I have an alternate version of the Fifty-Fifty pose I presented on JSVB yesterday. It's more "meme-like", if that's a word.
I made the rookie mistake of composing the artwork on a white background, so the colours were all balanced for that. When I decided I wanted a cheesy Star Trek rock face to be the background, its dark geometry threw all the colours out of whack, and in my opinion I over-rendered the image to make my corrections. The new version of Corel Painter arrived, so I wanted to try out its new digital brushes. Yesterday's picture took the brunt of my experimentation.
So this version is a bit cleaner, and the tag line amuses me. I rotoscoped an existing Star Trek model and composited my brother-in-law's head on top. That allowed me to work pretty fast, since I'd somehow forgotten that yesterday was the big anniversary and I wanted to make the deadline.
