This week for class I was supposed to "reach out" to community websites related to my artistic fields and get some feedback from other forum users. I'll sum up the feedback I received below:
First up, I posted a message over on ConceptArt.org (http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=271831), showing off the clothed figure drawing of my friend Jane and a concept sketch of a sci-fi character.
For the figure drawing, the feedback was largely complimentary. Issued point out were a slight angle here or there or maybe the shape of her foot. Outside of these, it was mentioned that maybe an increased level of value would improve the drawing.
There was much more critique geared towards the concept sketch. The issues with the proportions were mentioned, as were a perspective issue in the legs. Strangely enough, they didn't mention the right arm, which is the part that bothers me the most. I think what learned from these critiques is that there's not always just one answer to "what's wrong with this?". The little things add up.
Secondly, I posted my Camaro model over on CG Society(http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?f=43&t=1126859).
The replies didn't come in very quickly, but I did get a little feedback on it. They mainly pointed out some minor but helpful points on the model. Critique like this is very helpful, because they tend to get overlooked when you've been staring at the model for hours and hours on end.
I think that's about it for this week, while I didn't get as many messages as I'd hoped, I did manage to get some feedback. I'll have to try this again with future projects sometime.
