Hi Gang,

Turning this into my "official" artwork thread. Enjoy!

-SpinalCracka


OP:
Here is a half-crow/half-man thing. Threw him together during the holiday break. I hope you likey.

BTW: Do you guys do "sketch books" like on ConceptArt.org forums. That is, make a thread and just keep adding your art to it?

    YUP.

    Also I really like the clean linework and cool colors, though the missing lower half and cropped off wings feels like its keeping the piece from reaching its full potential.

    Yeah I started it as a doodle on good 'ole 8x11 computer printer paper. Half way through I saw it was coming out good and started kicking myself because I was running out of space.

    I'll write myself a reminder to start a "sketch book" thread.

    You can use this thread. Threads are for getting pointed critique, But people use them for a while. Its frowned upon to have multiple threads open for one person, so people who post often have what is essentially a sketchbook.

    We also have a doodle thread, which gets plenty of finished work posted in it, It just doesn't have the commitment of a thread.

    I like the birdman, I would try and finish off the bottom with some sort of touch.

    Meant to follow up with some recent sketch work but my HD crapped out :(

    Oh well thats what backup HD images are for! While I wait to get everything up and running....I give you pouty lipped, overly concerned guy. If I had to give it a caption it would be:

    Cool stuff, I really liked your submission for the contest.

    For your crosshatchy stuff, you may want to try to make the hatches define the form more, instead of just being angled at a set angle if you catch my drift. It'll make stuff look less flat and more like 3D shapes.

    I totally agree. Stepping back and looking at these now I see that. Time and time again I'm just dropping flat lines on curved surfaces. Thank you for pointing that out.

    I would suggest that you place a NSFW in your thread title, thankyou.

    The one in red pencil is gorgeous. Very nice!
    The one below comes off a little flat.
