Please be considerate with nudity.
Sererena (edited Jun 25, 2003)
I know most people probably don't care about seeing nudity and such, but there are some people who will actually go out of their way to avoid seeing it. I liked it here because of the fact that there were warnings on the pictures of 18+, so I was confident I wouldn't have to see nudity, but I still see it. This is the reason I left oekaki central, and I thought it would be different here. So, please, if there is any kind of nudity, even if it's just breasts, please rate it 18+, since most mov...

Okie. This is what I do.
1)Select a base color at 245 Opacity WC
2)Spead color aroun area, filling in solid.
3)Add in a dark color, one that is significantly darker
4)Add in the light shade, significantly lighter
5) Add in sperate strands at a 1pt 240 opacity lines, with the dark and light strands,
6)Useing 30pt low 1 Opacity, I spread it over the areas needed with white or black

I can give C&C if you want it. It's a nice picture, but a few things bug me, and they aren't that hard to fix ^_^

She's skinny.. O_o Either that or her arms are huge...

I know what you mean about hands, I can't draw them eather. -_-;;
I did find a site with a really good tutorial on it for drawing hands but I can't remember the address. I did have it on favourites but that pc is currently in bits all over my bedroom floor. -_-;;
Tell ya what, when I can get to it, I'll send you the addy. ^_^

Hey, that's not very nice! It's only his second picture. :( MattyP, it's not perfect, and a lot of TGgold's points are valid, but I have seen much, much worse. Anyway, I know you'll get better if you keep practicing. Keep trying!
concannon (edited Jun 18, 2003)
I think it's fairly good...don't mind TGgold. It could stand improvement, but improvement takes practice, so just keep it up.
TGgold (edited Jun 18, 2003)
No, please do mind me. I know that people are trying to keep you from being discouraged, but I've been hanging around oekaki boards for quite some time, and I mod one myself. You have to be blunt with beginners, or else they'll draw many pictures of the same poor qualoity, and not strive to improve enough. At least if people tell the truth then they know what the heck to work on and that people pay attention to what they're doing. Believe me, I can barely C&C this picture because there was not enough atempted for me to comment on. There could have been shading, more details, clothing folds, ect. I don't care if they are terrible, but if they're attempted I know the person is trying.
Reasons why I stay in practice boards is to
A) Help those who accept help
B) See people reactions and observe growth over time. It helps me develop my own style if i track someone long enough.

I DO NOT come to boards to see people ask for crit and then become offended when they get the truth from me. I DO NOT come to boards to be yelled at for telling the truth.

Oh yes, while this is his second picture, you must see, it is visible that there are many flaws with the picture...very easy to see. The artist could at least attempt to change his mistakes to a satisfactory level. And there is a print screen button, it allows you to save an image on your screen, so you don't need to post every image, especially lowpar ones. They take up room.

So, if you don't want my opinon of something, don't ask. I'm not as comforting and decieving as the other members.

TGgold: Though you have good points, after watching the animation, I have reason to believe most of the 'mistakes' you refer to are actually intentional and part of the style the artist was attempting to achieve. Rather, the mistakes don't detract from the image, and fixing them wouldn't improve the image (and quite possibly hurt it).

In a sense, I'd say this drawing is more successful than most, because it took a limited set of tools and came up with a visually pleasing piece. If you look at the animation you'll notice the artist recolored and resketched the piece more than once. One thing this image has that most don't is a sense of style.

Whether or not any of that was intentional, I can't say, but rather than point out 'mistakes' which are more accurately stylistic choices, it might be better to look at what parts are unfitting for the particular image's overall effect. In this case, the moon is probably the weakest part, it is too precise and lacks the same sense of distinguishment from the rest of the piece. maybe if it were hand drawn, and perhaps if it had an outline, it would have a better effect, but I can't say for sure.

Now of course, if you made 5 pictures that were basically the same as this, then I'd consider it spam, but there's probably worse stuff to critique than this.

And TCgold, I don't mean to insult your critique, and I completely agree with how spineless most people are on boards like this, and can't take any critisism. It just seems out of place in this picture.

Hey, that's really cute...
'MSE' looks almost annoyed, I agree...
But maybe next time they'll be all cheery and happy and stuff! Yeah!
I really like your works, Hakkai... They're so... Unique, and refreshing.
Not to mention that Shounen-Ai is a perfect addition to ANY oekaki board. Now for the low low price of... Oh, I'm getting carried away...
Anyhow... Great work, once more, Hakkai...
TGgold (edited Jun 18, 2003)
VisceralVamp, this is shounan-ai.....Yaoi is the more steamy hot loveness. Anywho, I like this style a lot. It's very nice to look at ^_^
