Data Cowboy Dreams!.Update!19-May!-13

**JamesSimons** · August 9th, 2010, 12:48 AM

Hello my name is James.

I have been drawing for the past 5-6 years but I’ve only gotten serious in the last 3.
I hope to use this sketchbook to develop my skills in the field of comics and illustration amongst other things and to get Critiques.

**Just Call Me Bruce!** · January 16th, 2011, 04:08 AM

I could hardly bear the wait!
Tanks a nice update there bro!

**adamsimons** · January 16th, 2011, 07:11 AM

the main character in the tank piece was left with out any colour!
I look over at what doing from time to time and when I see you working on a charming image like this one, i can imagine what it will look like after the next level of finish is applied.
you often stop here though (I can understand why(from experience)).
on the next one I want to see it taken to the next level(even(especially)if its too hard)!
