Starcraft wow and much much more!!>
hey everyone!> i have been wanting to share my work with everyone. and i think it's time to do so. ;p. i'm going to keep this threat open since i plan on updating it with more stuff. the plan is to keep my options open. and i will be jumping between different themes/ games. i also do a lot of steampunk stuff. so there will be more of that as well. and from the looks. warhammer and halo is in the top options. ;p.

these are really nice
so far, you are doing good
keep going... don't ever stop
The one image you have, that kinda defies that is the one with the mechanical arm guy. You have a good composition there, you have focused the viewer's eye on the character.
So my suggestion would be to do many thumbnails and fast sketches to practice that, composition.
Keep at it, hope to see more soon!
i hope this is a better version of the space marine one. and i will try to do more thumbnail studies to improve them more!> ;p.
Keep going!
One thing that I have noticed is that each of your pictures seem to be really evenly lit which leaves them with little colour variation so everything is kind of blending together.
I would try adding a curves adjustment layer and seeing if that can add some contrast to your paintings. I would also try painting in some harsher shadows and focusing the light around the focal point of your paintings as they aren't really reading correctly at the moment.
Keep it up and I look forward to seeing how you progress with this
Wow. Starcraft. Such armor. Wow. Very zerg.
I do really like seeing some less beefcake-y characters, but in line with the other notes above, people who aren't in great shape are going to be expending a lot more effort on holding and using heavy objects. If they're meant to be well-muscled under the fat, you have to hint at that definition (it'll usually show most in the arms, sometimes legs). It'll also help you to come up with a reason as to why those characters are doing what they're doing. Is that murloc a warrior? Did he just find the sword at the beach? Does he really know to stick the pointy end in the other guy? A generic pose is only going to take you so far. Murlocs aren't that bright. What if he was scratching his nose with the tip of the sword? It's plausible, it's funny, and it's a lot more memorable than standing around with a weapon.
