**EDIT: okay people EVERYONE and i mean EVERYONE has been asking me "hey when are you going to finish spidey and spawn..." well okay here it is. generally i will not go back over a piece that i called done because i look back at these as learning experience and to see just how far i have came..... well this one was kinda different because when i originally posted it i was only posting to get a select few ppl input on the progress that i have gotten to sooo without further ado (what kinda word is "ado" anyways) here is the completed spidey and spawn piece i really hope those of you that requested over and over for me to complete it are happy. and listen don't be afraid of what you got to say, meaning you don't have to compose your comments in "notes" verses on the comments page its self i will not get butt hurt as they say.......
there are a few people i am going to be asking directly for their critiques because i think their skill is better than my own (at least right now hehe) but also because i am a huge fan of each and everyone of them. now that don\'t mean that you can\'t throw in your .02 cents too i would really like to hear from everyone. for those that don\'t know me already if you want to give a critique i say this... be honest be straight forward and don\'t worry about my feelings for i truely believe that one will only get better through hard work practice and honesty from one\'s peers.... pencils by: inks by colors by cs4 wacom bamboo fun other pieces i have colored by *TimTownsend ---> Spiderman [link] ---> Gambit [link] ---> uncanny xmen [link] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- check out my gallery:[link] my latest news:[link] Comments
This is awsome!!, im not sure, just my opinion, but if give spidermans arms some more curves i think it would look better cuz with the arms all bulky it makes his arms look stubby for some reason. Like spawns right arm has the curves just right. just my opinion
-- ------------------------------------------------------>> Always open for commisions Once you start to draw you NEVER go back (-_-) this is good work. the thing i see is that ur using true colors, true red,true blue etc. mess with ur color pallette a lil. pick colors that look like red or blue but not the actual true colors. and sometimes its important to atleast pick a bg color at the biggining of the coloring so u have someware to get the ambient light and bounce light from to add to the figures. and u can do alot more hi lights, especially cus spawn is doing that green energy. u could have alot of fun doing green hilights and bounce light allover the place on this piece...

I definitely agree with what =Bakanekonei said. That moon tells me that you could do some cool things with that background. So, other than that missed opportunity, I think the colors look cool.

With that being said, your coloring is okay. Spidey looks pretty flat to me though. I'd use a ton of reflections off of Spawn's glowing greeness. From the position of his hands and the fact this is at night, most of the front of Spawn would be lit. Chest, thighs, some of his cape too. Spidey's left side and the back of his right leg would be affected by it as well. All of these areas would help pop them off of the dark background without their colors looking "colorful saturated shiny".
On a final note, try using some color-holding. It would help in some areas, like the webbing and Spawn's hands and Kirby dots.
I'd finish this up if I were you, yer almost there! Great start, keep us posted!
so, first thing i noticed, and really, this is probably the only thing i'm going to talk about because it is a major faux paux!
you didn't color the background yet at all, okay i get that part but you really should have at least flatted it. you colored spidey and spawn with very true colors, meaning very colorful saturated shiny colors, probably what they would look like with white light shining on them. now white light is hardly ever apparent in real life, sunlight isn't even white light. thats a whole 'nuther thing though, doesn't relate to what i'm getting t here really.
so.
you colored these guys on their own, blasting away with (btw a really neat color for the ground) a ground color that related to spawn's green blast.
so besides from that white light thing, you look around and got one last thing to color, the sky. then you notice a moon, and it's obviously supposed to be night! and really, none of the colors you have laid down presently reflect a night scene whatsoever. you've -kinda- screwed yourself there.
my advice in the future, if you're not going to color the backgrounds first (which i'd recommend for you since you're still trying to learn how to color moods), at least flat them so you can keep in mind what type of setting you're going for.
