Soran Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 (edited) Well time for another random drawing since I have way too much time on my hands because I like art.Right now I'm experimenting with a cartoonish drawing style. Anyway onto the drawing!Link to drawingThis is just a test of the style, so it is pretty basic.It was drawn in gimp and took me an estimated 30 minutes to draw it, and another 30 minutes to color and add details.C&C is appreciated,~Soran Edited April 14, 2012 by Soran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Control_Vee Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 (edited) Slow claps to you, my friend.Edit: Woops! Accidentally clicked the post button before finishing. Give me a sec...I think it looks great, though the 'fins' on the head of the Avohkii are a bit... strange, i'd suggest working on those.

Mare Tranquillitatis Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 It would have been better if not ruined by that balloon. Anyways, I like it: I'm a fan of of chibi and cartoonish thingies. And you draw it in only one hour, including coloring, so it's such a good result for such a fast work. Perhaps more details would make it way more enjoyable, but it's still a nice piece of art. 9/10----- Lord of the Rings -----Titles: Dark Lord, Lord of Mordor, Lord of Gifts, Lord of Barad-Dûr, Lord of the Earth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireEmblem Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 i like it. the style's nice and the drawing is smooth. the text bubble is a nice touch, but i kind of feel it takes away a little bit? i don't know, i'm not good at criticizing art. :Pi like it, that's all there really is to say. Quote Thanks for years of fun, BZP. You made me happy as a child.Wanna know how FC2 was gonna end/FC3 was gonna play out? Check my deviantART and my Brickshelf.

I had a hard time with the design of them. Thanks.It would have been better if not ruined by that balloon. Anyways, I like it: I'm a fan of of chibi and cartoonish thingies.

I've always liked chibi and cartoonish things also. I'm glad that you like it, and I agree with adding more details. I just wanted to see if I was capable of drawing a simple cartoonish drawing. I might draw another later and put more details and such in.

I'm glad you like it. I was bored so I added the text bubble since I couldn't think of anything else to add to it. Thanks.Thanks for the C&C guys.~Soran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mare Tranquillitatis Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Ok, waiting for next piece anxiously!----- Lord of the Rings -----Titles: Dark Lord, Lord of Mordor, Lord of Gifts, Lord of Barad-Dûr, Lord of the Earth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axilus Prime Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Lol. Good parts: Smoothness, simplicity and yet shading, resemblance to the consistent Soran look in your self-art. Bad parts: The "Johnny Test" style face. I hate that show. XD 7/10, but that's only because of my bias against cartoony/chibi stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean Valjean Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 He reminds me of those cartoon characters from TV shows who have ridiculous hair. Which was obviously what you were going for. Nice way of making a connection there.By the way, I was thinking the exact same thing as Tahu Nuva Golden: my first thought was Johnny Test. Although of my thoughts for that show, I'll leave no comment.Your Honor,Tyrannosaurus Kraggh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmaster Lehvorak Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 This is an interesting style of art? Do you do this to all of your characters? Just curious.~Lehvorak Quote << LEHVORAK ZONE >> Web Design - Graphic Design - Illustration Find out more on: _ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexann Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 It looks all very well done except one thing: The eyes. I don't know why but, I hate the eyes they really bother me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levico Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Gimp is awesome, agreed? Though I have to say that you are better than me at it, especially at cell shading. Nice one.~Lev Quote BIONICLE DeviantArthttp://levico.deviantart.com/ My SS/EpicsThe Darkness WithinAll We Have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soran Posted May 10, 2012 Author Share Posted May 10, 2012 Wow, haven't really been paying attention to the replies.Ok, waiting for next piece anxiously!----- Lord of the Rings -----Titles: Dark Lord, Lord of Mordor, Lord of Gifts, Lord of Barad-Dûr, Lord of the EarthThanks, I made a new peice already and uploaded it. It isn't cartoonish though.Lol.Good parts: Smoothness, simplicity and yet shading, resemblance to the consistent Soran look in your self-art.Bad parts: The "Johnny Test" style face. I hate that show. XD7/10, but that's only because of my bias against cartoony/chibi stuff.Thanks for the C&C. I don't know who else to draw, that's why I constantly draw my character. Plus drawing an avohkii is quite challenging, especially in different art forms, so it gives me a challenge. I never intended it to look like TV Show, but now that you point it out, it does look similar sadly. Thanks. He reminds me of those cartoon characters from TV shows who have ridiculous hair. Which was obviously what you were going for. Nice way of making a connection there.By the way, I was thinking the exact same thing as Tahu Nuva Golden: my first thought was Johnny Test. Although of my thoughts for that show, I'll leave no comment.Your Honor,Tyrannosaurus KragghI wasn't necesarily going for that as I was just recreating a 'sprite' kit I made in a much more cartoonish form then it already is. Although unintentional I'm glad you like it. Don't worry, I don't like the show either and as I said before it wasn't intentional. Thanks.This is an interesting style of art? Do you do this to all of your characters? Just curious.~LehvorakIf by all your characters do you mean my comic characters? Then technically no. I do draw some of my other characters periodically, but its normally whoever has a kanohi hau (Because haus are easy to draw). I've drawn Akino and Nico (two characters from my comics) in two different forms.It looks all very well done except one thing: The eyes. I don't know why but, I hate the eyes they really bother me.I had trouble with the eyes. I didn't know how exactly to make cartoonish eyes, so I was going off of memory from what the eyes of the matoran from LTSL looked like. obviously I failed though, but I guess it was an alright attempt at it.Gimp is awesome, agreed? Though I have to say that you are better than me at it, especially at cell shading. Nice one.~Lev I agree. I have photoshop (cs3) but its really... complicated. Only time I use it is when I practice my drawing tablet (Which I rarely use). I wouldn't say I'm better at Gimp then anyone, I just know how to do a lot more useless things with it. Took me a while to realize that I was cell shading. Thanks.Glad you guys like the drawing (attempt) and be sure to check out my next art style attempt.~Soran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iPenguin Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 It's quite good. Though the face seems slightly odd, as the eyes are a little bit to big and the pupils are slightly cross eyed. That, and the jaw is a little bit too small.However, these problems are very miniscule and don't really detract from the picture, which I like.I hope to see an animation with this.
