| 29 Feb 2000 | Amanda Weiss | Your art is da bomb. I like the way you put such intense emotions into fairly simple drawings. | |
| 29 Feb 2000 | Nick Thornborrow | Great stuff. Love the comic book style. | |
| 2 Mar 2000 | The artist | Yes Randall, you're right. Foreshortening is extremely difficult to get right without a reference. I can copy a photograph exactly no matter what it is but for example, the right leg on "Tree Hugger" just isn't right. I couldn't find a photo reference for that exact pose so I made it up--you can probably tell; in the thigh area especially. | |
| 6 Mar 2000 | Cara Russell | Hey! Thanks for stopping by my page, but you shouldn't totally rely on pictures for poses, though you do good with it. Try using an artist't wooden model doll, or even a Barbie doll if you have to stoop as low as me. It makes your mind work a little harder, but if you do it enough, you won't need a crutch at all. I'd like to see the stories behind some of your characters too, they're really interesting. | |
| 7 Mar 2000 | Christopher 'Topher' Allen Shepard | Great gallery mike! Can't wait till you add more. Like maybe that old self portrait, or that cool fantasy world map you did! A lot of your artwork has an emotionally intense, classic feeling to it, and I agree that you could definitely publish your own comic! F.Y.I., I and Mike are next door neighbors, and we've been friends since 10th grade in high school! Mike is a great artist and great guy. | |
