Good stuff all around, Kress. The "lumbdroid" is also my favourite. Cool armour design on the last one.

heya thanks a ton you guys. Really appreciate it. Guess I did something right this time :)

Rock - What can I say to that? Thanks man, I'll try to give you more to see.

MindCandy - I'm flattered that I get you excited to work man. Do it!!

Deth - Guess what, "mechanincal pencil on printer paper" is just about right :p I don't have a normal white sketchbook right now but I did have all these printer paper scraps and a clipboard. I kinda' like it actually, I'm not too stressed about making a "perfect" drawing in a book and if something sucks I just recycle the page. Yea and I have a favorite drafting mechanical pencil, metal and sturdy, 3b lead...

cheers all.

hell yeah!

I feel the same way.. I use to use sketchbooks, but I would always have these pages I hated.. so I started using printer paper, cause it was handy and smooth.. kinda got to liking it.. plus when you scan it, you dont get those dusty scratches.. :)

peace.

Oh boy...Kress is at it again! Man oh man, that is some nice work. What I like about your sketches is not only the quality of line but the ideas you pump out. Can't get enough weird and wonderful creatures, that's for sure!

I feel the same way about sketchbooks vs. printer paper. I think most of the time printer paper is all I use. Same as you, with a clipboard. I am king of printer paper scraps and post it notes! LOL!

Anyway, thanks for sharing Kress, great stuff!

god. what is there to say? these are just awesome. I truely hope i can get here someday.

here's a challeng for your next ones. do some with open hands. i hate drawing hands, and usually fist all mine also, i'd love to see some beautiful open hands on some of your chars.

keep posting bro, you're inspiring us all!

hey they thanks again all, seriously :D

Deth - it's so much simpler isn't it?

Smeagol - Thanks a lot dude. It's scary though, cuz I never know when a decent idea is going to come again. I tried to draw all day yesterday, for example, and nothing happened :rolleyes: And yes, it's all about the clipboard. :D

Chaser - I'm tryin' buddy, I'm tryin'...

metalwinds - thanks, me too! :p

Atomic - I'm flattered to be an inspiration. All you have to do is keep doing it. You'd laugh your ass off at my early drawings. About the hands, it's a good idea. I'd like to draw some guys with things floating over their open hands... Thanks again.

R_M - err, uhm, thanks! hehe.

Joe, your a mad man, you know that..

Good pencils, keep comics as a sideline, guy with your pencil work could be of interest in a comicshop:) But keep the concept thing goin' as well:)
