Description If anyone, by any chance, happened to read my last journal... this is the piece I was talking about. It is a fan-art piece for one of my all time favorite games Thief: Deadly Shadows. There is talk that Thief 4 is in the making... I can't wait!
The main inspiration for this was a poster for the game I have on my wall this is the picture [link] well a part of it, the original poster has a lot more background and the rest of his body. I wanted to make it as similar to the original poster as I could, I hope I managed to that. If you want to, you can see the details here ---> [link]
And if you're wondering... yes, his right eye IS green... it's mechanical
I have an unhealthy crush on Garrett the Hunk, that's his name for those unfamiliar with the game... Ok that's not really his name... it's just Garrett, but he is a damn hunk in my eyes I tend to have crushes on random cartoon and game characters, especially the ones wearing hoods I'm nuts, sue me.... Though I know each and every one of you out there has a crush on some fictional character whether you like to admitt it or not you liars you

Model ~syccas-stock [link] buildings in the background ~Giltintur [link] [link] [link] *gild-a-stock [link] stone road ~XutopiAStock (account closed) sky ~Tash-stock [link] textures ~Fennja-Design [link] the stone wall behind Garrett is courtesy of my cousin ~FrozenWinterTear from one of our trips ... the cloak was completely hand painted, as well as as the fog and the arrow tip, the model was completely repainted (the visible part of him at least) and the lighting as well...

oh and may I add, while drawing the cape I accidentally clicked the wretched little red X button at the top right of the screen, and guess what ... yeah... I don't even need to explain the rest...

hope you like it though, it was lots of fun to do

Thanks a lot, I'm glad you like it

Yes, the Thief series is awesome, it's by far one of my all time favorite video game series. Deadly Shadows is my favorite one, only because it's the first one I discovered, and it grew on me pretty quickly. Then I went back and got the first two parts and just fell completely in love.

Can't wait for the Thief 4... I've been waiting for years for some news about it. It seems that we could see a special reveal in the coming months. I'm beyond excited
Sorry for babbling XD... I do that a lot when it comes to Thief/Garrett

Thanks again!

Youve done so much work to this it looks more like a painting that a manip (not a bad thing if that was your aim), still its an incredible piece!

d1sasterp1ece9 In reply to Bracey100 [2012-06-09 22:30:53 +0000 UTC]

Actually, it was intentional. I wanted to make this as close to the original poster as possible, but using photo manipulation instead of just making an exact copy of the original poster by digitally painting it. I did do a fair amount of painting in it but most of the work done is straight up photo manipulation, blending images together, adding different colors and textures to tie it all together like in the poster, etc.

Thank you for taking the time to look and comment

Yes much was over-painted so it sort of cheats the eyes I think even I will think it's a painting when I go back to this in a few years.

Thank you

Thought this was a straight up digital painting first of all. The background is really good, again, awesome work you.

d1sasterp1ece9 In reply to Kharnage [2010-10-18 16:31:39 +0000 UTC]

I wish... I don't think I could paint something like this in a gazillion years. I think the whole repainting deal makes it look like a digital painting, after all I had to change the lighting on the model completely since he was lit from the top left and there were really sharp shadows... it was such a pain in the ass.
Spank you for the compliment it is always welcome

haha, I'm sure he won't mind I really want to make more packs with him but we never found the time this summer, maybe I can use some of the regular photos I've taken during archer camp ^^
there's definitely a pack of a female archer to come

d1sasterp1ece9 In reply to syccas-stock [2010-10-18 16:26:29 +0000 UTC]

Ooh, female archers ... yes, I think dA really needs a lot more stock like that, girls in armors, with crossbows and swords and whatnot... lately I have the impression that every stock photo looks the same, I think a bit variety wouldn't hurt. After all who doesn't love strong female characters

yeah, the usual female stock is long flowy dress - the usual male stock is tough warrior ^^
