While trying to work on my drawing skills(Computer and Pen/Paper), I started drawing one of the characters from a game I've been making for quite some time. I don't know when my art shifted from stick-figures and such to this, but it's a welcome improvement to me. Lost my mouse, but will work on drawing and uploading more images.
Here's the main character of the game; 33:

I need to work more on perspectives, and start drawing cleaner/better backgrounds. Oh, and make the guy a little more expressive, he nails everything but surprised and normal happy (Ear-to-Ear Grin works fine though)
Thoughts? These aren't really full pictures yet, just concept art.
 
I really like the first image, quite a cool macabre silhouette scene goin' on.

Yeah, I'm much better with computer artwork, though I only use '05 Paint. No clue why I hate the newer versions, if I could just learn to use them... Oh well.
Really enjoyed making a High-Contrast Black and White One though.
 
For some reason when I look at this it makes me think of the Gorillaz.

Nice job, Arc.

I thought that too, reminds me of 2-D

Interesting style you have here, it's quite different to say the least. I like it.

Do you have a story already written for the game? I'm curious to know more behind all this.

Extensive and basically finished as far as the story goes. Gameplay is rough as hell though. Might scrap it and turn the script into a movie, If you want I'll send you an overview of what the game is though.

Sure man, send away.
 
Here's another one, this one a little more about the quote than the picture. Took me about 26 minutes, at least that's what my timer says. Font for everything '33' related so far is Viner Hand ITC, By the way. Didn't come out how I wanted for the face, but otherwise, pretty good in my honest opinion.

33 looks pretty ugly when he gets surprised, but I'm happy with it. This one took 2 hours, give or take. I'm starting to like Powerpoint as a way of drawing concept art/posters.

Thoughts/Suggestions?

If his eyebrows could be a bit more visible it'd help with his facial expressions more, since I didn't notice them at first it made him seem more crazy than surprised. The removal of the line "Wait..." I think would help the dialog flow better in that picture. Other than that, I think it looks great.

Gotcha, see what you're saying there. I'll try a redo on his surprised face later, thorughly pleased with how the Shadow of 33 turned out, at least.
 
Lately I've been trying to make these either smooth (My Avatar), or in my Geometric style I've been doing(Earlier Pictures), and tried crossing the two here:

Eventually, I'll get the hang of this. Incidentally, my ability to draw a realistic perspective is slightly improving.

Does he look a lot younger here to anyone else?

Thoughts are welcome, as well as suggestions.

He does look younger, yes. The only real issues I see here are just the hands, but hands are admittedly a pain in the ass for a lot of artists. Looks nice other than that.

Yeah, might try and give him clawlike hands rather than the blocky ones he has, since I'm better with those.
