There's a lot to like there, some new and interestink ways of showing the deadly dudes as well.  They look like they could be part of a more kid friendly animated show, like the DC ones (and I'm saying this as a good thing).  

Fire especially looks very good.  I also like Mortis, but would probably complain if he looked so happy in the comic.  Fear is quite dramatic, Death looks okay, but neither have the personality of Fire and Mortis in the pic.  i.e. you've done something quite new with fire and mortis, and I'd like to see your Death and Fire in the same style.  

You've made them look alive (or maybe animated would be a better word)  instead of them having their characteristic 'dead' or personality free look.  Though I like the Fear, maybe it's just because I can't see his body.  Possibly the same with Death.  I appreciate that would wreck the dramatic poses.

Any constructive/petty criticism?  Well, it's the potato-faced Dredd look which I'm not keen on.  Lots of artists do somthing like it, but it's not a look I like.  I'd rather see a mean looking human being than the 'living chin' mutation artists like to do.  Some of the blue colouring on the helmet and uniform doesn't look quite right, though the rest is marvellous.  Are those visor angles right?  They look a bit funny.  Not sure about the helmet shape.  You do the hands and the gun very well.

Overall that really is good stuff.  Keep it up!  I'm sure someone could point you in the direction of the trial scripts for Dredd.  You have to have a go!

Cheers

p.s. yup, Fire is the dude!

p.p.s. Yes, I'm known for petty comments about chins, and Judge's helmets, so don't take it too hard, I think too much about this stuff.

Paul,
thanks for the input! I wanted to take Dredd in a different direction, because I have never seen it done in this style before, & my artowrk is evolving into something..... else. I don't know if you caught my other Dredd work but here's a link, you can see that style that you refered on Death in this page...
