anthro-lizard sketch (do-over!)

Here's a link to an anthro I drew:

I'm pleased with how it turned out, but I'm sure it still needs work. I'm still learning about anatomy and stuff, so any crits, redlines, suggestions, etc. would be appreciated.

Things I can see myself right off are the position of his head; it's a little too far to the right. Also, I think his chest might be a bit too big compared to the rest of his body. Let me know what you think, and if there's anything else that needs work. Thanks!

Nice Anthro! I would say that his chest is at a very strange angle to his neck and head - apart from that I really like it, especially the feet!

Thanks!
I think I see what you mean. It would probably be more natural at a more 3/4 angle, no? I'll have to work on that...

It's a really neat anthro! I like lizard anthros... He seems like a cool character, but I can give you redlines on a few things if you want. Just let me know! 8D You seem to be headed in the right direction.

Thank you! I would love some redlines if you'd feel so obliged! :amused:

And thanks, I've been working on drawing the human figure. I've been practicing a lot, so it's nice to see some improvement once in a while. :up:

I'll be busy a lot of the day, but I should get some spare time tonight to whip up some redlines for it! I'll see what I can do... :-)

Sure, whenever you have the time is fine with me. I'll keep practicing in the mean time.

Gh! Sorry for the wait, I was gonna get to it last night but the main computer was occupied. >:I And that's the one with photoshop...

Here we are! What I did is generally went over the neck, shoulders, and chest a bit. You had the right idea, but it just looked a little off. Thicker neck, sliiightly narrower chest, not such wide-set shoulders, somewhat more muscular arms. I also went over the pectorals a little and kind of went over the abs, but to be honest I suck at abs so for those you may want to find real refs. :-m

I also made the legs a little longer and went over the feet, but do the feet however you want because I can only really do paws. XD I also just laid out the loin cloth differently so it drapes over the left leg a bit more.

I also altered the hand and arm poses some and went over the face so that the bit above his eye makes an angry-eyebrow kind of thing. It already did that before, though, to an extent - I just wanted to make him look even moar serious! >:3

Wow! That's... wow... :surprised:

Thank you! Thank you very much, that was very helpful! :amused:

Mmkay, I've got an updated version:

Much improved (thanks to Atomic Soldier!

)
I can't quite get his expression right though. I wanted him to look very angry, but all I could manage was something that looked mildly peeved. As you can see, I tried redoing it, but something's still off, and I'm not quite sure what. As always, critiques/suggestions are appreciated!

Edit: Oh skittles... I just realized I forgot his tail! :embarrassed:

Um... for now, just pretend that it's strait out behind him!)

N'other Edit: Okay, he has his tail now. :cool:
