I had this issue as well until I started organizing everything I draw by month and year. Progress isn't always a breakthrough but goes bit by bit so you don't even realize it sometimes. Going back and reviewing works from a couple months ago actually lets you see that jump.

Where does one get nsfw commissions in 2024?

Anyone got any discord servers they can recommend? The forum world seems completely dead by now, which is what I last remember being a thing. Is hentai foundry still popular and does it get enough traffic to get an artist exposure/commissions?

I think JJK designs work well because they're distinct enough in their shape language. All characters can easily be broken down into 3-4 BLACK AND WHITE solid shapes, halftones are used being very sparingly by this artist. You can instantly discern Gojo's blot of ink headband. A 5yo could draw it if you asked him, which I think is a strength, and a big reasons this series got popular.
It's all made for action manga paneling, and even though JJK art is pretty rough and a lot of characters wear the same featureless black uniform, you can always instantly tell who is who at a glance.

>>7169431
Good advice, although I feel there needs to be a "back and forth" between the design and the concept. It'll come naturally when you try to integrate your design in a story though!

Very nice
It's so dark almost like you try to hide something haha
The eye that is open looks less like an eye but more like a screen. Its a very simplistic way of drawing eyes for such detailed piece
Also, I don't know what it is with the boys but something strikes me as off. I hope someone else can describe it better
Clothing general seems to be very tight looking especially around the arms
The chocker has no volume of its own , it just ends and starts where the throat does, its actually even smaller
But all in all good job

Nice anatomy study but I think you went a little too hard, making the muscles visible which gives the entire thing some unnatural colouring
The shadows in general look too dark
The crotch area also looks a bit funky desu I struggle with that myself still so I rather not go into greater detail
All in all good direction but you should study how other artists would draw this

>>7170464
Left has some nice colouring but the way you drew the pattern on her clothing makes it feel a little flat, it should bend a little I think
Right has a good attempt at a slightly more complicated angle, the arm suffers from it a little though
Also the knife has no volume of its own though
Pretty good

Has anyone here actually deeply, intently, and thoughtfully studied Proko's OG course, Figure Drawing Fundamentals?

Stan seems like a better artist than Vilppu, Eviston, Dodson, and all other meme ic teachers combined. The only other teacher who draws better than him is Steve Huston.

For those who did actually study Proko, what kind of gains did you make? Would you recommend it to beginners? intermediates? Would you even recommend it to pros?

Courses are for people without talent or absolute beginners who don’t know what to do at all. Talented individuals learn by simply drawing from books they choose to pick up which happens because they know instinctively how and what to study

34 replies and 4 images omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>7169990
I understand what you mean. Too much ambition is the biggest enemy of this kind of project, so I'm trying to keep things simple. Simplicity in results and processes.

I also think I understand how certain 'esoteric properties' of art balance others. According to my observations, 'time' (present in animation) or 'interaction' (present in video games) influence and balance the visual stimulus. Psychologically it is a whole, not just a part.
>>
>>7170551
You're ignoring what I'm saying man
I'm totally on board with the weird creative process or whatever, I genuinely like your art
It's just the aliasing ruins it and I can't imagine that's intentional
>>
>>7170558
gamedev here, look into sprite + asset scaling options for whatever game engine you're using. These things could range from scripts in your project, or as basic as the process of how you're exporting your art for the game, it all depends on more factors.
>>
>>7170558
>but have problems balancing a low resolution (not past 2000 pixels)
Isn't that MOST display systems for people? I'd recommend preparing your graphics at a smaller size if they're drawn so big that going below 2000 wrecks them. Though Maybe I'm completely misunderstand here? I'm obviously not a game developer, though I'd love to give it a try at some point.

One thing I would recommend trying though, if your work is losing its 'crispness', is trying to make your graphics vector. Vector's main strength is their scalability.

Yes. They are already used to no-layer drawing. Digital artists tend to overuse layers.

When the artist whose trained on no layers comes to a media where you can choose to use only 1 layer, he can do well. When the artist who is too used to using multiple layers comes to trad media, it can be difficult to adjust at first.
