I'm very excited about the upcoming Scott Pilgrim movie starring Michael Cera and decided it could be fun to make my own poster for it. It seemed appropriate to recreate the cover of the first book. It's an iconic and eye grabbing image.
Painted in Corel Painter over the course of a week, maybe around 20 hours total time.

~~Aug. 2010 update, I forgot to upload this earlier, but I made some adjustments once official movie promotional images started coming out. Shifted some colors a bit for movie accuracy and added a halftone pattern to mimic some of the visual cues from the trailer.
Ha, fair enough. Even fairly soon after I finished this one, I wasn't really happy with it. I think his head's too big, the pose is rather stiff and that's the last thing you'd want a Scott Pilgrim image to be like.
Ha, sorry? I haven't had much time, sadly, to spend at DeviantArt lately. And honestly, this is the first time anyone has expressed any sense of urgency with a reply, I do feel like I'm courteous and fairly quick to reply with questions or more pressing comments. Thanks for the feedback all the same!
