The Lord of Massacre Unmasked

I've been saying that I was going to do a frontal view of my OC, well here it is. Ha Ha This was actually a challenge for me to do. I had my program GIMP crash on me. I was lucky though because I save often, Had to start over half way after that. Also ran into an error or a bug where I apply a Screen layer(Black to become clear), when I applied more than one the photo would whiten up. I. Did. Not. Like. That! Never did that before. I ended up saving it with layers compressed without the screen layers of when I was trying to work on making the unstable lightsaber and start over. After that It started to work normal. playing with shadows and the lighting was a challenge for me too, Think that took most of my time. This was an all day, one day project for me. So much determination I put towards this on my day off. Sort of nice to have a day off. Also had a problem trying upload this as a PNG file, 564 KB file... is that really too big for deviantART? Had to upload it as a TIFF image which I am uncomfortable about, sort of afraid that some of the resolution will be lost. Anyway I used the same Helmet that I used in the Masked version(link will be provided below so you can see it), Used the Dark Knight body armor for the chest and legs and center part of the Belt. The Belt was from a Clone Trooper Phase 2, and half of the boots are from Vader's Shin Guards. I said before about an unstable lightsaber, well I decided to stick with that for my Character, kind of reflects him, corrupted like just him. Those aren't familiar with an Unstable Lightsaber, Look up Star Wars: Force Unleashed Video Game. I think I won't be doing anymore changes to my Character. Also thinking of Cosplaying as him next year When Star Wars Episode 7 comes out. 

Anyway God Bless you guys, hope you guys like this.
