Description Drawn a while back kinda to see if I could "pull this off". My whole purpose was to play with the contrast, make a soccer top conmemorate my favorite sport and give a sense of magnitude to the stadium, to make every person in the audience tell a story. It's up to you wether I succeed or not though.

Dude how did you do this? Is it all pencil or pencil and photoshop layers? I cannot tell because you never let up on your detail man!

Wow, they really do tell a story, a story of endlesshours of drawing. It's very impressive, not to mention the quality of the foreground drawing. Great Work!

Oh man. This shot is excellent. You caught the hype of the game all in this drawing.

I'm the captain of my school's girl's soccer team so I know a thing or two about the game.

It's very well done. I love looking at the people in the background. It's so detailed! This is an amazing piece. Totally part of my favs!!

Countless detail and effort is etched into this Deviation. Words can't describe it man, I only have time to sum it up in small. Great moment capture with buckets of personality and a taste for action! Well done.

Excellent work overall. Some comments....

The proportion on the center guy's legs is way off. He looks like his left leg just kind of withers... While I know the guy behind him is a guy, it's kind of hard to tell by the face, he looks very effeminite, but then that's soccer players - I've seen them that way too.

The background, in theory - is fantastic! I want to see it way way enlarged so I can get all those people. In practice though, if this piece were to be in color for an ad or book, the entire background would probably be forced down to a monochrome to be less distracting to the viewer. Is the focus of the piece the 3 players? Or the action - which involves ALL that we see? Or the emotions of the crowd which may be muddled since we can't see them quite as well as if we were among them?

But other things: the audience's eyes are all focused right on that ball - great job. (Well, all but some of them focused on other more 'important' things lol!)
I'd like the inking on the players to be a bit thicker or consistant - the fine lines of the background are wonderful, but the washiness of the players kind of distracts from the 'perfection' angle. If that's what you did on purpose, it works well. It does give the piece a bit of a 'fabric' matte.

Super work, though. I do want to see close-ups of the crowd.
