Title: Santa ©2006 Henno Drop
Name: Henno Drop
Country: Netherlands
Software: BodyPaint, CINEMA 4D, Photoshop

I did this image for christmas last year. I still like it, so it’s my first portfolio image.

Santa was inspired bij the Coca Cola paintings by Norman Rockwell of the fourties and fifties. I tried to capture his friendly but also slightly naughty expression.

Critique and comments welcome.
Thanks for watching

I think you captured that very well.
The disembodied head makes it a bit more humorous but also a little creepy at the same time.
