This is pretty cool... so this is the kind of stuff you can make with blender hmm. Is the pixel effect part of it? Processed with something else too?

Thanks CD! The pixel effect is entirely Photoshop. Blender was used to make the 3D shapes, colors, light and animation. Without the Photoshop pass it looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/SyUKFMv.png
First thought: it's like Pikachu but hmm, not really... a man getting hit by a punch that pretty much penetrates the length of his body and encircles him in a aura-like veil of violent energy? The hands that envelop him though hmm... somebody kicking him in the nuts from behind?
I'm probably trying to see this from a very superficial standpoint, maybe it's the embrace (and background vortex) of death, maybe it's something sexual, a mind-blowing embrace or similar surge of stimulus, or maybe it really is strange and inexplicable... it'd seem a bit more straight-forward if it weren't for those hands though.
Either way I love the color/rough style. Awesome but... strange...

It's got more of a metaphorical, feelingsy answer, but damn i do love those interpretations, so i'd never say what it really means, hahahahah
However, this is also one of those times where i just let my mind go for it and didn't think too much about the drawing itself, so while i do know what it's trying to say, maybe not even i could really say it. Or maybe even know it fully. Weird to think about, in a way
Surprisingly gender neutral for the eighties hmm, one of the three Highlanders seeeems to be a girl but as for the other two... fascinating how this cover could very much be a lost gem but could also be a very authentic-looking parody/homage, and I can really nae discern which it is. Google give no alternative sources except a retweet on your own post of ditto. Either way though: this is bad-ass. Would've loved to read it if it was real... and ditto if it isn't. Nice.

Aye laddie tis a fine cover indeed! (I made it myself cause the comic never got its third issue.)
A nice break from all that bondage hmm. :)
Love the form, the light, but most of all all the snacks! All in intricate detail. Feels both wholesome and refreshingly different. Beautiful work.
-cd-
thank you very much :D
Don't recognize nearly enough of these guys. :) Finna need to catch up on all them new NG franchises I've been missing out on... dope collage though!
-cd-
Thank you for the comment!! Most of them are from the Art Forum Battle Royale check out that thread:

lol, this was unexpectedly entertaining though! XD Simple but on point details, and those eyes... have really never seen anything like this. :P Simple thing but: made me chuckle.

glad to hear that I actually posted and deleted this before because I messed up on the scale and had to fit it
It does look pretty dark! Interesting effects with the distortion and divide. Feels like the facial detail comes across a bit differently when you zoom in, like it'd be more realistic with a bit more faded/blurred specks of dirt and such, but I like the gritty mood overall. Intense!
-cd-
Yes, it was supposed to be dark :D It's so special :P Thanks :) Well, because with a big zoom you can see more details :) But it's too much zoom, for sure in the animation it will never be like that because it would lagging the animation XD. Thanks again! Great comment! :) I missed you mate :P
Oast Houses hmm, got me Googling all sorts of things here, interesting architecture... this really feels almost like a sight-seeing tour of Kent. A notable place with 9/10 of them numbers, even if one's totally unrelated. And final frame, albeit maybe not all relevant to Kent: nice one.
-cd-
#2 miiiiiight be relevant... How many people from Kent have visited Tashkent?
Love the forms; love the greenery! Really smooth work. Design almost makes me feel like she could've been a humanoid Pokemon... which ain't a bad thing! Looking good!
-cd-
thank you very much :D
Is the chalice he wields in his non-sword arm an item of sorcery or simply a supplement of wine hmm... hard to tell! With the flame effect it seems like it might be more than just a drink. That there's a potential sword in both cups he holdeth.
Never lacking in creativity with these! Solid design too.
