Description
This was supposed to be a quick sketch to figure out Madcap’s head. Supposed to be.
It's a boring side view and whatnot, but I still kinda like it. I had to redesign his head because even though I’ve drawn gunhead cyborgs for years Aaron Beck started doing a really similar design. And since he’s a heck of a lot better and well known, everyone will start claiming I copied him.
I’m not saying he stole from me, the dude’s an excellent concept artist. I just don’t want to deal with that. I've had similar problems before and it's no fun.
This was probably all for the best anyways, because I realized that I was drawing cyborgs from 2070 with equipment that looked like it came from 2011. This didn’t really make sense, so I revamped him to work better with the technology of the time period. The larger black circles on his head are laser lenses, capable of deflecting incoming projectiles, transmitting information, painting targets for laser guided bombs, and plain old laserin’ stuff. The smaller dots are his eyes (seriously, look how small the camera in your phone is, this is just a continuation of that trend).

Love it...Really digging the "realistic" laser apertures and the pinhole optical ports. Something disturbing about the way his head is planed off just above the jaws but then abruptly kinks upward just behind that. Like there's something missing, but...not.
Just to slop your hogs, did you see this Aaron Beck video?
