Thanks! Been really busy with work lately... which is good, but has left me with little to no time for my own projects.

Awesome as usual!
Do you have videostream of your work?
I'd like to see how do you render surfaces like his arm. Airbrush?

Thanks! No videostreams I'm afraid... arm was painted with the standard photoshop soft brush and standard hard edge brush, both at low opacity and build up the tones.
Cheers!

Ok! Thanks for reply.
Probably, I didn`t pay proper attention to details.

I was movie-deprived as a kid, and have spent the last few years catching up on everything i missed in the '80s. Β This was definitely a highlight, along with the Goonies, Ice Pirates, Zardoz...

I too, grew up with hardly any movies and no TV.... probably part of the reason I watch so many now and love TV shows so much
Never could get myself to watch Zardoz though

Ah, gotcha. Β I won't bore you with specific examples of how strange it is. Β I'll just say it's a unique relic that i feel is worthy of study.

Best bad movie I ever saw.. even beat out Big Trouble in Little China, and that's saying something.
Plus, Also, Too, Besides - how do you top Queen doing your soundtrack?
Pretty sure I saw something recently that it was being refurbished and put out on Blu Ray for it's 30th [?] anniversary. Β Jesus, I'm getting old.
One last piece of seriously useless trivia. Β When I got my first Old-Guy-Up-The-Poopshute-Pictorial, the dude who did it was named, no shit, Mingh. Β So, natch, I called him Mingh the Merciless [which I totally had to explain]. Β I also accused him of sending an entire camera crew up my bunghole, but that's another story.
Ennn-ee-weigh..
As always, a treat and a pleasure.
Plus, look at all the harkening back I get to do.

I'll have to keep my eye out for the 30th anniversary edition, though I have a DVD and Bluray copy already.
Will avoid your friend Mingh though, if I possibly can!!
Cheers man!

As long as 'F' isn't the grade you are giving me

Not hardly. Youth drawing is a great nostalgia trip. I'm old enough to have seen Flash Gordon in the theater.

I really have to admire that you take the time to reply to every comment, even as incredibly popular as you are. It's very humble, and I think you're great.
A comparison suddenly occurred to me just now..... FLASH..................... AA-Ahhhhhhh!!!! ..... Duck Tales...... WOO WOO!!!!
By the way, I also saw an anime in 2009 which actually had a clear satire of the Flash song whenever a certain character appeared. It was called "M'Academie Wasshoi". It's pretty good, definitely in the top 5 or 10%.

No love for Brian on this poster?

None on the poster, but plenty in my heart

Not to mention Zarkov. And the main hawkman guy, with the big scraggly beard. Those 2 are awesome too.

Oh wait, that's what he meant by Brian. Prince Vultan PLAYED by Brian Blessed. Look up some of the things Brian Blessed has done since, he's quite a character in real life.
