Combat Kong in Photoshop | Digital Character Drawing

Obviously it all started with watching a trailer of a coming new release of Planets of the Apes in which genetically enhanced apes are battling men with strength and wits. I saw in the trailer, a large gorilla, standing on both of his feet, helping to load an artillery gun, which gave me the idea of one wielding a machine gun. So here it is.


I really enjoyed this one, especially when I was drawing on my Cintiq. So this can be a burnt-in for my newly acquired gadget that I am pretty please about. It gets tiring to draw on a raised platform at first but I will get used to it. I placed a cushion below my elbow so I could rest my arm when I draw. That works very well. The screen doesn't heat up too much though it gets just a little warm but not uncomfortable. I used the canvas rotation to turn the canvas at an angle more for comfort. I could turn the Cintiq too if I wanted.
