About the hair how do you think I should do the hair?
and about the lips do you mean they dont suit the character or they dont blend in well??

Try to make the hair a little more vague and 'soft', if you can. That, in combination with shadows and highlights will make it look less 'fake'.
I meant the lips don't blend in very well :) Lips are hard to draw as is, these ones are very flashy in colour and most people tend to overaccentuate the edges, or stick them on the face without any more surrounding.. facebulges. Oh cjhgqvqq I'm having a bad day language-wise, I hope you understand what I mean.

Hey, gimme a break, I'm one of the least likely people to actually wear heels.

And because my shamelessness knows NO BOUNDS
art portal.

LegolaSS pretty much said it.
The face is so 'smooth' and flat that everything has a 'stuck on' feel to it. Like it isn't incorporated into the body, but more like a plastic dollhead with stickers on it, especially around the eyes. Also, a lot of work must have crept into the hair, but I personally dislike hair with almost every strand detailed. It gives a plasticine-y feel. Just as the face, it would work better with stronger shadows and highlights.
That said, even though the lips don't particularly work in this drawing, they're nicely drawn.

On a brighter note, i love logging in to see a new comic by yourself, the "realistic" views and comics you do are wonderful and the art is smack on the target!... wouldn't want you to stop any time soon :3

Aw hey, thanks! Don't worry, quitting the comic isn't on my schedule ^^ Though truthfully, I'm a little surprised the thing does so well. It seems to resonate with more people than I expected. Which is pretty awesome, and certainly another incentive to keep going.

New comic ahead: No Sighing Tonight. It's a little sad.
I kinda want to put this one in the art portal too, but I feel like I'm overdoing it a little.
Maybe.

Anyway, I'm happy with how it turned out.

And kinda liked her, so I gave her some colour!
How very un-Gothy.

I drew a Goth!

A friend of mine is an intern history teacher who convinced her school to lighten up the history classroom a little.. with art!
Even better, my art!
Yay!
So she gave me a few historic figures to draw, and here's a really early draft of a 1910's suffragette.

Oh, it's also in the art portal, because meh.

Page thirteen already.. Dang.
Anyway, a shamefully late Dork Toes update: Out Of Luck. With Breaktroll in a cameo role again!

Blaaargghhh damn procrastination

No I don't! I brought it home over a month ago, probably only for you to forget that you have it.
Pfrt.

Anyway, I kinda liked the last dancing-me of the comic, so I made it into a stand-alone image.

Haha, yep, it's a gameboy advance. I was probably playing pokemon blue or Mario Kart or something.

Dudes! Comictime! It's even in colour!
Also, it's in the art portal!
Also, Dork Toes has its own facebook page now!

So a lot of stuff with exclamation marks.

To say that I don't yet have a good grasp on this kind of technique is an understatement, but at least I had fun making this strange face. Something different for a change.

Well, there are some things that I would like to pour into a comic as a way of dealing with them, and I think I'm tactful enough for that, but I'm a little scared it would come across as whining or looking for pity.
Which is really, rrrreally not what I want.

Egh, maybe I should care a little less about such things. It's my &?%# comic >: (

As long as I won't need eye bleach or anything, I guess I'm fine.

No, no fear young one. This one is personal in the sense that it deals with emotions, not with my ladyparts. Those comics will have a warning on the top of the page, as to prevent the need for eye-bleaching.

Let me explain , a freaky dude is standing naked in front of a crowd and frightens the crowd.

Haha, okay, fair enough.

I'm litterally working on it!
Actually, I may have a problem.. I'm thinking of making the next one kinda personal and not explicitly.. humorous. But I don't know how people will react to something like that and if that's a good idea. I don't want to come across as a whiner. Blergh

Uhh.. Don't really know what's happening here either.

Kick ass stuff, as usual. Your thread is ALWAYS a treat. One of my favorite artists on NG.

The headache was bloody frustrating.. And thanks a lot!

Thank you! That would be pretty awesome. At the moment I don't really know how many people actually follow this thing, but it can't be much. I'm planning on making a facebook page for it, though, could give me an idea.

Ha, another sketchbooky-one. I have no idea what happened here, I started drawing bodies and they just got more and more.. entangled.

Don't beat yourself up over it, pumpkin. Stuff like that happens and I'm sure nobody will hold being sick against you. Sick-days are off-days, and it's just fun to see you post anything in general.
Nice flash picture, by the way! I like the look of her hair.

My, my, it's tuesday.
Which means: new comic again! It's about Serbia.

hurraayy

And here, the reason why I can't join the Comic Jam at the moment. Drawing this stupid little thing took me hours due to horrible concentration and obviously, headache. I had to take a nap in between, geez.

"But Morthagg, why draw the thing in the first place?"
Because I had to vent my frustration.
THROUGH ART.

Also oatmeal probably doesn't help anything but it's because FUCK YOU HEADACHE.

My body has concluded that this weekend would be a good weekend for a migraine attack which will probably last at least untill tomorrow. In other words, I'll probably have to drop out. Arse this is frustrating/disappointing. Sorry everyone.

Buh, I'm trying to ink my first page, can't find a right style for my lineart, want to throw in the towel already. Barf. I'm such a wuss.

The good thing: I've had a piece of text that I've wanted to do a comic to lying around for a long time, and I'll say, it's about rain! Ka-ching!
The bad thing: Oh God I drew a first outline and it's probably going to be 8 pages stuffed with all different kind of water and I suck at drawing water.
Let's hope I get this thing done and at least it'll be good practice.

Since your love for voluptuous females is quite well known, I thought.. Why not.
It felt kinda weird and creepy to draw this, baha

And this one. Nonchalant I-am-muscular stance! aw yea

I guess that concludes my little sketch-dump for now, though I have more but I don't feel like uploading them at the moment.

So.. Animal things?
