Description

well i have been very busy at work and had almost no time to do new artwork, so with what lil time i got i wanted to retouch an old piece pencilled inked and colored by me of the fan favorite barbarian who started the fantasy genre, the one and only Conan by R.E.Howard

the original pinup was done by Ernie Chan i believe - one of Conan's greatest pencilers along with J Buscema, B.W. smith and the rest..
hope you guys like my rendition

originally done on paper, inked and colored with colored pencils
added some hishlights and blur on PS(since i did this in '91 some lines were lost its sharpness etc)

feel free to shoot, all comments and crtis are welcome

looks good, but i personally think the blur tends to take away the beauty from the background. +5/5

Daequitas

thnx man
in some parts i might have over used the blur

but it has served its purpose, bringing the main characters to the front

so i accept the charge

and plead guilty

The characters don't look integrated to the background (it's too blurry). That makes it look messy and it doesn't fit the comic style. The figures are well drawn and coloured but the bg seems rushed. Doing it again or working more on it would be nice

Daequitas

in time i will certainly do it over
as you said the purpose of the blur was to bring the main characters to the front
and yeah i did this at work so rushed a lot (the retouch part is done at work, the piece originally was done back in 91 with only pencil and ink then in color pencils)

thnx again diane

will let you know when i redo this piece

Agree with SaintThyrael... but still good work. I like it..

hey I think this is really great, aside from the blur factor. The composition is very nice and the anatomy and proportions seem right on. Instead of the background being blurry, if you just made everything lighter and less detailed, it would give it nice depth...Good work! +8

Hmm...
The pencil strokes in the background make it look dirty, and the blur really hurts the drawing.
The anatomy looks great (the girl's left knee seems a bit weird, but it might just be the shading... ) and the color seems OK. The ink shading is nice too.
You might want to clean up the background...

Ha!..this takes me back to the heady days of Buscema's Savage Sword of Conan...classic stuff!

Not keen on the background either...as much as I hate his work a Boris Vallejo type tableaux backdrop would suit this better.

Have to agree with the background! But I really like the figures especially Cony baby!

oh, yeah - conan, the barbarian .. he's cool

i see he has his lady friend aside

nice drawing... the lightning is a bit off ... but overall, a good impression

Daequitas

thnx dreamshadow

Nicely done, but I strongly dislike the lightning, it's too much I think. Everything else is done great, however. +9/10

Daequitas

05/22/06 @410

well thnx slick greek
but i know its not that good

but agree with the lightning

this is a very old piece originated back to 91

so it needs more than a lil retouching

i took your kin comliments for the main two figures and not for the background

thnx man
oh by the way i will check you new arts as soon as i get home
