Description Sketch: [link]

If you haven't yet watched 'El Tigre' on Nickelodeon...GO WATCH!

I would do unspeakable things to meet Jorge Gutierrez and Sandra Equihua, the creators of this awesome cartoon. ^^


This is Frida, she's so quirky and hilarious lol. I tried a more cartoony style, with the coloured outlines to hold true to the animated show, but of course it still looks like anime!
I'm fairly happy with the BG, I actually spent some time on it. Sorta grungy haha!

LOL they are? I'm sorry but I just don't see it. The leg on the right is facing TOWARDS the 'camera' not away from it.
Could you draw over top of it with your tablet as to what you think it should look like?

ooooooh kay, well it might just have been me, the joint on the outside right of the right leg lookd like a kneecap facing out, when a knee is facing forward the inner side of the leg juts out and contours with the calf and the other side is smoothed.

Well it's not, its facing the camera. XD
Not always it depends on your leg shape. Besides this is a cartoon so the style is different lol!

Haha well it helps when you are lazy and use just an airbrush to shade. XD
I love using digital now...I can fix so many little mistakes as I go...
LOL OMG. Look at the sketch...Notice another 'big mistake' that I can't believe I did, and only just noticed while I was working on it in photoshop?
