I was inspired to create and split an off topic on this subject for digital painting of classic games and characters as I think it deserves it's own topic.
So first up from me is a the classic "Double Dragon" from Technōs Japan
It is of course Billy Lee at the famous Volkswagen Beetle, this images comprised of pixel to pixel upscale to A3 Poster size, as I may consider getting this turned into a Canvas, 15 different artistic brushes were used to blend and smudge the image to create this painting, across 32 layers inside PhotoShop
and then it was texture with a soft canvas finish. Time on this piece taken 2hrs and proves how much I love Double Dragon.
