Sorry, but you posted this in th'wrong forum.

There's another section of this forum for non-Rover art, where this belongs.

And, it's apparent to me these characters are nude.
Please, keep it to a PG-13 rating, kids come here. When there's nudity, please post a warning in th'title for the topic.

And, if you read th'policy on 150m.com for free accounts, they said no nudity. Artistic or otherwise.
They clearly stated that if they find it, they will delelte your account.

Sorry, I don't make th'rules. I'm just warning you before-hand.

To Timber: Its a Great start though the arms may be a little too long. The hand usually reaches the hips. Look at yourself in the mirror and try the pose yourself.

To Wolfs:
Well being a sketch and not showing much detail, this wouldn't really be considered as a 'nude' drawing (assuming thats his right hand).

As for this being in the wrong forum... Im not quite sure about that.. maybe its a sketch of a Rover character? Timber didnt specify. Lets just wait and see..

Don't get me wrong, I do appreciate your concern over this matter.

To Amtek:
Well, I just didn't want him t'get in trouble.

And, since they're faceless, I gathered they were just random characters which are usually non-Rover.

And, to Timber:
Generally good overall, it won't take a whole heck of a lot for you to improve considerably.
But, there's two books I'd advise you to get.
Both are by Christopher Hart. His book "How to draw Animation" and "How to draw Dogs, Puppies, and Wolves"
Th'first book I mentioned covers all th'basics, and I mean all.
Character desighn, anatomy, expressions, you name it and it's probably in there.
And it's very easy to follow, it's well-illustrated with detailed instructions on how to do what they show.

And, well, th'second books title pretty much explains it all.
It also covers chaarcter desighn, anatomy (only Dog anatomy, of course ^^) in great detail. Also very easy to follow. (Although I don't like how he portrays wolves, wolves are realy beautiful animals, how he draws them is hideous >_<)

Sorry I couldn't be of much help here, All I knew t'do is give ya th'way I learned.

Welp, first off, the muzzles. They just don't look right. I don't know what it is I want to say...perhaps that they feel too forced? In other words, they don't flow. Remember, they do have bottom lips...and on the female (looks like it's going to be Colleen, or at least a collie-type dog of some sort?) there really isn't room for one.

Overall, I would have to say you need improvement on the flow of your drawing. Your sketch just seems so ridged.

next time sketch it on drawing paper, or plain computer paper. Lined notebook drawings leave much to be desired in way of critiquing. Don't be afraid to darken those lines and work on your anatomy. The necks are rather thin and wouldn't be able to support their heads. also the arms are too long. fully extended your fingertips should reach about midthigh if you are standing up straight with your hands at your sides. In your drawing the hands would be almost level at the knee. My best advice is to study the world around you and observe how things fit together. Also...the female seems to be standing on one footing, the male on the other and yet their the same size. If you're trying to place the male back farther in the picture, he will also become shorter. Perspective n all If they are standing side by side then they both need to be standing on the same level. Right now your male looksl ike he's levitating. Hope this helps.

First off, Thanks a lot guys for your input. I have been out of the loop for a week, and haven't checked my posts.
Wolfs: Easy, buddy. They are not nude. I haven't even started on the details yet. I just submitted this post to see what the fandom thought of my start so I could fix this sketch before I inked it and colored it. It is far from finished.
By the way, Wolfs. I think I will check into those books you mentioned. Thanks.
To the rest of you guys, thanks a lot for your input. I am hoping to draw weapons in their hands (That is his right hand, not something else), and hopefully add a lot more detail. I'll post the finished product later. Thanks

Thanks, John.

I worked on it a little bit more, and here it is... http://timberwolf-rover.150m.com/JakeAJennifer%20(colored)_2.JPG

P.S. I know that Jake's neck looks a bit frail, and I know that his arms are a bit long. Jennifer looks good, though (if I do say so myself).

That's because 150m.com stopped letting direct links to files. That's why you guys don't see anything.

Yes, I figured that part out when their website said they don't allow off-site links.

You mean, besides the fact that the link was posted more than seven months ago?

Guys, there's a little thing called necromancy. Stop reviving threads from the dead, orright?
