Finally fixed her torso and shoulders. Also fixed up her boobs. Made them a little perky, doubt she'll mind. kept her right breast there for reference when I get her clothes on. Now to her mashoogana left leg

Adam, it strikes me that the arm that isn't visible seems a little awkward, mainly because of the inability to see it. Even just a hint of the elbow below the other arm would help. The shape of the thighs also seems a bit stiff but that just may be a stylistic choice. You have a pretty good grasp on the comic style though.

Thanks for the feedback Fightgarr. The arm is still missing but I'm hoping hat after her leg I can fix it up holding a sword. As for her thighs, I notice that happens to be something I regularly do with figure so yeah I guess you could call it style, speaking of which it really isn't that difficult. Just takes practice, observation and HEMP

Humanising, Emphazing and Minimizing in order to show Personality

HEMP is a new one on me. I just rely on my 3 years of life drawing and my 5 years of art school for figure drawing...as pompous an arrogant as that sounds. Development of style is very important though, personal style is what determines a good drawer from a great artist.

This is probably going to sound incredibly silly, but I'd just like to thank Labyrinth, as well as everyone else in this topic, for posting.

I have been trying to get back into drawing for a while now and this topic has been a good inspiration for me.

Cheers~

finished the leg, gave it a bit off a clean up. Not completely sold on the foot though.



Added some more details which are pretty much Caity all the way (tufts at the eyebrows, chin cleft, her hair part). Have to say I think its a pretty good likeness.

firstly a face to put to my name, this is the character i created after i thought of the name archemetis, a black mage cowboy of sorts...
It's also my first real stab at digital painting.

the first successful picture I ever made with my graphics tablet.
The character is me.

And on the side of everything else i do, like college and looking fancy I do a somewhat relaxingly updated comic which is found on Deviantart this is the latest page, i'm currently on the "Parodying anime will score me tons of pageviews" stage, it won't last...

Here's mine
http://images.ea.com/games/cncportal/RedAlert/Uprising/RA3Uprising_SteelRonin.jpg

I don't know if it's OK just to put the link in here. You see, even that I'm the concept artist
who create him, the rights of the artwork it's not mine, EA Westwood own him now, if anyone at Westwood think it's inappropriate for me to post the link here just tell me so I will remove the link.

And here's some work in progress.

That's really awesome stuff. I hope to eventually get into concept art... eventually. That's some cool-ass shit there. What program do you use? And what kind of tablet?

Thanks, I use PhotoshopCS3 and Wacom Intuos3.Wacom might be more expensive but for anyone who into this concept art thing I recommend Wacom tablet, just any Wacom tablet will do, even Wacom Bamboo. You see, tablet other than Wacom tend to ruin so easy(some claim they get ruin in 3 months) But my old tablet(Wacom Graphire3) last for three years, and when I change pen tip it's still function perfectly.

Not to mention they also own the patent for the batteryless pen technology and in general just provide a much better working experience and a large catalogue of useful features.

My Graphire4 is only just on it's way out but i blame the change to a Vista machine more then the tablet, i'm also looking into getting an Intuos3, since i sued my friends one i've been hooked on the idea.

I'm using a Wacom Bamboo at the moment. It does the job for now. Though I'm only using photoshop elements so it might be good to invest in the actual program.

I used to draw quite often, nothing great, but it was fun, tried recently and can't draw worth a shit... Always amazes me what some people can do with just a pencil and some paper.

i totally wish i could draw. unfortunately i look like i was massively drunk when i do. its a shame because i wanted to be a webcomic artist (not a gaming one) and i can totally think of some amazing looking stuff. problem is i cant put it on paper. and my scanner sucks. and i dont have any art programs but ms paint. blah blah blah. if i actually draw something good i will show it to you guys. too bad it would take a long time.
