Heh I wana see dog water god and rage.

Honestly though, it's hard to make the connection between the army and the character. I don't think the relationship is quite there. What were you going for in the image?

I actually wanted it to be sort of like some book covers where you can see characters/settings but you aren't spoiled about anything. The previous statement is also a lazy excuse to cover up my laziness, haha.

If it means anything, the army fights him in my comic and, of course, Long takes them all out with a measely dagger.

I'll be more careful with story next time. Thanks for the crit.

Well if it's intended that's cool. Not sure how to crit that though, it's just a matter of making it look very much intended.

Have a good second year at Sheridan.

Haha, it's amazing how much you've progressed since then.
This is an impressive piece, really - I love the muted colors and your use of greens. The placement of that army in the back is nice and subtle as well, it took me a moment to realize they were there.

Thanks for the watch!

I'm glad the army was recognizable since I had to make sure it was there but not take away the focus from the character from the initial glance.
