Character Sketches! (Up for Critique)

Posted by MegDraws - October 10th, 2020


Before I jump into this, I just wanted to let y’all know that everything is back to normal over here! The air is fresh and the sky is blue and beautiful again! So we’re doing pretty good :D


Okay, back to the topic at hand!

My older sister Sibspook creates amazing art that I’ve always admired, and I’ve always wanted to be able to draw as good as her. So the other day I asked her how she did anatomy, and if she could teach me... to which she gladly indulged me!


I learned a lot from her, and I decided to put my newfound knowledge to use, and tested it on my characters Nix, Eva, and Callie, a third character I haven’t introduced yet.


(I forgot to add, I’ve changed up their

designs again, so they’ll look a little different than the last time I drew them. it also shows my little reactions next to them...I loved them too much xD)

Here’s the results!

I’m really happy with how he came out, the anatomy is sooo much better than normal! Though Nix’s face shape turned out a bit different than what I originally imagined for him, which somehow made him look a little handsome... I mean, I’m not complaining, I’m just happy it turned out good! Might make him a little less attractive, though... xD

Eva is still adorable, I don’t really have much I can say about her. Her design is a little plain, but she is an Angel-in-training, so I wouldn’t expect her to have too many inhuman features yet. I’m still working on that though... Any suggestions for her design would be very appreciated! I can’t come up with much else ;-;

And here we have Callie, who is Nix’s imp friend! Right now her design is of a standard imp, which will also probably go through some changes. She’s a lot smaller than how I drew her (like one or two feet tall, or for those of you outside of the U.S, 30 to 60 cm. Darn you, metric system!) I drew her eyes a little big in this, but maybe it will translate better when I draw her tiny, who knows?


...and there you have it! My three characters with a bit of a design and style change! I’m really happy with them, but of course there’s always room for improvement... which is why I’m asking for critique!


I’d love to know what you all think of them, what I could do to make them better, and even design elements I could add to make them a bit more interesting. (That last one is more for Eva and Callie, I’m pretty satisfied with Nix’s design. But that doesn’t mean I’ll refuse any suggestions for him!)


Thank you all for reading, I’m excited to see what you people have to say! :D

Hey, I just woke up! :)

lol, I wish I just woke up. I’m in a different time zone 3 hours ahead right now :P

Cool!

Thanks! :3

@PBSfanboy @MegPeg New York? Brazil? SOmewhere near the Atlantic Ocean? Is either of your parent in the military?

I’m in Ohio, actually! We’re just on a bit of a trip, exploring and such. We’re making sure to stay safe, though!

Nice

Now you can change your name, join a supporter party in the BBS, and use the NG chat!

Cool! :D

Hey Meg, wanna join a private chat?
https://chat.newgrounds.com/channel/u9iJXMU7nu_RPgFnhb6p3

Sure, sounds fun!

Meg, we need to make a new private chat every time we want a private chat. the old link is invalid. :/

aw maaan :c

@PBSfanboy @MegPeg Either at least one of us has to never close the tab or we'll keep flooding the news post. Are you still doing your homework? I'll expect at least an hour :D

yeah I am still working on homework, I just check in here from time to time :P

Hey, almost an hour passed by. Ready to come to join?
I won't close the tab until I say I have to sleep.

Sorry, I don't think I'll be able to chat for the rest of tonight. I have a bunch of stuff I want to work on. Maybe tomorrow, though! :D

@PBSfanboy @MegPeg Okay! Let's meet up at 4 pm tomorrow! In Pacific Standard Timezone. Can you do that?

Yeah! I'll only be able to talk until 4:30pm though. PM me the link for the chat at 4 and I'll be sure to join you!
