Not bad. You need to work on proportions. Less defined muscles would make for more realism. Try more shading. And as always, backgrounds always make things look better.

Thanks for the comments. Actually, the figure drawings I have up are not actually meant to be realistic at all, but stylized. Backgrounds can help sometimes, and when I feel that its important to the piece, then I add it. The figures I have up now are more design work and sketches than what would be called a traditional finished piece.

Stylized is cool. I've been perusing your site, and I agree. I think your strength is in composition, rather than accuracy or dexterity... Combinations of colour and shapes are your lot, me thinks. Not everybody can pull this, or this, or this off. That's art, man.

Annyone can do doodles... v.g. here's a mere doodle I drew while bored during a History class...


No, Spiderman is NOT that heavy in the upper body... it's the underarm webbing!

Nice. I love doodling, its a great way to explore diferent methods and styles, and generally kick around artistic ideas in your head.
