The beginning of the End, of Ulquiorra

Well if you are a bleach fan, then you shuold know this is ichigo as a full hollow. I took the picture from the manga chapter and then painted over it in skin tone on photo shop and then burned the picture using photoshop effects and createdthe shading that is in his abs and other body areas. I then pianted his hair and the flames in the back and then burned that as wel to give it a more 3d-ish look. FInally i took black paint and outlined zangetsu and the area around him and then made a thick red outline and used the smudge tool to make it look more like a getsuga tensho he was charging up.

Hollow:?

I was reading the Bleach issue 344 and was totally impressed at how Tite Kubo drew Ichigo releasing his hollow mask in this issue. I liked this one more than the other release pictures for a reason which i really didnt get until now. I really felt that Kubo was just creating an image that would set up the layout and entire sequence for the rest of the fight.......making it so much more epic and dramatic, and it was kinda scary actually how the maks was just opened at the mouth, when there aren't any real pictures of it doing that before, which just made me go like " Whoa....! darmatic!" lol
