sorry first time editing an image in flash... weird huh
Heil to mario.

Poorly drawn and in horrible taste, Hitler also stops being funny when they are 12 for most people, get with the times, it looks like he is dead with no eyes, and it looks like he is covered in oil, I assume it's shading, but to me, it's oil.

God this took forever, but I'm finally done. Spent a good 4 hours each day over the past 3 days working on this.
For C.O.W. 75
Adenoid Wolf, it's large body and stubby legs make it not the fastest but its sturdy and won't go down easy, it uses its jaws to dig wholes in the ground and sleep or wait in them, the smaller, more cuddly looking ones, draw unsuspecting travelers onto the hiding wolf's back, and surprise!

And a special thanks to J-qb for sending me some awesome brushes.
Once again, I am not a skilled painter, and I hardly consider myself any kind of painter, but I'm sure as hell proud of what's below this text and my sig.

higher quality here not sure if I need to post that, but I will anyway.

I'v tried making my own brushes, but they always come out as nasty blobs that look nothing like fur, I would really appreciate you sending me those, thanks a ton for offering.

Although your thoughts are in the right place, more should take that same state of mind. Unfortunately this isn't a utopia, there will always be people who try to start fights, who have fairly large egos, or just general idiots, (I'm not making fun of you giraffe, I'm saying in general, but you kinda have an ego) and there will always be people to shoot them down. And on the side lines there will always be those who thinks it's dumb as hell, but have no power over it.

On the other hand, this is also pretty self inflicted with giraffes many threads of doodles and belittling of other artists, not getting the best reputation.

More Wip for my entry into COW75 matriarch. Pretty much done with the actual creatures, just need to add background/foreground and a few touch ups. I still suck at painting fur, but this is much better, and more fluffy looking than previous attempts. Thoughts so far?

What Lundsfryd said, also, when you are done don't forget, no backgrounds.

Well I gotta say, this script with some extensions and a little bit more of a back story would make a half decent B movie, and before you take this the wrong way, compared to some of the stuff I'v read/seen, that isn't bad.

Very yes, listen to this, I used to try so many "styles" I went through almost a style a week, finding some new way to draw things when I realized that's what I should be doing, not trying to stick to one. My work was horrid looking back on my old stuff, now I have a semi realistic comicy thing going on, but I'm sure that'll change sooner or later.

by the way,i would mainly like some advice on how to improve my art,but i also like some opinions on my art style.

You don't seem to have any solid foundation of how your characters look, and what I mean by that is that you'll draw the same character, except his eyes or nose will be in a different spot, kinda miner but still, on the bodies, it just seems like there no structure, you just put them there.
I send people to this a lot best tutorials I'v ever used, because they can work for whatever you want to do.

I'd say you could put your own twist on the characters, assuming you will still be able to tell what the characters are after the change, I'm guessing this is okay mostly from JKA's Yoshi, it's dramatically changed but you can still tell it's Yoshi.

Nothing in this picture is consistant, the line work goes from thick to thin and random places.

I'm gonna guess you are using flash which brings me to the next thing, the coloring, with flash there is an option to stay inside the color you are painting, which would fix the eye problem. You could have easily avoided that otherwise, I don't actually see how you would make such a blatant mistake and than just leave it there, especially when you ask people to judge it.

The shading is simple, but the colors are random, over the left eye there is little line of odd color, and on the other eye, it looks like a patch with an eye hole in it, and there isn't a direct source of lite, it looks like that it is coming from above, from the hair, than its coming from the left as you go down the face, with no shading on the nose, it looks flat, like it's tattooed on.

I'm pretty sure you are the man, I actually read that long story, which is something I wouldn't normally do, so props to you.

Little update on here, it's been a few days
Sketch so far of my entry into COW75, gonna take a crack at painting this and hope it doesn't turn out too bad

I'm sorry but if ZOMBIES wasn't on there or in the thread name, I would never have known.
I gotta agree with MemB on this, this isn't making me wanna stick around and read more. It's a stick with a ball on it, and scribbles.

I always think Fonzy when I see zombehs, zombEhs

Just my 2 cents in here, but 15 minutes, is not a reasonable time for a good picture, I spend maybe 10-15 minutes on just the sketch for most of my work, the actual line work/color/shading, depending on how much detail I'm going for, usually takes me an hour to 2 or even 3 (once again depending on detail)

What's all this than?
I'm gonna take a swing at this and guess it says "Can I make a drawing of my fanfic pikamario?"
And, I don't know, depending on whether or not it's just a pikachu with a mario hat(which I would say is acceptable) or some sort of fusion, because technically that would be a character you made up, and not an original nintendo character, but it's not up to me.

why do people say mai over my, its more letters, most people try to shorten they're typing

I don't know much about game but I think the programming forum would probably be able to help you out more.

Why is it that it seems no one is using the oval tool to draw these guys' heads?

I'll have my level 5 picture up some time tomorrow.

My entry, its one of the little lantern guys from Yoshi's Island.
I'll PM you the FLA for it.
Question, can we add any animation to the submissions? Or just still images, this would look kinda nice with a glowing lantern.

Ohhhh god, if only I had though of that. If I find the picture I'll definitely edit it.

Still more.
First still life of the year

see what I did there?

More stuff from school
This was the first assignment to see how familiar we were with drawing from shapes and shading.

More prints using cutout paper to block the ink, the shape was a Mario sprite

Some monoprints I did in my art class, ink with pastels for a finish. The one on the left was destroyed because we were using a wet paper technique, and I messed around with it to turn it into a kind of Irish flag, the one on the right is the Chinese symbol for monkey, my scanner doesn't do it justice, it has this cool almost 3d looking affect.
