2K Commissions 350-Hour Painting of Duke Nukem

unless it's with the writers of Yahoo News, don't think Duke will have much trouble upstaging the Royal Wedding in the U.S. heh

Wait, Left 4 Dead was innovative?

Having only played it in mini-parties on Splitscreen on my friend's Xbox (and having awesome fun), I guess I have only myself to blame for not noticing this. But as a genuine question, how is it different to normal zombie shooter games?.

idk, cuz they run at you? lol i dunno, don't hold me to that one

Oh my, 2K games. How I love thee.

Might be me, but I'm getting the definite impression that perspective here is a bit screwy - he isn't at a right angle with the floor.

huh? where? I don't see nuthn wrong with the perspective... 'cept there's no tits anywhere

For me, Duke Nukem already upstaged the wedding. I care about Duke nukem because it is vaguely relevant to my interests, a royal wedding is not.

2K Games has commissioned the most involved piece of Duke Nukem art ever created.

Most time involved piece of duke art? His final 3D model took 10 years .

OK, THAT made me laugh. Incidentally, proving once more that truth is hilarious. xD

Longest anyone ever stayed awake was 11 days (264 hours), and that person died. Maybe the artist didn't work on anything else for a few weeks, perhaps not even leaving his studio, but a single sitting is biologically impossible.

I don't think this picture does this painting justice..

 

[SpAc3man]

its a cool idea but the painting itself is pretty crap

That's...uh...that's actually kind of a mediocre painting. The perspective's off, the lighting's flat and directionless, the guns look half-rendered, and Duke himself looks kind of like an inflatable doll. The average denizen of conceptart.org could crank out something like this in 5-6 hours. They might have commissioned a slightly more talented artist.

Well... Depending on the size, this could have taken several times longer than a similar image rendered on a scalable digital format. Still, I find 350 hours a bit... unbelievable. Though I thought skill might have contributed to the amount of time it took, considering the poor anatomy featured in this painting, but after my tablet pen spazzing out from a low battery and clicking on link to a porn site when I was googling his name, I fear that assessing his abilities by looking at his usual work would be deeply scarring.

This is the ONE time I'm happy that my internet's so bad, it doesn't load images before I can close the window!

Oh god. Porn is one thing; badly drawn porn is a blight upon the earth.
