Hello! I'm back after not playing an ounce of TF2 for years. I missed this Chan.
Here's a piece I squeezed out today. (ps how do I robots?!?!?!)

Just a quick light study thing?!?! I don't really know to be honest. I'm sorry I keep drawing Medics. I'm going to go on a Sniper binge after this.

No, don't apologize for Medics. There is never enough Medics. Medics everywhere! Your art is great and I am very excited to see this MvM comic! All I ask is that it doesn't end up unfinished. I've seen too many amazing artwork and fanfictions only for the creator to stop midway and never pick it up again.

And yeah, this place has become a ghost town, say for a few dedicated people, I don't post much since I am embarrassed for not having new material to contribute.

Thank you, I just hope the comic doesn't disappoint! I'm writing the story at the moment and I'm trying to keep it as canon and plausible as possible. The only problem for you guys is that next week I'm going to Europe so I won't be posting anything during that time. Sorry!
It's a shame about the Chan though. But as quiet as this place is I will still love it and the people who post here.

What's the rep that it seems to have?
Personally, when I first came across this place, I thought it was a really nice board.

I suppose some view this place as intimidating and tough to please. Changoers love to offer technical and in-depth critiques, and I've seen some artists/writers etc. interpret it as, say, a personal attack on their creations and whatnot. But Changoers do it because we want to see everyone improve. I personally find this site to be incredibly useful, and I think it's probably the main reason my art has made any sort of improvement. Others prefer to go back to places such as dA where praise is more readily available, I find. I don't know. I hope I'm not causing offence or anything.
Now, I'm afraid I've not much to offer in terms of new art. I'm currently working on a piece because I'm currently in talks with one of the chaps who's curating a fan-made TF2 artbook and there's a chance I may be offered half a page. It depends on various factors but I am keeping my fingers crossed. So, between that and writing for the MvM comic I'm working on colouring, I promptly slapped some colours on that old sketch here: >>8193
I'd love to hear your thoughts on it! I am terrible at colouring and I'd love to finally develop a concrete way of colouring things.

I was true to my work and also drew a Sniper. A...really small Sniper. It was mainly an excuse to practice colouring.
A penny for your valuable thoughts.

His skin is bathed in SUCH a wonderful warm light and shadow (seriously, pretty skintones) that the blue of his shirt distracts me a bit- almost as if it isn't in quite the same environment. I'd suggest pushing the shadows on it a bit deeper, and desaturating it a little, maybe even pushing it into a slightly more green-blue. Slightly. C:

The only thing that jumps out at me about this picture is that the Sniper's ear doesn't quite seem attached to his head. This isn't as much of an issue in your Medic pictures since there's enough context for me to figure out where things go. (Even TF2's style, as cartoony as it is, goes to the trouble of detailing almost everyone's ears.)

This is awesome work, I love Medic's expression!
A nice piece that really shows off the 'feel' of MvM in my opinion. :)

Keep it up!

Hi guys! I'm not dead! I've just got back from Berlin the other day and I have exactly a week before I move to Scotland to start university, so I'm a right busy bee at the moment. BUT! The very least I can offer right now is a little sneak preview of my contribution to the TF2 Artbook, which is being assembled as I speak!
>>8220
Thank you very much! I'm glad you find it has some atmosphere to it.

His head looks too big (and not "Medic"-y enough, for lack of a better description) for his body and arms too small.

I really like the emotion in this piece. I do get the feeling Medic's completely exhausted, poor guy.

For the redlining, it depends. Some people intentionally don't draw on-model, because they worry about photocopying the canon art too much (I know I do), while others strive for it.
