If you really need me to explain why I've chosen this weeks featuree (is that a word? It is now) as Character Of The week, I'd suggest you get your eyes checked, and possibly return them to the manufacturer, because they're obviously faulty.
See what I mean? Linea says it's all just insignias, but I think it's more likely witchcraft. If I didn't know she'd used heromachine I wouldn't believe it was heromachine. Linea has a talent for making cats and this is a fine example. The pose might look simple, but I can't even imagine the patience required to get it to work and look so seamless. Of course, there are still some bits that could do with some attention; the paws in this case, they could do with some features, such as definition between the toes so they don't just look like blobs, but overall it's incredible. Then we have the background. The glow effect works really well as a contrast against the black, grey and dull browns of the rest of the background. I also like the fact that the glow is reflected, not only off of the rest of the background, but off of the character its self. It shows that the character is actually interacting with the surroundings, which shows real thought on the part of Linea.
Stunning work.
