Alright, I'm just curious if any of you can tell me if things are improving in my art. I've just started Digital art, and these are my 3rd and 4th pieces I've tried doing.

the first one is Scorpio. This was my 3rd piece I've done. I want you to compare it to my fourth piece please. The 4th piece is Libra.

Very cute with nice colours. :3

There's definitely improvement from 3 to 4, as your choice of shading has gotten better.

The thing with shading-- especially digitally-- is that you do NOT want to just use black, or just use a darker version of the colour you're using to shade with.
Like, for example with the first one--
The skin looks a bit dirty, because I'm guessing you selected a colour below the one you chose-- just a different shade of a tan. But, especially with skin, picking just a darker version of the colour can mess with things. Sometimes this works, but often it doesn't.
A good thing to do is pick ONE colour to shade with, or perhaps two. Usually a deep, red-brown, or a sort of blue. It depends on the setting. Blue = cooler. Red-brown = warm.

Then what you can do is shade over your colours with, let's say the red. You can lower the opacity of the shade layer to any quality you want. You can also play with selecting different kinds of reds-- lighter red for the skin, and darker red-brown for the clothes.
Not using black makes things look more natural, and lets the colours just overall blend better. Just practice around and play with different things. x)

I can't give redlines atm but I recommend doing something with the hands. No one really does that with their arms, lol. x3

on the contrary, Moon, I do believe that is a 'naga' that you have here at the moment (Half snake half human). a gorgon will have snake hair, bat wings, gargoyle feet and thick dragon tails that prevent flying. Ill red line in a moment for you, though, just need to boot up photoshop and plug in the tablet.



here we go. Just remember when drawing snakes, where they're pressed to the ground they're flat, but the top will always be rounded or round with a slight spinal ridge.they're also mostly the same size the whole way down, unless theyve eaten recently, or it's the tail end or the head. You also want to make sure the character is always well balanced, since they dont have two or more legs to counterbalance. don't try to rise them too far from the ground plane unless it's for a very short time or they have something to hold onto that will help balance.

I must agree with you about it being a naga(I'm a big mythology fanatic and know a little about them) but in a game I've played they pictured the naga with six arms so I do suppose it is just a way of how the artist pictures it.

Arigatou, senpai!!!
(Sorry I just finished watching an episode of Angel Beats X3)
I will adjust my charrie :3 :3 :3
The only thing I have to say is that I actually want her to be pretty darn feminine, so she snake body might be thinner and towards the top I'll probably make it smaller, but thank you!!
And I agree with the Naga thing, I just based it off of the Gorgons on God of War cause those are ridiculously cool X3
