Rather accomplished. A little too studied, though. Appears you're trying too hard. Try relaxing while executing. Don't be overly concerned with realism. Think form more than shape. If you aren't already, do this exercise on a regular basis: Draw a pencil or charcoal of a still life without ever looking at the paper. Look only at the still life.

In short, loosen up. You're strangling yourself putting too much thought into execution. As a result, your images lose dynamicism and just lay on the page when they want to soar off it.

FWIW

I'm more of a concept art kinda guy... so... it's not really "art" it's more like "Ideas"

Plus i'm all for the shock factor!

Nothin' I haven't seen before that's for sure.

You asked for comments. I offered some. Take 'em or leave 'em. But, please, don't argue them after having asked for them.

Quite. But I wasn't going to go that far, Fras. Considering his response, though, maybe I should've been less kind.
