Guido's HoS/Infestastion Prime

OMP. Look. I got to color this. Thank you, thank you, thank you . I have loved this picture from the first time I saw it. And the fact that Guido let me practice on it is such a huge deal to me. He is one of my main top Art Gods. I am so, so grateful.

As always, I wish I'd done better.

But the things I did that I liked are:
--Ye olde complimentary colored pencil juicy bits trick.
I actually put bright green on the tops of all the bits of glop on him. It was almost a joke at first, but then I did the face, and went to town with it.
--I tried to keep the color pallete dull. It got brighter toward the end, simply to keep everything from mudding together. But I did start out with much different colors than the usual. Which is always fun.

Markers and colored pencil on textured taupe-colored cardstock.
