I really like the first one. The others are also very cool (especially nr 5), but there's something about that first one that I just really appreciate.

Great job :chug:

Whatever, great work.

My favorite is the third sequential. Very cool.

These are stunning man. I tried to find something to crit. But there really isn't much.

The last pic seems a little to dark, but Im assuming thats what you were going for, maybe if you put a street lamp shining on her, it'd give it some juice.

Great work!:)

I like the first one. There is something off about the right leg below the knee. Looks broken on such a strong character.

The first sequential I like alot. The third colored pic with the girl is attractive. The rest are also nice.

How long does it take to draw something like the first sequential? Is it time intensive? I wondered if, once you know the photoshop tools, if the pictures roll right out of the hand?

The style is appealing. I would like to see more.

very nice use of muted colors here. The only thing I'd like to see is a little more sense of movement. Right now things look fairly static, but it still all looks great. Peace

I love the style you possess with these works man. I would love to try sculpting something from your works someday. :) There's just something about your line work and colors...very appealing.

Great work, I love your use of colours, which I'm happy to say hasn't changed. I notice you've gone a bit more mange though. You had balance of part manga, part western style that I really liked, and while it still looks good, I think it lost a bit of you original style of fusion.

Nicely done Amigo. :)

You know I'm not much into Manga, but your use of color is always a treat.

Good stuff brotha.

the scene with the girl grabbing the flower needs a little work. the execution is great, but the action needs more telling. perhaps another frame inbetween the shot of the girl reaching for the flower and the shot of her next to the bed. you should show her walking. you should also stick some remnants of a background in the shot of the girl picking up the flower. it's ambiguous and needs explaining unless the viewer really examines the previous frame and notices the pot in the foreground.

the next sequential is also a little confusing. my main crit is that you need to maybe add a frame or show more direction, because the first 2 frames and the others seem like they have nothing to do with each other.

as far as execution goes, great work. seems like a mixture of anime and comic bookish style. keep up the great work, i'd also like to see some more work from you!

WOW!! beautiful work! i really like your use of colour in your panels! the contrasts in the colour pallete sets a raw and organic techie feel to the characters and scenes! i look forward to seeing your work in my local comic shop shelf! again beautiful work!

thanks a lot for the comments guys!

i.was.ink - yep you're right, it's too dark, especially for a comics cover. i'll do something about that pronto. cheers!

howdy - yeah that was the problem with the pose - the right leg looked a little awkward. the sequentials take me 1~1.5 days from start to finish. though i usually do 4 at the same time, in steps, and that takes me about 5 days to pencil and colour. the covers take longer.

phuzion - good point, i'll have to work on getting more movement into my pics. thanks.

main loop - no, look at the top - her index is raised.

scotty - holy shit i'd love it if you did that!

maximillion - yeah, i started out pretty western looking, but it's been getting more and more japanese. i think where it is now is a style i'm happy with. well, relatively.

malachi - hey man, how's it going! i'll be winging a package your way pretty soon :chug:

defcombeta - thanks! it's published through www.apcomics.com . i think you can order it from previews.

hyphen - thanks for the crits. i think it's a matter of how you want to approach your sequentials, whether you want to spell everything out for the reader, or if you want to leave a little to them. i guess i chose the latter, though i don't think it's exactly unclear. bear in mind there'll be text added in too.

ninja noodle - uk in the house! :)

everyone else, thanks a lot!

I like the first image the best. It's not the character that grabs me, but the cool background. I love how simple the line work is, and the color tone works well.
