    Kinda starting with this drawing of Zack, with reference of course, but still a drawing. Cnc please kthnx. Btw, this was taken with an 8 year old digital camera...so...picture quality probably sucks.

    Overall, that's a really impressive drawing! The only problem I have is the shadowing of the bone area on the right side of Zack's face (our left, his right). The part of the shadow where it cuts in is a little too low below the nose. That aside, the detail is great and the rest of the proportions are excellent.

    Wow! I so love this! Zack ish love-able! I agree with DC. But only thing that bothers me is the face. I can't tell what, like the face may be to, 'small'. Like it should be longer. but beside that it really great. The work on this artwork is fantastic!Great job. :)

    Cin, I didn't know that you could draw!! :D Moar plz!

    When studying this drawing I saw some random pixels in magenta and green, lol... I'm guessing you didn't plan that? *in before SA* Lined paper is the paper of doom! If you can help it, avoid drawing art that you are going detailed with on those. Sometimes it'll just bork up a perfectly fine looking drawing. :x If you don't want the paper to turn so.... non white... then you could tweak around with it in an image editor program - I think it should be possible with gimp, I know it is possible with photoshop.

    Right then, onward to CnC

    It looks pretty nicely done, man! :3 Especially the metal on the shoulders that is part of the armour, they have a nice shading and gives an impression that they have been worn out in battle. That's very good. I can say the same about the shading of the leather belts, it looks very true to the shine that leather gives. I'd just like to mention the arms - be careful when drawing a pose that isn't straight forward, the arm's lenght and sometimes size will differ. Kinda getting an impression that the arm behind became longer than the one in front, it should be the opposite. Part of the perspective rule.

    omg it is zack! this is actually one of the best drawings of zack i have ever seen. i love the shading and the hair looks very realistic, the arm on the left... my left, seems a little too long, as cocohints said when you draw a position that isn't strait forward the lengths seem to differ. but my final critique score is 10/10 since the last critique is not very noticible. I LOVE IT!
    i'd like to see more pictures please :D

    Awesome! However the shadowing could be a bit lighter though (could be the camera) but other than that I love it! Keep up the good work.

    Well I dont have anything too different to say from the others, since this drawing is pretty awesome. You should work on getting a scanner in the future. That plus using white paper would make it look much better. Everything is done very well and you did a good job on the shading. You should try working on some original works if you want to really become serious. You definitely have the talent so it'll work out good for you.
