wow really fun sketches ya got there man
fucking sweet shit
nice lines/coloring on red's clothing, the second one's my favorite, it's really design-y
my only gripe is that with so many exaggerated features it seems like your drawings ditch personality for the sake of looking...exaggerated. to me that tends to make it look ugly
other than that
abra
^^^^
otherwise it's brilliant
wow, these are fucking great. i love the pic of red. the shading and coloring is excellent. i think some of it may be too exaggerated for my taste, but your style is very interesting and fun to look at. i don't like the ones you did it ms paint though, only because the lines aren't smooth like when you draw shit in flash, making it look like the pic is in bad quality.
that guy with all the piercings is crazy
Lmfao these are ace
When i saw the redmongoose pic i was gonna say you needed to work on yer lines cos its veryyy scratchy BUT! scrollin further down everything was much smoother.
i think you got your style down, i'd love to see some colour play that isnt just there for the sake of bein colour
But yeah fukken excellent job. you draw a lot like one of my classmates, all twisted and not really 'uniform' but with appeal.
keep it up bro
thank you for the comments i really appreciate it!

yes, you figures it out, very good! It's true what you said, but the thing is i think that making exagerated looks is much more fun than making normal ones, which is why most of my drawings are exagerated. but i'll work on it, thanks! and the abra is there because its reds pokemon of choice.
Quote from: lenkabiscai think you got your style down, i'd love to see some colour play that isnt just there for the sake of bein colour
I was hoping someone would give me advice on that, because if theres something im bad at, its this: COLOR.
Everytime when i make a drawing, i think that i have ruined it when i color it(like the cowboys pic). I dont know it that's because i havent practiced with that long enough, or if its because of my colorblindness.(i cant see the 44)
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fcommons%2F7%2F7d%2FColorblind4.png&hash=97a2d737e97da9b3bee736492bd4cfc32486dae9)
which is why when i cellshade i like to use lines and keep it black and white (like the dinosaur and the piercing guy) or i dont cell shade at all. But the redm one, i spent like 80% of my time on the coloring. But i think i know WHERE to put the shades, i just dont know what colors to use.
anyway i'll add more soon, and i'll try to keep it less exagerated. thanks again!
dam u good
HAHA. Thats a great drawing. You werent by any chance inspired by the anime "Hajime no Ippo"?
you use a lot of lines in your work, something i don't usually like but you do it right. i like the red one the best so far
lmfao red looks like bruce campbell from http://api.ning.com/files/BAcPAB7hbbgq*o80...n_ash_1_cvr.jpg (http://www.monstersagogo.com/blog/uploaded_images/freddy_jason_ash-cover-741088.jpg)

thanks again everyone ill add more asap
Quote from: HammiHAHA. Thats a great drawing. You werent by any chance inspired by the anime "Hajime no Ippo"?
!! Yes, that may be true, i thought no one would make that comparison:P But i also think its because i do boxing myself, which is why i like hajime no ippo. so they both add up or something my english isnt very good

what about now?
works fine now yeah.
love em all, especially the one before the LOL bacteria.
eww those things are grosssss
Wow this stuff's really good!
I really like the dinosaur one because of how hard it is to do something like that in MS Paint.
As soon as I saw the boxing one though I thought of none other than Hammi and the Dempsey Roll...
Way to go!
in my long long time here this is probably my favourite user art thead on tba since wallys!!
that dinosaur is just wow
Great works! I love your style man...
haha these are brilliant
peircing guy si my favourite
thank you for the nice comments guys i appreciate them

hope you like those i promise next time there will be more colored stuff
they are just perfect for animation
lookin' sexy
great characters
Chickens have never looked so good! Can't wait to see some coloured stuff
loving all of it
i like your sketchy shading and defined lines. also that chicken character has a nice little range of emotions

when you first showed up on da boards i thought you were pretty neat, but I never looked in this thread until now. I gotta say these drawings are really good, very emotive and alive... this chicken pose is screaming for animation, man. You should really try more flash stuff
holy fuckin dick these are gewd
thank you guys, im glad you liked them!
right now im trying to figure out how artrage works, and i gotta say its a really nice program! you can download the starter edition for free right here (http://www.ambientdesign.com/artragedown.html).
for now im coloring one of my older drawings (see below)with the trace option
actually the thinker has his right elbow on his left knee
That chicken character of yours is really awesome, the same goes for your creativity.
Stylin man, keep up the good work.
Quote from: AshingtonChickens have never looked so good! Can't wait to see some coloured stuff
thanks! and about that coloring i think ill start with flash its the most easy when it comes to coloring, artrage is still too hard for me

thanks for encourgement, i think i like this character more than the others i have lined up for my flashes, but if i keep shoving things like this ill never finish anything, i think some other people have this problem too.
DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET RID OF THIS DILEMMA???????????
Quote from: HarryTheHeadactually the thinker has his right elbow on his left knee
hey youre right, the way i drew him he looks more as if hes looking at someone instead of thinking really hard
anyway i thought id take some pictures of the outside and get inspired by that to make my own landscapes, buildings, scenerys.
hey
what do you do to get inspiration for things?

Really good man... I love it so far
woah awesome shit. Especially that detailed chicken legs

the tree is fantastic. only critique i could give is perhaps improve the staging.
Excellent sketch chicken, theres no way i can crit that.
[spoiler]Yay im being surpassed. Just lovely.[/spoiler]
Keep it up, youre a born artist imho. Nurture it.

i was planning on widening the canvas, you think that would make it better?
Quote from: Hammi[spoiler]Yay im being surpassed. Just lovely.[/spoiler]
wow, that last picture with the vulture and the trees is incredible. i love how detailed your art is. even without colors and shading, your pictures have so much depth. i would love to see some colored sketches sometime though
im not done yet, cos im not very happy with the colors but i dont know any better
i wanted it to be more eerie and the light on the right should be more mysterious
maybe i should ket the moon be the lightsource? but then i have to change all the trees and stuff..
tell me what you think and help me out!!

It looks really good but If you want to nitpick then the light source makes it look like everything is floating on different planes. Maybe if you adjusted the sky's coloring to a sunrise hue,and the

some of these are fuckin beautiful. i feel like in some of them youre not really putting as much thought into it though tbh and your colors are kinda boring. you have amazingly good knowledge of shapes and perspective and i love your city drawing/two mouthed wolf thing but i think with your pretty lineart and good knowledge of things you could make fantastic finished things if you fucked around with color more
