Your image is lost amoung the background. Study some bark for the trees? Ben R Sloan replies: "Thank you very much for this post! I'll remember it and use it in the furure.As for the bark, it is modeled off of some random bark I found on google." | |

| 27 Sep 2005 | Wendy Bittnerová | Loading...Well...this time the "Laff Masta" actually offered some good constructive crits...exactly what I was going to say. I guess he/she isn't such an idiot after all. *grins* Ben R Sloan replies: "Indeed! Thanks for looking, Wendy! You rock." | |
| 28 Sep 2005 | Jessica Warner | Loading...Interesting...I don't know if I've ever seen a bald elf before. It suits him! And I like his dog, I can just imagine it panting and fetching sticks, hee hee! Ben R Sloan replies: "Oh yes I meant to mention in the description...i wanted to break away from the stereotypical long haired elf. The long-blonde-hair generalization is rascist! RASCIST I TELL YOU!" | |

Franco | Loading...I LOVE the grass...It must have taken a loooooonnng time to sketch all that...Love the trees...You've got the whole stiff poses thing practically under control...bald elf...now, THAT'S original!!!^_^ ^_^ ^_^ Ben R Sloan replies: "Thank you, thank you. I was all stressed out about the grass because its hard as...well its hard to do. I went through a couple grass tutorials for this, but I'm still not good enough to make it realistic." | |
| 9 Oct 2005 | Emyln23 | Loading...Ello! I really loveeeeee this. I think its the trees i love so much. They look really good, i love the scratchy look to them. Great Job! I'm gonna look around you're gallery some more! Ben R Sloan replies: "I'm glad you like it! By all means, come back and take another look. My new ticket just got up, and a colored version of this picture is now here! Thanks!" | |
| 21 May 2006 | Dina Stolstein | Loading...Alrighty. Get ready xD: First off, I think this picture is a good beginning, since you've only recently began drawing. But I think you should've shaded the trees in curving patters, to show that they are round. Also, you should make the characters a bit darker, because at first glance, it seems as if there are only the trees and the hunter. The 'dog' ((dude, that's one cool dog xD)) is very light and unnoticeable =/ And lastlyyyyy: Maybe you should make the hunter focusing on his aim? A stretched out bow and no focus= disaster o.o Hope I didn't annoy you too much..=P Keep drawing! | |
