This is a huge competition, So heres my best shot. The human form has always been a challenge to artist over the years. This is the most technically challenging design I have ever tried. A composite, of tissue, skin and bone, form study, with my own attitude thrown in for good measure.
I started with about a dozen test renders useing Poser 7, get my reference material, Looking at lighing options and pose, Doing a render of each layer, tissue, and skeleton, then I did the line work, about 20 hrs, give or take, last was the color, live paint is tedious to say the least.
Shading for is one of the hardest things to do in vector graphics, I solved this with the use of contour lines.
The Foil is ment to give the form a natural glisten, as if to simulate sweat or moisture.
Enjoy and Good luck to everyone. Stop by any time Newman.
oh no this was supposed to be for the 10k but I guess I forgot to click the deal. Major bummer, I hope you like it just the same. What a bone head move on my part.

The mouth is open, it just looks odd because there are no lips, or teeth, but I could have added a little more expression. Glad you like it Mark.
