I kinda wish Wash's face had a little more detail... but, you already did a super fantastic one of our pilot, so it's all great! :D

Oh, wow :) Another wonderful Mal! Thank you so much for drawing these.....you portray him to perfection. You've completely captured Mal's expression of unwavering determination.

Sorry M, Wash looks like Odo here.

You've done way better. Speakin of better, btw - have you considered my multiple Slayer request? Just wondering, because I think it would be a fabulous piece, and a great challenge.

What say you, o great artiste? (said with nary a trace of sarcasm. Do indeed love your works.)

very nice Mal. I'm kinda with the others wishing Wash was a bit more Washy.

I think Wash was intended to be out of focus :)

I agree that, Wash is blurred, I also think that this was intentional. The scene in question did focus on Mal and though Wash was there, I definately recollect him being out of focus. In my, never to be, humble opinion M has done yet another fabulous job.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks, guys...Wash is supposed to be out of focus..Mal's look of determination being the main point of this piece...

Really great sharp profile there, drew my eye straight away. I love his determined hard-as-nails Captainy face.

I get that Wash is supposed to be out of focus, and you're so good at doing that. A lot of non-artists don't realize that if you do ALL the detail, it's too much for the eye to handle and it just looks flat.

I love your work. You have a wonderful talent.

I have to ask, maybe you have already done it before, but I would love to see your interpretation on the scene in out of gas, the one where Mal has settled into the pilot's chair with a blanket, essentially settling in to go down with the ship.

Maybe you have done it and I missed it, but I know you could do that scene beautifully!

Lovely, MP. You'll have to show me how to do that sometime. ;)

Ooooo, I love the intensity all over his face. That is exactly what he looked like!
