Description
dont like the cliff, clouds, soldiers, knight - generally most things about it, except the zombie who i like. He took a long time. My clouds look crap and so do the soldiers faces. Its supposed to represent war and suffering, so thats really original....Related content

As an explorer of darkness I must say this gives a fairly good idea of what might go on in a soldier's head. I doubt any amount of training can prepare them for the stuff that goes on there, on the field of battle.

This is kind of visually stunning. Haven't seen something this gritty and intense for quite some time. You must be kind of daring to add so much shading to it.

id say too much shading, but its difficult to keep track once you get engrossed in a picture. If it was perfect there would be nothing to strive for

Nothing's really a waste of time. Regardless of weather you like it, or weather you're gonna post it, you can't get better if you don't try.

i like this peice ,its very thought provoking. one thing that needs improvment in my oppinion is the contrast and depth.the forground and background kind of blend into one another making it hard to see the detail.
when i draw a cloudy scene i try to draw the sky in a negative.hmm how can i say this,i dont draw the cloud but the sky around it.maybe this would work for you ? idk.
iam just a artist like yourself,i learn everyday and what i dont forget i use it more, lol.
new fav.

thanks a lot. I know what you mean. I got a bit carried away shading it in and didn't see the whole picture as it was progressing. Drawing an A3 piece with 0.1 fineliners is harder than it looks
thanks for the fav too

I really like the concept here. If I may though; instead of clouds, how about a
hazey/burning sky or fog. The zombie looks too relaxed and somewhat
bewildered as if to say "what am I doing here"?. You have the hand. This is well
drawn. You need to work on your eye. The expressions on the soldiers faces
come so close. You need to feel what they do and throw more of your emotion
into this. This piece has massive potential. I can feel what you are trying to show,
but it needs more deapth. Lastly, some of the players here are focused on the
viewer (me). Their torment is with each other and the eye contact should be
kept within the scene. Overall, I'm quite impressed with this and I am eager to
see what changes you make to it. I hope I wasn't too hard on you.....but please
keep this in mind, if I didn't think there was any possibility for growth here....
I wouldn't have said anything. Keep at 'er!!!

Thanks for the advice, i'll take it into account when i change it, although that may not happen for a while.
Thanks allot
