How do i give my drawings a better sense of badly hurt character with a mixed feeling of despair and bravery without resorting to gore/blood?
Whenever I see you motherfuckers making amazing drawing with just a mere wobbly lines I unironically wonder why tf do i even bother
>>7805844If it's any consolidation I draw with wobbly lines and still suck

>>7806031i welcome you superior brownline user
I don't even know why I bothered mouse-painting for years instead of just learning traditional art like a normal person
I feel like if you dont have a innate sense for accuracy you are just doomed to be a permabeg.
>>7806022hot
>>7806065You're making excusesAccuracy is something you can improve with practice
>>7806070No it doesnt get better. I just learn more crutches and hacks to make up for a utter lack of talent.
>>7806074You might be retard
>>7806077Yes. Talentless.
Hey guys, first post on /ic/ Started to draw a little less than one month ago, someone gave me a cheap tablet 10 days ago so I started drawing on the tablet. Also I started shadowing and coloring since I was fearing this in my first 20 days.Here's some of my drawings : 10 days ago : https://files.catbox.moe/v2gmjd.png7 days ago:https://files.catbox.moe/4ogx99.png5 days ago: https://files.catbox.moe/n0a1fo.pngAnd I draw picrel yesterday. Any tip would be cool! I really struggle even drawing straight lines, like really, I feel like something is wrong with my brain: https://files.catbox.moe/5cwgns.PNG
>>7806082You're making great progress. Being able to commit to a drawing is your strenght. Keep up the good work.
>>7806082nicecopying simple drawings from your favorite artists will help you a lot in this stage
>>7806094What I did for the few drawing I posted was trying to recreate a pose from a real picture, but with a character that I like Here's what I used for the last one for example
>>7806101>>7806082LMAO I THOUGHT YOU HAD MANGLED HER ARM BUT SHE LOOKS LIKE THAT.
>>7806101ew wtf
>>7806104Nah you're right it looks mangled, I fucked up something RSWS >>7806102Well, I want to improve! But I know that the best way to improve in something is practice so I'm just drawing. But I posted here to see if people had tips>>7806105she's qt what do you mean ew
Whats the best way to practice the accuracy of my strokes on a tablet? I'm having a hard time with putting lines where I want them to be and I can't draw circles at all.
hi, ive never posted here before but i want to learn how to draw anime smut because there is not enough that i enjoy anymore. >inb4 aiai has weird contrast shadow things going on it will cost money and its only best at drawing whats most common anyway (for now).uhm where should i begin then? reading through the links rn and some videos.
>>7806104kek same. I was going to criticize his proportions but he actually did a pretty good job
>>7806113draw on paper and buy a scanner
>>7806114just be yourself dude
>>7806113you can use something like pic relatedbut just drawing would be a better use of your time
>>7806029i can't read shit unfortunately but cool
>>7806062nta but I feel like such a basic bitch for having a catsona lmao
ey yo
>>7806113I've been drawing and tracing over cars and vehicles, though I'm unsure how useful that'd be for drawing circles bar the headlights.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>7806114draw and finish your smut>ask for crit>fix them>do some fundamentals grind on the side>repeatdon't forget to have fun (most important)
>>7806136>Those tits are a bit much dude. How about you do some fucking realistic proportions?i will make them even bigger next time haha

Urgh
>>7806370Copying, fundies, and gesture drawing aren't exclusionary. Just do all of them
>>7806370bro just git gud it's literally that easy lmao
>>7806169>>7806220adjust pressure curves and use less pressure.
last few touches before I go to sleep, gn anons!remember, to improve you have to actually draw, not just post and complain here :3c

>>7806171I got banned on purpose for y'all.. you not grateful enough
>>7806465Kill yourself.
The pain of learning to draw is universal
>>7806465I'm not watching the video because I don't plan on giving up on drawing. It's only been 11 days. I'm not even complaining that I'm not getting better at drawing, I just literally do not understand what homework assignments I need to be working on so I'm not just wasting my time.

>>7806617I may be a tranny but I dropped out of IT to do art bs so idk. Last I checked it seemed fine and didn't have anything linking to other docs etc that could obfuscate things. I'll try it out later on a vm maybe. I really don't trust ppl on 4chan 2bh

Man I can't focus at all on drawing rn I feel so sadLike apparently I got banned for asking too many questions or smth but like I'm the only furfag on the server and half of what I draw is weird nsfw I doubt anyone would realistically want to see, ofc I'm going to ask if I can or can't post it I don't wanna jumpscare anyoneLike if I didn't ask I would've probably gotten banned for posting weird shit, and because I did ask I also got banned. Idk. Very sad and miserable cuz I thought I found somewhere to post in and make friends in but ig not. I wanna cry
>>7806644I don't really have any energy in me to bother with this stuff sorry, just wanna cry already. Can't even feel mad. Sorry for not lolcowing today
>>7806642You sound insufferable bro

>>7806223ofcourse
>>7806223>>7806676:3
Honestly it's amazing to be despised by furfags as a furfag xerself, I commend xer.
Im suffering from an extreme case of analysis paralysisAs a beg I have to learn literally everything: gesture, proportions, perspective, anatomy, color, composition, brushwork, renderingI dont know what the fuck to learn, how, or what to focus on.And dont tell me to 'just draw' because thats all I do, nothing but stupid sketches but when the time to add details and try to make an actual finished piece, I dont know how to deal with it, and I dont think im gonna learn shit just by doodling garbage.Im this anon btw >>7805754
>>7806510>likes almost everyone If you aren't in the list, it's over.(I'm not in it)
>>7806688Eh my style is a simplistic cartoony style that's essentially just cobbled together by two much better artists, it's to be expected
>>7806685i was on the same boat, i think what you need is a certain goal, "to get good at art" is nice but it's too broad and may confuse youask your child-self what do they might want to draw? it's probably not hundreds of boxes, lines or circles, try figuring that out then start with that since i think youll get more out of learning fundies if you first make the act of drawing less about studying and more about having fun, btw it's anime girls for meat least that what helped me haha, i'm still working on those finished pieces but i don't have that paralysis anymorei'm this anon >>7806339
>>7806696hows the weather in indonesia
>>7806691Thats a good idea, thanks>>7806696An insightful question to which Im afraid I have no answer. Theres no goal, just wanting to be able to create pieces that are worth hanging on my walls and maybe people on the internet to look at and enjoy.As of WHAT do I want to draw, evidently its THE question to which I dont have an answer.There are some artist that I absolutely love such as Paul Bonner, or Frazetta. I also enjoy Samwise Didier pieces, as well as old Metzen drawings he did for WC2.So I clearly enjoy fantasy, sword and sorcery stuff, and monsters, storytelling and environments.I enjoy refined pieces (without a need for hyperrealism) as well as sketchy stuffWhich then again circles back to having to learn a lot of stuff if I want to create stuff even remotely similar to what I like.LOL.
>>7806644Yeah, unreal.
reilly method got hands
>>7806697it's humid >>7806700you do have an answer it's those fantasy stuff anoni think that and copying artists are a more concrete goal, it's a good start methinksmaybe try to be conscious of just one fundamental at a time while you're doing a copyif you need a direction, out of all the fundies that you mentioned, i think starting with observation, perspective, and render is a solid path cause the rest builds up on those three, just my two cents haha
>>7806615take a chill pill brah>>7806529pro>>7806625the file is too big sorry, watch the videos>>7806688don't read between the lines, most of these are really just subject matter

>>7806784very nice>>7806768at first i didnt register the beard on the right guy
>>7806796thanks friend
>>7806796Yes, looks deformed not stylized. Same with hand. Cool style for sure, reminds me of something I saw in the past.
>>7806114day 1 futa cock miuht be doable in a few months maybe
>>7806114You need to ask yourself what you want actually.Drawing for finished result is one thing but if you don't enjoy process i wouldn't reccomend drawing at all. t's really long process of learning, try and error and frustration. Only if passionate people gonna stick with it, especially in current times.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>7806836getting really clean accurate lines like pic related is the thing im most insecure about. does it just come with like years of muscle memory/fundamental practice?
>>7806168got reality checked by this one>>7806454>to improve you have to... drawAIYEEEE
>>7806837Cope.
>>7806840>does it just come with like years of muscle memoryYeah, it will develop but you need to practice long confident arms or wirst moves with pen
do pro artists with a screenless tablet use stabilizer
>>7806871Some do some don't, it's all preference
so apparently you can cheat out a good drawing on procreate by making a very(think 4kx4k) large canvas cause then you can finetune line straightnessyet everytime i open up procreate i use the animation resolution even though i use fucking sprites

No longer a NEET but I wanna get back to learning to draw, after my job is done I have around theoretically 7 hours left in my day entirely for me, or more like 6.How much should I practice per day to actually improve?

>>7806952drawing on workdays is about being consistent. unironically get up a bit earlier and reserve a timeslot for drawing before you go off to your work. What happens the rest of the day won't affect that time anymore.it's much harder staying consistent drawing daily when you just barely pushed through the day managing to not get fired and not killing yourself and NOW you need to force yourself to learn how to draw hands while the rest of your home screams CHORES and all you wanna do is eat, jerk off and sleep.
today is alarmingly quiet
can someone draw me a gf?
>>7806642If it makes you feel better, we want you here in these threads equally as much as that server wanted you :(

wipany crit or advice?
How is this helping me get better at drawing? 60 second timed gesture drawing for the first time
charcoal
I have not become any less of a beg desu. Learning art is rough
>>7807121Right is definitely more technically component
>>7807103Everything looks fine except the face imo. If you’re gonna take this approach, focus on placing the features correctly . The mouth is where the nose should be, it’s a bit symbol drawn, and the eyes are above the hair. Also try to make her right hip a bit wider and smooth out the shoulder, it’s a tad bit pointy for a female
>>7807124Competent. I'm retarded
kawiwi
>>7807126yeah ill do the face at the end my first sketches always look like that lol
What i do wrong?
>>7807121keep going doode! how much time between the pieces?
I drew today
>>7806133What's your coloring process like anon?
>>7807140>>7807141That's a good face, just a silly oneTechnically where you went "wrong" is with your eyebrow placement. Since your subject has exaggerated vertical eyebrows, you mistakingly put their top at the brow line. Instead it should really be the eye socket. Your eyes are also too low compared to the cheek bones. Personally I suggest getting rid of the eyeline all together and instead eyeball where the bottom of the socket is, which is what Loomis himself does in most scenarios. Sometimes too much structure takes away from the naturality that comes with simply having a feel for where features belongare you following Fun With a Pencil? Or a YouTube Loomis guide?
>>7806114Practice with the basic skills like observation and face anatomy as those apply to any artstyle. Practice with anime girls if you want. Copy studies are great too. Don't get hung up on fancy gear or software - pencil and paper or a low end chinese tablet are more than enough to practice. You don't need a fancy japanese pencil that rotates the lead over a thousand times while you draw, though I don't regret buying one personally.
>>7807159Tldr:Brow line isn't the top of the brow, it's the top of the socket that the row rests onFinding the bottom of the socket using the placement of the top gives you a more natural idea of where the eyes should be placedIt's rare that someone's eyes rest so closely to their cheek bones, they would look more natural parallel to the cheeks divett that you can see next to the ears
>>7806114See>>7805730The first chapter is critical for understanding faces in 3d space regardless of the style
>>7807143I love how you control values, top right looks great

I'm so glad I started drawing when I was younger. If I had to adhere to Loomis like some of the anons in this thread so obsessively, I'd kill myself.
>>7807181this is good rendering, the sense of depth is really goodthe criticism is that even though you didn't finish it yet the flat anime head and hair with realistic size is not fitting the rest of the realistic rendered style.in addition, highlights will make the drawing pop out a lot and when used on skin they tend to make it more sensual
>>7807193nta, I kinda disagree with the lighting thing. Kinda tired of seeing everyone covered in oil.
>>7807191post your work
>>7807194it trends because the audience likes it, you might as well feel tired of seeing big bouncing tits but they will still be appealing to the coonsumers regardless
>>78071424 years apart, I've seen people who did half of that with much better results. I really have a problem with consistency and discipline when it comes to practice.
>>7807195I'm the faggot that keeps drawing in the dbz style
>>7807191I've been drawing nearly every day for months and I'm still a 4 on the loomis prebeg scale aaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAA
>>7807228What in the fuck is this chart LOL
>>7807121>>7807212That image is progress from four years? Did you draw every day? Did you take long breaks? Please don't tell me you drew every day. Please tell me you took long breaks.
>>7807232page 52 of "Fun With a Pencil" by Andrew Loomis
>>7807096probably a better option that the adult "female" models they got.
does reading loomis actually help draw the art you want to draw or only 1940s sunday newspaper comics
>>7807246it doesn't matter because the people still grinding loomis after years won't ever be able to do that either
>>7807246Yeah but you need 100+ IQ so you can apply the concept he teaches to whatever you want to draw.
>>7807248im not the people grinding loomis for years and that isnt an answer to my question>>7807249thanks
>>7807103Hey, it looks great but mouth that high gives a bit cartoon feel to it. Idk if it was your intention so i just makeher with standard proportions. Also head could be a bit bigger and neck more thin.Sharp edge on deltoid can work but you also need to keep sharp edges on whole figure to keep shapes in shape haha.A little curve gonna make it more soft and work with other curves on figure. Hard shadow on breasts is a bit too strong, gives feeling that her right boobis getting in to volume of left one.>>7807154Smudge and hard brush, some photoshop magic like saturation, masks contrast and hue shift layers. Little gradients too.
>>7807246Loomis doesn't really cover style at all during the fundamentals. It's purely about structure in 3d space which is necessary for all art
>>7807239I regularly took long breaks but I also had several intense phases of practice that would last for weeks to a couple of months where I do figure studies exclusively. It wasn't really efficient since I am not too autistic to grind consistently
>>7807246Probably just none of the above. I've only seem him in passing mention, but you're *supposed* to be able to take the "laws" of art and tweak them to your liking. If you know the rules, you will be able to more appropriately break them, instead of starting off as a complete rebel and thinking your shit's hot when you're actually clueless.... in theory. In theory.
how the hell can i properly learn the proportions and spacing for the face.......does everyone always start with the rough loomis circle whenever making a face? i dont mean as practice, i mean in your actual drawing...then erase it after?
>>7807262Yes. The spongebob meme is in fact how most of us draw (in reverse)
Is it over for me?
>>7807267I won't know until you post your work
>>7807165I like this!
>>7807269I cant draw anythin good.
>>7807275The point of /beg/ isn't to already be good at drawing. Post what you got and you will only get constructive criticism
>>7807262yes you want to construct the whole head first lightly and then draw the actual features on top
Started drawing art featuring multiple people. Here’s my OC (middle) with the OCs of 2 of my friends. Took inspiration from cool SOTN key art.
>>7807287Dire...
I was thinking about tracing pictures as a way to practice muscle memory so I can draw long lines (the ones where you have to move your across your tablet) accurately and in one stroke. What do you guys think? Could it help?
>>7807287loomis
>>7807289You're probably better off just drawing and gaining line confidence naturally
>>7807289Yes. This is absolutely helpful. Especially drawing construction lines over photographs.
>>7807289Do exactly this. Don't listen to anyone else. Practice anatomy on photos PLEASE for the love of FUCK do that.PLEASE
>>7807246he only helps if you already know how to draw
>>7807299post your art or keep your opinions to yourself
>>7807297>>7807298You're all idiots. I'm not trying to learn fundamentals. I just want to stop my lines from looking wobbly. This is not a problem with fundies. I'm just not used to drawing on a tablet.
>>7807299*Loud incorrect buzzer*
>>7807266ok i guess loomis helps alot more when you actually use the circle tech at the start>>7807286any tips for having better expressions?link here looks like... those bored hotline miami npcs lmfaoany please what else do i need to work oni still think the spacing between the eyes is off
>>7807302>asks us for opinions>calls us idiotsSorry Einstein. My bad.>>7807304Expressions are fun; try experimenting with the distance between features and using photographs as references. I use a mirror by my computer monitor when I draw. Though, sometimes my face gets stuck like that...
>>7807306Wait... were you guys being sarcastic or not?
>>7807253Thanks. I'll try to color something smooth like you do
5 minute gestures
>>7806020T.T>>7806510thank you!

>>7807336>SLUGGERlmao
working on the shading rn, not rlly sure if I did the left arm any justice because I wasn't sure if the tattoos looked right with the perspective. I hope it doesn't look too out of place.>>7806466the design isn't mine, but thank you
I may be wasting my time here and not actually doing anything that makes me better at art. Atleast, I can't think of anything doing this is teaching me.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>7807354please stop posting here asap
>>7807354My style isn't that consistent, i'm trying out new stuff so I don't think it's the best study material. I think it'd only make your stuff worse since i'm swapping out brushes left and right, pens and such
>>7807364NOOO ANON, DON'T BE LIKE THIS. Look, I'd rather not share my socials here, but you can enter the thread's discord server and i'll dm you and I can give you some tips and red line your stuff, how about that?heres the invite, just don't be weird and say you came for the furry fren https://discord.gg/vkabpS4Mxd
starting to this /beg/ is actually a dogshit corner of the internet to be if you want to genuinely learn to draw
>>7807373There are some nice people here.
>>7807373there are good people here thoughbut now "it" is back so we are in for another shitshow
I recently learnt of this very very very talented artist who has been engaging with a community I am part of and seeing his unreachable skill level next to mine is starting to make me feel depressed and havent drawn for a bit because of it.Imagine a european Yusuke Murata. He is just that good.
>>7807381can "it" help me upgrade my retard helmet? (learn how to draw not fucked up anatomy)
>>7807368why the actual fuck did you invite it to the server
>>7807387god I wish I could draw like you
>>7807389cuz it's an open place for all nice people <3no matter if you draw popping furries or guro, it's a fren only place and that anon seems like they'd be a nice fren.
>>7807390breh im trash lelbut i do have fun with it. doodling makes me laugh and maybe thats the whole key is as long as it has u laughin then its gud idk mad magazine is like a rly gud thing to spark the noodle into trying weird faces and bodies have u ever read one of those?

Rough sketch. Trying to figure out how to have the weight distributed to make the stepping forward look convincing.
Finished this, it's nice to have a real scanner
>>7806168Probably should've stuck closer to the photo's angle but oh well
>>7807446I remember you Asanagifag. Do y ou have a name?
>>7807446>Barely 5 weeks drawingKill me.
>>7807447Rulean, but I draw mostly futa.>>7807449I've been drawing off and on since like 2017
i've never drawn in my life. i wanted to make a lip sucking a titty but i was too much of a coward to actually make it happen, so i settled down witha a flouting mouth.
>>7807452Got a blog?>>7807458SEXO
Noir, I tried to paint latex but it was so incredibly difficult that I just gave up.
>>7807148It's not so bad. I hope Turkeyday isn't too hard on you, friend.>>7807165Very nice.
I LOVE COPYING, CHARLIE, I LOVE COPIEEEES!
>>7807438Arms killing me. I haven't decided if I want to include the coverup yet, it kind of removes information and I'm not confident in coloring it but maybe it would be a good challenge.>>7807473I like the coloring, it's giving me a pretty good sense of depth. On a strand of hair on our left side there is a fill tool artifact, keep an eye out for those. I would recommend studying some collarbone and shoulder anatomy to get that area cleaned up a bit.
Back to the study cage

how do i draw shoes>>7807532arent the straps supposed to be going inside of her hands??>>7807458you need to step it up with multiple brush sizes
>>7806386
any major compositional issues? any eye sores? just sketched this & can't notice any major issues. don't want to waste 3 hours finishing it just to realize what's wrong when it's too late
>>7807540>arent the straps supposed to be going inside of her hands??d-don't sweat the details
>>7807545Bottom's cock looks like it's upside down
i figured out a few things about shoes>>7807545the doms leg either too short or wrongly foreshortened, doms head is huge>>7807547maybe its the tops cock and its in the wrong place
give it to me straight, anon
>>7807570ill give it to you gay you fucking faggot fucking worthless cunt cocksucker faggot
>>7807570>>7807582I'm sorry I typed that out of hurt and didnt mean any of it, your art is very nice
>>7807253thanks Rax very cool
>>7807159>>7807163>are you following Fun With a Pencil? Or a YouTube Loomis guide?<both>Personally I suggest getting rid of the eyeline all together and instead eyeball where the bottom of the socket is, which is what Loomis himself does in most scenarios. Sometimes too much structure takes away from the naturality that comes with simply having a feel for where features belong<how? what is eyeball and bone checks? I know superficially but not technically.This draw i make at the same time of other. Yesterday I went to bed early.
weird proportions and perspective on some lines are wrong. an attempt was made...
>>7807532What's happening with her knees?
Maybe if I buy a drawing screen I'll get magically better Legit tempted to get q secondhand cintiq 16
>>7807595you won't
>>7807596Maybe I will because its a more natural drawing experience compared to a screenles, duh.

>>7807686PLAP PLAP!
>>7807627Girl mostly and guy hand. Her pose is off balance too. On this pic you screw foreshortening.Your stuff is cool and you got some fundies but you still need more practice. What's your inspiration? I'm like 100% sure I saw comic with similar style or something.
>>7807728go off, take him down a peg
>>7805704toots for practicing squishy forms pushing against eachother?
finished her

>>7807764Cute. White void > Gaussian blurred photo btw
>>7807764She's a cutie a fren
>>7807764nice draw but very greenscreen env
i'm getting overwhelmed and having learning paralysis again
>>7807769the challenge was putting her in the picture using the same lighting as the picture. normally id whitevoid or draw a bg myself. next time ill just paint the bg instead of using the pic
>>7807783It's very good
How is my Cid coming along?
Uh..
Ruzzia post something larger than 400 px challenge (Impossible)
>>7807799thanks>>7807808??
>>7807813russianon shows that deeper shadows are needed to match the light setup of the environmentyou did a good job inventing the pink light source, it looks really nice
>>7807813>??photo also have very different fovyou need something small angle
>>7807818>>7807822oh okay that makes sense. ye contrast is difficult. ill get back to it tonight and see if i can make it a little better

What's the best way to digitize my sketchbook art without having to deconstruct it and put it through a scanner
>>7807878Scanner apps on your phone/tablet or just take a regular photo with good lighting and good alignment.
Best place to start an art blog?
>>7807897Twitter
>>7807897Newgrounds or twitter, depends on what you're drawing and your skill level. Tiktok is also good, but you'll need to mostly draw fandom.
>>7807900I so very badly dont want to do that
>>7807905Pixiv then
>>7807897github pages
This is my OC Traflinda. She died in a horrible traffic accident which left the doctors forced to fuse her with a traffic light to bring her back life.
Still working on properly constructing clothed figures (not that my naked ones are much better)
>>7807938how,,, how does she pee and poo?
>>7807822i dont know if this is better or worse lol. i did it wrong i think
>>7807963>i dont know if this is better or worseIt was the same for me. I do not know if this was correct, but I believe what you have done helps.
>>7807985i made a few more changes, i think the only thing still bothering me is the dress looking a little flat. other than that i am happy with it. thanks for the suggestions>>7807963was a little too dark and vibrant, so i toned it down to about half and increased the subsurface scattering a little and kept the skin as dark as in this edit on the shadow side.i need a break from this piece and draw some figgies now
>>7807947see -> >>7807973
>>7807973ZAMN
Will I eventually get it if I keep doing this? I'm trying really hard to make sense of all the shapes, where they would be in a 3d space, and what angle I'm looking at them from.
>>7807973awesome
How do you guys draw the eyelashes without losing the alignment of them? I feel like I'm doing something wrong with my posture but I can't understand what.
>>7807740use the same cross-contour line for 2 different forms
>>7808002No, you are still thinking in 2DEat more meat
>>7807987idk if this is correct in relation to the photo but more edges variation+less reliance to airbrush and more distinct shadow-light separation helps to make it more readable methinks
>>7808002Find a consistent model to use as a base and then apply it to the figures you want to study. Virtually every book/course on figure drawing will introduce you to one in some way or another
>>7807304yea the zelda before and after is nice too...any tips on how to improve bros?
>>7808033i like how you did the dress, that looks nicegood point on the airbrushill fiddle with it a little more before bed
How to improve if I lack any talent?
less drawing and ask more retarded questions in a basket weaving forum
>>7808052oh talent schizo, i missed you
R-r-really?
>>7808064yes
>>7808064no
>>7808052By realizing that drawing "talent" is often just knowing how to think well visually/in 3D (without people having to explicitly guide you there or shove it down your throat) and using that to guide your practice in a way that makes you improve fast and synchronizes your hand to that structural thinking sooner than others. If you have the ability to visually analyze things and actually take the time to translate that analysis to your hands, you will improve.
>>7808052Do you like woman? My father always said me that a man who doesn't like woman is useless for life.
Is drawing on notebook paper good for beg's? The lines make it so much easier to make things symmetrical
I don't know yet how to draw clothes
>>7808106What happens if you want to draw things that aren't always 100% front facing towards the viewer? Those straight horizontal lines won't help you there.
Is this better? I'm kinda losing my mind.
I-i am p-permabeg....

Do you guys ever see art so good it makes you want to despair and give up? I recently saw the art of a really good artist that has me in a slkump.
>>7808177Quite the contrary. I saw this artist on Pixiv who was lovely. He drew even the smallest details, ahh. I want to draw like him someday
>>7808179I dont . I see their works and realize I will never amount to a tenth of their skill.
it was so great without your schizoderails spam
Better than the tranny nonsense.
I am just feeling overwhelmed because I want to get better and seeing others already at the point where I couldnt even dream getting halfways to is starting to demoralize me.So many things to learn and I cant even get the training wheels on.I also found that one of my fav neweish artists was a "AI+CSP ENHANCED DRAWING" slopper and I feel more despair.
>>7808177i do feel bad for a bit sometimes, especially when they're young but when i think about it for a while it's stupid cause i started drawing for my own enjoyment and someone being bettter than me doesn't really affect the enjoyment of mark making, then i just forget and draw :D

>>7808142well fellas nobody else use pencil colors here...?is it just paints and nothing else for color if you're a on a budget?
>>7808270Get a tablet nigga.Or if youare on a budget and want to trad then get watercolours.
>>7808270Didn't see your post. I don't have any tips really, aside from hatching is your friend and maybe if you wanna, scribble realy fucking hard and scrape off excess with your fingers. SuperRaeDizzle is a chick that LOVES colored pencils. Could go through her Youtube to see what she has to say as a professional (?).
>>7808251samefag Didn't have a 3D model on a Switch game so I had to fucking load up the motherfucker in my room and take pics with VR. I fucking hate this era of reference photos but at least it was immersive...
>>7808123Maybe not the best take at it, but I liked drawing it
>>7808271i really love how just pencil/paper feelsi might get a tablet someday but i also want to get a lot better before then>>7808275thank you
>>7808287Amazing
>>7808192
>>7807859wasn't quite happy with it so I went over it again.>>7808207the way you draw belts and cloth bend around her curves is so good>>7808033I feel like the whole looking at glowing butterflies while standing in a relatively well lit area without hard shadows is a bit of a composition issue to begin with. It's such a nice idea with the pink light it's a shame it is forced to fall flat. I would have put her against a large tree, you can still have the sunlight coming from the left that way but you can justify much more shadow on the right and thus have the pink light from the butterflies be more prominent.
>>7808322Didn't mean to reply
Raxav drawing buttplug tails again I see
>>7808347Makes sense why you always misplace the tails in your drawings then
Drawing is fun :)
>>7808385needs more loomis
>>7808396actually I'm starting drawabox on Sunday when my art supplies arrive
>>7808398Ignore drawabox, pick up Dynamic Bible 1 from Peter Han instead. Drawabox is just pajeet's temu version of Han's book anyway.
>>7808401No.
>>7808402Yes.
>>7808401>>7808402>>7808403Sorry I should clarify, I seek and crave the structured, regimental style of teaching that drawabox seems to deliver. I would not get very far with just a single book and no oversight. Plus, I already bought all the art supplies.
>>7808405Nigga the same exercises are in the book along with videos with him explaining it
I don't know how to use lines to depict fire.
>>7808407Yeah but, I want to be able to submit my assignments and get feedback on them from professionals. You can get a lot of advice here, but it's really hard to take advice from people on the same skill level as me or with a totally unknown skill level. Plus there are a ton of conflicting opinions. For example, I was told by someone else on /ic/ to do drawabox because my boxes/perspective suck. Now someone else on /ic/ is telling me to ignore drawabox. See the issue?
>>7807503Going to work on finishing the lineart, any adjustments before I work on that? The hand is messed up but I don't think much will be showing anyways>>7808207Very cute. The tail looks pretty thin but that may be intentional
>>7808411The feet are very, very bad, anon.
>>7808411disclaimer: my skill level is far, far, far below yours. with that said, it does look like she only has three toes on each foot. with that said, I didn't even notice until that other anon pointed it out.
>>7808409Drawabox guy isn't a professional though. His drawings are dogshit. Unironically even Raxav or frenchie would give you better feedback.
>>7808412>>7808414Thank you for letting me know. I thought with this angle maybe just a few toes would be visible since the others would be behind but I'll work on it.
>>7808415His art looks great to me. What are you talking about? Post your art?
>>7808417You have two problems here, I think. On one hand, she could simply be kicking her foot, but the feet are poorly done.On the other hand, she could be standing at an angle right? but even then, they don't seem to line up believably.
>>7808423I'm going for a kick/stepping forward type pose. I'll take a look at some more references.
>>7808411Saw some issues with the drawing, so I redlined it. I didn't want to fully change the pose or anything, just add some stuff that I think would make it better.
>>7808428Thanks! I need to study hands and feet a lot
>>7808431nta There are some great references for studying feet, though you might have to scour through some horrible shit to get there.
>>7807438>>7808411>Trying to figure out how to have the weight distributed to make the stepping forward look convincing.>any adjustments before I work on that?With the way her distant leg is shorter it looks like she is sticking her leg out to the side rather than stepping forward. If you draw a circle with her hip at the top and heel at the bottom it should give you a rough range of motion for a fully extended leg, or put the bottom of the circle at the knee for a bending leg.When we walk, we don't really fully extend the stepping leg until our weight is shifting forward off of the back leg. So you could try bending her stepping leg a bit at the knee. Try taking a few steps while paying attention to what your legs and body are doing. Being aware of it might make you do it a bit awkwardly, though.>>7808423Oh someone got it it already.
>>7807728yeah I need practice, inspirations are old mad house anime, yoji, mignola and moebius. I haven't made any comics for a while so I can't answer that
>>7808450is that dog nigga?
>>7808420nta byut if you can't look at that image and not see the problems then you really are /beg/The woman's neck is off center and should be more to the left based on how the shoulders are drawn. The values and colors pretty muddy. The ground suggests the perspective to be somewhat lower than the center of the page yet the tree and the figures aren't drawn with much vertical convergence. Looks very flat with no soul.
>>7808450How big is his dick in werewolf form?
>>7808287Umazing!
>>7808411this is such a cute character, besides the feet that other anons already pointed out I think the head and neck don't attach that well, its just a very minor adjustment though.disregard picrel I just wanted to draw her
>>7808471You literally made all of that up.>here, study this pedo furry instead
>>7808471Also post *your* art. I want to see how skilled a protege of Peter Han is. That'll convince me better than a drawing of a bunch of anthro wolves taking photographs of naked kids.

I like to make suggestions of pictures my bf should send to me by drawing him doing the thing.>>7808013Thanks anon. I'll try it out.>>7807802Very nice friend. Nice sense of motion in the pose.>>7808142Cute link.
>>7808002yeh keep postan baes
>>7805704More nonsense
>>7808490Unsure if you're aware but the character isn't OC, it's a vtuber, Sameko Saba.
>>7808598I hardly know any vtubers, I figured it was probably a preexisting character to a degree. For some reason thought she had sleeves as well
>>7808596That's such a cool nonsense, dude!
>>7808598she looks like she rims old men
>>7808598isn't she that Gura girl?
>>7807802Cool
critique is welcome>>7808450is the left one monke?>>7808471upper left looks like a little hairless deerman>>7808596i like ur nonsense
bought s10 fe
>>7808644was it worth it, anon? I want to get a tablet as well, not sure if I should get apple or samsung.
>>7808650depends on what you want to use,if you dont care about procreate go for samsung since they are better with file saving shit
I no longer worry if I'm gonna make it, I just enjoy drawing. But I WILL make it as well to be clear.
>>7808650for me yeah, i was looking for a secondary tablet that i can use when i'm outside so i don't really have a high expectation but despite that it handled my pc file really well, i painted that skull in the tablet and noticed 0 lag despite having a ton of layerskrita's godawful ui is another thing though, i'll probably have to get a bluetooth keyboard for this
>>7808678no they just look like random people
I've realized why I hate marc brunets artit's because he symbol draws the female deltoid/neck/clavicle region and it's obviously symbol drawing because if he draws it from behind it looks more "normal" Such an ugly problem to have if you're going to course grift
>>7808682example?
>>7808682>course griftIt's been pretty useful to me. The videos are nothing you can't get elsewhere for free but it's great for giving yourself structure and direction.
>>7808690LONDON?
I HAVENT IMPROVED IN A FUCKING YEAR.TALENTED FUCKS IN A YEAR ARE ALREADY MAKING PATREON BUCKSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>7808687look at anything he draws that's not rendered and then go look at a reference pack of a 3d woman and you'll understand >>7808688YEAH THATS WHY IT ANNOYS MEhe's so extremely solid in every other way and I find his faces lovely but he just has this awful problem with deltoids and clavicle region
>>7808695an example of a female body builder helps a lot of it is the angle of the deltoid and clavicle i think. even female body builders don't really have developed deltoids the way he draws
>>7808690pronouns?
Screentones are fun.
>>7808694>TALENTED FUCKS IN A YEAR ARE ALREADY MAKING PATREON BUCKSAYou don't even have an example of that, stop making up stuff just to make yourself mad
>>7808702pedro/faggot
>>7806564i didn't see the post until now but my honest tip is use pencil really minimally and use a pen as much as you can! i went through a really awkward phase where i just tried to minimize line usage as much as possible and drew just with a pen and it was ugly but worth it!! try line reduction exercises and trust yourself and get comfortable with mistakes, pen drawing means i fuck up a lot but it's worth it for line simplicity to me!! thank you hope this helps

Looks like the one person I told I was going to quit 4chan entirely and did nothing but cry at me over how miserable her life is, sperged out all day on here and people are posting bad pics/nudes of me all over, I assume from the deleted posts. Cool cool. I'm telling you the only real one on these forums is best friend anon, but you guys haven't figured yet.
I'm gonna go draw furry erotica now, if anyone feels like posting shit about me while I'm not watching be aware that I am easily vulnerable to edited discord messages since I cannot disprove myself due to being an already disliked person. Ok byeHave a higher res one of flandre I really like how she looked
you are delusinal evil narcissist

>>7808852I... anon....
>>7808855Try doing any fundies course instead of just drawing random things>>7808852You're that one guy that keeps posting drawing for fun things aren't you
>>7808855If you are doing trad you are going to eat shit and die with doing complex pieces unless you have the tools to make them in parts (light tables, very faint nonphoto blue pencils, strong ink and hand, etc).I suggest you start tracing from manga or furniture books to get a feel for perspective and then try to draw figures on it.You can also start drawing something very simple like a chair or a bucket and then your figure sitting on it.
>>7808860Maybe
A drawing a day from now on. I spend so much time doomscrolling, staying up late and sleeping in, it's stupid to not do more.>>7808706Dawwww.
>>7808872The xppen magic pad is 100% focused in drawing and it is dirt cheap right fucking now because of black friday.You can find tons of reviews for it.
>>7808882Nigga get a job
is it too much to post more than one drawing a day?
>>7808881Anon Wacom is made in china too. The only difference is that the japanese had the chinese steal the technology they were building for Wacom in their own factories, wait out patents and implement it themselves cutting out the middleman. Nowadays you can get really good tablets from the chinese for fractions of the price.
>>7808882Its a fucking tablet.A tiny computer locked in a slab of glass and plastic with a screen that you can write on with a pen.350 fucking dollars. If you lock in you can make it pay for itself with comms.
>>7808877the magic drawing pad is pretty cool and fun to use. the big pro is it being well like an ipad not needing a laptop/pc. things to consider are:1) make sure to get the android 14 version (idk if the previous one is still being sold) because it has pen tilt2) while you get 8 nibs for your pen with the tablet, getting an extra pack is worth, they don't last super long like with some other tablets.it's feels pretty good for the pricet. use it for like 3 months
>>7808898It is standalone unlike the pro 16 so you dont need something to plug it to.>>7808915Really? I found Wacom nibs to wear down really fucking fast compared to xppen ones. I mostly use their felt ones which are designed to wear down way faster tho.
>>7808898the artist pro 16 needs to be connected to a pc/laptop and a powersource that's the main difference. The pros are cheaper + shortcut buttons + larger screen. But you are forced to be alot more sedentary with it. These kinda tablets are more meant if you have a fixed workspace. Which might be exactly what you want. They're different products with similar but still different purposes.>>7808926well "fast" is relative, the screen is matte and does wear the nibs more than a super smooth glossy screen.
>>7808931the cables are gonna be fuckass annoying if you wanna use something like the pro 16 laying in bed. I meant sedentary as in you have a designated office desk in your home which you use for drawing.
hello im a permabeg lowlife heres another embarassing lineart attempt please dont ignore me and give me advice instead
what's the current FOTM so i can draw

my autistic 10 year old daughter just drew this
trying to actually finish something
>>7808993Ugh the talent!!!but seriously she is cool. I have problems with those poses myself

>>7809014its fantasticai generated?
>>7808939great
>>7809016what? no I drew itIf you mean the lineart effect, I lowered the opacity a little bit and added noise to make it look more real. Try it if you want
>>7809021nice tricki ask because honestly, current gen ai could generate that without any prior training
>>7809005Omg you did amazing job, i want to nut to her.You can play with solid dark value on hair and try different options, once it click it's good base to render from that.
>>7808999very cute
>>7808993I wanted to go ahead and redraw your daughter's drawing, since It looked kind of cute, but some stuff came up and I won't be able to finish it so here, take a half baked drawing

pencil and paper just feels so kino to use... but in pictures pencil doesnt come up as nice as it is to see irli dont know if ill enjoy art as much even with all the color resources because of the fake mechanical contact feeling of a digital pen and screen....
Anyone have good youtube videos for practicing faces? Feels like I'm getting worse since I haven't properly practiced in a while.
>>7809098now post the original
>>7809099This reminds me that i have to wirte that novel about older dude traveling with underage girl in medieval fantasy times
>>7809102>i dont know if ill enjoy art as much even with all the color resources because of the fake mechanical contact feeling of a digital pen and screen....Then don't use it. Problem solved.
>>7809110Underage boy who's 18 for legal reasons, you wanted to say.Pedos rope.
>>7809120yea.. but trad color options are more expensive and so much more work than digital art
I've been drawing nothing but dragonball the last few months, but it's never simple studies. it's always got to be some kind of epic group shot poster that turns out shitty. I mean they're not the worst things on earth, but it feels like I should be better at this by now, and in reality I'm not actually doing anything that would help me to improve. I made 9 pictures this year and aside from the improvement I got when I bought a new tablet so that my lines can actually be smooth instead of chicken scratch, I really see no other improvement in things like color, rendering, anatomy, composition, etc. I'm just autistically doing the same shit again and again. And that's fun but it's really unproductive. May as well be smoking weed and playing video games. After this one I realized I don't want to post anything else until I notice some real level of improvement. No more big drawings like this. It's not helping anything. There's no shortage of ideas but when I look at Trunks' arm and that sword it makes me cringe that I made that.
>>7808915why do you keep saging the thread>>7808855believe it or not, drawing extra shit here wont fix the fact that those characters are misaligned in 3d space

is it just me or is his head too bigand why does the pencil look like this...is it because im not pressing hard or its not sharp enough?

>>7809301Wanna post the beautiful fuck's full body? Maybe we can break it down/critique it to show you it isn't as magical as they're trying to make it (or confirm your fears)
im trying to learn colored pencils does anyone have any tips
>>7809303No. I dont want people to know I am crashing out over it.Just imagine a northern european Murata.
>>7809304SuperRaeDrizzle on Youtube; recommended her earlier in the thread.
hallooooi did this recently (picrel)is this alright for 2mins? im trying to get the flow of drawing faces and heads but its a little hardfirstly i drop a circle, its mostly to align other things to. then i draw the head-tilt line, which i think i got wrong here, after that i try to define the brow ridge or eye line, then follow the outer silhouette of the cheek, followed by drawing a mask of the face. then, i drew the rest of the head outline and neck, as well as the hair. finally, i measured out some proportions and drew the nose, cheek-indent thingies, eyebrows and eyes.Is this a good way to do this? i did it in 2 minutes which to me is fairly fast but im not sure if im studying correctly like this.
>>7809309Make the timer as short as possible and use your fear to find out the best method. That's how I did it lol(i am tracing a 3d model in picrel)
>>7809309>>7809311my drawings almost always come out obviously way off when i do this, either that or its just really a basic silhouette of the face and no actual features.i have the same issue with gesture drawing, i cant throw out proportions fast enough to not have to actively observe the reference and doing that tends to take long. im usually good at seeing angles quickly but not lengths, so i can easily tell the angle between 3 things but not the distance between 2. and im not sure if thats the right thing to do since ive been doing it like this and trying faster for a while now with little improvement in that regard. my linework has improved significantly over the last few months and so have my proportions but not my speed somehow. i feel ive gotten better at observing but not actually drawing, if thats the right way to put it
>>7809309Oh my god bruh trying to quick sketch this on a time is the final boss (i took way longer)
>>7809312>cant throw out proportions fast enough to not have to actively observe the reference and doing that tends to take long.Methinks this is the point; you have to figure it out through multiple failures. It took me a few years to figure out what sort of gesture made a difference, versus which parts of the body were a waste of time to depict if they can simply be suggested.(for telling the distance between things, use the negative space! :D )But yeah. There's a handy dandy chart I throw at people, since you're starting to catch on that drawing and observing are two different things. Eveyrthing you're talking about is pretty par for the course when it comes to drawing. You're finding out all of your weak spots. What you're supposed to do now is either ignore them forever or dive head first into making them the very thing you draw for the next several months. Most artists are a one-trick pony (figure out what your trick is), and very few are a jack of all trades (but evolve slower)
>get anxious about the prospect of drawing and I'll put it off for half an hour>start drawing and get lost in the fun with none the stressWhat causes this?
>>7809320This is always cope when your past drawings also look better than your current ones.
>>7809325Being talented.
>>7809280https://files.catbox.moe/y6d3rh.pnghttps://files.catbox.moe/ergil9.png
>>7809234I wasted this much just to end up with a dogshit bad copy of a unreachbly more talented artist.
>>7809336show us the copy
>>7809336Now keep copying that artist obsessively if you want to get faster
>>7809337>>7809338Upon closer inspection I realize it is symbol drawn garbage. Not any close to the original. Just a mockery.I have no spatial awareness at all I AM FUCKINGBLINDANDPERMABEG
>>7809336>>7809347That's it? You gave up after only an hour and a half?
>>7809347Drawing boxes helps with that, have you tried?
maybe i need to give it more space
i tried a 3/4 view. drawing is kinda fun>>7809325this but i get lost in wanting to fix everything and erasing it a bunch of times.
shes so cute i love her so much
Figured out how to photograph the blue pencil. An old solution to a new problem, it would seem (use the refrigerator as a light box)head tilt in the reference threw me off a bit, so eye placement is fucked and I didn't catch it before it was too late to do anything about it. fuck
>>7809291Go to rule34 xxx and type capra demon. It's extremely easy to spot my type
>>7809403the photo of your drawing is much more readable now.Try blocking your vision of one side and then the other of the face you are drawing. when you block one side you can kinda imagine what the rest would look like and with the instant comparison when you block the other side you'll realize you've drawn two face halves sewn together.mirroring also helps but not always practical in trad, if you have a small table mirror you can kinda do it.
i should have never started talking about spatial awareness. i didn't even have bad spatial awareness regarding drawing in the end, i was just being too lazy (and still am). terrible phrasing to have taught the thread

>>7809403You can try playing with scanner apps if you're really anal on getting the best picture. I don't like it for pencil drawings though since scanner apps seem to nuke any subtlety in contrast. I scanned this page >>7809192 with genius scan on my ipad
>>7809542There are scanner apps!?Wowza
>>7809543They're really useful if you want to take a trad drawing and refine it in digital since you don't have to worry about the perspective being warped from misaligning your camera
>>7809542your girls are so unbelievably fucking cute trad-kun the lioness has my heart i would draw her but i can't draw kawaii shit to save my life so is that ok if I try anyway
>>7809545"Size difference" is pedophilia but they didn't even bother trying to give it a coat of paint, they just shipped the pedophilia to main and refuse to acknowledge the pedophilia to anyone who confronts it and I'm tired of pretending otherwise
>>7809546Yeah! I need just that. Any recommendation?
>>7809556Okay and none of that changes what I said
>>7809563Because you're just listing a bunch of unrelated shit which isn't true so that you can post pedophilia on main line the original point was. It even said "tired of pretending," and yet every response you give is exactly that.
>>7809573You won't, that's how, because you're ultimately just bringing pedophilic drawings onto main, labeling it "size difference," and spouting lies and obfuscation when people say "wtf, why is there pedo porn on main." We already killed all the "actually she's a 200yo vampire :)" people and so too will the "size difference" liars be killed.
gee that's a lot of talk about art in this art related chinese basketweaving forum
Tranny drama again
>>7809551>"Size difference" is pedophiliaStraight women seek out tallest men possible, straight men avoid tall women, gay doms try to find the smallest twink and twinks try to fins the largest and burliest guys. If you believe size difference is pedophilia then you must believe that a big majority of the human race are pedophiles
>>7809581More obfuscation, in this case the pedo has abstracted his porn tag which exclusively calls up pedophilic images away from its only meaning to a real world scenario where a man might be taller than a woman. No pedo, because nobody searches "size difference" and receives a random 21yo 6ft guy with a random 21yo 5ft girl, they receive a "totally 18yo ;)" that looks conspicuously like a 9yo getting fucked by a bunch of suspiciously larger "also 18yo" guys. So no, any random guy dating a shorter girl isn't engaging in "size difference" fetish, which is exclusively a porn tag use to hide just flat out pedophilia in plain sight.

Want to get into watercolors. Got a mini-travel set so I can practice/paint on-the-go. Are pic related a meme?

>>7809606most tablets work without issues nowadays, but some are more shilled than others. in /dtg/ we have the resident wacum guzzler schizo, and everywhere else we have people who get paid to do positive reviews on xppen.Personally, they all work. i've used wacom bamboo (old), xppen deco 01 v2 (pen tablet) and I use a huion kamvas 12 (display) now.

>>7809859bro never heard of artistic libertythis is why you're ngmi
>>7809908no wonder your hands and body proportions look off on women, because you are using a mans body as a reference and then try to shrink the masculine features and throw everything off. COPE.
