Haecceity Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) Focus Latin, (Noun) focus m (genitive focī); second declension "hearth, fireplace" Link (8532 x 9867 px) Medium: Digital Art Time: Too long, probably. Tablet: Wacom Bamboo Create Tools: Adobe Photoshop CC, Krita, MyPaint, Inkscape, Adobe Illustrator CC, Corel Painter 2016 So I've found that some part of me really enjoys the 2015 Hau despite my earlier insistence that it looks nothing like G1's. I decided to make a tribute to the "Mask of Fire" after dabbling in some robotic head shapes that played with human facial proportions, stylization and the Golden Ratio. The mask's design was interpreted into a series of angles, with a few stylistic choices like the "mouthplate" reflecting G1 movie designs. I then added some lines based off of the generalized shape of Protector masks, and made the mask transparent (like the Trans-Neon-Orange Mask Of Fire) to better showcase the head geometry beneath it. Anyway, I hope you enjoy. Comments and criticism- or any remark at all, actually- are highly appreciated.

Aanchir Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Nice work! It's impressive how you were able to use straight, geometric lines to recognizably construct a mask that has so many curved contours in real life.

Taka Nuvia Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 It's absolutely great to see some of your art again! I really love the symmetric, geometric approach, that is perfectly balanced out by the colouring. The overall image is incredibly intense and captivating. Quote My art collection topic - updated!

silo Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 This is really cool and professional looking - I especially love how recognizable it is while not looking emotionless and solid. Great work Quote . Kathok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
