First Attemts at an Oots Avi

[gegiet]

Hello, I recently decided to try my hand at making Oots Avis. All of the images that I made and Liked I put here. I want some positive critisizm on what I could Improve on.

The arms are too long, and the mouth a bit too long on one of them (i think it was named Ivellos or somethng), but other than that, it's good. Good!

I like how you've done Ivellios' robe, and the swords look good. One thing I did notice is that the arms sometimes come out of the sleeves at odd angles. Try extending the arm back towards the shoulder to check that it lines up - you can always put it on a layer behind the sleeve afterwards.

[gegiet]

thanks for the advice, I think I will do that next time.

I think you made the arms too long because you calculated normal arm length from the end of the sleeve, not the shoulder.

[gegiet]

yeah, I can see that.

[Mr_Saturn]

sleeves are not necessary, unless all your guys have robes.

Anyways, good start.

Wow! The arms are superb now! 102!

Well, in my eyes, it's pretty nice now :)

I find that if you're using a scalable graphic vector thingie, your lines are much to thin! Arms are also too long. I just started avatars, and I've had to do a bit of work getting arms and legs to look realistic.
