It took me 4 hours to do the toning alone and 3 hours to do the sketch and lineart. A videogame giveaway happened and said that the poster will pick whichever illustration s/he liked, best drawn or not.

But then I lost to last minute entries of this as the Grand Prize Winner and this as runner-up. I know my entry is not anatomically perfect, but I felt like the best I did was outdo those that were hastily done on MS Paint :( Oh well... whatever the poster fancied I guess.


*pats back* Don't be discouraged! I've noticed that some forum contests tend to have 'special rules', which basically just translates to bias or wacky results. I've had the same thing happen to me once, slaved two days away on this and basically lost to a... Screenshot. In fact, another friend and I who joined, were accused of art thievery. orz

Cheer up, feel better, and have some ice-cream! I mean, the grand prize winner is a tortoise - there's no doubting the judgement is skewed.


Thanks, I got over it. Though I do give props to the large tortoise picture for use of color and nothing seemed jarring, unlike my anatomy so I guess the grand prize winner made more sense. The horse was questionable though...

This looks cool. <3
(I love your lines!)
Can't wait to see it finished. :>

Lol, Mal, you annoy the fuck out of me, really.
I don't even care about my colorning anymore.
Coloring, do whatever you think is best. I just... I... just leave me alone, really.
Err... enough of this monologue now.
I just want to get this game done.
Art is overrated anyways. D:

I'm not looking for critiques on this since I know its not my best work - But hey, when you've got a horrible camera and have absolutely NO EXPERIENCE IN OIL PASTELS, you know you're gonna start out bad.

Image

Took me 1 hour to draw this, and four hours total to color it... It was originally supposed to be chalk, but I had to go with oil pastels since apparently I couldn't read that day I got hit on the head.

Oooh! I like it!! :D

Two things immediately come to mind... first, I think either you should emphasize the black/gray color of the paper around the characters (like a thick outline) or bring the purple color more consistently around them so you don't have that sloppy "halo effect" where it's obvious you added the background after the subject was already drawn.

Second, the color schemes of the blue and red haired girls complement each other quite nicely, but then the colors on the third green-haired girl throw it off a little. I think because she is mostly comprised of secondary colors, but also because those shades seem more saturated than the colors on the other girls. Not sure how you could improve this now, but it might help to think of it next time. :)


EDIT: Misread your post and thought you said you were LOOKING for critiques. I'm sorry! ;_;
It really isn't bad for not being accustomed to oil pastels though, I like the scribbly/graffiti effect you have going a lot.

Gorgeous! O_O
I love the how you colored the background, especially the way the sky is colored. It looks really ethereal!
