this last one is unfinished.. i have to spend more time in the leather seats and the engine below... they've been barely painted :)

thx in advance

[nayades]

is it so bad??

i expected some criticism or ideas for the piece... i mean i know im not perfect, but this bad :(

hey nayades.

the first two concepts are the coolest. the earpiece,
antenna and microphone looks neat. maybe you
should change his goggles, more techie ones perhaps.
but thats just my opinion. (i think i like this drawing the
most because it looks more finished and thought through)

in the second concept (dude holding guns) there is
something that bugs me, im not sure what. but i think
it could be the placeing of his arms.

the third concept. (bike) im not really sure how your
sitting/lying on this thing. but as you said, its wip.
maybe it'll show better when ur finished.

keep us posted!

:beam:

hi! thx peter. im finished off the bike now, and made a quick copy with people on it so you understand it better...

the problem is that my server is doing funny things today, and i seem not to be able to upload anything for the moment...

i can see what you mean by the arms.. i've checked the pose and it is correct, but perhaps the left hand is a bit too forced, showing the palm to the viewer. it should be a little bit twisted to the front.

thx again

looks like a neat character! I like to see skinny heroes ;) Anyways, I agree that somethign is funny aobut the standing pose...if your hero is about to enter the fray, as he appears to be, he wouldn't have his guns down at his sides - the farther you have to move your weapons to fire them, the longer it will take to do so ;) that's why you never see a SWAT team member take his mp5 from his shoulder...anyways, just a suggestion - i realize that would take a decent amount of redrawing to change, but just something to keep in mind i guess...also, that shoulder on the left side of the pic (technically his RIGHT shoulder, but on our left...) would be lower if he were looking in that direction - that would accordingly change the way his arms are hanging. Anyways, can't wait to see more!

[nayades]

ok, i'll have a think about those details adam. many thanks.

btw, is there other way of attaching images than linking them from a server??? the ones above are hosted on a friends', and currently i cant upload more - the bike finished version , and some more char sketchies -
thx

aw, crap, I cant see the last images, even If i cut and paste the adresses from properties. :(

I too think the charater is nice. The stance is very fine, witha a sneaky action feel. However theres some trouble with the underarms, especiallt his right - its to darn straight ;)
Also those guns are a bit on the small side, Im thinking especially of the butts/magazines.
The bikes color is lovely. But my feeling is that you should have laid down some more time on the lineworks before paint. The lines feel a bit too loose andorganic for a thing of metal - ok if the frame would be bulgy/organic, but the engine needs more sharp "techie" lines :D
Also there is need for handlebars or some soort of joysticks maybe?

Keep it up :D
