Awesome dude. They both look like ice cold killers.
I love the hints of purple around, they work well.

Damn... those are some badasses that i dont wanna cross paths with!
Love how you made the guys have different features as other comic artist juz slap a different hair to the same face. Awesome poses as always!

And one should notice it! I hate how others do the same face over and over again... even popular comicbook pros fail to do that. Good job Gavs!

...And as for advanced crit, I think the guy with the blades and the green straps shoulda been in front of the other guy. He kinda detracts from the other becasue of his lighter arms and greeness. If the other guy were behind I think it would encourage the eye to 'flow' a bit better instead of looking at something that (no offense intended) looks a bit cobbled together.

Thanks very much for the crit. I'd say you're absolutely right. The only reason I put Kalum up front is because I felt like the lineart was exponentially stronger. There's not as much detail, but it has more style I drew them both on seperate pieces of paper (hence the "cobbled together" look), and I had a few scanning problems with Izo as well. I actually tried to mute Izo's green and balance it with a little purple on Kalum, but you know how it is
Thanks again for throwing a little crit my way. I thrive on it!

Doncha hate that? When you got inspired at the beginning but that's really all you got...I get that way with commissions sometimes. Still though, nice work. I like the purple highlights.

They're tall. They're dark. They're handsome. They can kick your ass.
Can't fault that, lad. It looks sleek, clean and to the point.
Kalum looks amazing. This look suits his personality to a T!
My only gripe is that the pic is too small! I can't zoom in on your great work!
I'm adding your entry to my journal. Thanks so much dude, I love it ^_^

I'm glad you think I did them justice I feel a lot better about the piece knowing you're happy with it. About the pic being too small...I can send the hi-res to you, if you'd like. Just tell me your e-mail
Maybe you'll be able to use it for something one day.

I do want to show it to the guy that wrote Kalum's story and I wanna see it properly so please do send it to me. I'll note you my email since I don't want it in public.
