Which of my Muscle pictures you like best?
8 years ago
Currently in that part of th cycle when i don't haev much motivation to draw (kinda liek a recharge period) and its got me thinking.
I have been looking through my gallery to see where i did drew the best muscles (shapes, lines, weight shading, etc) and wondered which one of those pictures you guys think i did the best job. So pick one or a few and post them in a comment.
if you can write why i'd appreciate that too. this will help me find a direction to go in once i resume arting
Don't forget to look through my scraps though i'd be surprised if there was something in there you guys like better than my main gallery

Personally, I prefer a soooomewhat realistic, "balanced" look. Particularly the neck/shoulders often get so overdone, or the torso and biceps in particular that it just looks like the poor person is badly restricted in freedom of movement by it.
Adding to that, same goes for when muscles stick out like a sore thumb... that's not particularly attractive for me.
I also mostly like it when it's somewhat smooth-looking; not overly detailed and such, I find that very unappealing no matter how well it may be drawn.
Sooo yea, for me, it's mostly a matter of "not overdone" and "not overdetailed".
Hope that kinda helps you!
Massive and bulky but still believable!
For something a bit more toned down I would say this is a pretty good piece ( http://www.furaffinity.net/view/21279598/ ). The proportions look really good and I like how the muscles are in very natural positions, such as the chest sloping upward towards the raised arm. The pose you used in the picture is a good one too, again it feels very natural for the situation while at the same time it does a good job of showing off the muscular body.

^These are among my favorites, though I honestly could tag more (you know me). I love the way you create that "bigger than all" perspective with front-facing shots. The muscles always look so deliciously balanced that my eyes get what they came for.

DNA really got me into that overly-bulky ballooning kind of muscle growth effect, especially the neck region, and you're I think about the only person who does the same sort of thing, so I really like that there's variety out there for this stuff. And giant hyper's always good :B

I like them a lot because you did a nice balance of strength and curves with them. Their muscles show off a lot of power while still complimenting the feminine curves. It reminds me a lot of Ryuakira's work to be honest.
I didn't list the remorian upgrade you gave Tsubaki in there because there's an obvious bias related to that one.

You're really good with the massive overbuff builds.

What I really love about your stuff is your general muscle shaping, being it much more round and soft approach, as well as your pieces using inflation by air pump. I think I can tell you put a more passion and time into them because you really enjoy the subject, and that feeling fuels you to make more. I feel the same way and can respect that.

I also like when you mix up with angles and foreshortening, because it shows off the size a lot more. You're also improved with your expressions and story-telling over time.

I hope you find that motivation for more art. Hopefully you'll find more inspiration and favorites in my gallery too. Thank you for watching <3
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/17443372/ The brutely nature of your existence in this image (I think I suggested this image when you were wondering what to draw for him) shines greatly, giving that classical "beast of the beasts takes what he wants" -image the needed boost one could ever want to have - and yet, there's a certain level of playfulness that's going on in the image itself that doesn't give it a full blown cruelty look: instead, it looks as if that's what it is - a roleplay.
http://www.furaffinity.net/view/18484591/ This might be the biggest, thickest and most detailed musculature you've done and perfectly represents the level of smugness one could possibly ever have with such sizes, with so many bulky details here and there one could possibly admire them. Even the cropped version gives it it's own ideas when the face isn't more than a peeking thing outside the canvas, allowing that "looming" effect to come out well.
