No, I'm not going to go into my job with a couple of pistols and blow everybody away!!! Just my way of dealing with stress.....

That's amazing, how long did it take?

I think it might look better if his pinky finger wasn't sticking out though.

Is it digital, and if so, Photoshop?

Overall, I love it...

Bye
[EDIT: Oh, i think it would look bettwer with some colour in the gun blasts also

Thanks Effigy! It took about 6 hours from drawing to colouring. It isn't finished yet, as his whole body is going to be coloured. I just cut out the part that was coloured, so I could post it. The gun blasts are going to be coloured as well.
Yeah, I haven't decided if I'm going to leave the finger or remove it....hmmm.....
Thanks again!
Kevin

I like the pinky finger. It shows a certain amount of refinement and class, a stunning contrast to the rest of the picture. I may just be pulling that out of my own head though. 8-) I especially like how the shirt seams almost like a second skin. Overall a very nice piece.

I cant remember what the name of the muscle is (already passed anatomy and physiology) but it's the one on top of the radius (the forearm), it seems like it is contracting but the arm is stretched out. I don't know if you can fix it but it should be more relaxed while the arm is stratched out like that, unleeessss he is just super gigantically buff and works that forearm muscle every day.

Anyway i like it, it has a great comic book kinda feel and i really like the blueish hue in the shading.

i dig the misanthropic patch on his arm - cool pic.

oh yeah, is it humanly possible to fire a semi-automatic that fast? (look at the spacing between the shells) kinda picky

Endar: I agree. The pinky finger sticking out gives it a "relaxed" feel. The guns feel very comfortable in his hands. I'm gonna keep it!
FrustratedARTist: You're right. I screwed up with the anatomy, but I guess it isn't that big of a deal, eh? Actually, you can't tell from the pic, but Maim is actually pretty short (5'2"), so his arms are pretty stocky. Maybe that muscle would stick out a bit. Anyway, thanks for the comments everyone. I'll post updates.

Oh, hey Vurx! Yeah, "No People", hehe... He isn't human, so I guess he is able to shoot the guns pretty fast, plus I could take the easy way out and say the guns are machine pistols (they have 'em y'know?)
Thanks for the comments though. I appreciate them!
