There's something with the perspective, but I'm having a hard time pinning down exactly what it is. The further rock outcropping just seems slightly off somehow. Or maybe it's the nearer. ._.

So, I'm drawing a practice sketch, but then this happens:

<Japa_arting> GAAAHHHHHH!!!!! I FAIL AT DRAWING FACES!
<Kaeriel> :| <-- do that as a placeholder?

Spoiler: big, also nsfw for nude. (click to show/hide)

Hah! I like your approach! There's some issues with proportions, though. Like, right now her head is about as tall as the distance between her knee and ankle. Also consider the distance between the tip of your sternum and your navel, and your navel and your crotch. She's got huge stretches of torso there. Move the hips up and the knees WAY up. The breasts have problems too, especially the left one (her right). It's just kind of disappearing into her armpit. And although the basic silhouette on the other one seems okay, the shading's kind of all over the place.

Oh, and the hands are real shoddy, but I expect you're aware of that. Fuckin' hands. How do they work?

Fuckin hands.

This is how they work.

thanks, and I see what you mean.
I was copying from a reference photo, but I need way more practice.

Is there a similar reference for eyes?

I have trouble with expressions.

Everything I make either looks too sad or too happy.

I think that'd be more of a problem with expressions in general than just eyes.

Practice a bit with these, I heard they help quite a bit.

Here's a sheet of some character expressions a guy did. I think it's quite well done.

Exaggeration helps quite a bit apparently, as the net result is a more neutral emotion that what you usually intend.

Couldn't find anything decent for just eyes, sorry.

EDIT: Bad wording, bleh.

[Outcast Orange]

Thank you, that will be a fun exercise to attempt.

[lordnincompoop]

Lookie, I drew some wolfcopters.

I don't remember what post this was inspired by any more, though.

It's 2 am, and I was bored. So I tried to draw this:

resize it into something reasonable.

Today I took a drawing of my own, and then messed with effects that I didn't fully understand in the same way a skulky teenage girl messes with effects on her facebok photo, untill I was willing to call it art. The end result is likely to make you vomit.

It's a flying island with an alarmingly phallic tower above a dead whale in a desert.

So yes, I'd say it's art.

[Max White]

It was meant to be a light house, but I'm happy you got the dead whale in the desert. I sort of liked the idea of an ocean that dried up, but this light house on a floating island still shines for anybody trying to cross this now baren land.

Oh look, now I'm trying to explain my own art! Does this make me a frustraited artist?

[Ironhand]

I posted this in my graphics set thread.

It is a joke work-in-progress, showing people how I go about making a sprite.
