Here, Supergirl seems to be too much like a body builder, with a muscular top frame and noticeably large neck/shoulder muscles.

I much prefer the Wonder Girl.

And welcome to CBR.

Same here. Your Wonder Girl is really solid. Welcome!

Shawn great pic, I'm stuck though. Her waiste on up looks good, waiste down a bit of confusion to me. It may be her left leg.....
still a great drawing. I don't mean to be a thug in my crit but look at it(pic) again.

JAM,.......

I'm inclined to agree that there's something off about the left leg.

But overall, a great piece! If it weren't for that leg, I'd like it better than the Wonder Girl one you did.

[shawn_381]

Yep, that leg is a problem - the foreshortening gave me fits, I redrew it, but you know how it goes once you're stuck sometimes. Just working out the kinks.

Thanks for the comments, no worries about thuggery....honest criticism is the best way to improve. Thank you all.

Overall: Really, really nice drawing!

The strong areas are: Compositon, organically well-drawn.

Areas of possible improvement (If you are interested): Your drapery/clothing seems a little flat and stiff as well as your lines, in general (her hand, for instance). The glasses are kind of underdrawn compared to other areas as well. Maybe a little more attention in these areas could help sharpen the image! Her eyes are one of the main focal points and also a place that you can spruce up with more defined highlights, etc.

Just some creative help from a fellow artist.

[shawn_381]

All true, Eric. Thx, bro.

[Eric Henson]

All true, Eric. Thx, bro.

No problem! I'm mainly here to help. It is an outstanding sketch either way. Hope to see more art from you in the future!

Is this referenced from a photo of Carmella Bing? Don't ask me how...I....uh....know :frown:

[shawn_381]

Don't know, it may be - it was just a pic of a chick with glasses I had in a reference pile. Who's Carmilla Bing?

Lol! Carmella Bing is way too dirty to be Wonder Woman… ;) Besides, I don't think Diana is THAT stacked, amazon or not.

[shawn_381]

Too much wine, but a decent gesture drawing...
