Postby T.abby » Thu Aug 02, 2012 4:18 am

First Oekaki drawing ever!

I posted this in intermediate because the description said "for people looking for criticism", and I think that's me...but I'm so new, and people seem to see intermediate as a place where only really good artists go. So now I'm not sure. :3 Please tell me if my picture is terribly and should be moved at once!

Well then. This is a picture of Cyan, a beautiful JBD I'm trying to win. He's designed by Berkshire, who did an absolutely fantastic job. Much thanks to her for making this picture possible, and giving me the opportunity to win this pretty boy! Species is by Hiccup.

First ever lineless drawing of any kind--how did I do? Please critique, and help me out!

Cheers ~

EDIT: Did a little fixing up, as much as time allows for right now. Now I should go *actually make a form* to try to win Cyan, something I have been too lazy to do up until this point...

A method for determining not who is right, but who is left.

My dreamie is the camo dog, my father is in the army and it would mean a lot to me to get it. I can't trade fairly quite yet, but I'll give you every single pet I own if that's enough.

I live with Flitter and use her computer pretty much exclusively, we may trade unfairly every now and then.

I'm trying to get JBD 54, super excited to start making a great form! Will pay for art or coding help, or offer it in return. :3

It is very nice, but the lines are not quite ready for intermediate. You have added allot of nice details. But I would stick with beginners for now. >.< Trying not to be mean. I like it though! :D

I enjoy aesthetics, horror movies/games, relaxing, alone time, wolves, art, my PS4, my lovely doggo Percy<3 and connecting with people! I am a good friend to good people simple. I have pretty bad social anxiety & I am a very isolated human being at times but I love to make new friends and chat:)

Wow! I'm glad you are open to critique! You seem to have worked hard on this, so since it's in intermediate, and you asked for it, here's some of my advice.

One of the things you could improve is to make the fur on the back of the neck furrier and fluffier. Maybe try brushing it with the smear (finger) tool.

I think you did a rather nice job on the background and the "feel" of the picture. Try to soften the edges of some of your objects though, as it can tend to look "cut-out-and-pasted-on".

Also, the rain. You have it going around the objects in the picture. Try making it run over the dragon, dripping not only across his top-line, but dripping across his side, the one that is facing us. Try making the rain varying sizes, to get a three dimensional feel. Closer ones are larger, farther is smaller. Make some of the raindrops falling in front of the dragon. In between us and him.

The lines aren't ready for intermediate? It's a lineless! There are no lines! -_-


I think it's very nice c: It's better than I could do.

Oh! Thank you so much, everyone! so glad Berkshire posted here...

@ Shira~ : Glad you're so confident you'll win. Wish I were that sure of myself! Good luck to you too. <3

@ Topaz and Resurrection: Thank you both so much. Happy you guys like it!

@ Berkshire: The rain was what I did last...my hand was cramping, so I think that was kind of a rush job. I also made the colors inside a sketch that I then took away, so I think that probably adds to the cut-and-paste effect.

List of things for Tabby to change:
Shape of horns
Jawline sharper
Smudge background/heart a little more
Different sized raindrops/raindrops over JBD
Backline of JBD smudged and made more furry

Cheers again!

We've got the fire, who's got the matches
Take a look around at the sea of masks
Come one, come all, welcome to the grand ball
Where the strong run for cover and the weak stand tall
I'm not one to scare the masses
But there's somethings that melt the plastic
Try and dig down deeper if you can
I'm not afraid, I'm not ashamed
I'm not to blame, welcome to the masquerade
I'm not ashamed, I'm not afraid
I'm not okay, welcome to the masquerade
Welcome to the masquerade
We've got the power, who's got the action
Break it down 'til there's nothing but a mere fraction
Out of the fire, rise from the ashes
Reject your doubt and release the passion
