February 12 - blackcubic

“People say graffiti is ugly, irresponsible and childish... but that's only if it's done properly.”

~ Banksy, Wall and Piece

Blackcubic is a a Russian artist on Fiverr who does pencil caricatures and portraits in pencil, but is currently offering cg portraits of pets that have a very distinct style.

This is masterful image editing, but if his "Splashy Watercolor Style" is too busy for you, the other is similarly styled in grayscale with slight color accents.

As someone who has spent a good deal of time image editing, I can tell the amount of work and layers and expertise that went into creating this, it raises the bar to a whole new level.  Take a look at the drop shadow - it's angled on the wall behind.  The pig itself is colored to accentuate the features underneath the watercolor splashes.  My brain is boggled.

This deserves to be hung on a wall.
