aaaron Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 That's pretty cool. It kinda looks like a game character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drummerpete Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 My main concern is the shading on the legs. I made them too dark ): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorn Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 nice. Was kinda wondering why you skipped those :Pother than them being the most brutal parts of the body to draw, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luriok Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Pretty good. One thing though I think the back side of her neck is really light; I didn't even notice it the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The back of her neck was light.(This is a life drawing, I forgot to mention that.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magezhilo Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 It looks good, only thing I have to crit is the lower part of the legs resemble just a rounded tube. Try not to always draw exactly what you see, but sometimes think about what you know looks right. For instance, the calf would come out and the ankle would be slimmer. I'm not saying to make a huge difference, only slight curves, they truly make a big difference.Also, try and go deeper with values. Don't just make things that are covered in light white; make the brightest things on the body white and try to shade the rest, making the darkest parts of the body equal the darkest the pencil can go.I'm not saying that you SHOULD do this, they're merely recommendations. If your teacher says to do things differently then don't listen to me lolGood luck, man ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sage Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 > I'm still learning I just though this was an exceptional piece of art for someone who can't draw. xDObviously that isn't true. ;)EDIT: The can't draw part. I see how that could be mistaken. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
