@mag hi mag, yes also like the hand drawn papery kind, maybe i will add some textures. thanks for the suggestion 🙂

@Yogita-Chawdhary, yes, I like to be nekohues.😬 My site is mainly for shop, and it's in a different style than the work I do for portfolio. So i dont want to overwhelm people by looking at my work TvT ..

It looks amazing. May be one of them is the mother and as there are dishes in the background so maybe she’s wearing an apron and has a bit long hair on her. Adding props to the zombies can make them unique i guess

@Nyrryl-Cadiz Hi and thank you for your advice! I totally agree that my hands are not the best one, so they could be definitely improved! All the best for you too!

@Mike-Babich Thank you!

what I see is: the guy in white shirt on the sofa was beaten up by the guy who is holding the wrist of a woman. Probably the white shirt man was drunk and say something inappropriate to the woman. Her boyfriend punched the drunk man as a response. Everyone is shoked by what just happened.

In terms of feedback, there is something weird happening in the face of the man holding the wrist of a woman. It seems that the face of another woman is blending with his face, while this woman should be in the background.

Edit: wait, I understood, the man and the woman are "cuddling" a girl, probably their daughter. This is why the girl is in front of the man face but behing the woman's breast. Hence, the drunk man probably said something inappropriate to their daughter.

Since you're so new at this, maybe do some studies? I say this because you gotta get used to the programs you're using. Also because you're at a stage where literally any action will lead to improvement.
Doing studies can be a great way to explore different styles as well. Find some art you like and copy it.

@angelinakizz not sure if this bumps things up a bit, I’d love some feedback

You might want to try out Affinity Designer (which is similar to Adobe Illustrator). https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/
With Designer, you can create vector shapes, and apply raster textures or brushes.

"Switch between full featured vector and raster workspaces ... Add raster brush texture to your illustrations, ... mask and add grain to your crisp vectors"

I can't remember for sure (since I have both), but you might need to get Affinity Photo as well as Affinity Designer in order to use the raster features in Designer.

I was very excited when I saw that you can work with vector & raster in the same program. I'm just a beginner with this, but you can check out their website for examples.
At the website above, scroll down to "Vector or raster, you decide" & you can toggle the raster effects on & off to see the difference on a vector illustration.
Here's a short demo video that shows how you can paint raster images, or apply a raster texture to a vector shape in Designer: https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/tutorials/designer/desktop/video/338830412/

Affinity can export as (save as) all the major file types, including .psd — I haven't personally tried sending a .psd file to someone who uses Photoshop, so I can't vouch for it, but I really like the Affinity programs.

I like the render quality in the background and the lava in the paws, but i think that most of the problems are with the fundamentals of the drawing. The anatomical structure of the lion is kinda off and i think that you are shooting yourself in the foot while trying a complicated perspective for a piece that is really demanding on textures and lighting. Its obvious the amount of love you put in a project, but i think that your focus should be on the foundations rather than the finishing touches.

Hello everybody, it's been a while!
A couple months ago I posted a few pieces about a mini series I was doing of Lions that made up the 4 elements.
I've just about finished the final one which is fire but I just would like some feedback. I really like it, but something feels off to me and I feel like it's because there isn't enough contrast between the background sky and the foreground rock or if it's between the rock and the lion. Perhaps is that there is too much detail in the background and it needs simplifying? Maybe it's all of the above...
Another set of eyes would help.
Thanks in advance
Chris

@ruth Thank you 🙂

she look so cute!! and just a little thing, but the ears in the first pose are a bit to high, also the left pocket on her backside is a bit to much to the right side. also I really love how you rendered her her at the last post! looks so fluffy and beautiful!
