It might help to limit the amount of sketches submitted so as to minimize confusion on the crits and approach issues individually. One of the consistent problems that I noticed is with your eye renders, the very first post of the stark white female with black hair, her left eyes seems higher than her right and the nose is distractingly off center. The angel on the first submission suffers the same crits.

The warrior angel coming towards us in the second series is a very good start because it is doing a good job of creating movement and the picture is far from stagnant. It would be great to see you develope that one more.

And just touch up the brow of the gentleman in the last segment on the left. The cast shadow above his eye isn't consistent with the light strength in the picture and is definitely too large for a realistic portrayal.

Really hope this helps,
JB

Or you can just start a blog in the sketchbook section. This area is definitely more for individual pieces or a short run and more specific critiques. In the sketchblog section, you can have an ongoing thread like this and post as much as you want.

I could move this there if you like. Just let me know.

I like the dude with what looks like a bag on his head.

[SmittyX]

Ack. I'll move over to the blog section as advised. Salve.

The two last gentlemen and the Turban Hawk guy i think could benefit from a greater range of value. Darker blacks, Brighter whites. In particular the clothing. They are flat grey and too stiff.

But I like some of your stuff here. The ninja (bird?) especially. Only cuz I got a few drawings similar to it. What kind of animal is the ninja? Im not sure if its a bird or some other critter perhaps with a mask. But still he looks badass.

[SmittyX]

Hey thank's, thats a great point about 'range of value',

The Bird guy was supposed to be for a scarecrow type character for a webcomic thing called Tezlon, but It did turn out more like 'Bird-Bag-the Rubby Ninja', lol.

Thank for your comments...


Smitty,
