>>7754687Unless the point of your study was to train your eye and copy something as closely as possible, rather than drawing to understand the subject, or it's colours, or what have you, then I don't think this is a problem.So long as your study looks good, and captured what you were trying to study, and you learnt from it, that's what matters.For example, if you're doing a hand study to learn how to properly construct a hand, and its anatomy, who cares if it's 1:1 to your reference material? So long as the anatomy is correct, and you learnt how to better construct the hand, that's what's important.
>>7754701yeah, it's good to try your best and try to match the reference as a beginner, it trains your observational skillslater on, it's better to actually design rather than copying the reference exactly how it looks, this helps a lot when you start creating character concepts

>>7754714a painting i did months ago, nowadays i pretty much just study NSFW stuff
>>7754701>Unless the point of your study was to train your eye and copy something as closely as possibleYeah, that's an important part of the learning process. It'd argue eye/brain training is more important than understanding & interpretation in the beginning.
>>7754687>think I referenced a study with bad accuracy - exaggerated some features for fun>disappointed in myself>overlay image just to make sure>it's pretty damn close
>draw a body>looks good>come back an hour later>looks like chris chan drew it
>>7754917Instead of waiting an hour just flip the image
>>7754947I can't handle the mental blow
>>7754687if it made you feel good, then that's what matters, of course, if you noticed the difference too, then that's just as important because it's self-awareness of one's work
>>7754907>overlay the ref>it's so close I'll get accused of tracing>don't upload it
>>7754714>>7754721>"PYW!">They post their work>Pretend the interaction didn't happenWhy are pyw posters such pathetic flaccid losers? You could at least compliment their work and admit they have the skills and authority to back up their comments.Or, hell, comment on why you think their work shows they DON'T have such authority.Just not saying anything when someone meets your challenge is just so fucking weak.
>>7755515This is /ic/, we don't post artwork or critique here we just shitpost and goon to naked models
>>7755515All they want to do is snipe from the sidelines. Their demands were never serious from the start.
>>7755515euhmmmmmmmmmm. uhhh. well. pyw
>>7755515the last time I posted here i got called a low-mid beg :(
>>7755797Congratulations anon now you're low-mid
>>7754687Observation is hard
>>7755797i see the shin-ichi sakamoto influence, tho everything outside the face being so sloppy really drags it down, if you are not gonna properly texture n detail the hair focus on at least giving it a good outline n keep it pure white for negative space, the scribbly shading on it is jarring
