Drawing is the only thing I have which makes me happy (and porn). Should I draw more? It just always seems so senseless to sit in front of a paper alone in your room sketching lines, you know what I mean? And it's also difficult.

Big recommend on this one, it’s a daunting watch time and will take you twice as long at least to get through while doing the exercises/taking notes but you will never un-learn something this thorough and need to come back. If you want to master the fundamentals of perspective do atleast the first half of this series (I think dedicating 50 hours to small variations in 3 point perspective is a bit excessive so I’d cherry pick a few of the later chapters and judge for yourself)

https://www.nma.art/courses/a-complete-guide-to-perspective-for-artists-with-erik-olson/

It’s a paid course, not it specifically but it’s hosted on New Master’s Academy which requires a monthly subscription. If you’re dedicated to this to the degree that you want to draw for a living, it’s worth the money if you can finish 150-200 hrs of effortful studying & practice in 2 months (thereby only paying the monthly fee twice). Obviously you can go longer but it’s paying more to go slower and retain less, so I wouldn’t recommend it. If you can sink at least 20 hrs a week into this you’ll come out of it with better perspective skills than 99.9% of twitter artists.

Take this with a grain of salt as I came up with this sort of plan today while showering.

basically, steps:
> Draw a picture from imagination
> Isolate the worst areas
> Do studies of such areas
> Do the picture again
> Repeat until the picture looks decent
How can it be improved?

I'm afraid only aphantasiacs can learn to draw from imagination, as oxymoronic as it might sound...

>>7442321
You will see instant improvement when you copy a Torchic from reference, then draw another one from imagination. You can definitely recognize a Torchic, but your memory of Torchics is more wishy washy than you thought. I'd mess up a Torchic from imagination, too, would get that fuzz around its neck mixed up and not remember whether it had tiny wings in addition to the fuzz, or not.

start with the placement of features on the face. I can see you've tried to construct under it, but your construction was rushed and useless. find a better method. slow down.

Yep, I completely failed the feather crest. Which means I will copy a Torchic next, but not in the sense of copying it line by line, but moreso identifying the pieces that make a Torchic a Torchic. Memory requires attention, so I will memorize things such as the number of toes or how the feather crest is attached, then there's no more guessing it wrong.

If your account is associated with a Yahoo or Hotmail account, you should change it or you may lose access in the future. Just click the yellow update email button after you log in.

2: Character design critique and discussion is welcome.

3: Keep it fairly SFW. Lewds are fine but no explicit porn.

4: This is NOT a request thread. Artist Only. No spamming OC/infodumps for multiple threads without delivering.

5: Be sure to thank Drawfrens for their hard work as soon as you can, it's just common courtesy :^)

It would then be better to state that so the negative connection doesn't get connected. This board has a weebcuck problem if you haven't noticed, so assuming the worse form a post being pro japanese lends to that notion being assumed.

that link has what, 5 examples? only one of which is from the 60s.
I'm not denying the existence of fish eye photography. But anime translated this into drawing/animation and pushed it to a stylistic extreme in ways the camera cannot.
>>
>>7442386
>that link has what, 5 examples?
so far there have been only 3 anime examples. So its even. And every scene when theres a character looking through a peephole uses this perspective

>But anime translated this into drawing/animation

They simply mimicked a camera technique that already existed, and, there were perspective techniques already that explained how to create such effects. The credit for translating the "fisheye" to drawing belongs to the perspective innovators. Everyone else borrows from them
>and pushed it to a stylistic extreme in ways the camera cannot.

Thats just forced perspetive, where you take perspective to the extreme.

Again, theres a big difference between something being used often in certain media vs something being historically attached

If anything this kind of perspective is attached historically to scenes where one character looks through a peephole. Everyone can think of a scene such as that.
>>
>>7442417
>so far there have been only 3 anime examples
heres 200 examples: https://www.zerochan.net/Fisheye+Effect?s=id

> theres a big difference between something being used often in certain media vs something being historically attached

Its been used often enough over the past 30 years of anime to become canon. Its a recognizable style.

No one look at OPs image and thinks

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.
