Cool. I really like most of the female's costume design, primarily on the legs with that one striped sock inside of her leather boots and thigh strap. I find it pretty annoying that the boy is covered head to toe while the chick looks like a hooker.. but that's more of a general concern of mine regarding popular culture's treatment of female vs. male characters.. So that's not so much of a crit as it is my personal opinion on the subject. :shrug:


Anyway, real crits: the only areas that look to me like they could be improved are the girl's hand and left leg.

Just take a second to try to flip the bird like that, with your hand in a fist and your finger standing straight up. It's not something your hand is supposed to do, and I think it looks a little strange in the img. Honestly I think it would benefit the img to do that hand from a reference, either your own hand or a friend to make it look a little more natural. But I understand that if you altered the hand to be more natural, you'd lose a little of your stylistic exaggeration. About the same with the leg. Based on her pose I feel like her left foot should be pointing towards the upper left not the bottom right; right now it's twisted a little unnaturally. But to fix that leg you'd also have to move his foot to the left, which is kind of annoying..

Okay, one more thing. The blue apparition coming from his hand seems a little tossed in. If you want it to have more of an impact in the img, you could add a blue glow on them in a couple of places, like on his face and hair.


Hope you don't mind the crits, but just remember - improvement is *good*. These crits are a bit minor, but you can really solidify your work by keeping an eye out for strange anatomical anomolies. Keep up the good work! ;D

Nice. I think I can guess where you got her hair from. The thinner features on the girl in this pic are an improvement, I think. The character designs are good too. I'd say this is one of my favorites of your work.

Your critiques are always so awesome. Keep 'em coming, please!

And I agree with your points, I still have some work to do on natural poses and limb/finger positioning. And I think that will come over time, thanks to extremely helpful critiques from you. Thanks a bunch :)
One of my favourites too, and speaking of which, thanks for the Fav!

You know where I got the hair from? Haha, where??? ;)

And you've noticed the purposely thin thighs :) Its the first time in, oh I dunno, my whole life I've drawn a woman without a ghetto booty and thunder thighs. And I loved it!
i think this one is my new favorite out of all your stuff

NP.

Avril Lavigne. That's her new hair doo.

Also, I must admit I do like the change to a slightly more normal body type. And if you like it too then so much the better.
