I mentioned in my last post about the Stryper contest. Though i had mentally given up, I was struck with inspiration at 10:19 PM Tuesday night and stayed up til 1:00 AM working on it. Couple hours yesterday, couple today, and voila...my submission for Stryper's next album; "Murder by Pride."
Had alot of fun painting this in photoshop.
Here's the two finals:


Here's my initial drawing and some background elements:

And my initial sketches:

This is very exciting. I love it. Thanks for sharing it with us.
That is very cool Tim! I love seeing the process of the sketch and drawings.
I love it, Tim, Powerful.
Really great piece Tim! Really strong and wonderful.
Sorry for forcing you to try! :D That is excellent! You've got my vote!
Why is the enter key so big??? Ha! Anyway, the last post was from me...
awesome! i hope you win! :D
I like the one that is zoomed out a little more. It lets us focus on the guy a little more and gives us a good view of the texture in the background. Cool stuff. How'd the Parable storyline work out?

Thanks for the encouraging words everybody: )
Jeremy, I gave that story a break. Lost steam due to the delay of Parable 1. It was going pretty well though, inked 7 pages
Again, Tim cool stuff. graphically rich.
The cd title font is perfect.
I'm left to wonder if the character image is too strong or supernatural for Stryper, and yes I do remember the original cover for to Hell With the Devil.
The character bears a strong resemblance to Until the Twilight.
It is a departure from what Stryper usually do, which may be the point. Either way, you are a great artist that has created a piece that demands to be considered for the cover! I hope your work is chosen!
