As interesting as your style is, the figures seem to be very stiff. Theres a nice textural quality to the work, though.

those r some really interesting ideas and images.

my only suggestion would be on your human faces. they lack expression and feeling. for example, the first image, even though your human character is being strangled, his face seems placid and expressionless.

The critter faces are nice, very sinister with limited emotion, hate, or even anger. maybe thats what makes them real monsters, not just rotting bodies, but lack of emotion.

ya serious Cos, if you did some life drawing for a year or two, you would rule. Because you already have a great, style and you like alot of detail. Your shadow is a good start, and i'm sure if you studied shadow/light, and painting...life drawing: gesture, movement, structure, and all that other stuff you would do some serious sick character work !

Wow, very good work. Great anatomy.
Gonna agree with previous two posts.

Holy God.

Maybe it's because I'm new, but this stuff is goddamned awesome. Love the first two particularly. And the huntress girl. This is gameshop book art.

Well done.

Thanks for the comments with these

Shaded - yup there's a stiffness to them, I agree.

Jabba - True I didn't play on the expressions with them. I do like the face on the one you pointed out tho. The lip curl and pissed off but scared expression works ok for me. He's not totally throttling him, more holding him up against the wall hard. The faces on the third tho I definetely agree, specially the guy in the foreground, don't really like that face at all.

Anthony - Man I turned 24 today, (happy bday to mee) I ain't waiting a year or two! iz u crazy?? heh, nah of course I would benefit from more life drawing, and studies. I've done some this past couple of months, only 3 hours once a week tho so that's kinda lame, hard to get that into it like that. But yeah would definetely benefit from more studies, anyone would. Cheers.

Bld - Thanks

Little Bee- - Thankyou I'm glad you liked them

Hey Cos, those are awesome! Great detail and expression put into them! Your syle is great, gives a really rugged sort of look to your images.. kinda like their real.. and not all perfect and clean.. but have the dinginess of reality. Great man, just Great. Reminds me sort of like vebjorn... only b & w =D

666 flat - hehe, yeah I would love to work on that. Thanks =)

Dryfire - Thanks man! I am more for that dirty gritty style then super clean, glad you like it =) Actually I have really been getting into frazettas work lately, which I guess is vebjorns biggest influence, maybe it's showing a little.

Lukiaz - yeah yeah, u always say that shit then u come out with the fattest piece ever! heh, thanks man! =)
