[OC] [C+C] My Monsters

[Xorceles]

please indicate me what lacks from my sprites and what i need to do to improve my skills (please those who have jaggies are not finished)

Mostly? complete works.

What you got here is a bunch of disjointed doodles, there's no full scenes or even full bodies on display here, so it's kind of hard to criticize much of anything.

[Xorceles]

  sadly i'm not very good making bodies  what can i only do are torsos and not so very good
so you can point me to the right direction? that was one of the reasons i joined here to lear from where i mostly lack body drawing all i do is character straight as a tall 
Example 1:Crappy tall-like body


Example 2:Missings Bodies

that why you noticed the incomplete works.
almost of my works are things like ghosts or something that doesn't have hands or legs.

[MysteryMeat]

so do it more!

start with bits and pieces, you've got heads good enough for now so start working on shoulders and then torsos and then wastes and then legs.

practice each individual body part until you got them down you think, then move to the next!

[Xorceles]

i started to make some torsos i made this

what you think?

[MysteryMeat]

avoid the mirror tool and work from reference material. looking at a picture of a real person can make all the difference in suddenly noticing all the flaws going on.

start by looking for mad scientist costumes, seems like they would be a good fit for the design you have so far

[Xorceles]

this is my first try of a lab coat
i searched scientist lab coat and this is the crappy result:lol:
(is not a pixel art project is just as sketch)
it really sucks but i'm very happy cuz i tried

[MysteryMeat]

definitely a huge improvement, aye?

Keep at it, it might take a bit but the more you study the more little bits will start to click for you.

Skeletons, muscle groups, figure drawing. Look at as much of those three as you can right now.

[Xorceles]

thanks the most hardest thing is learning about anatomy can you point me to something that helped you
