you can see others in the gallery :)

he looks like a fag.

pretty good, but don't put all the rainbow colors on a character, cause well.....he does look like a fag lol.

Yeah man, too many colours. looks unappealing.

yeah i guess i made him candy man instead of dark lord by over using some colours

anyways did anyone of you see the other drawings in the gallery?

This.

This man got it. Not just because of the many colours, it just looks plain unappealing.
Also, get some better lines please. This doesn't even looks like it's finished.

to add onto my previous statement. He's even got fucking nipple rings. are you TRYING to make him look like a fag?

no no no he is not a whatever you call him and those arnt nipple rings hes wearing an armor with a bunch of accesories

and to leo:to tell you the truth you totally hurted my feelings when you said my art wasnt appealing or whatever,you could've just said something like "its nice but you need to trace the lines"or something like that so don't worry i'll fix the lines Okay :)

I was talking about just what you posted.
Not all your other stuff.

i know thats what i was talking about

Leo c'mon dude, you're a pro, a goddamn pro. Throw all your heavy mighty critic power on this. I just can say: Keep a color control, don't expand the colors everywhere without a control, if he's supposed to be a devil, then less. Keep a control in your dimensions, because there are things you make smaller than the others, in relation to the whole body, like the arms are way bigger than everything else. Keep a control on the shadows, don't make those gradient look circles on his body, make the contour, remark where is the light source. Keep the strokes inside the drawing, and be careful how do you do them, it looks even gross if you just throw them lines in there, like on those spikes on their shoulders, you put a bunch of lines when all you had to do was to shade. That's pretty much I can say. I'm not an artist however those are things that everyone can see wrong. Leo and Knux are the artists around here, but since Knux is absent since a long time then just Leo. Like he says (Leo), just keep practicing, keep drawing. Don't let the comments take you down, take it as criticism and bring it up way stronger.

^ looks whose back and stuff

I want leo to see this

Hmmmm.
The shading is kind of flat. Don't follow the contours of the shapes, try to think of them as real forms. And forms don't have shadows based only on their contours.
The drawing alone is kind of nice, the best one (for me anyway) is Emily's dark side.
The hands on Emily are the best things on her along with her arms, and I didn't like the face that much. She seems a bit too skinny, no?

As for the shadow ninja thing, his hat seems a bit flat, his hand is a bit too even and straight, our fingers are always spaced along a curved line, not a straight one. The lines on his torso don't follow the bigger forms of his torso and the shading just really doesn't help since it's based only on contours. I'd also use some less saturated colors on here, over-saturated colors are bad to the eyes.

That's all I can think of to say. So yeah, in short, make stuff more solid looking, work on your shading since it cannot be based on the outlines only and desaturate the colors. It hurts, seriously.

ok thanks for the advice leo :)

WTF.... i actually liked this 1 O.o

thank you blackleafe

I like this one as well.

But first of all, her ear is placed too high. The bottom of the ear should be more or less aligned with the bottom of the nose. The shadow and highlights are good now, you're paying more attention to the forms overall but on her dress, the darker spots on it are random, they look like someone went and scribbled a bit on her dress.

The forearm seems longer than the arm and the overlap is wrong aswell. The forearm should be overlapping the arm, not the opposite.
And lastly, her fingers shouldn't bend crazily like that, she has joints. Unless she was deliberately designed to have bendy fingers like that.

Still, I like this piece.

hmm i guess your right i was supposed to put the ear lower right where the nose is and the other stuff but about the fingers i dont really get whats wrong but shes holding a glass of wine with her thumb and index finger if you didnt saw that

The fingers look like rubberhose tubes. They should have joints.

oh damn i guess i'll never use the path smoother or whatever its called
