The Simpsons & Futurama Fanworks Central

this is a little sketch i did last night and today, and before i do the final version in photoshop, i would like some advice on anythin that doesnt look right or needs changing or just your general comments
thanks - jamie

ooo, very nice one.
I've only got one nitpick: Homer legs look a little pointy where his knees are. Make them a bit smoother, then I'm satisfied.

Hehe, not bad.

I really can't find any faults with it, except for the knees, but those were already mentioned.

Pretty good. The knees have been mentioned, and other than that the only fault I can really see is that the blast from Homer's lower gun in his left hand seems to be a little off, tending to look angled down. Other than that, damn good.

A final suggestion though, if Homer is moving in some direction (I guess the right from this pic...) then you may want to have his top hairs travelling in the opposite direction to indicate that movement. Again, just a suggestion.

thanks very much for your help i'll sort out the knees and i like the hair idea kif, so i'm gonna add that too, should have the finished version tomorrow

Well it kinda looks like homer is jumping backwards rather than to the side, mainly because his lower half suggests it, but other than that, it is really really good.

What everyone else said. Other than the knees (and this is a minor nitpick), I love it, particularly Homer's facial expression and his dishevelled hair. Looks like a lot of work went into this. Great drawing!

i finished it just now, and i'd like to thank people for their advice i couldn't be happier with how this turned out

*Nice.* What did you use to colour that? Flash?

For some reason I didn't have you pegged as a good artist before, skajme. Now I'm definitely looking forward to your next pic. :-)

However, there was no need to create a new thread for this. I've merged the two threads.

*very* good! I'm impressed!

Wow! That is awesome! I had no idea the final piece would look so damn good, but man... that's just... WOW!!!

Now *that* is good. A perfect example of where simple colouring can look excellent, if done with care. My favourite bit has to be the flash coming out of the muzzle - quite cartoony, but it somehow suits Homer down to the ground.

*Applauds and also looks forward to the next thing*

Whoa. That's very well done.

Dang, you made it worster to better. Good job .

hey thanks a lot everybody im glad you like it, i used photoshop to colour it by the way, and dont get your hopes up, i doubt the next pic will be as good
