I've just realised that the shading on the retarded dragon thing's forehead is looking really weird. I made the bump on his head more prenounced just before I entered it and I didn't realise the shading problem at the time.

Fuck it anyway, done now. Does anyone have any criticisms other than that?

or even bits that they like...

Great style.

I really like WUClock's submission. I really like the way the guys stands and all the equipment he has on. In terms of martyisnothere's the fire effect on the feet of the his first submission is great.

Oh, why thank you very much.

In all actuality, i had several other ideas 30 seconds after i submitted it, i.e. having a navy-blue face mask instead of grey, a respirator, maybe some decals, etc. etc.

Oh, well. What can i do? I'm not really expecting to win anything.

Just work up and checked the contest thread again. That's a great entry, I really like the background in it too. I really should do another one, but I'm in the process of brainstorming.
Thanks man :) Think I'll pop out a few fun ones too, this contest's a right laugh.

Yeah, it's really a limitless contest. Countless 2D games to choose from. I'm sure many more impressive entries will be submitted from here 'till the 25th.

Not bad, Dave. I have seen that image several times before, but at the moment can't remember which game it's from.

Woah, this contest is getting insane!! Nice to see some really famous animators, like Edmund, Fallmann and Krinkels, giving it a try (and being beaten by complete unknown artists!)

^ Thanks. I fell in love with Abobo the first time I kicked him in the stummy. There's something about his head that makes you wanna lay into him. And here's the pic I based his moustacheless face on. Sorry fellas. No stache.

You might have done too many shades on the grey earpiece. Try taking two away and place a highlight on the top instead.
