    Really nice drawing goog.
    Loving this so far Des. I dont know if you're even wanting crits, but to increase dynamism with more than one character, having them looking in different directions or looking at different things sometimes helps.

    The left side character could even look slightly towards the viewer to engage the eye more (back seat drivers eh!)

        I always want crits - good or bad, as long as they're constructive (I may not use them all but they are gratefully accepted)

        Nothing is worse than putting up some art and getting zero response - I mean that's why we put up online isn't it, to promote ourselves and get crits, right?

          Mogster - I really like the way that is coming together. My only caveat at the moment is that it's a touch dark (but that may be just the stage you're at, so it's not a big deal).

          Best,
          ~S

            Yea it is a bit dark.. may get a little darker .. or lighter depending on how i do the rest of the lighting I guess Ie: his hair isn't fully rendered or lightened properly. I'll work on it a bunch tomorrow.

              I very much like this idea for a challenge! Definitely going to join in Some good stuff going on in here (mogster, I love those lights. they look delightful). To me, the loose side of his shirt looks unnatural (it's very flat all the way down to where it flaps out and suddenly, creases!) I wish I could specify more what I mean!
