So something for Feral!'s 09 Wish you were here. Feral's mascots, Pawnee, Weeko and Ruger taking a vanity shot to send out a 'wish you were here'.
This picture was slow going in the beginning and I didn't like it too much but now that it's finished I think I like okay. It's not a very t-shirty design though :/ I hope it will bet a bit more appropriate for a t-shirt once I ink and colour it.

It really doesn't feel like a t-shirty design to me either. The graphic shouldn't be focusing on itself for that, and given that it's fully body, the details are going to be pretty small unless they're going to emblazon the graphic over the entire front larger than last year's tee.
At any rate, it looks alright, but it needs a little more work. If you don't mind a little critiquing, Ruger's muzzle bothers me a little (the angle of it is off from the angle of his face from what I'm seeing, do a horizontal flip on the image to see it more clearly), as well as the foreshortening feeling forced on his right arm, but there's not much I can comment on how to fix that since I fucking hate foreshortening myself. Also, Pawnee isn't even looking at the camera (not to mention his eyes are not level with each other, but that's a quick and easy fix). Pawnee's left arm could also be forced out a little more for a stronger silhouette to make it clearer that he's the one holding the stick with the marshmellow on it rather than it getting lost inside the silhoutte of Weeko's arm.

I don't mean this to sound defensive... but I don't see how Pawnee's eyes are unlevel and it looks like he's looking at the camera to me. If anyone's eye focus looks off I'd say it was Weeko's. I also don't see that Ruger's face is crooked and I do do the flip the image thing and it looks fine to me still. But I did see a problem with his neck and have fixed that. I sorta see what you're sayin' 'bout Pawnee's right hand, but he's suppose to be group hugging the other two so I placed his hand on her back but not completely on it cause she's covered in quills, ow! Also... his hand is not really important...but regardless... remember there is still line work to do, which I have done his hand in thinner lines than Weeko's back so it looks a bit less muddled. And lastly, I completely agree with you that the foreshortening of Ruger's arm looks forced and that's because it is forced. I struggled and stuggled with it and finally said fuck it.
Alas... I have already shown the sketch to Roo and he has already approved it and thus I have already inked it so no further changes can be made. :/
I apologized if you are upset with this year's t-shirt.
ps- when are you gonna draw stuff?

If I find the time I'll go over the parts myself that I feel look wrong, and perhaps you can show me otherwise that they don't look incorrect, perhaps it's *my* eyes that need checking. @.@
And yeah, confused Pawnee's hand since I was looking at the image flipped when I was making the comment, my bad. >.<
