Haven't posted any art in a while, and here is why. Finally finished and happy with it.
Big thanks goes out to everyone that joined the livestreams to keep me going, and for providing keen advice.

I think this is pretty cool, bro. :U

I can see what whatsisface means by you only used one brush for the clouds. Now that it's pointed out, it does seem a little weird.

But you know what? You're doing pretty fine everywhere else. If the suits aren't supershiny, they're not going to have cloud reflections. And not every female character has DD breasts that need custom armour to support and show them off. I like what you did with her because a lot of women actually are quite small, and her armour looks like it still has room for normal sizes. Because of her, the other two don't look like generic army men; they could very well be girls also, and I love to see equality in things like this. Or in general.

So keep on trucking! Though the fuzzy digitalness is a little offputting, there is a huge amount of detail here.

Oh, yeah, the movement thing. I don't know why s/he wanted the dude on the right's arms to be flailing. The dude seems to be holding a lot of heavy gear. That does not allow one to move their arms very much.

What do you think?

Awesome suits and nice colours. The Shading of the armors is really nice and the composition is pretty good.

The only negatives are:

- i can see, that you only used one brush for the background and there are missing some more reflections of the bright clouds on the suits

- theres missing some shading in her face and her eyes are a little bit too big

- her suit on their belly is too male looking and her breasts kinda disappear in the mass of armor

- the suited guy on the right side stands like a tree. more motion with his arms would look better.
