did you copy the sketch from the similar one of tychus finley, or did you come up with it yourself? if the former, you should try the latter :D

just used google images to search for sc2 images, couldnt find anything that was that big except for this one, so i didnt have much of a choice

i drew it in my sketch book, took a picture with my phone, emailed it to myself, then posted it here

I always find it funny to see marines smoking a cigar in their helmet. Yeah it looks incredibly badass, but you wouldn't be able to see anything. Your eyes would be burning with pain and good luck trying to kite zerglings with a suit's worth of smoke in your lungs.

Random thoughts aside, really nice work JMS. Incredible for just winging it

Marines are pretty starved in SC2 because after Brood War the Dominion figured out that there's no reason to feed them properly since their life expectancy doesn't exceed one day anyway. ;p

Use the whole page. It will be much more interesting.

Looks good, you should consider this a rough draft and get yourself a good eraser and redo that helmet to a fuller circle, it'd make it look 100% better.

not too bad, keep an eye out for subtle changes in tone value and not over simplify important features of the drawings such as the high lights on the cheeks/ bridge of the nose etc

this isn't really that well done. there have been a lot of better drawings on TL. Plus this one wasn't a video in high speed of you doing it AND there was not cleavage so you really have no outs here bro.

Keep practicing though

Oh come on man, you can't tell me I am not the only one who hates when people say, ooh its a quick sketch, 5 min job dude, it sucks.

Yeah well if you think it sucked so much you wouldn't post it here right?

Good job but I don't like it when people start that way so they think they can get away from criticism

Didn't say I think it can get away from criticism, I said it because I'm really self concious about my work, the second and third ones were not sketches, they took many hours. Criticize all you want. I only posted cause I was bored and sc2 beta is down. Didn't think so many people would be offended.

It's not a big mistake, because there are art things posted in SC2, so there's a difficult line to draw.

What I looked at was
a) the production value of the art and the overall quality
b) whether the artist posted it himself

Not to disparage your art at all, but I felt this was more of you posting a blog "hey look at a few of my sketches" than something that warranted a thread in the SC2 forum. You even stated you did not spend that much time at it.
