This is pretty cool. I like the use of positive and negative space, a long with the siluete of the character. Pluss how you pull the giure out from a dark shape. That's pretty cool.

Dig that color scheme, works very well with the kung-fu backdrop. Think the right hand looks kinda like a left hand though.

I am fairly certain that the left hand cannot end up in that position. If it is a left hand, to have the thumb in the front like the way I have it, the fingers will curl around the handle on the top. OR, the fingers will have to wrap around the front, and the thumb in the back, witch will not be visible.

Yeap, quite impossible . Your latter description is what actually appears to me, but it's a warm up anyway so it doesn't really matter.

very nice warm up. especially the face and the scarring. if you were to finish it, the fist could use a little darker contrast to make it "pop" more, bring it into the foreground with a little more power. and something seems a bit off in the anatomy of the chest. but quite impressive for a "warm up".. you gonna let us all know where we can see your commissioned work?

The fact of it being a speedpainting contributes to its dynamic feel

sweet paint job, great anatomy, and overall excellent. My only complaint, the stuff coming out his ears is a bit cheesy

When I look at the drivers on the road, I constantly think they're going to kill me because their driving skills are so bad!

I really don't enough of your stuff, so I think I'll do this one.

From the vein throbbing in his arm to the expression of anger on his face, you can tell he's out to kill...and I like the lightning effect flowing in one ear and out the other.

Gah, I'm still trying to get the hang of shading like that.

Your work always makes me jealous, because it looks so 'quick.' There are no wasted brush strokes...

No reason to be jealous of me (small potato with no real skill), there are far bigger artists out there to get jealous over.

Love the details, great painting. :3 Love the fist and the shading of his head.
I am not too sure about the surface of the shoulder vs the vein though, perhaps you could make that a bit more subtle, that part of the image looks a bit flat to me?
Other than that, its great to see your paintings again.
