head at 1/3 and man head at 2/3 together with sightlines-- beast looks at guy, guy looks at blaster (and us). Great work. Only suggestion: Pull up a color wheel and see what other complementaries you'd have for the hard red that's dominant

Exellent poses and the lighting is nice too. Great scene!
