Artist's Comments

Pencils taken to photoshop, 2ish hours pencils. The photoshopping took me from 9pm-5am. Whatever that is. I dunno if I'll submit a prints version. Would have to work out my paypal again and then set up prints here, and thus far I don't seem to have enough people caring to make such work profitable. Course the amount of work I'm puttin' into stuff isn't profitable as is...in personal satisfaction it is I guess. God I love my art. Thank you Alan Moore, you make me want to stay an artist.

Have you heard about the legal battle that Fox is pushing to have the Watchmen movie held off from its release date? All because they feel they have a stake in the movie's makings? I'm not really entrenched in the evidence to their claims myself, though from what I understand its all hollywood jargon that makes little sense in the first place, but that's hollywood for you. I will however join in the boycott of all things Fox related if they keep the Watchmen from happening.
This includes what I'm assuming to be a mediocre X-men: Origins movie, at least when compared to the new plateau of hero movies being released.

Anyway, I have a question for you all, so do please respond if you could be so kind. Is this good enough to be a print to be sold? I personally think so, but I don't get enough responses to think my beliefs are validated.

After checking out the Prints shop, I would say that this would do alright there.

I know I'm not an artist-type, but I have a critique anyway: Ozymandias' eyes look somewhat strange to me. His left eye is noticeably higher than his right. The same applies to the iris of the left eye (the iris of the right eye is centered, like he's looking ahead, whereas the left eye looks like it's rolling up). You may want to consider fixing it before putting it up for print.

Other than that, however, everything else looks pretty sharp, particularly Nite Owl and Rorschach (you did a nice job on their outfits and poses). Dr. Manhattan is pretty good, too; I like how how he's creating ball of energy (or perhaps a tiny universe?) with a "meh" expression on his face. It subtly says "I'm Dr-Mothaluvin-Manhattan! I'm practically God! This is nothing!"

So yeah, I wouldn't see the harm in submitting this as a print. Heck, you may be able to benefit from the buzz surrounding the upcoming movie. It's worth a shot.

I guess I should put something profound here like everybody else, but where's the fun in that?

Thanks Ray...I didn't know you'd read the Watchmen, recently enjoyed it myself after finally finding it. Was sold out forever. Really felt inspired...and yes, Ozymandias has been bothering me, but I couldn't place why exactly. Really reminded me more of Steward Small from SNL than Veidt himself. Well that then is one vote for Print...and there are other things I still need to fix if I submit it to print, but I'm looking for more responses.

DA will take down fan art prints. if you want to sell this you'd have to do it somewhere else. i might buy one if you do, though.

also, Love your Rorschach. <3
:iconbrokenzen:
Huh, didn't know that. Thanks Amber. And thankyou for the kind compliment on Rorschach, he took the longest.

I never read the entire thing, but Brian let me read his copy one time while we were coming home from Youth Councils one year. I got the gist of the overall plot from its Wikipedia article.
