Thread to study the adult male body. Post your art, discuss artists, and post resources related to the subject of cute guys 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/ 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.
>If you have a question, post your work. Anons cannot help you without it.
>If you were banned from the server, you were banned for a reason. Do not derail the thread to bitch about it.

struggling with this
I think I made his left pec too big compared to his right, but also I keep flipping it and idk...
Like, the right pec would be shorter because of his arm position
but by that much? idk...

Fuck off retards go post your slop in /alt/, same goes for the tards in the last thread too.

Before you accuse me of posting femboys, I invite you to look at the body type I draw.

I draw effeminate sissies, but keeping the proper proportions of the male human body.
>>
>>7771297
Shut up, hoe. I've been posting on those threads since day one. If anything you should be the one seeking my approval.

>my wife
why are you here looking for approval from other women? go back nigger you men isn't cute and this general is not for you.
>>
>>7771487
I like drawing. Drawing attractive male and the aesthetic is completely different depending on the demographic.. I enjoy being able to create something the average female fujo will find attractive despite not being one, is a challenge to my skillset. Plus, I draw for her. She has very particular tastes and pleasing her is very very hard. Having the feedback of someone with a similar mindset helps. I have a pretty decent grasp on the female mind, but their sensibility and attention to detail still elude my grasp completely.

Like I said, I've been posting here since day one, I post in most generals here on /ic/, independent of what they are. I just like drawing a lot, if I got stuck in one the entire thread would just be me posting over and over again. My output is pretty absurd.
>>
>moidsplaining
Don't care. Didn't read. Fuck off to another general already you've failed to appeal to the taste of women just like all the other femboy obsessed faggots that keep showing up here begging for good moid points.
>>
>>7771497
You are quite cute, I like how rude you are. A bit forced, but I know what you are trying to do. Just don't be so harsh on yourself, and I know you are. But is a bit of a waste.

Nahh it's more like an extension of the community than anything. The thread is already generally female-driven but not all women draw men and those who do draw other things too.

That makes sense lmfao. I'm glad it was that instead of fighting. I'm just a fag though so I'll cheer you women on from a distance.

Yeah that was me LOL. I was in the discord for a bit and it was fun but I have terrible social anxiety so I left. Everyone was very nice too so I felt bad lmfao. I haven't drawn in a long time but recently I've been getting back into it. Hope everyone here is doing well these days.

Thanks! griffens sound comfy to draw, I think my mohawk oc would fit as a cockatrice

Very high praise coming from you my man. I appreciate it dearly!

Your boys are always so gestural and solid. I have to resist falling into envy every time I see them.
