*Gasp* You draw people good!
Where are those demons coming from? His soul?
It seems though he's about to set them in his enemy, hehe.

I like this style of drawing, do you use pastel?

devoted hommage to me?

funny. tonite ive been really depressed and sad, and trying to smile, and i get that lovely note and this image.

gotta say. you brought a smile to this grey soul.

and a lovely piece of text under the well done image. the inversion works well with this and really helps to bring out the lines.

nice work

Call me four times, and devil may knock on your door.

Thank you.

Those demons are coming from behind the mask,
where they had been trapped while it was still on my face (where it is right now). (;

No, I've actually never used pastel so far (can't afford all the cool art tools that are out there ) . This is actually all only three varying strengths of pencils, of which I upped the contrast in one notch to make them look like pastels and/or inked.

If you like this, you must go visit * b33lz3bub; you're going to his style.

OMG, *jumps up and down* that's frikkin awesome. (Beware, the following is my first constructive comment *gasp* EVER)

I really like how you turned a simple pencil sketch into something that looks completely Photoshopped. I don't know if that's possible, but that's what it looks like to me. I really also appreciate the way you made the mask noticable as the point where all the demons came from by lighting it up. It adds quite a neat effect.

Steph's rating: 4/5 (lol!)

-There are some lines in there that I would have gotten rid of. (I'm more for the simple look) KISS! Keep It Simple, Stupid!
-I really really like the mask (I JUST noticed, cut me some slack) and the spike on his shoulder is very crisp and sharp looking.

Great job!

I correct: 4.5/5

-and I correct myself once more. I meant to say that the sketching looks real, but the rest seems like it was really photoshopped. I don't know how to explain. Maybe that's what makes me sounds stupid?

Wow, nice work man, I likes!

Thank you.
I'll concentrate my reply to the next comment of yours.

thanks! Did you see my scrap called "Than A Pretty Lie"? I posted it for you because I need your help! (Some of the text isn't done) But OMG IT'S SOOOO BORING AHHHH

I really only gave myself five minutes to do the photoshop after-edit. I wanted to test my speed.

Pencils used were 6H for starting, H for roughening, and HB for making heavier tones.

These were my steps of editing (expressed in ascending order from bottom layer to top):
• Color/Saturization decreased
• Brightness/Contrast modified to darker and blacker tones
• Blotted borders and smudges out with a white airbrush
• Inverted image value (negative)
• One layer with the colors (airbrush/eraser) for Wratts (clothing, skin, etc.)
• Added the glow emitted from the mask (decent white airbrush and erasing)
• Mixed color channels to tilt the color balance minimally towards red.
• Added a simple frame.


You don't sound stupid!
Thank you.
