Description
Original character to be part of my story, Vikriss. A psychotic forsaken demon with an addiction to dark magic. Of his vast magic, one ability is possessing spirits of the dead to do whatever he wills as well as dispersing spirits into powerful bursts of energy. When engaging in a battle, he always powers up his sword by sacrificing souls for added damage.----------
So all those ideas are planned to go in the final render, might give out a more detailed bio of him if people are actually interested.
I'll be trying a different approach to painting than my usual, starting with a tinted B&W render followed by color layers and final touch-ups.
- Photoshop CS3

That's pretty awesome.. I like the simple background, it doesn't draw attention away from the figure. The dark tones are beautiful too! I love it. x]

I really like how this one is shaping up. Just the way Vikriss is standing, with the curve of his torso, brings out the type of character he is. It almost tells you everything coupled with the gleeful smile on his face. The wings and tail will certainly add to that once they are filled out. Great casting shadow too.
I think the technique you have chosen will definitely give you the sensibility you need to keep the colour tones low (if that's your intention) and allow you to retain the intensity of it.

Very nice. I don't understand how you make a piece of art like this, but you certainly seem to know the Photoshop language. Good job.

Please, no nicknames. Just thanks.
And I finally learned that BW means black and white...
I'm completely clueless on layers though. And Photoshop CS makes it look hard.

I really like how you've worked with this monochromatic scheme and pushed and pulled the shadows+whites, it looks really good
