about 50% done...
this is my first attempt at vector art, so please go easy on me.
alot of areas on the body need refinement, and there are quite a few paraphernelii that i've yet to add.

thanks for the comments guys, though i can't say i agree on either the chest being too big, or the head being too small. i think they're within acceptable bounds, but i do tend to exaggerate the proportions for effect. |

you`re right piter. The head isnt too small, he`s just a big guy:
But i still think his shoulders or his chest are too broad
urhm, what the hell, its just a comic, so dont discuss those shit ![Laughing](images/smiles/icon_lol.gif) _________________ *

Looks really awesome! The swastika is the wrong way, if you were really going for the nazi-ish look, that is. |

i think it rocks! nice one
I just think maybe his chest/torso is a little flat, and his waist is quite wide. |

thanks for the comments, folks. in the end, i realized that i didn't know what the heck i was doing with the rest of the body, so it's not nearly as finished as i'd like it to be, but i'm bored, and i must move on... so here's the final version. btw, i'm changing the image in my original post back to it's original form, for comparison.

I don't like this blue-to-black gradient on his crotch..... dunnno, maybe keep that left leg black instead of blue, or get rid of the black, very dark "navy" blue would IMO be better. Nice stuff anyway ![Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) _________________ a.k.a. azazel

Where's all the black you're talking bout? You must have a very dark screen, only black in that pic is his mouth and eyebrows.
Tell me, whats the lowest number you can read on this scale:

I can read... ah 5 and discover that there's a 4 next to it... but 1-3 are completely dark. ![Shocked](images/smiles/icon_eek.gif) |

You should be able to see the 2, at least 3... If you can see the first number, which isn't 1, your screen is too bright:)
Remember to get a good balance between brightness & contrast when tuning your monitor or you'll get very faded out grayish screen. _________________ Time out of mind
