I need critiques.

As the title says, I need critiques. Not those that say,

'It's great! Just work a bit more on ...blahblahblah.'

Be as harsh as you can. Don't ask. For some reason, I find it better to accept.

[Yes, I know the sky's green. I was too lazy.]

Let's see...

The lineart's a bit too thick and it has a sort of sketchy quality, and the background has next to no lineart (it's much better aesthetically if you stick to one throughout the picture) the grass looks a bit too.. symmetrical.. it doesn't seem to have much variety, the dinosaur picture could have some more shading; the only places with shading as of now are certain areas of the tree and I don't recommend a green sky with a green dino. Do a purple one next time XD

@celeste

- I was trying to make it look sketchy XD
-Oh crap. I did NOT notice that. In my art pogram, I had the lines for the tree.... I think I put it off sight (That eye thing on layers) when I copied it to Paint... oAo
-I used a paint style to the grass because I was just THAT lazy.
-Again, I was too lazy. Maybe I'll get back to the painting and burn it.
-I used the gradient fill...Totally forgot about the green at the end. I just wanted to make the sun look like a REAL sun [In which I failed OTL] and give it a jungle theme thing.
-I'll try! 😃

Edit: I really want a tablet now.

-the color and shading around the neck alternates. Keep the shading to a side and add more lighter colors to the neck, then blend it.
-The water is flat?! And again, alternating colors
-How come the colors in the front are darker than the back?
.A. You don't need a tablet.
Get a pencil
Sketch
Trace with pen
Scan
Path the parts you wanna color.
Color~
shade~
done.

-The program doesn't let me to unless I buy the whole thing.
-IT'S NOT FLAT D:
-The water? Because I was trying to make ripples.... oAo

I DON'T HAVE A FREAKING SCANNER D8
This was done on mouse. Which is why I need a tablet. Took me 2 hours. D:

@hayz *facedesk* -_- You honestly need a scanner. A tablet is hard to control till you get used to it.
.u. Why don't you download gimp?

hayz • 21 February 2012 at 9:03 AM

@belilalas_25 I have GIMP 2.0 because Arby's dad kinda forced me to. .______. And besides, Serif is better.

@hayz
1. The ripples in the water are too bold.
2. The lines look like they were drawn like a little kid. Advice: If you use Paint, there's a curved-line tool that you could use.
3. Green sky 😋
4. The eye needs to be colored in.
5. The tree is done in an entirely different style.
6. Why does the dino have fangs? It's an herbivore; only carnivores have fangs. Besides, the type of dino you drew doesn't have teeth. It swallows stones, and the stones crush the food in its stomach.
