I'm thinking you should ink some of these.

I can't remember if I said this before, but:
JESUS. SHARPEN YOUR PENCIL. And maybe try drawing bigger. This looks fuzzy as hell.

Second: do not use eight lines when you can use one.
If your sketches are messy, fine , but your more finished stuff shouldn't have that scratchy look. If you're having issues with moving from a sketch to a finished piece, you need to draw lighter initially (or, transfer your sketch onto a clean page so you can rework detail).

Also let me teach you about shading.
You seem to be working more on form, which is good, but then as soon as you shade you're losing the feeling of 3d..ness because your markmaking is so flat.

This is kind of a poor example, but this might (might) illustrate what I mean:
[Image: hatching.jpg]

Just... ignore the entire left side. APART FROM THERE, I've tried to make the marks follow the curve of the shapes they're on. I can see a little of this in your work, but there's a lot of areas where it looks like you stopped paying attention and went into autopilot. DON'T DO THAT. It's probably pretty obvious that's exactly what I did in the above image at a couple points, and it ruins the illusion of depth

Also, use some more pencils. Everything is a midtone with you, and that will not do. Your light areas aren't that far removed from your midtones, and I can't really see any particularly dark areas at all. Either work up more tone with more hatching, or use a softer pencil. Or both. Softer pencils aren't usually very well suited to hatching because they smudge, so keep that in mind.

Also don't thicken the lines, just build up more tone. Also put in some more highlights. Like I said: less midtone. Seriously.

I love you.
I'm not going to respond to all of that, but it's the most useful thing anyone's told me maybe ever.
Print screening the post for reference.

I've never learned to use softer pencils because I never liked using pencils of different hardness and scale on one picture, but I suppose now is a good time to learn.
Thanks

Shroombert.

I like him.

RE: Galeria de Jesus Lizard - Gollum - 08-22-2010

Been sketching rough drafts for monsters I plan to sculpt as private miniatures in my ceramics/3d design class.
A beholder

Good Mr. Beholder takes shape in his design, and meets Gollum and a basilisk.

I think they'll be great dungeon buddies.

Then some... dragons.
I think I like the fiendish wyvern better than the fell drake or the noble coatl.

And some ideas for a few different varieties of Cthulhu spawn for various gaming genres.

RE: Galeria de Jesus Lizard - Gors - 08-23-2010

I don't even know how you're going to accomplish sculping those

so good luck

RE: Galeria de Jesus Lizard - Gollum - 08-24-2010

Can't imagine why.

RE: Galeria de Jesus Lizard - Chris2Balls [:B] - 11-06-2010

i prefer the second sketch over the first!

RE: Galeria de Jesus Lizard - Gollum - 11-06-2010

Oh.
What should I have done?
