Description Well, this took awhile, I might finish the shading later... very later, practice new techniques or something.

I might make this a new commission option, this is actually easy to do, so it will be cheap.

By the way, the new character's nick name is Bubblegum.

I see what you did there with the background. Looks neat and collective.


The characters look great. I really like that you have managed to keep them so different from each others, despite the fact that they're in the same style. And I absolutely admire your attention to details. I seriously want to know where you get your ideas

On a side note, I might have to agree with *ToTo088 about the eyes. I'm not thinking about the iris itself, but the whole eye - eyelids and everything. I notice that I end up looking at characters with little variation regarding expression, and expressive eyes can make the difference between a static and a dynamic looking character. Of course, the body language has a part to play too.


Besides that, I think it's a good idea to make this a new commission option.  

And I really want to see more of Bubblegum. whatever her real name is...

I'm afraid I can't bring out expression of any kind, I'm just no good at it

Then, maybe it would be a good idea to practice?

Beginning with simple doodles would be a good start. Perhaps mirroring your own expressions. Or look at what others have done etc.

Fight it!

If you see a chance of improvement - take it. 


I would not have taken extra classes of art if I didn't have the intention of improving

Athena-Tivnan In reply to KB-concepts [2013-08-15 21:49:49 +0000 UTC]

I was thinking around 100 to 200 points per character, they would be shaded and highlighted of course.

Thats quite a nice work there, but, all honest, you should seriously work in your eyes cuz all of them look exactly the same just in a different color, just like the time you did the pic of the Zhengs, in the long run they start to look like zombies or something like it D: no offense of course, you should start to put a bit more work in them, make them different to give them more life, putting that aside, all of the pics are very well executed, just polish that part because its true that the pose and char details are important, but its the face details what will truly give life to your pics owo

Thanks, I'm not exactly sure how to fix them, it's possible that the reason their eyes look lifeless is because I didn't add sun or reflected light to their eyes.

yes, but also, you always repeat the same pattern and position to your eyes, like just copy paste, i know its a pain in the ass but in case that you just copy paste the eyes, draw them individually and practice eye details, it doesnt seems like it but the Eyes are one of the most important thing and if we laze out with that we can ruin a character's drawing D:
well, good luck with that X3
