Hey, greatlol!! Just a couple suggestions for your piece:   Placing the buildings to the sides opens up the center and gives some space for the character. Also, adding perspective to the buildings makes them appear a little more dramatic, and would also lead the viewer's eye to the character. Also, you could vary the lighting on the foreground building, making it lighter near the camera & darker/desaturated further out. That would help to make things a little less flat.  ----------------------------------------------------- My skeetches for today.

AK: nice sketches, I like how you shade the armour. I made a couple of doodles today during English and then got bored doing my history coursework so did a quick paint over  mature-ish content |

Hello pillow, good face, im liking your freestyle more and more. That being said i wanna talk about eyes, hair and noses. Eyes convey most of our emotions, that being said you might amp the detail in your faces as far as eyes go. I understand you may have wanted the white-eye look on her, but eyebrows are also very important. You might wanna check out this tut to see what im on about. Hair, your hair is the proper shape and proportions, but its currently an undefined amorphis blob at the moment. Remember that hair is free and flowing, so try to draw hair not so much as a clumped shape, but a combination of dynamic lines converging to make a overall form. the best way to do this is look at a picture, the draw a rough face, then draw the hair quickly and with energy, just gaining a sense of the way the hair moves, called gesture drawing. Then move back into defining it. Some refs:    a hair shading toot Lastly, noses..... Remember that most of the definition of the nose is by shading, since the bridge and top nostrils of the nose are simply slopes in the skin. So if you lining something, just focus on the nostrils and tip of the nose as opposed to lining the whole thing so it sticks out like two peas at the bottom of a carrote. twenty drawings of variously shaded noses (male) To get a more feminine look, go for a petite nostril area and long bridge. (can use the hair pics as reference) Hope that helped

Good start Scottsman, But you need to work on your proportions. Here you can see the corrected image on the left, and then the proportion scale used in the middle, and it referred to the original on the right via the guidelines. You can see that I've risen the nose and lowered the eye/brow line.I'm simply using the half rule. Meaning the bottom of the eyes is directly in the middle of the head. The bottom of the nose halfway between the eye line and chin, and the mouth between the bottom of the nose and chin. I basically cut up your drawing a bunch :lol: But only to illustrate a point, the head tended to slope inwards at the top, now, you might have intended it that way, but what I've done is reference your drawing with a average proportion scale. Hopefully I've helped you in some way, keep working those proportions!

Thanks man. I knew about that system of proportioning the head (the segmented circle), but I've never had it explained like that...it helped out. Most of the time I just draw a face starting with the nose and buiding out...because I got lazy...and didn't use the segmented head. But here's a little render using that thing:

In a way, you can compare the horses limbs with humans. It's easier to remember the limbs in that way I think, and you'll know wich way they bend aswell   (I learned this from "learn how to draw spirit with James Baxter" DVD Bonus material for "Spirit" ^_^) |

I've recently got back in to drawing after not doing any for aaaaages - but here's a few pencil sketches I've done recently. They were done on lined paper
And also the bottom one has drawings on the other side of the page coming through, doh! I was just making these up off the top of my head in the effort to practice a bit, but any comments would be cool! 2 Pics |

Good stuff fizzy, you might wanna check the hair comments i posted on the previous page, otherwise she looks great! Have any plans to line and paint it? A very colorful paint Dash, we could use more of that around here But something i've noticed is your colors tend to be very saturated, try to use the light and dark scale, pick a light origin and use it in your painting, that way they will look 10x more realistic. I see some shadowing, but its very light, as if the character was standing in a room filled with florescent lights.here is a great tut on painting with light, atmosphere and perspective. |

Hey thanks -AnTiSeAl-
Yes - the hair lol Stiff as anything lol Maybe she just doesn't wash it? It started as a practice for a look over the shoulder, then turned into a full body practice. Up til now it's been faces, faces faces, so I need to practice hands, feet, body proportion, poses etc ...AND hair
 I may trace over it in flash and see what I can do with colouring, but I'm just doing loads of pencil n paper practice before I attempt some Wacom animation ideas. Thanks again! |

Hehe, thats a freaky looking guy! I like the style!
Only things I could see: the left leg is a bit weird - looks like a backwards knee or a long foot - either way I think the left leg is shorter than the right. Also, the body is a 3/4 view and the head a profile - I know he could be looking slightly to the right, but if you were going for an animated pose, such as the head turning to look somewhere, then maybe have him looking to the left for a more front on view of the face/head - that might be a more dramatic pose? i dunno, I'm a noob but I guess any constructive crits might help - wish I got more for mine, hehe Looks cool though, nice cock!......not you!  the pic
LOL
