Description
It started as a random scribble.. it ended quite more detailed than what I expected it to. o_ΓThis is Wikus Van Der Merwe, from the movie District 9. Probably one of the best movies so far since LOTR. Next to BrΓΌno. <3
Time: roughly 4-5 hours.

face color, i dont find a real color for the face and the beard

I find it better to kind of give it a base color, and then get the more natural color from whatever lighting is in the picture. Lights give different colors on the skin..
With hair/beard, it is often nice to use different colors, one base, and several different shades of darker and lighter hairs.

Cool! I like how you mixed Wikus changing into a prawn with something Sharlto Copley might wear...or I guess probably something Wikus would wear casually too. Even as he's changing into a prawn...
It's a lovely artwork too! Cool!

Thanks a lot!
Yeah, I did somewhat a mix between Sharlto and Wikus, African t-shirts are so fresh..

They are so cool right now...I love the flag design of South Africa, it is really beautiful and colorful.
I tried a version of the SA flag design for one of my characters (South Afrikaner of course) too. I really love how you made yours looked "lived in"-a well-loved shirt!

Yeah, The South African flag is really colorful and nice.
