Sketch of a (Deca) Octopus

[woopidoo2]

Ive made this Octopus during class, I started in 10 minutes, next day the remaining time. (total 30 minutes)

 

 

 

Its not done yet, but I wanted to show you in advance:

 

 

 

(the curves at the right arent made by me)

 

 

 

 

Please tell me what to do different, I allready changed the shading alot.

 

 

 

Thanks! :)

[woopidoo2]

I cant help it, im bad at maths :)

 

 

 

No, it was just my imagination instead of my ''How much tentacles has my octopus'' Skills.

 

 

 

:roll:

 

 

 

 

 

(if this is a problem, i call it a Decapus. :) )

Peh... Just blame the 10 tentacles on Global warming... That's what almost everything is being blamed on recently...

 

 

 

Anyway, quite good, but the eyes need a little more detail, and shading around the upper lids.

Amen dude... Amen..

 

 

 

Its nice but looks sepia-toned :/

[Smile]

Try drawing a penguin!

 

Penguins are awesome. :P

that is possibly the worst attempt at drawing ive seen posted on a forum :roll:

 

 

 

firstly there is shading but about 1/2 of it is wrong not to mention its very messy shading. your octopus is also very 2d due to the lack of in-appropriate shading

 

 

 

also when you want to draw somthing keep in mind u should know what your drawing before you draw it unless your doing some unplanned abstract.

 

 

 

there are many other things wrong with your pic easy-put by saying the whole image is wrong.

 

 

 

just keep practising and you will get alot better dude, if you dont already have a scetch book just buy one an fill it up with scetch after scetch with anything.... some things u could scetch would be people (making sure u considering the human anatomy and drawing it properly... atleast trying to anyway)... but drawing depends on what u want to draw.

 

 

 

sorry for the harsh comments but its only going to help you improve, just practise more and when u think your drawings are at a forum standard post them.

 

 

 

Goodluck.

[bigsword33]

PLEASE! i dare you to do a liger. if you do, and make a good one, i'll be seriously amazed.

 

 

 

for this drawing i would make the eyes more realistic. as in round, more to the sides, and much larger irises.

Well see the problem is, he made it in class. You draw in class out of shear bordem or spare time. Buying a sketch (thats right, its spelled s k e t c h) book is a waste of money and time, ruled paper or white paper will do just as well as anything else. When drawing something out of bordem you dont limit yourself to real-world things; infact, ANY time you draw you dont limit yourself to real-world things.

 

 

 

Limiting your self puts strains on your imagination and the freedom to draw what you want should come natural anyway, maybe if we didnt have such great sketchers raising the bar for pad and pencil drawings he wouldnt be getting the criticism he is now.

 

 

 

This sketch looks like it was meant to be cartoony- not a real octopus. Correct me if im wrong, but that CC seemed a little too harsh to be helpful.

Thats a bit harsh...

whats diffrent with a sKetch pad and paper? nothing? why are u correcting me?

 

 

 

i didnt say anything about making it look like the real world, hence me saying; "but drawing depends on what u want to draw." i said nothing of this.. but wat i was trying to get through was that his style needs improving as it should so i provided him with some useful information..

 

ontop of that i have no idea what your talking about... i said nothing of what your telling me not to say? i said nothing of limiting your self, i only said things about improvement.

 

 

 

oh and C/C is meant to be harsh its critisism.. unless you would rather me say "omgawd! GRATE!!!!! WOowwww111!!11!111 11/10 YOUR LIEK 1EE7"

 

the point is if there is nothing nice to point out or there are no positives i wont and dont have anything to say that is anymore positive that encouraging him by saying goodluck and telling him how he can improve.

I was being quite polite in my debate, lets not play the role of sarcasm here and stop this minor quarrel.

 

 

 

Moral of the story is: dont place needless statements like: "that is possibly the worst attempt at drawing ive seen posted on a forum :roll:" in constructive criticism. That is niether constructive nor positive.
