Description needed some practice actually, I need a loooot of it haha but I am so proud of myself! I've gotten really good at the folds in clothes and it only took me 11+ years of drawing anime to finally get to a place that's half decent with the clothes and anatomy.. just. damn.

every time....X_X; I can become a great artist..but it takes FOR. E. VER. OTL I am fast at drawing, but slow to improve. haha

and as far as coloring goes...meh...needmorepracticeandninjatrainingforthat~ hah

hope my random doodling/practicing was of some help to you too in some weird way. practice things you're not good at. XD I used anime screencaps, Sai tutorials, and concepts I learned in school to help me do this so keep trying with whatever you can!

whatyoutalkinboutWillis?

Personally, I think you are already extremely brilliant at what you do. But, you think you need more practice, and you're going to climb up to perfection no matter what I say. That's just the person you are.

Atsuko-chan and Daichi-kun~!!! Where have you two been?! and Abbas, looking awesome no matter what style you're drawn in.

These are excellent shock! But if I may offer some advice? For perspective I would advise that you make your character look less like they are shrinking away, as you sun them on an axis. Think like one of those fancy globes that can pivot and swing. If you want to work on your perspective, show your character in different planes. Like for the one above, show us the bottom of the feet and obscure the collar bone behind the chest. Its not about the depth, it's about the perception of depth. Hope this helps you in any way possible! P.s. I dig the clothing practice, it looks very natural.

shock777 In reply to darker-deep-down [2012-04-09 19:06:43 +0000 UTC]

I tried doing that... I used an actual reference pose for that one though, not on my own. and I started off drawing it that way, the chest covering the collar bone, etc. but...kusu doesn't have big boobs that get in the way >///>;;;;;;;;;;

darker-deep-down In reply to shock777 [2012-04-09 20:37:03 +0000 UTC]

But what throws me off is the feet. A trick to perspective is that the proportions don't change too drastically, just enough to simulate distance. As great as your drawings are, I think you focus too much on the 2-d and not enough on the 3-d aspect of it.

dou itashi mashite! I'll make a join me. Are you familiar with how they work?

u can chat on the chat box. there are bubbles at the top, the one that has a speech balloon is the chat box. but next to it to the right there is a person button, click that and your viewer number (I'll tell u what it is) to change your name. usually, you'll be called "Viewer 3" etc. so then you would type nami-hyuga so i knew it was you XD
