Halloween

I think I started this mad scientist painting 3 times. The colors were not working. So I went to my reference folder and found some art I liked that used colors more effectively and in a more original/interesting way then I am able to come up with. I found this Analogous combo and I like the results.
Stay tuned, more realism is on its way...

Hi David,
I love yellow color, it's like golden. Lighting is brilliant. I agree with Jeremy's comment, but monster is not looks clear at a glance.
Any way, I just uploded Ronaldinho's caricature. Need your suggestions and cooments.
Thanks.

Nice blog.

THanks for the kind words.
Manoj, the obscure monster is intentional. It is there more as a shape and should not be a focal point that draws too much attention. As long as it reads as a monster I am satisfied.

Now I am agree with you.
