pencils are as clean and gooorgeous as usual, but daaamn, the second photostudy in there is by far my favourite. the colours are beautiful!

[Pkmike]

Jessibelle: thaank you!

HEEEEEEEEY PEOPLE! thank very much for the support! you guys are awesome

had some college stuff to get done, but again, no excuses! been watching Planet earth, so inspiring O_O, SOO, I'm struggling with anatomy and structure stuff, also trying to sketch more, have a ton of pencil studies to scan, maybe next post.

[MacTire]

Fantastic update Mike!

One small point I'll make, that lower leg armour on that character seems incredibly bulky compared to the rest which is quite well fitted to the form. Other than that, superb rendering in value and colour throughout that update!

Keep up the great work!!

[warburton]

Awesome work as usual man, not sure whether ive said this before but i'll say it again anyways, I FUCKIN LOVE YOUR PENCIL SKILLS!!

Any tips on how to draw faces? Because mine come out looking weird and retarded. =/

[no87]

real great colours recently man. only thing i'm not sure about is the megaman feet on that girl lol

[p sage]

Love the creature with the goggles and two knives; looks solid.

[Pkmike]

MacTire: thaaanks man! yeah, thanks, I changed the boots \o/no more megaman fanart haah

logistic puppet: thaaaaaaaanks very much man! I gues focus on the middle line (nose line) and measure everything from it, something that helped me a lot was drawing my own face (get a mirror),hope it helped!

no87: thanks! yeah, changed the megaman stuff haha

p sage: thaanks!

hellooooo guys , the feedback is being awesome! thanks everyone o/

[Ven S]

Your pencil work is beautiful What type of pencil are you using for the hatching if I may ask

[NickyBeats]

great stuff man, really nice digitals! and the sketchbook pages are killer!

[warburton]

Fuck man, so much in so little time...I need to work harder =S lol

Thanks for the advice on faces, i'll try to apply your tips. Sorry i can't give you a constructive crit, i'd say just keep going as you are, you have some crazy skills and your working like a beast. Perhaps a tip which you no doubt already know would be to try and push yourself into areas your uncomfortable in. After all if your not failing, your probably not learning as much as you could be.

Keep goin mate

[Egg0]

Daaaaaaaaaamn, pretty awesome updates!, really love it, and a great improvement in this 5 pages, so, keep going, I wanna se more of this, cheers from a neighbor country :q

[Freemanner]

[Jasper_]

This is some solid work man! I really like that group of characters in your last post, especially the lizard man! Definitely looking forward to more!

[Pkmike]

Ven S: thanks Ven! basically all my drawings are HB (cretacolor)

NickyBeats: thanks man!

logistic puppet: thanks a lot! that was actually a very good advice

Egg0:thaanks! keep working too, it's very nice to find people from south america
