Thats really cool, Nice work dude.
It's ok, I think you would do better if you were working from a picture.
You could also try looking in the mirror when drawing.

not bad, the shoulders are a little high, and so is his chest. ALso his teeth run unevenly with the rest of his face, they jut out too much. I like the coloring, simple, but it loks like cell shading.

Bleed, stop trying to turn every artist into a clone of yourself please. There are other styles of drawing besides realistic.

Here we go again. Yo, he's just giving advice and it's Mr_Elusive's choice to take it or not. He's not telling him to change his style, he's just giving Mr_Elusive some tips so he can improve his skills.

The pic is ok. The mouth is a little too out of the face, and it looks like if the nose is touching the teeth, the cheek bone should be more pronounced.
Keep practicing, you have talent.
2.5/5 Dragon Points.


Peace.
I'm just trying to help, some people appreciate that. wink


What is it that you want me to say?

I take, and give advise just like anyone else.

Looking at the drawing, It looks to me like he is going for realism.

If you were working from a picture, I would say to keep practicing. You do have the ability.

The main thing that sticks out to me is the mouth, and the nose. Work on aligning things a little better.

Taking advice from a superior artist is never a bad thing. Taking advice from an inferior artist is good as well provided they know what they are talking about. Bleed is offering a tried and true technique that has been used for a very long time. Most people just starting to progress as artists just don't think to use reference material or "A Mirror" when drawing.

If you or someone else chooses not to listen, fine, you don't have to, but why complain about it? I have a feeling it's because you have nothing to contribute therefore you just latch on to something insignificant for the outrage factor.

Or I could be wrong

Now that you mention it, I suppose you are wrong.
Too bad the site doesn't allow me use the Thead-Lock code, don't want this to turn ugly.

Hey, great picture! I'm a big Baraka fan, so it's always nice to see some recognition.

Someone mentioned the shoulders, I don't see anything wrong with them. He looks appropriately muscular, but realistic.

The face is somewhat mutated, considering what he is, I actually think it looks appropriate. If it were a human, there'd be issues, but the directions are appropriate enough to make it appear as though he's just a distorted individual.

It's a simple picture, but it's effective. I'd be interested to see you take a stab at something a bit more complex. Maybe a full body splash image or something like that.
