From conception to completion, how long does something like this take?

Like an hour and a half or two aprox. Maybe three?
DUUUDE, you should just keep doing animals. I don't think you could ever go wrong with them. The only other good animal artist on NG I know of is AntiDarkHeart. She's worth checking out if you want to go that route.
Thank you man, appreciate the kind words :). I've just checked out AntiDarkHeart, she's got some fantastic work, just seen her dog drawing..breathtaking
Why do you need help? Are you going to do something with her or is this just practice?
I needed help naming her but I think I've decided to name her fuschia. And I hope I get the opertunity to use her design in the future.
There's one thing that brings down the whole picture and that's how far her face comes out depth-wise. It makes her look like an android with a detachable faceplate. Other than that it's nice.
The depth of the face is actually intentional to highlight her invasive gaze. It makes us question ourselves on a similar level. Are any of us truly human?
Only joking, I made myself ill writing that ha :) thanks for the feedback! I'll do a pass over with what you mentioned and post the results, cheers!
Great work as usual.
I only wonder... how would this character look if you interpreted him as a girl? :)
i dunno, he's fine the way he is now.
The distortion in perspective adds to the surrealism. Not enough people play around with perspective, it's an underutilized tool.
Oh my...
you brilliant psycho.
HAHAHAHA
I like the art, the edgy flavor text just killed it for me. As a principle, I don't have respect for people who value their message to the point where they will compromise the purity of their art by reiterating it in a different medium. The whole idea of doing that is just repulsive to me.
Yeah I understand where you're coming from, since it seems to be over compensating for the already dark tone of the painting itself. I think it all boils down to preference, but I can respect your perspective on the matter since it's actually a valid point of discussion.
I myself just wanted to have a kind of basis for interpretation for the viewer if they ever decide to assign meanings to the symbolism in the painting, although I can also see the disadvantages of doing so as it limits the capacity of the viewer to form a variety of colorful interpretations.
I have to thank you for your input as it made me come to a realization that I wouldn't have deigned to notice otherwise. Although to be perfectly honest I don't really value the idea of art itself as I'd rather know the reason for its creation and the messages that are behind it. To me, art for art sake is simply not engaging as a work without a soul is only a dead display of skill. But that's only my opinion.
You know, pretentious art school reasons. haha
I wasn't around for whatever made this guy a rockstar, all I see is an incomplete sketch. But who cares? NOSTALGIA BONER!
Very good, not perfect, but close. I think some improvements could be made if the second-closest bird wasn't a copy-paste. What's striking is that the first bird is facing to the side which separates it from the others, so the second bird should probably be facing forward. The animation is super clean and the blur effects are just right, not to mention the colors.
If you're a fan of your own work, then you'll be fine ~ Start small. If you can't, then start smaller ~ If you don't love what you put out, don't expect anyone else to
