But I need help badly
Give me the hardest Crit you have. I wanna inprove. Redlines? Yes please.


Alright~Here's about as harsh as I can go.
(No redline tonight, sorry folks.)

The wings, where that first little, uhh, digit sticks out from the back of the wing, that should be sharper, or have a claw, or something. Your wings are demon wings, so they should be sharp or have a claw sticking off.
Frankly, the paws just looks awkward. It's kind of, erm, scribbly, so it's hard to tell what digits are what. Plus I think you were going for Lion King paws, which are incorrect enough as it is.
Tails~ The bottom one looked good, but I felt like the top one should have been puffier.

The winged full body pose~
The eye is to slanted and to close to the edge of the face.
The muzzle is a tad to long.
The tail ends unatually, so unless your wolf has some sort of freaky popped up back behind those wings, it shouldn't end like that. The bottom of the tail shouldn't curve into the leg, what so ever. I don't know how well this picture works, but typing in the words 'Wolf Butt' into Goggle Images isn't the best idea in the word. XP But you see what I mean, right?

Wingless full body pose minus the paws~
Watch that tail, dude.
The front leg in the back looks pretty big in comparison to the first one, the first leg in the front has an odd elbow thing going on. You made a small indent on the belly line and that shouldn't be there.
You're back back leg seems to be lacking shape. Kind of just looks like you just drew two lines. That is a no-no, even for sketches.

It looks pretty good though!! I can't sketch though, my sketches look like crap XP

This is the first time i've drawn any of these. I've done horses before, but never with that much detail...
The first is a 'Fairy', and the other is another mythical creature called a 'Nightmare'.
They were all done using a tutorial book i got for christmas(but i kinda skipped out on the shading for them)
What do you guys think of these?(NO red-lines please)

EDIT: Oh! and i know the face on the fairy is sorta messed up. I stink at drawing humanoid things!


And this, i just did it yesterday(i think)
Image

(sorry they're so light, i used the scanner, but my sketch book is a little too long, so i blame it on that lolz)


Griffon~ Looks great!! The neck and head seem to be a little to straight though, I'd recommend having the neck go straight then bring his head down. Kind of like a horses. Does that make any sense?
Your front legs/claws seem to be awfully thin. Eagles still have meat on those X3
His feathers are also oddly angled in some places, it almost looks like he's molting, though I can't draw feather to save my life XP

Your fire horse looks beautiful, first off. I love the bone tail, that's just cool!!
However, the ears are a little to long.
You also did something with the front front leg, the one that's up. It seems you added a very faint line between the chest and the joint right there, I would recommend making that line halfway between that first line and the darker leg line. Make sense?

Your normal horse is also gorgeous, but I feel like the cheek dips a little.

Don't get me wrong, you're a wonderful artist!!I definatley suck in comparison to you -_-

The lines aren't mine, of course. I colored in my character Nicolette in her two outfits, her Army training and just casual. Any critique on character design and how I should shade?

... Why don't you shade like you normally shade and then post that? Yeah I don't know there are so many ways to shade, just do what you do and then get tips on how to improve lol that's all I have to say. Looks good. p: do you plan on personalizing her more if possible? Just wondering.

@Alexander Did they commission you to do it on a transparent background? The art looks amazing but I think the BG, or lack there of, takes away from it. My personal opinion, of course. Even slapping it on a solid colour or whatever you like to do, as simple as possible, would make it better to stare at then transparency.

Hello everyone! I am back for the summer since I have nothing to do over the span of my two month summer vacation!
I am searching for some semi-lit roleplays to take part in to keep me amused over the time. I won't be on every single waking moment although (like I used to) because I do have a little bit of a social life this summer (surprise, surprise!).

Note; This is my first time drawing a background fully and completely, and actually liking it.

Ohh, those images are very nice, BK! : O

But, I must say, the image itself looks a bit too... clustered. Especially with that howling image thrown in.
The images themselves look like they'd be stronger separately, rather than jostled all onto the same canvas.
The opacity through the two on the right also seems a bit too forced, and your eye gets drawn more to the background, rather than the actual subject.
The subjects also seem to be done in completely different styles-- excluding the two wolves on the right-- which also creates a choppy feeling to it. The two on the right could probably still look very nice together, and create nice imagery, but the third, howling, seems a bit much.

But, separately, very nice job! C:

Susiron; Thanks for your help, I agree I think that's what bothers me about it- the clustered feel. Origionally this was just meant to be the head with the detailed fur but then I went ahead and embellished it; maybe too much ^^;;
The two big images were set at full opacity but that made way too much white and took away from the background- plus it was weird with a huge wolf head and pup floating in the foreground. I think I may take out the two big guys and see how it looks with just the howling wolf.
Again thanks for the help ^^ I appreciate it

@ asaki, Its a very nice drawing but I think you could maybe work on the back legs alitte? because it dosnt really look like its there..or its a grey/white spot. And I would have to say work on making a difference between the two front paws..they look like they are one
