Description Another style attempt using one of my guinea pigs, Alex. WITH A NEW CHARACTER DESIGN! :3

I did this pretty much all in one layer with no guidelines. It still looks meh though.

Oh well.

Hope you enjoy him and his white-blonde hair.

LadyKuki In reply to PictureOnProgress [2012-12-16 00:29:50 +0000 UTC]

I changed his jersey color to red(although I might change it) and his jacket color to blue.

Also, his jeans are a grey, khaki-ish color so yeah.

I am satisfied... it's just that I need to get the idea down on paper first, then draw it out digitally.

I'm going to miss his old color scheme though.

But you can't go back to his old look because of whatever happened.
You even left me thinking about Hazemme's current look...

Don't tell me it's because of me critiquing
After all, you sort of wanted me to stop posting just jokes...Or did I misunderstand?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

LadyKuki In reply to PictureOnProgress [2012-12-20 01:02:29 +0000 UTC]

It is.
To be honest, I'm starting to get annoyed by critiques. I'm well aware that I'm not a perfect artist and I'm far from professional, but it's starting to look like you guys are just nitpicking every little mistake I make in my drawings. I also know that it's used to help artists "improve" in their drawings, but really, I see most of these critiques as nitpicking rather than actual critiques.... At least try to red line my works or something to help fix the anatomy rather than saying "it's wrong" and not telling me why.

Look, I'm trying my best to make my anatomy as accurate as possible. I'm studying realism and all of that wonderful stuff. It's not as easy as you think it is, especially when trying to draw a dynamic pose. It's REALLY hard to find good dynamic pose references. So I'm like, why not? Let's try out a dynamic pose to see if it fits. I try every method possible in hopes of getting the anatomy right for hours just to have someone say "it's off!".

I know this is the internet, but still. <.< I guess in order to not start any flame wars or arguements over my disagreement with critiques I might as well start disabling comments until I get to a level that isn't as obvious when it comes to flaws.

Oh well. You know what they say: "You can't win them all."

PictureOnProgress In reply to LadyKuki [2012-12-20 01:07:03 +0000 UTC]

I could think that you're overreacting, but considering you have high-standards, I can see why you're annoyed.
And note I never said it was an easy task to try real anatomy...I've tried it myself and it's quite hard at times.
Whatever suits you... I don't want to talk with you being hot-headed, anyway, as it can give us both a bad moment

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

LadyKuki In reply to PictureOnProgress [2012-12-20 01:12:40 +0000 UTC]

Good that you think that. :I

True. I have very high standards. I hate it when my work in general isn't up to where it's supposed to be. I CAN take critiques if they're detailed enough, like where the artist tells me why it's wrong and how I can fix it, but when it's just straight up "There's something wrong with ___" without telling me how to fix it, it just gets a little annoying. :C

It is hard, which is why I'm studying realism and taking art classes. I feel that drawing pictures from magazines doesn't help much... or maybe I'm not doing it enough.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

PictureOnProgress In reply to LadyKuki [2012-12-20 01:19:34 +0000 UTC]

Then I'm partially to blame in this

I decided to just use it as a 2nd style, and not even then do I look for so much detail (you know how my work is...)
Hmm...What about drawing actual people? As in, using a model?

(I did Hazemme's alt. if you're interested)

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

LadyKuki In reply to PictureOnProgress [2012-12-20 01:23:46 +0000 UTC]

Sorry. I really don't know how you should critique then... I guess be a little more specific on how I should fix it?

I try, but unless if they're not moving, it's really hard, which again is why I'm going to take art classes.

Alright.

As soon as I read that textwall you wrote:

That's why I prefer a cartoon style

LadyKuki In reply to PictureOnProgress [2012-12-20 02:26:28 +0000 UTC]

My style is cartoony. It's just toward the realistic cartoony.

But then again... all cartoons even the simple ones need a basis in reality, so you're still not safe if you draw cartoons and say it's okay to mess up the anatomy.

PictureOnProgress In reply to LadyKuki [2012-12-20 02:33:20 +0000 UTC]

Don't think I mess the anatomy just for the heck of it I do watch out for hands that I think are too small or anything else weird

LadyKuki In reply to PictureOnProgress [2012-12-20 02:34:48 +0000 UTC]

Noooo... I didn't mean that. I'm just saying that even when drawing simple cartoons like you do you still have to be careful. It's easier to make it less inaccurate though.
