Had some free time this afternoon so I drew this as a followup to something I posted here last week. How did I do as far as the head/face goes? By this point in my life I feel like I sort of know what I'm going for when drawing a woman's body but the head/face area is usually where I struggle.
>>7200101start with a circle and work on proportion, one eyes is much bigger then the other, eye lashes dont look like eyelashes you need pointed edges to it.work on line confidencewip of mine
>>7200080how did you learn to paint these background/concept things? did you study concept art?
I failed today. And got swayed to play dota 2. Managed to uninstall. At least I was able to draw little something. How do you like it?
Will Pawell post today.. ?
I’m still not drawing because I was deemed NGMI so there’s no point to trying. If I don’t improve by October I will kill myself.
>>7200144more gains for me, thanks
which pose looks more appealing and why?I kinda decided but I want other perspectives.
>>7200101You're at the first step towards becoming a great artist. Look to a an artist you admire and copy what they do, you will quickly gain an eye for how they create images. Also look for basic anatomy and construction, even anime artists reference this for their stuff. You have the passion keep it up anon
>>72001511 because it will make you draw the whole body and not hide the hands or anything.
>>7200150Where will your gains come from after I’m DEAD?
>>7200155my next victim
>>7200156You’re a monster!

Foot study
>>7200056Frustrated because I'm checking out the sticky and he's showing us how to draw shapes in this youtube video, how to block things out using cylinders, boxes, etc. But he doesn't really, he says things like "okay so then figure out where the ellipses going". That's very difficult for me, he doesn't really explain how you're supposed to do it, just tells you to do it.Maybe it's silly but are there resources for people who are just beginning as well?
>>7200272more like jackrabbit jizz
can someone help me breakdown crossed legs into tubes?
>>7200268nanachi
>>7200080>>7200082Thanks for that useful advice anons
>>7200330Calm down with the sloppa my brodah
>>7200337I don't know what that means
>>7200178Really nice hand there!I don't think you can change it, but I would check on that hat, it doesn't seem right
>>7200004he posted here last i saw, >>7192895he's not that active.
I did not draw anything, I just scrolled social media on my phone.
wip horror comic
>>7200433why's that?
>>7200313take the boxpill
Can anyone help my face? Im trying for a pseudo anime style so obviously not realistic, does this look okPlease don't tell me it's the hair because I really like this hair
>>7200466I don't mean this to be rude, but it is a bit blunt: I wouldn't advise you worrying about your style when, clearly, what you're gonna produce is of poor quality. if you like anime, then focus on anime I suppose, but I would concern myself with a more conventionally appealing style first, so you have a solid reference point to reach. then when you get however close you desire, you can move on to something more stylized that is of some quality.
>>7200465I see. Problem is I cannot do step one, draw those boxes and those other 3D shapes. My mind is not really used to visualizing in 3D I guess, because everything comes out wonky. Do you have resources for this? Once I can get that down then I can follow the rest of the guide you've posted.
>>7200123That's not his nigga. It's some guy named ZhongYuan on artstation so prolly study him or look up thumbnail sketches on pinterest.
>>7197922Update, thoughts?
>>7200473See like I'm trying to read this book thinking it will teach me. He says all I need to do is know how to draw one circle. But then he says uhhh yeah just like, eye it and divide it up. But I don't know how he does it? "Use your eye" but my eye isn't working!
>>7200482>>7200473You might be low iq therefore ngmi, sorry for the news.
>>7200484I AM gonna make it, it's a matter of practice and learning, there's no such thing as somebody who can never draw. I just don't know what first step to take :(
This took me like 3 hours, and I felt this could be done half of the time.>>7200112 Not bad, I like it. But the legs and head feel a bit off.>>7200283 Nice as always. But where are the bodies, huh? Or at least the hands or a more dynamic expression, angle? This style could really explode with more dynamic expressions or facial angles (without learning so much about figure body drawing).
>>7200491This is what I'm talking about.
>>7200480really cute
I drew heian era Sukuna. Any critiques? This is an objectively good drawing right?
>>7200492post in HQ next time nigger
>>7200466
I'm planning to make a comic. How to level up my style from this to acceptable /int/ level?
>>7200503PERFECT
>>7200473others will insult you but they can't draw boxes themselves (they change a lot depending on the perspective and the "lens" you're using), check the Krenz course, there are 16 boxes you need to learn, the others you can learn them laterlearn these boxes and you are ready to goI understand you, people say "Just draw a box" but first you have to understand perspective, there's so much distortion when you change the angle just a little bit, sometimes you can eyeball it, but not always, sometimes you have to know how to rotate (almost) perfectly
>>7200473 >>7200535sorry I meant this part, these are the 16 boxes you need to learn, and you can use them for construction
>>7200535>>7200536His course practice sheets have been translated.>inb4 that one perma/beg/ faggot cries about drawing boxes being a beg trap
>>7200539thanks. got anything else you want to share?
>>7200542Sure, I can post the rest.
>>7200544based
>>7200480I don't know if this is right or not so feel free to disregard just a few things with the face looked off so I I tried to draw it myself
>>7200560Yours really looks like the first version of the eye that I drew, I should change it back again 'cause the new one kinda bugged me off. Thank uuu
I think I made poor choices in shading and rendering colors. My head was on the Rabbit Clan's colors.If you were to improve this, what would you do?I am just asking for future improvements.Sorry for the repeat. I realized I posted in a dead thread.
>>7200586Blog?
would you read a comic that has this art style?
>>7200056took a break from art for a while, only did line drawing and cartoon stuff before. ill be trying to teach myself color soon, will update with those. any advice or ways i could improve? these are copied from photo references, my first tries at digital painting
>>7200598Yes, but it should be themed around some Lovecraftian horror story.
>>7200498Bump
>>7200300youre drawing the ball of the heel a little small, and the middle section of the feet as a little too long. middle is the best drawing because its missing the slightly wonky proportions of the others>>7200449>>7200598you said its a horror, so yeah this fits it really well. this style calls to mind a really gritty war story to me, something with filthy trenches in ww2 or something. id totally read it. >>7200498this is objectively pretty good yeah. the fabric folds on the pants could use work but otherwise i i cant find anything wrong with it
>>7200480a few suggestions
>>7200593why are you trying to accomplish
Lovecraft's cat
>>7200480I feel like the shape of the mouth isn't quite right given the perspective?And also what >>7200613 said
>>7200151What is the character's personality? Some of these make them come off very differently.
>>7200620What?
Dammit, bumped the old thread because I didn't update it>>7199875>>7199878Dang, a twofer. Thanks a lot doods, Head was all fucked up too, I still always want to push the face in the wrong spot, really gotta just grind asaros
>>7200593Check the bottom of the pic. That is my bluesky tag.
>think I didn't improve at all>stumble upon my old piece put in some random folder>it's fucking horribleI did indeed improve
>>7200485>there's no such thing as somebody who can never draw.Explain chris chan
2hr study of another xitter artist.
>>7200776you don't have the artist's super special paid brushes tho
>>7200776study =/= copy
>>7200781nuh-uh he wrote over it with red lines, that makes it a study
>>7200776it is ultimately your choice how you should approach studies at this point, but perhaps consider whether worrying more about proportions before color/rendering would be more productive. not that you can't do both, and maybe you do work on observational skills/proportions more than rendering, but if not, it might be a better use of your time.
>>7200780>gotta have that super special brush made by a westoid from deviantartDelusional>>7200781>can’t tell a study from a master copyYou don’t even draw.
>>7200330do you want us to hold your hand through the entire process?The entire point of drawing/painting is problem solving and if that is too difficult for you go watch some speedpaint shit on youtube
>>7200788>immediately defensiveGotta control that pride, you sound 14.
Would this be considered mid-beg? What should I focus on to achieve a more finished look?
Here's some stuff I drew when I first started in February https://imgur.com/a/jAuRRMgAnd here's a page I drew last night, it's mostly doodles and sketches.https://files.catbox.moe/9kztwd.pngIs this a good improvement?
>want to be a trad artist who sketches outside>my ADHD/chaotic version of Brent Eviston's sketching process is more suited for digital because of how effortless redrawing and reiteration is while erasing on paper makes mess sooner or later>my trad sketches end up being overly simplified because otherwise it become too busy. End up using pen because at least I get nice dark lines for scanningGod damn it
>>7196983Drawing this for a commission. Can I get critique for the background? Character is not finished
did some corrections based on some feedback and 'finished' this. for a no reference drawing I like it, but I need more bridgman
>>7200056lip warmups before studying figures
>>7200790Your shitposting could be better if you drew some reaction image to go with it, lad.
>>7200789Good to know that >painting>landscapeWere the best advices I could receive here.
just a shite drawing for fun>>7200660like>>7200812I dont know but that is very impressive>>7200776look man Im shite but hear me out you practiced rendering, okay sure, but you neglected the accuracy of copying of form as if you could just do some cool effects and have some finished work (not the entire drawing but many places). I think the two are inseperable, we can see that on the arm that holds the object, the ref looks like actual folder fabric, whereas in some places yours look like stained fabric. I understand its very time consuming but the difference is yuge
I was gonna draw but I hurt my finger (smashed it against furniture when I was reenacting scenes from my favorite shonen manga) guess no drawing for me just yet!
>>7200910 (Me)>>7200776 (You)And yeah I know my drawing basically shits on everything Ive written down but Im jst tired rn thats why is low effort
>>7200634I want to draw Marisa from Touhou
>>7200776Take a look at these pictures. Can you answer why the fabric on the right looks so stiff in comparison to the left? Especially the neck of the shirt
This is why you should never post side-by-side study with original. Crabs will immediately feel emboldened to point out every minor inaccuracy.
>>7200924Most retards here dont even know what they are talking about
>>7200629Is this nami doing a forced chopper cosplay
>>7200744Chris Chan doesn't know how to learn, which means all the practice he does is just reinforcing and being satisfied with poor drawing. That's why I'm asking for resources to learn where to draw the lines on the spheres. I can keep drawing them, but it will all look wonky and doesn't get better.I could also bruteforce it, trial and error, which I highly doubt Chris does. He doesn't have the eye or mind to criticize his work and find ways to improve it. But why would I bruteforce when I can instead ask for a resource to help this gap in my knowledge?
>>7200938https://online-courses.club/linear-perspective-master-course-by-erik-olson-level-1-3-as-perspective-1-21/Here you go. It's exact geometry. So if you stick to it, practice it, you should understand what is happening underneath (it's all exact math). Took me whole summer. (I am dumb too.)
Why does taking art video lessons suck the fun out of everything for me. Should I be drawing to enjoy, I try to learn new things but i just get frustrated and too upset to draw anything. and i end up ripping a page into shreds.
>>7200958Expectations are too high. Brains fears failure. Failure bad. Human dies. Brain does not know it's drawing. Brain protects. Ook ook. Just ignore. Human wise. Human improves by watching.
>>7200812thats /int/ to /exp/Get out of hear ya shmuck!
>>7200958Isn't there like some rule that the blah blah of learning something new will suck. But then it will click and be fun? That's just the human experience man, if you want to be good at something you have to suck first.
>>7200915>>7200910Ok thx I will take your advice unlike the rest of the crabs here. Maybe next time I wil trace the form since I just like eyeballing my lines. I am absolutely horrible at rendering and I've done enough hampton shit in isolation that I need to practice painting now otherwise I will always be stuck in the sketch phase of everything I do. Pic rel is when I started 4 years ago. Don't shit on yourself because you will gradually get better.
this is kicking my ass
>>7201009You are wasting your time. This is perspective. You need more guidelines.
for a comm on /a/ waifu drawthread
>>7200812Low INT/ That's the /ic/ scale. To me it looks great.
>>7201032i want a refund
>>7200869Looks great anon. Everything reads well. The only issue may be that you are using a thick line work for the character in contrast with the soft brush rendering of the background. That's fine though. If you usually do characters with linework like that, keep it that way. Go for the safe path.
How can I grow out of being a NGMI permabeg? I don’t want to draw to do it, though.
>>7201046I got an idea
>>7200874Look much more nicer now anon. Well done. I think you should study feet, those feet looks too narrow in certain points. You don't have to draw every finger when studying feet, just block the basic shape.
>>7201047What drugs was that guy on? Maybe they can give me autism and ADHD, too!
>>7201042The character will definitely look a bit less "artsy", but I'll draw over the linework at the end to reduce the thickness of the linework a bit. It really is a bit too thick.
>>7201030like?
>>7200268Get some Vibi in your life
>>7201062I already linked an online course.
>>7201081yes you linked your site to shill premiums for a terrible file host
pls no bullyi am a absolute begginer but i love drawinghow do i go from here
>>7201111pick a fundie, work on it for a few months, try to gain a basic understanding, move on to another fundie, work on it for a few months, try to gain a basic understanding, repeat.
>>7201119ok but what fundieplz help
>>7201122take your pick. if you want resources about a specific one, just ask or look them up elsewhere.
wtf am i supposed to do if im still shit at observating? When should someone move to construction?
>>7201111keys to drawing
what is a good starting resource on how to draw the torso/neck? at the moment i'm just trying to learn from videos and copying some references.
>>7201146you don't have to do anything and can practice any fundie as you desire. obvious fundamentals compliment each other, and some more than others, but if you're struggling with one all you can do is practice more, practice more intently, ask and look around to see if you can improve your specific study methods and general drawing techniques, and ask for critiques on your studies.
Can someone tell me what went wrong with this? I was trying to draw that one guy from dungeon meshi and this was the outcome.
>>7200074your artstyle is pretty and reminds me of shoujou mangas
>>7201170if you could post the ref, that would be useful. that said, an obvious problem is a lack of effort all around. this couldn't have taken you even 30 minutes to do. not that you have to make every drawing 30+ minutes, but obviously the more time you have the more you can do with a drawing; and depending on your level, you can maximize or minimize that time. I don't mean to be rude, truly, but with drawings like this a better question is often not "what went wrong?" but "what went right?", to which the best thing that can be said is perhaps that it looks like an anthropomorphic figure, which presumably the character actually is.
>>7200546>>7200544>>7200539>>7200536>>7200535is this just explaining perspective in an overcomplicated way?
>>7201173>if you could post the ref, that would be usefulWell, I didn't really use a single ref, I admit. Google the character, and the first 4 images are basically what I used. The character is Laios from Dungeon Meshi, someone requested it.That's correct, it did not take me much time, but I feel like I should be able to do better? For reference, I also drew this, with slightly more time but still under 30 minutes, while with this one i had a feeling from the start it would not go wellThese drawings are also referenced.And don't worry, you're not rude at all. I am not upset by what you said.
>>7201176It isn't complicated. If you want complicated go watch Erik Olsons perspective course.
>>7201179he's not complicated either, he's just long. but his lessons build up from the last so its not like he's just adding filler
>>7201177>I feel like I should be able to do better?regardless of your level, it's only natural that some of your drawings are going to be better than others - even if you have roughly the same amount of time and similarly use references. in short, don't expect to draw at the same quality - however great or small that is - with every drawing you make. as someone else said to another anon, I would recommend you to simply work on your general fundamental skills more. observation and perspective are the most "fundamental" of fundamentals, as all drawings necessarily include them, so perhaps work on those more immediately you like, but really how you should go about it is up to you at the end of the day.
critique?
>>7201178nice. would love to see a bit more effort on the hand, though.
>>7200131i like your linesas constructive criticism, i would look at knee references for the anatomy and for how other artists describe knees using lines
>>7201190widen the value range, not enough contrast, its hard to read.
>>7199957
>>7201048thanks man. still on hands on bridgman, but don't worry, I won't skip feet
>>7201220you should look up resources on seeing relative proportions (like KtD, if you haven't already) and work on validating them, as so much is off in that regard
Low IQ
>>7201214I see what you mean but only seeing Sukunas face in the light and the rest of his body covered in shadow was kind of the point of the drawing.Bug I'll experiment and see if it looks better if I brighten it up a lil
>>7200869I'm done
How do i learn how to draw cool poses & designs like this(have not drawn in several months and am a prebeg shitter)Like what's step 1 if i want to do stuff like picrel.
>>7200056Drew some Ludomons from Digimon earlier today
i have 0 technical knowledge or skill but my intuition is telling me that this image has a very good composition.Why is everything a pose? Why does it go so hard?
>>7201176the opposite, it's a simplification
everything looks wrong, but i still love this girl
>>7201224using a grid and a ruler helped fix it, although the right side still seems off to me
fellas its finally time i bite the bullet and learn how to color and render. what are the best guides to start
>>7201330>grid>rulerif you want to work on your observational skills, I wouldn't recommend using those. if you want to check the proportions and placement of features you can overlay your drawing in a photo-editing software, open the reference photo on another layer, and turn down the opacity of the top layer. also, while there are still other problems like symbol drawing (eyes, nose, mouth), what stands out the most is the ends of the fingers and how you make them ovular, when they're often straight on the sides.
>>7200535>>7200536>>7200539>>7200544>>7200546>>7200548>>72005517 pages just to tell how to rotate a box?
>>7201371yup, next question
>>7201372Has that helped you break from flat drawing? Can you portray volume without the use of shading?
Sup begs, let's draw today in honor of our beloved Pawell, may he rest in peace. Pawell if you're here in the board with us, please tap on the screen two times...>>7201330Much, MUCH better.>>7201328The pose and overall figure is great, (pretty nice legs). But still, is the "presentation" that defeats your effort. You need to get out of the "ultra detail" stage. I've seen your other work, I know it is a thing you do, but you need to let it go. Embrace simplicity, under all of those wrinkly lines there's a beautiful masterpiece, I can see it.>>7201292Quality stuff.>>7201281You did it! Finishing pieces is a trait of an "advanced player". Well done. Awesome work anon.>>7201280Great little doodle. I like how you did the feet.>>7201236All I see is High artistic IQ>>7201190Like the other anon said, get the values and saturation just a little bit higher and it will be awesome.>>7201178HOT and classy.>>7201177We need to see more of this anon.>>7201170Upper body needs an urgent proportion adjustment, but you're on the right track. Just start a new one. Don't lose time.>>7201151Cute factor is in the bag. You achieved the hardest part already. Keep at it anon.>>7201111Haley Joel Osment syndrome. Based ballpoint pen Chad sketcher, but it looks like Edward Furlong TODAY. NICE QUADS THOUGH>>7200946This is beautiful anon>>7200910Love it, nice legs.
>>7201391Are those her tits reaching her fucking hips? Gonna need a front view.
>>7201371>>7200465fellows will do all that work just to get mogged by /beg/ mode artists that understand that appeal is the only real fundamental
>>7201382Are you asking if drawing 3D forms breaks away from making flat drawings?
>>7201400Props to him but I dont like that shit. >>7201409Yes. I am retarded and want guidance.
>>7201418Sorry I thought you were being sarcastic. Drawing basic shapes can make you break away from symbol drawing. Spheres, cylinders and boxes are your fundamentals for making the human figure. Mind you you'll also want to incorporate gesture so as not to make your figures too stiff. It's also a necessity to know basic perspective before you dive into any of this.
>>7200056did you start drawing and then want to draw your own fetishes?
>>7201430Post your fetish drawings.
>>7201399Ok, DUBS wills it. She will do one magic milky swing just for (You)
>>7201443Kinda cool. It almost looks like shattered glass by the way it's painted.
>>7201443Oh for fucks sake. I recognize your artwork now.Don't like the bimbouglification you are into.
>>7201424It looks so easy and yet I am too fucking retarded to make my figures look 3d.
>>7201430I think is the other way around actually....
>>7201444TRIPS checked. Damn this thread is being blessed like a... I don't even know.Thanks, I'm using some brush in krita in honor to Pawell. The standard sketch one I think it was.>>7201446But I like it.. I even tried to tone it down. Damn, art crowd are tough. Gotta clean my act, maybe...
>>7201391>>7201443how can i draw like this? im willing to learn, any particular lessons or videos that can help learn this technique?
>>7201467He seems to be just a Jeff Watts wannabee. So maybe you could take a look at the Watt's Atelier channel:https://www.youtube.com/@wattsatelier/videos
>>7200972>e next time I wil trace the form since I just like eyeballing my lines.break the form into simple shapes and then start eyeballing lines when you got a better handle on shitit is what helped me
>>7201032your strokes are beautiful- or is this a filter?
>>7201151i personally learned from mikeymegamega because i wanted to draw thicc and i liked his artpick an artist you like and study how they personally draw torsos/necksyou are almost there desuwhat i think you can do is study the area around hips and torso
>>7201178now that is some good ass renderingi love how there is a subtle transition between the shadows and where the light hits especially on the bra and claviclescorrect me if i am wrong but for rounded shapes like on your bra do you tend to put the darkest colour in the middle of the shape and the part furthest away from light source is the second darkest (because bounce light) and where the light hits is the brightest?
Tried drawing chibi, its too hard to give them giant heads, i simply cannot do it.
>>7201470i was more interesting in the digital technique
>>7201430Reverse. I started drawing so I could draw fetish stuff
>>7201493that drawing still came out nice, while it isnt chibi, it still looks relatively stylizedtry making the character 2.5 heads tall (including the head) and adjust the proportions to fit the new stylized shape
>>7201464Did Pawell give up or something?
>>7201430i been drawing since before i had a sexdrive and i just wanted to draw myself, knuckles and shadow, and pretty much anything i likedi also had a flipnote hetena acci started drawing my fetish after i decided to take art seriously and put my horny energy into something productive ( i wish i started doing this sooner) but back then my energy went into music
any good advice or guides for drawing tornadoes?Whenever I do it, it ends up looking like coiled up poop

>>7201560>plays bass>uses a pick instead of fingersif you aren't fingering your bass, you aren't a real bassist
This thread is so bullshit
>>7201567whats wrong?
~25 min sketch, did a good amount of eyeballing relative measurements and a little bit of using my pencil to compare measurements
>>7201569ref
>>7201563I just wanted to show that she was strummin' and I figured the pick would convey that. I don't play lol. But that's a good point I'll make sure she has a guitar instead next time
Did a lot of 5-10 min doodles today.
>>7201569I definitely need to be more measured in following figure drawings
>>7201568People dont give real advice here
>>7201584define real advice
>>7201585Something different than a single word that tries to explain on how to improve in the subject you are struggling

How do I make thick eyebrows like these angry?
>>7201625Crease between the brows
>>7201625Creases between the eyebrows as other anon saidAlso angle the inner parts near the nose downward more Anger is displayed in more than just the eyebrows too. Narrowing the eyes, clenching the teeth, their entire stance rising up and their hands balling up, their neck muscles tensing up. something about the your drawing on the left though feels really....mechanical. Did you turn the line smoothing to a high level, or use the line tool or something?
>>7201467>>7201496Thanks anon. I don't usually use that brush, but it is VERY common. You may surely recognize it, it's that sort of "fractal" looking one. Every painting software had one of those, it is called "Curve Brush". Krita have two of those labeled under "Sketch". That's why you see all Krita users doing sketches with that one brush. You just set the opacity of the brush down to 20% and there you go. Problem is that it is very sloppy, it is cool to do that sketching "slop" but you will hate it for anything else. Also it is very taxing on the nibs and the tablet surface. Photoshop have a similar one. But you may have to tweak the settings to get it to look like the krita one. Just check "Curve Brush" if you want to play with it on Photoshop. But, just download krita and play with the brush, have fun. Also, use the eraser toggle key to erase with the same brush. That's very important, so it will be consistently "sloppy" LOL. Just keep your canvas at 3000px or below. Krita is very demanding when using that brush it seems.>>7201506Pawell will NEVER give up. We're just leeching on his SOVL to keep this general's spirit up, we invoke him to keep the fire going strong.
>>7201654tableguy trying to switch up his style again but using similar proportions, curious
>>7201448looks very nice but the horse was a jump scare kek
>>7201584>>7201599i am trying my best to improve and help others improve and i also post my work to prove where i amhowever,i cannot help everyone because i dont know everything
>>7201503Thanks, will try next time i draw a chibi.
>>7201433i was the guy a couple of threads ago asking tips for drawing horse heads looking muzzle first and tilted upnow that I look at it I kind of like both angles, one where the chin is a little more down and one where it's up
>>7201708Your fetish is horses then?
>>7201710yeah
>>7201712Like, just horses? Or horses fucking people?
Good morning.
>>7201647kino
>>7201708>>7201712Post your horsecock studies.
>>7201654How did you get so good anon? What kind of studies do you do?
>>7201713horses fucking women (preferably taking their virginity and impregnating them too)although my fetish IS a bit expanded to include horse-like creatures>>7201716actually I find the regular old horsecock to be somewhat blandthe type of monster cock I came up with has a dog knot at the base, corkscrews up the shaft, a double knot at the end similar to a fossa, and the glans is encased in a flower petal radial like structure that opens up into a glans resembling a softshell turtle species:>https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Description-and-Taxonomic-Importance-of-Penial-in-Wike/5902fdd873a6b3e9e71551482c7c9dcabaed7757Refer to figure 2, Pelochelys bibroniThe entire penis is covered in backward facing barbs, and the tip has forward facing barbs.I felt like Laios from Dungeon Meshi designing his monster OC when I came up with this ideaThis is a rough sketch I drew up just now.
>>7201720Gonna need a blog to keep up with your depravity.
Please tell me there are decent cheap tablets available and they're not all as awful as the Huion one I got

>>7201538>>7201539your advice helps with drawing the tornadoThe thing is I'm trying to draw a version of Neji's spinning attack in my own style but it kind of loses the tornado-ey appearance when I make it horizontal
>>7201478>i personally learned from mikeymegamegayeah, i'm also using his videos as guides/learning because he always goes over his thought process and understanding about the body when drawing
>>7201724the cheapest ones are trash, medium priced ones made in the last couple years or so are fine. You can find barely used ones for very cheap on Ebay, Craigslist, Facebook marketplace etc.
>>7201720The world would be a better place without you in it
>>7201718We all follow the same path. We want to draw like our favorite anime artist, we manage to copy illustrations form them, perfectly. But then we realize we can't construct jackshit by ourselves. Like Proko doing the kangaroo. "Do asuka eating an icecream now" and all you can do is Naruto taking a shit. So you go to the "western classic masters". But you do the same mistake copying classic pieces like a xerox. And then someone says "now do the David throwing the stone" And you can't even think about how to do that. So you go learn anatomy, but then you realize you are making horrible shit with zero appeal. So you realize that you must grind a trillion poses to understand what you're drawing and build the image in your head. So you grind figures, but it's a monumental task that your head refuses to engage with. And then it happens, you start to reach for the primordial basic instincts, the coomer brain (if you have it) takes control. And you start to grind for FUN, every crazy fun shit, all combinations, all possibilities, you even seek other people ideas. And you have the time of your life turning crazy ideas into visual depictions. It's the power of god, growing, being cast like magic. And then you can bend shit in whatever shape, form or style, because you obsessed for years so much, fucking up, dropping it, starting again, dropping it again, starting again, till one day you just have it. But you can't have it with out the fuck ups and fails. And the acceptance that you will not "make it". Cause at some point you will have to go on having fun with this, knowing that it's a lost battle. Whoever gave you this blessing was a satanic joker, and the bless it's just a curse that will haunt you till the day you die. And the only thing you can do is to find a "deep" meaning for it. And accept that it is there, like in the movie "A beautiful mind" the guy accept that an invisible person is there looking at him even when that thing doesn't exist, but only in his mind
>>7201624??
>>7201755Yes. There are anons who believe that drawing the most fundamental form from multiple angles is useless.Take a look at the IQ bell curve and it'll all become clear
>>7201759pyw
>>7201744good idea, i'll buy used
>>7201720kill yourself you mentally ill vaush tier clown
>>7201753wtf you just described the past 9 years of my life
>>7200812I think that's low int. that's pretty good man.The only thing that bothers me is the girl in the background and the effect (filter?) that you applied. I assume you were going for an out-of-focus effect, but it feels a bit inconsistent. that and maybe seeing the clothing wrap behind her in some of the shoulders and sleeves to give it more depth.
i think somethings off about the proportions but i can’t tell what it is
>want to draw guns>thinking about small details makes my brain implodeGod I'm so cooked
>>7201772Like I said, it is a pretty common "artistic path", a lot of people have similar stories. But I think that in the present times that "common path" will be broken. Kids today behave in totally different way. With AI now they won't feel the need to imagine and produce their own ideas or "art pieces". And with the overload of content feed, they will not have to even think or imagine anything anymore. It is already happening with young kids.
>>7201714cutei love her bodyshape>>7201743damn seeing that screenie takes me backthere is another newer channel that people compare to mikey here is his channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LinesSensei/featuredhe has been uploading on the weekly basis and a lot of his vids are shortstack based if you are into that>>7201736neji's attack is sort of a defensive dome of chakraso i would say draw neji first and then draw the dome around him (as a guideline to erase or hide later) then add the tornado like detailsalso glad to know that i helped! :D>>7201775is this the mc from postal?>>7201778peep world of guns on steam (free program that allows you to study the construction of guns) there is also a infograph of how to draw a gun floating around the board if an anon could be so kind to post it (not sure if i have it saved)the infograph breaks down gun constructionfor things you are unfamiliar with, what helped me was to start big and THEN add details unless the detail is supposed to be the focus of the piece
>>7201784>>7201778CLICK CLACK... BOOM GOES THE INFOGRAPHNOW GET TO DRAWING YOUR SOLDIERS OR WHATEVER YOU ARE DRAWING
>>7201784your advice helped! I based this image off a picture of an Airbender making a dome but yeah, drawing the dome shape and then doing the lines after did workalso blurring it does also help a lot with making it look more like a tornado, since anything spinning is by nature going to be blurryI like this as a trial run but I think when I draw this sort of stuff in the future I will probably draw fewer, thicker, and more jagged lines like the large ones in picrel, and cut down on the thinner lines.
>>7201647fellow burger
My contribution for the paint thread.>Anatomy is all kinds of fucked>Rock and sea are a fucking embarassment >Face is a boring full frontal, unsurprisingly>No perspective, volumes or depth at all.>Light and shading make no fucking sense.Maybe by next year I will be able to draw anything but a full frontal or not hide the hands.
>>7201815really like the tummy
>>7201775you probably thought you were going to draw today... surprise
duude i remember these times when i could draw cool anatomy, where did my gains went
Some leather rendering practice. Totally botched the face
>>7201675I understand but there are still clowns here that think that a single word is enough. Which is even worse than not giving advice at all.
what does this look like
>>7201815nice forms nigga
>>7201897a beach?
>>7201897Looks like Toa Canisters washing up on the Island of Mata Nui
>>7201894This is very nice. I am so bad at drawing clothes. I leave everyone naked. Clothes just follow no rules.
>>7200934It's chopper inside Nico Robin's body.
>>7201899It is flat. There are no good forms there.
critic pls
>>7201802thats nice to hear man ahahahaapply what i said to other things you want to draw and simplify it into shapesi bet your finished pic is going to look so badass
>>7201815the torso itself is well drawn imoa full frontal face is not bad btw in my opinion, its about the WHOLE picture dont get stuck up on all the detailsas for the other points>rock looks fine to me and it isnt where my eye is drawnif you want to improve on that, practice drawing naature, and bodies of water>perspective volume, depthjust run some exercises and you're gucci>lightingsame as the other point run exercises and you are goodi feel you are being a bit harsh on yourself thoughyour picture is not awful at all and it has appealalso cute ufo in the back
>>7201895like what"practice" etci know, its frustratingthere are so many people who probably should just keep their mouth closed because their advice is bootythis is why i resigned to teaching myself most things but if i find a solid sensei i will follow them to hell and back
>>7202035the rendering looks pretty solid manif it is better than before you are doing good and need to keep it up>>7201897beach>>7201846pretty nun>>7201894are the boots leather too?
>>7201809not into furry, but that one - would.Maybe some kitty nose/thiccy lips, make it better
Any pointers on anatomy and especially the right arm behind the body, can't seem to figure out the perspective or what ever it is (no reference).
>>7202057>>7201899>>7201818Don't lie to him. It looks like kindergarten shit. Especially the background and rock looks laughable, the face is westoid flat animu shit and the tail looks like a cheap chink plastic costume
Sorry, unrelated, but how do you build a following as a sfw artist? I know I got the algorithm on my side unlike my nsfw account, but I have 0 followers and only have started posting art on that account.Do I just post consistently? Follow Trends? My media thread isn't shat up with reaction images and slop. It's literally just my art.
I wish I was an attractive female so I could draw with my boobs pushing against my tight shirt and not having to worry about having an erection when I draw.
>>7202077This honestly isn't a question you want to ask in a /beg/ thread./ic/ will occasionally make social media follower threads, wait for one of those to pop up.
>>7202077Be female.
>>7202078hate to burst your bubble, but unattractive females have boobs too
>>7202083Ok.
>>7202069thats supposed to be a monster girl anon it aint supposed to be a furry
>>7202076>the tail looks like a cheap chink plastic costumethat is most definitely intentionalalso that is my genuine opinion and i do look forward to seeing his shit a year down the line
>>7202078yeah just a wet coochie making a mess everywhere
>>7202072your form looks solid (can i see your guidelines? i wanna study them please)line weight is in order tooi would say to figure out what the character is supposed to be doing before picking a pose (is she dancing)maybe try redrawing her but use a reference
No, no, it's not over. It was never over, I just needed some rest. The world is full of beautiful art opportunities, amazing artists and beautiful women, all waiting for us. The world is your canvas, anon, unleash your creativity.
>>7202086If I'm not attractive how am I supposed to wear a bikini while drawing or use myself as reference? >>7202092Better than a boner. I hate getting hard.
>>7202097ye thread hit bump limit
>>7202102what if your nipples get hard instead and they are super sensitive to the point where even rubbing on your shirt is titillating (lol)
>>7202035Looking pretty dull, think you could play with the saturation.
At this rate I will never breach low/beg/ hell.Once more unto the breach, dear friends.
>>7202096She's supposed to be standing but her pose is that of a cactus. Kinda like those cactus characters from Final Fantasy. I just kinda made a pose from imagination but I'll have narrative in mind next time.As for guidelines I can only offer this initial sketch I did before going over it in more detail. Started with getting the movement and "feel" of the pose down first before going into finer details. Hope this pic suffices and thanks for the tips.
study
>>7202114thanks for the guidelineswhy not make a reference of yourself doing the catcus pose and use that?
>>7202121shes prettty and looks friendlywhat were you studying?
>>7202124Would be the logical thing to do, just didn’t have the means to take a pic right as I was coming up with the idea. Gonna try and make a reff tomorrow then.
>>7202062cool thanks, will keep going.>>7202106you are right I forgot to color correct after, here is after bumping the contrast a little, sure it looks a little more vivid.
>>7202129no phone or figurine to pose?
>>7202142Got a phone but too lazy to prop it up right now.
I forgot what was it that makes you draw easily faces. Especially eyes and mouths. Do you have some resources?
>>7201784>there is another newer channel that people compare to mikeyi like his style, thanks for the recommendation
wip
Have not done trad in a long time but I finally got a sketchbook.
>>7201759imagine liking character art/landscape art/hentai or whatever it is you like and then thinking you have to draw 1000 boxes to achieve that instead of just drawing what you like 1000 times
>>7202125mostly the pose and the b&w values
>>7202183I mean... it's not like you have to draw 1000 boxes daily it's 250 at your fucking pace mando 10 a day, 5 a day and go on toward study what you are actually interested in... i myself invest 3 daily hours since i work so i go 1 hour of study and 2 hours of drawing for fun.
>>7202154seconding this question because i love drawing faceswhat i usually do is draw a circle and construct the jaw from there and separate the face based on how i want the proportions to beso if i want big eyes i outline a spot for eyes and go from there
>>7202173this looks like it is gonna be cute>>7202177pretty solid for coming off of hiatuslove the stylization but the tits could use some work
>>7202170>i like his stylethats why i reccomended him ;D have fun!
>>7202199>this looks like it is gonna be cuteAs long I don't butcher all the soul with lineart
>>7200101Finished digitizing this. As I expected I had to make some alterations to the shape of the face and the eyes before I got to something I was happy with.Is there anything more I can do here/glaring I can fix before I add a background and call this finished?
>>7202227one eye is slightly bigger than the other
>>7202230like my balls>Verification not required.
>>7202230I tried making them equal size but it didn't look right. Usually depending on the angle I understand I have to make one smaller and one larger but it's tough to get the hang of.
>>7202227try using more straight lines, there are too many convex lines so it looks bloated like a sausage woman, try to find and draw the boney parts of the body, (clavicle, elbow, ulna, asis, sacrum, ribs, knee, ankles, etc) this will help you in getting a better flow of your lines.drop the stabilizer for now get better at freehand.
>>7202199Thank you, I did clean it up a little.
>>7202217is that doomguy hugging a 2hu?>>7202311that looks a tad more natural, try to remember that there are still muscles under the breastsalso i love the lip you drew
>>7202227what is your process for digitizing
>>7202339I scan whatever I've drawn on paper and then trace over it and add detail while making corrections where I see fit. I'm only using a mouse since I don't have a tablet or any actual digital art equipment.
>>7202341>I'm only using a mouse since I don't have a tablet or any actual digital art equipment.
>>7202104Then I just take off my shirt, duh.
>>7200070Learn what atmospheric perspective is and use big brushes I guess. I can't do backgrounds either kek.>>7200151I like 3 personally, reads as the most interesting based off my instinct.>>7200586I would add texture to the line if you look at other animal drawings they often are not drawn with smooth lines and are more jagged. If you can't find an example I'd check out Beatrix Potter.>>7201170Small head is the most obvious issue to me.>>7201288Learning to construct a basic mannequin in perspective probably. Getting to that point probably requires a few to a lot of steps inbetween.Anyway, anyone open to critique my work? picrel.
>>7202382as you take off your shirt you get more and more sensitized by the stimulation on your nips by the time you take your shirt off completely, your whole body is so sensitive that the wind's draft tickles

>>7200480Leave this place already, this board has nothing to teach you anymore, you're ready for Youtube/instagram tutorials, pinterest used to be a great resource but AI art killed pinterest with its spam.
>>7202338>is that doomguy hugging a 2hu?yep
>>7202201first attempt but i really like his guidelines, it helps a lot to understand what line connects to another. I do wish the videos were a bit slower/longer. Also ignore the head part
