First off, I just want to say beautiful work, very nicely done! I love the colors, shading, and detail that you used.

One thing you may be able to improve on is drawing figures in perspective. I've done a lot of figure drawing myself and one thing that really helps is to start with a rough stick figure to put body parts in their proper proportions and perspective. Then you form your contour lines based off the stick figure. This is especially important if you're drawing from your head without a visual reference. This website here has some good explanations and advice how to make your figure look more three dimensional. http://www.learn-to-draw.com/more/figure-drawing/figure-drawing0413.shtml

Hope this advice helps. I can't wait to see more! :)

E: I see that earlier in your thread you were working on perspective and made some really good progress. Maybe just try to work more with human figures. Try using the cylinders that the artist on the website suggests, that can really help with getting the perspective down. For some reason the shield arm on your character seems off in perspective. I think it's a combination of the way the shield angles in (it makes it look like there's not enough room for a large arm like on his other side, it would have to be a very skinny arm) and also the positioning of his shield arm. Drawing a base figure before painting anything really helps to keep proportions in line. :P


yes! I am going to be working on this. I need to get back to drawing because my perspectives and proportions are awful

I will update that as well with my new projects, far after I've abandoned this place

I think it's really sick just wish that tree with all the vines had some texture.
