Topic: A title too long (wip)

The original title is "And then it killed me, And I, by some stretch of chance, returned the favor", which I'm not diggin' at the moment, but its the best I can come up with..

Its smallish, because I like to try small things.

Also, I suck at guns. (blech, help on the would be appreciated...)
I'll add color, detail and a background later...

When it comes to pistols, the actual handle part of the gun is surprisingly long. Nearly as long as the barrel. Also, your barrel is too long. Interesting WIP so far, I'll be looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Time for some gun referencing. TO GOOGLE, HO!.

edit: and have at you a shoddy interpritation of light before I start to colour it... (with a barrel edit)

It's looking interesting, but what exactly is it that has impaled him?

just don't forget that things cast shadows to block the light. ie on his thigh, on the ground, etc.

love the wip stages you're showing us, quite fun and educational, thanks!

Started on the horrible colour job, I'll start adding background details before I start going into detailing the colour with light sources and stuffs

i thought he was holding a sawn off shotgun.. oh well..

1 - the grey will look ptryy boring in the end i think. give it some slight hue. light blue usually looks good on something white

2 - where does the bullet exit? either the impaler is make of something pretty bulletproof, or the bullet is very weak right now.

waiting to see this unfold

ps. i liked the other, linked delgeist better, it looks more like a creature
