speedofsound Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 .........*deep breath* No shading, no linework, poorly colored, poorly drawn, no straightness, unrealistic. I really recommend looking at some sort of tutorial befor you go attempting these kinds of things. I am sure that you are excited about your first and such but you really should take some more time and effort. There are some really nice tutorials in the resources sticky. You can't ever find a place that's nice and peaceful, because there isn't any. You may think there is, but once you get there, when you're not looking, somebody'll sneak up and write "(bleep) you" right under your nose. Try it sometime. I think, even, if I ever die, and they stick me in a cemetery, and I have a tombstone and all, it'll say "Holden Caulfield" on it, and then what year I was born and what year I died, and then right under that it'll say "(bleep) you."

Dankar30 Posted December 19, 2006 Author Share Posted December 19, 2006 it's a Caricature. It's not meant to be realistic. You know those street artists that draw people with giant heads? Yeah, those are Caricatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripsis Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 it's a Caricature. It's not meant to be realistic. You know those street artists that draw people with giant heads? Yeah, those are Caricatures. I wouldn't really classify your drawings as Caricatures :? Yours are almost exactly like the screenshots themselves, just redone in a drawing program with the paint brush. Caricatures are more like.. Cartoony exaggerations of people. You know: big heads, exaggerated physical features that reflect personality, humerous, etc.. I don't see any of that in your drawings :? - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A representation, especially pictorial or literary, in which the subject's distinctive features or peculiarities are deliberately exaggerated to produce a comic or grotesque effect. I don't see any deliberately exaggerated features, nor do I see any comic or grotesque effects. In fact I'm afraid the only way you could perhaps argue that those are caricatures is that they are in fact "representations". :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dankar30 Posted December 19, 2006 Author Share Posted December 19, 2006 yeah, but it seems eveyone is focusing on labeling it instead of constructive criticism, just because I said it's not supposed to be realistic because it's a Caricature, which it is not, i guess.

I didn't mean anything rude by it, I was just trying to help you turn your drawings into real Caricatures and I gave you advice on how to do it (or at least told you the proper definition of a Caricature). If you'd rather us give you comments and constructive criticism on your images as they are and not as potential Caricatures, I can do that as well. -- Overall the images have pretty good structures. I would suggest going more in depth with shading. I'm not sure which program you're using (if it's Photoshop I can give you some shading pointers. But if it's not, I probably can't help you much). In the little shading you have done, try blending the colours a bit more with more midtones. When I shade, I usually use between 3-10 different shades of the same colour. I use low flow (15%-25%) and full opacity to set down the basic shades. I then go back later with low flow and low opacity (10%-50%) to blend the colours together a bit more. Also, for the first picture especially, try using smaller brush sizes for the little details (i.e. the black lines on the cape). I think it's look better if they were (1) straighter and (2) smaller lines, but maybe a few more lines. If that makes sense. I hope that was a bit more what you were looking for and I hope it helps. - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend_Gaara Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 It's true people try to label; I'm sure most are just doing it to help you out - without the intention of insulting anyone!

Yeah, those are Caricatures. no you idiot... that would be a japanese type of art called chibi... When your rude about something make sure of two things 1) you dont sound like a complete [developmentally delayed] while saying it. 2) you are correct. You fail at both. Caricatures have over dramatized features, and most street artists ARE doing caricatures. Chibi is characterized by stubby bodys about the same size as the head, with innocent looking qualities. Both are similar in concept, the classification of the two cant be made until the finished product is made. Much like cartoon/manga classification. thanks everyone for the sigs!
