What's the consensus on this one?
I will be doing a full version of bothe Captains, Britain and America.
Not for a bit as I have a collaborative piece coming up which may take some time. Still though, I have submitted a few new ones to be seen over the next few weeks.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks for watching.

Why not, I'm in a UIRing sort of mood. And Marcus, I promise I'll try to UIR your stuff from now on, when I have time. ;)

I like it. I generally like all your work, really. (And the stuff you have coming up looks very nice too.)

Mar-Vell is the best thing here, I can understand why you submitted him individually. I love the lighting on that pic. It's powerful, and combined with the slight blurriness/mistiness it makes the overall image feel sort of... ethereal, alien? Dunno what the word is exactly, but it's definitely cool.

Captain Britain / Lionheart is also cool. I like the echo of her in the background, it looks nice. Her back foot looks sort of weird and bendy, though, and, er... it'd be nice if her breasts were bigger. Not simply cause I like big breasts, but because it's a bit difficult to tell she's a she! But still, it is a cool pic.

Captain America, I'm afraid, lets the side down a bit. He's really flat, particularly in comparison to the better work on the other two characters. The blue of his uniform could really use some scalemail texture. I dunno how much work that'd take (I'm no expert on 3D images), but it'd definitely look a lot better. The lack of texture and the somewhat undifferentiated lighting really flatten that part of the pic out. His shield is also kinda flat, and would IMO look better if it had more of an obvious curve to it. It is, after all, the focal point of that part of the image. I have to say though, the camera angle you've chosen for Cap is very nice.

Too true on the other two Caps.
One thing though, albeit he is slimmer than I should have made him, this is still Brian Braddock. So no breasts Big Chap.
TRUE, Cap IS flat but he was one of the quickest heroes I have ever done.
I was just being a bit lazy with this one.
I still like the idea of Captains together.
I will do a detailed version of him and bring out more of the chainmail and give him a curved shield. Just haven't figured out the best way to make it yet.
Britain will be updated as per your suggestion. Still no breasts though.
I enjoy the opinions as they influence future work.
Keep it up.
Thanks.
Marcus.

Oh, okay, sorry. With the hair and the costume I thought that was the new, female Captain Britain. My bad. :lol: If that's Brian, he really should be more muscular, he's usually depicted as a big guy.
