Artists of OffTopic, I have a request.

I've seen some artists on here who give some pretty good advice and I was wondering if you could look over my drawings in the video and give any suggestions to improve. Some of them are over a year old some are newer. It's mainly horses but towards the end there's some Destiny stuff. I also noticed that #2 pencil is shiny on the first one. Thank you! Edit: made then them Edit #2: I also draw birds but I send them to my grandmother (the one who's still alive)

  • I like them. I think the only criticism I have for the horses are the proportions seem a little off sometimes. It’s been many a year since I’ve attempted to draw a horse and lemme say, I never achieved anything close to what you’ve got so good work and keep it up. I think the background could use a little more attention. With colored pencils especially, people tend to get bored since the back always takes a while. If you’ve got the patience for it, I think some closer attention to detail and a great deal more shading could come a long way If you ever find yourself struggling to get stuff like depth or general background detail, there is no shame in tracing out some landscape from a photo until you get comfortable enough to create your own. I used to do it all the time with watercolors. Good effort man. You can really see the improvement in your drawings. Please never stop and I’d love to see some future artwork! Also I’m seeing a lot of people saying the colors are too blocky, but that could contribute to your art style so long as you add more depth and various contrasting colors. Even shadows don’t NEED to be blended out unless you feel like it.
