Description I wanted to start drawing more serious themed pictures so I decided to draw Optimus.

I am happy with a lot of things, and unhappy about several. Mostly this pic has shown me the areas in which I should be focussing on improving.

Hands, poses, and proportions.

BabeMause In reply to Transformergirl [2007-12-16 13:00:07 +0000 UTC]

Yes, his hips are little bit too rounded... But again, who said he can't have nice hip line?

Or no second look, maybe it's actually his lower legs that are twisted....

Whatever the case, I think he looks really nice, and I think you did just fine with his hands. Really.

I think he looks excellent. Maybe a bit twisted in the hips (They don't seem to line up with either his hips or his chest. But maybe that's just me. I mean I can't draw very well, so what the heck do I know? )

Wanna slap some color on him, though...

Yeah, I got half way through inking him when I realized he wasn't cymetrical.

Oh, bummer. That's what I like about coloring in Photoshop. Infinite erasing opportunities!

Optimus does have a rather well way of emitting seriousness.

All things considered, I think this came out pretty well. The hands look fine to me, and who doesn't have trouble with porpotion and poses?

XD Yeah. Proportions are hard to work with when you're using a very bixy figure, but you just gotta keep it up until you get better.

You and me both on Poses, though. They're MURDER... D:

Hands? I can't draw a good hand to save my life. Don't feel too bad since loads of artists say that hands is the most difficult thing to draw.

TF hands are worse!

miraibaby In reply to Transformergirl [2007-12-15 22:18:28 +0000 UTC]

Ahh, they're not that bad... I mean, they're basic human hands, list with boxes.

You'd think that, but it never ends up that way with me.

miraibaby In reply to Transformergirl [2007-12-15 22:57:21 +0000 UTC]

D: That sucks. I love drawing TF hands, I think their boxy shape makes them easier to draw than human hands.

Transformergirl In reply to miraibaby [2007-12-16 00:00:39 +0000 UTC]

Maybe it's just the scale I draw them at.

miraibaby In reply to Transformergirl [2007-12-16 00:21:18 +0000 UTC]

Maybe... Well, the size of the hands to the head are fine... so...I see some slight proportion problems with the tips of the fingers, but other than that.. M'eh.

What I'm doing now, to perfect my hands, is to just draw them. I look at other models and, as of right now, all I'm really doing is drawing them over and over and over again in different positions.

I really should be doing that.
