Derek Custer - Thank goodness you've come!

Hello everyone!

I've been working on some illustrations for roadstergal's Stroke Me A Zipper. If you haven't read it, go do so - it's hillarious and smoking hot all at the same time! Anyway, while I love playing around with image editing programs (mostly Photoshop, but now I'm trying The Gimp on for size), I'm quite lazy, and terribly impatient. This leads to a tendency to go "naaaaah's goodenough" when the end result clearly isn't.

I am trying to do this right though, and I'll keep working on them for a bit. But being impatient, I thought I'd post this sample image, to give you an idea of what Derek might look like.





And can I just say that right now I hate the Ace-wig with a vengeance? *tries to hammer it onto Chris's head for current WIP* Thank you. :p

It's wrong that I googled "vermillion" to try to get the exact shade, right? *not obsessive*

Nope. Derek Custer deserves perfection. ;)
