RE: Desirulz's Sketchbook Crituqe/Advice Wanted - VoodooMama - 06-24-2015

Nice gestures! The lineworks has been getting better on your characters
My advice would be to work more on light and form, also brushstrokes when painting. For example the painting of the winged girl, her legs and face look like they lack structure, though mostly on the legs is the way the light hits. The brushstrokes are very scribbly on her wings and hair too.

RE: Desirulz's Sketchbook Crituqe/Advice Wanted - desirulz123 - 06-24-2015

@VoodooMama Thanks I took the advice of the other posters about gestures and I have been improving ever since! I need to figure out light and form, most of the time I work on drawing these days trying to take my time with it. When working I forget about good brush strokes, need to figure out painting again. Thanks again for the advice, time to work :D

Nice stuff! Need to get those studies going, do a couple of master studies for that enviro you are doing (hudson river school would be nice) and if you want a seriously good book on animal drawing I recommend THe art of animal drawing by Hultgren, I think its published by Dover. Really nice book. Anyway keep up the good work :) Looking forward to seeing more and thanks for stopping by my sketchbook!

RE: Desirulz's Sketchbook Crituqe/Advice Wanted - -echo- - 07-17-2015

Great progress, I can see that you are leveling up! If you want to be able to draw comic in a realistic style I think you are on the right track. You must learn the fundamentals, which I can see that some other people already commented. Study some anatomy, perspective, light, shadows, values & form and I think you will level up pretty fast :)

Another thing you should do if you want to be able to draw realistic cartoons is to draw, well.. Realistic! Do some still life, portraits and stuff and try to get it as realistic as possible! Then you can maybe apply what you've learned to a cartoon character. I´ll think you will do great! Keep it up! :D

RE: Desirulz's Sketchbook Crituqe/Advice Wanted - desirulz123 - 07-27-2015

@Jaik Thanks for the recommendations, I have been working hard these past few days. Got to work my butt off, thanks for stopping by and keep up the good work.

@-echo- Thanks for the tips, I'm still learning so all this advice is helpful, I will take it to heart. Keep up the good work.

I had a lot of trouble with the commission picture but I think I pulled through, I learned a lot with doing research and taking time on a drawing. References helped me through this piece and the information I gained is priceless.

RE: Desirulz's Sketchbook Crituqe/Advice Wanted - ari - 09-24-2015

i really like what you're doing with colour in your last few images, your first couple of paintings are really flat but you've made some nice improvement in giving form to your shapes! 

i think that you should focus on anatomy, especially your proportions. quick gestures would help with that!

RE: Desirulz's Sketchbook Crituqe/Advice Wanted - desirulz123 - 09-28-2015

@ari I'm glad you think i improved, I have been paying attention to studying light and form so i think that helped alot. I'm studying hands right now cause it's the most frustrating to learn for me anyway. I was so into making pictures that i forgot about proportions, they are in my head but i kinda started exaggerating them not really thinking about it. So thanks for pointing them out :)

I realize I'm doing less studies and more imagination work these days. I'm going to get back into doing a lot of  both.

Here is some new stuff.

Hey,
I like that you have a good grip on your own vision of what you like to see in art with these colorful animal characters. It's really important to keep that original source of inspiration and taste as you go forward with trying to improve your technique and fundamentals.

I'm just going to repeat what some people mentioned earlier; you would really benefit from improving your draftsmanship. You have a lot of energy the loose sketching, but your marks can be simplified and more focused to do more with less. You get a cleaner, more readable result that way.

Proko can definitely explain this concept better than I can

Hope that helps!

Nice sketchbook here Desirulz123 :). I like your humanoid animal characters designs - they are cool :).

Looking at your figures, I thought you might benefit from taking a more constructional approach to drawing your characters, maybe Proko's mannequin videos might help you:

I've gone back to basics with my human anatomy and these videos have been one of the cornerstones of my learning. I hope they help you.

Keep posting though - looking forward to more :).
