A quick 30 minute Photoshop speed paint of a judge... NOT Dredd as I am not a great fan of his!!!

Comments always welcome as you are to visit my updated website...

I like the Photoshop sketch work. Can I make one comment on your site, though? There's horizontal scrolling going on and my monitor's not too shabby (widescreen laptop) - not sure if you've worked up the layout on larger screen res? It really doesn't help people browsing - I'd suggest a gallery plugin of some sort or a standard vertical scrolling layout.

I've been trying to process this statement for a few days, please help me out!

(Sorry to - potentially - derail thread, but I honestly am a little baffled as to why you'd like Judges in general, but not Dredd in particular!)

I am of an age when I remember Dredd in his early days and I have to say I much prefer the original character/style, the Bolland, the McMahon, the stories, Cursed earth, The day the Law died, Judge Child etc. etc. in the late 70's/early 80's to the more modern versions...

It must be an age thing!

Hopefully this doesn't show lack of respect to judges???

Your painted technique, when applied to Megacity's finest, reminds me of Steve Yeowell's rare shots at Dredd. conceptboy. What that approach loses in precision and detail, it makes up for with fluidity and dynamism:

Not sure whats going on here!!


Again a speed paint in PS... custom brushes etc.  Sadly boredom got to me and that was that!

I think I need to get out more!!

Hi Everyone,

Got some good news today, got my old job back at Parcel Force. The last seven months on the dole are something I never want to repeat.

Cheers!!

Nice one Mark! If it's any consolation, you've certainly put the time to good use and your art, while great to start with, has improved loads  :)

Seconded. Congrats Chilly but I'll miss to hell your amazing work appearing every day :O

Well done Mark - I was on the dole for nearly a year and was probably the most depressing time of my life - painting kept me from going stir crazy.
