    Yo Tryp, thanks for the insight. I feel the same about the tentacles too. I think it's cause they're all inconsistent and the ends are round.

    I did another one today. This time around I brought the tentacles to a point and used a black dot to outline the tops of the tentacles and used that GO2 dot effect for the suction cups on just the bottom of the tentacles. I think it helped.

    I wanted to try a little more fading with the goldies. I didn't have any Molotow White so I didn't even both with eyes. I didn't mess with any of the dots in the tentacles for like extra flare or detail either. Just tryna' get the basic design stuck in my brain.

    It'll be a couple days before I can get a pic cause I did it at a friends

    I'm gonna' blackbook it a little and try and show the underside of a tentacle or two. With more of a hollow round hole to show the depth and keep the little bubble effect for the side outlines.

    I made like 6 sets of eyes before I finally settled on those. Lol.

    Thanks for the encouraging words.

    Oh yeah - That blonde chick is sick. It reminds me of that old Dick Tracy comic book style. Like how they did all those little dots but it looked like a solid fill from a foot away. Something about those colors. It's not dotted but it just hit me like a freight train the second I layed eyes on it.

    I have to be working on a sketch and notice similar features in shape and size to real life objects or characters. That way, you know that it 'fits. So just take a look at what you're working with and make adjustments according to how close the shape/size fits in relation to the piece.

    Blacktodafuture....You've got skill with getting those emotions...I'm just not a huge fan of that style, but thats a problem on my part not yours.

    Already posted this in toy canvas, but I thought I'd get more crits on the character here..

    I personally look at the fundamental shapes that make up the character, squares circles etc and then kinda build the character up, then again I like weird looking chars

    other than that i kinda randomly scribble and doodle on paper until I maybe recognise a face or something and build it up, It is like layering drawing
