CL and I started a picture a while back, and I got wrapped up in my adventure game topic, and then injured my wrist by having bad computer habits, so it's actually been several months since we started work on this image. I've taught myself a lot more about Photoshop now, and I think it shows pretty well. This is the first full pic I've completed since the Samus collab, so it's been quite a while. Here's the pic:



I did almost all of the colors and the majority of the background yesterday. The central subject's lines were CL's, they haven't been modified but I added onto them to complete the shadowing and dimensions a bit (particularily in the mouth/around the eyes). It was cool to coach her a bit on how to make it more aggressive looking.

Here's a concept sketch I did to give CL a composition guide for how I thought the picture should look. It wasn't based on the original design, hence the change in styles:



Only thing the piece is missing is a title. Anyone got any suggestions for an awesome title? Once it's got a title, I intend to put the image up on DeviantArt with poster-size prints for sale (the image was drawn at 5000 x 5000 pixels, and can print very large).

Quote:
PRINTS ARE NOW AVAILABLE

15 x 15 inch prints available here:
From His Scaly Maw Poster from Zazzle.com (direct link)

or

Psytronic: Home: Zazzle.com Gallery

The 15x15 size is $13.95 USD plus shipping. You should be able to choose from different print formats if you want a photo gloss coat or if you want it on canvas, for an increase in price. The basic format should be cool, though.

I checked out the options for prints on DA, and determined they cost too freaking much. Absurd amount of markup that I'm not even going to pretend to understand, and I couldn't set my own dimensions (I know it's not hard to crop paper, I used to do it professionally).

Please don't think I'm trying to spam the place, guys, as much as I'd love to make money off of this kind of thing I'm just putting this crap up for the novelty of possibly getting my art on your walls

A title? Hmmmmm...

...sorry, but the only thing that springs to mind is 'ZOLATTACK!!'. Pretty feeble, I know.

Awesome work, guys. Man.

Wow, you guys are so great when you collaborate. I personally like this one better than the Samus one. The colors and textures...it's really amazing.

Incidentally, I'm buying the hell out of this poster. Hell, I'd be half-tempted to get a poster of your Metroid collaboration, and I don't even like Metroid all that much.

Nintendo doesn't recognize the awesome, when it's right under their noses. I just read an interview with Aonuma where he said they'd planned on originally making the Zora an antagonistic race of mer-men, which I assumed means more like the original design. Apparently, the decision to make their princess one of the sages lead to a redesign of the race. Although, god knows why they still called them Zoras if they hadn't even intended to change them in the first place. It seems obvious that the deku scrubs were originally octoroks.
