Did this for a friend for a fictional writing community...I figured I wanted to draw something anyways, so I'd go 'all out'. Riiight.

I don't know if this is all out. There are flaws...Mainly due to the lack of reference I subjected myself to. The perspective of the guy is off, the motorcycle, I find, is oddly cropped, I can't draw pants for shit, nor a crotch bulge.

References I did have were...One for the plane, one for the guys face (based on James Marsden), about 4 motorcycles which I took parts from and combined, one rock wall which I used as reference for rock flaws when creating a seperate template for the rocks which I copy/pasted in, slowly but surely...aaand a base ref for the helmet.


Rip me to shreds.




Thanks for looking, folks.

Apart from the lack of bulge (maybe he isn't that well indowed Wink) I really don't think there is much wrong with it. In fact, I think it's great.

I'm sure some art nut can probably pick out errors - I'm really not all that knowlegable on perspective or what not - but I love it.

Well done. Very Happy

I like that picture alot!

But there are three things that could be improved.

The blue/white top of the building, does not look right, because its not the same on booth sides.

On his right arm, the elbow is does look flat. This is mainly because the curve where his black suit meet the arm does not bend correct around his arm. I think it should bend around his upper arm...

His thumb seems abit flat. Acctually you would probably not see his thumb at all...


His left hand is abit to big.

(Also I think you should add a wind shield to his motorcycle Smile )

His left side of the face around the eye is abit to high...

Anyway the pictures is very good, and these are only small things...

IMO Its good enough to be used as a cover Smile
