Hi,

was just browsing in the sections, am a little tired so I'm lazy for the moment :D . So I thought by myself, well, no harm in posting my image. Then I also can get some people's opinion. Actually more about the girl :D, it's my mascotte for my website , the background was very easy. The image is going to be used as a background in my new website that I'm making now.


Soooooo, what ya think ...!! :D

[Radovan_III]

plz tell me what program have u been using to draw that girl???

[Spirit Wolf]

drawing that girl I did by hand on a regular paper with a regular pencil. Then scanned it in photoshop and later colored it in.

sweet love the hair and colors.

Way Cool. You're a good artist!

Like it very much, maybe make the girl a bit more contrast to make the image stronger.

But small remark, there is something entirely wrong with the hand? A hand is almost 2/3 of the size of your face. So make sure you don't mix up sizes when drawing manga.
Manga is very cool but if you look at the way they draw you can see that they are well aware of the proportions of a human body.


But hey, I'm not only here to comment. You're an artist man!

Hi,

thnx for the comments. About the hands, I know, I'm bad @ it. Hands and feet, always have trouble with those. Strange enough, in the beginning her hands where even smaller.
I have some "How to draw manga"-books and they have some techniques for the proportions. Strangly enough the hands where as big as the head according to them, but then, it also has to do with which type of manga-character you draw.
I at least hope I'm getting better @ it, and hopefully after a few drawings the proportions will be better.

Thnx for the comments,
Spirit Wolf
