Description French army ambushing german tanks. 

Can you recognize the tanks? The right tank it's different  model from the others tanks. (I would be happy if someone can recognize them because it means that i'm going to the right way )

Yay finally I 've finished this drawing.It was postponed because I decided to focus on the summer,Halloween and christmas drawing.
I decided to back to my origins .The main reason I 've drew this I want to practice drawing landscapes and "action". This is my first time using differents type of pencil (2B to 3H).

I hope you like it ! As always I want your critiques to still improving.

One of my favourites song meanwhile I was drawing this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2DVZ1…

PS:It's time to paint Helma

Well I can’t say I recognise the tanks, but I asked my WoT obsessed boyfriend to have a go and he’s guessed H35’s. I hope that means something to you?

 

There’s some lovely detail work on the tracks, especially given the perspective of the nearest tank. Perspective in general seems very good, and I like how each of the soldiers has an interesting pose with character and action. I’m not entirely sure the scale seems quite right, as the tanks look quite small compared to the people – but then remember I know nothing about tanks!

 

You’ve done a nice job with the tree’s shadow, but I think some of the other features in the drawing – such as the soldiers in the mid-ground – might be lacking shadows. Similar with shading on the soldiers and tanks. Your lines are nice and accurate, but I think with a bit of shading you could really take this to the next level. Try to push the contrast a little more, make the darker areas even darker, and you’ll have a really striking drawing here!

This is obviously a Renault tank.
Maybe Renault FT, even tho the
cannons are too long for this model.

pretty awesome, the only things i would recommend on behalf of ProjectComment is to accentuate lights and darks and then to make colour more even. and most importantly: use shadows, use a central light source and then on the firing tank make it be a light source of its own... i really like the drawing, and if you do these i feel it will become a LOT better.

Thank you .Yeah I need to focus on shades ,it's my weakness.I appreciate  your comment alot.

IceKingPons In reply to CommanderErwinRommel [2017-01-07 22:55:02 +0000 UTC]

you could use an H or 2H pencil for shadows, and if you want to make it even you can smear it with your finger... charcoal is also good with this kind of technique

CommanderErwinRommel In reply to IceKingPons [2017-01-12 18:33:49 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I used 2H and H too paint the shades.I don't  know where I need to paint the shades,this is my main problem.
