amazing. there might be a little bit "too much" on his feet (shadings) but the whole piece is just awesome. very very good, i wish i could use a pencil like that

Thanks! I kind of do agree with you about the feet but I'm afraid of screwing it up if I go back in there :/

You have mad skills. I love the realism here. How long have you been drawing?

That is a very intense drawing/pose. I'm so impressed with the way you captured all the muscles--you nailed the feeling of tension and power from the original reference.

I like that you left the background white, because it really draws attention to the details of the body instead--the eye focuses more quickly on all the little shadows and highlights you've so skillfully incorporated into this drawing rather than the background noise that would otherwise be there.

One thing, I think the shadows across his abs could be a bit darker--given their position in the pose overall and the reference picture.

Otherwise, this is an impressive traditional piece--you did an excellent job!

I'm really glad you like this The reference is one of the most amazing photographs I've seen in a while so it's nice to know I pulled it off.

And I think you're surely right about the abs... I'll try to darken those up

Excellent shading work! The muscles look accurate, try blending that dark shadow that's casting upon his shoulder/ upper arm a bit more so it runs as smooth as the other shadows, the veins are very impressive. Bravo.
