OFFLINE Digital Painting WIP

[gigsmella]

Here's a new digital painting I am doing at the moment, my entry at Wacom's contest.

The story I created behid this image is that in the future robots are becoming more human, their programming and artificial intelligence have evolved to cope with humanity and their vanity, while humans on the other hand are becoming more and more reliant on the technology that most most population of the earth are in many ways integrated to the technology, however robots are still considered a synthetic being not capable of human emotion. Offline is tragic story about two beings that has blurred the distinction between being human and being a robot in the near future and how they struggle be accepted.

Really nice. Love how the steam from the robot pops out better in that last update. I'm a totally newbie when it comes to drawing. But i think the robot seems a little flat ? Also the robot face in the background could use some blurring to suggest depth in the picutre (considering how big it must be) ?

Take that critics for what it is, a newbie thinking loudly about things I don't know =)
