The Slayer from Baldur's Gate.  Maooor fan-art.  The legs are out of proportion, I know.  Given, that wouldn't be such a problem if I added in the arms that it uses as a second set of legs, but eh.  I'm not satisfied with my work with this guy, but I got lazy.

Get some real lines.
Not the thousands of mini ones.
I mean actual, confident lines.

Do a rough sketch first if you want, then go over it in a darker shade or a different color, but get some ACTUAL LINES.

Also human heads do not work that way.

You dont need to over detail the hair like that. Just draw the outline for it. I guess its personal choice but it looks sloppy and rushed that way.
Your eyes are like... discs. Like rice cakes. Make them SMALLER and space them 1 EYE APART. Also their noses are just check marks. Fix that.

STYLE IS NOT AN EXCUSE.
PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE.

I use multiple layers and the paint-chat I usually go in has only two layers, so the darker lines is more or less out of the question.  Spacing character's eyes one eye apart I never actually tried, and since I tend to try and give pictures a more '3-dimensional' appearance (meaning one side becomes more 'flat' as the character turns further away from the perspective) but it's something I'll have to try.

As far as style not being an excuse, I agree with you to some degree.  Style isn't an excuse because style adapts, if you will, with time, and improves, if that makes any sort of sense.  I have been making some attempts at using a more realistic style but the 'manga style' if you'd like to call it that has been what I've been using since I was around ten, so it's nothing that I exactly expect I'll be making an immediate change in.

More mugshots that I'm actually using for something.



Ellimere.



Oddly enough, his name is a spoiler. xP



Freddy Krueger.  Well, why the hell not?  Was too lazy to do a body or colors, which is a shame, looking back on this.  Maybe I'll redo him some day.



Idle pose I did of the the first mugshot above.  Used Prpl's Regal sprite that he did quite some time ago, so it's not exactly mine, but hey.

Nameless vampire-thing.  Mostly just to spite Twilightards.


Forgot to put her here, apparently.


Reference of the elf above.  I screwed up pretty badly on the arm.



Flooded, treeless valley I did in Bryce.



More stuff in Bryce.



You guessed it.

Never heard of it.  But thank you any way, I suppose. O_O

I don't feel like digging up my old sprite gallery thread that probably never existed.



They don't exactly look like mannequins, but I did my best.  Female version of the black armor on the way, eventually.

I must agree with Lucas to some degree.
The female's shoulders are really broad for being female.
Also, the feet of the first male looks a bit twisted.

I love the design of the armours otherwise.

This is the most confusing critique ever.  ANY ONE ELSE WANT TO AGREE WITH SOMEONE!? XD

I was pretty lazy with the female version, but for the sake of realism; 'she' is supposed to be at least somewhat muscular.  The shoulders I'll get around to fixing some time, maybe, otherwise don't expect too much change.
