My Bio
Well.

To keep it simple. Art is my hobby, not my profession. But, I love it very much. :)

I did take art class throughout highschool
However, the most advice my teacher gave me was "Get your grade up."
So, she never helped me.... at all.
She had a habit of not helping people who's work she didn't like.


ANYWAY!!!! So, for the most part. I am self tought. I'm NOT new to DA. However, after a two year hiatus, my style had changed and I felt as though my previous account.... Bogged down my potential.

So, here I am! PLEASE WATCH. ; A ;
So, ~bloodlover1 (https://www.deviantart.com/bloodlover1) is currently doing free commissions and has a limit of two per person. He's doing this to gain a bit more popularity, and quite honestly I'm surprised he doesn't have more popularity already because he is VERY skilled. He's got an excellent understanding of anatomy, His shading is realistic. And his eye for color is impressive. Anyway. I put in a request and after seeing the AMAZING job he did, I asked for another. Currently, the only stipulation for the free commissions is that you spread his name, and I told him, I was more than happy to help. So, here I am, whoring out his name for him. Here is the amazing work he

So, as stated before. I openly take requests, art trades, whatever you can think of. Just go ahead and leave a comment or message me. I take well to questions, so don't be shy. I'm doing this to help me improve my skills. So, if anything, you'll be doing ME a favor

No. I'm NOT asking which one is better. I'm asking which should I do more of? Should I just use colored pencils to color my work? Or practice more with photoshop?

Here's my critique :D

[link]
The lineart in this picture is pretty messy and scribbly. You could make it much better just by using smooth lines. The background seems to have no effort put into it. It doesn't take much effort to put some more detail. The drawing itself is nice, though :3

The anatomy is really off. Huge heads and eyes, and tiny waists. You're drawing people all the same, like they're some sort of generic bratz doll or something.

Messy picture is messy. There's that icky layer around the lineart that you could easily evade by using layers. Don't have a digital art program with layers? Get GIMP. It's free, and as good as Photoshop. ;)

Again, messy lineart. The hair looks rigid, like it's a plastic cap.
Also, that bullet wouldn't travel with a solid red line trailing behind it. Blood would be streaming out into the air. It wouldn't already be caked to his shirt. Also, why is he sleeping? If I got shot, I wouldn't have a calm expression, that's for sure.

This drawing is good in general, but the colouring is pretty messy. Also, it's boring. Add a background, and it'll look way better.


<3
I wish I had done that dragon in photoshop. I didn't though. I did it on RMD's drawchat, and it's all one layer. X.x;


Anyway. Thank you so much for all the help! My biggest issue, I see, is that I'm too lazy and it ends up making everything look messy. I mean, I've always known that, but now that I see how others receive that, I can improve on it.

Again. Thank you so much! :D
No problemo! :lol:
I love critiquing. Although now that I look back, hanging out at the forums has made me pretty snarky... D: Sorry if I sounded mean :3
I didn't think it was mean. You presented your critique honestly, while maintaining a polite tone. Besides, I asked for critiques.
Thanks again. :)

Can't wait to see how your art progresses :D
Thank's! It'll especially help that I'm going to be taking a drawing class in fall. <3
:P Would almost say people normally don't need art class. xD Like with my art for example, but then again, it beats having to google everything. >.<
