Looks good
Looks nice, dud
Thanks!
Watch the foreshortening on his right leg though, the foot seems too small.
just a wee bit
You're probably right
when I was making her*, I imagined the perspective to be much more pronounced.
(Loving the background work though)
I'm just starting with the background, there's almost nothing there yet
Aye but the lighting on the clouds is nice
thanks! I can't wait to color them
@SneekiBreeki that's a lot of improvement in just one year, keep up the good work 👍
I am fake russian, that is true.
Fun valentine, huh?
Funny.
Fun would be Весёлый, not Забавный.
Altho there's no 100% eqivalent translation to word "fun" in russian.
funny is definitely Забавный or Смешной tho.
Yeah that sounds bout right
Even tho i'm a fake russian, i'm pretty good at pretending to be a real one.
let me fix that with my ultra weeb avatar
what do you think?
: )
awww
seems like a magnet for head pats!
thanks : D
that was my intention
Probably because people were making the art get lost in shitposting. That should be less of an issue now with our new gallery manager. 😃
@O.K It looks good, but i have one suggestion, if you're interested in a bit of criticism.
@Bahrack Obamcuddah that's probably better placed in one of the general or politics channels than the art channel
battle ready
Ping me or <@&543752921234276382> if art is drowned by shitposts, they will be sorted asap. <:maulerHeart:339124719553085440>
It makes me confused.
Make it simpler, my mindbrain hurts.
@n0vitski of course I'm interested.
This is the main reason I'm posting my stuff here. There are bound to be people more experienced than me, and they may have some really good advice. : )
@O.K So, about this piece, i'd suggest adding more color in the darkest shadows, since they just look black and grey. It's passable on the clothes, since they are pretty desaturated, but on the skin it looks really dead. You did a good job with reddish shadows on the face, but the hands and the arms - not so much. I suspect you're using multiply layer for shadows, and if so, it's really not a very great idea, since in the darker areas it tends to just kill the color, no matter how saturated the layer itself is. I would actually recommend for the most part to work with color in normal and not employ other mixing options for anything except for finish. Also, don't use the same hue for the shadows as you do for the lights, make it a bit colder, or a bit warmer, it will look more natural.
Overall, black/grey shadows = bad, saturated shadows = great
