characters have problems with anatomy, and I would very much like to see a background of some kind.

Good enough, but there are some problems with proportions, and you used too neutral a gray on the metal which doesn't look that good.

Chevere loco!! (That`s cool man!)
But agree with the anatomy observations, mainly on the shoulders of the figure in blue and grey. The body of the dragon could use some more volume too. But I like your chice of colors on this one - `cept for the neutral gray thing

Thanks for your comments. About the proportions and the metal I'm agree. I use to draw my characters with other kind of proportion (more muscle for better shape) but I was trying to respect the original design of Matt Brown. I'll put more contrast and lighting in metal stuff the next time. THANKS!

JGDesigner, thanks again for your work on this piece. It came out great and I used it for our game trailer. Right now, we are working on our public website to showcase our game and the trailer will be available there. We are considering switching from GBA to PSP platform, but the decision won't be made for another week or so. I will let you all know the URL for the game once the website is ready.

Hi!
I like the characters in general. They have personality. Though the girl... she seems like she just picked up the sword and doesn't know what to do with it. That would be fun if it was intentional -like if she was thinking: oh oh I'm wielding a sword and now what?!- But it is not the case and to me the girl's lack of expression is a shame.
I understand when you say you wanted to keep the design, as close as possible, to the original concept by Matt Brown. But I think you still should correct the problem with proportions, as Crow, Arenhaus and Augusto pointed out.
Colours and textures are very nice. But I agree the neutral grey was not the best choice, and the metal could reflect some other colours. Have you tried to put shadows to the characters? Anyway, overall it's a good work mate!
