That Badman Peach

Description

For the first time in nearly four years, I've worked up the confidence to try my hand at digital painting. I have a really obscure idea for one, and after three eight hours of experimenting, this is what I've managed to come up with. At this point, I can't see it being any more than my avatar. But I like him, and I might do something more, at some point.

UPDATE: This is now the poster-child for my new account. :iconthatbadmanpeach:

The concept was based on some various gamer tags I've had. One of my most used is MillionsO'Peaches, a reference to a Presidents of the U.S.A. song. I usually just shorten it to "Peaches" when referring to myself in-game, (which is also the same name as the demon character from the old cartoon Rocko's Modern Life - yeah, I have a thing for the '90s.)

According to Urban Dictionary, "badman" is a Jamaican slang used to refer to a gangster, or rebel in general. For my latest Steam tag, the name "That Badman Peaches" just sort of came to me, and I loved it. Of course, "Peaches" plural doesn't make a lot of sense, so I've since shortened it to just "Badman Peach." So I thought about how ridiculous of a concept that was, and decided to make myself an avatar for it.

I thought I commented on this. Huh.

Anyway, I like it. Something you've got here that I don't usually have in my paintings is the color variation within the peach itself. I'm absolutely terrible with colors (too timid). I would have made him all "peach" but that's not how real things look.
