Artist's Comments

Update 2: Chosen for a DD, I'm stunned! Thankyou everyone, this means a lot to me. All of a sudden I have a lot of comments to read, and I can't guarantee an answer for everyone, but I promise to do my best.

Update: If you are interested, you can see the original pencil sketch in my scraps, here: [link]

I actually started this as a simple study, it was meant to be a human figure - but I made a stupid mistake about 30 seconds into it and decided that it would look more interesting as a robot-thingy. Thank God for human error. Sketched with pencil, then scanned and coloured with PS7. It's a little different to how I originally imagined it, but I'm quite pleased with it nonetheless.

Thanks to ~brenbren for the stock photos I used for the background: [link] [link]

and ~laxative for his wonderful rust textures: [link] [link]

Daily Deviation

Given 2006-05-07

Human Error by *the-least is a dark and somewhat lonely interpretation of the future. While there are many interpretations to the title of this piece, the artist describes how he arrived at this state rather than giving up. (Suggested by ~kingkool6 and Featured by $spinegrinder)

I love the look of that robot guy. Especially like how you did the spine part and back of the neck. It looks REALLY good!
Great coloring job too. I like how it has a textured look.

oh wow! The textures ARE gorgeous! I love them! What an interesting piece! But I'm such a sucker for that bronze colour :D I love the pose and the details throughout, what a cool piece ^_^
:iconthe-least:
Wee! Many thanks. The more I look at this piece, the more I like it. Yeah, I have a certain weakness for that colour scheme too ;)

That's just beautiful. The robot looks soft enough to convey emotion but not enough to be... unrobotish. Great work. :thumbsup:
:iconthe-least:
Hah, beautifully expressed! I wish I could say that I had planned it that way :D
