Again, an amazing elemental! I love the feeling your elementals have, something very basic to the earth. It's very, very cool!

:-) Christopher A Malidore replies: "I fear that many people try too hard on these things. Sometimes going back to the basics of not only art, but of conceptualization is the way to go. As long as you can put a good spin on the picture, it's worth trying."

Oow... Very creative. He looks evil though. But... something that can shake houses into dust and swallow us whole are probably not very cuddily. ..."Cuddily"? ...A very nice drawing - I really like the sky. I'm in love with skies and anyone who can put them on paper and do them some kind of justice are one I admire. *First comment scream-of-joy-throw into the skies*

:-) Christopher A Malidore replies: "The sky gave me some real difficulty I'm afraid, I liked the tones before I bumped them to compliment the elemental more. Sadly they wouldn't have worked as well though had I left them. One of those curses of the job I guess 2"

what r the little glowing lights in his *holds up hands and looks for orientation* ah, right arm? 1

:-) Christopher A Malidore replies: "Well I felt that perhaps he'd need some energy source and the magma feel of the earth always has connotations of great power - so I felt I'd put some of that in the guy 2"

he, I like how he's moving, but at the same time his foot and hand just blend into the rock and make him look like he is stuck. mwahahahahaha

:-) Christopher A Malidore replies: "What I really wanted was that lumbering forward feel, not entirely fast, but powerful 2"

love the movement in this. I almost feel the earth shake because of his heavy steps. reminds me a bit of a Transformer-Autobot, I’ll watch Transformers, Revenge of the Fallen today...
really great work!
