Your art shows a lot of promise here Michael- I envy your command of figure. My one complaint is that it's sometimes hard to see your work clearly- perhaps finer lines? Anyway, great work! Kudos! 27 Oct 2001 Loading... Goodness, your work is very good 7 Apr 2002 Chris harding Loading... i like you drawings they are really cool,I also draw, i draw japanimation style and regularly do comics ect. my favourite of your drawings are...ALL OF THEM, because i am into the fantasy scene i.e elves, orcs and mages ect. 10 May 2003 Alyssa Renae White Loading... Roleplay? You mean there are more than like 5 in the world! **^*dies from to much joy*^* I really like your art I think you have a great style. Your art is so story telling. And the fact that you are a role player makes everything even better. Your Colors for your images are very strong and perfic choices. Keep up the good art work!! Alyssa White 26 Aug 2003 Tao tray Loading... I like your work because it's not as cartoonish as most others I have seen. Your work has given a lot of my D&D characters a face if not a body to run with. 16 Sep 2003 Bremen Nightflame Loading... And so I see you took the name of my great half-brother for one of your drawings... hopefully a little inspiration in writing... that would be interesting to see... The third... How many Dralins are there... I know of one... last I heard he was floating in an extra-dimensional time warp, created by his ability to Dimension Door at will. That ability as your remember was so nicely given to him by a group of nasty Meenlocks with bad dispositions. Feel free to respond to me... Mike... 25 Sep 2003 Cally Loading... hey, as long as you have fun drwaing that's what counts right? I am writing my own book, and my dad says that he might publish it for me when i graduate 19 Nov 2003 Vincent N. Darlage Loading... I like your artwork; it is rather inspiring. 5 Dec 2003 Lauren Rankin Loading... Hey! I got here through the link on your website. And BAH! You are too a good artist. *pat* you must have more self-confidence in your works. I like the concepts of them and the original ideas on costume and scenery. Oh yeah, and I found the article on the Druids that you wrote. Very enlightening, and you tell it wonderfully so that it's not all dry reading like last year's cookies. Keep drawing! Page: [1] 2
