mr. bear just wants a hug


Always give your toys the love and attention they crave. If you don't, they'll will turn demonic and come after you. Every time. Which comes to the second point of this illustration: always carry an oversized knife with you! :)

i wasn't happy with the style of my last post, so i decided to try something different, go easier on the shading. And lar dee dar, i likes it much better this time around :D

mah image links dun wurk no moh

i'm iffy about the perspective of the eyes/face still...
and tho i must admit the clearer lines make it easier to look at, it loses a bit of the light fluffy feeling
especially in the hair D:

  2. Millie! Your figure is really well done! the sky colors are beautiful and the composition is cool. I like the smaller version better than the bigger version. The lineart looks smoother when the size is reduced, otherwise, the whole picture is kinda blurry. Maybe sharpen up the lines?

    Should I not critique? I don't want to offend anyone or make this into a bigger deal than it is... and no one else has been critiquing... so should I, or should I just be complementary?

  3. CRITIQUE AWAYYYYY
    yes, i understand that i need to spend some time with my lines and make them...THE BEST THAT THEY CAN BE
    (i thought i could get away with it this time...soft colors AND soft lines!? don't do it.)

  4. I think critiquing is a great idea! I mean we're all trying to get better here.

    This is so great. The palette is awesome, and I really like the scene and the background.

    The only things I'd have to say are that I agree with Beth about the lines. Also, there's something about her eye that bothers me a little, like it's too big? I think it's something about the white to the right of the eye.

  5. i see what you're saying with the pupil she's kinda looking...sideways D:
    at the same time, i was trying to go for an anime-esque big-eyed green-haired girl yaknow!? maybe it wasn't obvious enough? :\
    urggh

    but thanks for the crits, it's really good to get feedback to faster evolve (into ivysaur! with a leaf stone? ummm)
    i shall dust off my critique gun for you guys :D
