nice work. what's the thing on the centre character's head? it's a little funny looking.
i'd also develop the background a little more. i don't mean put ground and mountains etc. in, but a little more elemental work (more smoke effects and the like).

hope this helps!

i think you should make his right shoulder and upper arm somewhat bigger 'coz for now he looks slightly unbalanced regarding this side of his body...beside that everything looks fine imho - you're just starting on the bg or?

keep it up :beer:

I wasn't really planning a background. He was a doodle that I kept on working on yesterday. Any suggestions for a bg?

I got the perspective out on the shoulders. In my first sketch his right shoulder swung back but I seem to have screwed it up a little.

I use a Wacom 8x6 and I love it. I have a smaller one on a second machine which is not as nice to use and I've tried a bigger one and found it harder to work with.

A bg for the character is not so easy!

In two month i'll buy the same wacom as you :buttrock:

WOW, I was struck by the depth of expression on the front most character - a very nice painting...the only thing that bothers me is, are those mechanical thingies, they seem to not be realy born for the picture..or is it just me!?

It was about 1200wide and 1700high at 300 PPI. At that res a print comes out at around 6x4 inches (approx) but its's enough for what I needed it for.
