<div class="IPBDescription">Let's Mooove out!</div> I drew this tonight/today (2:50am) with my trusty mechanical pencil, scanned it and colored it (done at 3:50am) in Photoshop. I think it looks alright, but I might be a little biased. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

The knife, like someone said before, just doesn't look right.
The HMG on his back looks a little, just a tad, off center. (It looks as if you could see the bottom of the stock, or the 'ring' of the barrel, but just a little bit of it. I can't tell which way it is leaning more towards)
The marines face is somewhat bland, try adding shadows and more detail to his skin.
I know this is a sketch, but once again, I can tell you have talent as a drawer and think you should atleast see what you can do if you put your mind to it.
Keep up the good work!
Sorry if my english isn't perfect, I don't currently have my translator with me so if one or more of my speech looks incorrect, I will correct it later.
I really like the sketchy style, I wouldn't even call it a 'sketch', it's a cool picture already. The proportions look very good to me, except maybe for his head, which is a bit too narrow (just a tiny bit). The knife looks just okay (maybe it's a retractable one, so it was just extended out <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ). Good work!
At any rate, thanks for the comments! I appreciate them.
Oh, and yeah, I am the same Vandori from the DoD forums.
I like your facial expressions a lot, both in this one and the other HMG one. Very cool, calculating, tried, weathered, experienced look. Excellent, bc TSA marines are just that!
The HMG is not straight, the stock is lower than the barrel (you probably know this already) and the knife is a bit tilted. Other than that, this picture is awesome! Especially the shadows - thats the first thing I noticed. nice.
head looks a little lop sided maybe a little to long
the knife just looks plain bad
take away those little faded lines and u got urself a masta peace !
