WIP: Some Guy's Shoe - And A Girl

[monkey0506]

Okay, at this point I'm only asking about one thing. The shoe. You can feel free to comment on anything else, but this is part of a larger project I'm working on (not dreadfully larger...I'm just coloring in a few images I've drawn). This is my first time to really take the time to try and do something like this (coloring a pencil'd image properly), so please try not to be too harsh.

I'm asking specifically about the shoe because...I'm not sure if it fits. I mean...I really want him to have Converses (which in case you couldn't tell is supposed to be the type of shoe he's wearing), but that's not what I originally drew (I'm pretty crap with shoes...they always come out big and cartoony and clowny...). In the end what I did for this shoe was I actually found an image on Google, shrank it down, and traced over it for the outline. And now it doesn't seem like it fits into the image.

It could just be the fact that I know he didn't originally have Converses and that I didn't actually draw the shoe, but that's why I'm asking.

As for the black outline around his arms, he's supposed to be wearing a fishnet-mesh sort of shirt underneath his other shirt...but I'm not really sure how to work that out. Anybody with any comments/ideas/paintovers is welcome to help.

Thanks as always for any comments. Oh...and also I have this one that includes the girl (but no shoe for the guy):



I'm pretty much done with her for now...so you can pick her apart however you'd like.

Also...I feel that perhaps the difference in the eyes makes it seem like they aren't supposed to be in the same style/theme...really they aren't. They were drawn as separate entities, but I'm combining them together for their similarities...not their differences. Of course there could be some chance that they look similar enough that I'm just being silly.
