Good point AKATT well trully i thought it might ruin it if i put the shadow in and it is supposed to be haunted armour... like Bishamon from Darkstalkers..(need to play that game again!)

Well i guess to make an excuse maybe its like a vampire's reflection... the armour is still solid but doesnt cast a shadow. Like a vampire is solid but has no reflection... anyway just excuses really!

Thanx for all the feed back folks ppreciate it!!

Oh my god, need to critic, have to find errors, cant stand besides while talented artist gets airheaded...

Uhm well lets see uh that... no it is perfect.
Maybe this... na 100% right.... Aah got one I think the sword is a bit too curved to make a good weapon .

serious great drawing from what I can see (FunkyC is right it is pretty small :glare .

And I'm sure it could go away for some nice money (not my money tho, need to upgrade my PC ).

*clones the boxes*

You mean these? I found them on some random Japanese site (they always have cool stuff) Although this was a while ago, so I cant remember, sorry.

Ummm I mean...steering back on topic, are you really selling that drawing on Ebay? if so, I hope its more than a dollar.

Yeah I am seriously contemplating it... I need some extra cash. If I thought i could get a good price for it i just might. Definately I want more than just a dollar thats just a running gag from Robocop.

Although it is my baby and I'm gonna miss it allot if i do sell it! !sniff!
Oh yeah thanx for the boxes those things are hillarious!

I'd buy that for a dollar! Gotta love that movie

Firstly, it's an excellent pic- totally got the Bishamon thing going on with it and from what I can see you did a fantastic job with it- nice details and angle.
To add, Yes, lets see a bigger version so we can check it out properly! Only thing I can really see is the floor looks too steep if the lines on the floor were running more horizontal, it might not look this way. Hey, it might just be me - its better than I could do

I reckon it might only go for between 10-30 bucks on eBay tho - everyone on there is such a cheapskate! I've sold work on there before. I'd usually get about $10 for a typical simple inked work. Coloured works go for a lot more, female characters (preferable naked or in erotic positions) also bump up the cost a lot. I know one guy who can make $100-400 for his pencil renderings tho. Can't remember his name, but is does a lot of sexy babes in a Tony Daniel ("the Tenth" comic) style and they go down really well!
I'd try selling it privately to one of your fans - they might pay a good $50-200 at least for this one!

its so difficult watching our little pieces of artwork go.
raised them from a blank piece of paper and watching them grow up into big kick ass artwork and then ask
"did i do a good job raising my little angel?"
*sniff* ima need a hug

OK with that out of the way.

A suggestion how about making highquality prints from your work.
This way you dont have to give the original away.

Other good points about it.

You allready know the minimum prize (the cost for the Printservice).

You could make bigger reproductions(posters anyone)

Dont think much people really cares if the work is the original (atleast not enough to pay more for it).
