Had to do this one fairly fast as the contest ends Aug 31st. As it is there will only be two characters ready for the contest version with a five character special edition (with more features added that were cut due to lack of time) This guy's more the greying, aging, tough leader type. A guy a lot more in control than the more out of control first character but still not someone you should piss off. First character is at http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/13299.htm

Nice dithering for facial hair

Phexion (Level 5 Detective) @ 11/17/2013 08:59

That is some delightful dithering going on there. I saw the first character aswell. You have great work!

Mario Santos (Level 2 Flatfoot) @ 9/17/2013 10:02

The face of manliness. Loved it.

Riddler (Level 1 Rookie) @ 8/23/2008 23:00

Nice. Does this guy remind anyone else of Bruce Campbell (aka Ash from the 'Evil Dead' movies)?

llyd (Level 1 Depressed) @ 6/2/2007 04:55

Just like in a comic book! 5/5

BadMrBox (Level 2 Quiet One) @ 4/8/2007 18:43

Just as good as the other character. Sweet!

This series roxxors!

Even the collar of the jacket it just perfect. Thanks for sharing this.

pingu (Level 1 Seaman) @ 9/3/2006 12:08

He looks like Nixon in the preview. I wanted my Nixon picture...

Other than that, it looks pretty good. You've captured the roughness perfectly, but I'd like to see the image again but softer.

I'm also interested into seeing this done step by step, if you ever decide to make some more of these.

Scruffs (Level 7 Assassin) @ 9/2/2006 16:45

do you have any steps of this saved? I'd love to see how you go about doing these.

Vaati (Level 1 Seaman) @ 9/2/2006 16:06

Absolutely love your shading style, the character reminds me strangly of Action man mixed with a metal slug character =O

Stitchy (Level 6 Yonkyu) @ 9/2/2006 08:45

Totally awesome. D8 You're really great at doing really distinct facial features and the shading you've used on both is nice and catchy. MAN. <33333

Wow wow wow, this is great. I really love how you incorporated that horizontal-line effect; I don't even know what that's called if there's a name for it. I love the nice heavy contrast, thick lines, and saturated colors. This is a fantastic piece with a lot of real weight and solidness to it. Bravo.

Scruffs (Level 7 Assassin) @ 8/30/2006 15:51

ahhh you rock man, more ace work

Bob_Jones (Level 2 Peon) @ 8/30/2006 13:43

This guy kicks ass, I actually like him better than your first one.

maloART (Level 5 Killer Klown) @ 8/30/2006 13:24

I just love that style ! I would die to be able to do that Wolverine ! +fav

Space2 - It's a PC game. 2d top down. The stripped down contest version should be ready tomorrow, and the special edition (with all the stuff I wanted to put in but didn't have time) hopefully around Christmas time.

Chaindog - Yeah I think I prefer the other one's skin tone but it looked too yellow on this character due to his uniform. I've gotten quite used to this one's pinker tones though.

d-p - yeah I think that's a personal preference thing. I like it so I did it but can see that not everyone will like it.

Mirre - Thanks, hun :)

space2 (Level 3 Private Eye) @ 8/30/2006 12:22

We want more! We want more! We want the game! ;-)

Very nice job :-)

So for which platform will be the game made?

TheChaindog (Level 5 Killer Klown) @ 8/30/2006 12:12

I can't get enough of your portraits. They've got a certain charm that you don't even see in CGed pics. That said, I prefered the skin tone palette of the other character, but the rest looks a lot nicer.

Mirre (Level 9 Whale Shark) @ 8/30/2006 10:23

It looks awesome! Great design, and I really like how you do faces. The expressions fits very well together with the description. I also always thinks it's so cool how you do the sort of lined shading.

d-p (Level 11 Psychopath) @ 8/30/2006 10:11

Awesome character, nice hair lightning, facial expression is simply great. The stubbles dont work to well for me, maybe because of the horizontal lines. Great work.
