That Chun is Great SFMC! Are you going to show us how you color your sketches with that one. :wgrin:

specular alex. SO much definittion in the muscles.

Thx guys. I’ll try and comment later.

Well thats a wrap. Sorry for posting early, but just wanted to get this done so I can focus on y other projects and make this sketchbook.

Impressive as ever. I might have to ask you if I can make one of my signiture ghetto avs out of that pic.

ViciousSLASH is my hero. If you could make one with him putting her in the sleeper I’ll Paypal yo ass :bgrin:

Just do it - Nice Aluma. I think you could push some of the highlights more though. Overall very nice.

Fendy - Very nice Necro! Legs could use a bit of work, but overall this is how Necro should look. Super job. Hugo is looking snazzy too. Very good stuff.

Stranger. Good start man. Try to get your proportion correct before anything. I’m curious why you chose the blue bg to start off on.

Cp good Akuma, although i think he could be alot buffer.

That’s sweet man. Like the shadow silhouette on Hugos legs. I think you could make Hugo bit bigger just to show exaggerations. Just a thought.

Vslash - that’s a hard pose to pull off, but you did good on it. Yeah just watch Alex’s heel. The heel should align near the bottom part of the gluts(butt).

Dfist - Nice Ken, Elena, and Necro. Ken I already gave you crits on. Elena arm could be longer. Necro is tops man. Very nice echoing of shapes everywhere. This is one of your best poses yet.

Rook man - Very nice start. I’m curious on why you chose the bg color. Not that it’s bad or anything. Can’t wait to see it finished!

Keep it up guys and gals.

Oh and Colt Steele. Be my guest man. You still play lagbox btw? 3s online totally ruined my experience so I quit after that. Cannot parry worth a damn online.

I do. But VERY rarely. I have to be in right mood(read: drunk as a lord)to put up with lagbox. The offline scene is stirring in my area again, if it takes off hopefully I can put away lagbox and start using the internet again for what it was intended: eBay and porn.

Here is Elena … giggle…

Some crazy good work on here lately, I still have to catch up. oh well.

nice pose man. very like elena. I like the way you shade her crotch so that it stands back. you got the light coming from both side on her body and just from the right on her face. She looks like she is on her toes instead of her whole feet, because they aren’t grounded. That takes some weight away from her figure.

Anatomy is kinda funny/off, but it still has its charms

modified elena loosing pose :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh man, that’s cute yet at the same time sort of naughty. She looks like she’s missing the back strap of her top though? Or is it hidden from that angle?

wow, just realized how long it’s been since I posted comments in this thread…

Cpt: nice work on Hugo. Elena pic I think I already commented on S-C :slight_smile:

SFMC: good stuff as always, Elena pic captures her personality perfectly. What’s wrong with Akuma’s hands btw? I don’t see it.
Twelve’s head seems a bit small.
Sweeeeet pic of Chun. great nonchalant expression.
Totally boss Alex pic. very nice, one of my faves.
Nice dynamic Gill pic, throw in a fire effect and it’ll knock everyone’s socks off :slight_smile:

Kandoken: whoa, hot Akuma pic. “ten” effect on the back is kinda lost in all the colour, though.

aku: heh, Hugo vs Gief is classic.

Sheng-Long: your style is really great, works very well.
Elena looks more like she’s posing for an ad than anything else – arm doesn’t seem comfortable.
I love how Hugo looks like Andre, Chun’s shouting bloody murder = LOL

Switcher: Like everyone else, I think the Hugo pic looks better without Poison.
Alex and Elena pics look good.

Hanzou: like DFist mentioned, Yang’s looking kinda flat some parts.

VSlash: choice Makoto pic, nice dynamism.
Hugo pic feels solid, anatomy needs to be tightened up. Urien is ok.
Alex/Chun pic is good. Unusual to depict point-of-contact in an action scene, generally pics will turn out more dynamic if you depict before or after the contact.

fendygit: I have no idea what Yang’s trying to do… Might want to watch the knuckle arc of his right hand, looks too flat to be natural.
Necro pic is awesome.
Hugo pic looks like a panel out of “Tales From The Crypt” – creepy… in a good way :slight_smile:
nice natural Elena, DFist has a lot of good points – esp the one abt the foot placement.

DFist: hahahahhaha @ Hugo squashing Chun. reminds me of the in-game sprite. Good colours as usual.
Ken’s left hand seems a bit short, should reach mid-thigh or thereabouts.
Necro looks like a spinning top :slight_smile: Main crit would be to darken/desat left hand to throw it backwards and give him a bigger head :slight_smile:
Elena colours are really nice, left hand feels unnaturally cropped though – it’s a digital painting, just expand the canvas. Also neck shadows seem too strong for the rest of the pic, making her neck look too thin.

Stranger to me: nice Hugo, would be better if we could see more of his face though
Elena pic – good start.

Star: pity abt the Alex vs Urien pic, it looks like it could develop into something fun. Necro pic is good, Flash really is your thing, huh?

Midnight: love the Necro/Effie pic!
not quite sure what’s going on in the Yun/Yang pic
Hugo + pipe = final fight memories.

Wombat: cool Akuma, but light source is a bit all over the place. also try adding more blue tone to jawline – works very well for masculine chars (implied stubble)

Just D it: very cool pic, love the use of light. why is Akuma’s left knee in the light though? I would have thought that highlight was unnecessary… pic would work just as well without it.

Photon/4neqs: Anime style Hugo, quite handsome actually :slight_smile:

Ron: b+fierce should launch Hugo for db+fierce juggle. j/k, love the action.


SFMC – it’s a pink bg because I’m using Painter Essentials, it’s hard to change the bg colour after I’m done with everything :stuck_out_tongue: Also trying to use it as an underlayer that shows through the acrylic brush.

quick Hugo, taking time off Akuma for now…
I need to get that Bridgeman book on anatomy when I can find the time XP

Edited Elena pic upped:

better contrast between lights and darks, improved framing and Elephant is actually discernable this time.

Man, you guys are beastin through, and I’m barely playing catch up on my own challenge! All of the recent entries have really been spectacular.

I skipped Elena, but I’ll get back to her later. Here’s my Akuma:

OOOooooo the skills in this tread are INSANE!!!

Here’s Elena

Elena

http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/3134/elena2web6nv.jpg

A bit disgruntled about how the legs come out.

And Oro

http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/2042/oro2web1vw.jpg

Saw a guy in the supermarket that looked HEAPS like Oro (Minus the red eyes and Yellow skin etc…), I wish I took a picture for reference :wink:

Sorry I haven’t had time to crit and comment. Been away on Pavement art business. Just imagine Lots and lots of praise. Everyones kicking so much ASS!

Sheng-Long: I really like how you use mood in your pics. That’s the most mellow Akuma I’ve ever seen – subtle “ten” kanji on his back is a nice touch.

Ron: kongorou-kokuretsuzan! looks good.

Cpt: you’ve posted Elena in this thread already man :slight_smile:
Oro pic is cool.

DFist: I’m liking the Chun pose and all, but her supraorbital arch is too pronounced and the hook of her nose combine to give her pretty masculine features. Also too many crease lines in the hip/groin area.
