Artist's Comments

General Douglas MacArthur. Instrumental to the pacification and reconstruction of Japan during and after WWII, MacArthur was the leader of the Allied forces in the Pacific theater. He was notorious for always wearing his sunglasses and corncob pipe, and left an indelible impression on Japan after the war. This is a digital painting done in photoshop 7 from a photo reference: [link] . I tried to make it appear a bit more dramatic.

Hey, thanks! Yeah, I found a pretty simple way to add a basic skin-like texture. It may seem subtle but it can really add a lot, I've discovered.

Ooh, you made him colored from the black and white? Fabulous, Kuri-kun!

Yeah I did the B&W painting first and then colored it in a separate layer.

It looks like you've been doing this for years. ;o)
:iconv5planet:
Does that mean it's time to go back and try doing yet another painting of your face?
