    The hands look rather good. In all my drawing classes they have been the first thing we always draw, so if you got the basics for a hand you are on your way. I'd say stick to it, you've got potential.

    hey! cool, ur a dancer! my friend is, & ill b taking jazz in pe next year. (wish me luck im a clutz...yea i am) ok, back 2 the subject: art

    ok, so ur hands r good. ur hav good proportion. the first 1...ooo..ok, something's off, idk what. lets c: oh! i think its that u shouldnt c all the other fingers...like maybe u drawk it 2 sideways 4 the positioning of the thumb. i hope that makes sense. the second one. ok, the thumb is a little 2 small 4 the size of the hand. also hands rnt as smooth as u think. theyre very wrinkly & kinky, so make sure u portray that in ur art. i like the third. cartoons r fun. so yeah, 2 answer ur question, theyre good. u could use work, but u have something there. a sort of raw talent. good. also, 1 last thing: dont b afraid 2 shade very very dark in some places & very very light in others 2 create a realistic contrast! good luck i ur future art & definately show ur parents!

    The first one was really good. On the second, the fingers were a little small for the hand size, but still over-all quite good. The third was well done as well. The third could have used more shading though. Pooh's eyes looked kind of vacant. All-in-all though these are really good, especially when considering your age.

    I am also in 8th grade - going to high school, i am a self proclaimed "artist" also. About your drawings, i would say you have a knack for people, try drawing friends, people, animals anything you see thats interesting, try it! --when you go to high school, take an art class, and develop your skills during the summer, practicing. also : shading is difficult / especially texture shading, so take a look at this http://www.katrinazoe.deviantart.com/ it has some of my art that your can look at, also on this site (deviantART) there are many tutorials, you can join for free and get comments on your drawings! try it, lots o' fun.

    what does just being laid have to do with this???? You owe 13 grand at 8.7% and want to roll this into a differnet loan along with an ATV? Even if you get a really low rate, how much could you possible save? This is not a mortgage, it is a small car loan. I would just concentrate all my effort on getting these paid off. Why pay interest on a depreciating asset???

    They're all very amazing.

    Here's some constructive critisism.

    Pic #1) The thumb needs to be a little more...shifted (i think)

    Pic #2) The finger's need to be a LITTLE thicker.

    Pic #3) Is perfect!

    But overall I think you're very talented. You're DEFINATELY better than me :P

    P.S - is the high school Cardinal Carter by any chance? (just wondering)

    the 1st one is really good especially the detail on the nail and joints in the finger, the 2nd one is kinda average and there could be a little more detail, on the 3rd one the quality of the pic is blurry, but its not too bad, interesting, and looks kinda traced

    the pictures are pretty mediocre because of proportionality issues and whatnot. the first picture is like an optical illusion effect, where I can't tell whether the finger closest to me is a pinky or index finger. Regardless, you should still show your parents.

  • 1 decade ago

    Wow they're pretty good.

    Some of the had parts are a little not proportional.

    Why not show your parents?

    They are the ones that should be supporting you every step of the way.

  • It's definatly a good start. There is some definate talent in there. If you learned and studied more, you could be fantastic!
