Wicked

This turned out great, thanks for letting my throw my hand into this.

JKAmovies responds:

Glad you liked it ;)

ok I guess

Honestly I have seen better art in my students work they do in their sketches for art class at the end of each Friday. most of these are nice but few follow anything close to traditional figure drawing...yes even he heroes..those use heroic proportions, not realistic ones.

Aside from that critical thing. These are best suited for what they are for anyway, video games and comics and the like. So no major motion films for them. But I guess as a teacher, I kind of get tired of seeing stuff like this . The novelty wears off after a couple years of it.

I'm not understanding the need for such background fake papers. They were all done in flash or whatever program each prefers with those paper backgrounds right. So I don't see a point. I'd say its a little more impressive if entirely done on those papers freehand, then scanned over. Since paper drawing is a much different experience and skill-set than tablet or mouse drawing.

So overall I would guess some points for the efforts done to get tis ready, but this is roughly same or less than the quality my students put out in a 2 hour session every Friday afternoon for sketching time.

So grading as I do for my class, 10 being A and 1 being fail-redo, I give a 4/10
and over all flash a 2/5
Im sure you'll do better next friday :)

JKAmovies responds:

Not to sound like a douche, but I don't really believe you being a teacher (what kind of teacher goes on NG?). Sorry if I am wrong though.

As for the criticism, I'd like to see those 'students' of yours, because they must have some pretty good art abilities if that is true. Seriously though, the point of this is sketch drawings, and doing this on paper (even though being a very good idea) it would be a great distrait on many artists and doing that is a struggle for those who don't have such facility's to do so. This is a media based collab anyway, and trust me... Drawing media-based is just as hard (or even harder) as doing on paper. it involves knowing the program and utilize what it offers.

I guess this is solely for artists. This is something that artists would understand more than others.

Thanks for the criticism none the less, it is a help, though most of what you pointed out I do not agree with (I'm taking a guess that you're an English teacher if any). thanks ~JKA ;3
