Tim, I love where you're going with this. Great job on those clouds-- they created the desired effect well.  The pose reminds me a lot of a piece done by Jim Cheung. He uses a lot of dust and particles to create movement and dynamics in his work.Did you have to cut the sword off though!?  Also, the meteor looks a little funny where it is placed and on its current course--- Peter had best mind his head. :lol: Here is a quick thumbnail of ideas:  -Open up the canvas! -Though it defies normal sky patterns, try adding some fleeting stars and darkness in the right-stage. It might help to make the meteor 'more at home.' -A glint on the blade of the sword.  |

 Thanks everyone for the help, and especially Thanks com for massive help with the head. I too everyone’s advice and scraped the old version and started over. Ak, the meteor is suppose to be tink, I basied it off a will-o-wisp like in the old movies and books, and not the cartoon fairy of Disney, matt gave me advice to move her to the left Conner. Today I’m going to go get it printed; I have to turn it in tomorrow, so. I really don’t have time to add to much more, but any quick things you notice I should do? ---------------- Edit ---------------------- Pogression of peter Fist sketchs - Kids imagination, with yikkles doll Peter pan 2 - very blah and meh Peter pan 3 - Getting better Peter pan 4 - My fav |

If you have time, you might want to adjust that sword handle. I don't have time to show you, but it looks a little flat. Other than that, reeeaally good. |

I personally don't think the image needs to be "destroyed" anymore than it already is... It looks great, except for the minor detail of the sword and that the text is a little off center. |

I think the main problem now is that he doesn't have his left shoulder. |

 Hey,I appreciate all the crits, but as of 7 am it was done and over. Sorry for everyone who posted helping me afterwards. The final version is below.  although when i got it printed at Kinkys (kinkos) it came out like this  It'll be framed tommorow, handed in then next day, then its off to the auction. I'll make sure to get pictures of the auction, and I'll make sure to tell you guys how much it sells for (if it sells). Fuck, I'm tempted to buy it. |

Sorry I'm not actually not posting my work, but I am in progress of a digital painting which features a lit character on black background. I want to do a light steam coming up and curling around the person. Any tips on Photoshop-painting steam? I'm practicing it, but if someone already knows a good way to paint steam, I don't want to reinvent the wheel. |

Gouache on cardboard, 100x70 cm. Hah, that was slightly difficult. No wonder it's called PAINting. Oh, but I had fun. Too bad I ran out of paint!

Ok... I've been working on this for a while thinking I could make it better: But, sadly, it still looks pretty crappy. What I'm really having trouble with is that blue light in his cannon. I want it to be like the main light source in the picture. I want his face and body to be lit up by the blue light and then really push the shadows on the sides of his body where the light doesn't hit. But, I started to do it and sucked it up. Bad. Help? |

I don't know, I'm getting the impression your brushing was way too dry. You should use some more water, especially with goache it's about finding a good balance in wetness. try to use a big brush also. [size=1]I prefer acrylics personally, rubs out more easily and doesn't smudge when you paint over.[/size] |

ok so i used to draw pictures on paper & flood fill them in photoshop, then touch it up with the pencil tool, more flood filling & a lot of blurring, but now my scanner is broke so i gotta use a mouse  so i thought i should practice rather than avoiding it. please critique
  Edit: ok so i drew another one while waiting for a reply so here it is

I like the looks of that one, tough the lighting doesn't make any sense. It's night, yet everything is fullbright and the the rock is casting shadow. You could give everything a darker more blue colour pallete. Look at some of Adam's waterfall nightscenes, you'll see what I mean

ok i got two versions, the simpler solution was just to make it day & thats this one the other way was to make a new layer & flood fill a transparent blue over everything but the sky. here that is.

Something im currently putting together, it probably will never make it through to completion knowing me. It is designed as an 'alternate universe' type thing based on brackenwood. Its called the mufiru desert mufiru works out as mfr in saurus which means big. constructive critisism wanted. and any one wanting to provide sound and/or music for it once its a little more completed would get big brownie points with me (im 14 and have no income to buy sounds or pay someone to do them for me(oh and i have no musical talent and my family are too busy to help))Here it is, The Mufiru Desert the characters name is Redma btw, which means young Tim. thanks |

Bodot that's too cute... I love it......I am a fan of cartoon characters coming in contact with butterflys as well.
ramem farso welcome! Nice honest effort, however i'd take that feather gnat out and make something else that doesn't hit so close to the whole Brackenwood mythology. |

yeah, I cant think what else to replace it with though. I'll think of something. Also, theres a large pause of just sky, i forgot i took the huge bird out of that. There was a huge bird that flew over head before you see the tree redma is sleeping under but it didnt look right, so i redid it and that didnt look right either. Anyone got any advice on drawing birds from underneath? Ramem Farso Dorela Teror |
