[catch that tiger!]

really nice use of battle puns for the ''panzer'' tank destruction guide, and really nice anatomy of the trap-girl...(not a girl, right? oh my)

still, would you consider making a female version as well?
i like how you drew the butt/hair/overall pose in this one.

good work, and clever humour.

[Don't do drugs, kids.]

lolz! excellent joke about hank's mental/physical condition...
he certainly isnt looking well...

good work, and a funny use of the traditional madness drawings of hank.
keep up the good work.

Thanks mate

[A Lone Billiard Ball]

hey! im not that lonely! >: (

lol

great 3-D design of BB10, done with great details, great shining/lighting/shading effects, with a nice, realistic pool-table designed in the background, a nice 3-D (old-school) clockface, and a very good work on the BB10's surface/texture/shine....
i mean, its not only realistic in its design, it also has a nice shine that reflects the enviroment around it, just like a real spherical object would do in real life...

GREAT 3-D design of BB10, i've seen it earlier before(in cc), but im very proud to find it in here as well...

thank you, i feel honoured.

keep up the great work!
you make awesome 3-D renders!

[I am the Night]

absolutely magnificent!

i love the contrast between the ''normal'', realistically drawn batman, (nicely coloured too!), with his suit and with the determined look on his face, and the ''darker'' batman, the one who hides in the shadows, the symbol of the city, the protector of gotham, and the criminal's worst nightmare....

its a very, VERY good drawing, showing to us, the two sides of batman: the man behind the symbol, and the symbol of gotham itself...

really nice drawing sir, keep it up!

[Kirintor Boys]

wow, they are too beautiful/too feminine to be boys, but indeed, they are male! (woa!)
interesting alternate design of xanavi... in human form.
what are those runes on his forehead?
and whats the backstory of the human xanavi?

either way, its a beautiful drawing of the three guys, and i really like how you drew their faces, their (detailed) eyes, and their (also detailed) outfits...
especially xanavi's suit is VERY nice and with an intricate pattern on it... its very elegant! :)

great drawing as always, keep up the great work!

[I am Merida, Queen of Clan Dunbroch!]

beautiful drawing of merinda the brave... (see what i did there?!)
i like how you drew her fluffy, wild hair, i like how you drew her piercing blue eyes, her beautiful face, the nicely drawn mouth, and i also like the details on her clothing,with the many patterns in the fabric, the necklace, the corset and the belt, while i also like her elegant pose, and i also like the pose of her hand that is holding the arrow, showing one of merinda's greatest skills; archery.

truly a beautiful and nicely drawn merinda, shown as a beautiful young woman.
great work sir, keep it up!

[saturno]

nice, dark drawing, with good drawings of saturn's (cronos) face, of his stature, with a good pose, and a nicely drawn body, in terms of anatomy. (a bit grotesque in the abdomen, but still awesome)

his face/his eyes look extra wicked, as he performs his unholy task...
the child's face looks strange+distorted from pain, i also like the cloudy, dark sky in the background (detailed clouds!), and i also like the staff that cronos is holding.
the only thing that strikes me as strange, is the toilet where cronos is sitting.
why adding a toilet in the pic?

all in all, this is a very good drawing, with nice poses, good linework, and a very nice tribute to the classic drawing of goya, where (according to the greek mythology) saturn/cronos ate his children, so that noone could suprass him in power/so that noone would overthrow him.
(because he heard of a prophecy that one of his sons would be alot more powerful than him, and that he would soon overthrow him.
that child was zeus, king of the gods...
zeus escaped with the help of his mother, rhea and he later teamed up with his brothers, neptune(poseidon), and hades in order to stop cronos and to overthrow the titans.)

good drawing sir, i like it alot!
keep up the good work!

[Nature vs Nurture]

absolutely stunning drawing!

the details, such as the human bodies/the anatomy/their poses/their faces+their skin texture, are amazing.
everything in this drawing is so realistic, that you could say that this is a recoloured photo, with new, more cheerful/lively colours drawn on top of it.
its that good!

i like how the young man ''nurture''(?), hugs the seemingly distant lady, which is ''ms nature''.
(i assume that the man is nurture, due to the family taking care of the child, shown in his crown, on the top of his head, while the woman has roses, and a pair of DNA double helix elements on top of her head, thus, making her ''the power of nature'', in this analogy.

their pose, and their embrace looks beautiful, and VERY natural/realistic, thus making this a beautiful picture, with a very strong message inside.

i guess, when it comes to the human nature (on our personality), its mostly nature+a (smaller) part of nurture that does the work.
i guess we have alot of things to learn, but still: people are a mystery, and they always are worth exploring.

overall, this is a GREAT, realistic+beautiful painting, and i would love to see more pics like this from you in the future... you are a very good artist, so keep up the good work!

PS: last but not least, i have to say it: the young couple's faces, vaguely remind me of ''king tommen'' and of ''queen daenerys'', from G.O.T. (a popular TV fantasy series).
its a beautiful (even if slight) resemblance, and i like it alot!

zephyo responds:

Thank you for the great message! Your assumptions on their identity are correct :)

[dark souls 3 dragon form]

i wont lie to you; you draw impressive/fearsome/charming dragons.

ofcourse, this dragon is torched/damaged/malnourished, and it's meant to represent the general decay that reigns in the D.S universe....
but still, i would love to see a ''strong'', well-formed, solid dragon drawn by you.(or even a dragoness)
it would be awesome!

(also, would you consider drawing a DS1 dragon? it would be great as well!)

now, once again, this is a great drawing, and i like the dragon's glowing eyes, its muscular/famished anatomy+its interesting pose, its glowing/flamy hands+body, and the excellent shading/lighting effects, along with the realistic texture and the vivid colours.

its truly an awesome drawing!

you are very good, keep up the good work!!!

Thanks mate! I do in fact probably have what you are looking for in my deviantart gallery:
http://themefinland.deviantart.com/gallery/
I haven't uploaded everything here on newgrounds so you may find some new things there! You know, now that you mention it, I think I may just draw the dark souls 1 dragon form once again sometime soon!
