Thank you 
My critique is going to be based on the whole thing. Cos let me just say to anyone who is reading this critique, this image is not the whole thing... there is a beautifully written and comical short story introducing you to this motley crew!
I certainly takes a fair degree of skill to be able to create graphically representations of your friends and their other halves and to have them happy with the results.
Let me go into the character design... first of all, they all accurately represent the personalities of the people involved... Lars being in a stern pose, Line being in a relaxed and confident pose, Anne being some what reserved with her hand near her face, showing a little under confidence and shyness, which is very true to the personality of Anne. Nas in a bit of a confidence and wacky pose... Shar (myself!) being in a sarcastic/don't give a fuck pose and Paul being in a shy pose also, turning his back away from people.
Not just the rendering of the characters, but also the insane detailing on the weapons. A lot of thought has gone into the tools each of the personalities use as major elements in their work. For instance Anne being into typography vector styles has a weapon based on the type tool. My tool is based on using the paintbrush tool.
Then on top of that, the fantastic clothing! Simplely amazing. One little detail I appreciate is our body shapes... I'm not exactly a slender woman and rocking a size 22. This has been implimented in my body shape and clothing to appear as flattering as possible. Wonderful!
The story accompanying this piece is funny as anything. I was almost in tears with it, although it might be seen as a very personal, inside joke piece... I believe other vector artists would sympathise with the constant battle against the raster!
Bravo Nas, I can't wait to see more!
