Well.. I'll post me drawings, set's ect. ect. here for now on. Off course all comments and critics are welcome ^^

here's the first one, me first Chibi attempt (sp?):

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a94/19stinger91/d1af3692.jpg

I think the shoulders are a bit off, and I can't draw hands yet,, but overall it's a nice first one.

Aww. It's so cute, which means it has passed the first test of Chibi-ness. But, yeah, in terms of size proportions, it's not really Chibi. But you're pretty good in drawing the face and hair.

P.S. Nice word play on Art Thread too.

Stinger

Tnx Stel ^_^

I'm still not very good at proportions... gotta practise that,, but I kinda like this size of them too (even though it's not fully chibi now)... Just noticed on the upper-body the T-shirt looks really fake. But I'm really happy with the face :)

P.S. I didn't meant the word play... But when I posted it I noticed it :heh:

Keep the comments comming !!! ^_^

You're really great at this, Stinger. I like what you did with shadows and gradients. The red on the shoes might be just a little too bright though. Other than that, it's really good.

10 points for the one who can guess what it is (not so hard) XD

Stinger

Allmost Muf, It's a seashore on a stormy night, on the right is the shore, where the water clashes to the rocks, and the rest is the wave-ish sea... I notice it's a bit dark, so It's hard to see what it is..

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a94/19stinger91/waves2.jpg

maybe it's easier to see when it's bigger XD

Stinger
November 12th, 2005, 06:07 pm
I call it: 'Sting's going crazy with smudge tool' XD

Oh,, WTF am I doing... fucking me art threat up... CRAP >.<

Whooo ^.^ newest art... drawn yesterday and improved today..

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a94/19stinger91/Scannen0001.jpg

DEMON GIRL~! :vampire:

I haven't drawn the eyes completely yet, 'cause I'm going to do them with CG-in... Shadows and folds are not fully done yet either, Will be done in CG too.

proportions aren't perfect, but better than the chibi one... well, that's about it...

C&C welcome again! :)

P.S. srry for the huge size of the thing XD

Stel
November 16th, 2005, 12:22 pm
It's waay better than the one before, dude! Okay, this will sting a little, but will help you improve:
I like the clothes. Nice design that gives her a cool look. But the shoes don't match. I mean, she's all dressed up in the past-century suit and then she's wearing... sneakers? Something that looks more like boots would fit her better. And also, too many creases in her clothes. Creases make the clothes look more realistic, but you shouldn't go overboard.
But, anyway, she's kyute. :) Though sometimes she looks like a he to me. You get 2 thumbs-up from me. :D

Edit: He/She can be Count Dracula when he was a kid! (Sorry, just had the irresistable urge to post that)

Stinger
November 16th, 2005, 12:35 pm
tnx Stel !

D'oh for tha sneakers XD it's like a medieval movie with nike t-shirts >.<.. only problem ish I can't draw other than sneakers :heh:

I can see the big male-side of the girl too, maybe because I haven't drawn the eyes yet?

people like you help me improving me art,, 2 thumbs up 4 U 2 ^_^

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

E- I got a clean version that I'm gonna CG ~!:

EE- I officially name it a boy!!!...after looking at it for 4 hours XD

Oh, I started the CG-ing:

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a94/19stinger91/Demoncopy.jpg

far from done.. But it's a nice start :)

guess I should make the schoes black 2? :think:

I don't like the stiffness of your drawing; it's like it's just paper... with lines... :\

Stinger
November 19th, 2005, 01:18 am
You mean I should be more 'flowing' with me lines?... and add some more movement in the character? I'm willing to change... but first I've got to know where you're talking about XD

RD

Well, I like your style. The hair is really prity. But I have a problem with all the clothes. You have to know where there will be wrinkles, how big they will be, if there will be any and the thickness of the clothes.

And I think Marlon is talking about the poses you put the people in. Its just all..stiff. You need to make some action poses. Some tips is to eye copy an action image from somthing (not trace!) and just draw it over and over and over. After a while you will notice you change the image to fit your personality.

There is a tutorial for inking your art in Macromedia Flash and another tutorial for cel shading in Photoshop which I found extremely helpful and I thought you might be interested in it seeing how that's what most of your art is about.

Awww...It's so kawaii!!!!


First of all, this is an English forum, so it's expected that if you can understand English reasonably well you can participate in discussions. This means you shouldn't be posting in German, Japanese, ig-pay atin-lay or any other non-english language. Secondly (and here's where we've been running into a problem) no one should be interjecting words for the sole purpose of having the word there.

This is just fine: "I polished my katanas last night."
This isn't: "My katanas are so kawaii!"

And you're not even a new member. T_T You're supposed to provide a translation...or face Angelic's Modly wrath. (Is it different when you're an admin...? Adminly wrath doesnt have that nice ring to it...:think: )

@ Sting::drool: I love your sigs. You're really getting good!


http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a94/19stinger91/59d248bb.png I tried to do something like that yesterday....Le's just say it didnt turn out as well XD. Good job.

The Green Lantern one's pretty cool. The font's kinda too normal for me, but that's my opinion. They're all great.

You've been getting better. ;)

you're pretty good at the CG stuff, but you could improve on your drawings a bit. Try copying some pics to get like different stances and angles and it'll make your drawings better.

Stinger
April 24th, 2006, 06:50 pm
pfff, hehe, drawing... how long ago would that be?

4 months, maybe 5 XD I kinda gave up. Also I found my place in D-art/ photoshopping instead of manga-drawing ^^ but thanx for the help anyways =D

also, marlon and septer: thanx for the compliments =)

Hmm... I think that you did a good job on the face, but yes, the body could use a bit of work... I would also work on doing a lot more cleanup on the pictures, especially before you CG them... outline in pen, and erase the pencil smudges... The CG is actually not bad, except for that...

And I agree with the creases in the clothes... the way it is... it makes it look like her clothes are puffy or inflated... What I do is study pictures, and look at myself, to see how clothes fall on the body...
