I did a drawing of Hotaru, the picture isn't in full zoom so quality ain't that great. I messed up on the left arm (the one in a fist) and his facial features a bit, other than that it seems good. Oh and i think i sprained my wrist on this so please apprectiate this. :wink:

EDIT: For those who don't know i couldn't draw the feet becuase it didn't show them from the render = http://deadlydragon.mkfanatic.net/Hotaru.jpg
 
not bad but still needs some improvment.

1. Be a lot better with color

2. The shoulder pads should be higher.

3. The face is messed up

other then that it's good 6/10
 
O.o'

Erm... Oh nuts... This may take a while to write...

Face:

-You fell into the trap that most people do... The nose shape is drawn out. Don't draw the whole nose, just the nosterals and perhaps suggestion as to the shape of the end with ONE shortist line.
-eyes don't match height.
-Face is cocked at a wierd angle.
-Mouth doesn't even look close to a good enough shape...
-He has no neck
-Hair... Looks okay for a beginner attempt... But not okay for building up the shape of his head.

Body:

-Shoulders aren't wide enough.
-Doesn't look buff enough.
-good note... The top of the chest is about the right preportation... You began to loose that at the waist.
-The armour is not semetical (spelling?) enough. Good(ish) attempt at the armour overall but there is no wrapping to make it look like it curves around the body.
-Shoulder armour doesn't match each side. One sticks up further then the other.

Waist:

-Really lost it here. Everything is simply misdrawn.
-That cloth over the groin area has no suggestions as to how the material lies.
-The cloths curves on one side don't match it if there aren't any folds and you have two curved areas folding into each other.

Legs:

-Badly shaped from one end to the other.
-Good point... You tried angling the two legs and the effect wasn't half decent a attempt. The right leg could of been angled a little more to the left though...
-Wrap the armour around the leg, not just put it there.


Arms:

-Well overall apart from the lengths not being identical and the forarms not correct... This wasn't too bad an attempt.
-The hands? Well the fingers needed to be longer but they aren't too bad.
-Once again no armou wrapping around the body, just a straight drawn (flat) attempt.

Decs:

-Those flags thingys aren't great... The left one doesn't match the right one for the pole bits width. the makes on them aren't curved to look like they at a part of the detail of the flags... Their just straight lines.

Okay. I got lazy and just listed everything. Sorry.

I give you... 4/10. :?

You have some good points... So its not a total failure this picture. ou've got a lot of bad points though to work out.

Oh and anyone giving this guys bad marks... I'd like to see some of you guys stick a drawing up here for once... Some of you have... Many of you haven't. Those that haven't should put some up some time... Cause I'd love to see if your any better really. :roll:
 
Dude, unless you are picasso reincarnated, don't post hand art on angel's watch lol.
on the other hand, take heed, she knows her shit. i wish i could draw like her. although i wouldn't cos i hate anime art.
my major gripe is that it looks too copied. it's cool to use a reference but straight up copying is kinda cheap imo. I'll hopefully have my website up soon, and in it i'm gonna showcase a bit of my comic series, take a look
 
Yea this was an experiment becuase I don't normally post picks of anyone other than ninjas becuase i suck at drawing faces as you can see. This was drawn some time ago so quality isn't great as mentioned.... and angel damn how much time do you have on your hands?! And you are right this may be sucky and many others don't think its great but i haven't seen them even post artwork cept some people.....thanks for critisism i promised i wouldn't cry :cry:

Copying is the best way for a begining artist to start out... Even I started out just copying random stuff. It teaches you the basics of a character or what chracters are like and gets you used to how things plan out on a chracter. Trouble is you've got to move on sooner or later onto something else other then straight copying.
