Yeah, we're fucked.

yep. the univers will implode and the fishpeople will walk the land to consume the flesh of the living.

Looks pretty fun. I don't think I have much more advice beyond "Don't stop now, keep sharpening those skills". As for critique, I don't know if it counts since I'm biased towards big-headed characters (At least in terms of what I've plotted/built in SL), but somehow the head and neck feel like they're just slightly too small for the body they're attached to. The head and ears feel like they take up a fair amount of space, but the head itself doesn't seem to take enough. It MIGHT just be my eyes playing tricks on me, as roo's tend to have extremely muscular legs, and I'm not used to these proportions.

The neck just seems slightly too thin in comparison with dimensions such as the arm thickness, and width of hips and shoulders. While it is possible to have a skinny neck, it tends to be in some sort of proportion with the rest of the spine, although yes, slightly smaller. In my poor experiences, while the spine/neck appears to be an incredibly muscle/space efficient part, it tends to be at least a little thicker than arms are.

Don't take what I've written as fact, though. I HAVE spent a lot of time looking at art, but I probably haven't spent as much time as you paying attention to anatomy, much less drawing it.

*correction: SPAN of the hips and shoulders, not width.

yes. that has been a bit of an issue with me. I've been working at it and been a little lazy with the necks on charicters (they tend to wear clothing with high collars, hah.) I've been looking it over and yeah...it is a little odd, and...yeah. it's probably the fact she has those big hips that throws ya off. but in truth, I see where you're coming from, and the head doesn't really look as big as it should be. but...*shrug* these sorta flaws are always present on a MKI drawing, so. probably going to fix it in the future as I tack down how to draw these things correctly in the future. my major issue with this peice would be the hands though. slender female digits are hard. so...they turned out too small. yeah...

Welllllll... for the hands, they might be alright in size. On chicks, hands tend to be a lot more petite compared to guy hands. I've actually heard of a number of other artists complain about hands and feet before... I suspect it's the difficulty of putting that many lines and details in a relatively small space.

I think one of the other differences between hands among the different genders is how female hands and fingers tend to curve and positon more gracefully than man hands, based mostly in muscle and bone structure, and how the person carries themself. While hands can always be in different positions, man hands tend to appear more knobbly/broad, and female hands tend to be more graceful/flowing.

K. I think I've covered everything I can possibly think of on head, neck and hands, unless ya come up with some detail we haven't talked about yet. Hurrah!

indeed. I've noticed that, most of the anatomy pages I've looked at, the bone structure in female hands is a lot thinner than male....something that'll improve with practice I guess =D

If this is the end of the world I'm glade to be a roo

Its a female kangaroo with blue hair and a belly inflation nozzle... what's not to love?!?!?

Don't fret so much about the hands... you'll ALWAYS hate how your hands come out when you draw them... I don't know of a single person who hasn't said at some point that they hated how their hands came out on the page.

The hands have the most bones, joints, and potential positions over any other part of humanoid anatomy... and they are the HARDEST things to actually perfect, even more difficult than faces and expressions.

So, just keep working at it!

indeed, belly nozzles and blue hair are awesome. and....very true, I don't draw females that much so thats probably why I'm so distraught over the hands. since male hands are a bit thicker, joints and such are easier to draw since they're basicly thicker, female hands though, quite the opposite! long slender fingers and pettite hands (usually) just something that'll improve with practice. thank you for the input though! =D

thats so awesome
