Let me know what you think.

Thanks,

This is coming along really nicely since the last post I saw.
My only beef is that maybe the Space Marines head is too small for the bulk of his body. Love the mo

this is pretty slick. interesting designs...clean pencils. but there are a few things bothering me just a bit...

this is just my own opinion...but while the drawing gets the job done... i feel it could be "punched up" a little more. make it more..dynamic, more visually striking. like..make the spikes more pointy...the skull accessories on thier outfits more menacing..the monster guys face more scary.... things like that. to ME...they are just..there. it gets the job done..like i said. and again..this is just personal, but a little more dynamic design might help.

compositionally, the more i looked at it...some weirdness cropped up. the monster guy kinda vanishes below his waist.. im not sure what we are looking where his legs should be.(wait...upon looking again just now..i see smoke, rocks, and then leg shadows. okay..i think i get it) but still...it was kinda hard to see.
and the monster guys right arm doesnt seem to have a hand holding the gun. is that what its supposed to be? if it is...it doesnt really read that way. at a glance, its an arm holding a gun...but looking closer, they are just to shapes next to each other that i ASSUME has a hand, or soemthing there.

and that rocky formation separating them is weird. size comparisons kinda dont make sense. i dont see the reason for there to be a rocky formation BETWEEN them. all it does is block the monster figure.

the human guy looks kinda dispraportionate(fuck did i spell that right!?!) but it still works for me style wise.

still...slick art and neat designs. prety cool overall.

This is great. what a fun piece.

Not the kind of genre I usually pay much attention to but I like how you handled it. It makes me curious to know more about Warhammer (which I've heard of, but barely know what it is.)

I disagree about the "punching up". I mean there might be some trouble areas here and there, but the overall effect is working.
