Description
About Freaking Time.... All I can say about this drawing...I lost track of how much time I put in somewhere after the 40 hour mark.
Anyways, enjoy! This is my first attempt in a few years at producing a serious piece of art!
Made for the request of =gine-10 via my journal contest.
You better like this!

Thanks very much! The pose didn't quite come out as dramatic as I could have made it, but I was too many hours in to do it again so this is the turnout. I still don't like the half assed bg, but that would be my fault.
I'm very happy you enjoyed it anyways! Thanks a bunch!
Maybe I'll take a better picture of it so it doesn't have all the glare off the graphite either... lol.

Whoa, cool! I just love this, my first thought was this 'MwaHaHa' the predator gives in AvP2 after ripping a head off. (I LOVE this laughing, it's beside from the different viewmodes the only reason why I play the predator ocassionally. ). The pic really pays them justice. And you set your priorities right, who cares about marines. Aliens and Predators rock! ;D

I really like the shading on the brick wall. The alien looks so shiny. If aliens didn't freak me out so much, I'd touch it.

Thanks very much. The brick wall turned out 1000 times better than I cared for it to.
The alien is only shiny because my scanner reflected off the graphite...
I don't know how to get a better scan.

Good work, especially the Predator's head. My only suggestion would be for the scanning/editing, not for the drawing itself. The editing in the background shows, taking away from the image. Also, adding just a bit of contrast would make this even better. Otherwise, great job!

Awesome, thank you very very much!
I didn't think anyones eyes would be so sharp... lol
I'm really not sure where I would add contrast in this though... just deciding on that tiny amount of background was hard enough for me.
I guess it's something I'll get more used to as I go.
I'll go touch up my lazy edit job.

Though there's no need to be jealous. Anybody can do it.

Thanks very much!
I've been drawing these guys for like 10 years now. Only reason I did it right. I also started with the predators head in case I ed it up.
Yeah... I probably went over 50... but I lost count so I can't tell.
I was going mental near the end though.
Thanks for the appreciation!
