I would like to see the end too Pimp, unfortunately I really have no idea when this project will ever get finished… 🙁

Heh, I only argued with the bot to see if I could get some funny responses.  Don't worry you're not gay Lingster.  I was hoping that by talking to it, it would be 'learning' to become smarter hopefully.  Maybe we can convert it to like muscles!

Fbbfan, thank you so much for sharing your clips on Youtube, but I do have one big question that I'm hoping our FBB savants could answer.

The girl Teresa in the Maury show is absolutely gorgeous, and I know I have seen her before!  But the question is where have I seen her!?  I checked AMG-LITE to no avail but I know I had seen this Teresa girl on a website somewhere, but I can't remember where!

If you folks could help out I'd greatly appreciate it.

😆 I like the modifactions you made to the original Scoundrel and Cancuz pictures, great job! 😮 😀 🙂

I got ya now, I'm a bit mixed on it though, as I do like line art but at the same time I like great color as well.  Well anyway, keep up the good work!

The linework was done in paint, the coloring was all done in photoshop however.  Thanks for the compliments though!

Kusanagi,

I've been looking at your pictures for the past couple of months to see if there would be any dynamic change in what you draw or how you draw it.

This is just my own personal opinion, but I know a fair bit of muscle artwork since I've been around since '96.  The thing about your artwork is that it's always the same pose over and over again, there's never any differentation between the poses that give it more action, movement, or even life.  If I had to compared you to an artist, it'd probably be Iczerman, because he too re-uses the same poses over and over again.

This to me is boring, sure the physique could be great, the expression could be cute, but if it's just the same pose over and over again it's like all you're doing is changing the clothes and face to match the same standard body.  I'm not a big petite fan when it comes to artwork, which is why I don't pay much attention sometimes to certain artist new releases, unless it's done exceptionally well.

Looking at your gallery you can see right from the thumbnails, I even clicked on each one and most of them had the same pose just different attributes.  Sometimes you mixed it up with front shots, comics, but most of the time it's just the same pose over and over again.

You seem to like drawing, you got a good handle on abs and biceps, but make the drawings larger!  Give them more movement!  Draw them in interesting situations!  Seeing pictures that are just simple "Bios" are boring after a while, let's see them larger than life doing something incredible!

The ones that you draw larger than life, particulary this one:

Is amazing!  It's just a really well drawn picture, and it's very sexy with the outfit she's wearing, she's showing off a lot of skin and is even flexing to boot.  Now granted, it's similar to the poses I was talking about earlier, but this was very well done.

But why can't you have characters maybe lifting boulders?  Writing in notebooks?  Battling evil foes?  Modelling for a photo shoot?  Why can't they have maybe even bigger muscles?

Here's another great one you've made in the past.

I totally ignored the top panels and focus on that large image of the woman in black, she has a sexy look to her from her eyes, hair, and body.

I honestly think you have potential to be even greater, you need to push yourself harder into creating new things, experiment with different poses, body styles, hair styles, change their weight around, make them bigger!  Make them smaller.

I don't care, but I want to see something different.  You also can't use the excuse "I'm a sucky artist."  The only time an artist becomes "sucky" is when he refuses to try new things, when he refuses to experiment.  The artists who can get away with not trying something new are the ones who have truly mastered their craft, like Alex Ross for instance.  But until you reach that level if you decide to even pursue, you need to try something new and put more dynamics into your pictures.

It doesn't matter what comments people leave on your deviant art, but I want to see you improve on that strong foundation you have in drawing.

Michelle just is a lame actress period, she's not very attractive in my opinion as well.  I don't know how she gets roles, but she looks like she could be a tomboy lesbian.

Fasola I've been watching you're color works for the longest time, there are sometimes where you really knock it out of the park and other days where it looks like you're still practicing.

So because I want to see you color more things and improve I'm going to suggest a few things to you:

– It looks like you're obviously using the burn tools to add shading, though this is a great tool to use, you are using a much too severe burn on some of the pictures.  So I would assume you would be using "shadows" under the burn feature, which although can come in handy for obviously making shadows.  You use it throughout the entire image and this is in turn detracting from the illustration.

– You're also not using enough colors, you seem to put a flat color on the image and then just use burn tool to do the rest.  Although this is a fast way to get a project done it makes the color job look boring and lacks a bit of life.  If you look at DCM's coloring and Eegore's coloring you will see an entire plethora of colors being used to color their images.

– Also, you're lighting seems to be all over the place.  In your most recent colorization of Ms. Marvel it looks like you randomly selected where the hair gets darker making it seem like you were guessing where to put colors.  Instead pick a point where light is coming from and try to color in that fashion.

– You need to start using more tools besides the burn tool, there's a variety of different brushes and modes that you can turn on to give you an even better coloring job than what you're making now.  If you click on the brush tool and set it to "multiply" with a different color or even a variety of the different options you can create some truly amazing pieces.

– Lastly, the skin colors you're choosing are just much too dark.  It gives them such a severe look that it just doesn't look natural, it doesn't look like it would come out of a comic book.  Try to use lighter colors instead and use the extreme dark ones for very serious and dark moments.

That's all I've got for you Fasola, you seem to have a real -want- to color so I would like to see you utilize what I've suggested to you and see your newest works.

Cindy's my favorite by far, if she goes implants I will have no qualms!
