1. Welcome to the Art + Literature sections! Some things to keep in mind:
    • It's a good idea to specify whether or not you're looking for critique from your fellow members. Please don't let friendly criticism turn into an all-out flame war.
    • Art and literature often deal with mature subjects. This is fine, but please keep in mind that we'd like to keep things PG-13. Don't let discussions get out of hand, and if they do, please alert a moderator.

    How long are the stories? And how long would the animations be?
    It sounds like it would be hard to do

    Mine isn't too long, just good enough for a short animation. My friend's is a long ongoing story that I'm planning on doing a comic for, and maybe animating a couple cool scenes.
    IT will be difficult, but worth it, methinks.

    So guys, now that I've gotten used to my drawing tablet and I'm drawing remotely decent things on it, anyone wanna duel me?

    No thanks. I've got my own art honing to do... Still need to better my skills before I can feel ready to duel...

    That looks good!
    Maybe a little more detail on the shorts but I think it's really neat!

    Give it some texture (The belly section especially). It's a lizardman, try some subtle scales in there.

    Yeah with characters who have scales it generally helps to take the time to do the scales, but not spending an insane amount of time on them because it CAN take forever.

    Do you not notice the subtle custom scale brush I used? Too low quality I think... Maybe it would work did I had access to my computer and uploaded the file itself instead of uploading to imgur then downloading to my phone and then uploading here.

    The lighting said otherwise, scales are slightly reflective so there should be individual highlights on the bright part.

    Rescaled it. Is this better?

    A bit better, have you tried staring at pictures of snakes for an extended period of time? It helps.
