decided to take a stab at doing a comic book. the subject matter is boring because it was a story i had to illustrate for class, but i tried to make the best of it.

for the comic, the subject is boring but i think you made it a simple and ejoyable tale.
i love the energy from the ink drawings, real tough thing to pull off
always great to see drawings from life.

Great stuff man... some of it reminds me of the Metal Gear style of illustrations... am I right or?

Edit: sorry didn't see the text saying you got the Art Book of MGS2 :), however, it's almost the same style just practice a little more :D!

Gotta get that MGS concept-book..

Well, cool stuff as always.
The ink-heads are great.

One thing I noticed is that you draw heads slightly too big.
Maybe I'm at fault but the head of the dude at the bottom of the last but third page certainly is. ;)

meta - thanks man

lukias - fuck yeah, its great to hear good feedback from you. .. .and you should update more

genesis - thanks

anto - thanks. i got the book off of e bay (i think)

aidan - nah, youre right, the heads are slightly too big in a few of them. you cant really erase ink, so what is there is there, but thatll help me get em right. thanks

siskol - brush pen? never used one of them before.. . .these were done with paintbrushes i manipulated to get the brush stroke style. yeah, shinkawa is the man. where can i pick up a brush pen?

thanks for the feedback guys

one thing that gets me down is that some of those beautiful pictures you had posted once. man in the hood or that creature near him. I remember your previous threads.

the rest is just lovely :)

hey man, I really like the inked stuff, I think it suits your style really well. I especially like the guy with the sword in the last post. Great sense of action and nicely handled foreshortening. His chest looks like it's a touch too wide, could be me.

dude you're on fire with this stuff. :firedevil
keep it coming
