[QUOTE=Kagrs;30568338]@Heroms: Hum, when did I say I was scared of nudity? I was merely pointing out that perhaps she should've described it as porn rather than nudity.[/QUOTE]
You're just arguing semantics now.
The man is nude, there is no confusion as to what she meant when she posted that. The art community uses nude and naked to differentiate between artistic work and just porn. God forbid someone decides to use the terms interchangeably!
You were limiting nudity to anatomical studies. That's retarded, and that's where the "Stop being scared of nudity" came from.
[QUOTE=Jack_Thompson;30557360]There's a NSFW thread tag so you don't have to say that.[/QUOTE]
Thanks for letting me know. I'll be sure to utilize it in the future.
[quote]Now draw FemScout. [/quote]
Thanks for the idea, Gufu (I know you were a good man) I'll have to save that for the future. I've gotten bored of female nudes though so I think I'll stick with drawing dicks for a while until I've gotten bored of those too. Maybe I'll draw the entire Team Fortress 2 nude! Or maybe not, as some of them I'd rather not see or imagine naked.
[quote]I would rather say it's a detailed, imprecise sketch for something that has potential.[/quote]
I must admit I put considerably less time into this drawings than my others, but I do plan to do a better job with naked Sniper. Your first statement was a bit confusing though; I'm not sure if you disliked his pose, or disliked his overall composition. He's not outright pornographic because he's not fucking another man in the ass, he's just posing naked suggestively. I see that women are depicted like this all the damn time, so I gave a man a chance to do so as well. And...I see that automatically makes him gay, as indicative by the amount of "Optimistics" under the image.
[quote]I can't really tell if she(?) is trolling or not.
I don't like you, kfbd.[/quote]
Yes, I'm trolling. Definitely trolling. You figured me out right quick. And it's a shame you don't like me because I like you. In fact I love you. I think I'm going to draw an image of naked men and dedicate it to my love for you.
[quote]The thing is that he is in a sexual pose and it's basicly a shitty porn drawing.[/quote]
I think my drawing is fantastic. There are certainly better artists in the world but I'm quote proud of my pile of shit. Next time bring a pair of latex gloves before putting your hands in my threads.
[quote]You're kinda good at drawing, but you're just making tf2 porn basically...[/quote]
Yeah that Heavy really looks like he's enjoying Medic's hard-on.

I know, right?
And to Devil Traitor's post: that genuinely made me laugh. I almost pitied the poor guy; Medic seems to be most popular among nude artists and gay porn artists. Everyone just wonders what he has to hide under that long, up-tight coat of his!
His left shoulder(from our POV) is way out of proportion.

So why is he a neo-nazi?

Well, the Medic's wiki mentioned something about him being active during WWII era though he was supposedly not a Nazi. Personally I think he's absolutely a Nazi, if not professionally but personality-wise. Medic isn't that young, he has to be over 40. At least from what I understand.
And even if that's all wrong factually, Medic fits the sexy Nazi persona more than any other character. Seeing as to how he's German. And a sadistic blood-thirsty creep.

That's actually a good question. He only gives me a look of "meh" but I think he's envious. Little does he realize that I'm actually using his own fantastic physique as a reference and sharing it with the world. I'm such a good wife, aren't I? I wonder, if he were also an artist, would he do the same with me? lol

[QUOTE=Detlef;30571238]are you gonna take any critique given to you in this thread or did you just post the pic to get a reaction out of everyone[/QUOTE]
Oh, no, I'm certainly taking the critiques and applying them to future artwork. There's lots of good stuff mentioned like the fact Medic's body is a bit off and the lines are sketchy (like I said, terrible habit I have yet to get over). But since everyone seems to be reacting, I also have to defend my artwork. It's only natural, wouldn't you say?
Besides, was there something you were expecting me to say?
I don't like the fact that you're calling your work fantastic/very good and all that.
don't be so defensive to your work. be critical and look for your own mistakes.
The composition and choice of color is alright, although a little too crammed for my liking. (No edge of his body isn't out-of-frame)
I already gave you some advice on the coloring and linework in the creative artwork thread and I'm gonna stick with that because you are still in great need of applying better techniques - Especially with the color blending!! Once you're drawing your naked sniper try these things. I warmly recommend you either look through some of the WIPs posted in the creative artwork thread by the vets or you look at speedpaintings on youtube to figure out some useful techniques.
Finally, stick closer to your ref pictures. Correct anatomy is so very important when you're drawing stuff from this category of art. It ruins the mood to see something is wrong, you know? A little like hopping in bed with someone then realizing without prior warning that he actually has a deformed chest and shadow/light values. Makes you feel like a dick for being surprised and then afterwards you think he's a dick for not saying anything before he invited you home for coffee.

It is possible to think that one's own work is both fantastic, AND be aware of and admit to its flaws simultaneously. Likewise, my husband considers me a fantastic wife AND is aware that I'm a psycho-bitch from Hell too.
Yes, thanks Kagrs, I meant to say earlier that I appreciated your critique as it is the most useful of anyone's critiques/advice yet. The people on deviantArt are too suck-dick to say that there is anything wrong at all.

Yeah my boyfriend would probably go insane if I drew him naked and post it on the Internet.
Next time post your work in the Creative Drawings thread and I'm looking forward to seeing you improve.
Please don't draw anymore penis thumbs tho.

I guess fantastic and flawed could go together but it's kind of a dick move to call your own work fantastic when it has a bunch of flaws at the moment.
Hands are my worst. You probably noticed with my Medic + Sniper image too, Sniper's hand is kind wonky. I've always had a problem with feet + hands! I GOT TO PRACTICE!!!!!!!!!!!
your view of your own art is bad, and your comparison is not right.

Don't want to discourage you, but the whole body is your worst part. You should practice the whole anatomy and make the shading better. His ribcage and mantits are pretty bad.
Here is a bunch of helpful stuff:
[url]http://characterdesigns.com/[/url] (You should draw from reference, these nudes help)
[url]http://www.posemaniacs.com/[/url] (Do a lot of the 30 second drawing challenges, these are good for studying anatomy)
And of course: [url]http://alexhays.com/loomis/[/url]
And try not to post more until you see some improvement, people will have more patience for you then.
No one wants to watch art from a stagnating artist.
[QUOTE=Detlef;30571641]your view of your own art is bad, and your comparison is not right.[/QUOTE]
You're an artist, how do you view your artwork?
critical. If I see problems I work to fix them. most of the shit I do is for practice and I don't make threads for individual images
[QUOTE=Detlef;30571785]I don't make threads for individual images[/QUOTE]
Christ, you're still upset about that?
Everything else I agree with and regularly practice. Of course i haven't been on Facepunch long enough for people to be aware of my potential, both good and bad.

Well to be fair, you did kinda manage to piss people off instantly by doing everything wrong and then when people pointed it out you repeated it anyway. Like making threads for every image, posting your own images in the DA thread and so forth.
Just pay abstention how things are done here.
The anatomy is way bad and the coloring isn't that great either. It would help if you looked up some references of the characters/actual human beings on google.
His right shoulder goes out way too far. It seems like it's dislocated. Also, his right pectoral is too wide. And what is wrong with his hand? The fingers should start closer to the knuckle. Thumbs totally don't look like that either. Also his arms are too short.
Try not using the smudge tool for coloring. And use other colors such as purple and red and not just brown for the shading.
Fix the lines as well. If they were neat and not all sketchy and chunky like that, it would a little bit better to look at.
And yeah, the swastika needs to be tilted.

True, I did make a few forum mistakes but it seems silly to be waste energy being angry at someone for that. Couldn't we all just sit around and sing songs? Think about this way; I'm used to being a prudent environment in which people expect fair warning before they click on a link taking them to an image of a dick. If I knew nudity was allowed and accepted here, I would have put it in another established thread.
Happy now? Smoke some bongs? :D
Nyaa hit the nail right on the head. You should probably just lurk on the threads for awhile and see the do's and dont's of this forum. Making an entire thread for ONE image isn't exactly smiled upon.

We only befriend eachother by violently ripping each other apart to the bare bone, then we make and wear dresses of our skins and feast on the flesh and use the intestines for house-decoration.
Then we continue knuckle-fighting for the rest of our forum-lives jokingly serious.
This is not the forum where you make friends by being nice. This is the forum where you just end up being friends whilst constantly being up in each others throats because we appreciate honesty more than anything else here.
Those who just want to get along, sing songs and be nice to each other is pretty much eaten alive because that is a shit way of acting. Holding back just to not stomp on somebody's feelings is stupid because in the long run you cause way more harm than if you weren't holding back in the start.
