2D character : AWA

I think you need to relink your picture, can't see it.

Hello there!

Mastakojo, i think that this is a download limit on your site..
I can't see the pictures too.
Try to move it elsewhere, ie. other free webspace provider/server.

I really like the face / head area, but that's about it. The proportions get all odd after the neck down.

The shoulders seem to be too squared, she has no trapezius muscles, even for an anime or cartoon character there should be something. Unless that is the style you are going for :)

The hands are both quite small and she doesn't seem to have a wrist for that watch to stay on.

Her stomach seems to twist in a perculiar way, I can't really describe what's wrong but somethign does look a bit off, also the writing on her shirt over her breats are good, but on her stomach then the lettering is facing the viewer too much in my opinion.

I hope I wasn't too harsh, we're all here to learn and have fun, and I really do like her expression on her face :)

I would only recommend going to fineart.sk if the server is not overloaded and get some good anatomy references. One really easy way for poses and anatomy is just take a picture of someone you know in a pose then draw from that :)

Okay, I can see it... 3 times.
So I took care of 2 of them ;)

jeroentje, U can see.... how come some of us still can't see it?

Thx for the comment, its not too harsh, i knew something was wrong with the proportions, but didnt know exactly what. Probably cuz I did not make a very detail sketch, and drawing on computer is a nightmare for me. I think ill restart from skratch if the whole things look weird... :annoyed:
What should i start with if im a newbie in computer graphics ... with some cartoonist stuff or real-life portraits??

Jaucifer, we are in a "blocked region", and we can't view the site..

I read this on page:
"Visitors to free accounts from these regions will not be permitted to view your site's content._ Upgrading to Platinum will allow all visitors, including these regions, to view your site."

What a f*ck.

this suck man............

Since I do not know what kind of images you plan on making your career I would recommend combining both world. Stick to the same sort of style for the out line and such, but go for a more realistic skin tone and try for realism in the shading.

There's is never a problem going straight for the harder stuff (like realistic portraits) at the beginning, it's just you have to be prepaired to take a lot longer time than most people would take to do it, and be willing to start over or what have you.

Anyway best of luck, and this is just my own meandering self talking, so don't take any of it too seriously. :)
