ParticipantHmm. Joker meets Powergirl- not a comforting thought…

ParticipantThere's something very wrong with her face there… 😮
I haven't wanted to mention it before, but the faces are what keep me from being as much a fan of Sinclair's work as I am of Robb Phipps, Joseph Mackie et al. The faces are usually ever so slightly "off", and I don't quite know how to explain it, except that they're not quite as "pretty" as I like to see 'em. But this is the most extreme case so far.
(It does look like Joker's possessing PG, don't it?)

Yeah I have felt the same about his pics. the facial position/angle/size on some of his stuff isn't quitw right. some of his stuff is awesome then other pics look a bit odd.

My feelings in a nutshell… some of his stuff's awesome (like this one), some of it misses by -> <- that much.

ParticipantAlex, that painting looks incredible. Thanks.
I also have been pondering about Sinclair's work. I think he draws some women's faces too strong, with a very hard pronounced chin,and too angular. Also, I think he sometimes gives them male proportions. their shoulders are too wide compared to their waists. Even when drawing extreme muscular women, I bleieve that certain proportion concepts have to be kept. He givs his girls a lot of strong hard sharp lines, wich are often associated with the male body,and the look like guys in Drag sometimes. But, all that becomes more evident, when he gives them a very manly face structure.
At least, that's what I could come up to, after sometime wondering what was that made me not to fully apreciate this guys work.

ParticipantOh $#!^ I know Marcus. He's a fan of muscle gals. But he's not internet savvy. He's got an 'agent' to handle that.
