I'm loving some of these faces, but i think you need to think more about what you're drawing - not much point in a warrior wearing heavy armour and then some flimsy bit of fabric over her legs :)

keep it up!

[Darius the Mediocre]

Thanks. I'll try and think about that now. She's a ranger, so she'd need to run, but..it does look silly doesn't it?

Also great development so far!

[Darius the Mediocre]

Thanks, once I'm out of public education, I'm going to start an assload of studies.

Also, would you recommend I mastered drawing before doing lineless painting?

[kuroart]

really nice start. I like alot of your cartoons and I really like that flower. the proportions on the human figures is off a little, but that will get better with practice.
hmm...I guess you can master drawing before doing painting(its actually what im trying to do) but it doesnt hurt to do a few paintings for fun.
well, thats about all for me.
keep updating, bro

[Darius the Mediocre]

Thanks for the advice, kuro.

I know most regard MS Paint as a sin, but I'm posting these because I think they still have merit and I'm afraid I lost some of the stylistic tools I used in these in recently overhauling my entire art world. So, can anyone tell me what, if anything, I was doing right/well in these that I should use?

sorry bout the lined paper it's all I had at the time.

[wareagle]

nice stuff, i like the flower alot reminds me of mucha

[Bartovan]

Your cartoons look good. You still need to work on your line quality. You probably are already doing anatomy studies to achieve more refinement.
Keep on going

[Darius the Mediocre]

Thanks for the advice. Any ideas on how to adjust my scanner? My lines don't come out like they are on paper.

[Sublimus]

Haha, nice.

[Darius the Mediocre]

Are you the same Sublimus from the PA forums, dude? I'm Tam. I don't know why I changed my name.

[silvestri99]

Very nice start to your s.b. i think your strongest work is your creature design. Maybe some more anatomy practice would strengthen your human concepts. Keep posting the good work!!!

[gmags]

Hey Darius,
Great stuff in your sb!!! And great use of color in here. I wish I could come up with wacky characters like you, but it's very hard for me. Please post more good stuff bro!! :)

[Darius the Mediocre]

Wackiness comes from eating garlic butter sauce...and practice.

I was wondering, how hard is it to swashbuckle in a skirt?

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b261/Freidermachen/pirats.jpg

[Darius the Mediocre]

Yes.

Er, ballpoint pen sketches. I exaggerated the nose on Mustrum and the Eyes on Magrat.

[Gleeson]

[Darius the Mediocre]

She's a pirate witch...and I think you're right. I think I will develop the character. Thanks.

[Darius the Mediocre]

A friend wanted an anime picture and this is what I came up with. C&C would be greatly appreciated.

[Darius the Mediocre]

Ugh, I can't get a grip on coloring this.

[Darius the Mediocre]

Tried doing a figure with no guides and as few strokes as I could manage.

[Darius the Mediocre]

Hurr hurr, seems I'm the only one that posts in my thread.

[Darius the Mediocre]
