I like this alot, I just wish it were in a darker environment, seeing as they're both stealth spies and/or assassins...But this works too.

The pose in #4, with him swinging his gun back, is my favorite. Good job.

A good start!!

Just my two cents...

Your spygoggle guy feels as if he is just hanging in mid air, there is no indication of his line of movement or line of direction in his body.

Is he jumping off the rock? Is he jumping onto the rock?

Where is he jumping too? Where is he jumping from?

You need to show his line of movement and direction by the proper placement of his limbs. As the human body always moves in certain preprogrammed ways when jumping or running or any action for that matter.

I also noticed that his gun hand placement was not in line with his arm. You have his wrist bending in an unnatural angle.

Bandana guy, I think should be placed further down the rock. Try shifting his head position so that he is looking up at the spygoggle guy. This should lead the viewer to follow the bandana guys eyeline along with the rock's shape, straight up to the figure who is leaping.

A humans first reaction to danger is to usually to look at whatever is causing the danger.

Keep in mind too that a magazine cover is taller than it is wider, so compose your image accordingly. You don't want the magazine company to cut your kickass action scene in half. Your image will have far less impact.

I agree with the above comments. The only thing I have to add is to give some space between the 2 guys. Either that or make them a bit closer... specifically where the jumping guys foot meets the other guys leg. Either show that the airborne guys leg is going behind the other guys, or put more space between them. At the moment, it almost feels as though the airborne guy is standing on the other guys thigh.

I agree with thw previous comments. If the background is bright, the light would also effect the figures as well. It is a great opportunity to really detail these figures. These figures aslo don't have any hands or feet. They are just siluoetted and implied. If these are fighting with weapons we want to see those details too.

At first I viewed this as a better attempt at poses than the first, but it's still very hard to find out what's going on. The guy in behind at first looks like he's throwing a roundhouse kick, but the fact that he's leaning forward, his torso isn't angled and his arms are behind him throw that idea out the window.

The foreground guy's right leg is horribly broken at the knee, and looks like he's caught in an awkward moment of indecision; "do I run, or slash this guy with my knife?"

Overall the initial impact is very dynamic (helped a lot by the diagonal horizon) but there are still big issues of "what" and "why" in their poses.

Snake vs Sam? I really think it looks like the other guy is standing on something , I know you are trying to find a dynamic pose, maybe hunt down some reference pics that are to your liking. I really don't think you should "hide" his foot like that. I

The guy on the foreground of the second picture's stance is extemely unstable indeed his leg looks broken , maybe reference that aswell.

Keep on working on it.
