What do you think?

Hello all. I am new here. I love to draw in my spare time. I have no formal training and do everything freehand from a photo. Please take a moment and look at my work and give your opinions. This is a work in progress

It's looking good there, Scott. I'm sure the 'pencil' colour folks can give you tips RE blending and stuff, hopefully they'll take a peek.

Welcome to our little corner of AF!

Cheers!

Re: What do you think?

I think you need to post an image instead of a link.

Re: What do you think?

No harm, no foul. The weather here has been awful! As soon as the severe storms have passed I will get back to drawing.How is an image easier than a link? All you have to do is click on the link and its there. I wanted to show the work in progress so I thought the link was easier.

Easier for you harder for potential commenters.
It is bad manners to only post a link to your work.
Thanks for explaining that whole hyper-link thing for me BTW.
I never knew what that highlighted blue - purple color meant.

About your art. The crazyhorse and summit funnycars are a little flat and unfinished.
In general you need to spend more time adding detail to all of these.
I want to see some more shiny highlights in there. You also need to give them windshields.
Also get some ellipse templates and tighten up those wheels.

Re: What do you think?

I had no idea that posting a link was bad manners. And have no idea why all the sarcasm about the hyper link. I meant for none of my post to be offensive. Look at the original post. I ask for some opinions on my work,not about how I posted it. I however do appreciate your honesty about my work. I do not do this for a living,but would love to someday sell some of my work. What is an ellipse template? As I stated in my earlier post,I have no formal training. Not even an art class in high school. Please do not take this replay as offensive. Ireally want all of the advise that I can get. Thats why I am here. Thanks again for your comments.

Re: What do you think?

Hey, i dont see why the rowing?

Its more convenient for the people viewing the work if you post up pictures (if you know how to, its fairly simple) therefore they arent beggining to get annoyed by clicking and will have a more positive view of your work.
