Please tell me what i need to improve/fix on this sketch

[severed arow]

As you may know ive posted quite a few pics i've made (i'm really trying to improve) but usualy i post the finished product so i decided to post the starting off sketch so i can fix/edit the things wrong with it before i have coloured it in on photoshop.

Btw thanks Wytchcraft for posting the topic that shows how you made your sig i much prefer sketching it out then putting it on computer and colouring in :)

So what needs fixing please :P ?

PS. bout yellow tinge and stripes i held it to close to light source or something.

Anatomy. His head and his arms aren't in porportion to the rest of his body

Cape looks kinda cool though :nice:

Keep practicing!

give that guy a sweet set of guns

[severed arow]

do the arms and head need to be bigger?

[d72]

Not necessarily bigger, in porportion to the rest of the character.

Ye what Lord D72 said. He looks kinda like that stretchy guy..gumbo i think it is. Not bad though.

[severed arow]

so maybe if i buff the arms up i dotn think they need to be longer as they would be too big compared to the legs but what about the head?

[d72]

Arms need to be shorter and need to be in porportionate to everything else on the picture. You wouldn't see a guy walking around with arms hitting the floor and a head cocked to the side commonly, would you?

try sketching a rough human shape with correct proprtions, then try adding features like muscle tone and hair, once you've sussed out what a human looks like start adding in details like clothing, erase the sketchy parts and ink the good parts.

I suggest starting with a torso, from their add a head, then legs, then arms. Look at a picture of two of ppl as u do it to get the lengths/sizes right. Looking at porn also helps to learn female anatomy :shifty:

Seriously though i think it actually has helped me with anatomy rofl.

ok i worked hard on the anatomy of this picture what do you think?

[I C0NN0R I]

hard to see, looks alot better though, although the left arm seems kind of detatched, and the elbow is too skinny.

[Devlz]

Lol, what a champ.

[severed arow]

Ok i tried touching up the arm is it better? Anything else that needs redoing?

I feel like the cape needs work am i correct?

[Paxman]

Well It's really good, personally i like to make the end of the cape wider than the top part, so it doesn't look like a square of material. the hands are good, you just need to work on the left arm ;) Just erase the joint and try and touch it up :D other than that, brilliant, keep practising!!

What?

[I C0NN0R I]

I wasn't really critiquing the cape, was thinkign more about anatomy. could make the legs a tiny bit shorter, and maybe make the feet a little larger, also it looks like he's about to fall over 0_o
