Kiku
by Leaflet @ Wed Aug 11, 2010 7:24 pm [Reply]

Alright, first time tring to draw this character as a wolf, her name is Kiku. I also did this 'cause I haven't drawn a good wolf in over two months :lol: Please don't pay attention to the weird background, I was going to do a sorrowful snowy forest, but that didn't turn out too well, so she gets some blue boxes. :lol:

I tried a diferent style when shadding, so I'd like some comments on that please! And any and all comments and all critasizim is welcome, help me out by telling what I could do better!

And don't listen to the timer! It tells lies!

Kiku(c) me and `~AubreeHeights~`

Gray Wolf
by Kenjja @ Thu Aug 12, 2010 4:49 pm [Reply]

I like it, and I was experimenting with "how do you shade". (I can not shade.) And I found out, that well... My shading is FAIL. x.x

If you overlook that I didn't shade, I think it's pretty good, considering it's only my 5th drawing on here. ^^

I know the background is crappy. I also found out that I fail at backgrounds. x.x

Comments/crits welcome, and I think that the timer is off by 10 minutes. ^^

It's looking good! Keep practicing! ^-^ You've got the hind legs pretty good! the best way I find to learn how to get anaomy is just to study your real pets (if you have any) and just do what's called Gesture drawings. A Gesture drawing is just a very quick like 1 min drawing of the "pose" of the thing you are trying to draw. It's very quick and though it may seem silly (and a bit odd looking) at first it does help! I promise! 8D

Here is a good example a cat gesture drawing!
See how scribbly that is? It's just very quick and it's just the very basic shapes of the animal. like I said it seems silly but amazingly it does help you learn anatomy really well with lots of practice.

WazzinGator @ Thu Aug 12, 2010 4:00 pm

Yahh Ive done that before but ... it looks more like a lamp than a cat most of the time! I did take pics of a stray cat that lurks around my house (cant bring him inside; but I might get a kitten...http://www.chickensmoothie.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=235696) and drew adoptables. My ma only lets me on 3 days a week for games and such so I haven't ... eh.... well drawn any adoptables yet BBBUUUUTTTT its beter than this. :) Thanks for your help anyway. I should have seen this before I drew the pets, but I do love them! http://www.chickensmoothie.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=233765&p=5966967&hilit=WazzinGator#p5966967

Frog Eating Flys
by funfunfun99 @ Thu Aug 12, 2010 3:53 pm [Reply]

Hi everyone! This is my Frog Eating Flys. I hope you all like it because I probably at least tried to draw it for 45 minutes on this computer. My other drawings are the Harts Lions picture and some watercolor grapes. If you never saw them thats ok because I don't even know if anyone has commented it. If they did I would love to to tell them thanks, but I don't know what page number I am on. Well, I might draw again soon, but until then BYE BYE!b :)

Hope you like her!

I. Hate. Owls.
by meerkatgirl @ Wed Aug 11, 2010 8:55 am [Reply]

I do. Someone (can't remember the username :p) ordered an owl ref sheet. After ages of looked for a reference for the reference picture I'm supposed to be drawing, I finally drew this, only to realize if this is going to work, I either have to draw the second owl (back) with it's wings folded (against the person's request), or find a way to shrink the owl. Like I said, I hate owls :evil:. Oh, and I never did find a good reference on google.

AtomicMilkshake @ Wed Aug 11, 2010 8:58 am

That's just adorable! <3

meerkatgirl @ Wed Aug 11, 2010 9:23 am

really?! I think it looks terrible. I can't get the bottom or head to look right, especially with this pose.

AtomicMilkshake @ Wed Aug 11, 2010 9:52 am

noooooo I think it's awesome! You ogt the proportions right to me!!

Art Trade with Flameripple
by Blockbeap @ Sat Aug 07, 2010 3:08 pm [Reply]

Ok so I did an art trade with Flameripple and I hope you like it Flame! I tried my best. :D :) :D :) :D :) By the way that thing at the end of the stick is an antler because once in a discovery channel thing I saw that the early human species used them on their spears instead of stone so I thought it was a nice touch. Soooo hope you like it Flame! :D :)


Comments appreciated!!!!!!!!!! :D :D

Flameripple @ Sun Aug 08, 2010 8:36 am

Luminescence
by wingchimes @ Sat Aug 07, 2010 12:18 am [Reply]

Wondering whether this should go into Sketches & Experiments instead...
But it seems more like a sketch that went waaaay out of hand. Meaning it's not really a sketch anymore.
Man, this was fun!

AtomicMilkshake @ Sat Aug 07, 2010 12:21 am

HOLY MOLEY!! do you take art requests??
