theres just something about the way people talk about ekky: "gorgeous photo of aaron ekblad" "he is humble, well-spoken and impossibly handsome" and "sight for sore eyes"

Ok so... this person, @curly-b-blog asked me to criticize this art. So here I am.

For context this piece is supposed to replicate this panel shot in the switcheroo au made by @saiscribbles.

Because Curly thinks that the anatomy is bad and tried to fix her art. Even though there's nothing really wrong with it. Hell, the only reason why Curly is giving this "criticism" this is because Sai is against Lily Orchard and Curly is defending Lily Orchard for some reason. Here's the post if you want to look at it: Curly's "Critique" Originally I wasn't gonna say anything, but they asked for critique so here I am. I'll also be I will be comparing the two drawings because I Curly is blowing things out of proportion. And I genuinely hope she can learn. Because unlike Curly I don't give people criticism to bash other people and hinder them. I give it because I genuinely want people to learn and grow. Anyways onto the criticism.

I'm gonna point out that Curly added 5 fingers on one hand and 4 on the other. It's a simple mistake I know, but I wanted to point it out in case it happens again for the future. Or if they just didn't notice. The main thing I have a problem is with the legs on Curly. It's very stiff and static for a pose that should be fluid and expressive. It doesn't help that perspective of the legs doesn't match up with the body. You see the reason why Sai's drawing works is because the body is all in one perspective, adiagonal one, meanwhile Curly's is a more front facing one. Here's a picture to help demonstrate since I know I don't explain things very well:

That's why the legs don't exactly work out and it looks confusing. Especially when you consider that the hips aren't stretched out. In Sai's you can see that that the hips are stretched to match the movement of the legs. Meanwhile Curly's doesn't, they're just big ol balloons that don't go anywhere. Making the pose seem like it's stiff and unmoving even though the drawing is clearly depicting the character walking. I reworked the pose since again I'm not good at explaining things. And I know some people are visual learners.

I know Curly's gonna say something like: "Well that was the point since Sai's legs weren't right at all. You just proved my point sweetie." However like I said Sai's perspective is more diagonal one, and Spinel is a cartoon gem so her anatomy isn't exactly human. in fact the legs come out of Spinel's poofy hips. They aren't like a normal humans. And also I don't think it's the leg that's the issue. I think it's the white frills connecting to the leg. I think they should be more of an angle rather than a side view and not the actual leg. Anyways that's all I have to say, hope this was helpful.
