Critiques


:iconazeila:
To start off, this is really good. I adore the bright colors. They really make this catch your eye.
I think that it would be a good idea for you to get a better scanner, because it can really make or break your artwork.
And kudos to you for adding a background. I can tell you put a lot of effort into that.
I love the girl. Her face, body, and hair are excellent. I love the way you drew the wind blowing her clothes and hair around. Its really pretty. And her face is so beautiful. :heart:
I can tell you have a little more trouble drawing guys, as most people do. Those darn men. You're well on your way though. I respect that you actually gave him lips as well. A lot of people dont even try to give thier men lips. I would suggest studying the anatomy and hands of men, as I would say thats what you're struggling on the most. Everything seams a little squished to me. But dont think that you didn't do an excellent job, because you did. I'm just being picky. :nod:
Anyway, great work. This is really stunning. :)

Wow the colors are nice and vivid :D I can see a lot of effort here. The woman is very beautiful :D I like her hair
I'll give you the best critique I can >_<
The man's anatomy and proportions need some work... His arm looks odd, although I know its because it's going away from the "camera"
The neck looks strangely round in the front... you can find a reference and compare it. Here's one I nabbed from google images in a sec: [link]

The perspective on the buildings is unclear, especially on the one with the round window. Maybe it's because of the pole, but it looks flat.

Your light source is clear for half of the picture. When I look at the shading on the buildings, it looks like the light is coming from the left of the picture. Then when I look at the man and woman, I can't really tell anymore. When I look at the ground directly behind them, the shadows make it seem like the light is coming from a little to the right. Try to keep the light source as consistent as possible.
Besides that I think the shading was well done with the combination of cross hatching and just coloring it in

It's also a bit busy... I can't tell whether to focus on the people or the background. What should the viewer be focusing on? Try to convey that through the picture

There are plenty of things you can work on, but I think you have the ability to do it :) I like the coloring and a lot of the details you put in.
Backgrounds are pretty hard, so cookies for you for doing such a detailed one XD The best practice for backgrounds would be drawing what you see... as in going downtown or looking out the window and drawing what's there. The best way to learn to draw something is to get out there and actually draw it, whether it's a person, animal, plant, or building!

Sorry I made it so long. I'm trying to be as helpful as possible XD It's hard to take a lot of criticism too, so best of luck

:wow: this is the first very detail critique! Thank u:hug:
Yeah, looking at it now it can see your point, but then again i was self taught so i;m still learning. I really didn't have a focus point persay, :shrug: but i guess u can say it the Lillian and Ash.
I will take what u say to heart and work on those problems, men are a bain of my drawing exsistance. I usually only draw women.:lol:
So once again, thank u very much:D :heart:
Forgive my spelling;)

color version come out really nicely! Great job!
I like here hair and face!
:iconmiserylolita:
XD yeah men are hard to draw for me lol... i guess most women start out drawing girls :p I've heard people say men are easier to draw, others say women are easier to draw
but it mostly depends on which you learned to draw first XD
Wow! Self-taught, that's pretty amazing :D
