Saint's Row 2 - cover art

I was tasked with creating this Magazine cover, for the game, "Saint's Row 2" -- my role/responsibilities were: Art Direction, texturing, shaders, lighting and final compositing. (additional credit to Tim Borelli for posing the in-game characters and then the models were up-rez'd and sculpted in Zbrush by Doug Champine and Heath Vincent
