Why care about people if they're not bloody and on your carpet right now?

Although I must admit that the drawing is good, I don't like Scorpion's look very much.

Jax007, this is truely some nice artwork that you keep presenting to us. The picture is really good. I love the way you drew sub-zero. The detail is very nicely done. The pic is clean as hell as with all of ur other pics. I also must say that I like that stance that subby's in, very cool in deed. The only thing I see wrong with it IMO is his leg looks too thick. I think this could be because of his pants, but a little thinner could have look better IMO. As for scoripin I love everybit of it. The stance is just perfect. I love how you made him look like something other than a ninja, but still kept the ninja essence. The flaming skull is a very nice addition(man u gotta teach me how to draw flames like that). The sword on his back is like the cherry on top of the entire pic. Very nice job as usual...5/5 dragons.
EDIT: I just looked it somemore and the leg isn't too thick, I only seen it that way because the cloth gave it that appearance. So, yeah, good pic again keep up the good work. I do have a request though, I would love to see you do a pic of Shao Kahn.

Well the drawing is great. Scorpion looks too much like a Marvel superhero type character. It's probably the brand and the bare chest more than anything. I do like that he is still partially ninja. Looks like he's changing his style but not totally.

Great job as usual Jax007. I like both the looks you gave them. Sub-Zero definately looks more like a ninja. I like the pose you gave him. Scorpion looks really good. I like the fact that you gave him his skull head instead of his regular one. I also like the symbol that you put on his chest that means Scorpion. 5/5 from me.

Okay, you should really think about sending your stuff to Capcom or Midway cause your stuff is that good. It's a clean clean and sure style that I'm sure people would pay good money for you to work for them.

On with the critique...

You never disappoint woth your submissions. I like How you changed Scorpions look from a ninja. It's a stong canidate for an alternate costume along the lines of Rayden's alt costume in MKDA.

Subb's is so badass I'm friggin giddy! grin I like the pose you gave him as well.

Some side or 3/4 head treatments would have been the extra layer of icing on the cake, but I guess it would have been to much to thorw in one piece.

As always... great job!

Rating 5/5

WOW!! These look awesome! I love what you’ve done with Scorpion and Subzero looks mad as well. My only complaint would be that Subzeros stance looks a little cramped which could possibly be because Scorpion is taking up the lions share of the page, but he looks freaking sweet so I can excuse that.

5/5

PS: I hope you don’t mind if I take a shot at coloring it.

Thanks peoples.

Sub-Zero has his Dragon stance and Scorpion his Hapkido one but the stances aren't 100% accurately drawn like in the game though.

Also, I think this look for Scorpion would fit better as an Alt, like someone mentioned.
Man, that's pretty cool. I like it except for Sub Zero's mask, is too simple but everything else is just perfect.
I agree that Scorpion's look could be better as an alternate costume.
5/5 Dragon Points.

Damn, that's awesome, as usual! Very clean, excellent technique, and both costumes (especially Scorpion's) are just awesome. Just a couple problems I see with it. For one, I don't like how the external outline looks darker than the outline of the details within the bodies; it just looks awkward to me. Also, as izz_daman said, Sub's left leg does look a little too thick; even if it technnically isn't, the outline of the cloth makes it look like it. Scorpion's left leg also looks a little off to me.

By the way, am I the only one who doesn't like Sub's stance? I think the right hand is up too far; it looks to me like he's having a heart attack, and clutching his chest. But, maybe that's just me...

Excellent job, overall. 5/5.

This is excellent. I like it very much. All your work is very great. I really like sub-zeros look, you made it look really good the way you used so much detail. Scorpion is pretty cool too. I love his outfit itself. And the sign on his chest. The only thing i dont like is his skull head. The skull you drew is awesome and all but i never liked him revealing his head. 5/5

This is a cool picture. Sub-Zero looks really good. Scorpion's design is cool too. I don't like the potition of either of their hands. I also would love to see a cool background with this drawing.
I think it is very cool spelling Scorpion's name on his chest.
The fonts (you know what I mean) you wrote in are really cool.
Overall I like it, but it would be 100x's better with a cool background!

I gotta ask, Jax, having observed your work for quite some time - how do you het it to look so clean? Do you retouch in Photoshop, or do you start in digital?

No, I don't retouch them.

What I do, is that I start drawing the skech with a very pale pencil and then retrace the good lines with a darker pencil.

Amazing. This is probably my favourite piece from you. I'm not sure if the designs are the best you've come up with, but I can't find anything at all to complain about in the actual drawing.
4.5/5

And just as a formality - you wouldn't mind me submitting a coloured version of this, would you? smile
This is such great stuff, I jumped at the opportunity to colour it.
