[Avoe17]

[Dookiemaister]

you say you painted it? you mean like with a brush or something?

[DanTheDark]

Very well drawn in any case. Reminds me of final fantasy for some reason, im diggin it

[narf]

i think he means hes gunna color it

Yeah it'll look pretty sweet once its complete.

[Avoe17]

i just finished the head. im not sure if ill go further tonight cause im pretty high and pretty tired, so lemme know what u think

[MindChamber]

impressive, I like the chest area,

the arm flows into the forarm a bit, but you will probably separate that more through paint.

HAHA! as soon as i posted my last reply i started wishing that MindChamber would comment this. hope to see what you think of the final result :P

[Avoe17]

finished the shoulder just now, i decided to stay on for a little while

[Avoe17]

just finished the torso, but i think its a bit dark. i might change it a lil later

[TheReno]

I like the viking/kratos look you got there.

[SapphireLight]

That's quite impressive. You remind of Asterix, in some... odd way.

[Bolo]

Not enough foreshortening on the arm holding the sword.

who is Asterix?

[Avoe17]

the finished torso that i ment to post last night

[ElementalSoldier]

looks cool can't wait to see the finish m8.

[uyersuyer]

I like it. The thick lines look really nice; overall it reminds me a lot of God of War, especially since the blade is so strikingly similar.

[TheReno]

who is Asterix?

Its a french comic hero
Asterix Le Galois I think. Been awhile since I took french
Anywho he is a french man who saves people with a magic potion. He drinks it like popeye eats spinach.
I think its more asterix's friend to me. but yeah.

yea i definitely see the resemblance to kratos but this picture was drawn way before the game ;)

....oh and here is the sword and hand finished, when every thing is done painted ill probaly add some highlights to it so it looks better

[ExtraTim]

It looks really good, but good line art like yours is 75% of the awesome product! I recommend finding a tut on metallic surfaces and adding to the sword. Making it shiny would rock, or atleast add some scratches to it.

Sexy, sexy work. By that, I mean good.

[muchcoolerthanu]

looks hot, very nice

[Corky-D]

Like the Picture.

Why is he holding the sword at that angle?

It takes more energy and power to hold it that way.

Phail! The head is a bit out of proportions, so is the body.
And the sword is impossible held at that angle, when his hand is at some other angle.

But the drawing is pretty nice.

Please exit the bbs, his head isn't out of proportion, or the body, and how could he not hold a sword like that? And you have to remember anyway that it's clearly fictional, so he can do whatever he wants with it.

The paint job is coming out really nice, looks cool.

[Avoe17]

thx for the comments, here is the final piece, i want to add more to it but im not sure what to add. any suggestions?

.....P.S. sure he can hold the sword like, LOOK AT THE SIZE OF HIS FUCKING FOREARM!

[Avoe17]

no comments yet.... nice

[Zink-midway]

Well drawn, although it seems as though he is tilting his huge-ass sword to his left.

Although it is super huge, that may be why...

[TheReno]

Would it be too much to ask if you drew his second arm and made it appear some how? Its bothering the hell out of me for some reason. But yeah it looks good so far.

[insipidmortal]

i love it. the arm, the shoulder are both excellent. But i am having disagreements with the torso, expecially the gut, it looks to blurry and unshaded. Just a bit of criticism, but all in all it is very nice.
