Hi guys!

This is my first post to this forum. After seeing how good you all are it has taken me some time to summon up enough courage to post one of my own pictures for your scrutinizing eyes.

Anyway this is a picture that I started a few days ago, a soldier inspired by such diverse places as SWAT police forces and Starship Troopers.



Please be nice

witch! that you dude?

i like the pants alot - reminds me of those starwars concept sketches with the illustration markers. those things are so neat. i'd like the pic a bit better if he was aiming that gun at something or just another camera angle.

Yes it's me You visited my territory at GameDev so I thought I would visit yours

I had intended, from the beginning when I first came up with the idea, to have the soldier aiming the rifle at the camera but I couldn't get the right pose. I continued to sketch and finally this pose came up. It had a natural look to it so I desided to go with it and get the other details figured out at the same time. Now that I know what the soldier looks like on paper (or rather the screen as I don't do paper), I can probably draw him in a more exciting pose.

By the way, I'm still waiting for the Continuance of Koy

It's good to look at, although it missed
atmosphere and composition.

Thanks, that is definitely something that I definitely need to work at in all my pictures. I'm not that good at putting my characters into 'living' scenes.

But for this picture I think I'm just going to concentrate on the soldier as it is meant as a background for the menu in a little game that I'm making.
