Isn't this suppoused to be a fourum where people give crits and comment?
If my work is not up to the standards, then I WILL stop posting, but seeing how people don't even bother to write anything is aggrevating !! |

First of all: learn figure drawing. From what I see, right now, you're making contour drawings by literally "silhouetting" your characters in. Learn about gesture, rthymic flow. That will help develop form.
The light blinding the kid looks like a random blob. The form's exaggerated because there's no powerful gesture. It all builds up. =)
Nevertheless, still a nice attempt. Don't let other people's "standards" dissuade you from improving. |

being that they're your first attempts, i think you should just hang around the forum and gather as much knowledge and practise as you can before posting. there are so many posts that go through here, if everyone was posting their first attempts (actually, they kind of are), then people wouldnt care to spend the time commenting.
first image is proportionally nice. the colors are bland and the lines could really be cleaned up (easy on the comp). it doesnt look finished as there's no background and a weird scribble to the left.
second one is anatomically fucked :] there's interesting motion and all, but his whole body lacks solidity and symmetry, like a sack of loose skin.
the third reminds me of south park. it's very flat. since that light on the left is the only light, try emphasizing that by throwing shadows over your character. you'd think the ground would be somewhat lit up as well. his feet look like tomatoes. |
