Now, ive been draving for the most of my life... you need to add shades its vital for dimention... give it light colours so its eacier to destint between the shield, strings and the arms...

Overall, VERY good start the phalanx is superb! the hands are very good

im really missing my uploading cable, because i have alot of scetches like thise.... :D

A little reminder: This image is not 100% scale, the original (paper) in in Letter size, so imagine how difficult it was to get these little details, it's maybe enhanced in 200%? idk. I will make another one, but about an unit (which I had done until dumb social studies teacher lost my notebook :angry:)

I'd also like to point out that it's incomplete, but putting color or even shades may ruin it, so maybe the terrain will be done, and i'll say it's a finished scetch (Could become an EB ad =D)

EDIT:
Aprox. Real Life "Full" size

Good effort. Keep it up and you might be the next Pablo Picasso.

Yes you'll spend your latter years smoking, not showering, and painting a new naked woman each day...

Very nicely done! I don't really appreciate art, but I have to admire the talent put into such a work.

One of a series of sketches that ran wildly out of control and actually became decent.
