Hmm, I think it reminds me of him because of it's sloppiness (no offence) and how you drew some things, specially the car, the pines and the guy at the left., but it still has those grey tones that you use a lot. Too cartoonish? Maybe I just have to lurk your stuff more :(

Ahhh yeah, that's another reason why I thought it kind of did too, it was just hard to explain. :P
Here's something else for the aforementioned band. The earlier picture was too literal I guess, seeing as how their name is "The Dead and Their Weapons" I guess I can agree with that. So he gave me a bit of a description of something and this is what I came up with.
Waitin to see if it's good or not. xD

Thank you! :D
They're gonna use both images I guess :3 so yay! The guy also invited me to be a part of the "Real Earth" family, for the Real Earth record company. So I get to do arts and contribute to it.. Weee! :D
Upon an agreement, we decided that giving him another arm and adding something in the background would give it a more "human" feel along with a desolate one as well. So I did. :)

You might want to draw your arms and legs in sections, rather than drawing them as a whole.
I always draw the part between the shoulders and the elbow (section one) and then the part between the elbow and the wrist (section two). To top it off, I draw the hand. It works well and you can apply this kind of thinking to any part of the human body.
Getting proportions correct has never been easier.

Hmm thank you much for the advice on that.. Yeah the (our) left arm was thrown in there last minute, so it looks a bit wonky in the anatomy. >.> Oh well! :P
I'm gonna have to try that technique out here soon..

It's like a hybrid between an AT-ST and the Gekko from MGS4.

Mmm.. Gekko you say? I don't even know what that is.. lol. I'll have to take a peek and see.
In other news, here's a +1 to my "daybyday" comic strip

Boop, just giving an update.. I'mma workin on concepts of characters :)

Working on my use of colors now.. This one's called "Trying to find you."

Well, she's not inside your arm, that's for sure, so why are you looking in there?

Well I checked all the obvious spots, and I can still feel her.

She's in your left buttock.

Nice choice of colours, but I have to say that this particular piece does seem to point out a flaw in most of your drawings - you get the light sources and shading downpat, but barely ever seem to refine those shadings, and it looks really, really messy most of the time.
That's pretty much the one thing I can identify in the paintings that could use work, at the moment at least. Otherwise, hey, great work, and congratulations on using some lifelike colours since fuck-knows when!

Of course! The ONE place I don't bother to check..
wait how'd you kno-... never mind :S

Thaank you for the helpful response.. And yeah I know I tend to leave em rather messy.. :< It's a bad habit, but as weird as it sounds when I get to the point where I post them, I feel like there's no more refining needed at the time.
Of course after I submit it and let it sink in for a while I look at it and go "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait a second..." and by that time I just think "Aw fuck it, I'll catch it next time" (cycle repeat)
But I'd like to think I'm slowly but surely getting more and more refined as time passes..

Oh well thanks for catching that for me.
And here's something I've been working off and on for like the past 3 weeks. It looked quite flat in retrospect, up until I started my new coloring studying.. With this newfound knowledge, I applied it to the image and I'm quite happy with how it looks. :) I'm not submitting the full version though until later. I have plans for it.

I figured you would have realized since you've been sitting on a slant for the past little while.
I have plans for it.
Oooh, I'm excited ;D
Here's something colorful! AGAIN!
And with their almighty power, the Gods tested mankind by throwing a fireball down from the heavens. Man simply replied "Aw fuck."

Dude your getting so much better. One of these days you will be up there with "keepwalking" i just know it. =]

Definitely. I can see him do high quality pieces like them. I'd like to see that.
So right now I'm at work and on my phone otherwise I'd quote reply, but I just wanted to thank you both for that. :D It's very gratifying to receive comments like that, so thank you. :) I appreciate that.

I'm enjoying what I am seeing. I suggest you keep working on the rendering. You've really got some good stuff going on. Try learning some ways to blend your strokes.

I love all your stuff, Rhunyc! Can't wait for more!

Thanks :3 And I'm slowly trying to get better at that.. >< It's very time consuming stuff (the act of blending my strokes), the way I do it.. I'm gonna have to find a better technique or something because how I do it doesn't really work lol

With this pic my main objective was to incorporate a 2-point perspective in my image.. I just started looking at how to use perspectives (weird, yeah..). Prior to this image, I've had no real set way of doing my backgrounds, it was all free-form :)

Here's a dude jumping through an explosion.

Not bad for a beginners' look at perspective :P
The blood does not seem to be following the same perspective though; you might wanna tweak that a bit.
The explosion looks great :D

Thanks! but as far as I'm aware I didn't add any blood :P
It's all just fire behind him :)
