I feel like something looks off..but I can't figure out what :((((
>>7940815None of the anons have this thread have pointed out the actual flaw. You got a bunch of fags saying "anatomy is phoned in" but no one is actually pointing out the fucking flaw that the bitch in your pic doesnt actually have a proper cranium. You drew what would be the front part of her bangs but didnt actually draw the rest of her cranium/hair.Like what you basically did is draw her the way Yugi from Yugioh is drawn, where you draw the bangs but then get into a decorative headpiece straight away. But for Yugi's case at least its intentional, you clearly arent going for that vibe.
Like look at this basic edit. I just altered the headpiece to make it sit like a hairband and added the back of her skull, and now the head looks has proper shapeHOWEVERnow that I did that it reveals that where you drew the eyes is way too fucking high
So then what you would have to actually do next is lower the eyeline(and therefore the other features like her ear and nose) but if this is traditional drawing you fucked yourself.HOWEVER to cheat it you can just move the nose lower and cover the eyes completely until there is no trace for the easier fix
Everything else is fine. Honestly ignore the rest of these fucking anons their critiques are vague as shit. Honestly the face looked like pic related and no one on here could fucking explain that?
while the critiques here are true, it still looks good, normie looks at this and theyll think its cool. Alot of cool art has problems when you analyse it but overall its cool, the issues dont outweigh the negatives. just gotta improve is all

did this while literally falling asleep Im gonna go sleep now
Hello /ic/!I've obtained a prescription for (generic) Adderall and wanted to experiment on how it affected learning to draw. I opened this thread to document my progress and for everyone else's observation / amusement. My goal with this thread is to simply take an Adderall and draw for at least a couple hours a day and post the results. Realistically I may miss some days. The hope is to keep these threads ongoing until I'm either satisfied with the progress documented, or I crash out.Probable Questions: >Are you actually diagnosed with ADD / ADHD?Yes, ADD. I believe inattentive. Been diagnosed since 2003 but never treated long-term.>How old are you?31.>Do you work?Yes. Full time with a very emotionally draining job.>Are you on the spectrum?Undiagnosed but I'm pretty sure. High functioning if so.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
This moved from 1VP to 2VP, so I gotta fix what I was going for with that horizontal line there.
>>7936882Please use a softer lead. Your lead is making your drawings invisible and you are probably pushing too hard. I hope this doesn't offend you but your drawings are barely legible. All because of the lead you've chosen. Don't be afraid to make a mess. Use an HB or darker.
Think I figured out where to go with this. I think I want to render this one.>>7940092No offense taken, you raise a fair point that a lot of stuff is completely invisible from the thumbnails too. I'm also doing this on /ic/ entirely because people don't pull punches here really. Roughly squeezed into frame here, I like F and H a lot, and I'm kinda reflexively 'saving" the others for the full renders I'm not doing. At some point, to get through the hit, I otta use the others.Making a mess is a bit counter to how I'm wired, but you and any anon who tells me about speed is very valid in that. If I get over cleanliness that makes room to grow.
Have to go into the office so I just had time to run this with the darker pencils this up. A bit warped with that VP right there in the center, I otta look for a video that gives examples of smarter places to put them. I picked up adding the dates drawn somewhere in the picture, any ideas where where I could do that here?
your dedication is admirable
Why does this board is never discussing A.I. art?
>>7934981*on any level
>>7925279because "AI art" is not art.
I have been playing around with chatgpt lately and i've gotta say that to do research or explore concepts/ideas or hone your rhetoric, play out arguments etcetera, it is a pretty good tool.You feed it images, you can get out "results" if you're just aiming for low kitsch tier stuff like making things realistic which just copies the image and puts filters on top and texture and all that shit, but you go more into actual creative work that only reads to people, it starts to put extra stuff.Would i use it for my own shit? Fuck no.
>>7940110It's a tool in some contexts but in many others it's not. Like if a car is a tool then using AI is like calling an uber (vs driving yourself). Once the fundamentals of what you are doing are stripped from you it stops being a tool and it becomes more of servant/employee/service.
>>7925279This board is about making art, not commissioning others to make it for you. /trash/ has the commission thread, go post there.
I always thought manga looked way bettern than comics. But now I see that even manga would look bad if it weren't pure black and white or tones. Maybe if western comics dropped the colors they'd look more appealing too.
>>7937092linenotanand chiaroscuro you can only have 2
>>7940501>>7940506It only looks like shit if you have ZERO idea what you're doing. It's amazing how you two tryhards can make wrong assumptions with so much conviction.
>>7937612Came in this thread to look for this. Probably the best colored manga I read from what I can remember. I liked Forever War comic adaptation too but this is just higher quality art.
>>7940501Dumbest post I read on /ic/ lol.>>7940359Shut up, I prefer if /beg/'s suffer lol.
>>7937092Because they use dull, muddy, colors.

Cropped the dick out because i dont wanna challenge jannies grip on their sexuality
Hello! I am a current college student who works full time as a firefighter. I take online courses to try to get my degree in Illustration. Its something I've wanted for a long time, although I'm not sure what I'm going to do with this degree once its finished. Haha. Anyways, I kinda stumbled on this board and figured I'd throw out some of the drawings I've had to complete this semester, and see how you all like them.
>>7940728No problem, and I do the same. This is pretty much last forum-based site left to post art, so I feel you.
>>7940731Thank you! And youre right. Figure drawing is blah. Its just a skill showcasing and practice. And I think youre right. I really would like to draw what i want to. Its kind of been placed all on the back burner with school, work, and im starting a cross country move to work at a different fire dept. Plus getting my capt. License for 100 ton vessels. Lol. I kinda just... idk. Like doing alot of things. I tend to get bored if something isnt challenging or if it becomes monotonous. Haha.
>>7940735>>7940741Well I don't know much about tattoos but if I had to guess then you need to work on your lines, figures, portraits and whatever is popular with what people want drawn. Being able to draw from reference (portraits) and designs/patterns, tracing, and values.I just draw for myself but I guess I would call myself a illustrator rather than a artist. Idk just the logical conclusion that I wanted to draw vehicles and characters, which meant that I had to do backgrounds as well and also thumbnailing and then to not making it boring I also had to show a little story as well... Which is basically narrative illustration.I never worked professionally as a artist, but I'm just doing video game art for my own project. Which basically is characters, backgrounds, sprites, animations, scenes etc. Since I'm making a game, my art also has to be narrative since I'm also making a story etc.
>>7940749Thats cool! I wish you the best of luck on making a kick ass game!
>>7940678Solid stuff. It's pretty clear there's a gap between your observed work and your imagined work, and that's pretty common. If you goal is to draw from your head, you need to spend some time intentionally memorizing and recalling bits and pieces of anatomy, architectures, fashion, ect. so you can draw it without reference. It's a skill on it's own that I don't really see taught anywhere.You should also spend some time doing some master studies. Observation shows you the "what" of drawing; master studies show you the "how." You'll learn more about mark making and style from doing studies of works from artists you like than you will from life drawing.>>7940735>They had courses that required kilns and such. And I have no access or time for that.I don't know where you live, but there's a non-zero chance that there's a local pottery place you could go to for this sort of stuff. Throwing is actually a lot of fun.
Tip:the best reference you can find of the human body...It's yourself
>>7940754Okay but I only draw women and I'm not a women so how do I draw titties?
>>7940755use the liquified option on your chest and hips and add 2 spheres on your pecs
>>7940755bags of sand
>>7940754Very true. I personally don’t really draw myself that much but it’s something I want to do more, especially to learn the parts of the body that maybe an image can’t capture
ITT: Post your work and your socials
>>7938966I wanted to connect with other artistes doe, i was not using my hustle account :(

https://x.com/SolidusFragdont have much, it's a new account but I'm hoping to meet new art buddies
>>7937498I would kill myself if I drew like you.

>>7939385>>7939623great work, I love seeing couple drawings
Finished my mini-manga that is basically a personal thing I just wanted to see if I could finish.https://imgur.com/a/yLi7CjS>>7936555Based comic and based tripsIn terms of crit/commentary, I can't say I have any overt crit, but I enjoyed the expressions/dialogue overall. Excited for the next part!!!>>7937923YOWZAS WHAT A COOL SHARK GUY-- and stellar improvement!!!>>7937999Also based trips, but, more relevantly, you have a very cute style. Hope to see more of your drawings!!!>>7939385Nice work and hope to see more of your couple!!!
>>7938492Lovely to see you here! >>7939385I dig this shading method>>7940059Love the expressions! nice work finishing it
>>7938503>>7940309Thank you, this thread is cute>>7940059I feel like I've missed parts but the ending of this mini-manga is darling. =:] Thank you!
>yea dude just draw and you'll improve lmao
>>7929842can't improve perfection
>>7929842> Artist did not take the box exercises seriously> the consequences of not drawing boxes
>look at my old art from years ago>way better lines>way better forms>higher variety of subjects and angles>more interesting colors>I'd never have the patience to draw these pictures now
>>7936599This is the most based thing about him too. Whether you like it or not, he's an artist who's fully realized his vision on his own terms. The vast majority of artists will never experience this nirvana.
>>7940414this is not true, he traces art all the time (or at least used to) so clearly his own vision is actually someone else's art style
Hello 4channers, im still new here. If you can, give some advice towards my art, please. Since im not from 'merica, i want to sell comissions for life i guess.What can i do to improve my artstyle/art in general?(FYI, i've never gone to art school, nor i've been drawing for years. Its been less than a year since i've started drawing).Thank you people for your future comments, genuinely thank you :)(i just understood that i cant necesserly post more than 1 picture, if you're intrested, i can post more later)
>>7939146I absolutely love it when lvl 2.5 /beg/s do complete infographics on lvl 1.0 /beg/'s workThis is the best fucking board everThe absolute best is this infographic being posted to 13 likes, topsThe cherry on top would be if it was made by a girl, this is step one of being a turbothot and realizing she has to post face/cleavage if she wants people to listen to herI just love this, I love everything about this threadI love this board
>>7939146Damn, where have you been on my art journey. Do you have any advice for proportioning things better and making forms feel more three dimensional? Any exercises or anything like that?
>>7940507Different anon but here's what worked for me in terms of nailing proportions and making forms feel more 3D:>gesture studies>blind contours>grind more forms >take a reference and break it down into shapes and forms>active recall (cognitive/memory drawing)
>>7940653What's blind contours? And is active recall that exercise where you look at a reference for a while and then try to draw it from memory? I haven't tried that yet. Thanks.
>>7940719Blind contours are when you focus ONLY on the reference/subject without looking at your paper. When you study with blind contours and active recall and gesture studies and breaking down references, you're doing effective meaningful study since this whole process is building an inner visual memory of what you're seeing and allowing you to pull it out into reality after the fact.

>>7935106it's disrespectful towards the effort of the artists here to not even follow the collage tradition.And if you are too sane to care for this, you may keep it to yourself and let us insane people have some fun.
>>7940557Originally there were no collages. Just one artwork from the previous thread with a text overlay saying /sex/ or /porn/.You are a newfag trying to tell others what 4chan tradition is. Fuck off.
>>7932181I think from the camera angle you should be able to see a little bit of her cunny... Otherwise I like it a lot. Nice softness to it, I could never do soft renders.
>>7940716nta but getting used to using opacity pressure and airbrush with or without lasso tool really helps
For stupid questions and questions that don't deserve their own thread.Post here if you don't expect your thread to reach 100+ replies.Previous thread: >>7884923
Actually fuck it, I'll fully repost.---I need a little bit of help. (and it's a bit of a stupid question.)So there's an artist I follow, and I saw that they animated their stills with the new animation features from Clip Studio Paint.https://catbox.moe/c/271utjIt looks like you can do actual puppet animations on CSP, but as someone who's a totaI noob at CSP, i don't have a single fucking clue on how to replicate this.I did reached to the artist about this, but they couldn't share the .clip file for personal reasons and, no offense to the artist, they're absolutely terrible on responding; so a demonstration was out of the question.Can anyone figure out how they did this within program? I tried searching for a fresh tutorial YouTube and it's just stuff from 1 to 5 years ago, fucking worthless.
I want to make 4K art using a monitor with a 1366 x 768 screen.how viable is this
Getting back into drawing from a long hiatus. I'm doing sketches of tree roots like Feng Zhu recommends. I'm trying to find some references and I realized Pinterest has sadly become useless with AI, also their interface is more hostile than I remember. Any good alternatives? So far I came across this site:https://pixabay.com/images/search/tree%20roots/
I am 38 years old with AuDHD, can I still learn to draw?
>>7940666depends on the power of your hyper fixation
