The Artist Army

[Calix]

The_Tide_Keeper, I'd be a bit more careful when redlining. I think the original sketch was more accurate than your redlines with both Soteria and Neelix's drawings..


Soteria- Both heads are a bit too big. The standing one's stomach/abdomen area is too small. For a more in-depth critique, Bel(or toki?) redlined well ^^


Neelix- As I said with Soteria, Bell/Toki has you covered with critiquing. But I like it, it's definitely an improvement from your earlier work ^^


✩★Raystar★✩- Try studying pictures of horses, especially their legs. Horses usually have prominent joints in their legs. I love how you've drawn the hooves, though ^^

A bit of an art dump here.
A commission for Briar Rose
My attempt to do mysticalpha's(on deviantart) style
A commission for Loka

Critique welcome on any of them ^^

[kivr & fireflii]

I really have to commission you sometime Calix *A*

// and yes this is Bel ^^

I would recommend maybe making the torsos a bit longer and a tad tad tiny bit skinner.
The curve ( towards the back leg) in the torso should be thicker, since the belly shape is like a "S" not a "C"

... I suck at explaining with words rofl


oh and also to the people I redlined for; my style is not realistic(or the style I used to redline) so you could make the head a tiny bigger and the body more thicker to make it more realistic.

Neelix; The back dips a little too much. c:
Raystar; Very good for a first try! :3 Iredlinedfor you. Do try to ignore the feathers, as I've never drawn a horse with feathering before. You may wish to get another opinion, though, as I'm not the best artist in the world.

As for my own work, I attempted to fix that drawing I was doing yesterday.

woah! Calix, you just get better and better! I remember ages and ages ago, when i first saw your art, its was beautiful! lovely but now... your borderlining TWG90 standard! How d'ya get so good?! how long have you had a tablet?

Lucifer- thats really good, try and round off the legs a little more.

This is my FIRST time drawing a horse (It's a unicorn, but close enough! )
im not sure if its good or not, i didnt even refrence anything, just from when i used to ride horses, but i think i got the generall body down. . . oh i dont know! Please critique.

I think it looks very nice! I would guess the anatomy could use some work, but I'm afraid I'm not much of an expert on that so I can't help much there. But maybe you could make the joints in the legs more defined. The way it looks now, the whole leg seems to be curving, rather than bending just at the joints. Also, maybe draw the front legs a little shorter and the body a little wider. But you do seem to have the basic shape down pretty good.



http://shadowolf0913.deviantart.com/ I was wondering if I could please get some critique on my artwork, specifically this one. It was my first time drawing a bird, so I'm sure there's a lot to improve. I'm not all that concerned with anatomy, since I'm not really going for a realistic look, but some general tips and advice would be greatly appreciated. If you could also take a quick look at some of my wolf drawings too, and maybe give me some critique on them, that would be great too. Again, not very worried about anatomy, just the overall quality and some basic things I could improve to make it look better. Thank you!

Pfft, you guys are all like barfing talent XD And Raystar, that was an AMAZING first try on a horse/unicorn. I love it :3


Does anybody have any tips on how to draw wolves from a front view? And cats from a side view? I can't seem to get either right >.<


EDIT: I now have a new pictures! I stared at my dog for an hour for this one >.< Critique? This is my first try at semi-realistic, like first try EVER

I think that the bird was amazing for a first try, but something that might help in the future is making the feathers on the wings smaller and more rounded toward the top, then have them get longer and a bit more pointy when you reach the bottom. And, even though you're not to concerned with anatomy, I would suggest looking at pics. of bird or bat wings so that you know where the wings bend. At least, that's what helped me when I was first learning how to do birds.

Hope that helped, =)

Tried redlining it for you: http://i49.tinypic.com/6j26at.png
I haven't drawn horses in a looong time though, so don't take it 100% ^^; But they used to be the only thing I drew, so I thought maybe I could help you out a little. Try to give the body some definition and shape; right now yours looks kind of floppy, like there's no bone/muscle underneath. Define the leg joints; horses have relatively skinny legs, and they bend at square angles, not round ones. I do suggest looking up some pictures of horses so you can get the general idea of their body structure and proportions (for example, horse legs are actually much skinnier than many people think). But good job on what you've got so far, and keep working

OK so, after playing wizard101 all day I was forced to get off, in boredom I started to doodle, I started doing dragon wings then I figured I would make an eagle with dragon wings instead of the narueal traditional eagoe wings. Then I figured that i would male it into a griffin and here w are any comments or critique?
