[QUOTE="Liquide, post: 555182, member: 1407"] From a honest doodler to another (in the sense of critisicm that is a good thing). The things I have a hard time to picture are: [list] [*] [B]Depth:[/B] All the shadow kind of blend togather so even though I know how the orignial picture looks like (which was a good step forward in progession I might add) I cannot see the depth of the picture. Try use shadows a bit less and only where it is most needed. Such as below the wings to give the illusion of depth and 3d :) [*] [B]Detail:[/B] Dont' hide all that wonderful detail you had in this B/W doodle, try use less chunks of colors/shades so it blends togather the originals details and shadows instead of covering them in this fashion. The brightred you have chosen works well though, try combineit with a fiery orange for more detail o come out (and try replace a lot of the dark shadows with a dark crimson color instead) [/list] Apart from these two above I like it, and I also see that you have the same problem as myself when it comes to backgrounds :) (e.g. we try to cover them up in themselves so we don't have to work on them to much). Oh and paint on my fair lady, you're a truly getting closer to your dragon you want to be able to draw for each picture you make (and I want the same honest reply from you when I post my lady red dragon a bit later [still meddling with some shadows and detail] ) [/QUOTE]
