*growls* I feel a bit passed-over, so I will try this again. *peers at Avy's picture*

Well, I know next to nothing about muscular anatomy, but this looks pretty good. The abs are nicely shaded, and I like the lines you used to define the neck and collarbone. The shoulders look kind of weird - the lines make me think of those conceptual pictures of people or animals with the skin stripped off so you can see the muscle structure underneath... not actual skin. And I'm not sure what the lines going down the forearm are supposed to represent. Tattoos, perhaps?

For all that this guy has such a wide chest, his hips and legs are awfully narrow. He doesn't look too stable either - the legs seemed to be turned slightly to the side. The pocket placement is uneven too. You spent so much time on the top half... I think you should have put some more work into the legs to even out the drawing.

I really like the guy's face. It's nice to see something different from the rounded features of the everyday anime character (which is pretty much what I draw, heh). Nose seems a bit too simple compared to the rest of the face and upper body, but I am really digging the eyes. They give him a very intense and serious expression.

This picture is a very good effort. I can see that you put a lot of work into the upper body. I think that if you put some more work into the lower half and cleaned up the linework some, it would be even better!

Now, let me try submitting this link again.... with the full URL so people don't miss it. This is my most recent attempt at a fully CGed picture.

No your not Rindi!

The Good:
-The pose, she looks like she's evenly distrubating her weight on both feet.
-The Background. :3



The Bad:
-Mostly dark colors, had to see where one character ends and the other begins.
-Her hands are a wee bit small, but that's alright. :3 Not really bad just off..

Since DF did not leave any links for me to critique, I'll put in a couple more comments on Rindi's work.

'Suoh Goes Clubbing'

It's a sweet pic! The style is fairly unique, and I certainly like the blending of blues, violets/purples, and blacks on the background and the dancers. It really gives that 'club' feel/atmosphere of the pic.

Very nicely done!

One nitpick though.... since this is a club, there's normally a lot of lights moving around. Some highlight effects on Suoh, or the other dancers would have upped the effects some more. You color very well (certainly a helluva lot better than me), and additional highlights to simulate the spot lights, etc, would have made this work perfect. Very Happy

Overall, excellent work, Rindi!

Here's mine:

Enjoy!

critique on this one please [/quote]
That's a very neatly done piece of art.

The colors are rather soft on the eyes, especially the flowers. The drawing was nicely done. Very simple.

A couple of nitpicks though, the right arm is a littlebit shorter than the left, plus, you could have addded more on the space of the background.

Overall nicethough. :)

The girl ,whos standing, her right hand, the one that's shown, is a little off. The wrist doesn't look natural.

But besides that, it's a very good pose. ^^; I'm guessing that the girl with the hair on top of her head is the dominate while the bald heade woman is the submissive.

It also seems that the woman standing is the dominate by the extra additives that you did to her outfit instead of the other's.

^^

I'm not so good with critiques but i will at least try...

The good stuff:

-The shading, it looks soft but it could use some more dark tones.
-The writing, I really like the way you wrote her name.
-Left hand, its a really difficult pose to work with but you did it well!


The bad stuff:

-The right hand, it looks as if it wasn't on its place, and theres no arm
-The body, theres no body!
-The scroll, I think that the position of the scroll is imposibble to make in real life.
-The right side of the face, it looks too "straight".


I will try to make better critiques from now on...

http://www.fanart-central.net/pic-210832.html
my comp makes the drawing suck (its pretty obvious because its impossible to make that kind of squares by hand)

Good points

- Mood seems ok but would be nice if the sword was touching the ground or longer for a more pronounced pose. Maybe even facing up towards his face, as if he is preparing to strike at something.

-Basic proportions are accomplished

Bad points

-Need more detail
(Like folds in his sleeves and texture in the fabric)

-Shading improvements, (where is the light source? its almost one shade of grey)

-Proportion refinement (yes you got the basics down, but how about building on it? His left and right shoulders are not evenly matched and his left fore arm is a bit off to name a couple)

Id gives it a 3/10 (It needs some sprucing up) But keep practicing! ^_^ Its a growing process.


well I will give this a try http://www.fanart-central.net/pictures.php?pid=202340

Pour Nathangelpolak


The goods

Very detailed, colour theme is perfect and the Movement is described well by the blur.


However,

The cheetah is the main focus of the picture but is not big enough compared to the background (make it bigger)

Also, the background looks CG but the cheetah was done by pencil crayons, which I think is the worst medium to mix together (Pencil Crayon doesn't even scan that well).

8.8/10


Please critique my picture at http://www.fanart-central.net/pic-239512.html

The good stuff:

-The folds... I love the way you fold the clothes it looks real.
-The hair... It looks natural and covers the skull instead of just decorating it.
-The symbol... It just looks cool ;)


The bad stuff:

-Position of the eye, its too far away from the nose.
-The ear, it looks weird, maybe its just the angle...
-The mouth, doesnt it look weird to you?
-The hand seems misplaced, there seems to be no limb behind it.

Thats about it, could you please critique this picture, its pre-load so dont flame me, its still sketchy and its not on my gallery so i post a link to the photobucket thingy...
just tell me what to fix before i color it...

Da Good:
- The face sculpture. i like it, it's orginal and differant
- Detail is interesting. But try adding some more


Da Bad:
- The hair is a bit off.
-The head seems a little small
- Shoulders should be wider


Now here's my pic: (it's so dorky...)

Pour DragonicFlames

Les Bons

-Design a la mode, stylish
-good composition and general setting


Les Mals

-BLURRY! What did you scan it with?
-Not enough Gradient, almost no dimensions.
-Color is just there... it's not really doing anything like contrast nor setting a mood.



My 2nd pic, here:

Okie , I will go a bit over Brianhjh's

- The Good:

- I really like the pose and the expression, caught pretty good
- anatomy seems correct to me over all
- Interesting Textures
-The coloring gives it a own style

-The bad:
- I wouldn't put an outline to the background, you could make it a bit blurrier so that it looks like it is far away.
- Line Weight, thicker shadow lines and thinner light lines would give it more deep, but that's just a suggestion, ... just what you like.
- hard shadows, the light source isn't eactly defined, but as well that's also a thing you can make how you like it your self... ^_^

So ... I could need some crits on this one, before I start to color it:

Facts from me, I think the strechted arm is to short... and a few other stuff looks odd.

Greetings!

Good:
-Pose
-Wing structure and Detail
-Looks like he is pretending to sing into a mic. (lol!)

Bad:
-The torso seems a little to fat and squished in an odd way. :/ Like the torso is at an odd angle. I don't think it bends like that without hurting.
