Artist's Comments

Ive been working on this for a while now,
I want to add a back ground to complete a sort of mood that I had in mind when drawing this.
Leon is not my favorate R.E. character, mainly because he appears so clean cut and preped out, so with that in mind i tried to transform him into a more realistic version of what one would expect to see in some one battle hardend from constant battling with zombies and tyrants,
Its also represtitive of a more drawn out story based on the 2nd game that I have in my head.

Done traditionaly (pencil/ink) first and then heavy photo shop work was done, However it still has much of the same elements as the original.
I really enjoyed coloring this (sort of an expirment), and really feel good about the out come.
I'm really glad there are so many great artists on here to study, as far as coloring aspects and over all composition go.

Heres the original: [link]

Let the strands of creation capture you,
see the splendor of that which is real,
but still be memorized by the possibility,
Let love, frustration, and sadness fill you,
and take you away on a journey

Thanks allot man!
Other artists can pump out a better coloring job in less time, I know this, but for some reason I really enjoyed spending time on this, i work in sperts you see.
Anyways, i like how it turned out, i wanted to color it my way and i think i did that.
