snwbrdr - Abominable Snowman

Hi there,

Guess I'm a tad on the late side here, but I'm gonna give it a try.
I hope I can finish it within the weekend.

Here's my initial sketch:

Very basic coloring:

I like it! He is so furious!

Thank you!

Replaced his bottom snow-ball with twiggy legs and detailed the icebears some more.

uahahahah! Good idea!
It could be the nemesis of Santa Claus :)

Took me quite some time figuring out how to make a decent furry bearskin, but I think this'll work.
(Also playing Anno 1404 isn't helping getting this done in time..:o)

Well, it's not at all going the way I wanted it to go, so I don't think I will finish this one.
Just wondering: are photographs permitted in 'digital painting'? Either manipulated as a base for your subject or as texture on, well, let's say; big icy walls? Or shoud that only be used in matte paintings?

This is what I have so far, going to bike in the woods now, maybe continue later this afternoon.
