A critique could be:

• I like this because...
• I don't like this because...

A critique is not:

• I like this.
• I don't like this.

feeling sheepish? try the sandwich:

• Here's something you did well!
• Here's something you could improve on.
• Here's something else you did well!

Hello!! I'd like to drop in my most recent project :)



This is a drawing of the main character in my comic, Braindread. It's going to be a full body at some point :)



I've done everything... except the arms and legs. yippers. (i have trouble with perspective and limbs)
I can't decide on a pose TT-TT i'm willing to redo some stuff for a better more dynamic pose but i feel so uncreative about that bit

The head is beautifully rendered! Tons of personality there. As far as poses go, you can and should use a pose inform your characters personality. It doesn't have to be anything crazy dynamic and complicated. Would they stand with clenched hands or loose? Would they bend their knees? Put weight on one leg? Most of the trouble I run into with poses comes from not thinking about the motivation for making said pose.
I'd suggest getting in front of a mirror and acting out your character. A good pose can go a long way in realizing a personality, even if it's just a character sheet!

That's a good idea w/ the mirror, idk why i never thought of that! I really should make a character sheet lol, that will for sure help a lot :>

Hello!! I'd like to drop in my most recent project :)

What a cool style! Love how grunge-y yet colorful they look. For pose, I think just arms on the side while standing could work with the facial expression you have - almost like they're incredibly annoyed at something.

I've been working on an RPG for the past few years, had to restart for Godot 4, but figured I can show some of the visuals off. Things like the arrows are just stand-ins for now.

This too is neat!! I'm honestly a big fan of the sprites there. I like the critter in the bottom right :)

Hello! This is a piece I did early this year that I played with for a while and it's pretty simple but I like it! I'd love to see what people think from a artistic perspective though! All critiques welcome

Hello! This is a piece I did early this year

I love it!!!
Your style, color, and line work are all fabulous.
There are some perspective and form problems. These don't have to be perfect for a great piece by any means. but if you're looking for ways to improve you could dig into that.

Cute = nsfw on this forum now??? smh

I think their left leg should be more underneath the body, foot should be bigger, face is a little too large on the head.

Thank you! I appreciate the feedback a lot! I struggled with the legs and feet perspective alot during the process for sure, and the tail was horrible to try and get lol! I tried several times and nothing looked right so I was just like, "eh whatever" and put it in there lolz.
I'll def sketch up some revisions for a improved piece one day and I appreciate the help!!

Didn't know the content moderation levels on here either so I marked it as mature just in case!

Hii! So! I did my first linocut print in like...probably 15 years tonight and I realized I made a huge newbie error and made a design with eyes too small so I drew them on and now I'm worried that they make the design look...not good??? This may just be my own anxiety talking but would I be able to get a couple more eyes and onions on this? Thanks so much!!

Heres my Snoop :)

[estvs]

i think the design looks good!!   
i also cant tell the eyes are drawn on at all even after zooming in superrrrr super close!!

I think that's just good ol' fashioned perfectionism talking.  You're seeing something others aren't specifically because of what you did.  The eyes don't look out of place at all; you did a very good job.
