ooo000ooo aaaahhhha.... Me like. its pretty kickass - Obviously he has no arm.  i dont know if that is on purpose though or if you just hadn't drawn it in though.. soo.. uh. I'm guessing he lost in 'nam  jk. *makes horrible jokes*- lots of dithering which is good cept for on his neck. soo.. uhh.. yeah. But you probably already knew that too. - even though his legs are supposed to be wide apart (probably) i think the legs are a bit too skinny. I think maybe a tiny bit wider. *sucks at c+c-ing* Overall though, that is hella neat. I love your techniques and style. It's very unique. |

| Yeah, I guess this is kind of a lame pic to post for C+C... it's in such a half-assed state that it's hard to tell what I missed and what I just haven't gotten to. |

Looks good to me so far. The only thing that really stands out to me
the dark lines around the eyes. They look a little out of place. Can't
wait to see an update.

word up homie g! This looks promising so far except for that crotch area. Why so flat? What's going in there? Also his left cheek look a bit bumpy. *waits impatiently for updates ------------- |

He looks like a monkey was his father and his mother was a barstool. Father - headscratching Mother - the legs (I half expect Istvan to make a peice involving monkey and barstool relations, only because of that one odd peice he did involving the nude people and the ape.) Thus far, it's good. Which is almost mandatory, coming from you. He's almost got the furrowed brow look going on, but it's too faint to actually distinguish it for what it is on the first glance. I'm assuming that the left eye and the nose and bridge thereof are still in progress. The one thing I'm curious about is what the other arm is going to do. Dual-handed head scratching seems most likely to me. One more thing. The hand is pretty soft and smooth for such an angular peice. Augh, I've got more. The face seems a little off kilter with the head. I.E. after staring at it for a while it looks as if his face is more on the side of his head than in front. There, that was full-effort C and C. ------------- "I was minding my own business and walking across a pebbled path, and a Duck started giving me the business." |

by the way, it's really nice to see an ACTUAL work in progress piece being placed int eh WIP section. I'm getting tired of all these faux-wip's. People seem to think that their first draft is always the last draft. I'd like ot see less of those and more updated wip's. People need to learn and grow from these forums, not leech for comments. /rant ------------- |

| Looking good, looks like corn-field he´s standing on but without the corn lol. Nice minimalism of the colours and the shading style. Do some dithering around the sun please :). Don´t know what to put inthe BG though. :S I´m not very imaginative hehehe. Hope these few ideas will help. Keep up the good work segdie |

Wanted to go for some more funky colors sucka. Ugh, can't seem to get this piece going... everything I add looks out of place. I just bumped up the contrast and called it good. Maybe I'll come back to it later, but for now I think I'm gonna take a break. 6 colors. Border style inspired by monsoon2d.

I see you kept the brow that looks like it wants to be furrowed. At least you can see it now, but it seems so suggest a frown upon the face. The shadow, as well, is a little botched. Or maybe its meant that way. Who knows And has Istvan seen this? he's the master of random colour selection. Remember the foglien? ------------- "I was minding my own business and walking across a pebbled path, and a Duck started giving me the business." |

Sedge, this is pretty sweet. It's a really interesting piece. The colors remind me of super game boy.. but that's fine, I promise. I was thinking though, maybe you should put something else in there, |

This one was really nice. Especially with the tiny amount of colours and nice dithering, keep the nice work up man
