More sketches now (I probably complete two or three in a single school day XD)
Holy buckets! :blink: No rest for the reviewers, then, I guess.
Not much new to say about the new picture of Ruth and Uther, (except that you did a very good job concealing the feet
) though I forgot to mention earlier that Uther’s tail should probably be visible behind Ruth.
Pterano’s head in the sketch of him fishing looks very good, in my opinion (maybe his crest ought to be a bit longer, but it almost doesn’t matter). However, I would suggest changing his wings so that the leading edge is convexly curved, and perhaps slightly more flush with his arms. As it is, the wing membranes look as if they’re trailing behind him like a cape; not a great aerofoil.
You also might want to change Pterano’s legs and feet (make his toes a little more claw-like; as it is they look almost human :blink:). In the picture, his knees are apparently folded underneath his body, when his legs should probably be extended behind him. In addition, it might help to have his right leg sticking out on the opposite side of his tail from his left led (as opposed to being directly behind the tail), so it doesn’t look like the back half of his body is twisted
Need I explain the meaning of "blacken" when a squid is involved?
Oh, I can just imagine...
Pterano: “Look what I’ve brought you for dinner, Ptyra!”
*SPLAT*
Pterano: (thinking, covered in ink while Ptyra laughs herself silly)
I hate it when that happens...As something of a cephalopod fanatic, I must spare a few words for the squid.
I can’t tell what that “halo” (for lack of a better descriptor) around it is (a fin?), but it appears to be missing the long, pointed torpedo-shaped mantle characteristic of squid.
Despite the problem you mentioned with the eyes, Ada (whom I at first thought was Ptyra, begging for food.
) looks quite good.
I have noticed that I’ve never seen a tail on any of your flyers, probably because they are almost always in positions where the tail should not be visible, and, in any case,
Pteranodons have such small tails that they are not hard to miss.
I gotta say, Pterano’s beak looks REALLY weird in the kissing picture. :blink: Kissing may exist in the LBT world, but personally I prefer licking and nuzzling (rubbing beaks in the case of flyers) as gestures of affection among LBT dinosaurs.
Other than Pterano’s freaky beak,
and Ada’s left leg looking a little long, I think they both look quite good.
In the following picture, it is Ada who has the strange-looking beak. It looks almost toucan-like. Her father, however, is very well-drawn. (I’d love to help you think of a name for him, but I’m terrible at making up names for characters.
)
The Strut picture is pretty darn good for your first try. :blink: I’d say you’re a natural at drawing egg stealers.
In the last picture, Tricia’s head looks a little small in proportion to her body, her right hind leg is really oddly shaped, and she has three toes on her left front foot and right hind foot, but four (too many, I think :unsure:) on her right front foot and left hind foot. Pterano looks fantastic, however.
