No help? D:

Well, I sorta guessed on the leg placement, and it turned out okay, I think. Not good, but okay. And now I've added the flats - I'm trying to make this a little realistic, and I and the pen opacity brush are good friends. So here you go (it's still WIP):

Aw man, I'm so sorry I'm late with this. I hope it'll still help you though it's fully understandable if you don't want to change anything about it anymore.

I found he looked rather stiff with his upper legs so close to his body. I figured if they stood out more and were directed more forward, he'd look a bit more powerful. The bluelined chest pretty much speaks for itself.

I love all of your designs though, they're very original! I also love the soft coloring you've got on your latest critter so far, it really suits the creature!

By all means - thanks a lot, Lhune! I'll see what I can do - I don't think it'll be too difficult to change it.

RV: I'd call it a fire demon - that's what it is x3

Thanks to you too, Fyre^^


Let's see, new drawing:

A-T: My Companion

Hum, I can't draw chibis or humans to save my life xD I gotta practice!

No one?

Welel, lemme see... a colored doodle (I can't draw faces and it's just portraits):

Jalir and a Dragon


And I made some changes to the demon's anatomy - thanks again for the lines, Lhune:

Image

He looks better now, doesn't he?

Yet You Came Too Late

Comments or critique or anything? The picture isn't near as exciting as the title x3

Since you seem to be wanting critique and help with your images, I moved it to Art Critique. I assume this way people will have a more critical view on your images and post as such :).


Yet You Came Too Late: First of, the hawk looks fantastic! He may be a bit too blurry here and there, some of his feathers could have been little more refined. You did this well on the wings but not with the feathers on the head and chest. The face looks good overall though, and I really like they way you drew the talons, they're very life-like :3!
For the background I'd suggest using a more varied color scheme. It's lacking contrast quite a lot, making the hawk not really stand out against it. Since the hawk is made up of warm colours I'd suggest using more blues and greens in the background, that would really pull the attention of the viewer to the hawk. In fact, if you only made the sky blueish white, it would look better already. Other than that though, this is pretty good! :)

Chibi Kanio: I have little to critique on here. He looks perfectly adorable! The shading and highlighting style you picked suits the image very well. I love his big eyes x3.

Map of Irlatar: There's not much to say about the map yet. Right now it just looks like a map, there's little to critique on since you're the only one who knows what it's supposed to look like x3. Are you going to colour it? That would be very interesting :3.

Well, thanks a lot, Lhune, both for the moving and the critique :) You're right about the hawkie - I'm gonna fix up his feathers a lil' bit - and thanks for pointing out about the background too^^ Yeah, I think I'll color the map. And gryphon chibis are really fun to make -thanks again :amused:

Hum, I need some redlines. Or greenlines, or purplelines, or whatever... you know, lines. I'm really not much into cat anatomy or human anatomy, and I do really need some critique on this one before continuing. I've just roughed up (is that a word? Well, now it is.) the sketch a bit to make it... dunno, clearer. Just redline the anatomy you know, please - if you're not into humans, but into cats, then great, or vice versa, or perhaps you're into both, but either way, I really need some lines. And I'm aiming for semi-realism - the tiger's gonna be grinning, for instance. I don't know which pose looks best for (her) right front paw, either.

So... critique?
