I figured I'd make a thread that has some of my drawings in it. Please feel free to give feedback, and in fact I encourage feedback. I want you to critique me. So...I'll just throw out one of my more recent drawings. I did this one within the past year, perhaps right at a year ago, I'm not sure.
Ah, just looked at the picture, I had dated it so it has been a little over a year ago now.
Anyways, a little bit of information about this drawing. I play a game that is an online game and I play on an RP server. One of my characters is a gnoll, which is basically a hyena like humanoid. They are very tribal and clan oriented. At any rate, my first gnoll character on that server was made the day gnolls became a playable race. So the actual character is about two years old now but I drew her much later. Anyways, the character's name is Jenrawrdra. As for why she has such an "odd" name it is because gnoll names are supposed to be very guttural and are supposed to roll off your tongue. I didn't know that at the time I made this character but honestly, I still think the name fits that qualification.
The drawing itself took about two days to do. I referenced a screenshot that I had taken while in game in order to draw this picture. Each hair in her mane was done one by one, there was no special technique to it. I literally went through and drew the individual hairs and I think my patience paid off but some may think different, I don't know.
At any rate, feel free to comment, give pointers and that sort of thing, and don't worry about offending me. I want honest opinions on this. If you think I could have done better on something, say so. If I don't get accurate feedback on what areas I need improvement I will never improve.So...tell me what you think if you wish.
