 Why not? Because you don't learn shading such things that way any time. I guess Jeremy did this to explain to you how to shade it and not to use it and not tell anyone in other forums about it. I know you mentioned you got some help but first of all it's not just "a little" compared to the whole C+P you used here and second he helped you on the main part, the one you look at first. So you get all the compliments for it though it's not even your own work. How rude is that? And what do you mean saying you don't like the mountains and thank Jeremy for that? I don't this is the right place for sarcasm.

 its not that i dont can shade the turtle, ut if a nice guy helped, why not? i just need help because i never shade such a thing really before. anatomy, and just an anatomy without any shadow or shading is not so hard to draw ;)

Spectacular, but I hope those trees are just tiny, because if they were supposed to be in the forground then they are too small compared to the turtle.  Unless the turtle is supposed to be giant

Good, but the turtle stands out from the rest of the picture, as Daniel said.

 No problem, sorry to comment and run last night. I agree that you should tone down the lines a bit, and AA some more on them too :)

 I like it, but the turtle kinda... stands out from the rest of the picture.

I agree with Perihelion, the turtle looks ou of place.  Just the hairlines, but everything else is fine.

Lovely green palette, but the turtle looks out of place. I suggest more AA and a stronger shadow. The texture of the land, the turtle, and the palms is also very different, what with the dithering on the ground and the smooth AA on the palms and then the total lack of AA on the turtle. More consistency will help your pieces look more unified in the future.

Just noticed that you pretty much just took what Jeremy made for you as a help and added some unneccessary highlights..


user
Perkele (Level 4 Murderer) @ 1/17/2010 14:09

So you learned in just one or two months perfect anatomy but don't know how to shade without Jeremy's help? Yeeaah, Lahra..

the dark outlines on the tortoise make him stand out too much, stronger dropshadow would also help. the undulating background makes me wonder where exactly the horizon line is.


user

 no refference for the turtle, i only done the lineart, and jeremy help me with the shading ;)


user

C+P at the palms is a fatal mistake. Try to concentrate on one single style and don't mix different ones, the palm looks lots better than the (overdithered) landscape. And, even though you gonna deny it anyway, you obviously used a reference for the turtle - next time mention it in the description.


user
bitswitcher (Level 5 Assistant Manager) @ 1/17/2010 12:03

 stones man, stones :)


user
Dignitas (Level 1 Rookie) @ 1/17/2010 12:02

Yeah but if you look through or rather over the palms you will see them bigger because they're nearer. On the right side you got some strange looking sharp objects - what are those supposed to be?

o o i love it


user
bitswitcher (Level 5 Assistant Manager) @ 1/17/2010 11:04

 well, i knew it that nobody will see that. between the turtle and the mountains is a bit water. you look trough the palms you know?


user
onek (Level 6 Hitman) @ 1/17/2010 11:00

nice... nice palette .. maybe remove the turtles outline to make it match more with the rest...  also the turtle seems to be gigantic, compared to the palm trees and the mountains.... maybe dont dither the mountains
