Description
Ever noticed how people with headphones on can be completely oblivious to what's going on around them?I got sick of needing references for every drawing I was working on, making scribbling at uni somewhat difficult. So I drew something that would require no references at all...
...I don't think any of those Japanese characters are correct
Pencil, paper and pens, cleaned up around the frame with photoshop (mostly to remove the marks where I dropped a corned beef and pickle sandwich on it... ah such are the dangers of lunchtime drawing).
Crits, comments and chocolate as always appreciated.

Haha, pretty much... I think this was definately a case where I was going for a general feel rather than pinpoint accuracy

Mister Smeal (Dojang) was absolutely right. Your skills for backgrounds and, quite simply, artistic feats of genius proportions are numerous and admirable.
You've a fantastic gallery and I would encourage you to keep at it. It will take you far.
Best wishes, my friend.

You're rather humble for creating such masterpieces.
I wish you only the best, friend!
Thank you.

No, thank you 
Well I've got no reason not to be humble... everytime I finish a piece there's always something I'm not 100% happy with, and I guess that the day I am completely happy with a piece will be the day I kick my clogs

"Kick my clogs?"
Hee hee.
I suppose that's a reasonable way to look at it.

Team mate of mine at work had headphones and din't realize that the bus she was on was being robbed until it was her turn to give up her stuff... so yeah, pretty oblivious
Awesome work as always... that robot on the right reminds me of the one in Dexter Laboratory

Jesus... now that IS oblivious
Cheers mate, never seen Dexter's Lab... really should look it up.

Looks like she is not paying attention to everything happening around her! Love the perspective and the robots and the fights! The fleeing crowds are very nice too!

Not paying any attention at all
Cheers mate.

Midget is hilarious!
AKGs eh... lively sound.

Yeah, would have done Senns but "AKG" was far easier to draw and I was feeling lazy

That "Hell Yeah!" guy looks scarily like Midget... am I right?
Anyways. Good layout and cool action in the background, I like how you draw focus to what you want us to be focusing it (in this case, Ms. Oblivious). Nice work!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
"Ms. Oblivious"... I like that.
Cheers mate, and yes, you would be correct
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes! Score one! If that was BattleTech, I'd be doing the same thing...
Do I get a

I dunno, try bumming one off'f Midget

Sounds risky... but I like that plan! *bounds over to Midget with a big foam hand*

HOLY crap-in-my-pants, that's amazing! See, what I can't draw are backgrounds. I really need to work on that. HAH, I love the entire layout in this. And the headphones comment is totally true. Hell, my brother is like that just when he's playing an online game WITHOUT the headphones! It's so annoying!

I dunno mate, you seem to do pretty damn well to me.
I find that a bit of 2x4 is pretty good for getting peoples' attention
Cheers

I tend to keep one ear free except when i'm at home- i am a total music nutter- and proud of it... except if i was that girl(wearing jeans instead- jeans rule!!!) then I'd probably stick on some seriously heavy rock on and leg it.
Damn it!! I wanted to call the 'F yeah!' guy!!!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh, I know what you mean... I may as well have the MP3 player permanently wired into my brain. Luckily my cans are open so I can leave them on and still hear people
You know... I've never actually owned a set of jeans? Weird... really should do something about that.
Man that little f'yeah bloke's getting popular
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
wow man, i live in jeans!- apart from when my mum threatens me with extiction for wearing them, but she can't prevent me from wearing them for long... Mwuhahahaaaa!!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Heh, I prefer these semi-casual cotton slack things. Loose enough to be cargos but well enough cut to make it in most company. Got 'em from Mountain Designs, so they're pretty well suited to our climate over here. That's the major thing I find wrong with jeans over here: denim's a bit warm in summer.

ahh... thats cool. and totally true. reminds me of my bro...
btw, is that Optimus Prime?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well it wasn't meant to be. I was thinking more Gekiganger... but hey, giant robots is giant robots
Cheers.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hmm... i only said Optimus Prime coz... well... hes the only giant robot i know... and i recently watched the transformers film.
and omfg youve never worn jeans?! ...no offence but that is just weird 
i never stop wearing them if i can avoid it! ...which is why school is a bit of a bummer. i hate skirts...

Heh, that movie was awesome.
I know, I know... what can I say, I'm a weird kinda person
