Iron's art Gallery!

[lron]

Sup all, I'm new to the drawing scene and wanted criticism on my artwork, I'll start with a background, yes it was inspired from Coma. Sorry for the lack of originality right now, I'm trying to grab the basics. Will be posting more soon!

P.S. Drawn with mouse.

[lron]

Sadfaic. No pic.

There's not much at all going on in this picture, so there's not much to say about. Perhaps add more colour, post more of your art and try and do a landscape with a bit more to look at.

Yeah, sorry about that, here's another, with more.

[Lintire]

Art si way too blank, I'd suggest making it a might more busy - so much as putting in characters might help quite a bit. What are your preferred tools, asking?

[CloudEater]

The first one is quite interesting but is a bit too unclear and needs more depth. How long do you spend on each piece?

The second one needs more perspective to it. Unless the scene your drawing is something like the picture where after the tree the ground drops away or if he tree is on the top of a hill and the camera angle is looking up at it then the tree shouldn't be on top of the grass. If your going going for a side-on sidescroller style then it's ok but more perspective would be good.

Drawing a side few I find helps with drawing a landscape and what should be visible in the 2d picture you draw. You should keep practicing and trying more things.

also wtf, no one took the name Iron until last month?

I'm gonna take a stab at it and say that's an L not an I

You were right! copy and paste it to see for yourself.

Useful stuff

I agree the depth is a problem, I'll try to work on that, maybe draw a character. (First time though so, don't expect too much) On the first 2 pieces around 30 minutes or so each. And my tools I use are,

Brush, blur and fill. Havent tried anything else yet.

It's an L, yes.

[redcow144]

personally i like the 1st one. thats just because i like the emptyness of it.

[lron]

New one, the mountain looks off, I can't place why, any suggestions?

[lron]

Added grass and a house, the house back part definitely needs work.

[lron]

Been awhile since updated.

I'm still working to improve environmental stuff rather than complicated single characters.

It was already discussed, it's a lowercase L not an uppercase i.

[lron]

Sorry for the low res and weird pictures, I reexported them and are on my art profile.

Here is a pic of a waterfall, I don't think it turned out good, around 1 hour of dedicated work. Any advice on how to draw water better?

[bigjonny13]

You wanna blend it together more.

a water brush is best.
using blur could work, but i dont really advise it. experiment though.
