WIP Rapheal
 

feel free to critique+

no its not done just trying to put more quality in my work than quanity

You've really got to work on your proportions. The legs are way too long/wide, for example.

actually I wanted them that long, that my artistic touch. Had I wanted everything proportionate I would have drew something like the "original" tmnt drawing. Anything else you see I could work on?

Given your response I'd assume anything else I'd criticize would be considered 'stylized'.

I agree with Powder about the legs and I would centered the drawing a littlle more,but otherwise well done. The tail suggest your going for a Mirage inspiration. Perhaps a Lawson style? Anyway,I love the sais and the shell above all on the drawing.

I had almost forgotten about that strip we collaborated on a few months back. Hope that turned out well!

Don't be a douche... I understand you like the whole passive aggressive stance on everything, or do you consider it dark, brooding, and smartassed? I don't know if you have something to prove to someone or, are you constantly looking for an "arch nemesis?" It's sad and really obvious that most of the stuff you "like" is only done by yourself, people moving up in the industry (at least trying to) or people in the industry. Why you feel the need to kiss ass is beyond me, Its ok to say hey its neat or that's a cool pic, without having an attitude. When you look at the pic and say proportions are wrong look at the pic again here allow me to nitpick... I drew the shell too small, legs to long, hands to big, sias are relatively too large and unrealistic. OBVIOUSLY, I was taking artistic leeway. Its obvious i took leeway and you're nitpicking like in your "original" style. I think you put over weight t-Rex arms on them. Your mimic work is better however. If you are that angry in life maybe you should change things in the real world and quit getting mad at the virtual world. You have the need to feel important, that is very clear. If you are looking for someone to fight and argue with its not me. If I'm wrong then I'm wrong but I know your comments have gone on way to long with people getting banned because of you. I know you will have something very witty to say as to negate this. I know I'm not the only one that has ever told you this and that's just on here. Either before or after your next comment some one comes in and says "ah that's just powder being powder you'll get use to him" which that's like basically saying "the guys a prick you will learn to ignore him."

Thanks for your critique, I didn't negate it. I just thought the style I was going for was prevalent, Ill try harder I guess next time.

I was just doodling for a a couple of min and really liked it. I wasnt trying to go for anything I was messing around while waiting on a videogame to load.

as for our strip i didnt like how it was turning out so If you want it I can redo but forget what you saw before they were ******.

If your just messing around with that just think what you could churn out when you try real hard.All-star quality for sure!

As for our little project,do if and when you feel like it work on it again.If not I just had fun enough writting a 4 page strip. :tgrin:

yeah I didnt mean to do that decent effing off, but I want to get better as Im working on something with sean taylor

also what was that dcu board?

If you post work in a public forum, asking for critique, receive it, and then claim that's just your style, then it's fairly clear you DON'T want critique. There's nothing passive aggressive about it, you just choose to interpret my comments as a personal attack because you don't like what I have to say. I'm not responsible for your improper perceptions. It's clear I've somehow struck a nerve because you suddenly felt compelled to try and psychoanalyze me and insult my work, completely out of left field, as if to 'retaliate' against my evil words. Get over it.

& for the record, I don't know what you're basing any of your assessments on, I kiss no ass. For example, when Kuhns Michelangelo issue came out I was very vocally against his art, & I've given Tom Waltz a lot of sh*t for his writing. & in each instance I gave legitimate critique without attitude. & even here, in the fan-works section, I have given praise to users like Toby Barett, Koschei, & others for their art. Quite simply, dear sir, "u mad".

Did I call it?

:tlol::lol::tlol:

I did not choose to interpret your words as an attack, you do this a lot on here. Whether it be a simple question to just throwing your two cents in something just to say "duh" to another user. I did not insult your work, I never mentioned the arms in your drawings because all of your pictures are like that, that's how you draw, I get it. Anyone could clearly see that, in all honesty there has only been one picture that I have seen where things were almost proportionate with the turtles.

Obviously the "u mad" should be directed towards your response. I asked if anything else should be worked upon and your "dark, brooding and smartassness" had to come out. Have you not seen when a new user shows up someone has to intervene and say "oh that's just powder you'll get use to him"? Clearly you are not blind. I have seen it happen around 5-10 times by different users basically telling new users to ignore you.

I don't feel like I am wrong. I just grow tired of your constant passive aggressive I KNOW IT ALL responses. Again if you are looking for an "arch-nemesis" it is not me, I am not your shredder.

My point is, you felt offended and started attacking my character. My behavior has nothing to do with your 'artistic leeway', so I don't see the need to bring it into question. But by all means, continue to study me. I'm flattered. Ah, and please do feel free to put me on ignore if you find my posts so bothersome.

I like it, are you using the new cartoon as a model? The legs look like the new cartoon legs, it is not my style, if I even have a style lol.

Keep working.

Consider yourself luck to get such detailed feedback!}

Most of the times that I solicit for help or constructive criticisms, everybody just ignores my poor thread. :tcry: :twink:

...

Anyhoo, regarding your Raph. I like the pose but it's hard for me to really get a sense of its perspective because the file size is SO large. Maybe if you resize it something more manageable, I can get a better feel for it.

I didnt feel offended just no reason to be an ass.

my response...
Your reply...
see you made yourself out to be an ass.

Will do .

I was more than likely subliminally doing it. I was just doodling inbetween matches of black ops 2. It just turned out good. I been working on a comic with s taylor. so its hard to draw what Id like anymore. If everything goes in our favor he will be pitching to IDW. The problem is according to their rules on being hired you have to be published to work there. He is Im not so hopefully his credits will pull me in. So Im trying Im taking my time to get my proportions correct. I have the script but cant release it, of corse but I can show peeps his sight for the comics.

How was I an ass? What I thought was improper by the standard TMNT design, turned out to just be creative license. That's the point I made. Any additional criticisms I would have provided were in regards to the exaggerated features that you made by choice. Stylized. Aaaaand then you decided to throw a fit at me... Call this passive aggressive if you want, but if anyone made an ass of themselves it was you.

Thank, azrael.

Even though the legs are very long, I can't really say they are "too long" relative to mutant turtle anatomy. :tlol:

I think I'd probably have a better feeling about the piece if the feet were visible in the picture. The legs just seem like they'll keep on going down forever. Did you plan to cut the feet off the bottom or did you just run out of room? That happens to me sometimes!

I think the sais are very nicely done, however.
