I'm looking for critique on these arm bones studies I did.
I am very thankful for all feedback.
Thank you!
Hi!
I am looking for a critique on my illustration portfolio.
My focus right now is mainly editoral illustration.
Most of the artworks were drawn under a time limit (from 8 hours to a few days) to practice working with a tight deadline.
I made sure when putting the portfolio together that it would cover as many subjects as possible (food, nature, portraits, technology, etc.)
I am constantly studying and creating new portfolio pieces so I would love to know what to improve.

I will appreciate all feedback. Please be brutally honest with me, I can take it! :D
Thank you!

Hello, I have a couple things to add. I'd say that you're placement of the abs is really good, just the forms don't feel believable.
1. though they're not perfectly symmetrical, I think using the same shape for each ab tricks our brain into assuming they are. So I'd recommend changing up the tendonous intersection's start and stop points.
2. A minor thing, but usually men's abs are roughly the same width, while women's create a violin shape. More generally, I'd widen where your abs attach to, as it looks like you're leaving room between the obliques and the abs.
3. (optional) Although shading isn't the focus, if you want your forms to pop more, I'd add variation in your terminator. Take the image labelled 6.2. To me, it looks like a box-y shape for the abs, when the reference shows a more gradual change at the bottom and a sharp edge at the top (of the abs). Making the terminator thicker or thinner depending on the form shape will elevate your drawings.
Finally, I did some drawings to put my money where my mouth is. Respond if you need anything else.

I think the top abs for the male model are too narrow. They appear to we wider on the photo references. Good job though.
Hi!
Here are my assignments for the Proko anatomy course. This time learning the rectus abdominis muscle. I did each pose a few times, so I picked the latest/best version for each one.
All feedback is very appreciated.
Thank you!
I love your layout design and composition in every single one of them.
I would say your weakness is color, especially green. All your green looks very mottled with over saturated greens and unnaturally muddy greens combined. I notice for most digital artists green is a problem. Try to do life sketches of plants and trees with digital media. The yellow of the leopard is mottled too. Color harmony is not there either, except your 3rd and 4th piece.
I recommend Marco Buccio’s color course here for color theory. His content is excellent and he explains everything so well! Also do some master copies of editorial illustration with a focus on how colors are used.
Hi!
I would like to get some feedback on these illustrations I did on this article as an exercise:
https://www.worldwildlife.org/magazine/issues/winter-2022/articles/family-trees
I basically did one illustration on each section of the article + a cover.
The article is about the importance of mangroves in Boca de Camichin.
I tried really hard to make the images work together color-wise.
They're enclosed in this order:
1. Mangroves, people, and more
2. Family dynamics
3. Water ways
4. Ripple effects
5. The big picture
6. The cover
7. Legacies
I am very thankful for all criticism. Just hit me with it! :D
Hi!
Here are my studies for the Shoulder bones lesson from the Proko Anatomy course. I studied one reference more than once often. I included two versions to almost every attempt here - one version with the muscles and then another with only the bones.
All critique is very appreciated.
Thank you!
Hi!
I am looking for critique on this illustration.
It is a poster for students with straight A's at the end of the school year, inviting them to go to the ZOO for free. It's a piece for my portfolio.
The focus should be mainly on the title but I also wanted to let the viewer wander around the image and explore a bit.
Not long after finishing it I already noticed that I somehow forgot to add core shadows so I will add them when editing it.
All feedback is very appreciated! Let me know about anything that is off.
Thank you!
Will the animals at the top be behind the letters, or in front? I ask because the letters will cover up the heads of those animals if they are behind.
Also, the penguin seems to be the only animal that is not to scale. You might want to define why that is.
Other than that, I think its a nice layout :)
Thank you for your critique! At first I intended the title to be see through with an "add" effect or other similar effect like that. But it still didn't look the way I wanted it to look so I ended up covering up some of the animals.
