does this work? and no, its not awesome.

my mad photoshop skillz. :rolleyes: a little splash of color…

i actually like the op’s elephant idea more than the realism elephant. while i do appreciate both of them, i just enjoy the quirkiness of the op. the realism for me is too…serious, at least for elephants haha. making sure i give credit where credit is due, the execution on the realistic one is simply amazing.

looks so awesome man. grats! love the palette.

did you travel far to get it done? was it at his shop or a convention?

ugh im definitely jealous. looks amazing, and though im not a fan of hanya im a huge fan of his style. enjoy it! i hope he starts taking some new clients…

personally i love it! love the style. love the splash of color. congrats.

well at least its only fairly poor…

well there was really no reason for me to wait that long except for maybe financial reasons, but i could have saved up a few bucks every week and did at least a session a year. other than that it was just laziness…the artist was always around, and my friend too. But either way yes, it was definitely worth it! haha, pant leg.
