Hey All, I'm new here. I myself tend to draw using traditional methods like pencil, paint, etc. Only recently I bought a WACOM and found that you can do wonders with it. Anywayz, here's a piece I recently did.

I like drawing realistic stuff, more so than cartoonish stuff, especially body builders. If you want to know anatomy, especially muscles, you just have to stare at these monstrous guys.
Anywayz, C & C is welcome and I have seen everyone esles work on here so far and it is all very impressive. Thanks for crits and such.

Hee hee, the whole drawing's skewed to the right. :) the leather textures are nice, (photo?) but they kind of flatten out the image. what's going on on his helmet? It looks like his head doesn't come up as high as it should.

this is nitpicking of course... on my first look I was blown away. keep posting!

The reason the drawing looks skewed to the right because he is actually leaning on one leg. I was going to post the whole portion of him but I haven't gotten around to finishing his body yet, so in the pic his left arm is lower than his right arm because he is leaning on one leg. I see what you mean about his head being a little bit small, but people have different sized heads don't they? :) He's meant to be bald anyway. I was going to have the visor covering all of his face but I erased it because I wanted his face to be seen and not blurred behind the visor.
The texture is from a photo. I kind of like the leather texture overlayed like that because it brings out the realism more. Anywayz, thats just me. But thanks for the comment!
