Hm, I like the lighted one more for color, but the gray one shows off the darkening better. Having darkened does improve it quite a bit. If you watch some of Aubrey's speed paints, you'll see he darkens up quite a lot, so experiment with it and see how much you like to use. It does create some needed contrast though, and it made your art quality 'jump' a little. Just looks more refined when you darken your stuff.
I'll leave details and such to other people, but it looks pretty good.

Here's the pic after using SumoPaint's "Auto Tone" filter and some other stuff. Don't be afraid to have darker backgrounds, especially on "night" pictures.

Image

That looks like night, because outside of the light's area it's dark. Your original picture looks like a a light, cloudy day, because the environment is very bright, with no harsh shadows, but the light is gray instead of warm yellow it'd be in direct sunlight. And it's DAY, not night, or even evening, because it's light everywhere. The firelight is only a tiny bit brighter than the overall lighting. Something like this isn't very dramatic.
A dark blue night background is often a good contrast against the light, warm yellows and reds of the fire.

Endoperez's looks pretty good, Last's as well, you guys quite improved it. Also thanks Silverfish and Korban for the help! Can I get a Huzzah for community teamwork?! =D

And, since I'm feeling better today, I'll start it with two more drawings, a sea dog and a sea bunny! Originally they'd be on a ship and on the same picture, like a pirate crew, but I think I'll have to practice making "complete scenes" a lot more before they look passable.

P.s: Colouring of those and last week's drawings will be my next assignment!

Edit: Here's a colouring of my previous drawing Samura(bb)i(t). The top Kanji is "aku", meaning evil/bad and the bottom is "usagi", hare/rabbit. Hopefully I got your tips right. =)

He looks like he should be old, but the right side of his face is startlingly young looking. It's disconcerting. Good job though, I like it. The others are good too, but sea dogs telescope looks like its pointing weirdly with relation to his eye. It should be pointed the same way as his face, but it seems off. Also the fake leg seems too modern, though it is cool. Good work as always!

Hm, his face does look a little young. I think it is how the eye is. If it looked more tired, maybe a slight bag under the eyes he would look like he'd been through more. But that background is a nice contrast and you didn't over-color it. I think this one looks good.

I agree, although his right lip isn't sagging as much as the left, also slightly contributing to its youngness. You should over exaggerate both sides, that would be pretty awesome.

I made a new Endoface, and I can pretty much guarantee it is NSFW, so check your 6 for da' boss!

Awesomely drawn, Ylvali! I looked at it a couple of times, I cringed every time at that beheaded bunny. I also am noticing a distinct lack of pants on the most recent pictures...

Anyways, coloured sea bunny, and I'll fix and colour the dog next. The only problem I see with the dog's peg leg is that I'm not sure how to make it not modern looking, if I make it straight, it won't fit with his natural leg, maybe I'll add some sort of belt or rope, I don't know.

Sea dog coloured! I'm trying to work with new stuff, I kinda gave him a "aura"- sort of - background, fixed his peg leg to look older, I hope it's better now, and fixed the telescope's angle I think, it still feels a bit off, but I almost cut a hole through the paper trying to get it right...

P.s: Should I take a stab at a Platypus man?

Haha, when I saw that picture of the cat lady and the decapitated rabbit, my first thought was "Crazy bitch." and then it was "Hey, like my sister." and then "Wait, that's a cat and not a dog." Nice drawing
And I like what you did with the Sea Dog. I think looks cool, and that peg leg looks more fitting as well. The aura thing is cool looking, but it threw me off because I'm used to your art not having it XD It's not bad or anything, just unexpected.

Here it is, platypus man, very platypus, not so much man, but still...
Anyway, he's a male platypus, he has the venomous spurs, protecting his wife's eggs! Ah, platypuses are such astonishing creatures. =D
