Leave the purple pets alone! The orange spots happen to be one of the best contrasts in neopets :D

Since we're both learning as we go, maybe I shouldn't be writing this, but...
on the last board I posted like this, someone revealed to me the magic of the "bezier" tool, inverted "S" next to the line draw.

That is if you were using MS paint to do these.
If not, I have NO idea. Sorry!

Also, the bandage on your lupe, is defying the laws of physics right now, unless its tied to his fur, or embedded in his skull. (eww)

That's all I can say! Good luck, and we'll keep learning together, YAYness!

Edit: I really like your Zafara pic (the random pink one)

All of the major programs have a bezier too, and the symbol will be similar so no worries there.

I'd suggest sticking to thinner line art like you have with the Darigan Gelert. It looks much nicer when compared to your other art.

Also on your first pic, the Ruki pay attention to perspective. Currently the hind feet are larger than the front feet which makes them appear closer to us when it seems like they should be the same distance away as the front.

Thank you very much but I do not under stand whats so good about the bezier tool I can never use it very well ^^;.

Well thank you both.
For some reason I live thick lineart it might be because of the way I grew up or something because no one I know likes thick lineart xD.
I will try to draw with thinner lines but for some reason thicker lines are easier.

Is the wolf one a later piece than the others? Because the anatomy on the wolf thing is vasty superior to the anatomy on any of the others. Except for the obvious issue of the bandage being positioned weirdly, its a pretty nice piece of pixel art.
The front paws are gorgeously drawn......for a paint picture.
Comparing it to the pink zafara, its in a different league.

edit: wait....are you not darkdusk? I assumed you were? Was the line art on that one done by someone else then?

I think the last one is a makeable with an added blindfold Ziggy.

Has anyone have any idea how to make the lupe still have the blindfold but have it actually allowing it to look like the tied to him?
I have no clue how to put it on him and still make it look genuine.

Okay, I have to ask. I don't know if its just your style or part of his design or what but...

Why aren't the limbs attached to the ruki's body? ._.;

Because I can't draw legs or arms they turn out all funky.
And rukis look cuter with no limbs.

Well, to make the bandana actually be connected, it would have to go around the back of his head instead of ending behind his eyes, for one thing... ^^;
