Thanks, these images are for anyone who wishes to use them in anyway. Also, since you have a bucket list of avatars for your forum, you might check out my bucket, I have close to 400 Alien and Predator avatars. If you see any you want to add to your bucket, feel free to grab them. . . . . http://www.scifimoviezone.com/avpforumavatars.shtml

Fantastic! Thank you for sharing those.

I keep meaning to do a nice big update of avatars actually. Was always just something I enjoyed doing when I had nothing to do.

Fan of LeRoy Neiman?

Here's a photoshop piece I designed of the Covenant xenomorph in the style of LeRoy Nieman.

For those not familiar with Neiman, he was an American artist well known for sports paintings who's style included bold splashy paint strokes and brilliant colors.

Only thing that would make this better would be a Warhol style xenomorph 4-piece portrait.

My guess, Warhol would have loved Photoshop.

My guess, Warhol would have loved Photoshop.

He did, in fact, dabble in digital art on a Commodore Amiga computer in the mid eighties! Your guess is spot on, friend. He would have loved Photoshop.

If not an alien, definitely think of making a David portrait, Warhol-style. Now that's something I'd love to see.

Yea, he died just one year before Photoshop was created.

I took early retirement so I have lots of free time and you mentioning Warhol inspired me to design a Warhol version of Predator. It didn't turn out like I had imagined. I should have removed more detail to match Warhol's pop art minimalist tone.

I modeled it on Warhol's Marilyn Monroe portrait......

Try posterizing it more, your version seems to have too defined edges and areas. If you wanna achieve Warhol's style you're gonna have to be VERY loose on the light/shadow thresholds. Other than that it looks great. Just keep tweaking and experimenting until you find what's most pleasing

Posterizing wouldn't really work, that would add black outlines to the facial/head shape. Warhol was not really big on adding black outlines on subjects.

Subject is everything, and honestly I think predator is not the ideal subject to recreate a Warhol impression. Your suggestion of David would be a better subject.

That xeno and pred in your photoshop is amazing. I loved that!

[Biomechanoid]

Thank you, Neo.
