Dim that's amazing
and being the same fan I am
omg
I love this. That is all.
Some things I think could use improvement:
-There aren’t any shadows coming from the "venom" from the snake. I can't tell if this was on purpose, but since there is some pretty rough/sketch shading throughout the whole piece, it looks a little off.
-His nipples are really pale. The males I see shirtless
because there are so many, ohohoho in pictures, all have some dark man tits. If we look at this guy, [link] , who's smiling at us in a very creepy way, his nipples are a lot darker than his skin. Though, if you were going for a more pale dude, there's this guy too, [link] , he's not quite as happy to see us, but his nipples are a lot darker than his skin. But there are outliers in everything, I'm probably looking a little too far in this.-Something that leaves me a little uneasy is his flesh. I don't like how I don’t immediately see that he has some torn skin right there, it doesn’t bother me that much, but still worth mentioning.
-One last thing is his body structure. If we look at all the shirtless men on Google, [link] , they’re very rectangular shaped, and your guy looks a bit feminine to me; I don’t know if you were trying to do that intentionally, but he gets a bit too curvy around his waist. Women have more of that water drop belly button, while men just get little holes. But his legs and crotch look good anatomy wise.
Overall, I really like this, the watercolour is fantastic, and I really love what you did with the background. And I love the moss/mold/mushrooms all over him, he looks really nice and you did a kickass job. Just look at naked men more often and stop fapping to the ladies to get a better feel on him. C:
Firstly yes he isn't supposed to have a masculine figure, I wanted to give him a drastically long body and a liiiittle bit of a curvy waist haha. I don't know whether this was to give the idea of squirming and how men can appear to be a little.. 'less' manly when masturbating. ='D
Or just simply because I prefer the idea of long, skinny unproportionate bodies.
As for the nipples, Oh god I know man I know. XD
To be honest he actually wasn't originally going to have any, the only reason there are sliight signs of nipples are unerasable pencil lines that kinda ruined it for me. ;___;
I don't really know where I was going with the flesh, so I can understand your problem with it.
And yes! Shadows, my one true enemy. I either forget to add them or just scrap the existence of them all together.
Something I really need to work on.
All in all, again thankyou very much for the feedback. xx
Yeah, I figured you knew what was up with that, but I was still a bit confused, glad you know what men and the ladies look like. Oh the symbolism ;o;
I hate when that happens, pencils suck, bro.
It was a good touch though.
Shadows are hard when they're coming from an 'outside' source, I'd practice with simple sketches to get better c:
It was my pleasure, glad I could help c:
