Thank you!! Not too many folks recognize him in my avi...

Yes, not many indeed...I have the complete series uncut with bilingual language tracks. I didn't realize most of the music in the dub was the same as the original save for the lyrics. The box set was only like $40 too on Ebay, sealed.

I just got the first three books, not long ago. Partially to help me with japanese but mainly cause its outlaw star. Gene seems to have a lot more sex then what they showed in the anime, or at least the us version.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, they really cut up the US version. Boy has the original version...raised some eyebrows!

Try Barnes & Noble...if they don't have it, they can order it in. That's how I've gotten my Saiyuki books.

Oh but I'm in japan for a few months, so there isn't any barnes and nobles here, I think

Oh, I envy you! But you could try either Amazon.com or B&N online...

That background looks AWESOME! It's perfect!

Glad ya like it! Hope it cheers you up so you get better faster!

That was my thought....they drew him very buff looking in the anime, too! I just kept that feel, and tried to make him a tad more realistic, but not average.

I think those body-builders look ugly (in real life)
That isn't pretty body
especially with female body-builders
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I do, too! But I drew Gene as a young man who probably does weights to get the girls....after all, he is cocky and a tad vain.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, he is...loves his booze and women....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yah, but it's the journey he takes, and how he changes, that makes him interesting.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
changes how?
From good guy to a pig or vice versa?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He becomes a better person.

You're getting better at this. Some crits, as always.
*the red lines on the shirt should follow the curves of his musculature
*his head seems a bit too small for the rest of his body
*the thumb on that left hand protrudes a bit oddly
All in all, it's pretty cool. You're more of a soft colour type, so it's hard for me to critique the technique simply because I prefer to use others
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
As always, your crits are appreciated, although I wish I could have gotten some input from you earlier in the process! I suspected the red on his shirt was a bit off once I started on colour...*sighs*...it's astounding how much I see when I get colours done. The other two kinda ran away with me...got too deep into it to be able to change them, but at least my hands are improving!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sorry. Haven't been around that much lately, as I'm sure you're aware.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yah, I noticed! 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, as long as the effort to progress is ever-present
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I actually like how his face came out enough to be tempted to change my avatar....I've never had one I liked that much! Maybe I should do a new Kurama for my avatar....

The more you draw, the more you improve
