Yup Scott I went for innocent,thanks. ;D
Now Cpbell,please never "shut-up" as you put it.I am posting to this forum because of the wealth of knowledge on it.You do not have to be an artist to critique art and frankly I think your observations are spot on!1) I am working hard on faces and that with that angle I did myself no favors 2)Trap is off. I was trying so hard not to go too big I vexed instead of caved…lol. 3) Legs are presently my nemesis and I am building a photo-archive to help myself(and Jebs anatomy drawings :))I am presently over-inflating them and creating a pumpkin effect.
While I have had some kind words from the local(super)talent I have also recieved a lot of great advice and I know I have a long road ahead. I drew this with only a overweight co-worker to model. Very funny, but this helps you find out where your memory and reality are not connected.Ok I am rambling now…sorry.My point-Please keep prviding input when ever you can. I think every artist,established and hack,is better for it.

You would think that as old as our language is it would have stronger words than "thank you". Jedediah and Amazon Lover, thank you, I appreciate your help very much.

Thanks guys. Now Amazon…amazon,amazon,amazon.Good God you have a educated eye. The eyes and cheeks are driving me nuts also.How can you pick that off? I redid them after the fact in Photoshop,hated them. Redrew them again,touched them up in Photoshop and then said "oh the hell with it." Sometimes a drawing demands its own look I guess.She has grown on me ,with her square jaw and solid cheek bones but I am drawn straight to those eyes and cheeks everytime I look at her. I actually jumped into another sketch to keep from erasing a hole through her head…lol. More work needed obviously…

[Cindy Tortio]

Bravo,great work!The more I see of the Poser work the more I want to lay down my pencil…lol. I think your model in the ballet pose is very good. The effect of all that muscle in that pose is just wild. Can I ask how long you have been studying this software?

[Cindy Tortio]

Oh thats very cool!I just bought Poser myself and its amazing how powerful the software is. How long has it taken you to get to this level and are you self taught? Angel,do you ever do any sketches to develop these characters,could you post some? I would love to see the development,or do you work strickly in the software? Sorry for all the questions,curiosity of the beginner… ;D

Wasted your time? You better be kidding. I absolutly love it. I printed it as a reference for my foray into coloring. The highlights really give the muscles depth and form.Its stunning how much mass you portray with the amount of lines laid down. My eye may not be as sharp as the pro's on this board but I think your time was well spent. Thanks for the great post.

[Cindy Tortio]

Thanks for the kind words and yes I love it here.The critiques and comments have been very helpful. I think I want to try a growth sequence next.

[Cindy Tortio]

Wow…just wow. I want to thank you for the spot on critiques. This is what I hoped for.Thank you so much. It can be very difficult noticing anatomy problems and such as a drawing begins to suck you in.Even stepping back or flipping it does not help sometimes. The leg work is something I am struggling with and the man in the hammock has bothered me. The hips…ugh. Now I see it. The belly ring does look like a necklace..haha.

Happy Birthday Amazon Lover from me! An upset PowerGirl in all her glory. A hard night of drinking and a silver tongued man from the janitorial staff I believe….. ;D I tried to impart anger in her body language but it may not have worked..lol. The bent wrist and such. I tried to give her a bit of a trashy feel with the panties half down and a bit of hormonal hair as well.I cleaned it up in Photoshop and the idea was to shade and color it as well. Thats why I went with a line art version.Well I just had my cocky rump handed to me. Color is several months away,hahaha.Line art it is.That program is scary,much to learn!I may take another run at this ,it really was fun and I had some laughs…hope you like her. :-*
