Looks like I'm just going post the new works on this first thread and keep pushing images down to older threads.

^was thinking of pink skin for this one. 

^some character drawings for a long animation piece I'm doing. 

^concept drawings from a finished animation piece.

Hey these are good drawings, from what i can see, some of the images are a little pale but can just make them out. You unfairly cut yourself down by sating " Good for laugh in the middle of the night"

Keep it up and post some more.

i like the guy with the rocket launchers on his back!

Thanks! Yeah, I should really color him in and add a background.

You should add some detail to it in pencil before you color it.

Or if you have a pen tablet and photoshop you can build as you go...

 I can imagine him infront of a smoldering urban scene.

that is a brilliant idea!

Instead of the contrast tool just use brightness/contrast. you should try changing the pencil lines colors into a different color. maybe blue or tan.

kick ass line work

hi neeko. 

They are good... Horned creatures on the rock and dragon... for me the best

I think to improve, try to produce:

• more loose iterations i.e try filling a A4 page with say 9 (3,3,3) thumbnails of designs. Make them LOOSE, rough and trying primarily to get the overall shape and form before adding any details
• Workup = from these designs, feel free to produce 3-4 pages worth of loose rough designs.
  
• From all of these, choose a few images you like. around 3-5 max
• These shapes, you should now retrace/detail and aim to get more proportions and anatomy right.
• From these, choose one image to produce a full line drawing. Make it as clean as possible.
  
• You now havea  good production line art drawing. ready for use in different media

Thanks for the replies all! 

Gurch -I think you may be able to use a fill adjustment layer on the line art layer to change the color to something like blue. Ill check it out and let you know.

Koshime - Thanks for the large advice for improvement. I've rarely ever try to draw the same thing twice as I just sketch and move on. Maybe repetition is what I need to get better. I'll give this a shot and post up.

Reply to Gurch....

 You can use HUE/SATURATION and adjust them that way...
