Venom Digital painting [update]

[loaf2000]

this is my first digital painting. I used Gimp.

 

there are some details I need to fix and areas to clean up.

 

Im not sure if i'll do a background yet.

 

feel free to comment or criticise.

 

 

 

 

new version:

 

 

made him thinner

[D3M0NX]

the right leg looks a little fat

 

 

 

other than that uts sooo cool!!!

[reddawn509]

his whole lower body/back are too fat.. the rest if nice.

[Talset65]

He needs to go on a diet.

[pjb21]

it looks very nice, however as others have said he looks fat

 

 

 

all areas below the chest really

 

 

 

curve the back in a bit more, give him more curves, i klnow it may sound weird, but you dont want a brick

 

 

 

the legs... really they need a compleat redo, i suggest a start over, te sizing of them seams wrong and theres not nearly as much detail in then as there is in the arms, which certainly doesnt help make them look good.

 

 

 

the right arm, while detailed doesnt look right, this is because the shoulder muscle isnt really connected to the main upper arm.... really it should be an inverted (or upsidedown) tear drop shape, meaning it over-laps the main muscle, in your image its a circle or a blob, hardly fetching XD

 

 

 

also not quite shure about the muscle between the neck and right shoulder, i feel that also it rather a 'blob' make it more intergral, bland it in with the soroundings and such.

 

 

 

i find it weird how most of the image goes to black in the shaddows, yet the chest simply goes slightly greyer/darker this gives the feeling it is totaly seperate from the lower torso.

 

 

 

its a very nice piece and shows alot of potential, however (like all things) its not perfect, keep working at it tho, it could become a great piece

 

 

 

oh, and i personaly dont feel it needs a BG

[terley]

you've just extended his body too far

 

 

 

 

 

 

paint edit :o

 

 

 

oh need to add also, very impressive.

[pjb21]

still dont like the legs :wink:

[loaf2000]

thanks everyone. I'll try and fix it when I get a chance, and post an update.

[loaf2000]

trimmed some of his fat off.

 

 

 

 

Edit: sorry I double posted. :oops:

 

I should've added this to thepost above.

[Robert_Rdam]

Really nice man. I love it! :D

 

But I feel he needs to be a bit taller. :oops:

[ThruItAll]

Um nice, how do you do digi-paint on GIMP. He is too tall, and his pelvic area is quite large. Are you using a picture for pointers?

[runemetsa]

really nicely done! =D> the picture is bit blurry but it doesn't matter.

[Jopie211]

The updated one is very nice, I wish I could make something like that... :(

 

 

 

Anyway, good job! :)

[loaf2000]

thanks guys.

gimp has a lot of the same stuff photoshop has. I only used regular circle brushes the smudge tool, and some color effects.

 

 

 

..And i googled some pictures of venom to get the details like his face and the spider on his chest right, but It's not a copy of another picture if thats what you mean.
