Description
I've watched a few LPs of the original System Shock. SHODAN's emails to the Hacker (the player character) are usually accompanied by a tiny pixelated graphic of a distorted green face. Given that the game came put in 1994, I figured it was time to try updating it a little.
Anyways, I found the old graphic (which was painfully tiny urgh), and put it on a layer underneath this painting, and tried to do a sort of trace, sort of overpaint where I filled in all the pixelled-out details whichever way I thought worked. I painted one half, then copied it and mirrored it on the other side, so it had this mix of both natural painting styles and Uncanny Valley at the same time.
I wouldn't mind trying to animate the green glowy line bits, but I've got no GIF animators. (If anyone can recommend me a good freeware or browser-based GIF animator, I'd appreciate it. I've been itching to make my own reaction GIFs for a while...)
