Wow. You art is really, really good.
I don't typically like the more "realistic" types of art, but yours is still amazing.
I'd like to see more of your great stuff.

I wanna put up some of my art sometime, but that won't happen till I get my scanner working. :cries:

Thanks, Myoti! I'll try to post some more when I can.

I'm sorry to hear that you can't get your art stuff up yet. Send me a PM when you're able to, if you'd like, so that I'm reminded to come and see it!

Noo! No snatching, Anonymous!

Here's another new one. Sorry it's been a while. I worked on it in photoshop, and never managed to finish it. I think it looks good, though.

Here's an older one that I like. I was given the challenge to draw a creature crossed between a lynx, eagle, rabbit and.. I think that was it. I admit to tracing over a photo for the general cat and branch outline in photoshop (yes, I know, it's cheating) , but everything else is from my head (texture, colour, etc.

Another old one (I haven't done much lately). It's my character Gazza in plushie/ soft toy form. I still like this one, too.

Cute! *Glomps the pic of the angel lynx and rolls on the floor purring* I love them all. I really like the angel lynx though... so real *jaw drops* I can't draw anything even close to that realistic... you have MONDO tallent. Keep it up!

And now for critique time with That Dude...

First of all nice work there CA. I see that your anime style drawing has been improving a little bit. And the lynx baby is very cute. Gazza looks like the design for a toy and you were going for that so it's quite nice.

As for the anime head try drawing it a little more narrow...Especially the neck. It's to wide for anime style. I can see that it's better than more of your older work. Just remember to try and keep it more narrow.

Great jorb, CA. :D

The lynx and plushie were amazing, but I'm going with TD on the anime one. It's still good, but to meet the anime style, the neck should be thinner, and the nose typically has a lot less detail on it. Also, I've wondered why you neglected to fill in the eye. I guess it was unfinished, but I think your others looked that way as well.
The way the eye is drawn can be the deciding factor in wether (brain fart; can't spell) it's actually anime or not.
Other than that, amazing. Keep it up! ;)

Thanks for the critique, TD! I'm still trying to get to grips with the width of anime heads so it is very useful. I'll take that into account. Thanks for the encouragement, too. :)

Thanks to you also, Liger'smane, for the encouragement. I did trace over a photo for it, though, so next time I've decided not to cheat. :P .

Also thank you to you, Myoti. I'm playing around with different styles in order to try and find a style of drawing people I'm comfortable with. I've got two reasonably good how-to-draw anime books I'll work with. Yes, the eyes were originally blank because I didn't want to mess them up by not being able to blend with a simple black ink pen, but then I continued like that because I wanted to add the colour, shading and glossiness on the computer without the risk of messing the rest of the linework. I never got around to colouring it, though. :)

That's cool CA...You might want to try drawing your anime stuff more like "Last Exile." That's close to your normal style. I'd recommend trying to draw all different styles but the Last Exile style seems like it'd be kind of easy for you to pick up. If you have any questions about it feel free to ask.

Good idea. And thanks you for the offer of advice. I'll take it up if I come accross any snags etc. :) . I'll get some screenshots to work from. :)

Well, continuing in the run of old work...

Here is another of my oldest pictures using the computer. It's also one of my favourites. :)

This one is an owl's head I'll probably never finish properly. :lol:

<<EDIT>>
Hmm... That one of the fiery hawk doesn't seem to be my best version. I'll have to try and find the better version, but that one will do for now. :P

Very nice owl CA! If I get Photoshop any time soon I'm gonna have to have you teach me some stuff. The fiery hawk isn't bad either...It's kind of hard to distinguish from some of the other stuff in the background. It looks like the cover to some preteens adventure book.

Thanks, TD!

I'd try to teach you just the few things I know about photoshop if you get it. :) . yeah, the background kind of blurs the hawk out a bit, and itself is pretty blurry. I should probably go back and rework it some more. :)

Sure thing. Thanks for the critiques, TD and Anonymous. I'm still trying to grasp a style for drawing people, and it is *slowly* coming along so all your comments really help. :)

Thanks, Prota!

Your welcome my home-waffle. And I've told you this a few times before but try and draw from real life. It'll help you learn more than most anything else. Just don't get to obsessive over the goodness of the picture. Every one makes mistakes...So yeah don't beat yourself up over bad ones. Just keep on drawing. Keep on drawing! Draw from real life!

Hmmm, you characters are looking good as ever. Of your 'more realistic' artwork, I think I like the unfinished owl head the most. Great stuff CA!

Hey, good to see you on again, if you remember me. It's been refreshing to see your art, I must say. I especially like the insomniac one -- very humorous. All of them are extremely well done. I especially like the bright colors. Keep it up, sis.

Of course I remember you, Syreth. I like that insomniac one, too... though I've stopped drinking coffee as much. :)

Thanks so much for the encouragement, Jazz!

I should really try and finish that owl-head sometime.. thanks, Esoteric!

As always, that is the best advice. Thanks, TD. I will keep on drawing - and you keep on drawing, too: I love your pictures.

I like your style, CreatureArt, both in the anime style and the realism. You color really nicely too. I'd love to see more stuff in color...
