I hope starting a thread for my pictures here is okay.
Been trying to do some Hellboy/BPRD fan art, which i wanted to share. I'm a little nervous because there are so many talented peeps here already, so i hope you all like.
Daimio to start with i think...
I'll work it some more probably.
Kate next i think.

Ah thanks guys i'm glad you like the Daimio.
Lobster: yeah that's Beat Takeshi. I mentioned in the other thread that these were photomanipulations, but i forgot to say so here. I used Beat's head and a whole bunch of different stuff for the body. Not as difficult as Kate tho, who was an absolute NIGHTMARE to do.

Really amazingly cool, pimpernel! So subtle, like, well, a spectacularly real Daimio pic. I heard stuff about British tabloids, but to the rag that covers this I really MUST subscribe...
Chillingly good stuff besides Mignola, Slint, M, Knut and really big chunks of tinfoil?Been called a 'good egg'. Been told to rock, been told to steady myself. Been told to (please) be goin' places.
Half sunk in the mud, with one eye showing / a cracked smile and hair still growing /
your hands miles apart, as if they'd never met / you were the happiest I'd seen you yet. ~ (full) lyrics to 'Exhume' by Bedhead.

Thanks Kees.
Here is Kate...
You would think that with a hundred or so seasons of Stargate under her belt there would be one usable picture or screencap of Amanda Tapping wearing fatigues. Turns out no, so i had to make them from scratch. Meh.
Next up: Ms Sherman. Or maybe Panya.

Here's Liz and Abe...
I'm not really trying to stick to the movies with these, so i didn't use pictures of those actors as some of them don't really fit my idea of the characters. I suppose they are based more on the comics/how i would have done the movies, if that makes sense.

These are so fun! I really like what you've done with the backgrounds and the heavy chiaroscuro that echoes Mignola's artwork.

Hah, these are great! Nice job on all of them, but Abe is especially cool.
Any plans for making any other characters like this?

Those are all really cool, Simon :D and I agree: the BG really help to build the mood on each character and to bind it to Mignola's look&feel :)
Cheers,
Francesco
