Thanks. It was a fun comic to draw, and helped to keep me sane in college. I keep meaning to pick it back up but I'm busy as hell these days.

Your shoops aren't bad.

You're still hiding the hands.

behind wings and swords and fire.

Try sketching a hand in a dynamic pose to get used to it. Feature it prominently in one picture.

What usually worked for me was to break a hand down into the various joints geometrically. Try drawing it super blocky, with a trapezoid for each joint and 3 trapezoids coming together for the palm. This will naturally mimic the creases and structure of a hand in motion, then go over it and smooth it into a more organic shape, using the blocky trapezoid hand for a skeleton. then ink and erase the trapezoids.

and you have a hand.

Also: your hands and feet are too small (another indication that you're uncomfortable drawing them) make them bigger.

That is generally how i do it, i know keep hiding the hands, it's an addiction. But i really wanted to have Alan holding fire, since he is so proficient at flaming people on here. Next one i'll get the hands out, just don't know who yet....

You should continue it. i have a comic series that i think i could've published, if i got it off from the first page. I'd also love to do a comic parody of G.net, but my comic style and anime-esque styles are two different styles, it's a bit hard to transfer back and forth.

A comic parody of Gnet would FUCKING RULE.

I thought that was Jack-of-blades from the first FABLE.

Also: Alan sucks. You should've drawn him holding his suckiness.

Drawing hands was something that took me forever to overcome. But i've discovered that what helps me is to actually scribble the joints. What I would recommend you doing to practice, is to take a mirror and lay your hand on it while holding something... start drawing scribbles where ever your joints are WITHOUT lifting your pencil from the paper. After you got the joints down then draw the rest of the hand...

You might not think this will really help much, considering you do mostly line/anime drawing. But trust me it will. Being able to sketch anything you see, is a very useful technique. Especially when it helps you practice dimensions.

Word, even if all you want to do is cartoons, drawing from life is insanely good practice. Gotta know the rules of drawing before you can bend them.

Would it be in bad form to post some sort of self caricature?

Murder.Of.Crows · 01-29-2011, 01:15 PM

No, why would it be? I would love to see other people's artwork.

ape descendant · 01-29-2011, 01:42 PM

Cool, It may take me a while to get all those wrinkles drawn out...

ssj_goku · 01-29-2011, 02:04 PM

how comme ur drawings don't haev any muscels? good drawings have muscles.

U'd KNOW THIS if u weren't a n00b. why don't u go look at some comics?

Murder.Of.Crows · 01-29-2011, 02:21 PM

I prefer the Hayao Miyazaki style or a Masashi Kishimoto style, rather than the Toriyama style your particular with. I also like to draw in a Jhonen Vasquez style, but those haven't been frequent in my attempts.

Okey, I finally got around to it...
