lions
I am going through my lion king phrase again!! Meaning I havn't drawn anything Simpsons for months! But I feel as though I am getting better at computer art by practising with lions since they are my speciality and have been drawing Simba's since the age of 5. I drew this one straight from the computer 'cos I couldn't get hold of a scanner at the time so the proportion is a bit wonkey. I was wondering on how to improove this pic in some way. Mostly the background because I have forgotten the use of a gradient fill button for the sky.......
EDIT: Sorry the pic is a little smaller than it should of been.

Actually, it doesn't look like it. That's a good sign, at least from my point of viewI drew this one straight from the computer
I think you could do something about those trees in the background... the brushes are a bit too noticeable.
Both right legs look weird, as if they were not properly connected to the rest of the body, and the left front(?) leg is too thick, but those must be the results of drawing with a mouse, I guess
The rock looks flat when compared to the rest of the background. The sky, save for a couple small details that I can't point out (the clouds look too rough?), looks great, just like the rest of the picture.
So, that's it for now, I guess. The pic is great. BTW, if you're going to use gradients, be careful! Too many of them, and there goes your beautiful work!

Re:lions
thnx. I actually used a tablet and when trying to fill those small gaps up it made the outer lines a little wobbilyer than it should of been. I am coming round that prob now and is still practising. If you didn't know it is supposed to be a young scar cub on pride rock. Maybe that's why it looks a little flat 'cos I am rubbish at layers and not good at vanishing points and perspective and stuff like that. Thanks for the points XD really helps alot

Re:lions
First Pic: Yeah, the perspective issue. Beautiful background though.
Second Pic: Nala looks GREAT! Kiara looks good too, but a bit too muscular.
Hows the GIMP working out,btw?

And what's the deal with traffic theory?

Re:lions
thnx!
and about gimp, I am getting the hang of it and I seem to improove with each pic but the one of Nala and Kiara abouve was just done on photoshop since I had it open at the time anyway. Thnx all for critics and comments XD
The only prob with gimp I am having is still trying to make the lines less wobbily so I've been experimenting with gimp.
