Desperate Measures

Howdy. This is a WIP of a cover for a short story I wrote and will be doing sequentials for. His left arm is intentionally small.:) Thanks for looking.

Interesting.

There are a few areas that I think need tweaking before you ink.

I'd say that his neck was a little thin -- and, as a result, his head doesn't sit well with the rest of his body.

HIs chest and arms are well drawn -- but theres something in there (that I can't put my finger on) thats making the guy look a bit flat. It might be the explosives round his waist - I'm not sure.

Perhaps someone else can see it?

Pretty cool. I like all of the hatching you've got going to define the muscles and the shape of the snake creatures in the background. I understand that this guy is muscular, but his traps look too big to me. Also, despite his facial expression, his head looks a little lopsided. The right arm on the girl on in the bottom right corner doesn't look properly foreshortened either. There are a few little problems here that seem to be holding this image back from reaching it's full potential, but it's looking pretty good. Keep it up.

Thanks guys, I definitely see what you're talking about. I'll see what I can do to fix those issues.
