Throwing my hat in the art ring...

Ok, all of you have inspired me to dust off my old pre-family sketchbook and pencils and start trying again.

This is my first attempt at one of my superheros, PirateRose. It's far from done (obviously she has no face). I've also restrained myself from shading I normally have had a habit of doing and tried to stick to lines like a comic book style. So here's....

PirateRose

I know the gloves are lousy, so I'll just point that out myself.

Also to give you some points of reference here is a piece pulled from the sketchbook that I did pre-family. And digital art I did for another character of mine more recently

All critiques welcomed, that's why I posted them!

I think the pirate's shoulders might be too wide...

and depending on how you want her to look, you could taper into her waist a little more.. remember, curves make stuff look more interesting...

I'll be interested to see how it turns out!

I was thinking of starting to post art too...Y'know, to represent the 12-year-olds of the CoH community.

Spookie: I really like your drawing so far and I can't wait to see the finished product! Welcome to the Fan Art Boards!!!

Feel free too! <^,^> There is no such thing as "too young to post art"; the best part is this forum is *ridiculously* helpful!

You shoulda seen my art before I started posting here... I've improved alot (even though I have a *LONG* way to go yet!)

Pirate: The main thing I notice with your unfinished pic - the torso seems kinda masculine, with little balloon boobs on it >.< Which is a *very* easy mistake to make!

Basically, imho, the shoulders are a tad too wide, and the torso may even be slightly too long - also the breasts seem slightly off... think of them as overturned teacups (I think thats the way it was described to me once >.&gt (What? I'm not obssessed with breasts! Not at all! Nuh uh. No how... <gets smacked with a giant mallet from behind> <x.x> ow...)

On the other hand, I like the way you have the hair laid out, and the skirt looks pretty decent! <^-^> I also like your legs and boots - feminine; but not "omg I'm a model and hot and stuff".

That of course is all in this squirrels opinion <,< so only trust it as far as you want!
