Thanks.
I has always been a bit of a fan of Neal Adams, Jim Aparo and Wrightson. ;-)

The art is a bit rushed though, it's just for the publisher who wanted to see what the final comic would be expected to look like before giving me a go ahead.
- Therefor it's done entirely on regular A4 copy paper, using a cheap stabilo pen marker.
Hopefully the final comic will look better. (^-^);;

yeah mikael...i see a lot of wrightson and neal adams in your work.

very dynamic faces and composition...

i also see some alan davis in there too...looks good.

CY : you've really come a long way dude...i think you're in a stage now
where it's almost more important to you to get the idea down on the page
as opposed to making it perfect.

perfection is great but sometimes a bit sterile...imperfection gives life and
there's definitely a lot of life in your figure work...or i guess i should say a
lot of personality to your work now.

keep up the effort...the more things you do then the more you see your
areas to improve and the more chances you have to fine tune and hone
your art to the vision you have in your head.

i hope that makes sense...lol

it makes perfect sense to me...lol

i just get the feeling that you're really trying to get into more of a organic
style of working.

Thanks James K- I am at the stage where I do have ideas and scribble them down, just trying to make the poses a bit more eye pleasing (As seen below, is a very quick idea lol), I still have a lot to learn but I'm starting to have a lot of fun again. :)

Andy, that piece is inspiring bro, beautiful!

Mac, That rocks in all sorts of ways.

James, Great colours on an exciting page!

John, I'm in awe at your talent, always enjoy seeing your work.
