Real good anatomy.
The jaw could use some tweaking it doesn't look as strong as the body.
Great background, adds depth without taking away from the main character.

freakin' sweet dude

Oooh, very cool!

Excellent angle choice Dog! Your getting better and better with every post.

Can you darken it?

[DogSoldier]

Thanks alot guys .

This is allready darken'd abit , the buildings were done really light to avoid smudging so they did'nt come out well in the scan .

Next time you scan, try to auto contrast

This how I wish I could draw,Freaking Nice Job!

[criage]

this is rad. I've been admiring your posts for a while, dude. You're real sharp. In my opinion, Venom needs more teeth. Just teeth on top of teeth jutting out like an inbred shark.

[SilverSkies]

Excellent Pencil, really you did great job...

[Heathen]

DogSoldier i admire your rendering skills.

beautiful drawing.

[hydekomiksink]

Good buildings in the backround - the sky looks alittle empty

[charkxl]

this is great, always been an admirer, someone needs to ink this.

Nice piece, but the fingers look a bit off.

Cool stuff. Really my only complaint is that the pic is cropped so tightly. If it were opened up a little it would feel like a more finished image. Nice work.

[DogSoldier]

Thanks all for the comments .

larq2525...
This picture is abit bigger then what is showing here , i just did'nt bother scanning it in halves and joinning it . I just put the main drawing in the center of the scanner .

Im gonna lay off Venom for awhile , i draw him too much .

[smygba]

Razor sharp line work and good contrasting angles. I'm impressed. Not a fan of how you drew his feet, but that's just my personal taste.

Everything I'm saying here is in the context of this being one awesome piece of work ok? - but I reckon this is an unusual picture of Venom, purely because the bits that usually offer the opportunity to wig out a bit - the teeth and the tongue, are actually quite flat and restrained - maybe the head / eyes are even a bit wonky (though it's Venom, so hard to tell) - whereas the body is a riot of fantastic detail - the veiney bits on the neck and forearms, the leg musculature, the crunching up of the wall as he grips it - all fantastic... just feels the head is a bit of a missed opportunity.... imagine if the musclework done elsewhere carried through to the tongue!

i always enjoy your work. top notch.

[darnnellm]

That's AWESOME!!!!!

[rockergirl]

i inked this awhile ago for fun but i got better at it so can i ink this again

[The_Standard]

Nice job, good venome, I hate when people make him look like a killer whale, yours is cool. Slight crit, around the elbow on the right arm looks a little unusual but with that much exagerated anatomy hard to say.

[chia]

nice! really cool.

I can't wait to see the inked version.

It's another good piece, but there's still anatomy weirdness that should be addressed. Venom's left bicep doesn't fit beneath his deltoid (shoulder) right for starters.

The area of Venom's right tricep and right brachioradialis isn't quite right either. The tricep is always in back of the brachioradialis, as this photo illustrates:

I'll also mention that Venom's latissimus dorsi muscles look a little small, considering his arm and shoulder bulk. Larger lats are probably in order. Also needing a little beefing up is his left pectoral muscle (chest). Compared to the right pec, it's a bit sort of tiny.

Here's an overlay that might be of some help:

Your work continues to improve, but I recommend that you double check your anatomy with body builder photos, etc to get things just right. This will help you do even better anatomy in the future, while keeping your work looking sharp in the present.

Looking forward to seeing more stuff from you, man. :)
