I love the use of colour in this image. The red on black and the sky gradient makes it stand out alot.

Holy cow, bud--this is sweet! I love the fact that, although you were obviously trying something different, it still has the same feel as your other work. As usual, excellent color choice. I love all the stuff going on in the windows.

Sometimes those "last minute" things really work out.
You're most welcome.

Again, marvellous work, incredibly time-taking and exhausting, I imagine!

I was going to say sin city.. I think it would be more effecive with just the main female character and not the blue one... imo

Very nice piece! It's good that you try new things with your artwork, it really turns out great! As always, the detail is amazing! I really like the colors, too. This piece pretty much sums up the world: pain. love. hate. beauty. war. violence.

Why thank you for your insight. Greatly appreciate it

wow it's great! and it's A3, you had a lot to do. i like the details and hmm, how do you say this in english, your drawings show that you also draw with your heart 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Actaully, the paper was A3, the image is A4, made it harder to do, especially the smaller details. I do have some larger A3 designs, but no scanner big enough to upload them, nor a decent camera to capture it. The scanner i have my eye on is going to cost me around £2,500 including VAT.
And yes, i get what you mean 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i'm also looking for a A3 scanner because i soo hate it to photograph my drawings. it takes me always so much time and it doesn't look very nice 
you're welcome

yup, sounds about right. Thats one of the draw backs from Traditional Art in general, putting it on the PC is very tricky and time consuming.

some wrong prespective of the face/head but i love the overall color/shades, great work
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The front woman, i have manged to capture the sad look. But the woman behind, i think she has a look of Owen Wilson. Thank you too

I love the concept, theme, and colors! But, I think the bodily symmetry needs to be worked on. Keep it up John!

Definitely some change, especially in choice of colours, they're much more lively (and the sky is kinda bloody) and you drew some open and real space.

This is an excellent artwork. Without a doubt my favourite from you. It very much has the mood of sin city (one of my fav films). This has loads of depth and plenty going on. Well done.
