Dr.Hyde


*Update- it may not come across clearly but the hand in the black area is some hapless victim obscured by his shadow.
Yet another illustration. The Avalanche blog topic is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. I had this good idea for a composition but I get so bored trying to do full backgrounds so this is as close as I'll probably get. I hope it's not too dark it looks okay on one screen and dark on another.

Absolutely LOVE the lighting!

I think this is great, but for some reason the shadow bugs me. It kind of looks like the hand of the shadow is reaching up, not lying flat on the ground. Knowing your skill, I'm assuming it's supposed to be that way?

I personally think the background is just as it needs to be. I hope you don't mind an artist who isn't a workmate commenting on your blog, but your blog is the fun part of my day.
