done in photoshop cs2 3hrs into 4:16mins music from the phantom menace. my first recording of a painting. check out my other stuff: abovocipher.deviantart.com
omfg!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the face was photorealistic maaaaaaaaaan, and the saber freaking too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! daaaaaamn..... thats just amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing!!!!!!!
duel of the fates has become a serious cliche for star wars videos, but since it's darth maul and the music actually applies to him, i dont mind. great work!
wonder what itd look like if it were in that area where Darth Maul was cut in half and with the huge power conduits (beams of light in ep. 1)thatll look tight
I'm officially submitting my application for being your padawan. Teach me, Master! For I am willing! (Insert understatement about force being strong with this one here)
very nice, I would say lithograph quality, and you probably did it in a fraction of the time that the so called " officially licensed artists" did. very nice highlighting work, and an excellent use of layers
this piece was frigging awesome!!!! but i see one thing. his mouth makes him look too much like a vampire. i mean, he looks like a vampire already but hes just too much vampire-y
Mate !!! this is unfucking believaable the attention 2 detail is awesome everything is great well done ! props. p.s i love the way u inc the glow of the lightsaber on his cloak. mint !
the one i have is a wacom intuos 3, thats the only way i can draw like that in photoshop. i tried with the mouse and it just doesnt cut it. thanks for the comment
i think that you can try elements, i dont really know too much about it. you might check out some older photoshops. i know quite a few established artists use photoshop 7. there's also some pretty good equivalents to digital painting that might be cheaper. its pretty much what you can get used to.
hey, im thinking about buying photoshop, been lookin around and photoshop elements is way cheaper. i want to draw with it too, not really photos and stuff. what would you recommend? just looking for an opinion thx -Kris

Amazing, one of the best works of Maul ive ever seen.

omfg!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the face was photorealistic maaaaaaaaaan, and the saber freaking too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! daaaaaamn..... thats just amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing!!!!!!!

Actually, if you use a ruler on the visible portion of the handle, the rear blade is quite a bit off. Still, it's a fantastic piece!
