Alright. I am experimenting with gradients and what not. after I had the lines and base colors layed out I realized i made the shoulders too broad.

Tell me what you think of it. Also tell me how you like the coloring style. Yay or nay.

I forgot to post the sketch here for critique x_x. But please go ahead and critique everything. More to come soon.

Amazing job Phoenix!

Thanks. I want to be able to get Sasuke or Temari colored today.

Sakura's 1 of my favorite characters as well PhoenixRoy, and by the way, it's goos to see you back here again. Now that it's Summer, a lot of you guys came back, so it's kind of nice. Well anyways, I'm glad you're trying to develop your fan art skills more. So far, everything looks pretty good. You definitely have some growing room still though, so I expect to see you get better @ this. Well, I don't know if anyone's told you this yet, but your fan art of Sakura kind of reminds me of Bleach. I guess it's the way you drew her chin that does it for me. If you haven't noticed, or you don't read Bleach, check out all their characters faces. Almost all of them have point shape chins. Well anyways, I hope we'll be seeing you again soon.

Yeah. I really need to be more active on all the forums I've registered at. And post in more than just the Naruto Art section. Things that people have pointed out are the the neck is too long and her shoulders are to broad. I do like how Tite Kubo draws his characters. I need to do some doodles in different styles to see what I really like and what the people viewing like.

Thanks for the comment, Jaime F.

Awesome colouring, The (line)art does look a bit strange, but it's a VERY hard thing.

I get what you mean, doing lineart and sketching can be very hard.

Though I like your color palette very bright and cool (since I use a similar style, I understand it well XD). The anatomy issues are basically the uplited broad shoulders and the neck like you said.

I took the liberty of using the liquefy tool on it ...ctrl+shift+X. Sorry if it offends you, but I think it might help to see how it can be edited.

Spoiler

I think mabe her head needs to be moved a bit, but that can't be done with liquefy

 

[PhoenixRoy]

It doesn't offend me at all, you're just helping :P. I had no idea you could do that with the liquefy tool. Sometime soon I want to go back in and fix the pallete, anatomy problems and adjust the pallete.

Thanks for the help, Nat.

awesome job

 

[nat]

in most cases you don't have to redo stuff, you just push them around. If Liquefy didn't exist, I would have killed myself

all you need is the big size picture to have good resolution. small pics get all blurry and stuff when you move stuff.

but if you want to edit it, I'd love to see the improved pic ^^
