Oh wow! Your proportions are getting really good hon!! Usually you have the bulk with a few lanky areas, but Vegeta looks really solid in this one!! *huggles* Besides that, I'm interested why his tail is curled in such an interested fashion Wink

^^ Thank you! It's weird I think sometimes I think to hard about how things should look and then just end up screwing it up anyway. But with this one I just kinda put the tip of the pencil down on the paper and let my hand do the thinking for about thirty minutes and then when the pencil tip came up there was Vegta lineart! heh ^^; and his tail is kinda interesting looking but I like it. Yes

    As the asians say- mind of no mind. Don't think about the technicalities. If it looks right in a photo, maybe your eye missed something. All you need to do is draw it, see how it looks and if it doesn't look right then its not. Screw getting it looking real or what. Getting it right isn't about labouring- its about knowing what it should look like and drawing it. That's why you draw from pictures every now and then to remind you how it looks. About the only thing in this pic that is a slight worry is his shoulders look tense. That's it. You did well hon :huggles:

      Grin Thank you! His shoulders...well I was hoping to make him look like he was about to hop up on the table thingy behind him but oh well. Now I'm off to finish my character development board. I have nothing colored on that ahhh!! to much work! Mad

        Maybe its the way they bulge- the muscles in above and below the elbow on the inside of the arm is the ones that do that. Usually those are emphasised, but Akira emphasises all the muscles. Donno. Something like that...
