Wow Frank!! These are genius! I love the first one! It's great, I wouldn't change anything about it.
The second is really, really good.
I'm not so wild about the third, but it's good. I know the freedom of art is being able to alter something and use your imagination, but I don't like the neck.
I'm a huge fan of black and white drawings-- possibly because I can't color drawings to save my life. I absolutely love the fourth. It's simple and brilliant.
I'm not so sure what the last one is, but I like it. It looks cool... almost evil, but really, really cool.
I rate it all 10/10; keep drawing! I'd love to see more!

Thanks a ton! I really appreciate the compliments.
The picture with the long neck...it's supposed to be referencing that he's "high", thus his head is in the clouds and he's smoking a pipe. Which, of course, is where the title Abandoned Motivation comes from.
And the last one is actually my own interpretation of a "real" deity in Gnostic Christianity, known as the Demiurge. He's supposed to have been the malevolent creator of the physical world, and is usually depicted as very distant and alien. I though it was such interesting twist on the idea of a god that I just had to draw a picture!
Whoa, that is really cool. You did this with pencil? Wow. I like the first one the best. I have a question about the Whipple Van Buren. It seems like one of those pictures where you're seeing one thing but there is also something else. I see a man smoking a cigarette. So is there something else I should be seeing? Or am I being delusional?
Oh wow... wow. I'm very impressed... I love looking at the art/photography section because there's some really amazing stuff in here and this is definitely one of those times.
I guess this isn't a very good review, but I don't have much else to say since I can't draw myself.
I see a man with a cigarette too... am i missing something?
Heh, it's funny, I never even thought of looking at the Whipple Van Buren one as having a double picture. I didn't intend for it, but it's cool that you guys thought of it. Maybe something I can use for the future...
Got another new one here. I drew the face with pencil, and then edited it with Microsoft paint (and a tiny bit of IrfanView).

Thank you sir! That's my personal favorite as well.

1- it takes a while to figure out what it is, but when you do it's like...genius. All of the shapes and the black/white contrast is very nice.
2- Some of the proportions on the guys face and ear are awkward, especially with the piercings. And I think the scan was a little weird, but I can't blame you for that.
3- There's something simple and weird about this and I can't help but love it. It's almost 70's with the shape and sepia glow. And I love the way his hair is almost just like the clouds. Very nice.
4- So simply done and elegant that it adds a unique touch to the whole, "guy with a sword" thing.
5- Well...I'm not sure what this is, or what it's supposed to be... I think you need some focus in this. You seem to be a big fan of the 'off to the side, technique, which is great, but in this case, it takes out a lot of what could clarify this picture.
Good work. :]
But that is not the question. Why we are here, that is the question. And we are blessed in this, that we happen to know the answer. Yes, in this immense confusion one thing alone is clear. We are waiting for Godot to come. -Beckett
