Description
ok, i finally finished it. it's a fan pic for Metroid and Megaman X. sadly, I'm not really satisfied with it, as there's a lot i could have done to make it better, but anyway.... This is a kiriban for , though something of an improper one.... heh.per usual, i scanned an original drawing and totally re-did it on Photoshop. and no, you don't have to tell me how much i really need to learn the program. totally edited some parts out, created a new (albiet longer) way to shade, and had some adventure turning it into what you see here.
Things you don't need to point out: 1, the shading and light source, 2 how unbalanced it really is, and 3 how redundant my gallery's really getting. so there.
One other thing, sorry ~Tears-of-Angels for taking so long and for it not being an original character. anyway, enjoy.

Y'know, they probably would. It'd be a really cool team up, though. Mavericks, metroids, and another Zero death/resurrection would round out the tally nicely.

I have purchased three items off of Ebay .. not with a credit card but with money order and had zero problem.. the items I purchased were as advertised and in good condition.. all I am saying is that is one place where you would be certain to find it and at a cheap price.

You finally put something new up! YAY
Haven't seen any art from you for ages! This is great, but you asked for advanced critique. How can you ask for that when you've already pointed out it's only shortcomings?
Yeah, I might have done something a bit more interesting in the background but besides that.
Hey guess what? My bro is taking part in the superchallenge at Knox on Sunday. Tim's in the finals. This is a Gamecube comp that you play on the V-Max screen. It's so cool. It's just playing Double Dash, smash bros melee, some snowboarding game and F-Zero on the big screen against tons of other players. Tim's playing against the other top 49 from the 6 cinemas involved in Melbourne. He came 5th overall out of the 60 or so players near us and now he's in the finals. The winner gets a trip to Nintendo America. 2nd is a gamecube and a year's worth of games. 3rd is a private cinema screening for you and 30 others on the V-Max screen.
How cool is that? Sorry, I know I'm rambling on. Just thought I'd tell

for the drawing, i never put backgrounds... I just got tired of blank white space, so i finally put something there, just to fill the space
as for your bro, THAT'S JUST COOL!!! nintendo america... maaaaan do i wish i could go!!! hope he wins! congrats to him, once again!

Tim says thanks, but I doubt that he'll win. There are absolute masters there. I mean, it's the best in all of Melbourne. Still, he should do pretty well.

For shading this time i used darker versions of my base colors. if I had spent a few extra mins (read: hours) on it, i could have gotten something of a metallic shine... *sigh* ok, i'm done with the whiny!
