Plug yourself here (aka post your artworks for us to see and possibly laugh at)

In fact, I did some practice sketches n' stuff.
and a bird

Those are actually pretty nice.

But again, proportions, proportions, proportions.

http://realcolorwheel.com/human.htm Check this out for a bit.

I'm still reading that website as I'm typing this.

Mind. Blowing.

fixed it.

but really, great rendering, bad mostly everything else.

Those look real good. I especially like that bird that's going "AWWWW YEEAAAAH"

Showing my drawing in front of a mirror usually helps me spot mistakes.

i'm really drunk
and tha t freaked me out




niced job bby

I didn't know there were stunned black people with tiny heads in anime :O

Admit it, you draw yaoi,


The resemblance is uncanny-er.

Aha! busted.

Sry to disappoint, but no, I don't draw Yaoi. I probably draw proportions out of whack because of my major influences, those being Akiman, Gouda Cheese, Kinu Nishimura, Shinkiro, and Kishimoto. That's why the female I drew had increased volumes at the end of her limbs.

Edit: Forgot to mention Robaato. I was also wondering if anyone could provide their thoughts on the colored pic that I did. The "ugly women."

any crits on this one?

I'm trying to get more movement into my drawings

Is nice, I don't like the girl's forearms/arms pose, I can't specific what I don't like though, maybe it looks to cartoonist?

She looks like a monkey.

foreshortening with the legs is a little wonky, she looks like she has dwarf legs
the shadows on the (her) right leg is weird and throws off the anatomy
the perspective of the table, shouldn't we have a slightly more extreme bird's eye view of the scene?

otherwise good and a nice concept image

can't tell if those are boobs or an inflated man-chest

and here's more. Working on a character for a story right now so I made a... I guess I would call it a character profile chart, but whatev. What are your thoughts on the character. Is he okay? Is he too generic? Anything I can do to improve him yet.

Also, I haven't completely decided on what the color scheme for his overall palette would be. I was considering black with both a bright regular or neon orange and dark blue accents/stripes. His eyes would be hazel and gold. As for hair, I'm not sure if I should make it a dark blue with dark purple or Ultramarine shadows and hue or to just make it black with a blue streak.

thanks guys it helps : )

I think you really need a tutorial on eyes. Something about them ruins everything else.

can't say i like the smudging for shadows. maybe for concept images like this you should leave them out, you just want the likeness of the character after all.
also try improving your confidence with lines. it's currently very scratchy from where you are going back and forth over the same line. one smooth line is more appealing than a chicken scratch edge. compare the sharper hair edges to those of the face and neck.

the character itself obviously looks like an anime/street fighter hero. that could be fine depending on the world you have made, but yes a little generic at this stage. maybe give us a clue on the story you have started?
