by
Liam Mahon,
What a nutter :) but he was a Legend and done a lot of good for wildlife conservation.
he is up catching the big ones in the sky now... :D Crikey you got a big one there steve !
I hope he get's as much as a from my entertainment from my picture as I did from his wacky shows. RIP steve.
Many hours maybe 3.
Panted in photoshop cs with a tablet.
took a long time to get the face likeness and the big salty.
added a grain effect at the end to soften the image.
I hope ya like it.

Argh!! I hate painting real people. I know this doesn't look like him ARGH. And I know it is very BAD painting, Steve will haunt me for this, I know it. He say "Relm! You make me look weird! Shame! You are fan you should do better!". But really the only person I can paint to look good is James Dean. Oh well, here it is... 2 hours, PS. Famous photo reference used. I paint this because people view him as only liking crocodiles and big things, but I think he liked the cute and fuzzy as well and had a soft side. I love cats!

Two and a half hours in Photoshop with a tablet. Plus about an extra half hour just spent flipping between Photoshop and Google. I forgot which photos were the main refrence but here is the finished product anyway.

I tried to go for something soft and peaceful. Almost like heaven. I originally wanted to do something where he was smiling seeing as he smiled alot but given the fact that he has died I thought peaceful and somber was a better route.
P.S. Relm, I think the face was done very nicely. I believe that if he were to come back and haunt you it would be to thank you rather then berate you. :)
good work relm .. I think its very good.
:)
ps. i like your new picture I take it your a big dean fan?
Yes I am a huge Dean fan. And thanks on the croc picture. I could have spent more time on it to make it better, but I just was lazy and didn't feel like it. It was more of an experiment than anything , a different painting method. :) I still really like my tiger cub, he looks all distorted but SO cute!!! <3
Silken good job on that! I really love the feeling of it and that crocodile in the sky!

wow amazing dude!
These are really beautiful. It'd kind of be a neat thing if Terri Irwin could see the tribute that you folks have made.
