Just thought I'd post some of my stuff and see what people thought. I've only really been attempting comic art for the last year or so. Before that most of what I did was wildlife drawings.

Just a guy, I've since realized that you can go overboard with muscle groups.

Feedback
You have some fantastic detail with your work.
The propotions seems to be a little off though.
Do you go straight to detailed pencils?
I would recommend working on sketches first.
(01) Establish the pose.
Photo-referencing or live models help heaps!
(02) Does it look like everything is the right size? Right angle?
(03) Once you get that down . . you can work put in the details.
Keep it at!!
Hope to see more of your work.
I've included a couple of links which shows breakdowns to final works.
Hope they help!

Thanks, for some reason I've never been able to get a sketch to look the way I want it to. Probably something I should make myself practice.

Try convincing your friends to strike a pose. Make the pose as "crazy" as possible. Then try sketching the basic pose (don't worry about the details yet)!
It'll take a while but once you've got a couple of poses in your head, you can start experimenting with different angles and perspectives. Keep at it! :)

One exercise I did ages back was drawing someone lying down.
http://sigmatestudio.com/2008/10/drawing-course-week-2/
Your field of view was the the top of his head (Exercise 1) or from his feet (Exercise 2). It's a lot more difficult to get the proportion that it seems! It took a while to get it right (and even then I still think my sketches weren't correct)

Ultimate Avengers Work in Progress
Just thought it would fun to give these guys a try. Sorry the quality is so poor. My paper is too big for my scanner so I took a picture of it with a webcam.

This is what I'm best at. It's hard for me to transition to comic art because I always want my drawings to be as close to a photograph as possible. That's one of the reasons I love stippling. It's as close to photographic as I can get.
