I don't understand how can someone have such clean lines using graphite. Everytime I draw my lines end up chunky as hell, is it the pencil? Graphite size? I don't get it

>lines end up chunky as hell
Use smoother paper and get a pencil with hardness that is comfortable to you (for me it's 3B) and sharpen it properly. Or just use a mechanical pencil. And make bigger drawings. The only problem I have with drawing lines like this is that my hand smudges the lines, but that's just how it is with my hand posture... I prefer the darker lines I get when using india ink fineliners anyway though.
>>
>>7160267
You could try using good filters after scanning your drawings. Smoothen lines, adjust contrasts etc.. Also, you can spend more time going over the same lines to thicken them in the right places and make them more prominent. Horikoshi did it too.

>>7161676
Draw bigger motives. And try using a softer pencil than HB
>>
why is this board obsessed with clean sketch lines, the entire point of a sketch is to be loose and experiment. Then you redo it, add shading etc and finally ink.

it's like no one has actually watched a pro work from concept to finish on trad before, just digital slop artists.

i'm not an expert but, gave it a try

you can probably work a bit more on overlaps to increase the 3D effect and a bit of study for deeper anatomy.
the drawing is pretty good in general, i like it.

Do you practice urban sketching regularly?
Practicing urban sketching is the only thing that gets me out of the house, and it has been essential for me to improve my freehand drawing and observation. I usually only carry 3 fine line pens and a sketchbook, but I'm thinking of getting some watercolors. I usually go to squares that aren't very busy, as I still have difficulty dealing with crowded environments.
It's a very positive and therapeutic activity. I used to be very depressed, but when I'm in crisis I always take my materials and go out to draw, regardless of the time of day. I don't think about making beautiful or perfect drawings, I just let the stream of consciousness flow and capture the essence

If you can wake up as soon as the sun rises, it's a good time to visit places that are usually crowded. I recommend you visit small villages near your city too, it's really nice to draw too. I recommend getting an electric or normal bicycle, it's very useful.
Something that /travel/ talks about a lot, first try to appreciate the place you're visiting, capture it and try to apply it through your drawings, no matter how aesthetically ugly it may be. Look at it as more than just drawing, but as something that also brings you inner peace, where you can connect with natural and man-made beauty.
The great authors of comics and manga look for inspiration in everyday life, they leave the house with their sketchbook and start observing and drawing, but they try to use all their senses when observing. This is why we are able to connect so easily with the works of authors such as Jiro Taniguchi and Hayao Miyazaki. Regardless of the type of story you intend to draw, whether it's fiction or fantasy, the elements you've absorbed in everyday life will be extremely useful

what's the move if a girl is staring at you while drawing? do you smile and wave at her?
>>
>>7161419
Normally, when you're drawing architecture, you don't even realize that someone is watching you because you're so focused. If the fact that they're watching you bothers you, it's best to distance yourself. Now, if your goal is to try to interact with people, I recommend that you look for urban sketching groups, every big city has urban sketching groups, search on social networks.
I'm autistic and avoid all possible interaction, but older people are pleasant to interact with briefly. In general, I rarely draw people, but elderly people are my only exception, because when we cross eyes I don't feel intimidated

>What's a webtoon?
Webtoon is the ancient Korean art of scrolling comics. Instead of traditional manga/comic pages, panels are spread out individually for easier reading on cell phones.

>So they're just spliced manga/comic pages?
You can do that if you want, but they're fundamentally different for a few reasons. For example, panels tend to be drawn longer to fit phone screens, and traditional 2-page spreads are not possible to fit in scrolling format.

>Are there standard page sizes?
Technically yes, but it depends on which platform you post in. Naver Webtoons uses
800x1280px, but the site automatically splices & resizes images anyway.

>Do I have to make it in color?
If you want subscribers, yes.

>Why would I make one?
To be rich & famous, of course. All jokes aside, the pay is low if you're lucky enough to get hired in the first place, the deadlines are more brutal than the manga industry, and the average reader age floats around 11. But as a novel medium with a growing industry, it may still be worthwhile enough for you to experiment.

Thats her point.

She was formerly a meeky bullied girl that just happened to win the power of god.
Taking a face similar to their equivalent of this world's Taylor Swift and making sure everyone in the world dances to her song.
Also might get pretty mad if the protagonist chooses the other heroine.

Also, she can still be beaten in battle if tricked, as she only sees the future of what she wants to see. Aka, a fight. Then be surprised by a sudden attack from someone or something she didnt think was a factor.
