Hello. I like to draw. 2013-11-07 20:02:14


Drawing is something I'd to like to improve on, because I have a dream that I'm working towards. I believe everyone has at least one story to tell, something within them that they'd like to tell the world. For me I want to achieve this through visuals. I'm going to college right now for things like character design and story development, but I'd like to have my art reviewed here. I know my way around Photoshop, so if you could give me guidance with regards to that, I'd would really appreciate it. If there is another (free, starving student and all that,) program you'd highly recommend instead, that would be cool as well.

I'm really fond of drawing robots and mashups with science fiction/fantasy elements. Environments are another area I feel I'm lacking in, so help there would be useful as well.

Thank you! Is there anything I could improve on?

Be confident and keep at it :)

the first two drawings I picture being animated in my head, as if they were in a flash movie on here.

That's a good thing. Keep it up.

The background of the second illustration could use some improvement. Right now it isn't complimenting the character at all and simply distracts due to its equally vibrant colors and details.
If you want to improve your cape/clothing in general you can look up real pictures of clothing or search for guides on folds etc.
Out of all your works your robots look the most solid to me, I'm sure you'll improve naturally over time if you keep at it. Only thing I'd recommend here is to experiment with more dynamic poses and foreshortening since this seems to be the direction you were going for with the last few bots.

Third one looks like it's about to break-dance or something... I like it! What about drawing a big war robot thingy? That would be awesome.

I see, I see. I experience difficulty with foreshortening, perhaps I will focus on that the most. Does anybody here know some good guides/tips that have helped them in regards to clothing and foreshortening?

Here's something I just finished. Can anybody answer my previous question? :(

You should check out Jazza in youtube.
He made a tutorial on cloth and foreshortening.
But it still ultimately leads to practice.


Drawin' and being trash. :3

Finished that lineart with a new approach to digital painting.
