    Munch, you gotta make more effort to think in 3D, man. He looks all sorts of flat.

    Before I scanned it I was actually thinking that same thing. I see it mostly in the lower portion of his legs, where I feel like I made a weird tangent between his right shin and left ankle, as well as the left forearm.

    Man, I hate to always feel like I'm making excuses for my art, but I posted the first pass here, and mentioned I was intentionally exaggerating his proportions to make him seem huge.

    I was kind of going for a Doug Mahnke-esque, my-dudes-are-five-heads-wide-at-the-shoulders kind of exaggeration.

    Not saying I didn't botch that attempt though. Looking at him, he's about 7 1/2 - 8 heads tall, which seems within the realm of reasonable for comic book proportions.

    It...It's startling how much that reminds me of the drawings a friend of mine from way back in third grade would draw, Zerg.

    I don't mean like you're drawing a third grade level.


    It just has that same feeling, and subject matter, but of a higher quality, and refinement.



    The nostalgia is startling. Your name isn't Michael, is it?

    really digging that myk

    i'd be interested in seeing that same drawing done traditionally
    with real ink on like a nice textured paper.
    though... i'm biased because i'm all into that now, but that sketch in particular would look real sharp i think.

    or on watercolor paper.

    I'm trying to figure out how that makes me sound like I'm on crack but I can't see it.
    maybe that means I'm on crack.
    no I should have them on tuesday, but negative results for a test like this mean jack shit. they had to test my mom 5 or more times to get a definitive yes.

    I think it's done, finally. Shows up nicely against darker and lighter backgrounds.

    Hey that looks pretty good! The hair on his arms does kinda look like he's been scratched up a lot, though, as it looks almost the same colour as the scar on his face.

    that does look good, man. I would darken the arm hair, and push it more towards brown, and maybe darken the scar and push it more towards red. neither really show up on the 1x views. also, if you plan on having any dark backgrounds, you might want to lighten the highlight on the front brim.

    This is way better than what you had before. I'm totally digging it.

    I guess leaving Photoshop open for 5 days straight can create problems. I haven't had PS crash on me since the 6.x days. Laaaame. I know I saved recently, but I forget how recently...

    Styling gel, but your welcome to interperet it as you please. Or as pleases you most.

    -also on the sprite of the dog I think the white on the feathers stands out too much where every other colour is quite calm.

    DMAC- I'm digging it. Great clean hatching you have there. Especially like the way you inked the hair. It has a classic look to it, something you'd see from someone like Milton Caniff.

    Delz- In the dog sprite you should darken his back leg and arm. In the cowboy, his back leg and arm are much darker, and you want to keep that same level of shadow pretty consistent since these characters will be on the same plane.

    It's kind of like a chinchilla, except that it makes confusing, and occasionally perplexing, chit-chat.
