You know, I disagree. I like the dark moody style of the second \'foggy\' piece. It gives it a bit of depth, in my opinion. It also looks a little bit less pasted on, as in the first piece. It a nice pic, whatever you might think about your own work. I never like my drawing very much either, heh.

Heh, neat. The skin looks great, and the expression on his face makes him look like an irritable bastard, heh.

There\'s some thing about it that could be improved though... the legs most obviously. They look ok, except that the joints in the limbs (elbows, knees) aren\'t obvious enough. For a lizard kind of animal they should be pronounced. Also, the back and front feet don\'t look wide enough. Animals paws and claws tend to splay out a lot. Work on the details and I reckon this will come out top class.

Yeah, thats the one. It was on the tip of my toungue (fingers? heh). Its an interesting design, because of the curve of the blade other weapons can be easily caught and deflected. The only thing that makes it shit is that every deflection bluts the blade, and notches in a blade aren\'t healthy for it, heh. Oh, and everyone likes Star Wars better. If I could invent a light sabre, even if it didn\'t cut things, I imagine i\'d be a very rich man, because even my dad likes to swish his hands around and make the \'vroom\' noises every now and again, heh.

Sifright - I see what you mean... kinda like punch daggers, but batleth shaped. Neat idea.

It kinda looks like one of those things klingons have got. The double edged sword-pole things. Either that, or a killer boomerang of some kind. If its the latter then I quite like that idea. No more need spend precious money on arrows.
