Description
Inspired by the song Skun'kape Action from SaM Season 3 - [link]I don't know what it is about that song, but it makes me think of bubbles!
My entry for the SaM Fanart Contest - [link]
Still up for edit, so opinions would be greatly appreciated! ^^
Edit: Taken some people's advice - made Sam's tiny noggin larger, so his hat wouldn't fit in the bubble any more and got it's own. It was also suggested I make the tie smaller but I think it looks about right now I've changed Sam's proportion a bit. I've also outlined Sam and Max's feet and hands, but I'm not sure if you can tell. Finally I've tried to give the bubbles a bit more depth, like you can tell which are in front of which others (I'm sure there's a specific word for that, spactial perception? I dunno, but that

I only just noticed Max's ears curve on the inside of the bubble.
That's cute, still brilliant work.

Thanks! And now I think of it, it does look a tad Easter-y - maybe the colours?

Thanks, I'm surprised really 'cos it didn't take as long drawing the guys as it usually would - that thing about drawing people as shapes first totally works!

BUBBLESBUBBLESBUBBLES. I really love how colorful and whimsical this is. Only constructive crit I can suggest is you could draw the edges of their hands and feet, and Max's ears. It's not essential to do so, but the extra detail may lift the picture a little. It looks great though

Hey I took your advice and drew the edges of SaM's hands and feet - look better?

This reallly transcends fanart since that IS Sam and that IS Max. You've an uncanny ability to render those two perfectly.

Well, if I had to say one, I would say that maybe Sam's head looks a little off, kind of small in comparison to his body. Max on the other hand I felt was done perfectly. I think Sam's tie is a little huge for his body altogether, maybe a little bit of adjustment would help. I felt you got the shape down though, really nice.
That's all I have to say for now. When I get back from the store I'll tell you more.

Firstly, I'm so sorry for responding so late!! Things got busy for me.
Yeah, it does look better. I think the bubbles look pretty good too, it's a big improvement that looks really sharp.
If you feel insecure about any other thing in your artwork, feel free to let me know.

Thanks, I'll work on those tonight - and yeah, Sam's head's always a bit of a problem for me, why can't he be easier to draw?

Cheruphim In reply to rubygloommel [2011-04-05 01:09:18 +0000 UTC]
You're right, I always have a hard time drawing Sam too
Maybe it's because he's so sexy? That's why I can't see how people can draw him perfectly on their first try.

WHAT? First try? PFFFFT! *spits out drink in amazement* I always thought EVERYONE struggled with Sam, made me feel just a bit better lol

I know right?!?! Well don't worry, I pretty much struggle with Sam a lot too. It took me forever to figure out how to draw him, and I probably would've been lost if *ShadRen4ever didn't make a tutorial about drawing him. It really helped me out a LOT.

rubygloommel In reply to Cheruphim [2011-04-06 06:43:27 +0000 UTC]
Agreed, that tutorial's a lifesaver! Although I don't use the cartoony style so much - I'm not really sure which Sam mine would be closest to...it's just the one I can draw

Cheruphim In reply to rubygloommel [2011-04-06 22:35:49 +0000 UTC]
Yup. I don't really use the cartoon style that much either.. Purcell's style is beautiful, but it's so complicated to replicate it. I think you have an enjoyable style with Sam though.

rubygloommel In reply to Cheruphim [2011-04-07 07:15:47 +0000 UTC]
Thankyou ^^ But yeah, Purcell's style is difficult - usually I can draw something cartoony after few times but learning to draw a half-way good Sam took aaaaaaaaages

Cheruphim In reply to rubygloommel [2011-04-08 03:31:40 +0000 UTC]
Indeed. It's a good thing the rest of the characters in Sam and Max are 50% easier to draw.
