redline :] based on this drawing by BlueKestrel
by Novie Kenari @ Sat Dec 03, 2011 5:56 pm [Reply]

The green is the finishing lines
red is the skelital structure (the basics)
and the black is your lines :3
(il explain the numbers xP)

1. try drawing a few wolf skulls, and try shaping it more to the head, they have a bit more distance. also, their eye always lines up with the nose, and the nost is complicated i kno XP it takes alot of practice to get it done right... same with chins. they are hard as well. (sometimes ears can be a pain)
2. try and even up your feet so they match on both sides, try and use a line as i did. your paw shape is good, i wouldent change that. same with your front leg anatomy, its beautiful ^^
also try and puff out the chest a little more, unlike cats k-9s actually have a chest, belive it or not xD
3. sometimes use a line on the back part of the feet to make sure they look even, if not it kinda make it look a bit funny.
4. Try and make your tail more rounded, and not stick out so much, they have more relaxed tails ^^

Overall, your anatomy was pretty good, but try studing anatomy a little more, and youl be a pro :] it takes a while, but once you get it down youl never half to draw a skeleton again. (but if somthing looks off, draw one ^^) also, try and practice with angles and such :]

~anyway, hope this helps!~

Just A Typical Cat Eye Any Tips

Dragon
by Midnight Dragon @ Sat Dec 03, 2011 1:55 pm [Reply]

This is my first comic, and it is called "Dragon".
It will be in all Japanese, and I will put translations down in here. ^^ It will be in English, way easier for me XD
This is the cover, and this my first attempt at an eye on here. I tried out dodge and burn, and made the background using paintbrush, and using Dodge, Burn, and Airbrush, I made the writing and the eye.

The comic is about a species called 形状シフター (pronounced kay-jo shee-foo-tah), which is a wolf that shape-shifts into what they call their "True Spirit". Their True Spirit could be any animal, and they usually are proud of it. They also always have a symbol thing on their left shoulder. They are almost always named after that symbol. (example: Storm has a lightning bolt on his shoulder.) Also, they only find their True Spirit in their dreams--they will dream about being one when they are around 2 years old.

Moon is the main charrie, and she is trying to figure out her True Spirit, desperately. Her only "friend", Star, only cares about herself, leaving Moon heartbroken, her only friend lost.

I'm gonna be working on the pages, and yeah, there is a prologue. I didn't make up the charries in the prologue, they from Japanese legends. So, I didn't make up Amaterasu and Yami. No prologue. It was too hard and whenever I went to a new tab it deleted all my work 0.0 I'll get started on the story part now!

I did use a ref for the eye, so here is the link: http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9 ... ST-zp6DUfz

Head.
by briannna27 @ Fri Aug 12, 2011 2:00 pm Attachment(s) [Reply]

My first Oekaki. I've known that I fail at art when its done on my PC ever since i first tried it. I can't do ears, bodies, clothes, etc. because they require free-handing. how is this head? Its based on my traditional drawing of a cat.

Do you have any tips (other than "get a tablet") to doing an oekaki?

If you'd like to add to it (a body, ears, clothes, etc) PM me or post below

23Inugami @ Fri Aug 12, 2011 2:38 pm

for oekaki try using the smoothing options if you mean your free-hand lined are wobbaly.

briannna27 @ Fri Aug 12, 2011 2:44 pm

XD I'll try. All mine are epic fails. ugh! Maybe your suggestion will work.

bellatrix743 @ Fri Aug 12, 2011 2:45 pm

Intro to Akiru... =3
by Akiru @ Sat Sep 03, 2011 7:50 am [Reply]

this is my OC Akiru. This is my first drawing using Oekaki and i didn't feel like putting any detail so it's just the bace colours of akiru and a sketchy linear. Akiru is a little nervous but says hi to everyone, and so do I... so there you go!! oh, and no ref's used. =3

EDIT: yay!! 4 likes?? for this?? O.o lol, maybe i'll draw Akiru embarassed next time because of the compliments... also edited the title, i forgot the 'r' in 'intro'... XD

I should let you know this only took me about 20 - 30 minutes, however i left it open when i called a friend, did the dishes and vacumed... =3

Skóll @ Sat Sep 03, 2011 7:50 am

Cute

AquaAngel @ Sat Sep 03, 2011 7:53 am

So adorable! Well done, I love your lines, and the pose is lovely!^-^

young blood. @ Sat Sep 03, 2011 7:55 am

This is your first time using oekaki? This is awesome! With shading and a background, this would be intermediate!

"redline" for -owl- based on this drawing by BlueKestrel
by Onyxeva @ Mon Nov 21, 2011 2:50 pm [Reply]

Here's a redline for -owl-. :3

Summary:


Not a lot of problems regarding the overall shape and anatomy. Your neck was a touch too long and the head might be a touch too small/body too big. xD

The back feet I think had the biggest issues, it was pushed forward too much and looked like it was gonna break. An easy way to fix this is to make sure your lines stay straight when working with that part of the leg. :3

On the front legs, there's those weird little arm pads at the wrist of the arm. The dew claw should be right around that area too.


Overall very nice and try using references to get the small details down and you'll be a wolf expert. xD

BlueKestrel @ Mon Nov 21, 2011 2:54 pm

wow this is amazing thanks so much :3

Onyxeva @ Mon Nov 21, 2011 3:17 pm

No problem, happy to help. <3

Lion Sunset
by Mmai @ Tue Nov 15, 2011 7:44 am [Reply]

In keeping with my Lion King inspired art, here's another pic. Not based on any scene from the movie, just a lion in front of a setting sun.

Done with my finger on my laptop pad so I yet again have a cramped finger.

I'm pretty happy with my second drawing, but comments and critique would be appreciated :3

Mmai @ Tue Nov 15, 2011 10:05 am

I added a tree, but I'm not sure if I like it or not. Opinions?

StrikingEmber36 @ Tue Nov 15, 2011 10:35 am

Wow thats all i can say

This maybe my last oekaki forever. So I figured I'd try something different. My cat keeps moving so it didn't turn out so good.
