In Response To: The Pfhor (Anaphiel)

: OK, last art update for a while...

: The chapter screen for The Pfhor is now up at the URL below. Scroll waaaay
: down to find the new stuff.

: I feel I need to apologize for using the M2 Enforcer head on this one, but it
: looks so much cooler than the overtly phallic helmets they wore in M1.
: While I'm at it, I apologize to HR Geiger for ripping off his style, to
: all of you for reusing so many of my Marathon:Resurrection textures, and
: to Photoshop users everywhere for blatant overuse of the "Plastic
: Wrap" filter. But it is the perfect tool for making those slimy,
: resinous structures that the Pfhor seem to be so fond of.

: This is what passes for a speed painting for me. I did all of the color
: painting between last night and today. I love being on vacation.

Of all the Marathon enemies I hate the Enforcers the most, even more than the Wasps. This is not an exaggeration or bluster: but often when I kill an Enforcer I run up to it's fetid, cooling ruins, fire a few shots into it and yell, "BITCH!!". I hate 'em! Seeing this one looking so damn lifelike it just makes my skin crawl. I didn't notice the captured BOB at first and it made for a startling surprise (and a moment later more anger), but like the man said it wouldn't hurt to make the face portion less apparent. The body is fine, it is just a shape until the face identifies it as a human form. Let the viewer notice it the NEXT time he looks at the graphic.

One thing I did notice right off, and enjoyed seeing like an old friend, was the UESC Marathon out the port hole on the left. Viewing your work is like taking an adventure into the place we all have known but have never quite seen in good light.
