Man i guess fig was dead just when i got backAnyways, i am still figging so I’ll try to keep the thread alive
>>7725122figurativesketching, the gesture, the long axis curve, the fluid like quality, I don't want to feel the form but I want to feel the connections between the forms>>7725378looking good, /fig/ for life, the thread wants to fall off the catalog before it even starts, dang
>my shitty sumos made the OPneato. senpai noticed me. i shall draw figures..... ALL WEEKEND! no excuses
>>7725469they're cool what are you on about
>>7725492i mean, they aint that bad, but i feel i could try harder seeing my peers here being really good
careful with the bulges
What book do I copy to get good at anatomy?
>>7725552anatomy for sculptors for details morpho for easy/simple references
>>7725122Oh thank you for making a new thread.I was too busy I forgot about everything.
>>7725416I really like the fluidity of your lines and posing. Im currently trying to teach myself gesture drawing.Not full figure drawing but I did some 1 minute sketches of hands and feet. I butchered the hands but I think i did okay on most of the feet.
>>7725877
>>7725877just keep at it with the hands, it'll click eventually. i've been trying to do them with the bones in mind so the placement is logically sound. you should try to draw some skelly hands from reference and then memory just to ingrain the anatomical design, helping you to draw real hands. but your feet look good. thank god the toes arent as complicated as fingers
anyone want to join me in a challenge?let's draw 100 gestures/figures (any level of finish/detail, only requirement is that they are complete)
athletic ladies are nice to study from
Love me some figure drawing. I really shouldn't skip the face though..
reecent study on drawpile. I love figure drawing.
i haven't drawn in a couple months, trying to get off the rust
>>77253789/100 The faces got me again>>7725469The sumos are readable and easy to find while scrolling through the catalogue. Also they amuse me deeply which is why they were selected>>7725910> let's draw 100 gestures/figures I’m down, I’ll try to get to 100 before this thread dies. Which is unclear how long that will be. I started counting from my early post in the thread>>7726354These are fucking hot - no homo
>>7726354You will never be Japanese or a good artist
>>7726367thanks for the kind words, tablefren
why do i turn all my vilppu beans into sexy women
>>7726367Almost defeated by 12, the paper was giving up on me and losing fibers>>7727393Did that old fuck die yet? I hate that man so much. He makes me not want to draw.
>>7727395what pencils are you using? It seems you're using a sharp point. I can't go nearly as dark and clean with mine.Also I'm noticing vast improvements over your earlier drawings posted, a lot cleaner in every regard/better readable shapes, so it seems you're quickly regaining your skills. The legs of the middle one seem a little bit off, and the pose is perhaps too exaggerated, the lower back seems to stretch out too much (but then again I don't have the reference so who knows)
random garbage
>>7727504keep on keeping on, its not as bad as you think. confidence can get you really far. in the end, its literally all in the head, what you do and what you perceive, so going in with positivity and a certain amount of chris-chan like delusion can be a lot of help. you have to think like a master to be a master.
I struggle with legs so muchneed to constantly erase and redraw
>>7727689looks cute, no homo. reminds me of kuro from sekiro, but i suspect its gacha? maybe? either way, recognizing ones mistakes is vital, redrawing is not a bad thing at all. if anything its the best you can do, instead of leaving mistakes as they are. try to recognize what exactly it is that you do wrong more often than not and work on that and be aware of it. i personally tend to make long faces stemming from long noses, looking all alien in the end. i tend to do the same with hands, where they are just longer than they should be, instead of compact, closer to spherical when closed, not eliptical.
>>7727707>but i suspect its gacha? maybe?nah it just really like bobcut haircutsi can't draw them for shit so i'm just gonna start putting them on all my studies>redrawing is not a bad thing at all. if anything its the best you can dothe problem is that i keep doing the same mistakesi do plan to do leg study for a while hopefully i'll get something from it at the end of it.
>>7727666thank you I appreciate the advice, it’s true that I should approach drawing with more optimism
>>7727725make sure to study the bones as well, that helps me a lot, just getting the sizes and placement right
>>7727729nobody aims for the gutter when bowling, but you should aim for a strike.
