Most recent little thing, done in photoshop 7 with my cheap tablet :D This was prompted by a guild i recently joined, who wanted images of superheros for a banner of some sort. So this is my supervillain. Fun to play with the colors here, tried using a different color picker option than usual- the one that mixes warm and cool colors and has you choose your hue between them.

The little highlights were especially fun to do, because i was able to do so many of them! The highlight is most often the most rewarding part of a painting, so being able to do so many felt really fulfilling. Also, i haven't been able to do A: original work, nor B: traditional painting in a very long time, so working on this was a welcomed relief between all the graphic design comps i've been doing at my day job [my job allows for art-making and creativity, but nothing compares to the sweet aroma of linseed oil and the smooth feel of a large bright or flat down a newly primed canvas].

Maybe i'll begin to post more illustration. Maybe.
