Color Theory/grayscale render Quickie(but not really) 4 - But its for my twitter background too!

Watching Metalocalypse while trying to draw is way too distracting, just btw.

So this turned out pretty good, probably going to use it for my twitter page's background. I am still fleshing out the workflow with this new technique, but I do like it quite a bit. I'd say this was about 2hrs or so, not too bad... the time estimation could be messed up since I kept looking over my shoulder at Metalocalypse repeatedly this afternoon.

In gaming news, Broken Steel DLC for Fallout3 went by pretty fast, but was definitely worth it, and now I am working on Fable 2, since I kind of skipped it when it came out. The story is pretty weak, but the combat is decently fun, hopefully it will get better the closer to the end I get.

I also got EA Active, since I am a lazy ass almost all of the time. If anyone says its NOT a workout, they are lying, because I am doing the easy sessions and its beating the crap out of me, I shudder to think what doing a hard session would be like.

On Creation: I rendered this pretty extensively in grayscale before adding any color, which was done with a color layer. After setting up the basic color with the color layer I went back in and did some detailing on another normal layer. After all of that I ran a Smart Sharpen on it to give it a bit more of a finished look.

Edit: This did get scaled slightly when I uploaded it, for the full version just click the original link at the bottom. I will have to modify it slightly to put on twitter, but that shouldn't be too bad.

Edit2: OH shit, it looks baller on twitter. That's right, baller.
