Description
I do remember about BG - just don't know what exactly to do about it. I made his eyes smaller, added more shading, fixed anatomy a little bit... a lot...

P.s. now it rainy and cold *drinks instant coffee with cookies* but still stuffy *wants to say "hi" to the builders who made it possible to open only one window from three*

What else?
JOIN !!!

-------------------------
Yeah-yeah... I try to make something nice with this!
Actually I'm in an awful mood because of British GP... that's a reason to draw cute pictures. It's so stuffy *needed to by a fan in a Chinese souvenirs shop even though didn't like the color*. Sorry for grumbling

Eeh... actually I wanted to ask for some critique (I haven't started drawing his hands yet though)

--------------------

That's Angie again, he's approximately 10 here. He's still blond and stupid (though the 2nd will never change).
I'm gonna make a lineart based on it. He stands on a bridge and is daydreaming. Yep, sky is beautiful!
Ain't he cute?
Hope you like it!
I'll write his profile (personal data) like I've written for Sam [link] later.
And yep, the bracelets on his left wrist is a gift from Vio [link]

I don't know but there's something I dislike here. I totally love the sketch [link] but there's something wrong about the coloring, I don't know.

Well, take care and have a nice day!

It's not finished! And I don't know when it'll be finished. I mean it can be quick and can be long - I don't know What do you think about the picture? Comments and critique are highly appreciated!

Updates
As my dear suggested, I've drawn his bracelets made of wooden beads (+ some colored beads because I wanted some bright spots) I hope it's hippie-like.
+ Some changes with his face
+ base for a bridge

Updates 2
As suggested I made his ?left? arm a bit thicker.
+ Made his arm thicker
+ A bit more details to his palm
+ A bit more shading for the bridge
+ Added some shading for his hair

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwww...... Cool!!!!! I'm so happy to see a pic of Angie!
I looooove the colors! Especially for the sky, and the hairs!!!

Ok... It's time to suggest!!!!!
Because I looooove nature or other.... I suggest to you to draw a rose or a creeper on the linee of balcony....
It would to be nice, if you can draw beyond Angie a a glass door surrounded by climbing plants.... Ok, I know that this can be difficult, and deleting the beautiful sky, but I find that only the sky is colored a little empty.... It is strange, indeed!
You could draw back Angie even a hint of plants, just to give a little depth to the image!

Thank you for critique and for nice words!

Actually it's a bridge - but now I think i need to dosomething with BG ^^ because it's not really obvious that it's a bridge and not a balcony (my fault, my fault)
You know - I love bridges, and roads

Actually there are two pictures - another one with older Angie and the same bridge - now I think it's kinda sad - don't know why...

And I think maybe I should cut the lower part of the picture ^^ (in any case the lower part looks awful)

illusorya In reply to AngieVX [2010-07-12 19:18:41 +0000 UTC]

Eh eh.... I know, I know...

Ok, don't worry...
Because it's a bridge... I suppose Angie is in the city, right?
I council to you to sketch (not too much detailed) some skyscrapers or buildings... Just to make the idea of bridge....
Please... Don't cut the lower part!!!! It's so nice if you put more details for the bridge, for example some interlocking nails or iron... Just for to see that it's a BRIDGE and not a BALCONY... An Angie toooooo much cut is so ugly, and don't give a beautiful perspective of the image... I think it's just a matter of adding some detail on the bridge... Sometimes just a little! So rather than cutting the image, "hide" along with other details! Another tip? if you want to give more "height" to the design without cutting the poor Angie, you may also enter an early billboard under his legs!
I think some effect of smog or too much irons are perfect to represent a city.... Or give the idea to a city.... Isn't important how are so full of details... I think that simple lines or a sketch of color of a building give a depth to the image, and make rich the image....



It's always a pleasure to help a friend!

A bridge through the river ^^
Angie's spent his childhood outside the city - that was supposed to be a very picturesque place (but Angie has no experience in living in a big city - he always gets in troubles because of it)

I could recognize his style of drawing from a mile away!
this is Angie? wow, is really beautiful! did she really is blonde and dumb? Angie I know is blonde, but it is an intelligent person!
and I found that the design is great, but as you said yourself, is not finished, then I will wait to see how it looks, but I'm sure I will not have much to say about. ^ ^ And the bracelet is very beautiful!

AngieVX In reply to SpiderUrashima [2010-07-26 20:02:28 +0000 UTC]

It's just because of my style of digital coloring - I can't really use cell-shading ^^
Don't be sad! *hugs you*
But if I draw a comics - you wouldn't have to buy it - I would send it to you

Is this the character who you also drew with dark hair and said he had an evil mode? He looks so innocent in this one, it's so hard to imagine him being evil!

I think one of the differences between the sketch and the coloring is his eyes. In the sketch they look like they're aimed upward more, giving him a dreamy facial expression. But in the coloring he almost is looking straight at the viewer (especially in the right eye), so it's hard to tell he's daydreaming... anyway, just a thought This looks great, though! I'd love to see it finished, with a larger background... I want to see more of those sunset colors!

AngieVX In reply to LyzzART [2009-09-23 07:13:03 +0000 UTC]

Yep, you're right! The same character, the thing about his eyes is that I drew them asymmetrically on the sketch - though it's hard to notice (but it became obvious when I started coloring so I had to fix it), but thank you so much for suggestion, you're right about it, maybe if I'll make the iris smaller - I'll get that dreaming effect back!

Ferto [2009-07-23 17:13:25 +0000 UTC]

Cool. ^^ I absolutely love the facial expression. Maybe the thing with the colouring is the sky. You used a purple-red colour scheme, which is absolutely lovely, but if you want to create that certain dreamy feeling, you may want to use some of the softer shades of blue instead. Just a guess.

It's awesome anyway. I'm really looking forward to the graphic novel thingy.

AngieVX In reply to Ferto [2009-07-23 17:26:04 +0000 UTC]

Ah! Thank you , I've already fixed some things that I disliked about coloring of his face (and you've probably missed the first variant that I disliked). As for dreamy-thing - I don't want to use all-blue color scheme (i think it's a cliche though purple is also cliche ) well, there'll be a little bit of blue (though you can't see it now because the image is cropped). Maybe I should do a more detailed background - I have to think about it.

Thank you so much!
I can only say "Muchas gracias" in Spanish And I know that 'mañana' is 'tomorrow', 'el farol' - is 'lantern', 'rimavera' is "Spring". So you're studying Spanish??? I love how Spanish sounds but it's impossible to study it in my city, I have to move to the region center first, but I want to study it too.
