First of all: Guys, I need your help, I would like to know what you think of this, genuinely. it's a crop from a larger image I've been doing since this morning, (explaining my absence from DSG's pages.).
I need to know, what do you feel when you see this, what's wrong with it, how could it be better and last but not least, should I go all out realism or cartoon style?

Story behind the scenes:
Two soldiers/ Atlantis guards have been transported to another dimension, the same wave of inexplicable power that made their civilization vanish, has also flung them into a world filled with vicious and wonderful creatures, their aim is to find civilization, but first they must traverse the jungles of this strange humid world.

The male soldier is a psychopath that'll shoot anything that moves. as you can see... -_-

and the female soldier is a..
well, she's pretty sexy.

~_~

anyway.

I do these little stories so my character have more life to them, it also helps me with poses and facial expressions.

that aside.

comments are eagerly awaited..

I like it! I say go for realism. Only comment I have is that the male soldier's feet seem too close together. He doesn't look well balanced for the action he's performing.

WoW! Tripple comment! [^ _ ^]

Thank you Jeseabell, and mucho gratias for the link.
I don't much care about maturity, sexuality is key things when it comes to art. =D
So thankies! :hug:


How do you mean her arm, is it too exaggerated? =)

great sketch man!
i think the arm is fine, its the guy is whats problematic

his pose is a little awkward though
maybe you should show what he's shooting at, so we can see hes crazy.

another thing is, that i wouldnt walk so close to the water if im on an unknown planet, especially if im a mad man. maybe add some more coast.
