>>7684037I love your drawing
>>7684068
>>7684069
>>7684073
>>7684076
>>7684037Love your style. What character ?>>7684064Nice stuff, love the way you drew the hoodie
>>7684080looks like bike cuck to me
>>7684037Very fun shapes and design.>>7684064A cute!He has great jeans.10/10 would slap his butt.
>>7684080Thanks a lot! Glad you liked it, I had fun drawing the hoodie>>7684238That was the goal, i wanted to make a cute femboy
Posting here for the first-time and I'm looking to get some feedback. I'm feel like the hair and shirt isn't quite right but I'd like to know what others might take issue with.>>7684037I really like the armor. I feel like you pulled something pretty tricky off really well with the arm and leg pieces.>>7684073Awesome style man really like the way you draw your faces. Also really great line work.>>7685119Very cute. The legs look really nice.
>>7686072The face is too moeblob in comparison to the size of those tits. Perhaps make her look a little older.
>>7684032What do you guys think of my masculine lines?
>>7684032Better than my previous attempt at a couple picIDK how to finish this tho... I tried coloring but dumped it looked like hot garbage(repost cuz I didn't notice then new thread)>>767887310/10 fucken saved god damn that's nice>>7676054Seriously great stuff posted ITT anon, I love these designs you've got hella sauce>>7673124hot af>>7671372S-tier shapes my man I'm in love
thanks
>>7686083Yeah okay I can see that. I guess if I were to fix it I would maybe change the shape of the eye and narrow the face a bit more?
>>7686084They're pretty clean but I think you could push the variation in line weight a bit more.
>>7686456just an opinion
>>7687015Peaksofvckingbeak
>>7687051what's the point it's a completely different style
>>7687051I was actually between this and the angle I went with when I was sketching..Went with the other because it felt like a softer expression but I do like the perspective on that sketch it's very clean>>7687572anon he was demonstrating the head tilt
>>7687572>>7687611Anons kinda right I did just take the easy way out and redraw it. I draw too often by gut instinct and I knew something about this face was really bothering me but I couldn't figure out why. Here is another attempt, I think ultimately my issue is with the angle of the elements on her face in relation to each other. like we are looking from above them so then how am I seeing a nostril? the lips and nose are too far apart for this angle they would be much closer. The eye thats closer to us should be lower. ALTERNATIVELY, she is giving him the SIDE look where women tilt their head. This is a much more SOFTER and MOTHERLY look which I think you may have been actually going for. In which case the lips should be angled in the same direction as the eyes from this high angleagain just an opinion
:}
A page for a friend >>7686072Thanks man! Your drawing is nice, but make the head a bit bigger next time >>7686084It’s interesting that you made a feminine face with masculine lines, but yeah the line weight would be the saving grace here. For example the line between the lips should be darker to indicate compression and the hair shouldn’t have more line weight than the skin because the skin is flesh, which is weighty, compared to hair, which appears lighter in this image
>>7688535This is badass. Great style
Some flockmod doodles.
my attempt at drawing smoker...haha>>7686166wow more colored work from you :O
and more magma
>>7690272wow I think this is my first time seeing you draw in these proportions :O

>>7689305I love this retro style!!
i tried a new way to shade>>7691038good drawing
>>7684032/ALT/ is always so cozy
I wonder if I should start posting here instead of beg. Though I don't think I'm quite there yet
>>7690283>>7690280uuh... blog?
>>7698650stop worrying about whatever dumbass skill groups ic has made and just post
>>7698650Honestly, I’m terrible at drawing, but I’m posting it here, so I don’t think there’s any problem>>7699790true... (nice ass)

Doing a fill in the oc thread.>>7684037God this kind of controlled simplicity is what I need in my life.>>7684068>>7684069>>7684073>>7684076>>7684078These are wonderful. Are you drawing from life?
>>7686456Beautiful lines. Can I have your socials?
>>7701886And your socials too? So many great artists in this thread.
First time I’ve been in a flow state while drawing in about a year, very fun.Any recs for drapery hatching studies? I usually copy Dürer’s pillows, some of Leyendecker’s drawings, and also Range Murata’s pencil sketchbooks.
for today
>>7702744Lovely. Is this your WoW char? And more importantly, is it Turtle WoW?
>>7702212the way you did the arch of the shoulder blade, armpit folds, gesture of the elbow and forearm and the hand reaching out is pretty crazy aka really nice arm>>7702352not a big hatcher sorry>>7701886still trying to get the soft weak feeling of women down, even when they're muscly their muscles are strangely different to a man's for obvious biological reasons
>>7703336
This is probably the millionth time I’ve fucked with her design
>>7702745no i just like elf
>>7703336>the way you did the arch of the shoulder blade, armpit folds, gesture of the elbow and forearm and the hand reaching out is pretty crazy aka really nice armThanks! I'm kind of surprised it came as well as it did because the sketch was pure garbage lolCan I have your socials? I love what you've posted, your forms have got a real solidity to them.
>>7703847kman4e4 on twitter
>>7703938I keep changing how I draw her, this is old. Trying to stay consistent with this design >>7699790since I like this eye shape more
>>7705785Love his hat. Thought the cross was a shadow at first glance.
Been a while since I actually finished something
>>7692812The guy from that Hot Topic shirt
dodl>>7706206really really rike it
>>7706206cool but the tail kinda ruins the silhouette, either move it to make some space or darken it to visually separate it from the torso
do the dew
Can someone with a really big and impressive brain help me with the colours? struggling to pick nice colours for the home interior. Everything I try always looks very messy and clustered. Though that might just be from my lack of skill when it comes to drawing backgrounds in general tbf
>>7708520try looking at the show background for reference in color schemes, or take screenshots of the background and then bring to your drawing software and change hue/value/saturation until you find your prefered pallete.
This is painful, I wish I was faster.I like right for some reason but it doesn't look as good as the left somehow.>>7702214>>7702216Those are both me, thanks anon I appreciate it.@Melkokan on Twt. I rarely post though my friends are pushing me to do it more.Also yeah /alt/ really leveled up it's crazy
>>7711966Imo on the left her big eye draws attention directly to her face. On the right there's less of a focal point. Also left has a more obvious expression, she looks concerned while the right could be sleepy, lust, etc.
>>7711999I agree>>7711966left is better
>>7708520start by simplifying the total space to a 3 step notan that has a color harmony you like then try to distinguish local objects without disrupting the big 3 steps you established. Here's a quick mock up of the idea with the 3 steps I picked in the middle.
>>7711966i'm going to take the controversial opinion and say right is better. Its problem is that she is not looking at him but off into the distance, where as left she is looking up at him. I also like right more because she has a concerned expression which makes me think the guy is kinda dangerous which is hotter.
>>7713987I like the colors and the knife movement!
>>7714032thank you fishwife
having trouble separating the boobs and tummy section with the arm
>>7699307@ibaylego
>>7706825

>>7721679nice, who is the character
>>7721798Do you happen to draw girls with girthy massive cocks by any chance?
>>7721862not unless I'm getting paid a huge amount of money, my dignity comes at a cost

>>7713497For some reason I think you watched Kienan Lafferty tutorials
>>7723706futa is a whole other thing which I'm only giving into for big commission bucks
>>7723767thats a weird fucking dildo what the fu- aaah its a mask I see that pink tube is a pony tail. I know about warhammer assassins so I can make this connection
>>7723767I honestly just asked because your facial style reminds me of a bear
>>7721319I fucking lost it on episode 10. Xenomorph stocking that eats itself with an ouroboros vagina. I dont want this ride to end
Bamp
>>7721319I love how despite how stylized this is you can feel the 3D thickness of the form. I wish I could achieve something similar. The depth of form makes the unreal, real.
>>7684032oh i made it into the op. cool
Hi
>>7684037love ts
>>7714109Add some cyan hued rim light
Made this with a limited color palette >>7692271Thankies
>>7730797
>>7730798
tried to do some art without any line work. Always admired artists who look more "painterly" >>7730803very nice
>>7730881I like them. They definitely have an appeal. But to be honest I prefer your linework but that might just be because I'm a lines guy.
>>7684032Finally playing with color here and there.
>>7700905I am into this. What else ya got?
>>7714800Peak
>>7731293:) it honestly feels so good when people like my natural art style. It feels like a part of me is being accepted and I don't have to pretend to be something i'm not. thank you very much
>>7730881I think artists appreciate linework but normies less so. Another attempt
Gimp suit
>>7731632Keep doing what you're doing, fren. Your stuff is great. I would love to see more sometime.

Spent the whole day doodling wassup.
I shat out this piece last night (read: this morning) and, apart from the obvious technical blunders, the "glaze" I put over it deemphasized the subjects. Depending on the monitor I'm using the characters are too desaturated and they blend in with the intentionally chaotic background. I didn't know how to create holes in the glazing without it being an obvious bright spot, the exception to this being the window. I was going for a California sunset since sunsets here flood houses with yellow light. IDK man I was so tired of working on it I uploaded it without even signing the damn thing.
>>7728717Cute Louise, now draw the rest of her torso and make a naked edit for me? Thnx senpai
wannabe breakcore album cover
Alright people of /ALT/, does my current art have any sort of general appeal outside of being faux 2000s anime with amateur heavy inking? What do you feel I should change If I'm exclusively going full digital? For reference, I'm going for a look similar to Soul Eater era Atsushi Ohkubo and Hiroyuki Takei
An attempt at a shoujo-ish style with the square-ish eyes. I really don't get how they work desu.Like i referenced a lot to draw this pic (mostly CLAMP stuff) but if you told be to rotate it sideways I couldn't really intuit how they work>>7731891yup, people want to see colors and renders. I personally really love artists with great linework too but sketches and colors are what audiences want to see.>>7735880I mean for those two you'll really want to push your shape design, they're work barely depends on hatching. Guys like Mike Mignola are similar in a way, weirdly enough.>>7728717cute
>>7731970Really really good

>>7737064Yuji Ohno mentioned!!!! This is so fucking good
What the fuck is Alt?

I like sniff gluehttps://files.catbox.moe/c56orf.pngDraw poo-poo? Call it alt and sell for 6 gorillion shekels :D:D:D:DD:
Are there any actual /beg/ level online artists with 5 digits followers count online? I don't want to "get good" before getting an audience and my art has already been ripped to shreds by the people over here, so I need achievable examples taking the present in consideration instead of the usual "lol just wait years to get gud" responses.
>>7744343where's your art?
>>7744958up your ass
>>7744343uhhhh clearly you havent been paying attention because nearly all popular online artists are beg tier
>>7744343there are plenty but most do porn or webcomics. aka their art has value that is tied to something other than their skill level. you don't really have to do porn or webcomics but you have to have something that people want to follow you specifically for. if your art isn't interesting despite its flaws, then you might as well just spend time getting gud. most of the time getting an online social media audience is a crapshoot anyways and is reliant on how much the algorithm likes you.

>>7746803nice coloring! i love the color vibration on the skin and wings
>>7731284I really fuck with this? What’s that hand doing though?
>>774098810/10 would let him torture me to live off of my phychic and emotional turmoil
Always regretted never turning on the timelapse until halfway done with a drawing, turns out you can have it enabled by default when you create a new canvas lol.>>7739758I love your lineart.>>7740988I love yours as well, your style is really appealing and your character is cute.
>>7737064This actually made me feel something anon. Really well done, what a gorgeous concept.
a bunch of randoms
>>7736353Oh I finished this, gonna post a new sketch 1s>>7746803the hue variation on this is really nice
>>7747278>hands giving me a hard time>haven't drawn in the flowers yet>just remembered I have to do plaid in pixels for herbeing a Yuukaenjoyer is suffering
>>7745001could have pointed out what art is yours so I can give advice>>7747278 >>7747281really good line art holy MEGA PRO
>>7688864this is really cool, the way you did his dreads on the bottom left reminds me of school composition notebooks
>>7747652Thanks anon! The composition notebook comparison is so cool, I never thought of it that way

Stupid IP range ban won't let me upload images/files in the threads, cubari/catbox isn't an option either.Hope this will suffice https://imgur.com/a/pNfGky8
I haven't used gouache in years but decided to pick it back up again for this painting. It was fun, but also really hard because of how much the colors change when they dry. I hope to do more gouache in the future>>7737152Thanks! Yuji Ohno's Cosmos album is one of my favorite albums of all time >>7737733>>7739516>>7746618Thankies! I was gonna give up on finishing it because I got annoyed with shading the wings, but I'm glad I didn't>>7739760I got most of the effects by using the Dot Machining Action Set on clip studio. I did a lot of paper and layer effects on top of it too to make it look more aged. It takes me about 30 minutes to do all the post processing, but I love doing it so I don't mind too muchI wanted to reply to all the comments, but if I reply to anymore my post will be marked as spam. I still really appreciate the people who commented on my art
