(i know its not that great, but i would love some good crits

)

ha i like that, if you come asking for critics here youl end up with people saying that your character has broken bones, or that its ok for something you drew in class. they dont realise that guildwars is based on magic for gods sake! i really like the shapes you used for the wind to add motion. nice

just because it's magic based doesn't mean that humans can just do whatever they want. I'm going to assume that is a ritualist. The left arm and left leg are very oddly positioned for me. Maybe you meant it to be viewed differently,but with no forshortening or any other detail it's kind of hard to make out all of the details. maybe if it were larger?

tnks... i made that without thinking of how its supposed to shape >< just drew some spiral thingy XD what bugs me tho is i forgot to ink some parts, that and the fact that the staff looks crappy :P

im gonna try and do more sketches... its prolly gonna be another rit...

hey anyone wanna try and color the drawing? im pretty bad at coloring...

yes its a ritualist

i tried making it look like the rit is doing her casting animation... its supposed to be viewed front head on nothing special...

Haroldinium : hm... i just did it this way, sketch, darken details, photocopied (this is for extra when i mess up inking, and it also removes some of my light sketch) inked... gonna try and learn some cleaning in photoshop/fireworks =/

from now on im gonna make this my art dump XD

My father had a fountain pen and we have about 6 bottles full of ink for it, but he lost it, or I would be drawing in real life all the time and inking things. If you want to color it, it's easy enough to do in photoshop using selections or a tablet just for painting them on. In paint even, you can do the basic paint-bucket for an unshaded version, carefully painting in smaller shadow details carefully after.
