I think this one turned out ok, but there is something about it that dosen't seem quite right...

Demon with a Glass Hand · 09-02-2004, 04:15 PM

From what I can see, Master, the basic shape and posture of the character is well done, though I am not entirely sure of where the center of wieght is. If the character is standing completely straight, I can forgive this. But if the character is favoring one leg over the other (center of balance) the posture is wrong.

Additionally, I feel that while the hair is well done, the one strand that is falling infront of her ear, should be brushed behind it. It feel the look would be more natural that way. Her hand is also a trouble spot. The clenched fist doesn't look natural. It appears as though she is burying her thumb under her fingers.

Otherwise your style is improving. Keep up the practice!

And, everyone that whom I've critiqued (constructively, I would hope), fear not, my artwork shall be on display very soon for you to do the same!

MasterOfMagic · 09-02-2004, 04:22 PM

Oh, thats what it was. She is supposed to be favoring one leg over the other. Thanks, that was very constructive. I try and draw at least one drawing every day, so no worries about the practice.

Can't wait to see some of your art.

Woot, sharing art. Let's see...

One of my more recent images... One of my increasingly rare black-and-white peices. It's one of the images I came up with as a possible peice of cover art for my novel that I hope to someday publish if I ever find a publisher. The person in the picture is the novel's main character, Dorcia.

The background sucks, I know -_-; I received a thourough bashing about that when I presented this for critique in art class.

Wow, that is one of the best drawings I've seen here. Wow, it so nice that you should just attach it, or use the [IMG] tags, it's so nice.

Nosferatu · 09-02-2004, 06:06 PM

whoa.... Pike who ever bashed you for that has to be blind to good art. Cuz that look's very nice to me, and i even enjoy the background as it fit's in so well with the picture.

MasteroMagic: I feal that yhe body and everything look's alright only thing i thought was kinda "off" was just how... uh... "empty" the face was. I think the eye's should've been done atleast a little bit more or something... heck i don't know anymore...

PlasticWorld · 09-02-2004, 07:19 PM

i like your pic Master. i think that it would look a little better with some shading and the piece of hair over the eye is a little funny. other than that, its awesome.

SelanPike. B00M!. did you hear that? that was me getting blown away by your pic. freaking hella tight.

i worked on this all day today. yes, its another reference, but i think im getting better.

pochercoaster · 09-02-2004, 07:47 PM

MoM: Her nose seems a little high up, but otherwise very nice. She's very pretty.

Selan: That's a really great picture, very evocative. Post more!

Plastic: Awesome work. Only thing I can suggest is working on the shading of his shoulders.

I'll be posting a picture as soon as I get off my lazy butt and finish it. So close yet so far. -_-

What do you mean by doing the eyes more? As for the emptiness, she's supposed to seem cool, calculating, and uncaring. Maybe I took it too far or something?

EDIT: Selan: Really, really nice looking. Wuvs it.

Plastic World: Nothing wrong with using a reference, heck, I do it all the time. Looks good.

Thaumaturge · 09-04-2004, 08:47 AM

I like it, MoM. The only criticism I have is that the hair looks a little too... stiff. Other than that, very good indeed!

Hmm... It's about time that I got around to posting something here, so here are two sketches of mine... (and no, they're not supposed to be in the same scene)
