One more for Alien Day (4/26) - this is technically an Aliens vs Predator piece, but it's one of my personal favorites of my full-color AvP work. This is called I STILL WIN, from 2013. We all know that some Predators are sore losers (and hey, who wouldn't be angry if they'd been glued to a wall and force-fed a bug egg?), and this guy is no exception. There will be a hive-shattering KABOOM. That is all.
I made this with ink, watercolor and colored pencil. The primary purpose for this artwork was to use green and violet luminosity as light sources.
While there's a lot of toy design theory I'd imagine @therobotmonster could get a good post out of, it's always funny when an action figure has a "self-destruct" action feature, because it's like, "Action Feature: He Fucking Dies"
Like, take this MotU packaging pic from the excellent Battle Ram:
"This guy you're going to buy goes down like a bitch! That's what he does! That's his action feature!"
Also from Battle Ram, corporate needs you to find the difference between these two pictures:
