The Simp Machine
Yes, This is a parody on the album cover by Kraftwerk
I'm pretty satisfied with the results and overall it came out better than I expected.
And yes, They're supposed to be stand like that

Re: The Simp Machine
Damn, you, Horror! I'm writing a story that parodies the same title! Now where's my uniqueness gone?
(btw, it's not OFF fanfiction, so lower your expectations...)
Well, the idea rules. Some of the characters look a little "off" to me, though, but I really appreciate the idea. I like it very much, overall. Sorry for not being more constructive...

Re: The Simp Machine
Okay, I don't know if I've said this to you before, but here it is now:
1) Work on anatomy. I would recommend visiting a bookstore and buying a couple of books to use as references. Try sketching, and keep on sketching until you're frustrated and angry, then continue sketching.
2) Work on 3D form. Draw spheres and cones and cubes, and meld them together to make different things.
3) Work on shading. Frankly, I wouldn't recommend using ANY color until you've gotten a good knowledge of shading.
DO NOT use a blending stump for shading until you've gotten a good idea for cross-hatching.

Re: The Simp Machine
@Don Cobra: What a coincidence! Glad that you liked the idea.
@Jon: You've said the similar thing before and I don't mind your suggestions. It's my own style and damn, it's fan-art. What about your own stuff, eh?

As much as I hate Jon, unfortunately, he can be right sometimes. Don't take his suggestions as offence, he's trying to help you with your style, even if you think it's perfect.
About your picture: my requirements are not so high as Jon's, so I think your pic is good! Homer look a bit dull here (or maybe just childish), but other Simpson family members' expressions are nice. Good work here.

Re: The Simp Machine
Haha, okay, man. It's fanart and "style," so you don't have to try to improve. I could be meaner here, but I suppose enough people hate me already.
And if anyone on this board has any suggestions on my art, please, for the love of jeff, tell me them. I hardly get any, and I know for damn sure it's not because my artwork is perfect. So anyway, about my own stuff, I'm working on all the things I suggested you to work on.

I'm with everyone else at this forum. If I were you, I'd stop drawing altogether as soon as possible.

Our choicest plans have fallen through, our airiest castles tumbled over, because of lines we neatly drew and later neatly stumbled over.

Re: The Simp Machine
I heartily agree with the man who told Shyster to shut it.
So, my critique: first of all, Michael, you have improved immensely. That's why the criticism is getting harsher as well.
So... nice colouring and composition, all over. The faces are quite on-model, and I like the expressions. You need to work on, as Jon said, proportions, particularly body proportions. Homer's stomach, for example. Think about the hair as well. Bart's is pretty good, but Marge's curls need to be rounder, and the girls' spikes need some work.
Probably your best picture so far.

I agree. Your work is total crap and my eye almost fell out from the pain of looking at this picture. Maybe you'll get better with some hard work....ALOT of hard work!Shyster wrote: I'm with everyone else at this forum. If I were you, I'd stop drawing altogether as soon as possible.

Re: The Simp Machine
since I've now somehow logged on again without fixing the cookie problem I''ve had recently I can now speak out to those idiots who criticised horrorheads decent art work,
GO TO HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
keep it up horrorhead your sketchs rock XD I love the colouring/leaning style so those two idiots can get lost and find something good to do with their lives.
