Garnet (Jul 11, 2006)
Haven't drawn in a while and I plan on doing it seriously tomorrow, so I must warm-up! Jeez, feels like it's been ages...

Also, if you would, I need critique badly. I've never done perspective before, and I'd really like to get better at it. Thanks for the help! :D

well yeah, that and the flat looking body, the giant neck, and the large forearm. Where the legs are now make it seem as if the upper leg is much too short, and the lower is much too long.
Garnet (edited Jul 14, 2006)
Yes, with that I agree... both the legs are off in terms of what the human body is capable of... There's no way to bend them like that, or for them to be that high... OK, thanks a lot, Gigandas! I really appreciate it! n____n

Ah, the neck, I didn't even notice! T__T Thanks, though!

But how do you suggest on changing it hide, that's what she's asking.

For me it's the arm. I assume it's pushed behind her? Though it would be smaller to show distance it's far too small. It needs beefing up. From the shoulder to her elbow to her wrist. It would taper as it gets farther back but the way it is now it seems too... sticklike. Especially in comparison to the rest of her body. Thicken it up a bit (including her hand,) and I think it'll be alright.

As for her legs both fore legs need to be lowered. As it is now the thighs would only be half as long then they normally would be. If we saw her knee it would be near the blue of the Description strip window. We'd only see a bit of her left leg. We would see the whole of her right leg. It needs to be shortened, only half the calf showing, in the perspective her right boot would look shorter than her right because of the angle.

And as for her chest, even flat chested there would be a suggestion of form by way of the shoulder, curving out to where the chest is, then of course curving to the stomache. (I hope that makes sense.) Best ref's to use I think are cliff jumpers or sky divers. They come closest to bending like this.

I hope you take it as suggestions. Overall it's a great composition and you'll know what to do on your next piece. In art it's an ever growing process of learning and bettering yourself.

Just don't change the colors. They're like a wonderful eye candy. *<>*

That's so pretty... You did really well on this... I love it.
hideyourface (Nov 7, 2005)
the arm gets way too thin where it should be thicker at the top. Other than that it looks awesome.

This is a very lovely image. The choice in colors is very nice.
taori (Jun 1, 2005)
ha! i love it when people can do lineart like that, with the really thin pencil and whatnot, and make it look right. i sure can't. but it's fun as hell to look at.

i love Miyavi. ^.^ Though his eyes are definitely a bit bigger and innocent looking in the picture, but it's still very good. I like it.
