Nice! Don't color w/ markers though :D

Suggestions:

1) add some depthy... the torso position has a li'l', but the face is quite flat (the mouth has no right half basically, the teeth on that side wouldn't perfectly match up with the left half)
2) Define the form of the collar-ish thing a bit more. As it is, I'm not sure if it is a collar type metal thing or if it's part of that brown section on the front of the torso... Right now because the top section of it, the lighter gray section, doesn't continue there, it looks like it melds into the body.
3) Is the brown area part of the body, or a garment of some sort? Right now it appears to be part of the body, but (2) make it look like it melds into the collar. If it is supposed to be a garment, add a little bit of detailing, maybe just a line of stitching down the side. (Pretty sure it's not supposed to be that though :))
4) Shading. Not necessarily an actual necessity, depending on what you're going for. That's why cartooning is great :D.

Things I like:

1) The eye is tight, especially the squinting effect implied by the stress under it, and around the upper lip.
2) The anatomy is decent, yet cartoony.
3) it actually looks like it's snarling.

Anyways, because it's colored in marker there's not much re-doing you can do, but I look forward to more drawings in the future! You better post some.

I have some more, but with my favorite one -- I have to figure out how to make it fit in the scanner.. :P

Heres the picture, keep in mind, the piece of paper it's on is much larger (The wraith is holding a large axe), and is sufficient to maybe fit another creature on it, as well as the fact that this is a WIP, and needs a background.

You have problems drawing shoulders.

And in the first pic, the guy has massive arms, yet no chest. ....

I didn't care much 'bout the first character, but the second two look much better.

Wow, that was inappropriate. I'm not an artist, I can't tell you what to do. Look it up.

Well, you don't HAVE to post if you don't have anything to say... use common sense.

That was actually constructive. Unconstructive would be "that drawing sucks. You are bad at drawing."

See? Anyway, he's right. Not bad though.
2005-03-03, 8:21 PM #14
That's not much different than "You have problems drawing shoulders"
Mmmmmkay...?
2005-03-03, 8:26 PM #15
how about "you need to practice drawing shoulders"

Does that work?

Yeah.

How about "Learn to take criticism if you're going to post you're work".

That works, yeah.

And whether you believe it or not, you're being very petty about a bit of CONSTRUCTIVE criticism.

Your wrists and chests lack definition, or are fairly distorted. You have muscles bulging in places that they really shouldn't be (your abs on the centaur, your arms, most notably).

Overall, it needs work.

Meh, his abs are ripped. He did alot of sit ups.. or something.
Yeah...

Well, it is very interesting. I just don't know what words to use to describe it though.
I was just petting the bunny, and it went into the soup can, and part of my hand went with it. - Red vs Blue

But they're not drawn correctly. All angles, jutting out in places they shouldn't be.

Like I said, needs work.
