McGibs Fanart

Raslin

Man, haven't posted in here in a while, now have I?

Well, I was on a McGibs binge today, looked through his gallaries, etc, and really liked it. So, I figured what better way to honor a great artist than by making subpar art in a different art style mimicking something he did?

Edit: Forgot some essentials. I think the polycount was ~3500 tri's, but I didn't optimize most things, I could shave quite a few off there. A couple things were left for potential textures, but not much. Sights were slightly edited, with feedback by McGibs.

I want to, but my texturing and UV skills are subpar at best. I'll probably come back to it to texture it, after I've practiced more on more simple UV/textures.

What about texturing it based off of McGibs' original paintings? It wouldn't be ultra-realistic looking, but then, that would be the point. I think the end result would ooze a nice amount of style.

EDIT for syntax

That was actually my plan, when I can manage to do it well
