JR19759KeymasterThanks guys.
Anyway, I have this character that I need help with. I’m fairly happy with how he’s turned out overall but something just seems off. I haven’t shaded him yet or anything, because I wanted to get opinions on him before I finished up. So what do you guys think I could do to make him better. (I am considering changing the colours, but I don’t really want to have to pose the arms).

LegatusParticipantYou could try some color on the lower parts. Shoes and pants. Maybe use some gradients to fade them into that darkness of the upper part.

CantDrawParticipantI might show more tie and vest, as in take it up to the neck.

LightningswordParticipantMaybe adding a little dark gray or brown to the coat would help.

DiCicatrizParticipantI agree with CantDraw about taking the visible clothing (necktie, vest) all the way up. His legs look a little short to me. Maybe extend his lower body down just a bit further.
As far as coloring: Any shading that you do I would keep minimal and on the edges. Like maybe just the top hat, shoulders, the very tips/outside edges of the cape. The flat black is really working for this guy.
Great design!January 13, 2014 at 11:49 am #36085
JR19759KeymasterHow does this look guys?

It certainly looks better to me.
EDIT: Updated to add shadow under the chin.

Delirious ALParticipantHe looks like he wants to take my candy! :O

LegatusParticipantHe looks great. Really creepy!

Herr DParticipantmmm. I think maybe the next thing is to make a translucent rabbit/dove leaping from his hands to scratch out the viewer’s eyes. Maybe it’s a pterodactyl and banks to our right first with translucent force lines showing it’s path. That would also ‘explain’ why we can’t really see the arms. Nice one.
