These look very good to me! Were they done with or without reference?

I especially like the second and the third one, they have a nice mood to them. The last is technically extremely well done but th ...

I cannot express how happy I am about this. Thanks so much, this is really, really, really (x a couple billion times) awesome.

Thanks for the help and comments! I'll definitly keep working, I know this isn't exactly good, but hey, it's more than I expected three weeks ago. I'll definitly train a lot in the summer.

Thanks for the help everyone! Through a helpful email I found the feature Netpainter. It's quite neat, but the problem is only one person can work at once.

I might try that Netmeeting solution with P ...

Sorry if this question has been answered several times already, but I searched and couldn't find anything.

Actually that about the eyelashes is not true - although it sounds weird, men naturally have the longer eyelashes on average. However, women use make-up, and long eyelashes are seen as female trait, s ...

Alternative Step 1: Get a WACOM tablet.

You get the idea, of course you can improve without a tablet, but personally I'd suggest you to draw traditionally until you can ge ...

You could check out some of the older threads on this topic, there's quite a lot of them around.

Personally I use an Intuos 12x12, because I don't mind the space it takes on my desktop, and if I don' ...

With all these artists around here I dare not call myself one - but yesterday I got a figure manneqin(like Loomis describes in his book). Actually I didn't plan to buy one, but when it was offered at ...

I own an Intuos 12"x12", and I too deem the 4D mouse quite useless. Mostly because it doesn't lie well in the hand, I much prefer my Infrared Logitech mouse. And if I paint /have the tablet placed in ...

Could you be a bit more specific about what is different from your expectations? Personally I own an Intuos, so I can't really talk about other tablets, but I seriously doubt that another tablet is so ...

Seeing as more and more people do it, I'd like to toss in some of my recent pencil art as well(as it's not as bad as my computer art). Unlike most others posted these aren't quick sketches though. Eno ...

I'd go for some more contrast in the background, both the grass and the ...

Try the muddy water over there :P

To me it also looks as if he was in deep thoughts. I like the picture a lot, but it is evident you weren't as careful on the background as on the character, which is quite natural. There 's too little ...

Comments for the rest:

Snake Grunger 3, You have a slight attempt at a catchlight here, still not bright enough. ALso, the pupils seem to fade into the iris, make that more defined.

So I had a try at this as well. Screw me. It doesn't look like me much, and it's really bad compared to others here. Oh well, I had fun doing it, planned to only make a 30 minute portrait and started, ...

I'm just sitting here at school(Yes, we have school on saturday here) and have nothing to do, so I figured why not just comment on all those portraits. Even though Joachim already did a great job(much ...

Nothing specially for applying as a designer, but general rules, some of them mentioned already. We went through that at school recently, even though most of us will go to college before anyway.

I like her, the face has a great look to it. However, I would imagine Tolkien's Elves a little closer to humans, but that's your personal drawing, so your personal opninion images/smiles/icon_smile.g ...

I'm in no way a proffessional WACOm user, but I personally rest my wrist on the tablet.

I think the comparision of Photoshop and Painter is like 3DSMAX(without Character Studio) and Poser. Completely different, but both rock in their way.

I see Photoshop as the equivalent to 3DSMAX, the ...

I'd like to thank everyone who made this possible, Lord Whorfin, Anthony, and not least, Andrew Loomis. I know he's dead, but that is an awfully good book to leave to us.

Now I'm off to get my art be ...

Possibly Lord Whorfin(who offered space for the figure drawing book) has got some more to offer for this?

If not I could possibly talk to a friend of mine, he owns a server with unlimited space and b ...

I just found out the Loomis figure drawing book never was out of print - in the german language, by the publisher "Muster-Schmidt". The last reprint was only as little ago as 200, although it's out ag ...
