Just something I did in an hour or so for fun, hope you like it. Be.Shiek is my nickname/work name at my graphic design firm.

Your nickname is your name, minus one letter? Anyways, I don't know what it actually is. Did you draw it, did you cartoonify it, did you edit a photo? Looks pretty damn cool either way, though.

My nickname is Be.Shiek. It sounds like Be Chic (the word for stylish) so they thought it sounded cool. I just kinda stuck with it and now alot of people know me as that I guess.
This image, was based on a photo my sister has of Kanye West, it's him in a grey suit on a purpleish/grey background from his 808's & Heartbreak promotion. I looked the image up on google, put it into photoshop, traced an outline and begin coloring and shading. I guess it's kind of a digital painting of sorts? I'm not sure.

I like the effect of the gradient shading against the solid black outlines, gives a cool contrast, i really like the look of this dude

That is some great work, there. The shading looks very nice. I have seen this sort of thing been done before, but not as well as this. Here's a link to where others have done this caws.ws/forum/topic/311142-wrestleart-roster-info-thread/ . it'd be nice to see this develop a bit further, maybe do a few more?
