Rendering and painting is easily the most neglected topics despite being essential to making polished, finished pieces. Post your work, advice in the form of critiques/ paintovers. OP is my own work, please critique.
>>7211945>>7215288Seconding this
>>7211945>>7215288>>7216788Alright thanks for input, guys, appreciate it. Turns out that using a second laptop to show my reference, while convenient, will skew values quite a bit and that I shouldn't shy away from airbrush.With my last study (pic related) I feel like I'm ready to cautiously start getting into colors, as my values are getting good enough, unless you guys have some more tips?

>>7217511I think this is a step foward anon. Also be shy about including much looser paint of the bg when studying I found that it help alot with value accuracy

Holy shit, thanks senpai, also we can use this thread to post our shit as well.
I love pixel art stuff but I don't wanna post my stuff in that one dudes thread. It's his thread and I'm not gonna shit up his game. Spriting is hard at least for me. I have an easier time with backgrounds. I have the best success with drawing something on a 2000x2000 canvas or smaller. Then I convert it to monochrome and adjust the alpha so a lot of the work is done.After that I save the original drawing as a PNG then shrink it waaaay down. It's the best method I've found for keeping detail when shrinking stuff down like 90%
>>7223486You can post your stuff here

pro art tip : make more art about cats.
>>7223260Seems expensive
>>7221960this cat is very vocal about being cock blocked
>>7221854I don't know Japanese but I can get the gist of this comic
So if you see a piece doing numbers that's a drawing of raven from teen titans, your pro tip would be to draw girls with blue capes? How autistic can you be?
>>7222187drawing silly comic strips aimed at normalfags is not what most people here want. Most people here want to create beautiful art that invokes emotions, ie ILLUSTRATE. Drawing intentionally ugly doodles about le mondays has fuckall to do with the fundamentals of art. I know someone is going to respond and say "well actually her fundamentals are great because she has appeal and the forms are consistent and-" you're wrong, and you are retarded. The worst possible outcome. She isn't creating "pieces", she isn't making illustrations. So there's no reason to compare yourself to her. Another thing is times have changed, the internet landscape changed drastically in the last ten years, let alone the last 15. If you want to get more popular for drawing illustrations, look at popular illustrators that got popular recently. Sakimichan is pretty much grandfathered in, if she started now, nobody would like her art.

Why are Americans so shit at making anything that looks like Anime?
>>7216081>East vs West faggotryGo back to /co/
>>7216724>don't attempt to ape anime>PPG
>>7216081I don’t HATE anime influenced western media. If anything, things like Wakfu and Radiant are genuinely interesting experiences. I am however biased against that specific Netflix corporate korean outsourced animesque shit you could find on Netflix and the likes due to their inherent constant desire to try and be subversive despite being otherwise too safe and bland visually. Most of these cartoons feel like they’re made by people who don’t even like anime. I dunno, it’s just the feeling I get.
>>7223399Anime isn't just about wearing its wool. There are many variables that the corporate boomers just don't get, haven't gotten, and will never get. You can never get away with pic related scene in the west, for example. Western cartoons need to be moving all the time, non-stop and on steroids. It can never have moments to catch a breath or a moment in silence.I'm sure you've watched shows plenty of times where there are long pauses where you don't hear any music but just the rain or the sound of cars going by, etc. All done in a way that moves like an actual movie. A western cartoon however, especially an "anime" inspired one, doesn't behave like this. Instead, the boomers and the think tanks that think they know anime see Trigger shows and think LSD sakuga is all what anime is about. Theres way more to it than trying to ape a style and why these threads are 1) stupid and 2) annoying
>>7223484>anime does x>just ignore trigger
How the fuck do you make art look "clean"?I don't know how people do it. It seems like even the most stiff, untalented deviantart artist has an easy time coloring and polishing art, even if their base drawings are terrible. Meanwhile I just can't seem to ever make anything that has that same quality to it. What gives? How to people do it?
>>7221435Aw, man. It's always the solution you're hoping isn't the one that's the most practical, isn't it? So it's kind of like applying layers of accuracy with the lines? What about the main linework, I only have to do it once, right? I guess that wouldn't add a ton of time, it's more the part after sketches that gets me. I like the youtube vids idea, I just wish 90% of them weren't speedpaints. I can't really get as much from that.
>>7221521It's up to you. Do it until YOU are satisfied.This guy channel is full of videos showing his process. You can always slow it down with youtube player.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvzICelxz2cThis is how most artist work. The only way to speed up your process is to do it a lot until it's ingrain in you that you can skip couple of steps to get to the end result. Just learn to enjoy the process. Good luck with your art journey.
>>7218317follow through on your final lines, dont stop and start.
>>7221885What do you mean? Like don't finish it another session?
>>7218313>>7218324>just can't seem to replicate it, and when I do it takes forever. Jittery hands? Lack of skill? My software? I just can't figure it out. It's literally just, after you finished your messy sketch, you draw over it again with your pen tool and steady stroke enabled. Your drawing program should have a steady stroke feature to make it easier to draw clean lines.
drawing was a hobby to me. Until I saw a guy drawing really amateur bad crap with almost southpark anatomy. the guy was getting paid and I still can not believe it. This sketch is mine, should I try NSFW?
>>7218740Aren't you getting a bit over yourself calling that image "erotic" instead of "pornographic"?
>>7220794I don't know what you're trying to communicate here
>>7202815>the guy was getting paid and I still can not believe itlmao how long ago was that? No one is paying low tier drawfags after the AI dropped.
>>7202815Looks pretty good if somewhat unpolishedNSFW is a market always in demand and it's very fragmented so there's not much winner takes all and people always hunger for more, plus the stigma acts as a barrier to entryMain issue is general bullshit from websites and credit card companies so you gotta be prepared to deal with that, and keeping your identity private
>>7202817This is AI isn't it? Why is no one else calling it out

Can anyone put a finger on what kind of brushes ZawaZawa is using? It seems to be some kind of G-pen but it's tuned to get really nice detail and hatching

Doodling is very important as an artist, it helps you with brain storming ideas, puts away the pressure that finishing pieces sometimes entails and it's overall a fun way to relax while drawing.Post your doodles, low effort studies, early WIPs. Doesnt matter if you think they are bad or just not good enough, if you had fun while drawing it, it's a good doodle.

See what you can do in a set limit of time. Pic related don in about an hour and a half.What can you do in between 1 and 2 hours? Post results here!Get to drawin!
>>7222804Lol! I think everyone's journey is a bit different. But i think the basis of your interests is probably most people's north star. I like drawing things and concepts that appeal to me. Dinosaurs, religion, the beauty of the human form, unorthodox futuristic machinery, knights, and superheros are all things that I have enjoyed and had a facination since childhood. Even unusual dreams i have had can be a great inspiration. What about you? What interests you? What do you like to draw or 'would' like to draw?
>>7222829>What about you? What interests you? What do you like to draw or 'would' like to draw?I like figure drawing. I'm shit at it, but that's what I want to eventually be able to draw well. I'm not yet at the point where I can really draw one from imagination. I'm also really interested in drawing things you would find in the rulebook for a tabletop RPG like here https://www.thearcanelibrary.com/pages/shadowdark
>>7222840Then you're already on your way, my friend! Imagination is partially memory and recollection, so why dont you try drawing a picture that you felt particularly moved by, and recreate it from memory? Dont reference it, just draw the stuff you remember of the top of your head. There will be differences, and that will be from your imagination! As i said to the other anon in regards to this post, >>7220331 i used ideas from 2 different paintings in order to draw what i had there. It just takes practice, just have fun! And post it here too, even if you dont like it! I'll give you a critique if you wish!
1 hour study. really bad still - working on it.
>>7223626Woah, aside from the -ahem- "theme", that pic has some amazing dynamic composition. Kim jung Gi vibes.
