Paint Along with Rourke - Snide - Chavinci, by Rourke on Dec 19, 2007 17:44:25 GMT 1, Cheers Harveyn, do you mean where the hand is or the leg, or all that area. I hate doin hands! I know what you mean though a little, I try and hide them if I can (hands that is) a few artists in history have struggled with certain body parts.
but with it being one of my first. I had to say to myself STOP, cos I was frightened of spoiling it, if you know what I mean. I might try again to bring it in more.
Cheers mate

Paint Along with Rourke - Snide - Chavinci, by Harveyn on Dec 19, 2007 17:53:25 GMT 1, Hi Rourke
Yeah from half way down the forearm to the knuckles on the hand. But seriously even with this it is very good.
Its just I think it would be excellent with that one exception. Put it this way the first image you posted without this element I would buy.

I too think the right forearm / wrist needs a bit of work. It looks a tad "stretchy" and not as dramatic as the rest of the picture.
Other than that, fantastic work!

I am trying to develop a style of my own, Impressionistic paint strokes and pen work to give it the feel of being scetchy, with suggestions to small details (ie. hands, toes) I never intended it to be Realism. ;D

Paint Along with Rourke - Snide - Chavinci, by Joe J on Dec 20, 2007 2:08:42 GMT 1, As always your work is amazing Rourke. You are incredibly talented.
The head shot for me says it all.
Dope colour scheme. The highlight in the background gives it depth. Just a small comment, I think the hand around the trigger might need a little work. But heh... thats just my small opinion.
All the best.

Thanks for the new scans... On reflection, I do like the brush strokes around the trigger finger.
I still love the head-shot too.
Great stuff.
