A guy is standing next to a nuclear blast? <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Looks good, but i do have some things i don't like about it.

First of all, the man - theres something wrong... i don't really know how to put it. I think he looks to 2D. I mean, you are drawing a 2D picture but theres something wrong with the look of it.

The explosion bothers me too, looks like something i did when i was younger, a nuclear explosion.

But otherwise it does have a kind of style there.

Windelkron

its not nuclear, its just a big fireball. the fight is taking place at an oil refinery with a bunch of oil barrels... so.. yea. oil explosions do look like that as far as I can tell.

and about the guy looking 2D, I know.. all of my drawings start out with just one guy firing his gun. then if it's good enough, I add in the background and other action. i usually mess up a little with the perspective in this case. hence the guy not really standing on the ground.

About the mushroom explosion, i think the picture would be alot better if you just erased the ( ) Thing the explosion would look very good without it - my opinion <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Erasing in some kind of image editing program -> Print out -> fix stuff -> get in again -> upload -> buy a talking monkey... its... um... yeah ok forget the monkeything.

I like the wall in the background, with all the bullet holes in it and stuff. Nice flavor of detail.

Abra

you like me in the background? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

thx,
that's actually the first time that I realized that I should put that kind of detail into a wall. most of my other pictures usually just have nondescript walls...
actually, all of my other pictures have a single fatal flaw. for example, I once drew one with a helicopter in it, except there was smoke rising from a fire on the ground, and it wasn't being pushed away by the helicopter's downward thrust... things like that... or sometimes guys who are extremely out of proportion with the guys next to them.. lol oops

DethGaunt

thats not how you hold a gun.. the elbow does not go down below the stock, it sticks right out the right at approx the same level as the stock

CoolCookieCooks

hm, it looks out of proportion looking at the blokes position and the people on the catwalk

Retales

For some reason it made me think: Fallout

Ballisto

The wall is nice. The nuke is cheesy. The barrels are pretty good. The main guy is in too stiff a pose for someone SHOOTING. And he's holding the gun a little funny. The other guys look good, but then again it's easier drawing small ppl (less detail required! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> )

The main things about drawing guys with guns: the trigger arm comes out <u>sideways</u> a bit, it's not tucked into the body like you have it. Grab a paintball gun and hold it, or do it with a pretend gun - you'll see what I mean. Took me forever to get that.

Other than that, the guy looks good, the other arm is beautiful.

Windelkron

heh you think the other arm is nice? it looked a little like.. runt-y to me (ie distended and small)
and talk about less detail required to draw the little guys. The scan was a little low res, or something, (or the picture's just smaller) but there's another guy in a cool pose, the fireball is overwhelming the little pile of crates he's hiding behind..

for the last time its not a nuke D:

CatCop

Okay, Its nice...
But the explosion ruins it.
Fix the explosion and ill color it.
