>>6434283excellent way to tackle a challenging angle for the head, really nice stuff should be in an old MAD issue>>6434135You really captured his abhorrent facial hairThis is an MS Paint + mouse sketch I did for an anon who was posting a cartoon pitch a while ago, kind of a Jhonen Vasquez type beat
>>6434426Looks good.
>>6434409brian? no>>6434426thanks anon
draw thread lets go nerds
>>6436278lovely hands
>>6436397thank yous
cool
>>6436278in love with your hands
>>6436397>>6437173lol didn't even realize someone already said this

>>6438098:DThat is all.
>>6440250>>6438340>>6436278>>6436409These are dope dude, I love simple expressive linework like this..
I finished my Rats today
>>6440558Noice. Love your lines.
>>6440643Thanks mann, do you think it'd be better cut out and mounted on a black background? Or should I leave it as is?
>>6440558u and the cat guy can be art rivals
>>6434135Why do I want to worship the ultra wealthy when that's who has been lowering the standards of Americans the entire time?And for that reason I'm out
Why do I want to worship the ultra wealthy when all they've done is lowered the standard of life for Americans ever since they have been given more access to creating laws and government?And for that reason, I'm out
>>6440808I think it would look good either way. The simplicity of the square with the blank background looks neat. A darker background would also look nice since it makes the white rats really pop out against it. Personally, I prefer the darker background.
>>6433586I've been working on this dumb thing for like over a year now.I feel like I can kinda sorta see the finish line but it's still a ways out
>>6440959What's your goal?
yea
>>6441022Just wanted to make a longer form narrative. I've thought about making comic/animatics for years and this is a test for how long it could take. Turns out it takes WAY LONGER than I thought it would.
>>6440852Wow, thank you so much for the edit that's incredibly helpful. Giving me a lot to consider.>>6440818I don't make rats often enough, that guy's something else with his cats.
Art programs are gay.
The horse is a little fucked.
2 days of bullshitery, no shadows.
>>6440847>Why do I want to worship the ultra wealthyYou have to be brain-dead to believe this, everything that exists in society is a product if greedy rich people
>>6441426I quite actually enjoy its messy look
>>6441354yeah you need to cut back about 60% of the complexity of these scenes. Take a look through blacksad sometime it's like almost all just close up shots of characters, the occasional wide shot to set the scene, and maybe a full page city drawing with characters twice a comic. You're doing a full page city shot every damn panel bro. I respect the effort but you're doing a Simon Stalenhag illustration for every panel
Imagine Sisyphus happy in his sufferings.
>>6436278Great caricature, solid all around.I'm no good at this type of shit so I have no advice
>>6436409It amazes me that if you were to shave this rat's head he'd look exactly like Ethan Klein. This is great work, the expression especially. >>6438340This one too, the vague asymmetry is really appealing.>>6443038>>6441426>>6441424The sketch quality adds a lot to these, I'd love to see a short story illustrated in this style.
>>6433586I've been doodling in MS Paint for the past few days, here's one of the doodle pages I've been working on. Initially it was just a request of Riven from LOL but I started drawing random shit around her
>>6433586Man... It's been years and I'm still scared of posting on /draw/, maybe I hold it to a too big of a standard; it's true that the avarage was better a few years back, but still
Good night ic.
>>6444020>>6444064contefag continues to be one of the the post kino posters on this board
>>6444020Sick drawing. I should draw more Kane.
>>6444024Just do it man who gives a fuck. Aside from the shitpost threads this board is way better now in terms of engagement and critique.
>>6440250congrats anon, your work is good enough to give me a crisis at 1 AM in all seriousness, I wanted to ask how you went about studying your stylistic influences, assuming that you did. did you just copy from artists you liked until you started to understand and build upon it? your work seriously stands out
>>6444081HOLY FUCK

I've always been enamored by illustrations that look like this, but I can't think of how to describe them aside from messy sketches -- in a good way. WarwickJC does stuff similar to this and I wish I could draw like him, and you as well. Great work!
>>6444501What's wrong with my mspaint art desu?
>>6434283Masterful
>>6444125 >>6444887 thanks anons idk what to call style i have no imagination but i can capture people and shapes well enough. influences i love jason latour, thomas fluharty jamie hewlett mike mignola, i love dan panosian, tons of influences. too many desu. i draw small so i can draw lots of stuff quickly but it is also a crutch as i fall apart on anything too complex. been sketching fairly religiously my whole life 30s so i've developed a few tricks under my sleeves. just keep drawing. detail detail detail. i do not seek to do it professionally so i have no advice for that, gl fren
>>6444974For me, it awakens a feeling of uncanny from 2013, might be just me.
Good morning /ic/.
Are you the same dude who drew this?I love this use of texture. Is there a specific process to this or is it just the grit of analog drawing that's been digitized properly?
>>6445154ha wow yes. nothing fancy its just smudging from the graphite on paper. i use magic wand tool in photoshop to select the linework (non-contiguous), then select>modify>expand selection by 1 or 2 and fill, blend layer etc. the excessive dotting i dont care for but those can be cleaned up and just be more precise with smudging u know
>>6445154is this conner vs dustin or vs khabib ?
>>6440959How did you get your references?
>>6445198It's mostly made up though a few shots are basically copies of nature photos and I referenced the boat. You just have to do lots of research. It's really boring and it's the worst part of this whole project.
>>6445191Funny, I saved both of these when op posted them originally.>>6445171What do you use the fill and blend tools for? I imagined it was to erase the white bg of the paper, but I might be misunderstanding.
>>6445632o i just mean i'll enhance the lineart with separate layers like this to give it some pop, usually just grey but colors sometimes
2022 dump
>>6445171If you weren't already aware, you can colorize your lineart without affecting the lineart itself by setting your lineart's blending mode to "multiply" and then adding color/tones in layers underneath it.

been working on some stuff for a potential comic
>>6461433I'd like to submit it to Dark Horse or some other creator-owned publishing company once I finish, but Dark Horse is my first choice just because I love Hellboy and adore Mignola's work
>>6461437Non-comic stuff is mostly caricature or fun brainless stuff
>>6444887You could probably call that style just caricatures, that's what they essentially are, except its just in more of a rough form

>>6463206>>6463828can you give me some tips on how to get an industry job? What does a good portfolio look like?
>>6463828>Blog?@StirfryGuyArt on twitter. Haven’t posted anything yet though. I’m building up a backlog. Thank you anon.
>>6463206nice one julian
verrry nice threadd great success
Afternoon sketch. The lost track of time.
>>6464179Blog?
last sketch. maybe agi can use it for what ever.
>>6463841I got in the industry by founding my own gaming company with colleagues and being employed there with an artist role. So not really your typical way of getting into the industry, but definitely one with the brightest future I would say. Would recommend over chasing jobs and clients your whole career.But if you want to get into the industry, don't send the same portfolio to dozens of clients. Tailor it to their needs, show them that you want to do the "dirty" jobs as well. For example, if you want to do concept art, don't just put up flashy images of soldiers (they got enough people who want to do that) but rather lots of concepts for mundane objects that will fill their game world. But really, it depends on what kind of industry you want to get into
>>6463206Started a new thing
>>6464465interesting. any speculation behind the meaning of this image?
>>6464485No, not really. I just felt like making something with a lot of clouds, daylight setting I'm not using much and just in general painting something bigger again.
>>6464465You have such a good eye for color in these. Do you work with a color reference or just put them down as you go?
It's starting to make sense. 15 years blind. The powers of this world are turning. Negative and positive are flipping.
Huge power shift incoming.
Update. think it's finished. Have a goodnight all. God bless.
Some shit doodles, what does /ic/ think?
>>6466104Moar shit doodles
>>6466109Don't shit on me too much for the second one it was rushed and I was bored
>>6465565Both, I use quite a bit of references but in the end do more tweaking in Photoshop with Color Balance, Color Lookup, Layer Modes, etc until it starts to click.>>6466061Dude, you seem to start out so great with your environment art but then drop the ball calling it finished.They could be so much better if you kept working on these for 10+ hours more.
>>6466104I think they're shit doodles
>>6466130Rate them best to worst, and specify why they're shit
I'm trying to signify/exaggerate parts of the body without it looking too dumb. feedback or suggestions would be appreciated.
>>6466061I think that you have a lot of good things going on.The biggest issue i see is the perspective is all over the place. The forground seems to be seen from above but the backround is not following this. And there are hardly any lines who seem to follow the same vanishing points.Your values and lightning don't really make sense either. Which lessens the impact your image could have.I tried to give it a shot too. With an different composition.
>>6466223I think it depends on how cartoony you want to go, but I think keeping all the parts in relatively close proportion is the key. I'm also trying out something like that. Stretching proportions while also trying to maintain believability or at least not look stupid. Did a twelve head tall figure and I think that's about my limit for uncanniness, at least for how /beg/ I am.
>>6466241looks pretty good
spiky
>>6467611please design your turd well before rendering it
>>6467191Thanks man :)
>>6466126thanks. i'm going to try and be more patient.>>6466239incredible redline. if i can throw out concepts and see people make them better. whew thats amazing
this probably has big issues too. any good books for perspective?

I draw last night before sleepytime
>>6466241you made her look like a tranny, not bad, but stylistcally ugly, and you completelly gave uo on the right arm
>>6466223Go crazy, it will only get better
>>6469535it's not too bad, some jankiness, but it's a hard perspective to draw. I like the atmospheric fog but I'd like just a little definition on the background right, like really tiny bit more. maybe some vehicles?I think the best bet is to study and copy scifi genre masters. Adnrée Wallin has some cool perspective stuff to study.
>>6469649>>6469701thanks
>>6469754Great work. Dark, but it's good. Uses a lot of photo layering, matte painting. I'd have to go out and take photos of my own images.As soon as photos are introduced, it really turns the image, cartoonish into something cinematic.
>>6469679>you made her look like a trannyDamn, was it the shoulders? I was trying for bizarre, but not unfeminine, like a Boldini painting.

>>6475409>>6475419
>>6445171>>6445632I adore this kind of stylization, how do you even do the dots shading?>>6466241>>6470238You did it wrong with the deltoids, in your reference they are almost in the same line of the arm, but you gave them too much volume, remember that with females you have to be autistically conscious of your strokes. You gave the supinator too much mass, contrary to the reference, which is pretty slim. Also, what makes Boldini bizarre is his uncanny realism with his painting strokes, not the human figure itself.>>6466223Rule of thumb, exaggerate what you personally find appealing, but have enough taste to not overdo it to the point that it becomes un-appealing.
>>6475419>>6475427>>6475409I really like your simple style, you should apply that to the fur aswell.
>>6475859Thanks anon! I agree, I tried to do it in a more simplified way but I didn't get a good result.
>>6475785>with females you have to be autistically conscious of your strokesYeah, I always struggle with this on female figures, very difficult to indicate those muscles without overdoing it, when I under do it they just come out as noodle arms. More study and practice. Thanks for the detailed feedback.

WIP for anime called Albegas
>>6483959only soul in the entire thread
>>6433586Hey /draw/, I was thinking about output, I know how to study and all (input), but what's a good mentallity when you are outputting things off your head as a practice, I mean when you are drawing purely from imagination, does your brain just turn off and you start moving your arms or do you have certain goals to archieve for example "i should draw legs in these angles" and so, if that makes any sense...
>>6484636once you start connecting synabsis and building neural pathways your hands will just draw by themselves.
>>6475427>>6475419>>6475409My liege. I would like to see more of your work if you have a gallery
>>6482131>>6483959looks good>>6484636>does your brain just turn off and you start moving your arms or do you have certain goals to archieve for example "i should draw legs in these angles"little bit of both but mostly the latter for me. i use the former when i don't know what to dar but want to draw by just drawing random lines and seeing where it goes

>>6491044thank you for the motivation mr dubs, i will keep at it!
What do you guys think of my illustration? Still working on my blending technique but I’m somewhat satisfied
>>6490999You're kinda missing the flow in those mountains, like how those dark shapes higher up flow and tighten into small crevasses.
>>6491092oh yeah, i see it now. it was all pretty overwhelming while i sat there working on it.
>>6491069looks cool to me. some perspective issues are present, like that right earpiece, but they dont distract too much.
>>6491099Yeah the ear pieces were giving me trouble. I decided to just say fuck it on them. The photo kinda skews the perspective but yeah it is a bit off. Thanks for your input friend

>>6440845Elon Musk isn't even powerful. You retards seem to not understand how central banks and the vlue of money works. Elon Musk is just one of the top players in this system. It doesn't mean he is the most powerful when people that control this system exists who are much more powerful than him.

>>6492196>slow downthat would require me to be patient>be more analyticalthat would require me to be smart>use referencei already did :_:(memes aside thanks for the advice)
>>6491885the struggle continues. i think im capturing the general impression with these last two, but not really getting the characteristic details right.>>6492305i find music helps with patience. it keeps my thoughts from racing and wanting to do other stuff.
>>6492546>but not really getting the characteristic details right.or even attempting them at all, honestly. its where I so easily get overwhelmed
>>6440558really like this but I prefer >>6440852>>6436278excellent lines and energy -- I wish you would scan your art though so it's even cleaner>>6492546I would add more hard edges for shadows and highlights. I don't think impressionism and digital painting often work well together
>>6492546did one from imagination, focusing on just the one area of interest and its characteristic details, using raking dry brush strokes to represent the striations one might see from sediments in the rock. the whole thing feels off somehow, but without reference to look at i'm unsure how. anyway, starting to feel like i'm spamming the thread, so i'll stop here.>>6493762wasn't trying for an impressionistic result necessarily, i was just hesitant with the detailing.
>>6493866confidence is key when making art. if you're hesitant with your forms you'll end up with hard to read pictures. when you choose a focal point in the picture, really focus on making the forms there clear, don't be afraid to use ambient occlusion to emphasise the form. also work on your flow, even if your study doesn't have a clear flow of focus, make it up in your digital painting.>>6493762to call hesitancy impressionism is kind of a miss, impressionist masters were very intentional and confident in their painting. you can do it digitally too if your process and post-process is done well
>>6493954the scale feels unclear. maybe adding a touch more detail in the foreground environment would help -- something recognizable so we can compare it against the tree in the background and get a better sense of the scale. adding more of the birds at various distances would help too.>also work on your flow, even if your study doesn't have a clear flow of focus, make it up in your digital painting.im not familiar with the concept of flow. does it mean guiding the eye toward the focal point or something?
>>6469701you seems to be pretty naturally good at color theory and your linework is solidwork on perspective and gesture drawing, i can see that you are working through anatomy- keep going
>>6494137>im not familiar with the concept of flow. does it mean guiding the eye toward the focal point or something?Exactly this, fabricate lines and forms even if you need to.>the scale feels unclear.Intentional, but thank you for the feedback!
>>6433586a cool discordhttps://discord.gg/NW2YyTn5
>>6492047this is my feedback, you can't stop me anyway so stop cryinggangster means good >>6494964this discord is chill
>>6489927Fuck you, you're meh
>>6495039as a paintover this might be useless as it changes too much of the original mood, but maybe this can help give you some ideas for how to design your lighting in order to create areas of interest in future paintings.group your values, emphasize your focal point, and remember to include common light effects you'd see in nature like reflected lights, atmospheric perspective, ambient light affecting the colors in shadow.
>>6495605NOW THIS IS ABOUT RESPECT !!EXTREMELY GANGSTER !I LOVE EVERY PART OF IT!NO idea how to achieve this except that I need to use textured brushes a lot more.And that I need to have the values more coherent instead of it having it look like a weird zebra-stripe homophobe pattern, less spread more group I get it.I don't really know how to do a focal point thing though.This is the ultimate thrill though very gangster big respect!

>>6495605really good fix. can you show more of your art?
>>6495840You don't need a texture brush, just knoweledge how to direct focus with value. Learn to paint without texture brushes first so they'll be a convenience and not a necessity for you.
>>6495840create a focal point through contrast in values, colors, shapes, detail levels and through how you arrange the elements on the canvas. easiest way to learn that stuff is to study paintings and well-shot movies.>>6495942this one >>6489595 and the replies are mine :)

>>6498211this one is cool. other two are a touch too simple. theyve got the beginnings of a mood, but its not enough
>>6498225haha this retard talks like an expert
>>6440558i remember your rats from another thread,cool>>6438340great expression>>6473170cutejust finished this one, my gf is going to make some postcards with it for her brand
>>6498863very nice. the way you designed the shape around the eye feels off, but i couldnt say how to improve it.
>>6498863also i think you made the wrong choice with that hard, clean shape for the foreground leg. in an attempt to make it simple and unobtrusive you called attention to it.
>>6497169i think your girlfriend is very cute anon. i hope you dont mind the paintover.
>>6499704I think your right about the leg, thanks anon
