God i wish i can draw :( i feel so handicaped its nice it look like the left side of his jaw is drooping o_0

[LAB~MONSTER]

Its good man. He looks scared.....lol. I think its better than what i can do. good job Resta.

[Restavega]

Its good man. He looks scared
Thanks, man. Just the feedback I was looking for. That's the concept - he is apparently very powerful yet he portrays fear. I wanted to get that emotion through and you nailed it, Lab. More to come.

And with his chin being alittle lower, Ski, his head is tilted a bit and also if you notice some people's faces aren't always symetrical anyway.

What can I say, as always, this and every other picture you draw is the S##T! Very powerful... A lot of people can draw, but its very hard to portray such an emotional drawing. Love your work babe. :love: I can't wait for you to post the self portrait one.

The face as I said before is ver detialed..

The shadowing/Shading is good.

Even the blood lip,and a look that says "What's next"

Is cool.

down side....The neck is to large...ir builds into his back space like it's part of his back..making it appear hunchbacked...

you also told me you wont change this...

For the most part..this is good stuff...

If you can reduce neck muscle mass into a more even scenrio..then it'll be a good piece of work..

rating..

7.8/10

I think it might look cooler if the shade lines all pointed in the same direction. Maybe if some areas were darker than others it might add some dynamic lighting.

I see what you mean. Good observation.

The neck size is perfect. Of course, in art (and imagination) there are no boundaries to size or limitations. That neck looks great to me.

He is looking up, throwing his neck and head up, but you're right. The neck line should be shorter on his left side (which would be your right when you look at the picture) so it doesn't look so much like a hunchback or odd extention.

I still need some polishing up.

I think it might look cooler if the shade lines all pointed in the same direction. Maybe if some areas were darker than others it might add some dynamic lighting.

About the shade lines pointing in a the same direction... I've done that before and it gives presence of light an awkward look on the subject. I was taught to shade away from the center of the face or an object. Still something I'm experimenting with so I'm not too familiar with shading in general.

And about shading areas being darker than others, that is an important issue I need some practice with as well. I don't have strong grasp of it yet. Thanks for pointing that out

Post the Alien looking girl, that I colored... lolz Sorry getting ahead of myself. Anyway, I think that the face is the main focus in this picture, that is why it has the most detail and work put in to it, not so much the neck.

that's dam good.

If only i had natural talents like that :down:

but still....a real good job. :biggrin:

[Restavega]

that's dam good.

Trust me. There is nothing natural about it. It just takes patience and the will to keep learning. Same goes for anything you like to do. Stick to it and you only get better.

[TremulantX]

who is it?

[Restavega]

who is it?
It's no one in particular. It's just an original piece open for comments and criticism.

[Vash]

Very nice drawing and the details.

[Boxfighter]

That's a crazy drawing man. :buttrock: But who is it?

[Boxfighter]

Hey, man. No problem. That's what being a spontaneous poster is all about. Don't sweat it. :cool:

[machine1]

yeah thats a hot drawing...... i wish i had that talent.

[Z-z]

shading is nice but as VF said it would prob. look buch better if the shading
went in one direction. but still this is a nice peice of art you got

[Restavega]

Now I think I am confused by what you mean...

Do you two mean the lines going in the same direction (which is what I am assuming) or do you two mean the shading be on one side of his face (as if the light is hitting him from one side).

If you're suggesting the second one, then I'll tell you that the light is hitting him from above (he is outside and the sun is above). I'll gladly draw a picture of the light coming from one side if you want to see one direction of shading. But if you're talking about me putting the shading on one side as a sense of style, I don't think that's appropriate. You don't just put the shading on one side because it looks better. Besides, this picture is a concept so there is no right or wrong as far as incoming light is concerned.

[Windarossa]

Rest, post the picture that i colored, of that alien looking girl. :laugh:
