Critique: HugobDesigner`s fullscale image/icon

Portal themed (which is rare in this thread), nice background perspecive and shading! Character could use work, perspective wise and shading and texture wise. over all pleasant to look at.

Rating:
7 WiFi`s out of 10 dial-ups.

Reasoning:
I feel that you have more potential. I would like to see you draw something that you like, that brings out your strong points in art. Keep at it, your skill at the moment is novice-intermediate, Draw in a style you`re most comfortable with. Dont force yourself to a style unless you truly like, enjoy and can overcome the struggles.

Thanks, drone! I really could have worked more on the character... It just looks like this because I usually make the character and the scenery in different times. When I combine them the character looks out of place.
A comment about your comment: I really like drawing Portal-themed characters/scenery. That's why all the posts I've done here are about my main character on Portal-themed scenery or human GLaDOS/Wheatley with Chell. The reason why they look like this sometimes is that I usually draw them while waiting for something (or in class when I find studying boring). But thanks for the critique, I'll work better on the characters :)

ass smells the same whether its smart or stupid. I prefer 16-bit pieces. It looks like a guy, and you say it is one. I wanna see you make more stuff than just a guy. looks pretty good, no background though. just a guy. 7/10 needs more background and stuff if you want to call this art. otherwise its just a concept of a guy.

It smells like 2 asses in here. I'm not one of them. Although photos are an art form, that stock image is clearly not your work, 1.5 News out of 10 Interwebs. I give you a one and one half because you took time and effort to come up with a stupid post, and find the stupid stock image from some website, and didn't care about the water mark. I know it took a little effort, I appreciate all efforts.

I could swear you'd used SketchUp... Well, it'd be very possible to be done there, and it'd allow you to make the animation. I think I'll try it here...

EDIT: SketchUp, Adobe ImageReady and a few hours:

So here's a few random doodles I drew on my handy dandy notebook 3DS. Because I lack an SD card reader of any sort it was a pain to find out how to get these off the 3DS itself. But here they are:

These are all very good!, I like the style. quality looks a little down low on the image but that's not your fault. I'd say if you can make this more detailed you get a 10/10 otherwise it looks like a color-in book you did. :P the Mario one looks good too.

Thank you, Hans!
I worked WAAAY more on that drawing than on any other drawing I made, 'cause I made that to impress a girl... (Girls always do that to us, dammit!)
She hasn't seen yet, which is disappointing, but she's WAAAY better than me drawing... (Girls always do that to us too, dammit!)

Shadows are the nemesis of my drawings.
Otherwise a cartoon style looks good enough for me.

Edit: I tryed making my first GIF, when this happened:

Is there something better I could use to make a tadpole move?

GIMP is the only good free .GIF maker out there. You can look up a tutorial how, it's fairly simple.
You also might have to make the color #EAEAEA if you use it on these forums.

Yes, I'm planning to continue the comic soon.
And maybe the "apple" is actually a big ass cherry...?

Ah, I see now  still looks like a heart 
Most beautiful thing I've seen for a while. Since I seem like I've been sealing others' art (see my avatar) I think I'm going to put that as my desktop if it's fine with you. It is so beautiful.

Also, Pretty nice Hugo!

I think I like pyro's style for for drawing ponies more than jorichi's
Idk why
I think it has something to do with the line that connects the nose(snout? muzzle?) to the hair...
It just seems... off...

but both art wonderful pieces of are
as is (pretty much) every picture is this thread

Thank you! I always do that when representing my character. When it's a Chell drawing, for example (see 21 posts above), I do the background myself, but when it's my own char I do the realistic background. It became my registered trademark :)


EDIT: New kind of art!

It was horrible.

And no, I did not attempt this.
