Thanks Zindy! I'm trying to improve and get better with colors. It's also nice to work on subjects not many artists would try.

Well, I think you are great already... your rainbow work with boa is some of my faves from you.
I think it's just a manner of taste, for me it would feel weird to draw a boxer, just not my theme at all
But you do great, really Get your own website soon and I would love to feature you as artist of the month.

Wow, Man, you're back with a bang! This looks incredible, I just don't understand how you get all these effects with pens! Love the lighting. And how did you do the background?

MLBOA In reply to Coralay [2007-10-11 13:22:33 +0000 UTC]

Thanks Coralay! I don't know really! I just seem to work very well with pens! For the background I used a black felt tip pen and shaded about 3 layers. I then went over it with a black biro pen for another 3 layers! It took ages to finish!

Even in fullview it still looks like a photo! Amazing as always. The skin is beautiful, I love the texture. The way you have done the muscles is amazing too, I really, really like them. I also am very fond of how you drew the boxing gloves, you can almost feel the material on them. Well done.
