How do I know when one of the artists I find to star in Making A Mark hits it big? Easy - you start coming across their fan-art versions of a character, turned into just as crazily hot skin art. Case before the jury; Dave Rapoza. A man whose stunning toy based portraits I featured here, draws Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Leonardo like this;
I know right - it gets incredible-r each time you look at it! Anyway back to what I was saying, Dave draws the above, and skin artist Chip Rutz has rendered this;
...and I actually think I like the colours in this execution just a tad better than the original (not that I'd ever come out of my shell enough to get one this detailed)!
