I drew a pic of a ninja in Photoshop. The positioning is kinda weird, dunno why I did that, just felt like it. Any thoughts?

*nod* the positioning is a bit wierd. Does look liek the ninja is hurt. What you need to do is change the right leg (my right) a bit outward so it looks like he's running towards the right... (because his hair is going the other way.) one thing that might help correct the positioning is adding the toes...looks to me the foots are backwards.

all u gotta do is rotate him a bit towards his left so that he is more on that one foot, cause then he will seem more balanced in a moving way...cause right now he is kinda off balance, and if you were to move him the other way his feet would be bowed out funny.

i like how the forarm is longer, animeish

ohyeah, and if u turn him, remember to turn his head back to normal so that he doesnt look drunk

I think I saw an anime once, mmmm, maybe "Fatal Fury"? Long time ago. Something like that, it had the bad guy drones landing after a jump into a pose somewhat like this. Woble a bit and move unnaturally but still in control. It works because the pose looks a little bit like it must be uncomfortable but conveys that this is someone that does not deal in such small matters as "discomfort". A ninja is NOTHING without attitude, just some guy in black. This is clearly not just some guy.

Hey hey. Thanks guys.

Ha ha, he does look kinda hurt and/or drunk. He's suspose to look like he's swaying to his left...upon reflection, his left leg looks pretty gimpy.:P Heh heh, I got really lazy drawing the feet, plus I'm just not very good at feet. Later

very cool... i think the thing that is bothering me the most is HIS right leg... its too short. and perhaps if it were sligtly bent back it'd put him a little more in balance too...but to me it looks much to short
