I am finally sharing my little project, it was gift for my boyfriend and I wanted to do it right way, so I took my time... Also this was really good practice for me, for everything that I learned until now...

This is so good! I especially like the hair. it looks like you did individual strands of hair without it looking overworked. (something I find hard to do)

Thank you so much! I had trouble to start hair, but then when I started ,piece by piece, I did it hahaha

I didn`t post in a while, but I finally finished my rocket girl for the challenge! I could definitely did better lighting, but I am still not sure how to do it...learning in progress :smiley:
I am glad that I am better with anatomy and colors, on step at a time!

This was great male anatomy study, since I am not use to drawing/painting male characters. I also tried to work more on light/shadow, as well colors, since I am almost done with those classes. Thanks to Marc`s feedback, I did some changes, hopefully successfully! Time to move on to next practice...

I remember this from the stream :grin:
This is oddly specific. but I love the way you painted the deltoid. The colors and highlight are done really well. The rest of the skin looks nice too, I like the colors you chose for it's tone.

One thing I'd say is be careful with the hairline. It's pushed back farther on the right than it is on the left and it's making the forehead look uneven.

Overall he looks cool :smile:

You are so right, I didn`t even notice that! Thanks for feedback, I will definitely pay attention to that :smiley:

I pulled out my 3 point perspective homework, but now it`s finally in color. Main purpose of this was practicing color and light theory, but as well trying to give my best to make this looks as good as possible. I got feedback from Marc twice, and also from some people from Discord, so I tried to fix/add whatever they suggested, to get better result. Can it be done even better? For sure... Can I do it better? Probably this is my best for now :sweat_smile:
I had to move from anatomy for some time, cuz I was going crazy, and this was really good study and break from anatomy struggle... Any and all feedback is always appreciated! Thanks friends :smiley:

Looking good! :smile: I know how you felt about anatomy... I just can't do the same thing for weeeeks.. although, I guess, the effect would be much better :smiley:

sometimes you just need short break, cuz it`s never enough anatomy practice :sweat_smile:

This is Ruby - sailor shaman. She helps sailors to fight/escape bad weather and dangerous sea creatures. Ruby is worshiping Rubies in favor of the Sun and good weather. She created magic climate maps and symbolic maps of marine life.
Finally something worth posting, and I am proud of my very first original character. I kept rendering forever, cuz every time I opened file I saw something new, that can be fixed. I decided to finish it at this point cuz I don`t want to ruin it, but probably some stuff can be done better.
Any feedback or comment will be more than appreciated :relaxed:

congratulations on finishing your first character design! Looks very appealing and its great that you also gave us some backgound info :smile: sounds interesting!
As you have a lot of movement in the characters hair (I assume because of some wind), I recommend making the cape a little more dynamic as well :smiley:
I also really like the color scheme :smile:
Hope that helps!

That is a very good point, I totally missed that part when it comes to cape :sweat_smile: I am glad that my story works and you like the design, honestly it makes me so happy I did it right :blush: Thanks for feedback, I appreciate your help :blue_heart:

After a while, I am done with my second character design, and I finally have the feeling my skills are improving. Her name is Emerald and she is a forest shaman. She is in charge of nature and worships emeralds which are considered to be a source of eternal life and wisdom. Her job is to keep a balance and harmony in the forest.
Any feedback is more than welcome!

My first try when it comes to mixed animals, Lemog (lemur and frog) and Slox (sloth and fox)... I didn`t expect much, but it turned out pretty decent.
