Description
HOMIGAHZ FRIGGING DD.--
EDIT:// I actually didn't change as much as I thought I would, just because it didn't seem to need it. I darkened some lines, fixed some shading and highlights, added some more texture and saturated the colours in places. And I added the smudged background. I really wanted to add some blood splatter, and I tried doing to Spark brush trick, but it was too small and it just looked dumb so I didn't bother. >< Cheers. BTW, this is about 50-60% of the original size.
Now equipped with my attractive signature, which is ridiculously hard to do with my right hand. >< Hoyes.
Reproducing Newspaper fonts for two days straight makes Snappy want to suicide.
Anyway, behold Michael C. Hall as television's favourite serial killer, Dexter.
I haven't seen Season 2 yet, so no spoiler-like comments. :k
There's a reason nobody (that I've seen) has drawn this ref from the shoulders down. There's just too many little irritating details.
Also, I was bored with straight realism, so I changed the photos on the newspaper to other promo shots, and made it more of a conceptual piece. That being, Dexter at work and Dexter at work .
Cheers.
I think mini-Dexter behind the blood screen is rather adorable.
Comments and crit are <3
+ The GIMP and computer mouse
+ Going on 40 hours probably (kill me plz)
+3 promo shots used as refs

This is awesome! I love it it so much i'd like to get it tattoo'd on me. My email is invadergrim@gmail.com if you think it would be a good idea. Could you send me the original without the watermark? I'm broke at the moment. Hopefully get a new account soon.

I was irritated they "had" to get rid of her, because now they have nothing set up for next season and he'll have to find some other person to confide in.
