FEAR






















This is my piece for 2D that Mooney mentioned yesterday. I went a completely different (and obvious) direction and depicted a common staple of 'scary' characters; the Hooded Figure. There's lots of them; the Sith in Star Wars, the Wraiths in Lord of the Rings, Death itself, you name it. The Hooded Figure a common image used to represent something to fear, so that's what i drew.

Went reeeeaaaallllly messy with this, and used more greywash than usual. Was fun to do.

Dec.

...or those no-good teenagers you see hanging around these days. I thought this was a Darth Maul piece when I saw the original.

I half expected you would do a Mr Fear piece. This reminds me of him though.

Heh, yeah, the beauty of drawing a generic villain; he looks like everyone. And hoodies.
