Description Wow. I saw this pic in the official nintendo magazine and thought I just had to draw it. So I did.

This took me ages, and I am so pleased with the way it turned out Please PLEASE give my truthfully honest comments on this, like what I've done wrong and how I can improve this etc. Or even anything you particularly like about it.
The original picture is in the bottom corner which will be seen clearly in full view.

I guess the game and character are (c) to Nintendo.

Once again, I beg you to give me tips on how to improve my skills, and even get others to too!

Pretty good. I don't really have some advanced critique to offer (particularly because I probably couldn't do better) but from my standpoint it's just about right. And awesome job on the hand! Alot of people can't do hands very well. *hides messed up hand drawings begin back*

I like the form of her head and jaw line and the facial expression is really accurate.
It doesn't looked traced to me so everyone who said that just sucks

Although I think that her face seems to be tilted to one side a bit (probably cos you need to make the right side of her hair a lil rounder) and her ear looks a bit long.
It's good though

Hey, thanks a lot!

Again, thanks for a decent critique! I'll go chekc out your gallery!

you could have tilted the character's head forward more, and shifted the character's eyes a little to look down further, but I like it,it's good ^^.

rurounigoku78 [2005-07-08 21:23:58 +0000 UTC]

that's very good I don't know why people think you traced though, the pupils on the eyes aren't focused on the DS in yours, they must not look at it closely enough *goes into 5 hour speech which actually never happens*

arfenzard In reply to rurounigoku78 [2005-07-08 21:39:19 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I don't get how I did the eyes, but they are my weak point.

Thank you for pointing it out, now I can try and improve the eyes on my drawings

Curlibear [2005-07-08 00:22:08 +0000 UTC]

Ahh that's really brilliant! I have no idea how you did her hand so well, hands are my weak points so I'll have to learn off you

The only constructive criticism(sp?) I can find - from a personal opinion - would be to experiment further on the shading with a softer pencil maybe - like her cheeks, hands, nose and mouth for example. You've already proved you could do it brilliantly by her hair, the DS and her neck anyway!

But then again, I always overdo shading on my pictures, so maybe it's best not to listen to me....

So yeah, great job!

arfenzard In reply to Curlibear [2005-07-08 06:51:12 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, next time I'll try to get more shading, but the pencil I used wasn't good, it's too hard.

But yay, thank you for the cmment!

No! If I hear one more person say that, I will scream. If you saw the real thing in the magazine and my picture, you would see my picture is bigger.

But thank you for the comment

Bekalou [2005-07-07 22:02:12 +0000 UTC]

Cool! I like the shading. I think her head may be too narrow front to back, making it look a little more elongated than it should. That's the only real problem I notice, though. Good job!

arfenzard In reply to Bekalou [2005-07-08 06:54:03 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, when I looked at it again I could do with changing that, thank you for pointing that out!

And seeing your sig, I'll drop by your gallery later and leave come comments!
