well definatly need to fix up the hand holding the pistol becasue the fingers are way way way to small and thin
Also have you thought about the range of people that belong to this forum from all over the worl and also do you know what timezones mean?

Looks like this guy has six fingers on the hand that holds the pistol

its not the forums becoming lame. I think it has to do with the quality of your image. Or maybe.. just maybe i could be the fact that people are on vacations due to the holidays.

Some things I would change are. The thumb on the pistol almost looks Dislocated. the Fingers on the pistol really need work. Shading is a bit cartoony. Around the face shading is Blended somewhat.. then all over the body it looks almost like you got tired of shading and just layed colors down.

btw: i played existance a month or 2 ago... it gets boring pretty quick. I guess maybe they just need more maps or something. Playing the same map over and over and over again gets old fast. Plus I dont see how they would even beable to release it since they totally ripped the Matrix off. But I guess they are just doing it for fun.

Calling the forums lame and then expecting crits? Heh, that's a little short-sighted.

Anyway, compared to his upper body the legs look two dimensional. Pour some darker colors on them, much like you did with the upper body.

20 post? you wish dude! The reason why ppl don't reply to this pic because it is crappy. So don't blame on the forum, blame on yourself for being SUCK.

well i see people are still jerks around here lol. I still dont understand what people think they need to tell me my picture sucks, thats not a critic, thats an insult. so if you say it, it doesnt help, it just makes you look like an imature idiot. thanx for your time

The shading on the leg makes the legs seem flat, like he is a cardboard cutout. Remember legs has curves and shape, and you add shadow according to that.

go play CS or something

the anatomy is so fucked up, it's useless to start pointing out the flaws. the guns are mildly accurate in depiction. the rendering is shot to hell.

oh, and it's pretty fucking clich� and boring. now go back to the theroot.

That's not very nice. You might want to take your ego down a notch.
The anatomy could use some work, your lighting and use of shadows is adequate and you might want to look at pictures of weapons when attempting to draw them.
The purpose of this forum is to have your work critiqued, not to criticize others. If you don't like it, go start your own forum.

if you wanna be constantly praised, post on a fan art forum.

Well here's the blunt truth, your pic isn't very "inspired". Now, I know I am being harsh, but hey, I am not being any more quick than you my friend.

As for crits, I will do my best.
1- The colors seem drab, nothing catches my eye. Everything is the same muted tone.

2- Lighting is inconsistent, It looks as if you were trying to do 2 light sources one from the front and straight on? Hard to explain, but certain area eg: face & left leg present different lighting and adds to the inconsistancy of the drawing.

3- His left, our right, arm is much shorter than his right, our left.

4- Silenced gun is to large, it is almost the length of his entire arm.

5- Legs bow out, they go to opposite directions.

6- His right hand is much smaller than his left hand.

7- His right thumb seems semi deformed. Use your own hands for reference.

8- Background lacks. Just a simple shadow casting could help very much.

9- TMP second handle is out of wack, looks deformed and TMP body is not straight, it doesn't align with the barrel.

10- Neck is to long.

Continue drawing, more the better. Perhaps invest in some anatomy books. These are my honest crits.
