panzer people

Here's the final painting of my Panzer Dragoon throwback for the 8-bit show. I went through a few color palettes and a couple of drawings with this one and I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Still think I need to tweak the lights some more but I'm burnt out!! Wish I could see everyone's work in person.

I m really glad you choose this game dan, some good selection thought. You have some really good things going on in here = composition, attitudes of the characters, and color. I think the dragon in this game was one of the best designed ive seen. I wish we could all go to some extinct game arcade after the show.

Thanks y'all, and yes the dragon and creatures in all of the Panzer games are damn wicked. The design and concept art for these games is so so so good and weird. Thanks on the palette - it's pretty unconventional for me and it felt great to break out of my usual bright, kinda gaudy colors I'm trying to steer away from...

... can I just crit myself? Haha. Edge (the guy up front) has a totally skewed head/face, which I didn't notice until now. Ack!

Thanks for the comments!
