Artist's Comments

This is something I said I'd do....probably a month or more ago. I've just had so many other things going wrong inside my head that I kept pushing this to the side. Well pushed aside no longer!!!

~Drakaiser requested a painting of himself as a cyberpunk vampire. So I whipped this up using a photo of him, and only when I was getting towards the end did I realize this was a bit like Dante of Devil May Cry. What can I say? Dante's hawt, and Drakaiser's pretty cute.

Guns are so not my thing. I had to search high and low for a photo of someone pointing a desert eagle at the camera, but I finally found one i was pleased with. Guitars are also not entirely my thing, so this one looks awfully awkward. But I still like it. I just liked the whole dragon theme going on.

Nicely done. :)

Damn good work, nice to see that you *can* draw men with a more masculine facial structure. I was beginning to worry that all your male figures looked slightly effete.

So very very good. I think this is the best I have seen from you so far. I think I want to give up on digital art until I see something from you and it makes me want to try harder. The guitar isn't bad. I did almost miss the gun, maybe if it wasn't pointing right at you, angled a little to the side so we could see the length it would have stood out more...but....that isn't a criticism, nothing is wrong with it. The coat is velvety again. ( love that). I really like the sword on the shirt. It is these details that makes your work so rich.

TEHMCDUCKFUCK!

I love the warmth and depth to the colours you use. The give a very soft, sensuous feel to everything - the fabrics, the shapes and, of course ye olde vampire here.
I love the contrastbetween the soft, natural fibres and shapes and the harsher curves of the guitar. Perhaps you could have made the metals a bit more metallic (I make the contrast on them very stark. That seems to work most of the time) but they blend in very well this way.

POWAH TO YE!!!

It's amazing, and the gun is CLASSIC, it's excellently pulled off.
