By the power of Greyskull- Thundercats Hoooooooo!! Finished
I think Liono (Whatever the fuck his name is) should be looking his foe in the face and not at his toes. That can be debated or whatever, but whenever I see two people clashing in comics or movies then usually not only lock weapons but gazes as well. I think the piece is awesome though. Good stuff.
The LittleMan In The Boat on
I don't suffer from Insanity. I enjoy every minute of it.
I think your colors are your strongest asset. That's not to say that your linework isn't great, it's just that it reaches a whole 'nother level when the colors are laid down.
I agree with The LittleMan In The Boat. Liono looks like he was in the middle of an epic charge and then saw something shiny on the ground that drew his attention.

When I grow up I want to be just like Cyber.
Man, I'm really behind the times. When did Skull Mountain turn into Anubis Mountain? and where the fuck is skeletor.....?
At least Castle Grey Skull and He-Man still look the same.......I hate getting old.
Oh, I saw it alright. Keep it up and you might just get your 'o' :P
Primedape- can do
Prospicience- Thanks brother
Rankenphile- <3<3
sharky t- Thanks man, I still struggle with all that stuff, but I do try and push myself a little bit more each picture
The LittleMan In The Boat- Agreed. It's not the first time I have had that problem with a picture. I gave it a fix though, and I think it's much better. I find it hard to make my characters seem to interact with each other. I was a bit stupid with this piece when I drew it. I wasn't sure what I really wanted it to look like, so I drew all the different elements on different bits of paper and combined them in photoshop. Not the best way to really do it.
desperaterobots- thanks bots. The actual colouring itself is pretty straight forward. Just using the eyedropper tool and a low opacity and flow brush. It's finding the right colours to use is the tricky bit I find. I did a tut ages ago when I first started colouring like this. I may see if I can dig it up
Godfather- Thanks dude. Yeah, I feel like my colouring has definitely developed further over the last few years more than my line work. I actually find myself rushing it sometimes, just so I can get it into the computer.
Creambun 007- EXACTLY!!
DeeLock- lol, as awesome as that would make the picture.... it wasn't really my intention. Close up, it looked better because you could see his eyes looking up as his head was down, but this small, and the extra lighting i put in his eye, it came out all wrong. Hopefully the fix has made it a little better
Mustang- You better just be pretending you don't know who the Thundercats are, OR I WILL CUT YOU
I still love you though
Ok- I'm about to call this one done. If you have any last minute issues I can maybe do some fixes
fucking nice, Cyber. I was kinda hoping you'd leave the guys in the background a little less rendered, and even now I wish theres was alittle bit more depth clues. Other than that I like it alot.
My only beef is with the lightning, but as you can see, I've been beat'd like a red headed step child.
EDIT: Wait, I just found something else I don't like.. it's a shame I didn't see these until now, since, like Goatse, once I've seen them, I can not UNSEE them. A few tangents (pretty bad ones too)
Liono's foot meeting with the blue guys elbow, and liono's elbow meeting with He-mans hip.
Other tangents, although not as glaring, are the blue guys weapon handle resting on the edge of the thundercat mountain, the other handle sweeping right into liono's bent leg, and the guy with the guns, his guns resting right below the mountains in the background and castle greyskull melding directly into his helmet and neck.
I hope you have these elements all on separate layers, so you can readjust them accordingly.
Much better! It looks.. just. BONERIFIC! Would you happen to have a high res version for those of us who want to have the most biotchin' background pic ever?

Awesome.
Two things i noticed about the sword fighting cats:
The left Leg of the right cat seems odd. Too much thigh and no visible lower leg (excuse my english i hope u understand what e mean)
The left cat's thigh is split. That doesnt seem to be right. Imho this should only be one single muscle...
Thats about it.
Ape
I see what you mean about the thighs, ape- i'll give that a tweak as I go along
I could very well imagine this as a framed poster in my living room

It's from the awesome. They're dripping in it, and it ran down onto the floor.

Maybe that's what you were going for...
In such case, ignore said statement...

Primedape- can do

although god damn that's either one big-ass Sorceress or one really tiny Castle Greyskull
and yeah, the lightning does look a little flat, but that's just a minor detail. Fucking awesome, man.
Really big sorceress, I think - I mean Jaga is a big spirit-y thing, and she seems to be on the same scale.

motherfucker is straight ballin

Fixed some of the tangents- some end up being the lesser of two evils, so some may have too stay I also added some more effects to the lightning.
You always make me do more on these things than I feel like doing- and for that I thank you all
