48 Hour Art Test 2 WIP

Say hello to my little friend! (WIP)

I was browsing the Internet for awesome concepts and stumbled upon Timur Mutsaev.  His website is AWESOME featuring some really impressive artwork and sketches dating back to the late 1980s and early 1990s.  Some of his more recent work includes concept art from Crysis 2!

The model I am working on now is based on Mr. Mutsaev's artwork seen here:
