i made a few mistakes but it turned out... ok.... right after i colored the keyblade i hated it. also i know that is the wrong keyblade, i knew his recent one was beyond my capabilities so i picked his old one. oh and this made me realize i havent drawn many male charaters. also he accidentally turned out pudgy and short for some reason.

this is my second redraw of my old fan art. its sue dressed as selphie. im thinking of drawing paulo next. what kingdom hearts character should he be drawn as? also critisism is appreciated. it helps me grow as an artist

Check the Lucy one to see who I think should be who, but honestly it is up to you.

As for critique... Umm, I don't really have much to say except try new things? I think I'll just use one of Taeshi's responses for this. The first link you have to go to the HOME or LESSONS AND TIPS and the second link gave me troubles, but the others seem interesting. I'd check the first one because it has lessons and tips... I don't know I'm trying to be helpful.

Gnukko: How did you learn to draw?
Taeshi: Gnukko is sending me this question because I got a "can you give me drawing advice?" e-mail and I rather make a detailed question here to be able to link to in future.

ANYWAY i learned to draw just mimicking various cartoon styles and drawing the same stuff over and over again. I was a really impatient and speedy artist, so I would draw straight from pen. Unfortunately that's why I struggle to be detailed A flaw I'm trying to fix and struggling a lot in. SO I'M NOT THE BEST AT ADVICE and that's why i avoid doing tutorials and stuff. What I can offer can easily be offered a lot better by other people through googling and research.

ANYWAY

HERE IS SOME ADVICE FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE VERY LITTLE DRAWING EXPERIENCE ON HOW TO IMPROVE AT DRAWING:

Here are some resources on how to draw the body and little exercises on life drawing. One of the links is really good because it simulates how a classroom works when it comes to life drawing. You have just got to draw a lot, ideally from life. Draw your room, draw your face in a mirror, draw people on the train or bus, you can mimic various cartoon styles but that will only teach you how to draw certain poses and it will prove to be very static when it comes to your improvement. That's why a lot of Sonic artists struggle to draw humans, for example. They spent all their time drawing a really limiting style that when you branch out, you just don't know what to do. You have to just practice and practice and mess up and keep going, you can google "art tutorials" for other ways on improving.

http://art-tutorials.tumblr.com Here's a good one. http://fyeaharttips.tumblr.com And another.

It's only through this that you could start developing a style, the worst thing you can do is mimic a style first and not learn the basic structure of the human body second. I should know, I learned the hard way.

SO BASICALLY DRAW FROM LIFE AND KEEP DRAWING AND DRAWING AND DRAWING AND CRYING AND DRAWING

SMILED BECAUSE I GET THIS QUESTION SO MANY TIMES AND IT'S SO GENERIC AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY AND IT MAKES ME KIND OF MAD AAAAAAA

Hmm, this is embarrassing. You'll have to copy and paste the links... sorry.

I know everyone says this, but definitely just keep practicing. I have a folder on my computer full of images from comics that I liked because there was a cool pose, or interesting lighting, or one of a million other reasons that it looked distinct to me. By doing this you start to become aware of what makes artist's styles so unique. By practicing from a large variety of art you'll begin to develop your own style. And in practicing you also just begin to develop an eye for scale. You're off to a great start here, but for example, it feels kind of funny in the face for some reason. Maybe the eyes are too close together, or maybe they're too low on the face (meaning the ears would have to move up too). I'm not totally sure that's it, but like I said, as you draw more you learn to pick up on what looks right and what doesn't while you're drawing.
Also, I would suggest inking your drawings. When I started out, I found that a thick, defined line with a pen, rather than a pencil, made a world of difference in my work. I just used a typical ball point pen, I didn't even buy anything fancy for a long time. It's hard at first, and you risk messing up in pen what you did right in pencil, but it's a good skill to try and sharpen.
(Also I really like the Kingdom Hearts idea! I love crossovers like this.)

hello! my name is fattymccatcat. two years ago i drew some teribble fan art. the only fan art ive ever drawn. my skills have slightly improved so i decided to try redrawing them again! they arent MUCH better, but they are better none the less. so im restarting my old project. drawing most of the BCB characters in the clothing of kingdom hearts characters! so post who you think which character should dress up like who! also, id like anyone to point out whats wrong so my skills can improve ^_^

Paulo as Riku and Mike as Sora since they seem like the most likely to fight each other and then become friends. David as that dude from Treasure Island that challenges you to a fight... with a stick(if I remember right). Sandy as Namine or Xion(if you can). Uhh, I can't think of anyone else at the moment. This is a really cool idea by the way.

I posted something I think would be helpful under the Sue one... I tried.

should i do paulo as riku or axel? when i pick one the other goes to abbey.

How about a sora Lucy and riku mike?

I forgot about Axel. How did I forget about Axel?! Yes, you are right, Paulo as Axel and Abbey as Riku. Personality wise it fits. Abbey has to deal with his inner darkness and Paulo's a fun loving dude that does what he wants to do.

"Bad kitty" just reminds me of the grandma from Madagascar!

The signature is actually a cover up after Mike got fixed.

She has no legs. But still a lovely picture.

I couldn't figure how to do them cause when I drew them they didn't look right v.v

Could have added some sort of object in front of her like the top of a table, or a bed for the heck of it.

whooaaa i love the style in this

It's so tiny but I love it! The face tells you everything and you drew it perfectly!

Love the expression, the eyes, the style and I can't decide what I like best about it so I'll say: I love the whole thing .

lovely texture

This is fantastic!

What an absolutely gorgeous drawing (｡✿‿✿｡)
