It's a curse tho! I've tried drawing realistic/scary stuff and they ended up looking cute..

its one of those "the audience likes the work but the artist is deeply dissatisfied because they can not express their artistic vision" things?

As far as cartoon heads go, he's not so far from average really- I mean, depending on the artist. If you look at the Fairly Odd Parents they're all about half a head tall.

Also, it's a bit late to be dressing up as Spider-Man for Halloween.

Art Trade with Dubz!

LucidDarkness · Post by **LucidDarkness** » Fri Nov 05, 2010 3:30 pm

I'm glad, Dub~! I'm sorry it took so long for me to finish.

And to prove JUST how much a slacker I am:

HouseDog: Remember that semi-art-trade we did a really long time ago! I finished it way back then and completely forgot to scan it and all for you! ><
So without further ado, here it is!

Sorry it took me forrrrreeeeever! ><

My fursona. Not that any of yall' would care anyway.

Tiggy · Post by **Tiggy** » Fri Nov 05, 2010 4:14 pm

If I were to be honest, that streak in the middle looks a bit weird to me.

Thats just me tho, and I like your art Zander, shush >:[

Blue Braixen · Post by **Blue Braixen** » Fri Nov 05, 2010 4:15 pm

It's good, he just has big hands.
Really big hands.

LucidDarkness · Post by **LucidDarkness** » Fri Nov 05, 2010 4:21 pm

Anatomically speaking, his hands are actually pretty accurate. In an adult, your hands (with fingers extended) are the same size as your face. Everyone else just makes small hands. I sure know I do! xD

But those are actually pretty great, Zander! Very crisp looking, despite being done apparently in graphite. :3

**My only qualms would be just a matter of difference in style. ^^;

I was just about to mention that, Zander.

I thought it was just that people make big heads, not small hands. Considering how most furry artists draw in a cartoony style, I'd say that's more likely.

Looking into his eyes is like looking into another world. I love it!

LucidDarkness · Post by **LucidDarkness** » Fri Nov 05, 2010 4:36 pm

*defends Zander*

Fur pattern is really hard to portray in a drawing without color or shading. It's more of a visual reminder that there is a difference in color.

:3

By the way, why does everyone else get critiques with constructive criticism when they post a pic, but I only get "Good job"s. :<
