Sum Stuffz I Have Donez.

[Colby]

Yeah, so here is a few of my drawings, I know they aren't as good as the art masters in here but that's ok because I have my entire life to develop my skills. I just wanted to see how some of you who have seen my other stuff though I was progressing. See the stuff in the upper right is the most recent, it's really just random stuff from my sketchbook this year, some is from the beginning and some from recent weeks.

Nice drawings, i would have to say try make your characters look less stiff. Right now it looks like something of a Cutout animation.

Oh dont forget legs have muscle too

Yeah, how do I make them look less stiff? Like, I can't find any sites on that sort of thing, and I can't really afford the books. =/

I cant really think of ways.. But one way is to analysis other drawings, preferebly the more advance poses. Or even look at real life pictures too.

I guess the pose is the most important bit, Some of those action poses that you drew, i just dont feel the 'power' that is portrayed. adding a twist in the waist would do justice in a number of those drawings.

Example:


You should also think about your poses first, compare my pose to yours and try do both in real life, which one feels more effective?

Yes, this is what needs to be shown. Even though, these drawings are very nice.

I like on the bottom of one of them, you have a drawing of some sort of shotgun.


would have been nice in the vote. i would have voted for it.

[Lottery]

yes, very nice!

All you have to do to make your characters less stiff is 'bend' the joints a little more like Ziwo showed you there with that manikin. The more you bend the joints, the more dramatic it looks. For example, if you wanted to make someone do something like a flying punch, bend the knees alot more, the back(spine) should be more perpendicular to the ground and the neck should be bent lower so that the shoulder of the punching arm covers the ear. (idk if you got all that, but just an example)

Sometimes the best thing to do is to sketch out a few different poses. I have two books, but the best thing to do is to 1. Compare your art to others and 2. Practice

Yeah, it's called the Mach 9 Turbine Shatter Blaster

Or M9 TSB, it was originally for the weapon contest but I couldn't get it to a scanner in time for the deadline.
