Here's where you post up your WIP's or your finished products (things you've colored) for help and advice (or just adoration if you're that darn good! wink ).

Rules:


1. No flaming!

2. NO FLAMING! evil I really mean it. Sometimes what a person needs more than a slap to the face about what they need to improve is a spoonful of sugar and encouragement to keep trying; it helps no one if you only succeed in stopping them from trying again. Criticism is useful and appreciated, but not a whole page of it, nor a one sentence judgement call about the piece.

3. No flooding! One or two pieces at a time, please, don't post up your entire gallery sweatdrop .

4. NO reposting! NO.

5. Don't take credit for a drawing that you didn't do because you risk being banned not only from the guild, but from Gaia, too! Just note the lineartist in your post or a link to where they can be found, if you can. biggrin

6. Chatting is okay, just keep at least somewhat on topic. (No spam)

Okay, here's something I did recently for Chimerical the petshop (owned by Sarabi)

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

I'm mostly into doing smooth textures and long hair, so short hair and scales and fur and all that was really hard for me. I tried to mix it up with the texturing, and make it come off as sort of... "relaxed" but I think in a couple of places it maybe comes off as "messy" sweatdrop Thoughts? biggrin

I meant to post last night and didn't...

*deleted old WIP*
A really nice picture of Chad (Sado) from Bleach done by Raziya. I'm really proud of this picture so far, though. It's one of the better ones I've done so far, ne? blaugh Anyway, comments? Be harsh. I know I'm not really good, but I'm always looking for advice! Don't be afraid to say "The color's are so off, it makes him look like an alien" or something stupid like that. xd And don't ask why he's wearin' a pink shirt... I thought he looked hot in pink. xd

I'll finish the hair.... eventually.... gonk It's a pain in my a**, though. I can't get it right... I'm gonna work really hard tomorrow on it, so hopefullyI'll get it then. whee

I'm so slow when it comes to certain things... I've edited the picture some more, so the shadows are bigger. 3nodding
*deleted old WIP*
Better this way, or the first way? What do you guys think? I'm not done with the shirt or the hair (obviously) but I think it's coming along good. 3nodding

I like the second way better, makes it look more 3D-ish and realistic ^^

Yea, I agree. And I added some depth to the shirt, too.
*deleted old WIP*
And only the hair to do... gonk Does the shirt look okay, though? Does it look too plain? I was gonna do a wrinkle type of thing, but 1)I suck at wrinkles and 2) It wouldn't look right. Collars don't usually get wrinkly, right?

Collars don't get wrinkly, but the part on the shoulder next to the collar would. But it looks fine without them ^^
