[Riot Art Contest] Yasuo

Sceolang

I had a little crisis of inspiration while I tried to draw my previous project, so decided to draw Yasuo. And I guess it worked, can't go away from my tablet now. My references:



And my today's work progress:



I'm about to correct the pose, both of his hands are confusing for now. Any feedback is welcome c:

Good job on the details of his face Your drawing looks too dark at the moment, paint in some lighter values so it will be easier to read.

Sceolang

Thanks, Victoria. It's a little bit lighter now.
Small update (still wondering what to do with his right hand)

VictoriaHall

No probs, looking awesome! I love the colours on his skin.

As for his right hand.... hmm... his pose does feel a bit uncomfortable.

When I have trouble figuring out what I want to do with my pose I try to shoot my own photos for reference. Maybe his arm could be raised slightly with a close fist?

I think you jump too fast to the colouring stage, doing more thumbnail would have help you, it's not normal to be so far on a project and missing half the body because you don't know how to place it with this pose. It's a really strange way to work imo, but if it works for you .

Looking good Sceolang. If you haven't started on it already, I might have his right hand reaching out and touching the blade with his index and middle finger. Just a thought.
