One of My Fursona's Biomech arm attributes.

The Plasma blade is white, and I hope I did the surrounding aura right.

Originally I was gonna make a shadow on the back to show a devil like wing, but I left that out. Reveals too much of him.

And if he was saying something, it'd be: "Gotta remeber to thank the Doc later."

thing is I kinda drew the back leg a little "Flat" as it were.

I like it.

here's my critique, if you don't mind:

the arms are still too short, he looks way too short, and the upper leg is too long.

the right knee looks like it's at the level of the ankle, and it really looks like it'd be painful for him to walk.

Plasma Blades?

if it's plasma, then try giving the aura a bit of a misty effect, and make the aura simpler.

it doesn't have a solid form, so comuunicate that.

try getting an artist's mannequin, they can really help with proportions and foreshortening.

the hair looks unnatural, and like a rag on top of his head, and the cape really looks off.

remember, cloth twists as well as folds.


my advice

study the way things move, and how they react to other things (Enstein's theory of relativity is your friend )

before you actually draw things like the human figure and clothes, do some preliminary sketches, first, that way you can figure out where you want things, and fix mistakes before you make them.

fill entire sketchbooks with drawing of paws, and clothes, hands and orbs.

observe, don't just look.

see how things bend and contort, and how they react.

I can always count on you for cdritique and advice.

anyway thanks. And I know I drew the arms to short, I just don't know why.

I already mentioned I messed up on the legs.

He's LEANING against the wall so he's supposed to be a little shorted than usual, but I did draw him too small.

and currently I won't be getting out and about much untill september (School is my only reason for leaving the house right now )

Well, I think anything I say critique-wise after gen wont be of any more help, so I present to you a thumbs up! *thumbs up*

and the paradox is, I can't draw nearly as well as I sound .

I sort of redrew Aaron, I hope It's okay.

It's not finished yet, and I forgot to save the OCI file .

EDIT: I looked up 'Plasma' on Wikipedia, and... well... READ IT,

I sort of redrew Aaron, I hope It's okay.

Please, I encourage people to draw my characters, helps me better adjust my characters. I do better with viusual refrences than just words. so If I see someone draw one of my characters in one version, I have a better time drawing them myself.

For an example, take the most oiginal version of the angel Jack.

Note how Crappy the wings look.

Now, I asked Moddex/Veirge a while back to redraw him his way, and it came out like this:

Note how much better he looks, what with the armor and wings.

Eventually I began to alter Jack acording to Moddex's drawing, and came up with this:

AND HE'S STILL BE ALTERED TODAY. (caps Lock ) Now what with what you drew for the sword... I finally have a good base for it.[/img]
