XMenOrigins: Blob

Photobucket

Can't get enough of Kevind Durand and his awesomness :D
This time I present you Fred Dukes a.k.a. Blob

It was quite a challenge to draw him, because I've never draw someone soo.. erm.. big :> I draw hot guys and chicks, not ... this...
But it was fun and pain at the same time and a little bit of real satisfaction when I finally finished it. The reasons why I even started to draw this portrait are:
  1. I'm a fan of Kevin's works
  2. everyone else draw Wolverine, Wade Wilson, Victor Creed and the rest of hot guys and no-one showed, as far I know, some love for the big guy ;(
  3. I watched this - in one scene KD is doing kinda flirty look that killed me and I couldn't stop laughing :D I just had to draw it! :D :D Besides you should watch all of those 'featurettes' to apreciate actors, creators, makeup artists works, and guys, they really put much effort to bring to life our fave characters :)
Back to this piece, I wanted to combine the super-realistic portrait of Blob (based on a really poor screenshot) with the little figure of "war Blob" (according to creators words) drawed in more sketchy/american comic style but keeping KD likeness.

Ok, ok, so I skipped the hands :> you can sue me for that ;P
Sadly, the original drawing looks much more better - my scanner apparently hates me :(

finally after long ages... no wait... only few months... or maybe whole year? dunno
but there was few wips of this piece.. I wanted to color it in PS but I failed at it: III, II, I - so I decided to color it with pencils.. in the end I added stars in CS3

personal note:
I think that mixing traditional drawing with a little bit of PS7 [or any other program] is not a bad idea since the most important thing is the final result, and I can say that this piece is in 95% same as I can see it in my head
