Things I need to improve on:
- My shading
- Getting my lines to be smoother.
- Style
Please add something if you must.
Update: For me summer has been really boring so far. I've done nothing but draw pictures. but I still can't post the because my scanner has not arrived yet. Can you imagine my sorrow? not being able to post works of art. Wahhhhhhh?

Nice start, at least you got the shape right. :p
The outlines are really messy though, try putting a bit more effort into it. If you're using Flash, try the smooth option.

I didn't notice this before, but the maple leaf on the flag is weird.
I mean, it's supposed to look like this.
http://www.kynoch-douglas-parts.com/pics/articles/main/canadian-flag.jpg
It's really wonky.
Also, the maple leaf should be somewhat bent, like the white part on the bandana.
And last, the white part w/ maple leaf would probably look better if it was over the middle of both eyes, rather than just over the left one.

Sorry I tried my best on the maple leaf. It's just the way I draw maple leafs.
Maple leafs have been known to have been drawn like mine, especially in cartoons.

1: Don't rush your pictures, even if it's a comic.
2: Comics actually have to have a story of some sort.

Akuryou13
6 May 2006, 13:25
the art was far below the standard you've set with your other images, and the story was just completely pointless and uninteresting. the second one may make the plot better, but that was by far the worst opening comic I've seen (well, the worst among the ones that were at least coherent :p )
edit: no offense intended, I'm just saying that the writing was rather poor, and I'm sure you can come up with something better.

Well... i guess that wasn't much of a criticism on my part, so i think i should apologize...
May i clarify why i think it's worse and how could you improve it... :)
Well, first of all, i think it's pretty clear that the outlines seem a bit shivering as if your hand was shaking when you drew it. I would try to find a way to make'em look smoother and cleaner.
Second, there seem to be some kind of blurry or smudge effect on some parts of the drawing (near the wound of the worm, for example). Seems like you kinda picked the wrong tool for a little while before you realise what you were doing... :p
Apart from that i think it's essencially decent. I'd also try to draw'em a tad bigger... like all of them the same size or bigger than the wounded worm. ;)

No apology needed.
I understand that my drawings weren't as good as before. I am just very busy these days with schoolwork so I don't get a lot of time to draw.
I manged to do some sort of weird animation today. As you can probably see I suck at making animations. I really need to learn how to animate in flash.

i agree, and u still could have low MHz Ram....

maveristef
15 Jun 2006, 17:06
Or maybe the reason that Flash crashes very often on my computer could be because I use my graphics tablet and pen for everything that i do in flash. I suppose the solution would be to not move and click the mouse cursor so fast and to be patient.:D

Akuryou13
20 Jun 2006, 08:46
uh...yes it did. I said that 512 MB isn't that much RAM, and he added to my point by including the fact that he could also have slow RAM, which would also impair his computer's speed and such like that.

Liketyspli
20 Jun 2006, 15:06
you know, i got 512 mbRAM and 330 MHz, Flash lags very bad if i make a big drawing... :(

Akuryou13
20 Jun 2006, 15:11
330 Mhz RAM? that's not that bad. perhaps you're lacking in other areas, or perhaps it's that you have the same as what's required for the program or something.

SupSuper
20 Jun 2006, 16:20
Well, it does when you know much about Hardware...Well it didn't the way you wrote it.
In any case, Flash is a vector-based program, and as such, having a huge drawing will rely much more on CPU power than on RAM since vector-based drawings are drawn by calculations (so the more detailed a drawing is, the more vectors it has, the more calculations it has to perform, the more CPU power it needs), as opposed to regular drawings (like imported bitmaps) which are just a whole bunch of pixels and thus will rely much more on RAM.

Well i never had problems with it, but since a long time ago, all my games got stuck and stuff, so i think my ram iis broken...
It's also the reason why i cant finish my thing for the drawin competition. it takes 5 minutes to fill a spot, so i gave up... :(

It won't be easy, I'll have to go running around my school asking to use a scanner, but inthe end it will all be worth it simply because my hand drawn pictures are 10 times better than the ones that I make with my tablet.

That's not half bad... you got talent... the only thing is that my bear isn't quite pale like that... that's almost a grey or something... i got more of a brownish beard... :)
It's quite nice nonetheless... Thanks for drawin' me, mate... :)
Error only has pupils, remember?
Actually i quit drawing Beardy (yes, he's name is Beardy, not Error :p) with pupil-only eyes. Even on the first concept of my sig i was pretty clear that the eye was a ***** to draw like that and other people could draw it in their own style... eventually it turned out a ***** for me to draw as well, so i changed it too... :D
P.S.: ***** is also known as the female of dog

Sometimes it's kinda unconscious... since we see a lot of pics from Slick and we think they all rock, we record that in our minds. So when later we try to draw something, it ends looking like his stuff. And sometimes people just try to rip off other people's style.
You should do the same thing i've done when i first got here... browse through most of people's galleries and i create your own style; one that is different from other people's. Yes, my style looks a bit like Cisken's style (and, lol, i only realized it after i came up with it) although it's different. So, yea, at this point, your style will likely end up looking, at least a bit, like somebody else's, but it gotta be different enough for people to recognize your work... ;)

Well... if you're saying that "well known" artists are boring and "not so well known artists" are cool cause the first ones hardly produce one or two pieces of art per month and the last ones make art all the time, then, ya, you're saying you prefer quantity over quality. You're saying you prefer a bunch of half bad pictures instead of one or two well drawn.
Which is your opinion and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. I only suggest you should, perhaps, realize that draw a good picture takes time... a lot of time. And... well... some people here have lives... not many... but some have... :p

I do not know why we are making such a big deal about the sleaves. I am not good at drawing clothes, robes, pants, shirts, etc. I can't draw clothes because I do not know how to draw the wrinkles on them effectively. I might read some " How to Draw Manga " books to improve my style.
