quick doodle using drawr.net- great site for doodling, too bad it's Japanese and I can barely read it =)

...I really need to start a general art thread, I've got a ton of stuff sitting around here.

why oh why are you using so many straight lines? You're drawing people. There are very, very few straight lines on people. Or anything organic, really.

You also need to really focus on accuracy when you're copying things. Look at the plate from artistic anatomy again; is his thigh that short in the original? Is his stomach that big? You're focussing too much on lines I think, when you should be looking at overall form. Slow the hell down and look at shapes and how they relate to each other.

Dark Kamek: Your lines indicate either things:
1. You draw slowly
2. Or you draw fast
I think it's more one. Basically I think you should loosen up your strokes, don't hesitate to make big ones. As *Zeemort* Epistaxis pointed out, focus on the whole, you can tell from your strokes that you'rethinking small rather than big. Just like your strokes, you got to break down: start up big, end up small. You can always rub out the bigger strokes after.
That said, I quite like your style ;p

Dex: Very Dex-y!

Thanks Chris, I'd hope it looks like I made it since I wasn't aiming for any other style, heheh =)

Put links up because of their size. Done in Alchemy. About 30-45 mins for each. Great fun!

I'm using straight lines because I'm using a gamut. It's a fine art device, making it much simpler to paint the sketch when you transfer it to canvas, than it is to draw in curved lines. Also I draw pretty slowly, not really all that fast, so it's more like what Chris said, I draw to slowly. I do agree 100 percent on what you said with that plate from artistic anatomy, I don't know what I was thinking there.

Also Chris that first thing you just posted in the post above mine is quite rad.


RE: Doodle Thread. - Adam - 08-06-2009

Here's some quick sketches I did in MSpaint with no constraints at all. Didn't clean the lines up nor the shading; nothing. Just boredom, I guess.

I pretty much referenced my right hand, as I was drawing with my left! The face is unreferenced though, it needs shaping up and stuff.


RE: Doodle Thread. - Mabelma - 08-06-2009

I like how the shading looks even when it's not clean. Where's the colorful nose? Keep up the good work.


RE: Doodle Thread. - Marth - 08-06-2009

Hey hey, Zeemort I drew with curves, well curved my straight lines, even though this isn't finished finished. I'm happy with it for a quick Da Vinci study, but I know there is a bit I can fix.[Image: study.png]


RE: Doodle Thread. - Mabelma - 08-06-2009

Looks nice although the upper part of the body looks a little wrong but everything else looks ok to me(chest to thigh).


RE: Doodle Thread. - Chutzpar - 08-07-2009

Okay look
this right here is literally the least useful way to critique a drawing

"THIS IS WRONG" with no suggestion for why it's wrong or how to fix it. You might has well have just posted "lol this is kawaii ^^Sweatdrop".

Fuck it, I'm done.


RE: Doodle Thread. - Mabelma - 08-07-2009

Are you talking to me?? If so I'm sorry I meant that it is a bit fat on the left side of the body(middle of the chest).


RE: Doodle Thread. - Marth - 08-07-2009

Oh come on Zeemort you can't be done, your the only real reason why I post here, your the only one I've really seen give critique. And again sorry bout being a dick in Mabelma's topic. Dunno what was with me yesterday I was like a highstrung little kid with everything I did yesterday.


RE: Doodle Thread. - Chutzpar - 08-07-2009
