Fail Job.

Postby ButterflyChaser » Wed Jul 27, 2011 4:20 am

My character without his skull and mask. His attitude is showing.

Anyways I fail. I fail at drawing wolves. I can't draw one to save my life. You know what is frustrating? I tried to post something asking for help and constructive critiques and no one answers. I feel like I am treading water and drowning whenever I try to draw something. It is so upsetting. I get depressed. I start crying. Then I can't stop crying. That's why I don't draw. I ate some breakfast. Feel better. I should never post when I am starving. (Maybe I should take a break when drawing and remember to eat...or sleep...too, that may help.) Also I should know better than to be up drawing or posting around 4:00 am in my time. (that was when I posted the first version of this sketch.)

Edited:
Things I like:
Shading and rendering overall, especially in the face area. This I believe is one of my best attempts. This is also perhaps the first or one of the first pieces I actually got a light source worked out. Details. I am good at getting details.

Things I'm hoping for advice on how to improve:
Eye area - making the eyes look less crooked
Leg area: making the shoulders and hind quarters make sense
Neck area: something is off about the chest. I got lazy or just bored and it doesn't feel quite the same as the head.

No one? :( Should I just give up? I'll take the silence as yes for an answer.

Don't give up! Your art is amazing :3 Everyone is their own worst critic. You understand the shading, lines, softness, lighting, everything. Keep it up <3

NO! Never quit! That's alot better than some Intermediate drawings, and I'm not one to just say things to make people feel better. I say things when I mean them, and this is gorgeous ;)

Thanks. I feel like it is one of my better pieces, but there is something off, something missing. The area that bothers me the most is the character's left eye and cheek area. The cheek is crooked. I have that issue with all of my drawings. I want to know how to align the eye and cheek area with both eyes so the face works with the snout and not lopsided.

This is a wonderful piece of art in my opinion. :3

As long as you believe in yourself and think that it's amazing, nobody else's opinions matter.
If you bash yourself, you won't feel good. So think optimistic. Think to yourself.

Okay I took your advice and edited the first post on a list of things I like and don't like.
