And the Patrick one looks MUCH better now. The first version felt like something was missing (although it was already excellent), but now it's perfect!
@bisonhero: The drawings aren't meant to be the bombcrew as existing MGS characters, but bizarro-versions of themselves that could exist in that crazy universe and perhaps fit in similar roles as the characters whose names I've played on. Although honestly, when I make these my primary thought is "how can I draw this person in an interesting way". I wouldn't read too much into the names, they mostly serve as a fun way of relating the drawings back to MGS.
Regarding the hoodie, I tried to evoke a little 'Spookin with Scoops'. You know that thing people do when they're telling a scary story at night with a flashlight and a blanket over their head. That was kinda in my mind, as well as some other things which don't necessarily make sense.

Ah, gotcha, the spookiness angle. I think you chose a good pose for that as well, with head angled back and to the side, like he's Paul Bearer or something.
@sanj: Hey dude your pictures are so good, there are others featured on the Giant Bomb front page, which are good, but just seeing them made me want to find yours again and seeing yours again made me need to tell you how good they are again!
