i really like the gun designs, but i think it looks to much like an egg beater with the barrel coming out the end. nice mech drawing too, it seems a bit unclear on whats going on though.

yo!
i like your scetching style very much!!!! escpecially the first, very clear but stil scetchy! what are u using? markes and pencils? and how big are they in reality? (just curious)
..yes i agree with landmate on the second though - a bit clogged up..
..but the first! i like it more and more.. very clever use of color and black!
ok, i should give some criticism too ;) eh.. for the sake of presentation I'd skip the typeface and go for handwritten text - to give it more solid appearance.. or make it look like a form .. eh how can i explain? there are special types of paper for making technical drawings that you can buy, and they always have this preprinted "form" on them, like some squares with "date:", "name:" etc.. i think making a mockup form like that would make these scetches feel like they came right out of a hi-tech robotics company on mars! (the forms are filled in by hand..)

first off, nice gun... the only problems i can see are perspective stuff... other than that, its awesome. the mech's head is very zone of the ender..ish, and the body is very armored core. but its nice. give the individual limbs some definition and your set! BTW, your using prisma markers right?

Thanks guys for the comments, yeah I was kind the heavy handed on the second sketch and confulsed on the shapes as well. I was having trouble mostly on the mecha's legs. For the guns, I will watch my perspective next time, and the egg beater look landmate said is interesting. I was inspired by something I saw from Ghost In the Shell.
soul8o8- I use pencil, pen, and prisma marker like Legato mentioned. They are on notebook size paper. I never thought of using those types of paper for sketch, I usually think of them only use for blueprints and stuff. I will give it a try. Thanks.
Crash- Ah, Good to see you again here! Thanks, I'm still trying here.
Belligergerum- thanks
