Description
ok, this is the last pic for a bitit be devastator.
i would have had him done sooner, but i was searching for the best paper to match him.
on a side note, putting the white in is hard on this paper. i had to go over it a lot and i'm still not 100% with it.

Devastator is my favorite combiner for being the first, the others are also cool, but this guy was the first, the original!!! YouΒ΄re not just a marker guru, youΒ΄re a paper guru, a robot guru, and a gel pen guru hehehe!!! Great stuff you got here!!!

I dont understand why half the time Devastator has eyes and the other half he has a visor

it depends on if you want to draw the cartoon devastator, or the manga/toy devastator.

what type of paper are you using. And are you using white India ink. I've personally had good result on many papers using D.r Ph Martins inks.
Oh back on topic.. love the perspective in this it's something Ive been trying to work on myself. Way back when I used to think that perspective drawing only had a place in cityscapes not so since try my hand a mechanical and Mechanika drawing.

i'm using canson paper, and a few different types of paint markers. its quicker and i don't have to worry about any of the color running out like a brush would. but i have a deleter white ink that works very well also.

I was reading Doug Chiang's book Mechanika - Creating the art of science fiction. One of t he tools he uses before taking his image to Photoshop for some tweaking is white india ink for hi lights. Thats the only reason why I suggested that particular brand of ink.. If found that on regular copy paper it works great, even better results on Bristol. But I guess it's like my Mentor says... Different types of media require different "receivers" : as he calls them. You're a little more advanced than I. I haven't been drawing since .. well since I quit art school 15 years ago. so I'm a little behind the curve. anyway im blabbering on...
keep doing what your doing. looks great.

LOL disregard what I said about the ink. Just looked at your gallery and I have no place to offer suggestions on anything. Your work is crazy beautiful.

Something about the pose makes him look a bit squashed, probably due to not being able to see his abdomen below his chest, but seeing his hips directly 'attached' instead. Perhaps also because the upper leg is rather short and wide rather than long. Not sure if the whites around the one fist help more than they distract.
Overall nice work though, detailing and shading is good; especially liking the shovel and background in that regards.
Given that you said you had some problems with getting the white to be white enough on this paper, what other problems have you encountered when colouring on coloured paper? Are there a lot of differences between working on different colours?

The white was a great touch. I recently learned that a little white paint pen can make a world of difference.
Also, this may be nitpicking, but does Devastator really smile? I really love the drawing though.

i'm sure he can if he be lovin the havoc he's causin. he probably stepped on a few people and likes the sound they made when he crushed them.

I'll accept that. I probably would too.

this shade of green dosen't suit him but he still looks good

the paper color is exact to the cartoon reference i have of him. i took it around when shopping for the paper. so maybe on screen its off, but up close its dead on.

well i have the visual works book and the generation guide book which would disagree with you. as i put the paper right up to the images in the book. so i do think so.
