little old man

[jibberish]

here's something a little different style from what i usually do. more of a cartoony look than most my other stuff. this is just a test of what i want the final image to look like. i'll actually probably make him blue instead of normal colored, just for the fun of it. anyway, here he is so far.

Looks good so far. He has a rather sad expression wonderfully captured.

Nice to see a new Jib piece! :tu: :cool: :tu:
I think the expression is really fine...There is a lot being communicated by the eyes, and I'm looking forward to seeing where you go with this well done character!

My grandparents had a neighbor in their retirement building who JUST like this guy.

[DeeVee]

I think everyone knows someone who looks like this old timer.

[jibberish]

hey, folks...thanks a load for all the kind comments. i've finished him, but my computer's bogging and i can't restart it (long story)and so i'll post the finished pic later tonight. thanks again!

Edit: hey, i got a chance to post it sooner than i thought! how grand! anyway, here's the final pic. his background in his eyeball texture. if anyone wants it by itself, i'd be more than willing to post it on here.

As a gemcutter, I have to tell you that that material looks exactly like Afghani Lapis Lazuli...!!! :eek:

Here's a Lapis dragon I am finishing in my studio...When it is polished, it would have the same appearance as your head, in regard to the material, except with a glassier finish...Do an old rock-abuser a favor, and post that material if you have it available... :cool: ;)

[jibberish]

hey, you're right, stonecutter! that's too cool. tell you what, as soon as i can, i'll get that material on this thread. i'm kind of busy at the moment, so i can't right now...
