I went out and bought a brush pen. quite hard to get use to. But they do make better smooth and unique lines then the regular stuff.Here's something that I did, a manned turret.

Well done with the Brush Pen, they are a real pain in the Butt to use consistantly... Especially if you have the shakes... No coffee before using it. Well done!!

i have a brush pen too, but it's too thick. i can't use it with my regular ones or the thin lines get overwhelmed -_-
cool shit. i say the gear like shoulder nearest to the camera looks a bit distorted, or at least the gear teeth, but that's all. big gun!

Hum! That almost looks like it came straight out of Masamune Shirow's Ghost in the Shell manga. Even kinda looks like Batou acting as pilot. Awesome.

Yeaaah! This would look great as a Metal Slug boss...
Btw, the other day I bought the Venom/Carnage miniseries, (just got released here) and while the script is pretty forgettable, the art (by Clayton Crain) was amazing. I guess that working for Marvel you'll know his work better than I do, but when I saw the comic I wondered if you shouldn't forget about inking and try to work directly in color to get something along the lines of your Roberto fanart. That would definitely look great for a comic...

It's allways best to build up your arsenal. Don't just rely on digital to fix things up. If Leonardo did it without photoshop, then so can I. I can also do digital, but you really can't give out a digital sketch at a con now can you.
The more you can do the better.

Yeah, yeah, I know, and that's probably the best thing to do, but if you're focused on one goal (let's say, comicing over concept design) maybe you should favor one particular area over the rest...

I stared at this one for a good five minutes before I was able to comment. It's so gorgeous. I'm just loving your style of traditional coloring... i'm a sucker for gray tones. I can't get over the detail in this... especially around the bottom. The peace sign cracked me up. 
The black lines are excellent. I'd love to learn how to use brush pens one day. Baby steps though... 
Again, beautiful work!

I love it when I see someone else discover the joy of the brush pen. The gray tones give it a lot of depth, but now your line work is contributing to that as well. The result? Even as a thumbnail, this thing feels THREE DIMENSIONAL!
I dig!

Interesting! He looks pretty safe in that thing. I like it that its complex and yet very simple over all!

^^ nice job dan! Was this all inked on brush? I though brush was mainly for filling large black areas, hah. I really like the design man, and the perspective is interesting ^o^ my crits would be the gear on the left (looks really weird if you analyze it, ahha) and the character, which looks a bit too big for such a small place to sit, heh. Nice going anyways, keep it up!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ha, I thought he looked to small. :/
I know what you mean about the gear type object on the left, I fudge that up a bit. I wish it was all done with a brush pen, but they are to thick for tiny lines. Just bold strokes are done with the brush pen.

Hey thats extreamly clean! You got alot more guts than me...I piss my pants everytime i use a brush.
I'm hopeing this ain't your first attemped, cause that would make me feel like crap!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
don't feel like crap but this is actually my second time using a brush pen, The first time was at a convention With Mark Brooks where he let me use one, and I was completely off with it. The guy was a pro with it and I was absolutely clueless as to how to handle it.
But now I think if you just try not to think about the wetting your pants things, then you'll get right through it.

awesome work.... unique style of mech too, i'm trying to figure out what to ink with myself.. usually go with a thin Sharpie (because at work there are plenty) but maybe i'll check that one out
awesome stuff

Damn that's awesome.
Brush pens are really cool, though they have one little problem: they make the ink bleed... and that sucks. :[ But I see no problems with your pic, it's actually pretty interesting and manga looking.

Interesting.
brush pen?
The perspective looks...slightly off, in places, but that my be due in good part to the cropping.

i too have recently bought a brushed pen, i love it!
it is hard to use, but it aids in loose stylish lines

The peace sign is the best!
The brush pen really brings a nice contrast to the grey tones of the piece... great job.
