Joseph's shiny new sketchbook

[Fedodika]

well you see, the point of doing your own picture, is hitting roadblocks, and you can post here or the critter cave and get people to point out issues so you can fix them in real time and learn from it, instead of making a mistake, rendering the mistake, and never becoming aware of it. I believe that improvement in art is 99% knowing what not to do, because the scope of what we are doing is so limited in the sense of realism. theres only a few things that will work, but an unimaginable things that wont ;)

But for your piece, the colors are interesting, but the pose is really stiff, the leg coming out is weirdly long, and the shoe is enormous. And overall it feels like a study of someone in a costume in a chair. But yea, if you have digital, work with that for this kinda stuff because its flexible. But id reccomend just drawing freehand more with pencil or pen and learning what your style is before doing a full imaginative illustration, oh and getting lots of critiques in your process so you can learn that stuff quicker ;0
