Artist's Comments

This is one of four characters that were combined together to create a cover for Gamepro's upcoming Wii Game Guide. Even though the characters are combined together in a way where most of their body will be hidden, Gamepro wanted the characters done head to toe so they could use the full artwork inside the guide.

Line art done by me. Colors by the talented Espen Grundetjern of UDON.

After drawing the sneering expression on Snake they asked me to tone it down a bit, hence the altered face on the right.


You can see the final composited version of the cover posted HERE.

Solid Snake is from Metal Gear Solid and is © Konami

espen's great but i think i prefer the lines on these images
:icont-sla:
Honestly, I hope you don't work again with that colorist :S your lines are so much better. Although I saw in his page many cool stuff, I don't know how could he do something like this :s

wow amayzing!!!!!!!!
:iconchriss2d:
Thanks. They felt that the mad look was too serious for the game cause it's for the Super Smash Bros game and not for Metal Gear.
:iconchriss2d:
Thank you. Well, I can't speak for Espen, but I think he's going for a certain look with these Gamepro covers. These colors are a bit different from some of the other pieces he's colored of mine and I believe it's intentional. Going for that CGI kind of look. I'm sure we'll be working together on jobs in the future and I've got a lot of confidence in his ability. Sorry you weren't as happy with the way this one came out though. You'll love the next one....hopefully:).

XDDDD
Ok, I understand that.
Since Super Smash Bros is more... a game for kids xD
