My point is that it doesn't look like they are actually fighting each other.

Not only the poses look really stiff, they don't even seem right.
Just search UFC women doing headlocks on Youtube and judge for yourself if the one on the cover makes sense.

The hand on her right definitely needs the more work, not sure if the general constitution is wrong or if you need to add more detail through painting

I don't like being rude but okay

You fucking ass, what do you think coming here with a almost perfect drawing? Are you trying to get your ego stroked so you can forget your insecurities?
Listen up asshole, even a guy with your skill makes mistakes or gets so up his own ass with details that he fails to see if stuff makes sense or looks good.
For one I think the cigarette smoke shouldn't have yellow in it for no reason, you probably will say "much light reflection" you ever someone smoke a fag before? Smoke is not dense enough for reflections like that

Yeah okay this was all I had
Pic is really good anon any more negative critic would be disingenuous to your work
Though I don't know what he is holding in his other hand. Is this a shield?
Also going with a overall green tone makes gives the price alot of character kinda like the matrix movie
But you messed up the linework under his elbow at the hip. This sticks out

Dont be afraid to always look at artists you like for inspiration. They may not share their technics with you but sometimes you can find the raws of their images on sites that leak their paid content

The general thread for Manga / manga-styled comic-making, manga-style illustration and related comic work. That said, everyone is welcome here.

Support each other and talk about your work or the work of others that excites you. Inking, character design, paneling / layout, writing, planning, and other discussions are all welcome.
Post resources, questions, in-progress pages, breakdowns of other works, etc. If a work is not yours, credit the maker (unless it's fucking obvious like a full page of One Piece or something).
Thanks to everyone for making /mmg/ a level-headed and helpful place. Remember, drawing and making comics and manga are difficult endeavors, and we're all in this struggle together.

write it anyway / watch romcoms
>>
>>7162550
Romance isn't the only part of slice of life, anon, there's literally everything else. But if you're super adamant regarding the romance angle, then the next-best substitute (not that it's super great, mind you, but it's what's there) is to simply watch or read famous media that deal with romance (both as the major point and as a subplot). Literally read and watch as much as you're willing to. You will see what the characters do or feel at certain points and you'll at least be able to mimic those points.

Again, this substitute ain't great, but it's what you're left with at this specific point in time.

Please make sure your posted image is clear, downsized to around 1000 pixels wide, rotated to the correct orientation, and that any unused space is cropped.
If you want critique on a drawing from the previous thread, you can delete it there and repost in this one.

I don't know how others use it but like i said i only use it to smooth things out.
I took sections from this woth the lasso tool and put it over my existing drawing then lowered opacity to get a more uniform skin texture.
I could've done something similar with just brushes but this saves up time.
It's just a tool, don't think too much about it. Either use it or don't.
>>
>>7160255
You got it wrong but the reply still holds value. I never had self worth and the worth of my drawing faded away with time. By trying to claw out some "success" out of the only thing I loved so I could shove it in the face of the world i lost all meaning. So I guess I should just start working on myself a bit.
I just wanted to win once man. I wanted to show everyone and myself that it wasn't all for nothing. I should had known better

If you're looking for a place to post your cartooning then you've found the right general. This is /ic/s 1st and only merged hub where both Eastern and Western stylization can coexist peacefully, hence the double title.

(1) Any form of cartooning is welcome; so submit and receive feedback from others. (2) Please resize your images before posting. (3) Share your knowledge and (4) Remember to not be afraid of asking for critique. Most importantly, keep discussion at a civil level.

To distinguish from the anime study thread (janitor supported). Please post your studies there and personal work goes here.

the only reason im redlining anything is because this is already rlly good so im nitpicking details

i think the upper torso is a bit too long for her proportions, also a detail but the staff overlaps her ear creating a weird tangent so maybe u can move it a bit so it reads more clearly, otherwise this is already looking good
