 Re: Art Dump
It looks really nice, but the face doesn't look as good as it does in the image on the left. There's just something about that face that makes me not want to ♥♥♥♥ with him.

 Re: Art Dump
Guy on the left looks like a "you don't ♥♥♥♥ with me" grizzled veteran. Guy on the right looks kinda younger, and doesn't have the "I've been through many things" look. I still like him though.

 Re: Art Dump
They both look like their arms are too short or their legs are too long.

 Re: Art Dump
Thanks for the feedback guys. Certainly I worry sometimes about the scale of things like the head, body, and limbs all in relation to each other, something which will probably even itself out over time. I totally agree that the legs and arms are kind of weird here. And yeah in regards to the face, a side effect of the simplistic direction I've gone in; however now that this has been highlighted, I'll take a look into putting some wear into that face. edit:  New face

 Re: Art Dump
@Bombzero: Correct anatomy and proportion has nothing to do with style, even cartoonists who draw completely anthropomorphic characters like Spongebob have some understanding of proportion. Style takes a back seat when it comes to fundamentals. @Matty: facial features are looking pretty solid for how simple they are, your older drawing has a really thin gaunt face, I had the same thing going on with my earlier drawings, when I would draw a face I would only draw really thin old looking faces. I think it's a common thing for beginners to over-emphasize the wrinkles and prominent features of faces, making them look like old people. Now I think he looks pretty young, not because of his face, but because the rest of his body looks small in proportion to his head. Something also hits me as odd with the legs, they seem to be too big, and the groin of his pants seem too high up. It seems to me that with all the combat gear his torso would surely look a bit thicker and heavier than his legs. EDIT: Took a break from bows and did a quick dwarf, Yolarc the Discoverer

I took a picture of a picture I drew because I have no scanner. It is of this card.
