March Contest Rough Sketch

[Elizabeth Erazo]

Hi, this is my first time posting and working with the monthly prompts. For this prompt, I wanted to design a young female faun. At this stage I’m simply wondering if the front and back view “track” well, while also wondering if there’s any major design feedback I need to hear. If something is broken, I want to fix it now before getting too far!

I don’t think her personality shines a lot in these images, so I’ll really emphasize that aspect on her other poses. She’ll also have a pack animal companion, so don’t worry too much about her lack of luggage. Thank you for your time

@Elizabeth-Erazo Hi Elizabeth!

Very cute! This looks like a good start.

She seems to be a bit unbalanced and leans to the right side of the image (mainly the front view). An easy trick to spot this is by mirroring/flipping your image while working. Getting more nit-picky, it looks like there are a few things that are just shy of lining up--such as the angle of her shoulders and the position of her hands. I would check out @carlianne 's video on drawing character turn-arounds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9W2fCcCROqQ she just started a YouTube channel and has some very helpful tips!

Keep up the good work!
