Dark grayish blue VS. Light yelloish brown

Done. Ironic that those are about the characters' native colors anyway.

i would argue that for perspective, then the top of the guys face/snout should be brighter than the 'lower' parts of the image

basically - what is, perspective wise, closer to the viewer should be highlighted more, and that which is farther away should be a little more shaded

but its just my opinion. the coloring itself is awesome - but very flat

Comics are about storytelling, conveying a narrative through images, so my advice would be to work on that with the figural relationships and backgrounds being used in the service of the story.

This page 1 works okay as it is, but consider how the composition of the page and the panels directs the reading order.

In every panel, the character is facing to the left, whereas the reading order goes to the right. I would try reversing the angle of the scene in the final panel so she is walking off to the right, as a cue to go to the next page.

If you haven't read Scott McCloud's books on Understanding, Reinventing* and Making Comics, then I'd suggest starting there.

*Ignore the chapter on the Internet and web comics, as its obviously been outdated very quickly.

Been trying new things.

I've been busy today. so what do you all think?

I didn't get past the first stanza. "In my bones I sense great might"?

In my reading of your poem I sense a great stretch to rhyme.

However, it should be noted that by sticking to the OP's pose the pic has an utter lack of flow. There is an entire ruleset about how you could handle composition, anatomy and model posing so as to both compensate the weight of the model and of the figure relative to the canvas, to make the whole pic more "flowy", thus more attractive, readable and easier on the eye.

Well, I finally got around to drawing again, and... yeah, I still need quite a bit of help with this.

Just gonna bump this because I'd still like a bit of critique on the last pic, seeing as it's the last one I've finished.

>For future pics: Guessing it doesn't have to be furry/porn but it helps?

This board is for criticism of all kinds of art, not just furry stuff. Though, yes, we're primarily focused on furry stuff.

Why are they hovering slightly above the wall? And the girl on the left has some seroius problems with her legs, go look at some real people and see how their legs look.
And the the colouring is just awful, I mean this is on the level of a kindergarten crayon drawing, it shouldn't be on the internet. Put on your fridge instead, prefeably using a big magnet to cover up most of it.

A few tips:
When using colored pencils as a medium, try to smudge them so you don't end up with that "crayon drawing" effect.

The naruto headband thing is a bit overdone.

Try out one of those pose-able wooden models to get the scale right.

To be frank, you need a LOT more practice, but even the best artists take time before they get good. Look at Chalo or San Renard's early work. Don't get discouraged, get better.

Generally everyone is an amature artist until we get a few years somewhere using our talents in a professional environment (Ie workforce/industry). It's once we're there we get the chance to become professionals. :P

I've had a look through your gallery. You've got some nice things but they seem to varey between each piece. Most things seem inconsistant with the each other.

One of the main things I can see you improving on is your anatomy and your work on perspectives. A lot of your characters have skin that is extremely rounded and don't feature any 'pinching' and so on. I also see a few problems with Symmetry involving mass and other things.

Thanks! I find alot of inconsistancy in much of my work and find it rather frustrating at times. Anatomy and perspective are things I am always working on improving but I like to hear how they turn out from piece to piece. Thanks for the honest critique, I am definitely going to work on these areas.

Unfortunately this board has been neglected for a bit now, however I'll go ahead and use my extremely limited extensive knowledge of the art process to help you out a bit!

First off, her left foot seems to be attached at a somewhat odd angle, though on second look I can see what you were doing, but because the ankle is so small it's hard to see it.

Secondly IIRC, most animals have 4 toes, not three.

This also leads me once again to her left foot, there's a distinct lack of detail in the separation of the toes as you used a simple curved line to distinguish them where with his feet there is some actual detail.

Generally there's a lack of detail on the hands and feet - don't try to skimp on them because they're difficult. The more you work on them the better you'll be at drawing them. I heavily discourage hiding details, it's a bad practise to get into, try to draw hands and feat as much as possible.

Legs are not completely straight, anatomically speaking they should be slightly rounded and the joints should be rounded on a curve as well, no matter how big the character is, fat or muscular.

I can't be positive because it changes per scanner, but you're either doing your lineart by pressing down very hard with a thin pencil (HB) or you're using a ballpoint pen. In traditional work, your pencil is supposed to do a rough out (while applying as little pressure as possible), your pen is supposed to be doing the final touches. I would suggest an artline pen as they give a real fine strong stroke, ballpoint pen strokes look like absolute crap when they get scanned.

Your colouring technique is really bad, I can clearly see in which direction you're drawing in. You need to stick to one direction when you colour, otherwise it will look horrible. Make sure as well that you're getting as much colour from the pencil, white lines from quick shading show and they look bad. Press down on the pencil and go slow.

>>374

Yeah, I'm not always too set on how I color, I'm trying to work on that.

Also trying to work on anamoty(spelling?) too.

Be patient with me, I'll get there.

>>377

Sorry if I came off a little condescending or anything, It's nice to have a bit of honest criticsm now and then.
