I like them.  My one criticism is that the equipment belt on the cop may look better with more contrast between it and the pants.  Perhaps as if it was shiney black leather...

Something like this maybe?

Not keen sorry, painting is very abstract and kinda like fairoak's cartoon style, but not to his execution, and but just doesn't feel right sorry. Ray/Shaun in particular looks quite poor I have to say. Sorry sometimes it's postive, sometimes negative.

I can't advise you on how to improve these as my painting style is totally different. Thin your paints and use good quality brushes defiantely and painting cleanly is the secret, maybe concentrate on black lining first and build your block colour up, rather than this heavy/artificial shading style you've got.

Offered in good faith not malice so good luck with the rest.

It seems to be one of those styles that look better on the TT than in photos.

I overall agree with the commander.

Hi thanks for the comments, about the Shaun of the dead figure, that's the way the customer wanted him painted.

Well each to his own, I know which way I'd rather have him:



He/she must be doing some cartoon/sin city inspired project then?

Anyway good luck.
