Gabe Newell -- Living Proof that Fat Dudes that Rock xD


Hahaha, first post! ^^ I honestly wasn't familiar with Gabe, but after learning of his involvement in the upcoming sequal to Portal, I had to contribute something.

I usually work old school--starting with a sketch in mechanical pencil (light, easy to erase), and then use acrylic paint to color in layers starting with the back, coming forward. I think this came out decent considering my recent suckage at attempting to draw men :P

  2. OH WOW! This is awesome! Didn't expect an actual painting. I really love how you handle his shape of his muscle structure in his sly smile with his weight. Really excellent work
    by the way did you have any problems scanning this in?

  4. It's cool to see some actual-natural media stuff on the blog. Nice rendering on the gun too.

  5. You're getting better 'n better all the time Hexxy. He looks way too proud of himself in there. Then again, he did just create a PORTAL gun so it might be justified.

  6. Haha! Thanks everyone! ^-^ No big problems scanning this, though when I try to scan things with neon colors, they never come out right :P And Red, if you had an awesome portal gun, you would feel full of win too lol :D
