Hi there, I ask my lovely girlfriend Angela Pauly to do a paintover of the ¨Jinro¨ character as well, trying to find a suitable clothing / equipment for the guy!. She came up with this, and to be honest with you, I love it! Let me know what you think? ;)

Hi all!

These is a character I´m doing on my free time, it is based on my friend´s Felipe Cartin concept art about an kinda old match in Starcraft 2 between Pro-Players Jinro and Idra.
The main idea was to make a bust of him, but now it´s taking another direction, still trying to maintain the main features though, and maybe I´m going for the whole body as well.

Feel free to critique and comment!. Thanks.
