Seanny's Character Drawing Dump.
Well, i did a drawing, the focus of which was to practice using my tablet and getting a hang of coloring.
Based on ....

I give you guys...
Wow... photobucket's preference to convert everything to jpg is kinda annoying... but here ya go.^_^;
Thanks for looking. :heart:
Re: Seanny's Character Drawing Dump.
Hoping a double post is okay with threads like these.
Regardless... I'm still going at it. I've spent a lot of time trying to learn how to draw in perspective and at various angles... and got nostalgia for my old I/L Mage soooooooo~
Hope to improve at that, as well as coloring (man that made my brain hurt.)
Re: Seanny's Character Drawing Dump.
Long time no post.
Haven't given up though! I'm still practicing.
My friend was streaming herself drawing some characters and i realized I hadn't posted anything here in a while.
Spent the last hour or so of my night afterwards putting this together, I might finish it up and color it tomorrow.
I still have the feels for I/L Mage.
Though after re-reading the posts here, i should really draw something a bit more refined and detailed just to really test myself, I always think cartoony when I draw maple by nature... but bringing it up to the next level really has potential and all.

What I really like about these is that you can very clearly see progress, which is always interesting. My suggestion to you to help improve your work is to do some anatomy studies. In learning skeletal structure, proportions, etc. - the rules - of how a realistic human body looks and moves, you also learn how to bend the rules.
If any of that made sense. Anyhow, keep at it, I find it's always very interesting to watch a person progress like this!

And thank you as well! Makes me smile when people point out improvements.
You do have a point with the anatomy studies. All of my practice so far is with pictures of real people, but I retain very little detail when i actually draw from my head. I'd really like to have the skill to draw without reference like what some artists are capable of so pretty much all of these here are done without them. As a way of checking my progress to that goal.
I've had a ton of artist friends drill into me to use references more. I should do one with ref in a more realistic style for here!
Also... what would you consider a good way of doing such a study? consistent sketches of the skeleton and movement ranges or full on refined drawings... or even blind contour? (Which i love btw, i avoided it cause of awkwardness for a long time but i think its really helping me see better since i started this year!)
Edit: Finished that Coloring!
