Artist's Comments

"Gun duel" concept illustration for a graphic novel I'm writing up. An unarmed man in his final moments has laser sights targeted on his head and torso. He has three options in this scenario, all of which involve the possibility of death. Pen scribble painted over in Corel Painter 7 then touched up and edited in Photoshop 7. The background was made up of edited building photos I took while in Shanghai and Hong Kong last summer. Unfortunately when adding the background and special lighting effects and the rain I've lost a TON of character details. I'm kicking myself at the moment because I know I always overkill everything.

[Edit: I got irritated at the colours and did a bit of editing...]

:D that is real cool, i love your pics ^^
the rain, light, and bg stand out nicely and the red makes it pretty dramatic ><;

I think the rain and the lighting give it a nice effect, and the details are still visible enough. It looks great!

Bees and dogs can both smell fear. Coincidentally, they both also like to sniff crotches. Therefore I must conclude that fear originates from the pelvic region.
