Ohhhhh! Very good....!!!!

I especially like the way you treat the black areas in the last image....and do you have her phone number? Seems like an exciting relationship, hehe...*cough*

The first one stands out a bit though, it's a bit too clear in comparison with the others.

Marvelous!

thank you..... more illustrations

[neff]

WOW!
Those are megacool!
I dig those wonderful Contransts

[Torstein Nordstrand]

Veeery nice The John Van Fleet influence is evident, though I get this Christopher Shy vibe from the more obviously photoref'd pieces. Very graphic, nice illustration style work, especially like the shotgun-totin' blonde! So which Rpg is it?

[nilpferd]

I like the atmosphere in these pictures! Have you seen the movie "Dark City" (I think that's the title ... not sure )???
It's in a special way comparable.

Great pictures so far. My favourite is the last from the first series.

[Giant Hamster]

Always gotta have the kick ass black dude, with the brown suit, bellbottoms, and a fro.

Like it's been said above, very very confident work.
Your style is AMAZING.

keep it up

Very dark game going, here...but I like the illustrations. Effective use of black spotting to produce the tension. Just to throw in something moderately constructive the blonde "shot" shell babe's left forearm seems a little short and uncomforably curved (of course, it could be broken...she has taken some hits) and the black dude's (in the white suit) torso appears a little "squwunched", for lack of a better technical term. They are minor points, and just how I am seeing things. Regardless, great work and I hope the game does well.

[el scoono]

Ornicar = awesome

[Xysryc]

Wohow...really nice stuff!

I especially like the movement in the second to the last picture and the mysterious face expression in the first one. Throughout a really nice mood!

[Binke]

Very impressive and original style.

[Futura]

Nice work,
I am seeing a VERY large influence from Dark City from the buildings right on down to the syringe the girl is holding. It is almost an exact mirror from the ones in the movie.
Wonderful use of colors though...
You have an interesting style going right now. Nice job.

lookin' very nice, good job.

[silber]

much praise in here,
how about some critics?
I really like most of them
though me thinks too that many have a "filter" look to them. -don't saying that use of filter is a bad thing, but I don't understand why you adding all this noise in there, especially in the second pic, on her leg bothers me.The third one of the second series looks like a "cutout filter" over a photo and than painted and fixed some parts, added noise and so on..
Please don't get me wrong, the pictures look really cool, just a bit too computer generated and less painted for my very personal taste.
I don't think that the computergenerated noise and the scratches( like in the fourth one of the second series) make the pictures cooler. It seems more like it should take the spot away of the actaul picture. Me thinks the pictures don't need that.
Me likes the last two of the first series the best and I think there is a good balance between computer and painted parts
(I know you did this all digitaly but I hope you know what I mean by "painted").
Amazing work on your site and great design of the site itself.
Hope to see more of you.

Woh, I'm amazed!
Like 'em very much.
I would love to see more of this style.

/e: Few remind me of those Max Payne-Comicstrips.

thanks to all... it's an honnor to be so well criticized on my work.
silber>> yes, from the beginning, i've sold my soul to photoshop... i like to paint, and to take photographs... and i like to melt technics.
what seems to be some noise on most of my low-def pictures is in fact a paper grain absolutely basic and that can easily be recognized ; and to my clients' eyes, it gives a touch to my digital pictures (professional obligations, by the way).
but i do agree with you on one point, i am trigger-happy when it comes to use cutout or watercolor filters!... you just have to see that fact as a youth's easy "r�flexe" , that will disappear when i become old and wise!!

[eBoy]

my god... I really dig your style!!


Keep up the very good and inspiring work!
