Advancing over 'Nid Bodies


crossmagus

Recommended Posts

OK, so like so many other people, I have to pause, dig my toe into the ground, and admit that my son is a Xenos-loving Tau player. But for a 12-year old, he can draw. :devil: His mom is the 'Nid player, by the way - it was her mini that he used as a model. I offered to model the bolter holes in it with a heated safety pin, but she didn't go for it. :)

I will pass along all feedback, so feel free to comment.

Not bad at all, tell him he's done a good job. My g/f was impressed too, and she's usually quite critical of drawings. =)

 

If I could offer any criticisms, I would say that the armpit on the raised arm is a bit funny.

 

Anyways, your son is definitely on the right road.

it looks good I wish i had a scanner to post some of my artwork it would be cool id be like heres my picture BUT IM ONLY 13 ahhahahah no bad comments lol its got a good pose on it too and overall good proportions for an uporportional role model eg. the marine

Lovely drawing for a kid his age. Maybe encourage him into going into an art related field?

 

Some points that I find impressive (from a technical standpoint anyways):

 

Understanding of basic perspective. The bolter and the use of fore/mid/back ground is just fantastic.

 

Proportions. His attention to the anatomy of and proper porportions of the subject matter is surprising; something I find most artists (Even the best of us) sometimes have trouble grasping.

 

Detail. The attention given to the little things (like the eagle on his knee pad, the fact that the gaunt has 3 "holes" in the side of his head, and the piping on the underside of the armpit) just make this image pop and give it so much character.

 

Well done. Well done indeed.
