I really like the composition and over-all idea. I feel that it's a little bit too dark/grayscale, though. I've done a quick paint over to brighten it up and make the stars more apparent. Hope this is of some help!

Bit worried about the plates as they look too big for shelves and sink into wood.
@kkffoo,
Thanks for the feedback and specific advice. I'll fix the size and position of the plates.
Very respectfully,

Poorly done hand-drawn art is still poorly done art. Be a Poser (or better yet, use DAZ Studio 3D) - dare to be different.

All the art's run out for me to comment on. V_V oh well, I'll just upload something new.
This guy's just a one off, he might appear in a story or something at a later point in time. I drew this entirely on my laptop, which is why the lines are a bit shoddy. I know someone suggested not to use dodge and burn while still a rookie, but I find it the easiest way to do the hair and the eyes. (sorry i forget who told me that).
This is Carther, the self proclaimed prince of the desert. And i don't even know why it's the Self Proclaimed. He just wanted to be called that lol. Opinions anyone?

The colors and stylization are very cute. The only thing I'd suggest, is to use a different background pattern (it looks like a screen cap of the generic photoshop bg that is checkered, with some color over it.) I could be wrong, and it could just be some checkers! But I think even a variation in size/shape would help a lot. Nice use of gradients! :3

Thank you~

And that background was really random. XD And yes, you are wrong, this pattern is quite bigger than the PS bg one, I know, because I sometimes do use it-LOL XD I just like checkers for bgs, no matter how big or small they are ~<3

I'm trying to learn Construct 2 so I can make a side-scroller based on The Buried Moon. I also spent more time on this than I originally meant to.

Thanks!
I'll probably remake it (because I changed the entire game idea), but keep it similar to that one, with that glittery 'frame' around the main picture :P

>Mink: I like your style for the character, but I feel that the pose should be a bit more dynamic? I mean, it looks like there's some fighting going on

>AshenhartKrie: I'm not convinced by the shading (hair and hat specially) or the shape of that ear :/ I really like his eye, his expression and color scheme though



Here's a design for a main character of the completely changed Cosmic Voices. I'll add more detail, specially to her hair and to her clothes (she needs earrings and that hat is looking kind of boring right now), and but I'd love some opinions. She's about 22 years old.

Decided to mess around a bit with Abraham's design a bit today:
Sketch090.jpg
This one has a more "journalist" vibe than his other designs for some reason :/ Should also fix the eyes a bit >>;
(Then again, I did get the idea for the outfit from one of my family members, who happens to be a journalist as well)

My cartoons fail.

My Journalism homework. I liked the style, but it looks like semi-manga so I'm still modifying stuff in it. After several anatomy practice, even thought the poses looks simple, it's okay, I guess TuT

I'm now in love with Bastion. <3 So I attempted to draw The Kid (who I'm pretty sure isn't really a kid, but is just a kid in comparison to someone else)
Image
And I will never not
save Zulf's life and take him with me, super weapon be damned.
Also, tried drawing the currently nameless rabbit girl:
Image
In which I attempt to draw a hanfu from memory to avoid totally ripping off one on a website's store and fail at it. Back to Google~

I was drawing my monstergirl character Neonata today, it's such a bland generic pose though. Her proportions are deliberately off.
neonata.jpg
Hijiri: The elbow crease is a little high, it should be aligned with the midsection. The hand is also somewhat large, and the character is faintly cross-eyed. Hopefully when you "ink" it these will also be fairly minor and easy fixes for you.

Mink: Aw, those are really cute!
I'm not even the same person anymore

I was warming up for some drawing but I got way ahead of myself. I ended up drawing a cast of characters that I originally planned out for another VN a year ago.
