N'joy.

The rendering is great, though the left foot seems out of perspective with the right. Unless the feet are intended to be organic soft matter. I love the wierdness of the whole thing.

**JAG.** · August 18th, 2006, 01:20 AM

fantastic.. well done - JAG

**FatherWinter** · August 18th, 2006, 02:47 AM

Thanx for the comments ppl! Much appreciated.

The whole thing was an exercise in lighting and form, no deep thought behind it, kinda grew as I went along.

I've attached the line art as well so N'joy.

very good work !

**Mack72** · August 18th, 2006, 03:56 AM

Fucking beautiful.

Simple as that.

Need to see more!!!

Mack.

**lewiston** · August 18th, 2006, 04:04 AM

dude, both pieces are awesome, but it is such a pitty that there is so much getting lost of that brilliant pencildrawing in the finished piece. Thanks for sharing - great work...

**joiton** · August 18th, 2006, 04:48 AM

Nice weird monster. Ilike the colors (red and green, my favourites complementaries), and the ass (in a "looks like its real" kinda way

).

Moooore!!!

**Coinpurse** · August 18th, 2006, 05:17 AM

what the hell...

lol thats badass man, thanks for sharing. Btw, whats up with the head? is that a hat or a boot with teeth? i cant tell..still lol

**Form** · August 18th, 2006, 05:22 AM

this has a real "i can learn a lot from this" feeling, especially the minuitiae of the skin folds etc in the pencils. very nice.

**sleep** · August 18th, 2006, 05:34 AM

whatever it is was very hard to read at first glance, compared to the sketch.. if you're going to make most of the bottom of the figure dark, some highlights along the back of the leg would help readability..

as far as the sketching and colouring goes, it's rather fantastic

**glikster** · August 18th, 2006, 08:33 AM

sweet job... I like the feminine curves and the WTF?! rest of it...

**blog** · August 18th, 2006, 09:14 AM

The pencils are MUCH MUCH better than the finished piece, I love those pencils! You just don't seem to have gone in full heartedly with that 'finished' one, and it still needs work :/

**vigostar** · August 18th, 2006, 10:12 AM

Wow, this is some great work....! although I really like your painted version, your pencils are jaw dropping.. they have a bit of "Huantish" style to them.. and i have a super sweet spot for Carlos's work.... I really hope you have more work to show us.. man... you get me inspired to work in pencils right now... thanks!

**astgoddard** · August 18th, 2006, 06:17 PM

Gil I love you.

it's so hot in this warehouse!

**se7en_** · August 18th, 2006, 09:28 PM

Wow there are no words worthy of describing this magnificent creature. Great, design and rendering... Post more stuff dude.

**tensai** · August 18th, 2006, 09:45 PM

really like both the painting and the line work. what size is that pencil drawing?

**Amazing Action Ape** · August 18th, 2006, 10:05 PM

Im going to join in with the chorus, and say that that, my man, is fucking beautiful.

**Ninth** · August 18th, 2006, 11:38 PM

Triptastic awesomeness at its weirdest! Top-notch, man.

Right on ppl! thanx for the amazing comments

tensai
the line art size is 11by17, done on vellum paper with polychromos Faber Castell pencil.

astgoddard
I love you back! HAAAARRRRD!

vigostar
Cheers mate! I'm a big fan of carlos, second only to my all time killer artist, the BIZ! I'm glad I inspired you to draw, your comments inspire me to do the same

blog
I don't know about full heartedly...but thanx for the crits

glikster
WTF! indeed!

tie
Cheers man, good crit.

Form
I'm glad you feel this way about the work. if you have any specific Q's let me know.

Thestjester
Well, the head/helmet is roughly designed after a woman's pilgrim hat, at some point I went of on a tangent exploring form. It kinda all made sense to me, the helmet turning into a mouth with this sickly tongue coming out... oh...did I mention she's my version of red riding hood

lewiston
I felt the color let me explore different aspects of detail.
since this wasn't anything specific I had fun rendering with pencil just as much as focusing on the torso and head with the color.

You ppl are asking for it so I must oblige, here is another piece.

I call him PUSHKA, russian for cannon.
I had this idea for quite some time of a sherif type of character that is one with his weapon. I started of with a cliche western theme but this developed into a russian sherif! The effect of western culture on russian life is very pronounced and I love the humor and irony in it.

Anyways...bla bla bla...N'joy

**Simon Boxer** · August 19th, 2006, 04:10 AM

Interesting work, I find that second piece quite amusing.
Nice perspective and colours. Cool texturing, too.

**sleep** · August 19th, 2006, 04:56 AM

hahaa i love the latest one. not sure what it is, but it's damn well done

**dorian** · August 19th, 2006, 09:55 AM

nice, very cool style!
do you have a website? maybe?

**Temujin** · August 19th, 2006, 10:25 AM

awesome stuf..But I had trouble figuring out the head..
(sorry)

**asoir** · August 19th, 2006, 10:39 AM

Hot, love the way you handle techie stuff.

**GriNGo** · August 19th, 2006, 01:50 PM

nice... but I rather think you color a bit too darkly. the lines of the first illustration you posted are way better then the coloring.. at least for me! kick ass non the less!

**Orifice** · August 20th, 2006, 07:45 AM

Hahaaaaaa! That last one's genious! Like the look on that gentlemans face! A bit like hes taking a dump, but lookin real neat n tidy with that sweet haircut and stash. real nice metalwork too. Fantastobot.
