the tittle says it all...
im huge fan of heavymetal's 80's covers, when such big names like Moebius, Caza, Druillet where still working on the french original magazine Metal hurlant
and heavy metal's where done by Bisley, Corben,Liberatore...
A great and inspirationnal time
i wanted the guy to look powerfull, so i used some photos from aireplanes for the textures
( yes he looks like cyclop from Xmen, but hey im a comics fanboy too:P)
As usual, modelled with 3dsmax and mudbox, rendered with vray, touched ups on photoshop of course
