Can you help me out telling me what's wrong with this drawing?

The pirate's left thigh (on our right) is too long,
compared with the other thigh the knee should end where it starts.
Other than that, I see nothing anatomically incorrect with him.
The box seems to have a very strange perspective,
which makes it look oddly lumpy.
But, the rest looks spot-on,
and its an extremely awesome illustration~!

I agree with Queen.Trickster about the thigh on the right being a bit too long. I believe the bottom of the box should have another look at. It seems rather off. Maybe tilt the horizontal line at the bottom?
Other than those two things, I can't see anything else wrong. I really like your illustration >w< . Especially the little scar and earring details. Good job with the wrinkles too. 3nodding

its awesome, but perhaps his left foot is too far back on the chest, bring it forward, because to me he looks like he's going to overbalance and faceplant >.<

Thank you! I knew about the treasure chest but with the leg...well I did try to fix it (at first) but when I made it longer it seemed extremely weird, so I decided to leave it like that.

Maybe the leg looks that way because the point of view given makes the illusion that you're seeing it "face to face" but it's more like a side view and also, I think the clothing itself and the boots help making it seem off, because if you measure the length of the leg from the knee to the upper part, both legs have the same length and the same with othe part of the legs.

Anyways! I suck at explaining things like that xD

Oh! and can you rate this one too?

In the first picture, the right wrist seems to be broken and dislocated.

In the second picture, the left elbow is too pointy. It's as if you just connected the dots using only one curve from paint.

Aside from those and those of the other posts,I really can't see what's wrong with them, they're really nice by the way^_^

in both picture some shading would help the 3D effect, they look kind of flat to me

I AGREE! some people may not immediately notice that the pirates' wrist seems to be broken or they may be looking elsewhere on the ninja chick *laughs but in all actuality the little details are bugging me on those too do you think you could fix at least the pirates' broken wrist? wink

User Imageive noticed on both, the hands are too small...
on the pirate, the fingers start WAY to far out on the hand...its like your palm was made of taffy and streched it.

On the ninja, her hand is tiny and the elbow looks like she could stab someone...the eyes also could use some work...

lol dude I feel bad for you with some of these critics! The leg looks damn fine its just the pov....and the fact there is no shading! BUT!!! THAT is because they are works in progress.........SO read lol razz lol and wow your ninja chick is sexy! kunai might have too long of handle... OH maybe its the boot! I think you might want to show more of the side on the right boot smile what do you think?

*********one thing i see off is the angle of the gun! it be pointed down more so you might not even see the hole of the barrel i think

well i disagree If you look at the hand it works because where the band is is where his wrist starts! as for the ninja hand....I'm no so sure It looks right to me because if you look at its position it looks like it is like 6-8 inches away from the center of her chest....and your hand is the size of your face so nur!
