Thanks for the Redline! Its just now that I finally realized a quite some stuff was out of place.

You don't have to, but if you really want to write a whole critique you can take your time.

do you run "Soda's Frag Server?"

>>3402

I don't run that server. Sorry.

Though I might want to start my own once I find some way to get the money...

>>6244



why

>>6244

I've heard of people taking a piss calling it "Draining the Lizard"... yeeeeah.

Words cannot describe how disappoint

Danke! The credit for the idea goes completely to Rhian. But it was fucking fun to draw and try to flesh out.

I found LittleMeesh at ACen 2012 today, and I paid her for a commission while I was there.

You guys know what an atomic explosion looks like, right?

Well, that's was was going on in my brain when she made this for me.

LittleMeesh, all of my love, it goes to you.

FYI, I asked if I could post it up here, and she said yes.

I've been really in a slump after the con, a mix of work and lack of inspiration. I just decided to doodle this up to keep myself drawing.

Yeah, you pretty much hit the nail on the head with the Papa Engie thing. And I'm not surprised to hear I'm going to have to re-draw it; it wouldn't be the first time I've had to do that. I was suspecting I'd have to anyway... at least as far as putting them on separate pages to work out the kinks without getting confused as to what lines belong to whom. (I'd be lightboxing it for such purposes... )

Also redoing it would mean I could position it better so that I actually had enough room to draw Engie's feets, derp

Good to know I was on the right track. Admittedly one of the reasons I doing larger works on paper was because it was just a pain to always be erasing limbs and adjusting poses. I dunno how I could manage to do this on paper anymore, haha.

Anyhow, for storytelling purposes, it's best to have the viewer be able to tell what's going on within seconds of seeing the image. I was trained in the school of thought of keeping things simple and the action easy to read. A good way to test this is to examine the characters' silhouettes/outline and see if you can tell what's going on without the details.

So the top pose was the one I did over the original image. There's a clearer silhouette for both characters that isn't quite as all over the place and limbs aren't conflicting much with the line of action. I'd definitely look up some stuff on the the "line of action" as it would really help with bringing a smoother flow in your posing. My first suggestion is simple, though admittedly it's a little static, so the facial expressions would be key in showing the mood.

The second pose I did when I noticed that it looked like Engineer was playfully poking Scout in the stomach and then it kinda made sense that she may have been retracting from his touch. It's also a little more action-oriented than the first and gives a more light-hearted feeling about it.

I'd recommend picking either or as it can be difficult to mix both these moods without it action being read as something else entirely. Hope this helps some.

Uh. Testing this really quick to see whether it's autosaged or not.

If no, there will be another sketch up soon that I'd like crit on.

DICKS EVERYWHERE

Oh. I probably should have posted this a while ago. Haha. I forgot to.

>>6200 This could very well be the most majestic thing I've ever seen. Somebody aught to have it tattooed across their chest.

>>6195

Thank you! I I'll check it out. It's looks to be fairly cheap. (only 10 bucks) so I guess I can afford to order it.

>>6193

ENGIE I'VE COME TO CAP YOUR POINT!

Not right now dagnabit ah'm working!

FINE.

THEN I SHALL SIT HERE CONSUMED WITH LUST FOR THE REST OF THE EVENING.

Thanks to this artwork, I looked up Afterwords and read the whole thing, before work.

And I'm still just freaking blown away. Fowlie, I love your artwork. Cat Bounty, you are credit to writers everywhere. hats off to both of you.

I don't love any Scouts.

Go away. :(
