You have an uncommon way to work: most people would have done a sketch first, apply some basic colors and so on. You didn't studied art, do you?

I don't know. Something doesn't add up.

The colors are spot-on, and I mean hexadecimal here, so you are not eyeballing it. Your version is a little different in its shape, but it isn't so difficult to modify the drawing and select the colors to suit.

Your method is also questionable. Working on it in parts like that . . . well, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. I know how paintovers are done, and although the individual parts are shifted around, the colors give it away.

This and your black and white piece are not of the same quality of your other pictures, and if that is to be taken to mean that using photo "reference" as a crux enhances your work, it would be better to learn to dissociate your work from them.

If you posted this in places like conceptart or eatpoo, you might not find people so believing. I'd really like you to prove me wrong, but I'll say again this work is suspicious.

of course they would be spot on i said i use the eyedropper and then i just eyeball some other colors especially when getting darker/lighter variations. go look at my deviantart account if you haven't. theres a whole bunch of things there. i have always worked on things in parts because thats just how i've always done it. i'm working my way up to not needing a reference to do something like this.

and, i've pretty much lost care in if people think its just some photo edit. all they can do is sit on their ass saying "omg that pic is so not real cause im such an expert on all this so i know that that isnt real"

Oh well, i use the same "tecnique" when i do hand drawing. The only drawback is that the slightest error you make now, could lead to bigger proportions error later. But yeah, probably you already know that :P
