I started drawing this face on my way to school, but had my lessons canceled so I ended up drawing the whole scene. (Inspired by some WarCraft music).



Sorry for the bad quality of the scan.

I'm wondering, where did his fingers go?

Well, umm, the fingers are right there. Can't you see? You can't? Watch more carefully, you'll make them out eventually.

Thx for the comments, Nex

Gecko,
I find the balance too heavy on the right side. And the primary tree is dead centre in the image which hurts the composition, I feel. Try moving that tree to the left somewhat, perhaps.

As for the Orc, I find the upper arm muscles need some more work. Of the two primary muscles in the upper arm (bicep & tricep), the bicep is the smaller, while the tricep accounts for most of the muscle mass.

In your drawing the biceps have an insane buldge to them and there is little mention of the triceps. Do a search on yahoo for bodybuilders or stand in front of a mirror flexing for some reference.

Looking forward to future incarnations.

Cheers,
jamie

Thanks Jamiem!

I'm very happy you took the time to correct the anatomical mistakes on the hands, because I was just gonna let them be as they were. Instead I'm now browsing through [url=http://www.bodybuilder.org's]www.bodybuilder.org's[/url] gallery and studying them muscle groups.

As for the composition, I paid little attention to it since I never meant to fill the whole paper in the 1st place. I appreciate all the comments and gonna try and learn from 'em, too.
