Description I drew this guy yesterday but I'm not sure if its worth finishing, I quite like the idea and character but I'm not sure about the anatomy and perspective and since I don't have any real life friends who know something about anatomy and all that art stuff I'm posting this picture so you guys can judge :3 please tell me about the mistakes here or what should I fix to make this picture better

I love the pose and it looks magnificent the only things I see wrong is I looks like the tail just cuts off and the neck looks a little long but I love it and great job

Tami-tsuki [2009-12-20 01:19:48 +0000 UTC]

well, honestly, I think according to the perspective you've used, the neck is too long and the head is just a little bit too big, unless it has an extremely long neck and a big head xDD

hmmm..... na pewno trzeba przesunąć postać troche bardziej na środek. żeby nie było wrażenia, że się nie mieści na kartce. myślę, że byłoby ładnie gdyby klatka piersiowa i ramiona były zwrócone przodem, nie w 3/4 jak masz teraz. tak żeby lewe łapa postaci była widoczna na szyją.

tylko to miejsce mi nie gra, reszta jest dobra
o własnie, jeszcze ogonek. narysuj jego mały(lub większy, jak tam wolisz) fragment po drugiej stronie skrzydła

It's a nice flowy pose, but I think the head and neck are a little off. Were you trying to make them pop because of the perspective?
Other than that a cute, wonderful little sketch

I feel like it's amazingly done. When it comes to creatures such as this, it's hard to judge correctness in anatomy. I feel it is worth finishing and I can't wait for you to do so.

so you're like me, not a whole lot of friends huh? well don't worry, senor fly guy's got your back.....now as for the anatomy, the face, wings, legs and paws look fine but the body is kinda odd. where were you going with this when you drew it, were you thinking of a dragon/serpentine-type creature or what? the tail also looks a bit off too. the comments about the eyes, i don't know what they're talking about, the eyes and face are fine. you mess with the eyes and you'll make it worse. trust me, the less you look at the face and the more you look at the body and you'll see what i'm talking about. but i ask 1nce again: what were you thinking of or going when you created this magnificent creature?

Quinneys In reply to Dragonianfire [2009-10-16 08:15:58 +0000 UTC]

I want to but its quite hard for me as I'm self-taught artist, I don't have anyone here to correct me or tell me how to draw correctly here D: its much easier to learn when someone is sitting next to you and tells you what to do D: right now I can only depend on books and friends from dA. but thats a big help too!

SapphirexKitsune [2009-10-13 07:14:01 +0000 UTC]

My only complaint would be that the long length of the neck seems to throw the proportion of everything else off.
The wings also seem a tad bit too small.

But that could just be me.

Quinneys In reply to SapphirexKitsune [2009-10-16 08:18:09 +0000 UTC]

yeah.. the neck bugs me too
but the wings were supposed to be small, I wanted the dragon to look a bit cartoon-ish, but in the end it came out too realistic >_>

SapphirexKitsune In reply to Quinneys [2009-10-19 14:46:02 +0000 UTC]

It's still lovely though. With the wings and without claws, this dragon kind of seems more gentle...and more cuddly.

ClairClairSky [2009-10-13 06:01:42 +0000 UTC]

It's good! It's just that the wings look way too small to support the body.

MikaOokami [2009-10-13 02:47:37 +0000 UTC]

This is really cool
I think it's really good, except for the wings. But, don't take my word for it, I don't know squat about anatomy.

I like it like this, myself

Shirracco [2009-10-13 02:38:34 +0000 UTC]

Ooh! I agree some angles are off, but I <3 the design! He's like a cross between Haku from Spirited Away and the Luck Dragon from Neverending Story.

hinata4590 [2009-10-12 23:26:01 +0000 UTC]

This piece is amazing, but the only thing i see is that the wings need to be bigger on the back. That's the only thing I see.

Miyok-Chan [2009-10-12 22:59:21 +0000 UTC]

this is really amazing!! but the wings on his back kinda feel like they aren't really moving(?) cuz the wings on the tail looks more in movement while the ones in front don't really look that way....they are very well done tho! but needs a bit of movement to them. and on the neck it looks a bit smaller going down from the head maybe make the neck a bit bigger (not to much tho!). and have to agree with saphire-shadows as well...
Other wise I hope this gets finished!!! its really awesome!!!!!

earthsea-23 [2009-10-12 19:36:46 +0000 UTC]

It's a good start, but it looks like you are trying too hard to fit it into the whole page and it would look good if you cropped the bottom especially. But if you're just doing this just because, then it's fine.

aquanoxfox [2009-10-12 19:22:30 +0000 UTC]

i agree with previous comments about the neck, it looks a bit awkward. it seems like, if the neck really were that long and at that angle, the head would not be positioned like that. i feel that it should be looking more downwards... also, the toes seem to be curled excessively, they make him look like he's uncomfortable. finally, his back leading into his tail seems to dip down too far. if his tail went lower before going up, or if you raised his rear end in general, it might look a little more smooth...

overall, i love the idea of thc character. nicely designed, with a cute expression on his face. i hope you decide to finish this!!

this is really cool and the only 2 things i can spot are his eye is twisted a little and his hind legs should be just a little bigger and fatter

I love seeing your finished products, but one must wonder if they're magic or real! The rough draft/sketch is always a pleasure to see and then to compare to a finished piece. You can really sense creation at work here, where the lines aren't firm and still finding their way into varying positions on the page, either in solid lines or textures, outlines or detail lines, etc etc.
Your work is always great!!! ^_^ Glad to see it.

I'm too lazy to write a critique and i doubt i could get 100 words in XD so i'll just write stuff here ._.'

I love the design <3 It's very cool, and if ya add markings, it'll look even awesomer >:3 anywho, your perspective is great, and i mos certainly love that face. I find it very captivating O_o Your wing anatomy is very nice, I envy it greatly :3

Great job, i definitely think you should finish it ^^
