Critique Time! Constructive Suggestion
-
Here’s a super rough draw over, in the current perspective grid you have laid out, the buildings would be tall without a road seen. I hope that makes sense.

It's awesome that you're challenging yourself with a complex composition. A few things stand out.
- I think what's confusing is on the initial take the body motion looks like he's falling headfirst. But with the background, it looks like he's tumbling into a position of being parallel with the ground, but the position of the lower half doesn't match the movement of the upper.
- The arm and hand positions look off. I can only recommend to have a photograph taken of someone performing the pose.
- The feet look a tad long. Could use some foreshortening.
- The area between the hood and chestplate bothers me. Seems odd to have the cloth tucked under the corner of the plate.
- The rope belt looks tied like a thin string opposed to a thick rope. Plenty of references online.
- Your point perspective gird isn’t setup properly. The boxes should be wider towards the camera, smaller at a distance. I saw two points perspective in an earlier image. Are you utilizing three point perspective?
-
@AngelinaKizz Very interesting so you are suggesting that I utilize the vanishing point to extend to the edge of the page instead of a T-intersection at the end?
-
@willicreate I am trying to utilize that two point perspective as much as I can, but I think I might have gotten a bit confused. I think this next time around I am going to put 2 color points. As for the body, I get what you mean about the position of the top and bottom of the body. I wish a possessed the skill to do that, but at this point I haven't tried it just yet. I love the way he looks at the moment. I don't mind the size of his rope, but next time I'll add another wrap around to add some body to it. I agree with the feet, but in a way, to me it adds a bit more length to the legs and does not look too, human... if that makes sence.
-
@AngelinaKizz this is what my mind was seeing also
-
@Kori-Jensen not quite. It would be better suited that your buildings be vertical instead of horizontal.
-
A draw over to go with my notes from yesterday.
-
@willicreate I think I have most of your edits rectified, what do you think?
-
@Kori-Jensen Yeah, I think the image better informs the direction the character is falling towards. Looking forward to the finish piece.
-
I hope you like the line art so far. What do you guys think of the city scape? I am going to be adding the broken glass very soon, I just wanted you're guys input
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP SO FAR!
