Here is the piece I just finished today :3 Advice? I like the way the clouds came out (If you can see them through the rain), but I think the grass and the sky could be better, not to mention the lighting and shading. This is my OC Moon in one of her other outfits (clothing folds with me = no knowledge or skill) and she's fighting in the rain, I might update it with a little blood. I started this sketch in October, finally got around to finishing it, but it was so bad, I had to alter the sketch a lot on the computer. Speedpaint will be uploaded to my YouTube soon ^^ Made in Paint Tool Sai You may NOT use this in any way without permission from me. Update - I fixed it a bit, and here it is :3

Very nice! I especially love the glow around the lightning. Maybe making the lighting a little more drastic, with heavy dark shading on everything not being directly lit by the bolt? Then you could bring in that bright white on top of her head and on the inner wing edges. Keep up the great work! It's very clean!

It's really good!! Compliments The shading around the lightning gives it a glowing effect, which is perfect since it is lightning and all! The dark ominous clouds fit the setting and make the scene look both real, and fantasy like! The character's anatomy is awesome for the picture's style, and that weapon looks so cool!! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/6575102/images/Zk1a5XUEHw6Q8FG1L5Qy.gif) Advice darken the edges of the picture, it'll create contrast with the lightning and give it more of an I'm a powerful character vibe and flesh out the piece a little more Change the character's free hand to be a fist, it'll add to the piece and help hide fingers (because those are the hardest things in the dang world to draw!) The easiest way to do grass (other than drawing each strand or using a special brush) is to vary the shades of green, it gives the grass an imperfect appearance and helps make it look more real. Also, along the edges of the grass, it curls between the fingers and hides the bottom of the knee and anything else it's touching (eg. the tail) I hope that helps! The piece is really good, it looks amazing!

Aww, thanks so much! The weapon design was made by Sparkscatter, and I loved it so much I made it part of her design. Ad yes, fingers are the hardest things in the dang world to draw, and it doesn't look like it, but I hid them in the grass ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/6575102/images/Zk1a5XUEHw6Q8FG1L5Qy.gif) Thanks, I'll alter it tonight and try to make it look a little better, then I'll post it here!

some things i'm seeing are anatomy, facial, and hand issues. i get that all three things are difficult to master, but starting on them is so much better than leaving it. try studying anatomy and how the hand grips different items, as one thing i'm seeing is the hand gripping to staff looks a little wonky and does not seem to be proportional to the rest of the body and image. i'm seeing that the shoulders are off and the clothes don't follow the body, i suggest looking at reference images and poses that are close to what you want to draw, and working from there. i do like how you did the shading, it's clean and good for your skill level! there's always room for improvement, however, to be the best that you can be. i hope this helps!
