[Roy BURNS]

Gorgeously rendered piece here, the way he's backlit by the fire is so striking. I love Roy, such a strange character.

[Baron "Heinrich" Zemo]

Classic sockhead Zemo. His son is one of my favorite Marvel characters of all time, but I really like ol' Heinrich a lot too. Really cool to see fanart for him. The way the mask contorts to his facial features came out quite nice here, especially those menacing eyes. Nice stuff!

[spiders]

God I love the bizarre round lenses on Nicholas Hammond's Spidey. You rendered them out really nicely.

[Stranger in Metropolis Zone]

You're so real for that description. Love the image too!

[The Shredder]

Oh, I love this design you came up with for Shredder! Very Mirage flavored, but with a few tweaks to make it feel unique. In particular, I dig the movie inspired mask and how his helmet trident arches down over it. Great pose choice too, that splash page is iconic.

[Son of the Mask]

"My bad."

[Edgemaster - Arlokk the Atrocious]

i love arlokk, such a freak of a character

merrivius responds:

Thank you!

[Sub Zero]

Deception Sub-Zero is already so good, but adding the ice arms only serves to make the design even better. Love it!

ColdYuh responds:

Haha thanks boss

[Heartist Hero Headshots]

Hmmm, I recognize all but one. The one with the red hair and pink collar seems vaguely familiar but I cannot put a name to them.

Really, though, props to you for making these characters all feel distinct in terms of their faces. Especially the Punisher, as he's the kind of character who often can just look like a guy when you can't see his logo. Yet you made his face very distinct and instantly recognizable through structure and expression.

Unless that's not him in which case OOPS lmao

HeartisttheArtist responds:

That's Rac Shade, the Changing Man—and I don't blame you for not recognizing him! If he seems vaguely familiar, it might be because you saw him in the same animated short I did. It's called "Shade the Changing Man" and you can find it easily; my art of him here is based directly on it.

I'm glad that you're able to recognize them all, especially Punisher! I have Steve Dillon to thank for making Punisher's face as recognizable as his logo, the slicked-back hair and the blocky frown Dillon drew Punisher with has always stuck with me.
Great eye, you can rest easy that it's him!

[Bob A Feet]

Holiday Special colors Boba my beloved...

Love the Robot Chicken Star Wars reference in the title too. All that aside, I don't know what kind of texture you used for this art but it gives off a painted canvas sort of look. Really suits the colors used!

Snipstein responds:

I use perlin noise in my pieces along with paper texture assets that are free, bought, or custom made myself with anything I find around the house. But usually perlin noise does the trick to give that nice grainy look depending how much you want . :))
