As requested by Figaro, an Edgar picture. biggrin.gif I think you might have to use your imaginations a bit regarding his chainsaw though, I wasn't quite sure how to draw it while making it look like it was...uh..on, I suppose. So, the big blurry red thing = chainsaw. For those who are wondering, I opted to use the clothes as depicted in Amano's designs rather than those from the sprite...and..apologies for the shoddy background, nothing really came to mind. Also, I couldn't find out what colour his eyes actually are, so sorry if they're not supposed to be green.

A little gory, you have been warned. smile.gif

Not bad, but not as good as your previous work. I hope you don't mind a little constructive criticism, but I find that his shoulders look enormous in comparison to his tiny head.

Sweet. I love the Chainsaw- because it has a chainsaw it is automaticly awesome. It looks like he's hacking away at "dat bizzle X wife, she never let me see teh kids, or teh Money!"

Constructive criticism is always a good thing. smile.gif And his shoulders were even bigger before the picture was cropped...I suppose I've been staring at it for too long to notice. huh.gif I'll try and keep that in mind next time, thanks.

biggrin.gif Once again, you have amazed me.

I love this one (it's probably me favorite of your fanarts); I like the way he looks painted.

And his eyes are actually dark blue (according to sprites and PSX FMV sequences), but eh, I like him with green just as well.

From now on, "I love the texture of these types of pieces" is to be assumed.

The shoulders don't really look so big, it seems the illusion would be due to the armor.
If you're going in for the kill, he should be wearing the goalie mask.
Since the chainsaw is so close to him, you would need to expand the splash radius.
I love that eye. It's amazing how it stands out amongst the rest of the pic.
It looks like he's holding the chainsaw in a weird position.

Those are mostly nit-pick things. Overall, the pic is great.

Once again a great piece.
The only little thing bothering me is the color of the chainsaw : red makes it like Edgar went to the mall and bought himself the only one left there because his was broken...

I didn't include the mask mainly because I wanted to be able to draw his face....sooo...artistic license. smile.gif The chainsaw is at an odd position, you're right. Chalk that up to a badly planned picture on my part...everything beyond the face was sort of added as an afterthought. And the reference picture I used for the chainsaw was red, I suppose it didn't occur to me to check the colour in-game. Doh. eh.gif Thanks for the comments.

This is a really cute fanart!
Well, cute... How can I say that? He's murdering something. *L*
Anyway, the shoulders don't really look that large at all to me.
This is very creative. I never in a million years would have thought to draw this.
Kudos!

Again, I love your CGed art that has the look and feel of pastels.

Your anatomy of Edgar is well defined with shadow and light (rather than line). I like his hair, but geez, he has thin hair (looking at the hair tie). The overall picture is good, but I find thatqthe forms start gettingutoo fuzzy towards the bottom where I have trouble making out what things are supposed to be (I look at ehe picture first, then }ook at the info).

Have you checked out my Chainsawin' Edgar?eIt has a different feele(kinda comical, I suppose).
