Excellent Cos! Your pencil work is really something special. Great anatomy work as well (far as I can tell). Is this all made up from your head? Or is there reference of any kind? It's really good stuff!

Glad you finally losened up. I like this much better than you trying to be anal. Great work. I'd like to see something more dynamic, also raise and lower your view points, they all seem to come in at the same level. Great! Love it!

Cos, you always astound me, outstanding work as usual. I really enjoy your style alot, especially your sketches, but i would like to see other themes besides fantasy maybe? Maybe something from current times, or future, or whatever. Anyway, great work.

Cos, is it me or you're drawing a LOT more these days ?

And I'll comment as I usually do (but usually only out loud) : niiiiice. I love the detail

Man o man,
I think you only post in order to make the rest of us feel like crap. Question: Do you use refrence or is it all from head? I want to know more on how you work since all of your stuff is so good.

It's always a good day when Cos posts.

Yoda- Thanks! these are all sketching from imagination.

Jucas - Glad you liked 'em, tho I think I've always been pretty loose with my sketchwork (looser than this even). Maybe you're thinking of the heavier rendered stuff? As for view points crits are noted, I usually have 'concept' in mind for these kind of sketches I never get very carried away with making them more of an actual picture piece.

Magic Macaroni - Cheers, yeah I have been getting pretty into my fantasy
and sci-fi stuff lately.

Egerie - Cheers mate, I'm definetely drawing much more often than I used to, glad someone noticed

Neofun - I try to avoid any reference use for this kind of drawing, to develop my own style further. I do studies as a seperate excersise, then try and bring out something I've learnt from my head. Tho if I feel I need it for something I'll use it.

Lunatique - Cheers

Wicked man.

You do studies, do you upload these?. What do you work from?.

I'm starting life drawing tomorrow....finally. Looking forward to it.

I swear I've seen those before...but I don't know where. D�j� vu? I don't know, maybe I got to your web site before somehow. :\

Very nice fantasy drawings! XD

Lukiaz - eezee bruvs, cheers, glad you liked em. I'm doing studies from whatever really, life drawing from this semester which is on pretty large sheets, drawing friends, family, from magazines, tv, whatever really.. long as I can learn something. Can't be arsed to scan big sheets to piece together, but I might post some smaller sketchbook studies stuff.

(Good job on starting that life drawing tomorrow btw, know u been keen to do that for a while, you'll love it.)

SG - Cheers, hmm unlikely you've seen these elsewhere as I've only posted them here, maybe you're remembering a previous sketchbook post I made?

Ah! That must be it...I guess I saw it when it was first posted but I didn't have the time to really look at it. ^^ (Dern short term memory. >.< Hehe.)
