Nyaaargh, this is why I don't like doing backgrounds.
Perfectly good drawing + shitty background = second rate picture.
Ok, I'm dramatising a bit. I don't think it's that bad.
This was a bit of an experiment to see how fast I could "Draw something cool" one fine bio period of otherwise doing nothing. I didn't time it very accurately but the shaded picture, minus the background was done in roughly an hour I think.
I tried to keep it all to my original, super high contrast shading style that I first learned from ~jezcardia when I'd only just started drawing humanoids. Unfortunately I couldn't really get it to work that well on the background without adding any more texture to it.
I might move this to scraps eventually, I just wanted to submit it partly to show how I learned to shade. Once I could do this sorta thing, the rest of my shading technique sorta fell in line.
Anyway, Liquidator sniper surveying the savanna from the cover of a large broken down signpost near some African shantytown.
I'd put advance critique on this but I think I more or less know what I've done wrong on this, but if anyone has any tips, I'd still like to hear them.

The BG does'nt look to bad. Myabe just a teeeeny little out of place, but I dont think it kills the picture, just add's alittle more depth, even if he does seem a tad out of place. But other then that, love the details here, awsome awsome work.
