**Sirio_Brozzi** · January 30th, 2007, 01:35 AM

Nice hand studies dude, doing some ref. from the masters i see.

Draw your own hands and feet next(you better!)

**Kman.** · February 1st, 2007, 05:42 PM

Hey folks thanks for your comments. You're too good to me D':

Wraith Assassin ;p

Sup K. Some advice mate for your last piece, it suffers from some contrast issues, the values could be pushed a bit to make the character stand out. I think the abs are also overly defined and a little oddly shaped, little niggles here and there. The piece could also be presented possibly in a more interesting angle, a 3/4 perhaps? The shading has a nice feel to it though, very delicate touch. Keep practicing mate, you'll get a hang of it.

Thanks again for your crit sirio.

Heres a little something I'm gonna start on tommorow.

Nice drawing. You going to go digital with that, or fine mediums? Cant wait to see how that turns out.

Its interesting that theres an owl there, a third element to the pic.

**Kman.** · February 21st, 2007, 11:59 PM

I think it got a little messy x_x

**Sirio_Brozzi** · February 22nd, 2007, 12:41 AM

Like the choise of sticking to an agle for shading mate. It is a bit sloppy but has a nice soft look to it.

Nice drawing. It kind of lacks a focal point though. It's obvious that the character in the foreground is probably the focal point, but the lighting doesn't do much to draw the eye to him.

**Kman.** · February 22nd, 2007, 09:38 AM

Thanks for your comments guys.

Sirio- Thanks, I pretty much always do shading at an angle, thanks to my drawing teacher.

Sepulverture- Yeah I agree, I shoulda pushed the value in the bg a little bit more to help bring the character forward. Thanks for your comment.

This.

Focal points can be established through the use of contrast (eg: black to white). Right now the parts that stick out are the clouds and my eye is drawn to them initially because the edges of the white clouds meet a very dark black. Pushing the values to create more contrast on the characters will bring them further into focus.

Your hand and feet studies are also quite good, keep them coming. You should also do still-lifes if you're into that, grab any object that interests you and set it on an area with good lighting and draw away.

**savant** · May 9th, 2007, 02:52 PM

Yo. Cool stuff you have here but you definitely need to add more contrast to your pieces to really pop out the form!
Keep drawing!

**Jabo** · June 19th, 2007, 08:26 AM

Hey Ksama. I was embarrassed to see that I haven't yet replied to your new sketchbook, seeing that you're still a regular in mine.

I'm really digging your work and your process is great. Painting might still look a little forced, but really nice strokes when drawing digitally (last post), and some rock-solid pencils. Love your femmes!

Cheers, see ya in either one's sketchbook.
