“If you order now, I’ll throw in a second beatin’ absolutely free..”

Sup ladies and gents.

With what time I had this week I finally got around to finishing the colors for the Scout wallpaper.  During the course of laying down the colors, I had some issues recreating the sketchy shaded effect that I had with the Spy.  I’m not sure why, but I just couldn’t pull it off as well.  Largely because I forgot which filters to use where and how.  Silly me.  Here’s what I was coming up with using the shading method that I used on the spy:

Yeah…it totally wasn’t coming out as well as I planned.  I started feeling the way I lined up the shadows on the original.  So I went back to that one and worked out some other line issues across the board.  I still don’t know what it was that just wasn’t working out with the textured shading.  I’ll probably have to look into it more to find out what was going on.

Basically I’ve got the Scout class in both the Red and Blu (The “E” is supposed to be missing.) flavors below.

I know I promised a double feature, but in order for me to get this post ready ahead of time, I had to skimp on working on my other project since I’m goin’ to Vegas this week:  “Loose women, money, and alcohol.  The way life should be.”

I’ll see you kids next week.  I might have some photos from Vegas. We’ll see.

I’m out.

    I hate to throw chip, but his face…I dunno, it looks like Baby Herman from Roger Rabbit. Kinda bothers me I guess :(

    Nice choice for super simple backgrounds though. I hate desktops with tons of shit all over the place and you can’t even see icons
