 Waaaa...... I swear I'll never try something so high-res again! This was exausting. ><
Anyway, it's a poster of Unicron, the Transformers god of evil, a Satanic entity. He exists the same in all dimensions, as does his twin brother Primus. Primus is the god of light and creator-god who made the Transformers, so the two are polar opposites.
This actually began as an idea to draw Sideways for Loco to surprise her, instead I ended up drawing this very dark and handsome face and went from there, very rapidly and the image formed. So ultimately I had this picture of 'humanized' Unicron.
I chose to draw him with the Earth rather than Cybertron after careful consideration. In the end I decided that the Earth would be better a choice because even though we know and recognize Cybertron, it's as a planet far away. We live on Earth, here, and it's our home. We recognize the Earth at a glance as where we live, almost the same as seeing our own flat/house/apartment. And seeing it in immediate danger, you recognize that it means that you are in immediate danger, and so is everyone that you love and everything you know. Unicron can destroy it all in an instant, just using the tips of his claws!
Ah, the art........
Was some of the most difficult stuff I've done so far. The hair to start was tough to do for getting the right contrast with the blackness of space, though the highlights were fun to do. And of course I had fun with the face, but always they are my favorite part to draw. This time was unusual because he unlike most people, has the facial hair, and a rougher countenance.......
The hardest parts were the wings and the body. The wings, and I had very small and intricate details to draw, fixed, and to color, and had to make sure the color did not bleed. Then for the body, I skipped over a step and as result, things were a little harder. It's the first time I draw a character with a frame much more muscular than an athletic type (like Jazz would have) or noble a type (like Optimus would have). So I wasn't as used to defining those muscles.
Fortunately, though, the darkness and lights brought everything together wonderfully. I am delighted with them. All of the lighting comes from a glowing, centered light sourced, which sets the mood for the whole picture. Then on Unicron's face, there has the eerie glow of his eyes.
All in all, I'm very satisfied. I think it's the most frightening picture I've done, though my dabbling in horror is kind of light, and the results are just like I wanted. And all I can say to finish is saying that, I really do and hope you enjoy it.
