Title: The Collector
Name: Bob MacNeil
Country: USA
Software: Photoshop

A working man, who has the job of finding lost souls for his employer. He mostly works at night due to the fact his appearance sometimes bothers people. His favorite place to search for those in need, is in cemetaries, however he has been seen at such places as reality shows and various religious events. This image was created entirely in Photoshop and can be seen in Expose 1.

Thumbs up from any angle. Just explain the third arm with the white pennant :), or the graveyard location :)

YEAH that is truly worthy of an "Expose" entry it really is.

Thats a really, really fine piece of art work, the detail is extraudinary, the cocnept truly original, and pose exceptional :)

You have brought that character totaly to life, its a wonderfull piece :)

wow, thanks for the response.

I put this image up, because of the new feature Cgtalk offered (the cgportfolio) it's an old image I never thought it would get such a nice response..

For those of you who got a copy it was published in the first Expose

livingrope - I agree, I didn't concern myself so much with the anatomy ( as I should have) I was more interested in portraying a quirky mood... but thanks so much for the 5 stars... I have admired your work for quite some time now, so it's greatly appreciated...

elderberry - I gotta see your pic LOL thanks, yes I did have a blast it came very easy when I did it

Subey - the pennant is a real time archive or database of his findings.. kind of like a ticker tape

Pegahoul, winchester, Spritemare, waheednasi, WBS, Kyena, Abyssis, mykhel, SeifoSid, OZOZOZ, jody - gracias everyone... I really appreciate all the kind comments.. I can't wait to post more at cg talk.....

Nemes - http://bobmacneil.blogspot.com for a step by step walkthrough on how I paint

As someone already said, it's quite unconventional. I like the way it is painted. The character looks funny (in a positive way), his feet seem to be as long as his arms. :D
Nice work.

So what does the white flag mean?
