Caemgen

And yet more new arts...

When commissioning Cric (http://cric.deviantart.com/) I ordered my usual 1 of each character and I mentioned it might be nice to have similiar backgrounds behind the characters, as if they were all up on the same rooftop or in the same scene... Something to bring the three individual pieces in together so if I printed them up for wall art I could put them side by side and they would gel together...

Well, here's the individual pieces:








Put them all together and you get....



You ask me, Cric went above and beyond! Instead of three individual pieces I get one huge freaking battle scene!!


p.s. - Also got a certain resident colorist to work on my Tim Kelly pieces - they came out fantabulastic! I'm going to let him post those up though - He should be bragging about how good a job he did, not me bragging that I hired him

I've actually got an idea I rather like for this topic... If I can pull it off at least half decently I may even show it

Very impressive indeed! I love those type of collage pieces and this one was excellently done.

Must admit, I'm missing the Firefly reference... But as much as I like the show I've never been one of those people good at remembering things line for line

As for shampoo... LoL. I actually quite like the hair in the pic, ties in well with the beastly aspect of him I think. Besides, I've personally never used conditioner in my life

As for looking up from the abs, I think you're just disappointed there's no Caemgen nipplage for you to look at!

And yeah, I think we've decided Becaro must have gotten the green from Eddy's piece... Either that or it was payback for me saying there should be drug testing in boxing in the comments section of his journal about the Pacqiano (sp?) Mayweather fight... 0,o


Joph - it is nice to have stuff coming in regularly . Though pretty soon there should be a big break as I'm laying off commissions for a while unless unbelievable opportunities arise... Partly to let stuff catch up so it's easier to keep track of, partly to spend some funds on having some stuff printed and partly to save up for some really big pieces which I want to have done but which will be pricier than normal due to having multiple characters in them on wanting them to be top quality works... 3 of those will be the scenes PresidentNelson decided he didn't have the time to do justly and one or two are ideas I have which will involve some forumites characters... More on those when I get around to actually recruiting for them

There's a time and a place for everything - That time and place is college. Have fun and good luck!

And here we have Rhardo's portrait of Caemgen... http://rhardo.deviantart.com/ - He did great pieces for Alpha and the Daybreakers so I figured I had to get Cae and Fenian portraits as well (Fen's in the works...)





And here is Becaro's version of Caemgen from previous but with some color correction from Suichiro - Thanks again for that, I really appreciate it!

Fabulous job... The characters, the background, the frame... It all works great!

As for the Menders, not into them myself but I think often the less there is known about a group the more attractive it can be since you have that much more freedom to make your own histories and stories.

The heck with belts... Caemgen wants to wear suspenders!!

Yeah, I caught that on my dA watch and immediately loved it...

Then again, hard to think of any Nadya art I didn't enjoy...

I've actually toyed with a green version of him... But skin tone, not clothes

The green was glaring when I first saw it... Probably because it was totally unexpected. I'm growing more used to it the more I see it... Not positive liking it more but... Hmmm.

$10 Quick Commission done by John Becaro http://johnbecaro.deviantart.com/

I really like his work on the face and love the detail on the gloves, boots and shoulder pads... Not totally sure where the green came from though.

That is really cool!

Never bought any...

Would possibly. Would probably be more likely to if it was simple to get one of a pic I ordered (would save me hassle of getting it done elsewhere when I get to that) but I would potentially buy one of more general art... But if so it would be unlikely to be a character and more likely to be more... er, I don't wnat to say more real art or something which could be taken the wrong way... But more something I'd be likely to put up in my front room as opposed to my computer room?

There's actually a couple things I have favorited on dA which I would consider getting but I haven't looked at pricing, sizes avail, or if they're even offered as prints yet.

Well, at least I now have some understanding of what is meant by vectors now

Still no understanding of the lime green ice cream soda though!

Ok, for those who are art illiterate (me) what exactly is meant by vector work in this context?

I know what vectors are generally but not sure exactly how it applies to art?
