Yay! I am the first one to reply!
That's good! I think it's hard to draw those new critters...

It looks... "Magnifico!" I love it so... though it looks better on paper. I give it a 4 out of 5

Thanks guys! It was only a quick sketch, and for some reason it's getting on my nerves now. Anyway, I'm going to try my hand at a more detailed drawing. Will post later.

I was sure I replied to this thread yesterday...

But, anyway. It does look good, really good, oddguy. If you're thinking of ever adding colour, don't, as plain black and white is priceless

Hey, if you take away the antennae and the fat-head, the Scuba-Toads face looks just like a Mystic from the movie "The Dark Crystal".

EDIT: I can't believe how convenient this is! There's a pic of one in the misc. avatar section..
Here it is...

The coloring is similiar, although it's a far stretch to compare the two.

Ummm, all you have to do is pull out the nose, squish the head in, get rid of the antennae, make him look sad and take out the greenish color and they look just like Mystics! Wow!

See what I mean?

Awesome! I really like how you did his eyes and the reflection on his shades. If the real Shades were here right now you could sell it to him as a portrait.

I'm glad you guys like it! I haven't drawn in a while...mainly becasue I was trying to draw something a while back and it sucked, so I got discouraged and took a break from art to clear my head. After all these cool Stranger pics came out, I knew it was time to get back into art. I'm slowly easing back into it. You can tell...Shades looks a lot better than Mr. Toad.

I like 'em both! The Shades Pic looks great, and so does Toad Man... I like them so much, I could kiss them!

Personally I think they're great!

What is the medium btw?
Pencil or charcoal?
Have you used a range of lead grades (H and B) or is it pure shading that has given the depth?

Keep it up Oddguy you have real talent! I'm impressed with the standard of your work and with the fact you have confidence enough to show your work in public... but your confidence isn't out of place!

I would just ignore some people's comments!
