Mike Ross: My heart was pounding. It was the most erotic moment of my life.

That painting is OP. Especially love the hand on Honda's face lol.

Fanatiq has a genuine understanding of how businesses and sponsorships works. It's sad the majority of the people in the FGC doesn't.

Fanatiq all about that money. I can respect that, because at least we know where he stands.

THAT PAINTING OH GOOOOOOOOD THAT PAINTING! It captures the essence of Mike Ross so well!

the LHM vid was awesome, I hope Mike sticks with Honda at least part-time. even though his Blanka is sick too.

The LHM painting was pretty nice. I like the idea of portraying a player with (one of) his character(s). Good work.

The portrait is so gay! No offence, cause that's the funny part about it!

Some constructive criticism: Some details in your paintings are always a bit off. Mike's right arm has an awkward angle and comes out of nowhere. His left hand looks also strange and the proportions in itself aren't right. The perspective and size of the face doesn't fit with the perspective of the head. I like your textures and shadings tho.

@10 Don't think I am trolling or trying to be an ass, but can you do one for us? You seem to know what you are talking about.

Yeah, the proportions are a bit whack. Massive facial features + tiny hand etc. Could also go into a lot more depth with your colour range.. too much pure black and white isn't a good thing. It's just too cartoony for me, but that aside, the commentary is very good and entertaining. Keep enjoying what you do, if people enjoy your art then kudos.
