I'd say your art is pretty good, but you may need to work on finding an original style. Not to complain or anything, but it seems to fall under the "generic anime" category. Go for something more unique and diverse, network and watch those views multiply!

I know right? my highschool obsession with anime has ruined me as an artist, I will now go commit seppuku because it seems like the most artistically logical action to take from here....

note to self, develop eye catching art style, if fail commit seppuku

Are you joking, that is exactly what you do. It's good advice and everything but I don't think that you get to give it quite so sincerely.

Wait, what? who? I was off doing a mock up of the logo for the manga and I come back to this? I'm confused, like a xenophobe in a Black supremacist rally.

I have been deviating heavily from my usual stuff. I think you can trust me on that one. I mean, can you see how much my art has changed over the last few months?

Ooh...This is nice, buuuuuuut...do you plan on releasing this manga of yours in Japan? If so, expect to wait until Comiket or some other manga conventions there. They're a great way to get noticed (and your ass kicked by the copyright police if you're not careful); not that I have ever been to one, but you get my point. I would like to see this mock-up in English as well if you would be so kind.

Not really, the team just wants it like that, I'm using a more western mindset when it comes to this project what with the story being a Space opera and all, it's the direction the team is taking so I'd like to explore it abit.

If so, expect to wait until Comiket or some other manga conventions there.

Me and the whole team have been over the potential for being stopped by the copyright police, as such we've been very careful not to invalidate other copyrights, this means original Gundam designs, an original universe, and nothing iconic such as haro or the newtype or X-rounder idea.

Technically its not even a gundam series at this point but some of the team are adamant about keeping the name, mainly because its what the series spawned out of, we're all fans of gundam and this whole project came out of the idea for making a homage to gundam, in essence we created the first ever fan-made western gundam series and I guess we can be proud of that.

doing quick sketches on twitter.

You know I realized that the act of trolling is much more of a motivator for me to draw than the need to drawing something worthwhile and cool.

Hey emmettc, I remember seeing your work earlier on in the day when I was looking around at the unscouted artists, I really like that image you did of grey fox, it really peaked my interest and you should consider having a go at making more art like that, or at least use what you learned from it and implement it into your newer works of art, anyhow, welcome to the art forum, this is my art thread where I post all my guff, you should make one too, everyone in the forum helps out immensely by giving some much needed feedback, they sort of help straighten up your path as an artist, ensure you don't fall into bad habbits like awkward anatomy and the like, get involved I think they'll really like you here.

anyhow

guy's daughter wanted to be flash so I went ahead and drew flash based on her outfit.

I should think about doing dynamic posing, all this neutral stuff isn't getting me anywhere

I like this piece. I feel the indentations at the bottom should probably be a little more shaded in the upper halves of them..
I do have a question about why it is so many paintings are done first in greyscale before color. Why is it done; what are the benefits of this technique?

I do it because it helps me understand how to do shape more and learn new lighting and shade techniques without having to waste so much time, in the project I will be doing grayscale up until the end of the prologue, then I move onto color in the way that at the start of wizard of oz went from grey to colour.
