>>7410045Dass hot. Hands still need some practice, but looking like you're going in the right direction
>>7410096Not in this drawing, maybe next one. I'm not that good at drawing hands :D
>>7410124That's exactly why you should draw them
Sketch of a dream I had. Me and a bunch of people were being tormented by these reality warping entities that would trick us into struggling for freedom in a series of "games", until we stopped playing along. They made like a all white prison for us and kept trying to instigate us to fight one another, and after a while of scheming and talking about some occult shit I don't remember anymore one of the people did like a ritual and became this thing to break us out. Might sound like nonsense, but it was one of he mot vivid and "real" feeling dreams I've ever had
>>7410126fair enough, But I really wanted to focus on clothes this time. I didn't want to undertake too many things at once
>>7410092learn to draw hands, so you can draw them holding hands
>>7410092Is she looking at her boobs?
remember that one time loomis said "the truth is that we do not see the talent until the means of bringing it forth has been developed. that means is a reasonably accurate analysis and understanding of the laws of nature as they apply to man's vision"wagmi bros (past being /beg/ at least)

Could anyone advice how to transform several layers in krita? I've finished (kinda) my painting and found out that the proprotions are off. So I need to transform multiple layers at the same time.
>>7410157combine the layers that need transforming into 1 layer
>>7410157I already told you to group them \*~*/
>>7410092Draw them in front of a firing squad
>>7410164why would you say something like this?
>>7410092Your art has soul. It's not the best, but you can see how much care and effort goes into it. You can tell you truly enjoy the process and character you made.
>>7410164lmfao
Any advice for drawing swords or guns?
>>7410173Do you deliberately not draw highlights on these still lives?
Some stuff I did yesterday1/4
>>74101822/4
>>74101833/4
>>7410185Last.
>>7410173hey that's pretty good, the forms are defined nicelyyou could try doing highlights on the ceramics since it looks a little clay-ishoverall you can probably >>7410176for guns i would say just have good perspective and basic forms down then look at lots of pictures of them and copy them till you have a feel for itmost modern pistols and rifles are just blocks of metal with grooves cut, knobs, triggers, buttons, scopes are cylinders, etc.also don't forget to draw the rifling if you have a view looking into the muzzle, it makes it look like you don't know how guns workyou could probably look around on /k/ for image sets or other sites where you could find images
>>7410195holy fucking brain damage>>7410173*overall you can probably work on adding in more details just in general>>7410176*looking down the muzzle/barrel
>>7410173Looks like you hit a wall anon. These past few still lifes all looked the same skillwise. It's time you either try something different with those or you move on to other stuff.Or you continue doing them, idk.
>>7410164lmao>>7410092draw them as the firing squad
>>7410157create a group, put all layers into that group, select the group, you can now transform all included as if it was a single layer
I call the place where i store my drawings "BEGCITY", what do you go with?
>>7410210etna my beloved
Work in progress. I never finish any of these, get bored after the initial sketch and half-ass the rest until I lose interest completely. How do you guys stay interested in any given pic?
Hello beg. First i would like to adress the questions from last thread>check my blog for more complete work, there are tags and or rating to filter the ugly studies away and everything, also projects>my most inherent goal at the moment is to learn how to draw figgies or die trying. so far it looks death will come sooner>>7410217we think less and draw more>>7410211too blurry to be coomable, but it shows promise>>7410173anon do you realize that painting is rendering right? the whole point of rendering is to add the OMPH feeling to drawing so normies get amazed and pay you money. You arent really training much if you call painting at this rough stage as finished. It is not like my figgies, because i am training how to construct / draw them. If i was training rendering i would have to try way harder on every single figgie (which i will start doing in a few days). Your stuff is still too blury and misses the critical details which makes painting fun to look at.>>7410121eyes too far apart, violating perspective
>>7410217gg
>>7410238Mog me some more why doncha. I only started doing color recently, hate doing it cuz I'm color blind and can't tell whats what.
>>7410240nta but would coloring in grayscale be easier?could just use black, white, and gray
>>7410210Love how the pillow she's holding is making it look like she has huge tits
>>7410003new bread? Just draw.>>7410092You should crop closer than when the drawing stops or you can sketch the insinuation. This kinda looks like you didn't know how to continue.>>7410121Nice light and shadow, but the highlights on the eyes are normally on the direction of the light.>>7410187Your stuff is good, but your skulls need work.
How can I avoid ending up like Pawell?
>>7410234What's with you guys and blogs?>hey got any work you'd like to shareOh yeah-fuck yeah>cool can I seeSure if you come into this back alley>what? just show me here while we're talkingI'd really like you to come to my alley
>>7410265explain ending up like pawell
>>7410277nta but i feel like blogs/external sites are not comparable to back alleys and haven't been since like 2007that aside it is kind of annoying
>>7410156She looks really good. I'm glad you wanted to draw her>>7410253in hindsight I think I should have cropped it more or do some fading out>>7410169thanks. I really like drawing my character in different situations
>>7410116well worth the effort
>>7410286You should draw her in front a firing squad
>>7410003how do I make him look less wonky on the right
>>7410277anon you could just google my handle, why do you think i put it in every single picture? for fun?literally 2nd result off google, but even if you click first, the blog is linked there somewherehttps://pawell2418.github.io/
Bio engineered animals from a scifi story. Concept is they were made to be released in abandoned undercities in preparation for re-colonization efforts. These things would grow in population, feeding on other invasive species in the area, then serve as a food source for new colonists.

working on character design for a project. Haven't nailed down exactly what style I want yet>>7410312nice use of colors anon, I enjoy
>>7410294I never asked you for anything. I just think posting your blog when someone asks for one of your works is a lazy way to get traffic. Just post something for the guy. Don't make him take extra time to go to your blog.
>>7410297Genetic cocktail: Spider, bat and wild boar... Am I correct?
>>7410332Yae, you got it. At this point in the setting most of the natural biosphere has been replaced by engineered ones, and there is a joint effort between the larger nations called the Purification Project. The short of it is they're attempting to restore what once was, or at least replace the abominations with things resembling natural animals.
>>7410343I just hope mosquitoes and flies to get fucking extinct. Please anon, make it happen.

first attempt at painting a background, at least you can kinda tell whats going onAny advice on improving other than "just draw" more?
>>7410424very good, lacks sharp edges though, makes it look less 3d.
am i the only one that doesnt really care for morpho
>>7410433Morpho made my drawings uglier until I went back to anime study
>>7410433Please don't say that, I chose between him and Tom Fox and chose Morpho to learn off of
>>7410433he's good for learning anatomy when you're just starting out>>7410431thanks
For this new year, I'm gonna draw more stuff I want.
>>7410312She looks really good
>>7410381I'll draw more stories after the holidays, I'll keep that one in mind
>>7410473Nice work on the highlights and muscle shapes. Fit female form is more difficult due to having being delicate yet muscular, you're doing a good job.
>>7410424>>7410369>>7410312>>7410182>>7410173Nice paintings. I can't type much at the moment, but I'll be rooting for you for putting in the extra effort and coloring and painting your drawings
>>7410128The Rake if he took roids. Excellent hatching.>>7410217This is really cool. To answer your question: I take breaks and work on it throughout the day.>>7410234The fluidity in the punching poses are awesome. >>7410286What's your end game?>>7410297You're really good at monsters and creatures.
>>7410473Quick correction: The deltoid on her left arm looks like its behind her triceps, which isn't how it works.
>>7410300Draw her getting brutally raped
>>7410433No, I refuse to learn from someone whose art I find thoroughly unappealing
>>7410437Show me what morpho has done for you.
>>7410512Well I just finished with Michael Hampton and wanted someone who focused on anatomy next, I haven't used Morpho but that's the direction at least
Her walking feels stiff. Is it just that I'm not good at gesture yet, or am I missing something else?
>>7410526Also, I'd like some pointers on what seems to be my weakest point. I assume it's anatomy, looking at the hand especially.
>>7410485I haven't really thought about endgame, I've been drawing my stories because it's fun since November. I haven't really thought about what I should do with them or what direction I should take them.
>>7410485>You're really good at monsters and creatures.Thanks brah, ugly things are my wheelhouse.
tried a new way of shading noses today + tried to incorporate more colours (mainly focused on the skin)>>7410312super cool use of colours, this kinda style is something i've aspired to, do you have any tips?>>7410369the clothes's rendering looks good imo, if you focused a bit more on collarbone positioning and hair rendering techniques this could be even better!
>>7410526I'm not sure if this is a better decision, but I want to tighten it
>>7410060Ah I give up, I spent way too much time on it and it's becoming too frustrating Better planning/prototyping would have helped a lot imo and could have avoided me pointless rendering before undoing everything. I'll try doing that for the next full drawing i wanna do
>>7410003What is the training wheels method for learning to paint? For instance how the fuck do I blend or should I not even bother? Specifically with procreate it feels like so splotchy trying to blend with a round brush.
>>7410551I see what you mean. Yeah, I think that looks better than having everything spread out. Conveys the depth much better. Question regarding that: Would you add rimlighting to her in that case, or just leave it without?And what you did with the feet also feels more natural. I was going for having the image be mid stride, but maybe that just doesn't work here.Thanks anon, appreciate it.
>>7410526For this style of drawing, it looks fine. My advice is to draw her standing still, and in a more exaggerated pose, like sprinting. Compare how the hair and fabric/sleeves should differ between the 3 poses. Trying to show weight and inertia for clothes/hair/drapery is not easy, anon. Especially in a stylized drawing like this.
>>7410327All the faces look like they are different people's.
>>7410210I can't be the only one who expected bald pink pussy, right? Anyways this is your drawing and I get that. But check the official art(book), and compare the colors.
>>7410060>>7410094The handles look angled, but the blades don't.
>>7410584Well yea I'm trying to figure out what I want her to look like, I'm doing character design and style explorations. Probably will go with something close to the top middle and right on that one.
>>7410580>My advice is to draw her standing still, and in a more exaggerated pose, like sprintingSounds like a good next step. Gonna see if her ingame running animations can be used as a guide, but either way gonna do some studies on that stuff in motion. Probably should have done that here for reference already and not just use a mannequin for the pose, oops.>Trying to show weight and inertia for clothes/hair/drapery is not easyI took me a few tries to get the hair to look at least a little plausible, but yeah, still a long way to go.Thank you as well anon.
>>7410559
>>7410542I didn't want to try and pressure you or anything, I was just curious. What you're doing is way better than what I do. Keep having fun. >>7410546I know you meant this at a self-dig but you really shouldn't. Todd Mcfarlane is known for his monsters and has a distinct style.

master study
Did i copied it good?
>>7410156Damn those arms are breaking like a wet noodle.
>>7410662nta but the way you type outs you as being a jealous ngmi. sad, really
>>7410669Not really. Not much to be jealous in that drawing there. This anon has posted much better drawings way more times, doesn't change the fact that that anatomy is broken. That guy can draw better figures than that or he's not that familiar with that kind of pose- either way he made a mistake, it happens.
heheh
>>7410377 Eh I’m pretty weak on plenty of fundamentals i wouldn’t say int>>7410379Yep pretty much>>7410549 Thank you! I just start off painting by throwing the background color in, fiddling with the rgb sliders to find complimentary colors, and a greyscale filter every so often to check values. I also mixed colors on the canvas a bit with throwing them over each other with slight opacity and color picking. Yea, my anatomy is still pretty bad.
Do I really need to draw 100 boxes?
started as a warmup but I polished it a bit, her name is Reimiie and she really likes guns
>>7410662I know I need to rotate crotch more and make boots biggerarms for me looks not much different from the ref. is colored looks just as broken?
>>7410092MOGGED
>>7410698you need to be able to draw two boxes. in any arrangement, position, and rotation. what it would take is up to you, but inability to do that will make you unable to move forward
>>7410662damn you don't know that bitches tend to have weird flexible elbows which makes them get that extreme looking angle when they put their body weight onto one of their armsDAMN
>>7410698you need to get to a point where drawing a box isn't a chore
can anyone explain to me his process?
>>7410725
>>7410725two stepsbe able to drawfeel the form
>>7410728what even does ambient occlusion mean
>>7410733areas where light doesn't usually go, so they'll be darker
>>7410675Trying to dunk on another anon huh, how unsportsmanlike. That's why people says artists are faggots...
>>7410710I think what's doing it for me is how thin her arms get at the forearm muscles. I expect even on a skinny woman the arm to flare out a bit there.
>>7410733"Ambient" light is the light that comes from all around. The sky, walls, etc. In crevices, the number of directions light can come in from these all-round light sources is more limited. It is space where the 'ambient' light is 'occluded'.
>>7410163Oh, sorry, I'v' misinterprited your advice. Thanks. >>7410210THanks!
>>7410738I don't try to d3fend sloppy drawing, but that is how it was supposed to work
Where do I go for permission to draw
>>7410754Yeah. Kicking out the arms a bit can work or you can do it more straight down like in the ref. Again, the main problem is how thin your arms were at the joints, seemed too unnatural. Another thing is that even if it IS technically possible, you should avoid things that LOOK awkward at all costs since you control the pose. Other things being the leg on the floor needing to be bigger/longer and that crotch needing to be adjusted
>>7410772crab...
>>7410780Oh shit!!! He's pulling his cock out!!!
>>7410782Please tell me a knight comes along and cleaves their skulls in half
>>7410780whats he doing to my furry wife...
I drew military guy but he is cold
>>7410817Whoops
>>7410780>>7410782anti soul...
Drawing one Makima every day for the month of December to see how much I can improveDay 22: I tried even harder this time. I feel I did better with the hair this time. But when I was just going back to adjust the facial feautres because I noticed they were a touch too far forward, my pencil punched a hole in the paper. Oh well. I think its still better than last time. in both the hair, proportions, and shading
anyone know what those things are in the sky I don't think they're drones
why are you doing this to her
Also drew military girl but dead
the adjusted version, paper hole and all. Might still look better even though its got that blemish. Would adjust the lips a little more, enlarge them just a tad I think. But I dare not mess with that area any further.
>>7410837cyclops?
I don't know what I want. And I know something wrong.Anyone redline?Or tell me what you'd change.
>>7410845? huh?
>>7410837I'm hard.
>>7410847Ohhh shit I just got back from taking a break, I see a little clearer now. The skirt thing is kinda obstruding out forward for no reason....
>>7410837body of a man, midface of a child
>>7410852i look like that...
>>7410862i doubt you lack proper nose structure and nostrils like that drawing does.
>>7410863you'd be suprised
>>7410852I can elongate his head and spread out his features a bit.Idk how much that helps thoRedline?
>>7410868Better, but weird choice to draw the top line of the nose for a high-angle shot
>>7410870Yeah it wasn’t intended to be one a first but I added the girl later
