Title: Blackbx's Corner - My growing path
Post by: blackbx on November 13, 2014 08:58 PM
I'm new and stuff..[[Learning]]
Found this Forum and thought that it was a good idea to post my art here and get some reviews/feedback to correct my flaws and keep on growing, I most likely draw something everyday so i probably will post something everyday as well. Please feel free to make any suggestions, all helpful/constructive feedback is appreciated. I would like to grow while i share my learning path with you.
Welcome to my corner....You can call me "A"
Digital Art update: Feeling more comfortable with different types of brushes. Trying to define objects and shapes.

it feels wonky to me

i dont know its like the colors and the whole composition try to distract you from all of these imperfections

but Keep It Up

and uhhh make your brush choice less perceptible maybe

i can dig it.
the only thing is that in some places the hair seems to start from somewhere other than the head.

(also you may want to put up an intro thread in the intro section of the forums)

hello A, welcome to the boards. you've picked a very simple style, so don't get too lost in meticulous details like individual hair strands. you don't want to lose the focus of your piece. focus more on the overall shape that hair makes rather than the individual strands.

cute, although the girls' blue hair is kind of hard to read with the sky being almost the same color

Well, Inspiration can from anywhere, i just sit every night and think about my day and the things that happened, things that i saw, things that i heard, anything, and i start sketching ideas..As for style, truth is that I don't try to get "a style" but i suppose that what people call "style" is actually the way in that every single individual expresses their ideas, just like personality, it is different on each of us.

personally i would have picked a softer brush for the jellies since they are very soft and round, there's some jaggies on them from the brush's texture. but overall it's a nice piece
