thief

[robotnik]

I shall post a picture. That I started about 1 day ago.

It is supposed to a thief character leaping from a building he has already purloined of its valuable contents. There are to be some aggrieved ‘guards’ or otherwise ‘inhabitants’ of said building, in the background, gesticulating with large swords.

The location I guess is some kind of Arabian township. But I’m not too sure, as the main guy looks a little oriental.

Anyway, I just wondered if anyone had anything to say about this.

I’m afraid the whole thing might just a bit static and rubbish.

Dastardly deprecation, or any other input is welcome.

That's some strange wind doing on his ribbons. I think the middle ribbon bumps need to be less extreme. It looks kinda like his chest has a big hole instead of a strong shadow.

i dont mind the ribbons because i think stuff that flows off the body should have some dynamic movement (eg. superman's cape) but yes.. his body does look like it has a big hole. grab some of the skin colour you used and go over it, to blend it in more. or just do a less extreme fade from light to dark. otherwise- cant wait to see it!

With the ribbons i was trying imagine how they'd react if, as he falls through the air, he were to move his arms in a stabalizing motion. I figured they might look a bit like that.

You are right about the shadow. I worked a little on fixing it...

but i dont think i much like this picture now. i feel i could have set it all up in a more dynamic way.

maybe i'll try it again
