Matt's Art (p34: Hey, I finished something!)

[CypressDahlia]

whoa it's tiny did you draw it at that size.

[Matt]

Yes. I had a 800x600 Photoshop canvas zoomed in to about 500% and was just in awe at how much better I was doing than usual.

Then I zoomed out.

But, hey, at least it's different than my usual stuff, so I figured it was worth a post.

[Matt]

Here, I did this one thing with value and stuff:

I'm not sure what to think of it.

p cool just needs detail I guess the lips and eyes look a bit flat

[Gedeon]

Pretty good but as Sly says it needs more defining. Everything is soft and mushy right now, but still pretty good.

[Matt]

...and here I am, posting pictures a month apart.

Was intended to be a character (Naomi, if that means anything to you), but meh. I need to start using reference again. If I go this direction, though, I'll sacrifice cutesy moe for serious semi-realism...

I'll take it. It fits the tone of what I'm writing these days a lot better, anyway.

Dude that one on the left is so good, wow.

There's something odd about the one on the far left. How is their neck supposed to be? At an angle or straight because it looks somewhat long.

That top one's neck, to me, looks slightly too thin- where it dips in (though it could just be me being fussy; I'm really out of practice so...)

Otherwise they're sweet. That left one. I can't stop looking at it. I really like it.

[Sylux]

Oh hey you're back. The looking-up face is a bit wonky, but the other ones are super groovy. You been improvin', dawg. :3

[Gedeon]

The second one....the looking up.
The jaw line is not aligned to the eye-line.
Pretty nice job on the one on the left!

[Matt]

Looks worse than the last set. Practice, though. Maybe I should just put this kind of thing in the exercise thread.
