Some eight hours this weekend, all painted in photoshop. I had a brainwave at work, and did a little inch by inch thumbnail of this image. Went home, after boozing and whatnot... and painted it. I was originally going to do it in acrylics, but pussed out in the end. I used the old photos of munitions tests on fruit and a guy standing in a bidness suit as ref. I stuck with the color scheme of the fruit being shot, and used the splatter texture from the photo because at a distance, I wanted it to read like that.

the pinstripes are genius, and that's probably the best render of an apple I've ever seen.

and definitely his hand which rest on his pants.
:iconrushwolf:
Great lighting and gesture on it. The only thing that I see that could might improve it is some more highlights on the mist and or more blur trails.


Love the rendering on the suit. More than excellent work man.
