Yea. What the title says. :/ I haven't drawn anything else interesting lately, figured I'd submit these things.

Will be scrapped.

Yea, that one was the hardest out of all of them. I still think the arm is wrong, though. ):

Thankya!

Motion is one of the hardest things to convay in a picture. You haven't gone for the 'blured background' here which makes it even more challenging.

The motion lines on the staffs are wonderful, they show the speed the staffs are moving at and well done on the cloth study. Remembering to make necklaces flow, capes to flap and cloth the press against the skin while moving quickly is one of the toughest studies to do.

There are just three points I can think of with this. First is maybe add some motion lines to the characters themselves. I know the staffs are moving faster than they are but maybe the odd one, say on the cart wheel study? Mainly just to help the illustion of speed.

Next is hair. Like cloth it tends to flap all over the place unless the character uses alot of hair gel. (See most anime hairstyles for examples.) I don't know if your characters do use gel but maybe making the hair a little messier. For example, in the first pannel, where Syouri is defending herself, because she has longer hair at the font and back you could have her fringe curving round her face and the back flapping out slightly. It would help show the movement of the head. And on the cart wheel if you had a few strands still catching up with the rest of the style.

The third point is just Syouri's pose in the first shot. She looks a little over streched but considering the motion you were going for I don't think it matters that much.

Overall this is a wonderful study of movement and perpective. I can't fault you on your attention to detail and how you've put everything in perpective relative to everything else.

Thank you. :faint: I've been needing someone to tell me these things. lol
It was really a challenge, since I rarely ever draw people in motion, they're usually on a static pose, like they know they're having their picture taken. I was sure there were plenty of mistakes, I just couldn't point them out myself. :/ But then, that's the whole reason for practice, right? :lol:
Definitely if I make more, which I'm sure I will, I'll put a little more motion into the characters themselves. :) I may even revise these until I've got them right!
Thank you again! You're always so much help! :worship:
