Very cool. Good job getting a character that everyone seems to see in a different way.

Awesome. The use of that brush gives it a very unstable metamorphosis kinda feel. Maybe it can be a morphing robot.

You're on a course specialising in game art? D'oh! I went and did an Illustration degree...and learnt... that everything I enjoy is rubbish.
Blast.
Perhaps if I save up (unlikely) I can do another course?

Reminds me of some evangelion robot. I chuckled when I saw the title "Goosfraba". Cool design.

hehehe. goosfraba is meant to be an old eskimo word that they use to calm themselves down in stressful situations! if you say it out loud, the sounds created by the word is supposed to have a soothing effect. It kinda works, hehe. I just thought the idea of it was pretty funny XD
And thanks!

Some more cool work.
You have a wide creative scope, you can work with a bunch of different styles with your work and they'll still be your own

Man I fuckin (hope u don't mind the vulgar word) love ur style. I personally love the whole sketchy/blurry look, to me it has more character than a well crafted "colored within the lines" picture. Did u go to a drawin school??? and 15 minute drawin, r u serious???

thanks man! glad you like the style! Yeah i like different styles ... sketchy/blurry being one of my favourite ones!
I'm currently at Teesside University in the UK studying Computer Games Art. But tbh 99% of what i know about drawing is self taught.
Thanks for the kind words!

For a doodle, I can't do that... This is annoying. People's scribbles ad doodles, are better than my full art... On the other hand, looks like a Halo 2 character. Cool!

Nice colors, and I especially like the texture of that brush you used. Keep it up (^-^)!
