On the left is infected spirits character and of course Luxembourg's recent entry on here. I have forgotten some of the smaller details like the fur cuffing around his sleeve.

His name is Linconka and he is my character. He isn't Lincoln mixed with Blanka, he is the offspring of Lincoln and Blanka.

Offspring?
I can't unsee what you've just made me see in my mind.

Anyways, people will do it if they want to do it. There's no rule stating that somebody has to draw a character if it's been posted in this thread. Sorry.

I'm gonna quote what you've said before.
"Here is Abraham Lincoln as Blanka from Street Fighter II."
You've posted that image multiple times, and every time you have you've said that exact sentence.
You've never said he was Linconka, nor that he was the offspring of Lincoln and Blanka. You're just saying that he's Abraham Lincoln drawn as if he was Blanka from Street Fighter II.

Well now I say he is the offspring of Lincoln and Blanka. I can do that. If you don't want to draw him, don't do it.

I think the one on the right side is better. The left one is kinda weird, sumthing with too big eyes...

You're the first one for giving me some criticism on what I'm doing ...Thank you. At first it was suppose to be like a exaggeration to how the eyes brows looked in the beginning so I thought of adding some sort of tumor growing under his eye lids.

Well, it's easier to get criticism on your work when you appear to be asking for it other then drawing for the lulz, I suppose, say via making an art thread or just plain out asking. Anyway, I suppose I cna contribute.

On your teddy bear piece, the attempt at your posing isn't entirely forgotten but it is marred by the subtle flaws in anatomy not really being covered up by any rotation of the character - although tilted, he does look likes he's running across the screen and that does make it easier to pick out flaws. I'd suggest trying a few pieces where they're running towards the camera, and see how that works out.

Also, try to refine your lines- the simple lineart you have now is adequate, but could be enhanced via tracing the other lines, to firm in the character, or just experimenting with a variety of different pencil art and general line techniques to see the result. Woudl not advise spending that long on a texture again, it didn't amount to nearly enough for the amount of time that your put into it - could easily be mistaken for a scribble or general shading, which is what I did take it for until you pointed it out.

So in a nutshell, try out detail, different lines, and concentrate on those instead of textures. Not too bad work, argile.

Three hours? Your patience is commendable, I'd go insane spending that long on a pencil piece.

There are quite a few techniques that you can slap on to this piece (that I've gone ahead and exampled for you, although it will, of course, look better if done in pencil).

Firming in - is basically slapping on a thicker line around the outline of the original picture. Helps a lot to add definition to the piece, stands it out from the background. It only needs to be slightly bigger then the original lien thickness. It's a fairly "cheap" technique, doesn't exactly require too much to do, but it helps.

Altering line thicknesses itself - that is, going into the picture and more or less outlining parts of the picture - best used on focal points, such as the eyes, and only needs to be slightly thicker then the original, but adds lien variety and makes the picture more interesting. I've put an example on, but it'll need to be used more subtly then that.

Details - tiny, tiny details can add that extra touch of realism to any piece. A few strokes of the pencil can turn a pair of pants into a really detailed pair of pants. It's adding the glare to shiny surfaces, the scales to anything, but it's best if not used overly - you don't want to clog up a piece with detail where simplicity would have worked just as well. Best to just add a few details here and there.

Shading - crosshatching, darkening, whatever your method, this really helps to bring a piece to life. Basically darkening whereever the sun doesn't smack. Sparingly, extensively, whatever, but this one only really becomes effective with practice, so you might want to have a few goes until you use it on anything serious or whatever.

Anyway, these minor additions can take anywhere from 5 minutes to half an hour, depending how quick you go and how mechanically indepth you are - that is, whether or not you want ever line perfect, or you can't be fucked and decide to just scribble it out.

I'll draw your character- my style.
