This is.......green

mmm yes, because of clouds,IMO.

some photomanipulation inside ? no ?

AFAICS on search engines, there are multiple scanned results for "The Punishment" by Vallejo , some are bluish, some greenish, some polychromatic. This is odd. Anyway, official Vallejo site might give this result some kind of authority :

ahahah ! I love it !!!

well it seems the original picture use different color.
(ed.CONS:link added, thanks!)

Tempest: You're probably right. I'd really like to see a better quality of the original.

original (better? version) reported, this one was really crappy but the newer is... different, not bluish, apparently.

For 1989, that's pretty good IMO.

Wade: well, the original in this page is a small and smudgy jpeg. I bet the original painting would convert you.

chromag: that's like saying dunno what to think of demoscene graphics. The golden rule is that if it looks good, it's a repaint. you can count demoscene's gifted illustrators/painters with one hand. well... maybe two, but no more

Not bad at all..

Kris: Din't know you were at Eurocom, too... Visited Optic, Boo and GFX-Twins over there in Derby, too and even got into the realms of Eurocom until I was kindly asked to leave due to security reasons
Optic has also been a member of Talent, by the way.

Always thought that was made by Boo but it's clearly visible that optic made it

this looks cool

doesn't look coherent at all

Dunno what to think of those repaints...

So much nicer than the original in my opinion. I love the lighting, the colours for the skin and how the water looks translucent.

too porno

cockless?

2cents:
AFAICT, definition of "compositing" could be more accurate..
