Well it's been some time and well, actually it's been enough time for me to start a new drawing, as you might have expected judging from my other pics it's not finished yet but hell who cares

So drop some lines about it, it's actually Fallout related (!) (real fanart!!

)
A raider in some crappy armor with some stylish weapons going berzerk or something

Mouth can eyes could use some more detail, and his right arm looks kinda out-of-place.

His head seems kinda removed from the rest of his body.

Incredible details, though. Especially the hair.

thx for the comments goose, you're certainly right about eyes, mouth and the right arm, these are the things I'am not quite satisfied with myself although I think that the look of the right arm can be fixed easily, it's just a mixplacement of the cloths cause at the time the guy didn't yet wear them it looked just fine.
I almost always draw a persons body first to have the cloth look right and in place.. well it doesn't work every time as you can see

But as I said it should be quite easy to fix, take a look at this and you'll understand what I mean.

Eyes and mouth could get a bit tricky cause of the hair, but I'll try to do something about it too.

No, I mean his right arm.

His left(the right) seems fine, but his right(the left) looks like it's misplaced.

Shino · Post by **Shino** » Sun Jan 04, 2004 8:41 pm

lol stupid me, but as I pointed out there also is a slight problem with the left arm

ok, now let me take a look at the right one.. hmm I think the chest should cover some part of his upper arm aaand hmm theres something about the crook of the right arm, something odd.. I think I should redraw the crook and do something about the chest

I like this, wouldn't have figured those things out on my own, I've had kept the pic just as it is cause I'm a lazy man

so thx for the critics!

pretty good. Some of the features look a bit crap, like the arms and eyes, but seems pretty detailed. Nice hair and pose.

Shino · Post by **Shino** » Sun Jan 04, 2004 9:40 pm

hmm hmm the eyes. They do look a bit strange when viewed that close but when I look down at the paper in front of me.. hmm I quite like that insane look.. maybe by tomorrow I will have the other stuff corrected though (as good as I can )

the uzi looks great detail wize, but it should be larger... and plus it's hard to tell where he's pointing it, try and clean up the perspective.

What's with the knee-pads?

Shino · Post by **Shino** » Mon Jan 05, 2004 12:40 pm

ok by now I kinda corrected the right arm. Giving it some more shading to put it clearly behind the chest worked quite nice but I also rearranged the crook and made the whole arm a bit smaller.

The missing shading of the throat was also the problem with the head looking "not connected" to the rest of the body, fixed that too. The area around the eyes has been slightly modified but it's hard to notice, didn't change the eyes expression though, tried to correct the mouth too.
About the Uzi, yep it doesn't point straight forward but I can't fix this. Erasing and redrawing it would leave deep shadows where the uzi was, but hey, he doesn't look like he'd be concerned with aiming anyway

I'll try to post the pic asap (don't have a scanner or digi cam myself)

@Franz_Schubert what is wrong with the knee pads?

That's how he got the job, Franz.

Did anyone notice the hand on the left side of the picture has six fingers? Just wicked

But otherwise cool beans.

The hair is the best part. Reminds me of the illustrations from the "Scary Stories" book series from 15 years ago.

I read those.

My favorite was the Viper. Come to vash de vindows.

pretty boring I say - gives me no thrills at all :/

EDITEDZ>
no nice lines, lack of energy, boring spaces - no background (WTF), and it doesn't give me more to think about then why some poeple spend so much time on something like it.

but pretty good drawing though.

Shino · Post by **Shino** » Tue Jan 06, 2004 3:22 am

@Kahsluk lol why the hell didn't I .. how could I .. sorry but I ain't got no explanation for this sixth finger.. of course I'll correct it but for now you can just think of it as a reference to the sixth toe in fallout2

@Evil Monkey.. er.. whatever

Pretty nice work. Expression seems more like he's having a dierriah attack then a beserkish one though
