CgTalk Daily Sketch 866 NO TIME LIMIT Sketch "Modern Vampire"

My participation : Artweaver , 55min
I made it mainly to test Artweaver , a really good freeware I love now.
I’m not sure this is exactly a modern vampire, but it was fun to paint 

Done with Photoshop CS2 and a bit of Painter, about 3 hours.
DeeVad, that’s awesome! The casual expression and the straw is a nice civilized touch.
Eskarina, your work is so exquisite. Love the tiara. Great job!
After not contributing here for a while, today I did 2 of them:

…with this one I was trying to experiment with hard highlights, there are some details that I like but I have to practice a lot yet… Photoshop, 25min yesterday + 45min today = 1h 10min
and the second one:

…I took the photo from google, and it took around 30min in photoshop…
Deevad - great lighting, and good job in his face… I’m envious…
Eskarina - you are beyond envy, hehe, because I can’t even imagine myself doing something like that in a million years… :drool: …by the way you had a different nickname before didn’t you?
I like your one in the metro too, elmasfeo.
I really feel a special style and mood in front of it.
It could be a great style to make an anim like this on a video, with Tvpaint for ex.
Thanks for your comments on my work
eskarina> Good job
Deevad, great concept! and thank you 
Elmasfeo, i’m in love with your little vampire, sooo cute =) (what do mean by different nickname?)
Vivien82, haha, thank you so much! 
I was just about to upload a piece, but realized there might be an issue with nudity on the DSG. Would anyone know for sure? Thanks.
Hello Daniel,
May be if you post just the link to the picture, with a mention : “nudity” it sould sound great.
It’s wise to ask as you done, Imo.
I think Daily sketch responsible poeple will answer you, I’m just a sketcher.
Ah…good idea. Thanks, DeeVad.
Warning: Nudity.

–not necessarily a modern vampire in the sense of ipods and tivo, rather a modern redesign of the creature.
1-1,5 hour. PS CS
I relized that I was painting on the wrong layer, but it was too late. so I left it at this phase.

I had hoped to time this one but I got interrupted constantly, so I could only guess… and very inaccurately at that.
this is still base even now, but I’m posting to force myself tomorrow :p.
edit: I’ll finish this one but not in sketch form, too noobsy for good composition and colour lol.
