The "logical left brain", "creative right brain" thing is pretty much hooey. See [url=http://www.rense.com/general2/rb.htm]Right Brain or Left Brain - Myth or Reality?

ok I'll bite. Haven't done any figure drawing in a while, but here's some "older" stuff (from early-to-mid 2001) that I scrounged up -- pretty sure I haven't posted them before. They're like 10-15 min ...

Hiya julie. Nice piece...don't usually see mystical artwork round here. The design is very cool.

The main thing I noticed was that you seem to have over-noodled certain areas, i.e. using too many str ...

nice. Only problem that sticks out for me is the eyes. The first time I looked at the pic, I thought the bags under his eyes were the whites, and that he had no pupils. When looking at it this second ...

yeah! Nice stuff, chapel! Your work keeps getting better and better. Congratulations on making it into the comics biz.

"Why don't I get any replies to my posts?" should be in the FAQ, seriously. And, "How can I get more replies?" (with JiMSouL's post and a blurb about "the basics" as an answer).

*bump* anyone? sucks, rocks, mediocre?

Blitz-- nice work! I dig the dude in the far bottom left.

I feel guilty doing this, but...*bump*

if there are no more comments, I'll take it that this direction is a dead end images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Your drawing/coloring skills are great and are improving rapidly (love your caricatures), so no crits needed there. As for your site:

1) My first reaction was: *squint*. The text is too hard to read- ...

When using a nick online (IRC, gaming, etc) I usually use either 'tin' or 'SottoVoce'. tin came from Tinman, which I originally used as a handle on a local BBS. Tinman... Justin...yeah, pretty lame. S ...

she's very... er, naked.

I would suggest, if not giving her a more dynamic pose, at least give her a more expressive face--she kinda looks like she's staring out into space. The heels seem rather out ...

scribbler: no idea what your first comment meant, but I'll take it as a compliment images/smiles/icon_smile.gif

As for the third piece being too light, that was partly intentional: I want it to pla ...

What do you guys think of these two photomanips? Specifically I'm wondering whether they have enough of a focus, or subject, to hold them together. Are they just "pretty textures"?

oops, sorry for the confusion. I originally had a comment in there about the head being too big, which you had already fixed, so I deleted it -- that's what I meant for you to disregard. The comment a ...

nice work, awesome website too (bookmarked). I don't remember seeing any of your work before now -- glad I catched this post.

Here's hoping you keep doing digital stuff.

great work, feeb. I love the way you rendered her sampling the goop images/smiles/icon_smile.gif Her expression looks like a cross between paranoia and guilty pleasure.

There are various theories about what timed sketching teaches, but for me, I find it forces me to concentrate more: I have to really observe hard, and apply strokes/lines efficiently and accurately. I ...

I'm doing little digital work lately, but I want to contribute, so here's some more of what I've been doing a lot of...figure studies! Hope people aren't sick of seeing them images/smiles/icon_smile. ...

Anybody ever get a USB wacom to work with a laptop? I tried plugging my tablet into a Dell laptop I have access to, but it wouldn't work -- no power for some reason. I was able to get a serial-based t ...

Speve: good stuff! You have a great sense of proportion and foreshortening. Don't forget to draw some poses with the face showing images/smiles/icon_smile.gif Nice linework, too...you might want to t ...

nice work. It's kind of strange to see someone weilding a gun in a self-portrait but, um, whatever. Cool style.

1) yes, please ditch the pop-up windows. Trying to control the way users browse == bad.

2) Including links to non-existent content (i.e. "under construction" pages) is kinda silly--I suggest taking o ...

great stuff! really well rendered.

Only suggestion would be to throw in some more contrast and/or subtle taints of colors--e.g., the teeny dab of blue on the first guy's chin ... something to break u ...

lovely. Only crit is that the cyan strokes in the hair don't quite work for me.

(...and that I had to copy/paste the image's URL to see it)

heh... clever. I dig it. Although he should be gripping a bloody pencil or something, not a gun images/smiles/icon_smile.gif
