Thread to study the adult male body. Post your art, discuss artists, and post resources related to the subject of cute boys and handsome men.

Some resources:
>English Youtube channel with tutorials about ikemen/anime boys:
https://www.youtube.com/user/SirKite92/videos
https://www.youtube.com/c/Dospordos/videos

Rules:
>Do not take the bait or derail. Don't be a sperg.
>Don't fight about different male body types, ikemen/twink/bara. Nobody cares.
>No femboy/trans/traps/futa. Go to /salt/ for that.
>No shota. Go to /lsg/ or /ssg/ for that.
>No tits, no coochies, no female body ratio.
>Females are welcome so long as the image remains male focused.
>Don't sperg if a feminine male (not femboy) is posted, ignore if it's not your cup of tea, keep in mind the nature of stylization and simplification in anime and cartoon art styles before you choose to derail the thread, though crit is welcome like always.

This is about miniature painting but it applies to digital as well.
If you can't understand how to translate it to the medium of your choice, study more.

>>7258774
My advice will likely not be serviceable due to it being from a traditional perspective but I would try and convey some texture like brushing of the metal in various angles to make up the surface visual of it. Though this would be in regards to armour so not sure how much it'd apply.

Metal is reflective. It needs to look like it's reflecting it's surroundings. Brighter lights, darker darks, and add color from the ground and sky onto the armor where it makes sense. That's a real simple way to make it look more metallic.

Thank you for the comment, I'm glad I have. Blue or Red pencil is great, a nice accompaniment, highlight, implicator.
This is so cute and so lovely! I love your traditional work. Feels comfy. The frame as the other anon said looks beautiful. I love his soft expression looking up and over and the general vibe of an antique portrait in a frame. It's great.

Been busy drawing so didn't have much time to do sketching practice/relax for myself. So a quick few lines.
Funnily enough I've been grinding digital so much some days it's "easier" to draw in it.

Study+testing pencils
Didn’t have the rest of the ref, so I had to use my own knowledge. I think the back of the torso should’ve been longer. Also tried to be more conscientious of how I draw out the face.

And yeah I agree I did get a little too comfy drawing anime girls all last month for artfight. I notice when I draw girls it’s easier to throw anatomy and whatnot to the wind and take shortcuts for lots of stuff.

>story on the guy
Condensed version is that he’s an empath whose powers made him the ideal candidate to become a human test subject in a series of power doping experiments. Doping his powers allowed him to manifest a world in his own mind to escape the horrors of the outside world and preserve what’s left of his rapidly-fading memories, and he is able to communicate with others via the “stars,” which are mental representations of people’s souls.

Funny you mention The Little Prince because that’s one of my all-time favorite books, and I love the style of those illustrations a lot. I’ll take your words as a compliment :)

>>7261650
Really feeling the form here on that motorbike and your OC. Awesome stuff!!!
>>
>>7262440
It's easy to make fluid soft ladies for sure. For gentlemen (typically) there is a lot more firm structure to adhere to. Agreed.

OH what a cool backstory and lore for him.
>one of my all time favourites
Amazing! I'm glad! I'd say it's impact is that present in your work :)

seriously I love them so much, tired eyes are the best.
he looks great! fabulous build, lovely hair and brows. I personally think 3/4 is fine unless there is something specific you want on his backside that the other person should know about. (specific muscle group attention, scars, a booty outside of the expected etc.)

Nailing expressions can be really fulfilling when you get them just how you want!

a big part of what got me into drawing guys was because of gender war stuff.

I started after I saw some statistics that said women rate the average man as 2 points uglier than average, whereas men rated the average woman as average. A lot of guys were being all salty and bitter thinking women are being picky, but honestly I just figured guys are being ranked 2 points uglier, because we actually are 2 points uglier. which led to... "wait we're actually this ugly, how tf do they even get it up for us?" haha...

I always figured you have to be gay or a girl to see men as attractive like its ESP ghost vision stuff only certain special people possess, but genius that I am, I had a rly smort thought. "y'know, I bet that's not true. I bet you can see the appeal in it, even if you're not actually into guys." Like think about it, a cute thing is clearly, visibly a cute thing, even if you feel nothing towards cute things. I should still be able to tell there's appeal to something, even if I'm not into it.

And so I looked at guys trying to see the appeal in them, and funny i found literally zero at first, but eventually I found some. I explored appeal through drawing, and I decided quickly that I didn't want to be blindly follow some stereotypical idea of what I thought a woman might like, I wanted to see with my own eyes and say "*I* see the appeal in this guy, I MYSELF actually like how this guy looks."

and basically um, that got me drawing guys. turns out guys are quite fun to draw when you try to make them cute, and I just... like making them? I like how mine look very much. I don't really know why but almost no one seems to draw them like me.
>>
>>7283190
It's not that men are uglier, they just put less effort into appearance because they're too lazy or think it's gay, which I guess does make them uglier nvm

i was asking because of the two horizontal lines you added over his crotch and kind of makes it look like nothings there
i think if you'd drop the two fold (?) lines it would probably look more natural without you having to fully draw the bulge

The /cgsg/ server is officially re-opened!
A gentle reminder to people interested in joining the /cgsg/ server:

Please do the following if you want access to the cord upon arrival:

1. Post one piece of work previously posted in the /cgsg/ threads or just let us know what website you are coming when you get inside the server.

2. Post 3 completed illustrations including a WIP with layers visible. No exceptions.
>>
Do you ever have a piece you work on a long time, you're pretty satisfied surprisingly with it.
Then you look at it the next day and see all the little things you could have done to improve it further.
Then feel hesitant to share it as those mistakes are all you'll (and others possibly) will see and notice?

I think if you do something where you add just a slight very slight amount more volume to the outward curve of muscle but cut more deeply back in on the parts close to bone it will give him an overall more shapely silhouette.
With his upper body the way it is, you could even add volume to the legs and I still think he'd look fine, you could always make him a little taller as well to fit more room in for curves.
Changing the dungaree's big from spilling over might help to with visibility.
>>7288711
Wa! Really nice trunk and chest. I love his colours too. Good luck with your bodytype thinking! More healed/older looking scars are kino too.
>>
>>7288531
>>7288812
Also you could slightly open his leg's stance more, that might give you more room to show the shape and flow. Kinda like some fighting game chara's art is to show their form.

Does anyone have any traditional supply recommendations? What media do you have most fun with, I already have the basics so I mean like random add ons that make mixed media more fun.
>>
>>7294807
i unironically really like super basic trad stuff
ballpoint pens, sharpies, highlight markers, post it notes, washi tape, all that kind of stuff
it's kind of comforting to just draw something in pen without having to worry how good it looks and then just adding random shit to the drawing
>>
>>7294807
I am really a fan of watercolors+ink (both free ink and fineliners work). Also I really enjoy alcohol markers, particularly the ones with brush tips. Also colored pencils... they go really well with ink and watercolor as well, and you can layer them on top of your markerwork :)

i personally really like colour pencils, watercolour and jelly pens! but honestly you can't go wrong with any of it! i like to grab a bunch of new colours that remind me of a character and then making a drawing out of those various pens or pencils i picked up. makes for a fun piece! also as that other anon said, washi tape is great too :)

What's the game about

>>7296799
Basically a visual novel about two boys who plot to murder someone. You play as this guy over here, who's the MC and you make decisions that change whether you murder someone. He's an unreliable narrator though. Kind of a prequel to a comic I wrote (still a big WIP) though where the two boys show up in a trial for the murders they committed.

nonnies HELP! trying to draw a difficult pose and have no idea how to make this guy look over his shoulder at the viewer in a believable way. i suppose the head should be drawn in a side view of sorts but i can't make it look right without drastically changing the angle of the torso?
any redline from more experienced artists greatly appreciated.
>>
>>7302025
When I look at myself with this torso pose/angle in the mirror, with the left-most head position my mouth and chin are obscured by my shoulder. When I tilt my head to look like the right-most head position, it feels more natural and my mouth becomes visible

Damn anon, this is honestly pretty good. Both head turns look natural/good to me, but then again, I'm a big /beg/. Love the shoulders/back.
>>
>>7302025
I think the one you have with the body looks most natural. I'd just rotate his pupil/eyeball up so that it looks like he's peeking at (You) (Us) the viewer.
Is he supposed to be posing and then looking back sheepishly? If so, that's the best one imo.

If he's supposed to be looking back and just casual the other is better (with question mark) and I think again the visual of where his pupils go will convey the feeling of looking at us/the subject.
Though the one with the ? mark almost looks like he'd be (attempting) looking down behind him naturally.
>>
>>7299492
Super cute anon, though I'd work a bit more on his abdominal muscles and maybe make the flare of his cockhead just a little less pronounced.

>>7299492
I'd bring his hips in and make his upper traps more pronounced. Good job on the face though. Cute and handsome expression.

I'd say the eyes look a little too flat and almondy and the swoop nose is a bit much. This could be just style though. The ear also feels off but not sure why. I do agree with the other anon that the body looks off.
The wet hair is lovely and over all colours used.

my take on a fix for the proportions looking wonky, though i probably coulda also made his arms shorter. Rendering looks great though, i really like his face and hands in particular

AAGGHHHHH this is so kino!!! Everyone's chibis are so cute!!!

>>7307899
Nice job here. I love the colors and texture brushes you used to depict the nature/hair. I agree with the other anons' fixes... shortening the torso would make the whole thing perfect!

>>7308142
Love the rendering and the pose!!!

>>7308660
NTA, but dare I say, this is unfathomably based!!! I really like the way you rendered his wings/figure/everything else >:{}

>drawpile
You make all your work in DRAWPILE?!
Oh my shit, that is insane... it really makes your rendering look unique!

Regular ink or soft ink brush in magma? May I ask what your settings are?
Regardless, it speaks to your ability! Lovely rendering and tone again. Torso, expression and left arm are especially wonderful.

I feel like for the eyes the lacrimal and tear duct are missing to make them more 3D looking
otherwise cool artwork I like it
