His/her waist is too low on their body. You said this was supposed to be him/her standing with a hand on their hip and leaning to one side correct? Like Steven said, reference material would do you good for poses. If you can't find a reference pose for the exact pose you are trying to get, you could always ask somebody to take a picture of you doing the pose so you have exactly what you want for a reference.

You have an account on DeviantArt, non? I recommand you skim through Senshishock's profile. She specialises in poses one can employ as reference material.

Had way too much fun designing this. Probably a bit over cluttered, but this is more about the posing than anything. Quickly degenerated from holding a ball to holding an explosive to admiring a robotic rifle arm.

See how much smart use of reference material improves one's ability to produce art?

Remember that art is, in fact, an individual's extension of reality based on his or her imagination. Art is reality; your reality. What better way to shape it then to draw inspiration from your excisting persception of reality?

Gas masks are so cool, you don't even know.

This one's 100% custom. It's not supposed to have feet.

Guess which one took a few hours and which one took about 30 minutes.


1st one was designed to be incredibly gangly, with a small body and incredibly long limbs, along with the skull mask.
2nd is designed as an interpretation of Belphegor, Demon Lord of Sloth. Depicted as an ugly demon sitting on a toilet (Odd, I know) and entices men to be lazy with advanced machines. I made him an incredibly fat horned humanoid slob who sits on a toilet large mechanical walker, which has caused his legs to become stubby. The tentacles on his back are supposed to be wires, meant to be inserted into other demonic machines.

Both are 100% custom, which is probably a risk I need to take.

Their nice

and also why does the second one resemble Dr.Octopus

I wasn't aware Doc Oct was a morbidly obese horned human on a toilet...


I assure you he had no influence.

I think he may have ment the Marvel character 'Mojo';



Although I suspect he may also refer to the 'tentacles' sprouting from it's back. Which remind me more of Venom then doc Ock to be honest.

I have no idea who that is.

Calm down pal, I just happen to remember the character from Marvel vs Capcom, and assumed he may have ment it when reffering to your character due to the similairities. I'm not trying to claim that you based your guy on Mojo.

Just clarifying.

How do they actually look, not that we have that cleared up?

I dunno Mac, the first seems like a Nightmare Before Christmas reject. His design doesn't really have anything going for him.

Mojo Sir Slothsticuffs eyes boring. The shading of the flabs is impressive, but the robot legs could really use some reflective shading and a more vibrant pallet.

Try to give your pallets some life in general, it will really benefit your characters.
