The Dragon's Amulet is off center and the Ratman has a bit to go before it's completed.
The original resolutions are three times bigger so here are the scaled down versions.

Looking good! Looking damned good! I am interested in seeing how the rat comes out. I love the expression the rat has on its face. So far so good. Hope you plan to post this when its done!

No ofense intended here, but if you haddn't told me he was a rat, I would have thought he was a cat (with buck teeth).

I have to agree with the first comment about extending the nose, very interested in seeing how it turns out.

Im not normally a dragon fan, but this looks good. (Love the nasty teeth). Only crit there is that it took a second close up look to determine that the green smoke was coming from his mouth. Perhaps making it a 'dirty gray/black' smoke would help define it a bit better. (Red smoke even, to tie in with the madgic amulet?)

I personally suck at colouring stuff, so don't take me seriously, Your work is really awesome.

Go, ratman, go! I love the nasty old scaly tail, and the motion of the pose. I think he needs more messy, rakish fur, though, and the material of his cloak needs more definition. More folds. Also, rats have more protuberant, rounded ears, and round, glittering eyes that bug out from their faces.

Still, great start--I'll look for this in the Finished section.

G_Luder:
Thanks.
These are images for a game I am working on.
The original looked more like a bipedal rat but unfotunately the previous sketch I submitted to the team was rejected as being too rat like. They stressed that the face had to be flatter and the creature had to look a bit more humanoid

lilsis:
Thanks. I'll most likely be posting the finished version.

zero21: Yeah I was seeing the same thing as you. I thought that by adding the tail and teeth it would stray from the cat like look.

Socar MYLES:
Hey the perfect person to crit my ratman pic!

Good advice about the ears. I will be changing them. The eyes were more ratlike but again the team wanted more human like features so I made the eyes human shape.

Nice work Raist, as usual.

Are you still using mouse? I can't imagine the quality of work you could make with a digital pen.

Bradford:

Unfortunately yes I am still using a mouse.
I went out today to drive to CompUSA to buy a graphire but I could not find the damn store.
