[Katana Quick Draw]

Really good stuff here (puts my work to shame lol).

I like the shading and how the characters look life like in their motion.
Good job!

Thank you kindly! :D

Good. Thank you.

You are definitely getting better.
The anatomy is improving and you did a decent job with the hands and face.
The abs are a little off, but not bad.

I do like the reflection but it's a perfect reflection which implies that the water isn't moving.
Seeing that there are lines of movement in the water, the reflection would be slightly distorted. The water would also flow around anything that is obstructing it's path.

Overall you did a pretty good job, keep working at it man!

Dangerice responds:

Thanks, man!

[My Little Red Riding Hood Cover]

I can see what you were going for in terms of effect.
I would say 4/5 for the idea, it kind of reminds me of a movie cover.
But for the drawing as a whole, 3.5/5

To improve things composition wise, maybe you can add a few more trees or even change the perspective a little.

As for the drawing over all, it's a bit off with the anatomy.
It appears that you were drawing the character in a pose as if she was running forward.
Doing drawings with foreshortening can be difficult, so it was a decent effort anyway.

What I recommend is basically what was stated below, just get into some more life drawing.
Don't worry about all the detail in the beginning, just get the form down first, and then work the details in.

Keep working at it, you've made progress since your first drawing and you can continue to get better.

Dangerice responds:

Thanks Man. I appreciate your constructive criticism and will do my best to improve my skills based on the feedback you gave me.

I notice you are drawing a lot of the characters in the same general pose, looking forward at the viewer.

Not that it's bad, it's just that it feels repetitive. Maybe you can try to draw the character from a different angle or pose.

I do like that you are doing original characters though, It's nice to see an attempt at something new.

Keep it up!

Dangerice responds:

Yup.....Well, Most of the Earlier ones are Pretty Simple, but Recently I've been going for Other Angles/Positions/Etc. I Think I'll Start Drawing Less Original Characters soon, as I Find there are Only so Many Traits in a Character's Appearance. I Find that I'm Better at Drawing from a Picture I can See Anyhow. If You'd Like a Sketch, just Send Me a Message and I'll Try to get it Done. Your Feedback is Appreciated. :)

I assume that you are just getting into digital art.
Just so you know everybody is not so good when first start out.

For this drawing, the line work is a little messy and the lighting does not make sense.
The posts on opposite sides have light coming from opposite direction and do not add up with the lighting on the character's face. Also, it appears that light is on top of the character's head.

I can see what you were going for but it came out a bit skewed.
If your were planning on having 4 light sources (from all directions) there wouldn't really be much shadow on the character, just on a few points.

Try to focus on one or two light sources, it will make it much easier.

Aside from that, the face and hair is drawn out pretty good.

Keep at it, you will get better.

Not bad, simple, but has a nice feel.

treebutt responds:

Thanks :) I'm still learning the ins and outs of digital painting, or computer art, or whatever you want to call it. I intend to make dumb little animations, to make people laugh, one day. hopefully*
