Description

Your persistence surprises me... Holding in to your final breath, you claw your way along. You hold onto what was once your world. But now, it belongs to the children. Be glad of the knowledge that your death... will bring their birth!

Listen...... Can you hear it? It is coming. Say your prayers.

Not sure if I've mentioned this before, but Dead Space KICKS ASS all over the place.

This one turned out to be somewhat of a learning experience for me. I was looking to challenge myself to use Photoshop in a way I never really tried before, by focusing more on depth and contrast, painting using a more traditional manner, and experimenting. I think the thing I learned the most was patience - something I rarely exercise - and it definitely cost me a lot of that. I also tried to break myself of the nasty habit of using black and white to shade/tint, so I made a very conscious effort to avoid using either of those two colors anywhere in this. Of course, there are a lot of things that could be better, but in the end I learned a little and that's the good news. :)

Aaaand I just filled my awesomesauce quota for the rest of the week. ^__^

This is just brilliant. I love the moody darkness and contrast of the lighting, and of course it's always epic to see Isaac in a fix!

Cool! :clap:
