boris




"boris"


Much of my time over the last month has been occupied by a little game called Fallout 3. Yes, I know I'm a year late.

Anyway, I watched my brother play this game, and I tried it and decided to start my own game. I didn't want to make my character look like me, because that's boring. So I made the creepiest person I could. Enter boris. I forgot to capitalize his name when I first made him, so I just leave it lowercase.

I dragged all the bars to adjust the facial features either all the way to the left or all the way to the right, so I could make the most ridiculous looking person possible. For example, making the eyes huge and spacing them apart way too much. And giving him a mustache. And making him balding. And giving him angry eyebrows. And a "Shady Hat". He's also a cannibal, but Charon and Dogmeat don't judge him for it.

In the game he has square-ish glasses, since I can't seem to find old man rapist glasses anywhere in the Capital Wasteland. But that's where I used my art skill to change something.

Anyway, I don't know if I made it "creepy" enough, although I might introduce him regularly into my paintings, he's weird looking, which is good from a drawing perspective.

Note- the photos are a bit too light on the edges, since it was really bright in the room I took them.

Some Olds

A few older artworks that I thought I'd post, since I haven't had access to a scanner lately and haven't posted anything in a while. I am working on new artwork, but at the moment my scanner/printer is in a corner somewhere since I just re-painted and re-arranged my room. So here...






I'm also working on another "head" sculpture similar to the others I have posted, although I've hit a lazy streak lately and am distracted by Fallout 3 and working on other paintings.
