Right, in my defence I have to say, I had gotten halfway through a very detailed critique when the page shut down on me soo...
I'll be really short this time, sorry XP

- Please title the links, with numbers if nothing else. It looks cleaner that way. A small description of what we are watching (highborns, urchins, hero or villain)

- A slightly larger size would be apreciated. That way we can see details better.

- The clothes are altogether awesome. I love the design and the variety of body types. Some males have a little to feminine shapes even for my taste *coughshotaconcough* and I'll give you a plus for the different hair styles.

- Draw both eyes! I doubt that you have a story with nearly 30 cyclops.... adding that other eye (someone didn't have any eyes) gives symmetry. Besides, one can add a great deal of character to a character by small details such as a scar or suchlike. Someone might have a slightly different colour on one eye. You can show off their personalities by raising one eyebrow etc. etc.

- Same thing with the hands. They show LOTS of personality. They deserve to be there.

Yeah i have trouble getting the second eye and they were supposed to be five minutes concepts though i am working on refining all of them.

So, I liked them. Overall, I liked them. The style is good, the clothes are AMAZING and the character designs are pretty good--each character was original and didn't look like the next one. Great job!

I won't do any serious anatomy critique, since the pictures were small and I really am not the anatomy person. So, don't worry getting that from me.

But I will point out some things that bothered me:

1. Eyes. Please draw both of them. I know it's hard, I've been killing myself over positioning and shaping the eye right so it looks nearly symmetircal to the first one I drew. There's no hair to cover the lack of the eye (which is good, don't hide behind that all the time), so it looks EMPTY. Not like empty eye socket, more like... eye was never there. Yes, a 5-minute thing, but eyes are important. We judge distance based upon two eyes.

2. The characters look a little plump. I'm not saying draw the super skinny ones (I have to be one of the worst offenders), but they look a bit stocky, especially the women.

3. The women/girls. Their breasts seem to all be rather large o.O
We're not all C cups. Try mixing it up a little. I'm sure I'm not the only one tired of seeing huge boobs attached to a woman.

Other than that... GREAT JOB!!!!!! I'm still awed.

Breasts are a pain, even for me who can see them in the mirror when needed XP Thankfully there's a lot of good tutorials on them out there, and it's all much easier when you add colour (or at least shades. Shades do a lot in favour of breasts. A pop-up effect for one)
