Public Boards/Intermediate

Yeah, well?

clover_pocky (Jan 21, 2008)

Yeah, alright. What's with my stuff being moved onto the beginner board? With all the anime and gaia shit that gets posted here? Apparently stuff I spend time and effort on isn't nearly good enough compared to the fucking fanart and furry scribbles - those seem to stick here. Feh, whatever. Fuck you guys, too. Do what you like, your site. Sorry about that. It's usually not my style to air grievances on a public forum, but what the hell.

Anyway, the real purpose of this drawing is to see if anything I've learned from figure drawing has caught over into the digital aspect of my artwork. (Amazing what two four hour classes can do, and this is just the beginning of the semester. I'm pretty excited about the whole deal, disgruntledness aside.) The teacher I have is pretty awesome, and gesture drawing has taught me a lot about human body positioning and flow of movement. I have class in three hours, I'm going to go take a nap now.

This is on intermediate, not beginner. ?..I dunno..to me it doesn't really matter a hoot what board something is on. A good drawing is as good on beginner as it is on advanced. I does seem odd that ones with effort put into them would be moved over all that shitty scribbling that gets posted, but maybe a mod was bored or something.

clover_pocky (Jan 21, 2008)

No, I understand that I posted on intermediate. It's kind of rare that I post on any other board. I had three or four pictures moved - one off of advanced, which is fine, and then a few off of this board, which I just don't get because of the crap that gets posted up here sometimes.

davincipoppalag (Jan 22, 2008)

Yea.. who knows why they leave the shit. But, again.. it really doesnt make a diff what board its on really, does it?

These pictures are so unique and creative!

forgotten-memory (Jan 21, 2008)

I love the colour scheme and your proficiency with solid colours!

clover_pocky (Jan 21, 2008)

Yes. I would fight someone for coffee. *nods* Especially in my 9:00am anthropology class. Such pretty colours. I love the definition of folds in the pants.

Oh goodness, yet another original character. Minus the Digimon in the corner. And yes, I'm one of those people that leave the computer for hours. But is that really a good excuse? No, not really.

I really think this would be more appropriately placed in the "Beginner" section, but as the canvas is too large, I cannot. D: My apologies, everyone.

This is really cute. :) It is obvious you put effort into this, - I don't really see it being a problem up here on this board. The people who do not belong on intermediate are the ones throwing out shitty anime drawings that took them 5 minutes. The colouring scheme is really very nice. I like the muted lavender in combination with the character's colours. However, I have some qualms with her anatomy - her feet should be as long as the space between her wrist and the crook (bend) of her elbow. Right now they're very tiny, and I'd be surprised if she could walk on them at all. :) Also, with the way the blue armband is arranged, her arm looks like it... o_o;; does something odd around her wrist. It doesn't stay straight. Sometimes (and I always try to do this when I'm thinking) - it helps to draw the figure, then the clothing, which I see you sort of did, but remember that the human body has definition as a collection of shapes. You achieved that really well on the belt, but it feels like you got a little bored on the smaller details.

I personally would like to see more definition of lineart and dynamic contrast in the shading, but trust me, that's something everyone's working on, so you're off to a good start. :)

Ruthallia (Jan 26, 2008)

Thank you so much for the detailed crit <3 It really does help.

I didn't notice the other issues until you stated them, except for the feet (I noticed, but admittedly got lazy D: ). The next time I draw Kimi, and while drawing in general, I'll be sure to keep everything you've said in mind.

Thanks ~! <3

clover_pocky (Jan 20, 2008)

You're doing pretty good with these for no refs.

lori (Jan 20, 2008)

yeah I think so too, I certainly can't draw faces this well without a ref. They all come out looking like losers

clover_pocky (Jan 20, 2008)

Hee, I like this character of yours. His nose is rather long, but for some reason it fits him nicely. Hooray for blue tattoos. :D

Allicit... again?

clover_pocky (Jan 19, 2008)

This is Allicit, again.

What an interesting character.

penpen (Jan 20, 2008)

I like how her eyes are different colors, and her hair is sweet :D

Wraith (Jan 20, 2008)

Awesome character! She looks pretty even bald.

clover_pocky (Jan 20, 2008)

Thanks. :) That's actually not a fashion statement, she's that way for a reason - however, you'll have to read the book she's in to find out why.

Avatar art for gaiaonline. I can't believe I spent this much time on a freebie. :/

I can't really think of a background idea, anyone have any recommendations?

Soooooo gewd.

clover_pocky (Jan 19, 2008)

Before you add a background, I'd recommend improving the quality of your lineart, finding a definite source of light for your shading and adding detail to the piece as a whole. It's a cute concept, but the colouring seems sloppy. Even if something is free, you should ensure that whoever gets the image gets something of quality. Just my two cents.

arghgh i don't know

pokey (Jan 19, 2008)

no refs!

i was working on something exactly like this on opencanvas, but i kind of broke it... i'm frustrated cos' i don't wanna buy OC and it's the easiest thing to use for me. so i go here, and finish what i wanted to friggin' draw... whoopee!

i'll fix this a bit later on if i feel like it (construction/shading errors) and uhhh, i hope y'all like this. it's 6 AM and i have to sleeeeeeep and i'm going crazyyy saflskfg.

I like it. I think it came out great, looks real without a ref. can't beat that

davincipoppalag (Jan 19, 2008)

This is really good for no ref

clover_pocky (Jan 19, 2008)

Good contrast, I love the bright blue on the grey. :)
