I decided to do a 40k sketch after seeing some of psionics stuff. I just can't seem to get his right arm (mainly the bicept) looking okay.

Hey nick!
I'm no expert on anatomy (by ANY stretch of the imagination ), but I think you want to bring the forearm down a little and closer to the torso. As it is at the moment, the forearm looks uncomfortable being "straight on" to the viewer like that - his elbow is acting like a Universal Joint which isn't good. The upper arm has to go into the "back" of the forearm, and you've got it going into the side - the upper arm should be more front-on, like the forearm.
This probably makes no sense - I'll do a sketch as soon as I FINALLY get my PC setup. That could take a while tho, so please, other people, dive right in!
I only really posted this to say "Hi", and
"H A P P Y 2 1 s t B I R T H D A Y !"
phew, glad I got that off my chest! I'll get ICQ setup again sometime soon - sorry I couldn't be there on monday!
Okay, I'll stop blatantly abusing this forum, and sign off with a final pic comment - the left arm is waaay too short. I'm not sure if it's just the gauntlet, but there seems to be no upper arm there at all!
Right. Bye bye ceenda - later!

JayBee: He he, thanks. Monday was great. Mind you, the pint of Caffreys + Aftershocks + Tequila left a rather bad taste in my mouth...
:O ...ooooOOOOOOO
Bizarde: That is fantastic!!! That is exactly the kind of stance I'm aiming for. My landscapes and backgrounds are usually okay but my portraits sometimes suck so I need to practice.
Also, I have a new WACOM to practice on.  |

Bizarde: shouldn't the right hand be rotated by 180 degree (and the arm in the proper position)? |

Bizarde's sketch is cool but the guy's right arm makes it look like he's dancing or something :-P

Bizarde, I really like your anatomy and line work in that picture. However, I think the pose you put him in doesn't fit the character. It is a little... girly. I can't find the right word for what I'm saying. This guy is in the army, and should have a more solid pose (like ceenda's one) |

Hmm, ceenda, nice work, but i don't think its the arm on the left thats doing the trouble, i think the arm on the right is too thick, it sets off the proportion of the other arm, try making it a bit skinnier. And also why does one arm have a glove and the other doesn't that could probably mess u upo on the proportion too, make the arms in proportion, then draw the glove over it. Nice Site

Bizarde, your style absolutely rocks, do you do animation? I get Aeon Flux nostalgic every time i look at your stuff. |

He he, no apology necessary bizarde!
I look at your sketches and think, wow, that is inspiring. You seem to get the sense of action just right in your pics.
I'm going for a Sijun sabbatical(holiday) to try and work on some new stuff.
In the meantime, here's a work in progress pic that I've kinda stopped working on.
See you around people!

The right arm is a bit out of line, maybe making it longer because I do not see any form of a elboy in there. Can't wait to see the finished product. Nice castle picture also, reminds me of that video game called worms, anyone ever played it?
