    I warned people I'd be posting this thread haha, so here goes some of my work:

    Unfinished WIP for a shirt design of Ecksist clothing:

    Some Spyro the Dragon sketches I had to do by request, had no real reference so drew what was in my mind;

    A friend that asked me to draw him as a KH character;

    (Note: I don't think the link displayed exist as it is an abbreviation, if it does I will remove the picture immediately to prevent any case of misunderstanding for "advertisement.")


    CLOVERFIELD MONSTER LOLS;

    [​IMG]


    Horrendous Terra drawing, I know the face is completely messed and other stuff; Didn't use barely any reference and the pose I came up with by myself:

    I think that's enough, I'll post a real old group pic of some of my friends and I that I did in a matter of some hours with my tablet on photoshop, it has a message that we only get really, but oh well:

    That will suffice, C&C appreciated even if most of them are incredibly old. xD

    Duuuuuude these are incredibly lovely!! I don't know where to start!!

    That hippo in a suit was drawn very well, I love how that mouth was drawn.. So... awesome...

    Your Spyro sketches are very impressive! They are also part of my favourites, you show his youth side and almost misciefous expressions/personality. Nice body structure going on as well.. The 5th headshot is my fav. <3

    For the KH guy, I guess this was one of your older works? I think that the head seems to be too big for the body, or.. the arms seem too short. I know the upper outfit is baggy and all, but yeah - there might be something there, I am unsure. The chest and hips seems too slim because again, it might be the head's size giving that impression.

    Cloverfield monster is amaaaaazing... Perhaps let it have some shadows since the person in the drawing had shadows? Not importaint tho.

    You're right about the Terra tho - the face did look rather funky looking. You tried to go for the Nomura style too huh? I think the main problem is simply that the head doesn't fit the face's features size wise. Either work on the head or shrink the eyes, nose, everything. Other than that, the pose of the body is drawn very well and you seem to have no problems here.

    I hope to see more art from you - you have a lot of talent. :3

    Dude, these are amazing. I love every single one of them.

    The Spyro ones are probably my favorites; along with the Terra drawing. His face looks a little weird, but it is still fantastic!

    Good job and I can't wait 'til we can see more of your drawings. ^^

    Most of these things have very good qualities and I can't say I have any suggestions that would be helpful to you.

    You're much more skilled at drawing creatures then you are at drawing humans. The Hippo drawing for instance, actually has tints of realism to it, the shape and proportion of it are dead-on. Bends and lines in all the right places, same with the Spyros and the Cloverfield Monster. But your Humans fingers need work. Bodies are in proper proportion, and they don't look nearly as realistic, the figures all seem to be messed up in some sort of way. And they all have the same face...

    All I can say is practice drawing human anatomy and figures more often, they need work.

    Thank you, Cin. I have always loved drawing creatures way more than humans. I should start using proportion and reference lines before sketching, since I never really did and drew everything from the air. I will practice more, again, thanks a lot, appreciated!
