There isn't a lot of variation on the colors that you're using to shade. Using an array of colors as opposed to different shades of the same color will make your drawing more lively and interesting to the eye.

The guy on the top left has his mouth too far to the right and too far down. It also seems a little small to me. His left and right eyes aren't symmetrical, which looks odd, especially since he has glasses.

The angling and perspective of the guy on the top right's features are somewhat awkward. It doesn't look like they're aligned and skewed quite right. I'm not very good at drawing faces at that angle, so I unfortunately can't be more specific as to what I think you should do, but referencing a photo generally helps.

I notice that there isn't any definition of the bumps, muscles, etc. on the neck of the guy on the bottom so that it looks like a cylinder. The neck also looks too long, but that might just be due to the hair covering the shoulders; nevertheless, I suggest taking a second look at it.

Hows that secret project coming?

I have done next to nothing so far to be honest. The idea keeps bouncing back and fourth between animation, animated comic, webcomic, and game. Right now i'm leaning towards animated comic. Like the panels of the comic book with slide onto the screen and there will be sounds and stuff and maybe minor animations within the frames as well.

I actually did do one full page pencil drawing of you and i fighting zombies as our alter egos. It turned out nice. I don't have a scanner but I'll get a photo and post it.

Why thank you sir! And thanks for the criticism. Good call on all points. I will definitely try to correct all the issues as best I can.

Main problem i see is that the guy kicking seems a little stiff

Speaking of kicking, you're a fuckin' asshole. XD

*ACHOOOO!!!* Does anyone have a duster for this relic of a thread? Almost a year since my last post, wow...

So I am participating in this Creaturing Collab where artists re-imagine children's drawings. I am tasked with redesigning this one: http://creaturing.micklauer.com/?p=91

Any advice, critique, or opinion will be much appreciated and never ignored. Thanks in advance.

This is what I have so far:

Just a quick practice. Shading and colour technique. Like it a lot for what it is.

There's something I really like about this. It may be my bias towards tophats, but I really do like this shading/color style.

Who doesn't like watching me kick some ass?

I bet the project is next to abandoned at this point, eh?

Hmmm. Yes, I had that thought as well. I think its back to the drawing board for this prototype. Plus there's the fact that you wouldn't be able to bend over in this thing without the chest piece stabbing you in the gut... Oh well.
