This is maybe somewhat off-topic but, I've been making a lot of comic-style vector art for a video game recently, but I really need some other artists to criticize the anatomy and lighting/shadow. I know I'm not very good at these areas and I want the art for the game to be as attractive as possible.

I thought about posting at conceptart.org but it seems like you have to be pretty pro even to post there, it was intimidating. I don't want someone to tell me to go study anatomy (I've had traumatic experiences with really mean art criticism), I just want specific suggested changes for one set of images.

We have a Comics and Manga SYW forum in Share Your Work (password = vista) but sometimes it's not exactly heaving with activity.

Have you considered posting on deviantART? Big, active artist community.

Also consider updating your sigline to include links to your art and an invitation to check it out.

You can also try WetCanvas, which is a huge, active art forum. They don't have an exclusive comic art subforum, but they have illustration, digital art, and drawing/sketching subforums with members that can give you advice on practically anything, and everyone is very nice and helpful.

I have a DeviantArt page, but there is no critique-request forum as far as I could tell.

Penciljack.com is also pretty good for posting artwork in a forum.

Hello. Just wanted to let you know this thread was very useful to me, so thanks! I also suggest ConceptArt.org and CGSociety.org. They have instant posting in Works In Progress forums. Yeah, and DeviantArt.com is fantastic for connecting with other artists.

If you have a moment, I'll hope you'll enjoy my own comics, at www.MartinKoala.com

Cheers!
