As i understand it, you like feedback. Ive gone through most of your work here and on your website. Even tho this is not my usual preference, there are some that wow me. Out of the latest work, to me NR 20 does the trick. Nr 25, i cant decide, but i keep coming back looking at it ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) Out of the older stuff, id like to see more like: Infantry Warcry (Test 1) Corrโฆ Tina (Union Jack) Hot ice
Nice to follow your work ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

thankyou illu2305,
did this one a little different to the others, and I too think it works better. tried to make the strokes much bolder and vibrant. trying very hard to create as much movement and wilder brushstrokes as I can.
Cheers for your post
