I haven't watched the how you did it video but I might.

I think it's definitely a drawing, not a doodle.

I think it's technically excellent but that's not why I think it's not a doodle.

There's a few things I could point out that might have been better but that feels cruel. The first I noticed though was that the white line on her nose looks like it should curve a little into the forehead.

It's a well drawn fit woman who looks like she wants to usurp Lara Croft as the number one woman of video games.

I'll print it out and pin on my wall to give it it's due.

/* EDIT */

I'll post a picture (a doodle or a drawing, I'll have to decide) when I've drawn one.

/* EDIT 3 */

I didn't decide but managed to draw something anyway. To all those devoted fans of mine who believe every I say, now you know I can do the impossible.

Oh, I like the crazy-happy expression on his face... wonder why he's walking away from the fun world into the facts world though... or is the world of fact actually the one where nothing is true?

Also, thanks for the feedback. It's definitely not a doodle (so I made it a doodle/drawing thread). I agree about the nose and I should have paid more attention to the mouth and chin region too to capture her likeness (which I failed to capture).

I made a new rule for myself, which is to never post in a doodle thread without having something new to show. I would have responded earlier but could not because of that rule. :)

So I doodled a bunch of potato-heads.

From scratch, constructed quite randomly. Not happy with the result. Hopefully making doodle threads all over the web will pressure me into doing regular studies again.

Everything about it is good (especially the hair), except the mouth and his left jaw.

Where are these threads please ? :-* (just out of curiosity)

Don't the arrows tell you which worlds which ? (I thought he was in the right world).

Oh, I must have overlooked the arrows and assumed each sign was placed inside the world it refers to.

There is currently only this thread and one on the GameDevelopersRefuge... and I sometimes post my doodles in the anatomy or off-topic-creativity thread on Pixelation too.

This rule I made for myself to never post without a doodle has already lead to more doodles. \:)/

I can't imagine a real live human holding those poses for any length of time.

They all watch too much MSNBC... they get ideas.

@Gull: I wish. :) They're referenced from photos: http://artists.pixelovely.com/practice-tools/figure-drawing/

And yes, most of those artificial poses, you'll never see in real life but then again, most people in real life don't stay in any specific pose for too long either, except maybe when sitting or sleeping.
