I figured we should have a thread for all other art, instead of just fan art. This can be for drawings, paintings, photography, etc. If mods feel they should get rid of this, or merge it, feel free.
Here's an illustration I did for a local comic shop called Top 5 Comics. Unfortunately their e-mail is down, so I haven't been able to send it to them.

There is already an art thread. It probably got pushed to the next page.

The only thing I found is a Fan Art thread. This isn't for fan art.

Here are some characters I'm drawing for a friend's comic. They are his ideas,I just draw them so credit goes to him. And Before you even look at Aces, he is SUPPOSED to look like the bastard son of Rorschach and The Question, that is completely intentional.


Heroes
Aces

Phoenix

The Guardian

Phase Shift

Villains
Cross

Sypher

please comment about them because I am trying to get some feedback for the art.

Why do you always have to post after me and show me how bad my drawring skills are compared to real artists?

Aces reminds me of a charachter I made up called "asterisk."
As you can imagine, he looked a little too much like rorschach except he wore an open trenchcoat and the blot on his mask was an asterisk.

Hi Dr. Brooklyn. I'll comment. First I'd like to say that your shading is really good! It's obvious you enjoy detail and that's great.

I do have one or two constructive things to say though. Firstly, be careful about your body proportions, such as limb length to torso and face size to hand size (a good rule of thumb on that one is the face should be as large as a wide open hand, fingers outstretched. It's a trick I learned in art class.)

Nextly, I'd invest in some bristol board or a sketch book. Lined paper is good for concepts and notes, but with the depth of shading and character detail you are trying to acheive, a different paper should be considered.

Nice character development! Keep at it. :)

Wait, that wasn't just some joke kids told you in elementary school so you'd put your hand on your face and then they'd smack you?

Not that that ever happened to me or anything, just speaking from observations...

No no, LOL, this came from the art teacher, I promise, LOL.

that's really good, but is it just me or is his forehead too small?

No, it looks that way. His face is supposed to be looking up, but the perspective didn't come out as well as I'd hoped, so it looks like his forhead is a little small :?
