Concept sketch of the true form of my character who goes by the name Mr. Morning
Morning typically in my comics, is a sentient being that churns in a disgusting form as a mockery of his once former glory. Sometimes as a decaying rot and sometimes as (the main character sees) a massive being of chaotic gore and nonsensical obscurities. In truth, Morning is a rather beautiful being but one to beware of.
Upon his forehead is the origin of the Third Eye and its brilliant white hue. His other eyes are often closed with a somber grace in his relaxed features.

okay so basiclly
im here to um, critique this art of urs cuz u know
is my job now oof
(plz dont hate me)
alright first thing first, i
dont see the problem here, i mean the porpotion looks good (better then mine) and i have been drawn for abt 3 years-
im not sure, what is wrong with ur art but there is one mistake tho
is not really important but still (is the only thing i can critic-)
ur art need more communication, more atmospher, more story detail.
is like, u try to tell the viewer what going on from the mood into the event around the chr, not just tell the viewer how the chr apperence.
it just to flat, as u know that art is something that consiser beautifull in anyway or form by people
and in my opinion
drawing/ilustration of a chr is a way of creator to tell the viewer from how the chr apprenece into event the chr into in visual way.
like example
a man with a smile mask and bloody blade, with a pile of body behind him
as u can read, u can visual it on ur imagination and can tell his a murder or smth (depend on the story that the creator want)
to recap wth i just say
ur art need
1. background
2. more detail on chr
3. atmospher
i think that it for now
thx for reading, and have a good day sir ^^
I will be releasing art focusing on his background.
At the moment I’m at a road block but I do appreciate your critique, often times I only have time for doodles and collective stuff but eventually I do release finalized works.
However with Proportions
He isn’t very proportional to a human being at all. His neck and limbs were stretched further to compensate a more alien appearance. I wouldn’t recommend drawing actual human beings this way.
As normally a persons hand comes around to a bit above the mid thigh rather than knee.
Neck was for emphasis on Egyptian beauty standards for “Gods” having long necks (and large heads but that looks kinda odd haha) and to compensate for the amount of wings that focus on that area.
People are rarely born this way unless man has forced their necks into rings like in certain African cultures (also due to their Gods and beauty standards).
With character background it is hinted but only to those who are away of certain religious symbolism, though like you said yes it is very empty and just focused on the character.
Each hand expresses this character, the raised palm with the forefinger pushed does mirrors the reflected lower palm, a large reference to the “As Above, So Below” symbolism.
Open palm below the raised is an offering as many feel comforted by those with open hands rather than sealed shut. The sword in hand is open for interpretation as this character expresses somber and mercy but is quite the opposite to his true intensions. Such as the fall of the Son of Dawn.
Thank you again and Id never be mad at critiques. It’s what I am majoring in after all. I will definitely rethink sketches
So I'm part of the critique community but I actually feel like I'm in no place to be giving critique because your work is to a much higher standered.
I'm also going to critique this post and the previous two here. Saves me repeating myself because I'd be using alot of the same points, and spamming your notifications.
And don't hurt me in just trying to do my job :')
So, something that applies to all of your work, is that I love the overall style of it. It's very realistic yet you have (for some images) a slightly stylised look to it. From the sketches/unfinished work you've shown us, I'd say you like to use softer colour pallets for your characters, which provides a really nice tone for your work. (but if that's wrong just say, I am just making an assumption)
Your one finished peice on your first post is impressive, and I like it due to the design of your character as well as how you have ballanced black and red so well. It's nice to see a peice using that colour scheme and not having my eyes harassed by the conflicting colours.
The only bad thing I can think of isn't even related to the work. It's just that I know how long it's going to take to see the genuinely finished peices. The only other subjectively bad think I can think of it that the design for Mr. Morning may actually be a little too complex and my lead some people to find it hard to see what the character is. But as I said, that's subjective. Personally I like the design quite a bit. However, I will say that the overall description of him is really interesting and is nice to try and imagine.
Anyway, um, I tried. Personally I love the work, keep it coming please, your stupid good at art. :relaxed: Sorry for the really long comment :')
Oh thanks! Not use to people actually giving full attention to detail like you have. I appreciate the criticism a lot as its my ion to solve anything I lack at to make room for improvement. I do struggle with completing things a lot
This is due to both Time and my mind feeling its not what I wanted to express of the character. My mind is always gearing sometimes too fast for me to focus souly on one thing. Its where I lack.
Morning has always been a difficult character for me to express because in my head he’s seen far greater than what I could ever produce on paper.
If that doesn’t sound odd.

You're welcome.
And it's not weird at all. I have one or two characters myself whom my artistic ability has trouble portraying. Mainly because the character is complex it I'm simply not good enough to portray it in the way I feel it should. So, I get what your saying enterily.

Its a very common thing for all artists haha unfortunately but thats why our viewers are important
