I think I've heard of that b4. ^^

So what inspired you to draw that?

:sweat: Heh running out of time. ;-) We had to do two pictures for art class and i already did one so i just printed off this picture. I only did it because i thought it was a pretty picture but then the teacher saw me with it and asked if i was going to paint that. So before i knew i i had said yes and was stuff with a 40.6 50.8 cm board. And it turned out great! I still have the ribbon i won from it.

You earned it, Kako-chan! ^_^

I'm no artist, but I'm good at appreciating it. :sweat:

I like the art you do for your classes most. Namely the flower and the weird green ladder... thing.
Some of the other stuff you do is interesting, I guess? xD Probably better than I could do with the dragons, and I like the first one you posted especially. As for your humans, they bug me a little, but they're pretty decent.

Maybe with some more practice :D

;-) This took me about two days, when your sick and at home you have to find some way to pass the time and drawing this was both calming and fun!

That's a pretty difficult subject for drawing... so convoluted. You made it all seem like one object though, and it all fits, looks sunk into space^^

That's a very good drawing. I love all the details in the clothing. But there are some things you could do to make it better.

First off, Hero's sword. It's...not very straight, and unless his sword's special and can wiggle around like that, I'd suggest taking a ruler and drawing a straight line where his sword is supposed to be, then building up the blade, hilt, guard, and pommel around that center line. I'm assuming that Hero's twisted around so that he's looking over his shoulder out at you; if that's the case, his lower torso shouldn't look like he's facing you straight on. It'd be better (and probably more comfortable for the guy) to have the lower torso angled a little in the same direction the rest of his body is facing. His arm looks pinched as you approach the elbow; keep in mind arms are the same thickness no matter what pose they're in, so don't make his upper arm taper off like that as it gets to a joint. Perhaps angle the sword out a bit more so it doesn't look like he's poking himself in the face or neck with the guard.

Now for Angel. I can see her right arm fine, but I can't tell where her left one's gone. Either it's behind her or it's turning into a wing or...making it more clear where her arm is and what it's doing would probably get rid any distraction questions someone could think of when looking at your drawing. Her hair is well done, but hair typically doesn't flip upward that much, even in high wind; it tends to stream out horizontally, with the very tips pointing slightly more downward than the rest. The longer the hair, the less horizontal it tends to go, unless you're standing in (for example) hurricane-force winds; that'd make any hairstyle fly out to the side.

Still, it's a good picture. There's a dramatic, action-y feel about it. Good job with it. :3

I love your dragons. ^^ There are some problems, though. I'm guessing they're not finished yet? If not, you can easily fix things and add things after reading this. ^^
On the first one, the webbing could use some wrinkles. The curvature of the webbing fingers could use some joints, and variation in the curve. Overall, adding some details such as rubs, muscle groups etc. could really give your dragon a more realistic appearance.

On the second one, the arm in the foreground is too short. The hind leg in the foreground needs more indication of muscle. The other hind leg you indicated the muscle well. Also, the fronts of the hind legs are a bit too flat. make them bulge a bit more, and add the impression of muscles on the fronts of the legs. For a skinny dragon like this, it's important to make defined ribs. The tail doesn't taper naturally. It gets thicker, then it gets thinner. Making it swoop and curve more would also add to the feeling of the mobility and thinness of the tail. Lastly, the fur on the dragon's body doesn't seem to be catching the wind like his whiskers do.

The only thing I see that's glaringly an error on the third on is one of the dragon's forearms. It's too curved. Instead, you should make a joint at the wrist, and keep the forearm itself fairly straight.


Nice work. ^^
