Hi everyone.. you may have seen me in the composing forums (listen to some here: http://www.youtube.com/user/sakura101avalon), but I'll post here too because I am an artist too ^^
First picture...

I'm gonna guess what you used to draw this... cause I like to guess. A pen and a highlighter.

I like the boldness of it. I can't really tell you anything else besides this... but telling us about what you did or why you did would help us tell you what you did and how you did.

I think them eyes are giving out the boldness vibe. heh.

I like the head and the use of colours there. The body... is what kill the drawing. But, study and practice will improve that... :3

I like the texture you are using. Looks like she could be a warrior or an elegant young lady.

It's obviously a digital painting. =P
Probably Paint Tool Sai, since he did say "sai" right on top of it...I wish I could find my Sai serial number...and my Open Canvas serial number...bleahhh.
For the works themselves...they're nice, but I think you should work on simple anatomy right now more than anything else, PP. You'd be able to draw a much larger variety of scenes if you put some practice in!

I was not trying to make the anatomy right in my latest drawing, since I was practicing another artist's style - and her style is not realistic.. ^^ I do agree about the general importance of anatomy though.
The great thing about PTSai is that once you purchase the program you can install it in an unlimited amount of computers... they're so generous.

It's looking good so far. Is it that a horn on her forehead?

I think it's a guy... wearing a blouse... nice job on the blouse btw. What's up with the dark black strip on his head? I don't believe it's hair. just careful with the nose, too. it looks crooked. it's either that or his left side of the mouth is too wide.

@ander... it's a demon girl thing... xD
and yeah, I know my symmetry needs improving but I can only realize what's wrong at least a week later. I think many artists have symmetry problems though.. :(

yep, that's a horn.. it was originally black but that would not work with the picture at all. :/
that's the problem with doing commissions - you have to draw the crappy designs people give you..and then make it work somehow... LOL.
no offense to anybody.. OTL

That's pretty darn creepy. It's somewhat mysterious to me.

Oh and yeah... I do agree that I see problems in my drawings after about a week as well.

I would redo those white lines but they're surprisingly hard to copy in a digital medium. O_O

Oh, I like this one. Cool colouring and style! I like the dark background that makes the head stand out.

By the way, avoid doing double or triple posts unless the previous post you typed is old that no one would noticed if you modify it. There is an "Edit Post" button under each post you have submitted.

I like the way the hair is done. Kinda reminds me of some music album cover thing, don't really know why :)
