What do you think is the strongest area of your art? (Share your art!)

[Missapogee]

A while back I made a thread called "what do you think is the most unique thing about your art style" and it did pretty well! I think it's important for artists to have an opportunity to look positively upon their work!

Like last time, I'll try to respond to as many comments as I can with something positive about the art! I encourage others to do the same if you have the time, but it's not at all required/obligated.

I think my strongest area is my coloring. I actually like coloring so much that I don't draw lines at all, just skip straight from sketch to colors!

(all of these are from my comic, Apogee)

( I'm also a fan of my panel compositions and page layouts, but that's harder to post small screenshots of)

How I draw extra strands in the hair. I am just too good at adding trivial things.

About your art style, I agree a big deal of coloring skill and knowledge of shape is needed to pull it off because you cannot rely on outline to create contrast and define shape. I like how you combine colors in the second image.

I think my strongest area is colouring hair, eyes, and skin but I know I still have a lot of room for improvement.

Examples are cover and promo arts from my comic Forced.

I really love colouring! It's the strongest feature of my art, and also my favourite part of the process.

I'm also quite good at lineart, something which I've truly come to appreciate since starting a comic; and I've been complimented on character design a lot with my Blue Star Rebellion cast, which is nice!

[Missapogee]

@diamondpowder The hair looks wonderful! Also I love the colors you use and your sense of anatomy!

@dreamysheep.01 Hair and eyes are so fun to draw and you do a great job of it! I also love your character designs here!

@Kaydreamer Yay! Another coloring-lover! Your work looks super clean and professional!

[dreamysheep.01]

@Missapogee I love your art style, it really suits the lineless style and the way you shade looks really good, especially the neck shading - it adds so much depth! I also really like how you draw eyes!

@diamondpowder Those hair strands look so pretty, I love small details like that! Your art style is beautiful and I love the atmosphere of the colour palette and soft shading. Do you have a comic?

Just drew this cover for my latest book!

I like my line-art, and my coloring has gotten a lot stronger in the past few years. I've always been good at toon-figures, and making the drawing look like it could move if you're not watching it. I used to obsess too much over the finer details, and my work suffered as a result (or wouldn't get done due to agonizing over it), but nowadays I just chill out, lean back and go for it.

@Kaydreamer I love the way you shade and it's really cool zooming in and seeing the painty effects your brush has! The way you colour your lineart is so nice aswell!

@torncloak I really like the way your use lineweight in your style, it makes the lineart look really dynamic! Also I love the limited colour palette you've used, it works really well to establish the tone of the drawing!

[MissEljebel]

I think I'm best at expressions!

I think I'm able to show characters' emotions pretty well in my art work. I'm also proud of my character design too!

[carloswebcomic]

To be honest, I don't know what my strong point is (if I have any) other than being relatively fast and making things sort of look like how they are supposed to.

[Missapogee]

@torncloak Your style is so good! I love cartoony silhouettes like this and your line art is super expressive and dynamic!

@MissEljebel Your expressions and character designs are great! I also like the way you draw eyes

@carloswebcomic Wow! You're art is super clean and feels almost 3d! You clearly have a fantastic sense of 3d space and form, I also love the composition of this drawing.

[gabriellabalagna]

You do faces so well! And the lineless coloring style really suits your drawings.

I never really thought about what my strongest area of art is. I've gotten a couple comments about backgrounds on my comic though. I finally understand perspective decently, so I might pick that as my strongest area.

[CursedBeasts]

I think lines and dark inking are my strong suit!

[Macarenaoftime]

mmmmmmmm...maybe the atmosphere?

[Missapogee]

@gabriellabalagna Your perspective IS really good! It's really realistic and clean looking! I also love the colors and attention to detail

@CursedBeasts Your art style is super striking! Reminds me of the art from the hellboy comics, but it has it's own unique charm to it!

@Macarenaoftime OMG your composition and lighting are fantastic, as well as the color pallet! Atmosphere is definitely a great word for the way all of the impressive aspects of your style come together!

[Macarenaoftime]

Thanks! I love how you're able to pull off a lineless style! It definitely requires a lot of ability

Well, here comes an exclusive but the topic deserves it (its just the cover for tomorrow's chapter).
I think that my strong suit is that there is always room for improvement. If we compare the first chapter with this things that I am drawing now, there is a great difference -and there has been only 12 chapters drawed (5 released). I don't know how will I end up drawing at number 80, but with only that idea I already want to keep going.

[Inspector_Spinda]

your lineless art looks amazing honestly. i can distinguish all the different parts of the character really well.

my strength is having fun character design. I like giving everyone different shapes for their bodies and features.

I've been told that my backgrounds, perspective sense, and posing are some of the stronger areas in my work by artist friends of mine ' 3' I tend to agree on all fronts, although everything still has a lot of work to be done yet.

This screen cap shows off at least the first two aspects, the walking poses are nothing to write home about though
