Hey there little red riding hood, what a big knife you have...
Ok so i started off loving this piece and as time wen on i got less and less enchanted with it. I think my problem was i didn't spend enough time on the initial sketch getting mostly everything right. I didn't use enough reference on the clothing and as a result it came out a little bland in my opinion, and lastly i used dodge to try and correct some lighting and using the standard dodge soft brush is a bad idea and i think it just detracted from my initial more stylized "dirty" painting.
On that note, i would really like to encourage everyone to give some more feedback on peoples stuff, I've been slacking myself but i'm going to get on it a little more starting this week, for me personally i want my work torn to shreds so if you see anything wrong with any of my stuff, or maybe see something that you would have done different i'd love to hear it, thats the whole point of this art blog and as a result i think we'll all grow as artists if we can keep critiques good and constructive. Thanks guys, looking forward to everyones weeklys!
For the most part the picture is solid. My only gripe is the right arm. Not as muscular as the left and it looks a little off anatomically. Other than that, great work man. Wish i was as good with computer coloring programs.
ReplyDeleteGood call, its funny because the arm that looks off wasn't actually in my original sketch and it was kind of tacked on in the end because i needed to balance out the picture a little bit so it makes sense that it doesn't quite work i think this comes back to me needing to work at getting base sketch more solid and planned out before i jump into finishing the picture. I honestly didn't even notice how off the arm was, and now it's really obvious to me. Its amazing what a little outside perspective can do. thanks man.
