really good man. Show us more, bizznatch
-
I agree
you're pretty good
-
Amazing. I can't find any part I don't like in your style. :)
-
I haven't see you in such a long long long time Homunculus!
Great stuff, =*c I miss your work. Post more. ^_-
-
Awesome
Voidy is my fav.
-
Amazing! Some of those are pretty twisted :p
Love it, yes. I like the computer drawn one especially because it seems freer and really has depth.
-
Great drawing again. How are you at backgrounds in your pictures?
-
Awesome ^.^
-
God damn you for being so good and for not posting here often enough!
-
Oh my god. I love the sniper one so much.
It's incredible that your line drawings have such a bold and crisp feel to them and yet your coloured ones look so free.

No I'm not back, but I have a soft spot for art.
I'd say stop drawing anime altogether if you ever want to be taken seriously as an artist for a future career. Even if its just a hobby, its faaarrrrrr to widely used. Get your own style, draw photos, sit in the park and draw people walking by or animals, or even in school, doodle the teacher or the guy sitting next to you. Just get out of this generic anime style.
Im sure you wont listen to that tidbit of advice though, so, onto your actual line work.
I like your twisted works the most, but thats only because in a picture like that where the human form doesn't have to be portrayed too correctly, its easiest to hide anatomy flaws. Your hands are all a bit weird. They're flat. They have no knuckles, no real structure to them. They look like empty gloves.
Your heads vary from way too big, to pretty small.
All your characters look like females. All of them. You have to get out of the anime style and realize that male and female body structure is VERY DIFFERENT. Especially your faces. They all look the same. No different eye placement, varied noses/mouths, chin size, cheekbones, nothing.
All of your arms are way too long.
I wish you would draw more full body, ya know? Try not to skip out on them feet. Im guessing your not too good with legs/feet so you try to avoid them, but dont. You'll never get better like that.
ALL IN ALL, they're okay. You're not a terrible artist or anything. I give criticisms to help YOU. To SHOW YOU where you need help. When people just randomly pat you on the back just to be polite or because they can't draw any better, it doesn't help much. Which is what this entire thread has been pretty much.
Draw photos. Draw from real life. Its a great way to get your anatomy knowledge way up there. I know you probably just want to draw anime and make magic, but even the most generic professional anime artists know their anatomy. They just choose to MOLD IT INTO THE MOST OVERUSED STYLE EVER. Learn your anatomy a bit more, then begin molding it into your OWN style.
Thats my advice. Your stuff is pretty good compared to alot of people who want to draw. DONT LOOK AT THIS AS A BASH ONTO YOUR WHOLE ARTISTIC TALENT JUST BECAUSE I DIDNT GIVE YOU A SCOOBY SNACK.
I hate that I have to actually explain that or I'd get the shittiest of shitstorms from u doodz

Stop posting the url tags.
Its kind of troublesome to COPY PASTE COPY PASTE just to look at these drawings.
You pay good attention to detail, and your lines are very crisp and clean. The way you do your folds in clothing is nice, but you're people just look so....flat. Flat and bland. You draw situations/scenes pretty good. It may not seem too difficult, but its hard to get a good interaction between characters, and you do it nicely.
These characters are all too androgynous. Female faces, female hair, yet broad shoulders, no bust whatsoever. You need to sit and sketch out the male and female body. Learn the differences, because it really is a reoccurring problem for you. No artist changes overnight though, just keep working on it I guess.
The tablet pieces arent to great, I guess your not used to it yet.
Yeah well, just keep working on everything I've mentioned previously. Anatomy blah blah blah androgynous forms blah blah blah
One more thing:
You're pretty good at dynamic hand poses. They just need form and depth to them.
-
Hmm...
While it is that generic RPG style that I hate so much, you are really really good
Only major criticism I have is the oddness of the faces...a couple of them look lopsided
Also, I agree with Ol' Rev on thee links
if you're worrying about size, use a spoiler tag

Thank you so much! Video games were my biggest inspiration so that wore off on my style XD (Shin Megami Tensei/Persona to be super precise) Oh, lopsided? :o!!! Do you know which ones specifically??? I'm trying to improve myself so I like to absorb crits to avoid the same mistakes :3
-
The most recent batch is my favourite. I, too, am not fond of anime, and your style certainly does seem to be evolving into some less akin to it. Your detailing is very good, as is your ability to create inter-character scenes with strong moods.
I don't have as much of an aversion to androgyny as Rev. Maybe Freud would have something to say about that.
-
Wow, you've improved a lot man! Your art seems much more refined and detailed. The only thing that bugs me is sometimes I can really tell the gender. XP Sometimes it seems the only defining feature is the beard, like if you took the beard away, they'd be a boobless woman. I mean no offense, just how I feel. But don't take that the wrong way, you've got amazing talent here!

I meant anime with the style
God damn word dyslexia
And specifically, the third one down has a slightly lopsided face
It's just proportioned weird
-
Wow, thank you so much everyone! Yeesss, I quite like girly looking men XD 90% of my characters are dudes, if they don't have boobs it's safe to assume they're a dude XD I am trying to work on manly facial features for the sake of diversity but it is a challenge as you can see.
And thank you all so much for the constructive crits! I really appreciate them :3 I don't see mistakes right away so I really appreciate it when people point them out to me so I fan try to improve on them.
