Comixink's Sketches

Hehe, because no matter how lame the Origins movie is I'm soooo going to love it!

Looks good.

I would suggest not making the claws so long and to raise the lower half of that back leg up more for a higher sense of motion.

Good as far as the anatomy though... I would just up anty on your level of dynamics vs. realism though.

[comixink]

Cool, thanks bro. I've already took note of those two for the inking process, any other suggestions or comments?

[chargedgraphite]

Emotion in the facial expression, traditionally teeth and a big roar are the norm for an action pose for him.

Also, kick his forward/right leg out a little more to the left side of the page, it will add a little more force and sense of a harder step, like he is actually running/leaping. It will push the effect of the follow-thru of your strike with the left hand already being in the air.

very very cool!!

Nice work.

As for suggestions- Watch the right (forward) foot. It looks a little sketchy.

Keep in mind how his claws work in relation to his forearms. They come straight out. They don't actually curve at all. I know a lot of artists do this for style and effect, and if that's the case, all good and well. Just thought I'd bring it up.

Also, keep in mind Wolverine's height. The guys 5 foot 5 inches tall, and built like a brick shit house. He looks a little skinny in this piece.

For effect, I'd lean him forward more. Scary part about wolverine (claws aside) is that he comes at you like a damn freight train, his full body into his motions. He habitually leans in when on a charge.

Fingers on the right hand seem a little odd. I'd suggest just closing it up into a fist.

I also agree with the facial features comment.


AAAAND, finally, if you want to use the boots from the Astonishing X-Men look, keep with the whole get up. It looks like you took pieces from it and his classic blue and yellow get up.

Man... I always feel like a jerk after these.

"brick shit house"
Heh. I love it

Other than nodding along with wiser and better minds than I, I like it

Nice stuff here. I really like how this is looking so far. I agree with charge about giving him more expression to the face, a roar or somethin, to add up to the action. Still I feel the movement of the piece. Done in your own style. Don't think you should change anything else. Don't forget to post the finished version once you're done.

One thing, maybe it'd be best for you to create one thread for your sketchbook instead of making one for each piece you post, cause y'know, if everyone did that it'd be harder to find ourselves in here. Also that way we can get to your stuff more easily, instead of hoping threads around.

Good Drawing!

[comixink]

I've edited accordingly. Went with some of the things that most people said they'd like to see. I like the skinnier Wolvie a little more than the bulkier one, like in the movies. Dunno... Just me I guess. Also, this is now my one and only sketch thread.

[sato]

Yeah I like him skinnier as you have it. I still enjoyed the other vesion best, as I said, wouldn't change a thing, but that's my opinion.
Hey these are all tips, what matters is that You're happy with the final outcome!
Will be lookin forward for more of you~

[chargedgraphite]

Looking better, however, his forward foot looks broken at the ankle. The claws look way better and the face is spot on...keep at it.

[comixink]

Etrigan!

This is actually very good. I love the Mike Manley influences there, with the sharper angles.

Only thing I suggest is to watch the length of the torso and abs. You have a solid figure here if he only has four abs. Remember that the abs still have to be laid in. Take note of how the rib case you have almost sits right on top of the hips. That's not enough room for proper humanoid anatomy.

Keep that in mind, you have to sketch in the major anatomy groups, you know this already, as you've shown it in your other work. Just keep at it and remember to fully flesh out your work.

Otherwise, it is a great piece. You are showing signs of improvement.
