John...your proportions are improving! The arch seems a bit lengthy though IMO...

 

[vocaldigital23]

Nocomment: DK is right, your arch is a bit long and moves too far forward into the forefoot. I think you need to build up the wall of your toe bumper just abit as well. Then you'll be golden. Way to keep at it! Just FYI, when I am designing, I will usually do anywhere from 20-30 redraws. Getting it rightrequires patience. So don't feel bad if you are drawing it for a third time or whatever. That's how it works

whoa, that is pretty serious! the cage was a good idea and the outsole and midsole are very nicely rendered. i dont know if i'm feeling the gold pod in theforefoot, but it works

Beautiful rendering Archie! What you did with PS , hands down, nits nice! As for the design, the swoosh kinda bothers me how its deformed. And maybe the shoespeaks for itself, doesnt need a swoosh slapped on. Cool stuff otherwise.

A new piece of work. Let me know what ya'll think!

Big improved on the shape.

What do you use to color?

I've been using these ChartPak markers to color lately. I LOVE em. Way more than prismas.

Johnny: The shape has improved, but you need to work on getting the features on the upper to be applied realistically. I'm gonna throw up a sketch for in aminute to show you what I mean.

Sorry if I come off pissy, but I think you're really close and want to help you improve.

 

[ak47celtics]

the proportions on this are not great, but i just wanted to point out a few things that could help you improve.

No, no hate thanks for the tips bro, I appreciate it! I see, maybe I'll rework it, or just consider these little things on other shoes. Thanks again!
