Title: shart
Post by: shura on February 22, 2010 05:33 AM
i was going through old doodles and sketches and found a lot of shit that i had abandoned and wanted to touch up. i know i haven't showed any of my art in a million years and i have so many other unfinished sketches that im dying to revamp. this is only the tip of the iceberg.  some of these characters are mine, and some of them are not. some of this stuff is super old and some of it i did yesterday. feel free to critique the shit out of it !

i actually have colored versions of most of these but i dont want to show them because  but they might show up on my DA eventually

Edit: Also this pic is quite large and when resized in this window some of the details may be lost so i dunno it might be good to do "right click > view image" or something

fun fact: some of these were actually scrapped entries for tba tournaments. big behemoth thing was gonna be my original "steampunk" tourney entry and the centaur was for a tourney we had ages ago where the theme was "music" or something. i was gonna draw other gay little mythical creatures playing various other instruments and holy shit im so glad i didnt!!!!!!!!!!!

These are all very well done and fun to watch

your lines are very defined and varied in weight wich is a very good thing

I didnt know you drew monsters as well! I love the big guy!

your strong points are definitely anatomy/poses and the way you fit clothes on your characters, it all looks really natural. you've got a great grasp on your style too, you can exagerrate without getting carried away

i also like the little quirks you give em that arent that obvious at first

are the tophat guy and the chubby chick a duo or something? they probably have my fave designs of the lot

hey thanks for the feedback you guys are swell (:
and ye the cannon girl was from the superheroes contest, but i updated her and fixed some things that i was unsatisfied with.
i did some touchups to her hair, face, and clothing

Quote from: lenkabiscaare the tophat guy and the chubby chick a duo or something? they probably have my fave designs of the lot

they're my favorite too. they're also the 2 most recent drawings on there (done a couple days ago). they're not a duo, but they may look similar because all of my newer stuff has much thinner lines than my older stuff. i didn't even realize that until i compiled all this junk into one document

oh btw they aren't characters or anything. i just drew em to experiment with different clothing/anatomies.

Quote from: shuraWork in progress. I just drew this today. officially the first drawing i have made in my 20th year

i dunno. im definitely open to critique and suggestions. i spent a lot of time on this drawing so i can't look at it anymore.
also it looks a lot better in full-view. for some reason it looks really shitty quality when resized

Sexy. Doesn't look like anime imo. You should definitely color it.

Aside from the general moe-eyes and what my friend said about most anime using different proportions, I can't really tell what's anime anymore and this piece doesn't strike an anime vibe to me.

I wish I could help you somehow, but I can't really think of anything aside from liking what I see. Long arms are long and the torso is pretty much dwarfed by them, but that's a stylistic choice, methinks...?

thanks you guys (:

also hnil i think you're right about the arms looking too long. when i drew the sleeves of her jacket i made them larger so they do look kinda off. i'll adjust that.

also i plan on giving her pants. i was too lazy to draw them before
