Description COMMISSIONED PIECE - PLEASE DO NOT USE!

----

This is the piece requested in exchange for buying me a one-year-subscription to DevArt. He gave me lots of information for both those two characters from a book he's writing, and I'll share the initial information with you:

John Macca: Field Leader of the United Nations Paranormal Investigations Division (PID). Of Native-American and Iranian descent, John is in superb physical condition. He possesses super-human strength, agility, and endurance. In appearance, he is muscled but not overly large, built for speed rather than power. His hair is dark black and nearly shoulder length. He generally wears jeans, heavy boots, and let’s say a leather jacket of some kind.

Katarina Vetter: Musician and love interest of John Macca. Katarina has long pale blonde hair and light eyes, making her the exact opposite of John. In the book she is described as having bangs but I’ll let you toy around with it a bit. She is, of course, beautiful.

---

The scenario shows them outside of a club in which she has a show - they're devoted to each other, but I felt I should show this little romantic feeling at the beginning - both are dedicated but not showing it too open. I really hope you'll like my version of them, - John in cool clothes, Katarina in slight Hippie-Retro-style stage outfit

Brilliant work! That background looks like it was a pain- but well worth the 'pop' it gives it. Awesome B&W piece.

Incredible! Awesome work. As an author, it's an incredible experience to see your creations through the lens of another artist's picture. And you nailed them!

Can't say enough good stuff about them. Obviously, the technical work is top notch. The biggest thing for me is the overall feel of the piece, the interaction between the two characters, that puts you over the top on this one.

What else can I say? Wow.

The book is finished, has been for some time, and I've so far failed to find an agent. I think I'll just release it as a PDF for free and let people have it.

This picture makes me want to finish the sequel!

Gorgeously detailed - the background must have taken a while?

Yep .. this kind of background is time-soaking like hell it's actually the most time-intense part of the picture.

I really hope so it's always a 50:50 chance if you draw the characters of another one
