hi everybody,

i just finished a series of 8 fullpage sized pictures for opening chapters in a roleplayinggame. I´m rather satisfied wtih these, as they are among the best pieces i did so far ... still i lack certain disciplines as you can see.
I really could need some crits on the pictures, thank you :)

all DIN A4 size, grayscale, done with pencil and Photoshop ...

first one is for the chapter describing certain larger NPC groups and organisations (showing one of them, the children of emeth at work ...)

Overall, pretty nice stuff. Makes me want to know more about the story. The 2nd and and 8th piece have some real value problems that are making it hard to tell what exactly is going on in them, and I'd have to say the 1st and 3rd are my favorites.

Really nice rendering on most of them. as lee said, its hard to tell what is being shown in some of them. the gamemaster one, i really had to stare hard to see the face amongst the machin-looking parts. you might switch to bared teeth, or different shading style to increase the human element. I kind of thought I was looking downward on a tractor the first minute i looked at it. i like the mood of the image with the rows of windows and scattered pages. the future world one is off to a great start to, but the angle of the guys gun looks a little wonky. youre definately kickin ass with backgrounds.
