Description


  • The concept:
Here’s the news paper article. Even in 2200, newspapers are still printed in black and white. :


The only part that stayed intact after the accident is his right eye. Now, instead of going to bed at night, he has to go to the nearest recharge center with hundreds of real androids.
  • The process:
It took exactly 7 days to finish. I started on Saturday January 13th and called it done on Saturday 20th. I worked on it every evening after school, about 2 hours each. If you want to, you can take a look at the WIP:
Android - Crazyboy Wip-

The thing that I had most problems with was the background. The lack of inspiration mainly.

Here are some close-ups:

the image itself is excellent, get yourself a blasted tablet already!:)(i'm not being cynical or rude in any way, you'd do wonders with it)

mefisto: thank you! , the hand on the chest is for....well, I don't really know. androids do that when they recharge, I decided it. But for what purpose? I don't know lol

That's totally awesome. The first thing I thought when i saw them clutching their chests that maybe the androids had all lost something dear to them. We were never made to be machines, we were meant to feel. This picture has such emotion, bittersweet :)

dejanira: You'Re probably right about the principal android: he's a human. But all the other ones in the background are real androids so they are not meant to feel anything, they're just machines. But, the real guy as lost a lot of things. Thanks!
Thank you Madanaple :)
Mysticcat: Of course I accept every comment/critic/idea people tell me. That's why this work has such nice feedback! it's the magical trick: listen to people'S opinion!
Thank you for following my wip!

As Carlos mentioned the metalllic looks is excellent

Great handling of the background for sense of depth

I watched you develope this from start to finish in your wip, I didn't comment there as I'm not the strongest painter. I really like what you've done. You've included a backstory to support you image, and the image is well done. Good stuff. At this rate your works are going to excell and it's going to be hard to keep up with you. :)

lolita: Thanks for the compliment! I don't want to sound ignorant but; what is a GT?

Blanca: You have a very good french, it's surprising!
Mais tu sais, tu peux me tutoyer. "tutoyer" means using "tu" instead of "vous". It's too formal, we're the same age Thank you!

Diane: Thank you! :)

Anyway you are improving a lot. Good concept and metal-textures. You could try experiment more with light and shadows in your next artworks. Myself just discovered how much power the shading has for an artwork. But well done indeed! :)

Nice work JR, Concept is sound, execution is good.

I'd like to have seen more colours reflected in the metal (it's very blue) but I see what you were doing.

BTW mate, newspapers have been printed in colour since the early 90's. (They also use hyphens to not leave huge gaps in the copy. Sorry, used to work for one.) ;)

It's not the image i like its moreso the story attached to it. I like the concept. :)
