>>7812257I enjoy that kind of angle
>>7812276who drew this?
>>7812280Jagayama Tarawo
my first gay art
I combined two versions of my other drawing into one.And I finally started learning how to draw sweat.
Is 4chan gay?
how 2 make my art more appealing so people will actually goon to it?
I’m not going to post another picture to this shit general until one of my pictures makes it to the op so fuck you mother fucking faggots
>>7812550>Only wants cloutngmi
>>7812224Is this the best quality OP collage on /ic/ now? Looks great.
the cock did not come out well and is really too big. Also, I fucked up with the skintone
>>7812660grayscale
>wanna post NSFW>sometimes dangerously cheezy for /ic/>my main (Pixiv) doesn't allow NSFW>Don't want to convert my Twitter Account to NSFW when I rarely make itWhere the FUCK am I meant to post my smut? People act like porn is ubiquitous for artists yet I can find a single fucking place to post my shit that had actual people on it
>>7812550Best of luck anon. You gonna make it. Don't stagnate. My art never made it to OP.
I have suffered and now you have to.I drew this when i was high watching a movie.
>>7812748I don't think it makes much sense to give her those ring-shaped highlights considering that she's lit from what looks to be a standard spotlight
>>7812293good stuff, I've been trying to find artists with similar quality to study, but it's hard. 90% of art is trash, or something I don't need,
Practicing digital coloring techniques
>>7812666Am I missing something? Pixiv has tons of smut.
>>7812490not gay if it's futa
>>7813008>tons of smut.low quality
>>7812666Do you want it to be a super popular platform or just stable one? Because if its the first you are fucked, but for the second one Hentai-Foundry just kinda trudges along and doesn't give a shit - problem is if you want engagement you would need to be pretty damn good at what you do to get comments.
>>7812535op certainly is
>>7812666make another twitter
>>7812666You can post censored version to Pixiv and then list in your profile more lenient sites you use, like for example E-Hentai, NewGrounds and so on. Don't type: "Uncensored version here" instead just type out the link in your profile without saying what it's about. People know how to check whether you have lenient sites listed.I dunno if >>7813070 is you but when people help you, you don't talk back at them.
>>7813008censored, so what's the point?>>7813161>E-Hentaithat's more for galleries/piracy though>NewgroundsIs that still alive?>youit isn't
>>7813174Stop talking back. E-hentai requires no signing in so it's great place to host all your art because everyone can view it if they know you hosting one and big official sites demand censorship.NewGround is smaller site and not as many users as Pixiv and DeviantArt but their censorship policy is more lenient. You need to start to realize different people use different sites and your take on the people and sites might be incorrect.My last reply because I don't like to help people who kick and scream against being helped despite them first asking for help.
>>7813179Why are you assuming I'm the faggot you're mad at and not the original poster?God, just chill the fuck out dude
>>7813037it's not futa though?
quick sketch
>>7812724hey, this anon draws exactly how I imagine myself drawing if I was good. we're even using similar no lineweight brushes. do you by any change use drawpile as well? do you have a blog? any guidance for a perma/beg/?
>>7813361no, hold on, I self-pitied too hard. I'm not a permabeg
>>7813363You're a fucking int you mongoloid. Stop larping
Uuuhhhhh finally made a kind of presentable backgroundNow to make like 5 more and also to make them better and better. Practicing something that is not naked girls is hard. Kill me, koroshite.
>>7813363I’m permaprebeg.
>>7813361>any guidance for a perma/beg/?I am myself a /beg/. I think you have a much better grasp on art (especially as it concerns conveying appealing forms) than I do. I'd say that whatever you're doing, you should keep doing it. I'm sorry that I can't be more helpful.>do you by any change use drawpile as well?I'm too nervous to draw in front of others as I am right now. Once I get better, I might join the Drawpiles that I've noticed people sometimes host around here.>do you have a blog?I use @super_acca on twitter. and you?
Warmup. Does drawing this make me trans/gay?
>>7813910
>>7813972What should I do to give this a little extra flair? It feels a little empty.
>>7813260correct
>>7814064a second person, or story elements?>>7813910no, it makes you an anon who draws hot shit. carry on.
>>7814116Hmmm.. Like what? Maybe I can add some text? I think it may be a little too late to add a second person, also these are from solo male BDSM slave pornos with anal hooks and estim :'D
>>7814116Oh and thanks.
>>7814172np!>>7814169yeah, text would add some interest!btw, playing around with spotlighting or different dynamic lighting scenarios on the 3rd figure might let each of the 3 frames add new information for an emotive atmosphere, if you wanted to change things up but add no props/figures not already present in ur ref vids. the first two have pretty dynamic lighting but the last’s a little clinical.but yeah, text’d could definitely work with that, maybe for example like this: “wednesday, december 3rd: respiration quickened, subject appears to…” or something like a log of jotted notes in a file with attached photos of this guy by a sadistically detached narrator.stuff like that can make us viewers stop, interact with your art, and become more invested :3
>>7813282This pose was bothering me so I took a stab at it without reference. I regret this because you probably won’t gain anything from this because you’re doing a cartoon style. Whatever. I’ll post this anyways because I spent time on it.
>>7814222oh lol or maybe even to go farther with that example paint a file sheet with three photo frames fixed to it mostly filling the canvas with a bit of a shadowy dank interior space revealed around the edges of the paper and canvas frame, said paper being held up by a gloved hand, (easy to paint since you could use your own hand as a ref-for meta laughs) or u could even paint the paper being actively written on on a clipboard (earlier photo-log/labelling possibilities?) so four new elements to catch the interest of the viewer:>1. hinted interior space>2. hint at the author of this poor guy’s predicament, in fictionally and irl at once>3. log notes which hint at an unrolling narractive placed in time. -were there past subjects? what will happen to this guy? will there be future ones?4. prop - with this file/paper/logging of clinical notes we suddenly make the guy and his tormenter into characters in interactive roles, one an uncaring pseudo-doctor, kidnapper or ??? baddie and the other the tormented imprisoned fate unknown subject in a line of them>sorry just a rapid stream of consciousness braindump, use ^whatever you like, i love your work so far
What do you call it when the breast makes these waves and how do I master it? (Not my work).
>>7814336Shading?
>>7814336Are you talking about the lines used for the top of the breast or the shading?
>>7814336This is mostly shape design. The guy added lightsources left and right so that's why it does that. Not entirely accurate imo, but looks good.
>>7812224this is by far the most /d/ commission I've worked on
>>7814492>I want a butterfly with 2 barbed horsepenises to fuck me
>>7814492The anatomy of the crotch area is completely wrong here.The top penis is coming out of her stomach/chest.You should position both penises much much lower than this.This whole thing is way above your abilities imo.
>>7814585I agree, original sketch had both cocks much lower, but client wanted them higher - and the size is much too large for me to be able to keep it somewhat coherent, I tried to make it seem like the upper dick is pressing against her abdomen but maybe it doesn't read that well. Either way, regardless of the subject matter, it was rather challenging and I think I pulled it off rather well for whatever flaws it may have. Cheers, anon
>>7814612This looks much better. I think there's also the issue that this anatomy is very stylized (in a good way btw) and the fact that you're covering it with her arm doesn't make you any favors.
>>7812224Has anyone made high quality early season Pokémon hentai? For example, Sailor Moon has the Sex Pistols Doujin. Asking before I go after this as a project
>>7814681Oh almost certainlyPokemon has loads of good hentai of it already
>>7814492It is very good anon. Both content wise and technically.How much?
>>7814492uoh like it #nohomo
>>7812224picking up an old piece again, trying to get more WIP finished.
>>7815160I charged 120€ for this illustration, which is the general price I work with for this kinda stuff. I'm working on getting a Patreon going and then maybe I can increase the price a bit.
>>7814612It is way too common to have something that looks good to an artist's eye only to have to change it on a client's whimCheers anon, a finished picture is a good picture
>>7815348Hmm, do you use normal layers for shading and coloring? Or do you use multiply? Do you have any easy to remember tips and tricks for overall shading?
>>7815399I started using hard light for both highlights AND shadows. Any other effects too like blush, nipple color, atmospheric depth light, subsurface scattering, etc. Hard light is really versatile. As for the brushes, I use a combination of brushes with Color Mixing (Blend) and Blending Mode: Compare Density.
>>7815348Would you post any of your construction/sketches for this?
>>7815495Sure.
How many heads tall do you all make your characters?
>>7815934never have thought about that
>>7815934I make a head and adjust until it looks good.
>>7816097i hate this world i need to kill myself
>>7816108I inflict these images upon you because I need them out of my own head. Inherit my curse, fool
>>7815946wtf did I just see...
>>7816097wtf did I just see 2..........
>>7816097i unironically kinda like thismore?
Can somebody please help me fix the woman's head/neck/back? This looks really off, and if I draw it like I see with 3d models, it looks like she has some sort of gross, lumpy neck, hence me positioning the head lower, so there's definitely a stylisation lesson to be learned here. Also, is it possible for me to keep that almost-profile, slightly turned angle of her face, or do I just say fuck it and just do profile?
>>7816198I think her head's a little small for the quasi-anime style you're going for
>>7816200Very likely, yes. I did wonder if it was, I was just afraid of giving her a big man head.
>>7816201well be more afraid of giving her a big man body
>>7816205Shit u right.
>>7815403Noob here, when it comes to blend modes, how do you deal with multiple brush strokes? I've been always confused about how you're supposed to deal with that, is there a way to "lock" a stroke so it doesn't compound over multiple brush strokes? Say keeping a consistent value/color over a shadow area? The only way I know of is doing it in a single pass without lifting the stylus, but is there a better alternative for this?Also, what kind of brushes lend themselves better to use blend modes?
>>7816246That's exactly where the Compare Density comes in. You can use it to both paint and erase. For example, if you have your main shadow at 50% opacity brush (using CD), then you paint over again, it will never go above the 50% opacity on additional strokes. Likewise, if you want to paint your second pass of shadows at 80% opacity using CD, you can still use 50% opacity CD eraser to erase it back to exactly 50%.You can then further mix it up with more traditional Color Mixing brushes when you don't need to work at exact densities, and yet you can still "reset" a shadow to 50% opacity with a CD eraser.
How's it looking? Decided to make a background since most videos on choosing good colors talk about having ambient light. Not really a big fan of the face however.
original felt too stiff so im redoing it
>>7816419Muscles are too tensed up for a pose that is supposed to be relaxed. Her facial expression is a stak contrast to what her arm is doing.You can convey a buff physique without that kind of fake posing.
>>7816463Makes sense, I used a bodybuilder posing as a reference for the pose. Thanks for the critique anon, I'll keep that in mind.How's the rendering? Also is the stylization appealing?
>>7816097
>>7816441I don't like the face in the new one nearly as much.
>>7816732yea i definitely like the face in the old one more
Sometimes when I try to make a piece it doesn't appeal to me at all. I try to change and add to it, hoping it'll excite me but it doesn't go anywhere, or it complicates the piece and tanks the quality. I'm really struggling to channel any actual emotion or lust into my work and it's clear as day.
>>7817071I think the body looks good but the head and face is messing it up, maybe more of the face should be hidden behind the body so the pose looks more natural?
a comm im working on tee hee, what do you guys think?
>>7817435what's tee hee?Looks a bit like Fear and Hunger
>>7817435lol that 4ch guy commissioned you? I talked to him.
>>7817806ooga booga
>>7817806not gay but it moved
I dont know why I default to the most boring possible angles and compositions in general as soon as it comes to making something to share with others. I dont even wanna do second pass over this line art anymore. Any way to salvage this and make it more interesting or am I polishing a cold turd?
>>7817862Me with the boysBut seriously it looks nice, I'd say make the glasses girl licking her leg
>>7817806tachi my friend, when are you going to come out with an OC with some character arcs so I can draw you copius amounts of fanart?
>>7818023one day...
How's the market after AI? Still possible to get commissions? I kinda gave up on posting on social media when everyone started spamming AI, it was really soul crushing.
>>7819489Only AI grifters getting commissions are the ones pretending it's their own artwork, and given the twitter witch hunts against AI artists they don't last very long. I'm getting more and more comms since I started doing comm work last year. Most commissioners are happy to pay for human made work, and the gooners AI generating porn are the kinda people who weren't gonna commission anyone anyway. Getting custom-made art, erotic or not, has always been a luxury item and the people who can afford that will always be able to afford that. Don't give up anon, keep drawing them titties.
>>7819491Thanks man I needed this.
>>7819496I'll echo what the other anon said. In fact, in a way AI has kind of been a benefit because all the people who would have been begging you for free art are just generating it instead, so it gets rid of time wasters. The people who would commission still commission.
>>7819766Is that a femboy?
>>7819770yes. post yours.
Which way around looks better? I think the face reads better in the right one, but it also feels a bit more disorienting than the right.
>>7819766Delicious, post the ref
>>7819868right one. not sure why though.
>>7819868The left looks better to me. The right one makes me feel like my head is upside down.
>>7819868I like the left, It looks like she is getting railed into the floor by the tentacles
>>7819895>>7819908>>7819909Thanks guys
Any fixes I should make before lining and coloring this?
>>7819781I have none, sorry.
>>7819959the boobies could follow the curve of the ribs a lil bit better, draw the pecs underneath
>>7820058I think you are right, I need to draw them a little bit lower especially the right oneBetter? Maybe a redline would help I have trouble with small boob placement
>>7819959The body parts lack G I R T H.
>>7819950The shading, while looks 3D in isolation per body part, looks pretty flat when you take the whole body into account. The edge control of the lighting is also insufficient; the sharp parts of the shading aren't sharp enough and the soft parts are not soft enough, everything is kinda stuck in this homogenous medium soft shading.
>>7820348I can't say I 100% understand what you mean but i'm definitely curious. When it comes to the soft parts not being soft enough I assume you mean the fleshy bits shading is too blocky.
>>7820403NTA but I think >>7819950 is comfy. The hair falling down behind her feels bit too sticky/rigid and doesnt flow as much as I liked but I don't know if it's deliberate choice.
>>7820413Yeah a few people have pointed that out now and you're definitely right with the hair. I did the sketch a while back but i'm pretty sure it wasn't an intentional decision. Looking at the character ref it's definitely not how it should be at least. Definitely something to keep in mind going forward.
>>7819868You're too zoomed out. Think about what the purpose of the illustration is, what do you want to say. Think about what you need to show to express it. If you want it to be sexual why is she taking such a small part of the canvas. Why are you hiding the insertion. If you want the expression to be the focus why is it so small etc. why are the tentacles taking up 50% of the canvas, and why is the other 50% empty. Come on, do another thumbnail and make sure the composition makes sense before even starting to draw out the figure let alone the expression. Do some iterations first and try to improve on them before you commit. How many thumbs did you do before settling on this one? I'd guess 0. Come on bro you can do better.
>>7820336I don't want it to be girthy, I want it to look toonyPanty is really thin, and I want to draw her thin
>>7820647That's not what I meant. You can draw her as thin as you want, but the body should still have some consistency with the shapes and surfaces.
>>7820677Oh I don't know what you mean, it is in its messy sketch stage and I usually pad it more when liningI don't know how to take your feedback because your drawover was not how I want my art to look, I took the other anon's advice on my chestIf there is a different description of how to do it I will try to follow it. I might just end up finishing this and then seeing from there, I think by the feedback this pic really was just not good enough
>>7819950I think your shading is superb, really it is the hair that needs a lot of work, it needs to be a bit flowier even if stylizedThe shading makes the body look bouncy and detailed
Cat shenanigans in the works
>>7820507>Think about what the purpose of the illustration is, what do you want to sayWell, it was just a quick pose study that I played around with for a bit over an hour, so I didn't really wanna say anything with it lol.Thanks for the critique though, good points about the composition especially. It's good to be reminded cause I didn't think about it at all for this one, but I probably should, even when it's just a doodle.
>>7812224Working on this
>>7820723Fucking hell those are some clean ass lines. Blog?
>>7820723Hot
>>7821247https://x.com/JADF_
>>7820427Ok, compared to the reference, your pic has the hair clumbed in narrower area while in the reference the hair flows more to the sides and hangs lower. It still looks bit sticky/rigid in the reference too, but because it has more volume and width, it looks better.
Testing style, again...>>7815209Wouldn’t using 3D models to place the characters be faster and more accurate? Idk, how do you even arrange so many characters in perspective?>>7816419The colors look kinda too gray. The brushwork feels a bit overdone desu. I’d maybe use a softer brush on some parts like the boobs and legs, and a blending brush with a bit of texture so it still keeps the brush work.
>>7821683I would personally allow the boobs go more into the direction of the gravity and press against each other, creating a straight line in the middle. In the original it almost look like the boobs are held up by an invisible table or some anti-gravity.
>>7814492
I'm starting to believe in static zoom levels. Just have to optimize it carefully.
>>7821683Yeah I can see that about the brushwork, I blended way too much. Gotta lose my fear of hard edges lol. I will try the blending brush with texture. Thanks anon.
>>7821707hmmm, I need to practice more boobs and how squish them. Apreciate>>78218839/10 goon material
>>7821174promising
Contributing to the thread, Crits always welcome I’m still working on my perspectives lol
do any of you ever regret going nsfw?
>>7822545not really, my nsfw work is seperate from my sfw work (effectively 2 different personas) so its not like im locked into porno mode
>>7822545No, I enjoy drawing smut and have met a lot of neat people due to it.
>>7822545no I'm a horny guy who loves to bust
>>7821883Static zoom levels?
>>7822548>>7822568>>7822570i see, thanks for the replies! i'm hesitating because i feel like wouldn't be able to get a creative job with that kind of background, particularly in animation, although that's probably just my /beg/ dream
>>7822582I'm pretty sure Disney has a collection of all the porn their animators have drawn of the characters over the years. Porn won't stop people hiring you unless you're drawing some fucked up shit.
>>7822587that is reassuring, thank you bwo :)
>>7822582just relegate your smut to a largely anonymous online persona if youre really worried, thats what i do
>>7822579Carefully picking a zoom level and sticking to it the whole time without zooming in or out. In my case at 3000x3000 px canvas I zoom at 48.1% on my 4K resolution Cintiq.
i like this so far. any advice is appreciated.
>>7822734Is it meant to be a reflection or second person on the other side? The angle there doesn't work well for that to be a reflection.
>>7822781a reflection. i was thinking that too but i just trusted the reference.
>>7822904Use RL refs.
>>7822568Anon, may I apreciate your art work? it is just for educational purposes.
>>7822960>>7819950This is my art
>>7822915is it salvageable
>>7823013it really doesnt even seem like enough work to try and salvagejust start anew
>>7823015fug
>>7822729How do you resist the urge to zoom in for the more precise lines?I want to keep the whole image in view but I keep getting too autistic how my lines come out without at least zooming in a bit.Not sure how much having the whole canvas in view in another window is helping me.
>>7823026>How do you resist the urge to zoom in for the more precise lines?By being just that precise in the first place that zooming in becomes necessary, though it's a careful balance of just the right amount of level of detail (LoD).
>>7822734>>7823013I think it looks good, anon is being really harshUse real refs though for future works because otherwise it can be easy to push whatever exaggerations they made too far
>>7822545I have a nsfw account and a sfw account but nobody cares about my work.
>>7823102The regrets come when those artists get the "recognition" they were "seeking". They will never know if they were good enough to be proper artists with a proper reputation, instead of being now stained forever, with their nasty nsfw stuck to their name for all eternity.
>>7823138What if I think nsfw is really cool and not nasty and I want to do it forever?
>>7823149Nsfw is not "cool" and it will never be. And if it is not NASTY then it is worthless as a coom product.Hence, you will have to make that choice to accept being uncool and nasty for the sake of your gooning passion. But you will have to be honest with yourself about it, no one will praise a disgusting degenerate, you won't have a family or normal friends. That's the harsh truth behind it.
>>7823157That is like, your opinion man.All I will say back?I love porn artists, I love porn art with sovl. I love expression, I love art.
Comments about the "style", i mean, the face and the proportions in general.
>>7812224Anything you dislike so far? I intend to make it a small 3 panels comic and would rather fix errors here now while I still have time>>7823539Not a fan of the face desu. It's not bad and you can say it's just a style and I would believe it. Just thinking that it won't appeal to a wide audience if you are not drawing for yourself. I like the legs
>>7823539The face seems designed to be intentionally unattractive, like one of those ugly nerdy girl anime designs. If that's the intention then it definitely works.
>>7812224Any advice/guides for rendering cum? Trying to step up my game.
i had fun drawing this
>>7823698accidntly sent the censored one whatever im a stupid ugly chud anyways
>>7823539Looks like a mash between Mossa and KelvinHiu
>>7816822
>>7823959She'd look hot as an OL
>>7823959I really like it, very expressive and loose and appealing shape language

>>7823645It looks like the fingers on her left hand are broken. Also, it would be better if we could see her right hand. We can guess it's being obscured by the plate, but intuitively, it looks like she has a stump with a plate attached.
Well.....

>>7824879I think you are suffering from extreme sameface, I wouldn't have guessed those were supposed to be 2b and 9s without looking at the filename, they look like the same person but with a different body type.
>>7825223Perspective on the boobs and arms seems off, unless the boob is meant to be flying away. Double check with a 3D model

i tried fixing the background so the mirror would make sense. still getting fucking owned by the torso. tips on coloring are appreciated cuz this is looking flat.
>>7825850no cuz i dont know how dicks work
>>7825537Where did her shoulders go?
everyone say hi to Generica Animegirl, her hobbies include standing in a white void and having large breasts
>>7826234i am in love
>>7826204>tips on coloring are appreciated cuz this is looking flat.It's the hard edges. it will look cartoony unless you introduce some soft edges.

>>7826232something like this i guess
>>7826243Looks painful.>>7826234That's quite a different style to what you were drawing previously, also boobs too small.
can i post my chubfag stuff here?
>>7826361Really? I feel like it's pretty similar, I'm just adjusting stuff I wasn't happy with
Anybody care to point out any mistakes in my sketch before I do the lineart?Help with the arms/hands is appreciated
>>7826577Frankly, there's a lot of mistakes. Studying artists/real life people would help you more than any advice will, you don't learn this stuff by listening to speeches
>>7826582I do practice and make studies, but I'm not gonna wait until I'm perfect at it to create. Just wanna know what I can improve in this piece for now while I keep learning
>>7826603faces and arms are the two biggest problems
>>7826603I guess getting rid of that tumor on her right cheek would be a good start
>>7826676respectfuly you sound like a crab
>>7826912Oh yeah well you’re a faggot.
>>7826447From the previous stuff on your twitter, it looked like you were drawing to match real life references rather than going for any sort of anime stylization.
>>7827207Ah, yeah, my painting is more western while my drawing has tended towards more anime-oriented stuff lately
>>7826175Definitely something better than what anon drew that's for sure. Pretty much nothing is correct and the panel flow is a bit confusing and awkward
>>7826577I would try looking at art, real photos on pinterest or whatever you like to use, and try to do sketches that focus entirely on form and proportion, just simplify as much as you can. Just do 2, 3 quick sketches each day, maybe in the morning. Maybe you can trace over the photo ref and draw the big shapes and cross contours after to check for accuracy.
I made this drawing to determine how good i can draw, about how much would this go for if i ever decided to do requests if any at all? or how much for the head only?Any idea?
>>7828502/ic/ isn't really a good place to ask for commission pricing, because usually when people start getting comms regularly they leave this place and never look back
>>7828502Flat and boring art, but I'm more curious why you did a mosaic AND a black bar censor at the same time.
>>7828502I'll pay you 10$ to stab yourself with a stylus. So that you stop drawing this shit. It's fucking horrible.
>>7828502Gotta meet the demand with the price, there's not going to be much demand with your current skills so you have to price low. Demand will be higher if you're filling a niche too. If you really need to charge at this stage I'd say start with $15 for a single character and add another $10 for an extra character, the sort of money people are willing to throw away without much thought.I've been doing comms since my art looked like this and haven't really had a shortage in interested buyers over the years even as my prices increased.
>>7829252you gotta go back to the basics man a lot of your art looks super beg even though you’re really good, slow down and have think about the intention
>>7829252you do everything to make your art sexually unappealing as possible and this work is a great example
>>7829252
damn, anon really wants a reply
>>7829252Always happy to see you post, nice work as always.
>>7829344Kek. Pretty much the same sex appeal, yeah.
>>7829688Are you a woman?
so how do you guys learn to make doujin hentai, man making poses and filling in the panels are rough, should i just study all the hentais i like or what do you guys do, trying to draw porn really isnt the same
>>7829811yes
women never gave me a chance because of my slightly bigger than average nose and all female artists draw jewish porni don't get it
>>7829831you should probably kill yourself then
>>7829832my nose won't let me
>>7829827Are you from eastern europe?
>>7829833can it not get through the noose
>>7829831Theres no way it was just the nose bro. Its the rest ofmyour face too.
>>7829838no
>>7829843I've been complimented as handsome by lesbians.Older women constantly hit up on me.I don't know what to make of it.
>>7829850Very erotic
>>7829894thanks
>>7829851means you give off a feminine aura
>>7829851Are you a manlet? Do you have small hands?
>>7829688>>7829827>>7829945post your hand or feet, sunshine /// ///
>>7829252She fell in love
>>7829344>>7830736heh. >>7829364I felt anon expressed a preference but did not contain specific information for me to take action on. >>7829382thanks, I barely draw nowadays, just trying to claw back some of my drawing muscles.
>>7830892>I felt anon expressed a preference but did not contain specific information for me to take action on.NTA. I repeat, NTA.You guys seem to think there is just one person on this board. If several anons express a criticism, it doesn't mean it's always the same person.Stop being such a snowflake c'mon. I love your art and hearing you say crap like this really lowers my opinion of you. Do fucking better jfc.Also, to help you understand. The girl on the floor has the exact same sex appeal of the frog that OTHER anon posted.You paired huge unrealistic boobs with a body of an undeveloped 10 year old. No hips, no thighs, no curves, nothing.Do you get it now?
>>7830896i get it,
>>7830896>You paired huge unrealistic boobs with a body of an undeveloped 10 year old. No hips, no thighs, no curves, nothing.I don't think the girl's body type is the issue. What's primarily noticeable to me is that her body lacks depth, making her look like a deflated doll. I regret that I can't more technically express my issues with the piece, but try searching "laying down legs spread nude" on Google and comparing what you see with what was drawn.
>>7830911this is more useful.
>>7830911In the terms I described the lower body (lack of proper anatomical features) the depth is conveyed quite right imo (obviously it's not perfect, I'm not saying this, but it's in tone with other magi's art and his perspective knowledge).It's exactly the depth a manequin body without proper musculature and fat deposits would look like. I simply used the term undeveloped 10 yo instead of saying featureless manequin.
>>7830892I think the skull is a little cut off here
I need to get better at the "arms up" pose
>>7823157>that's my harsh headcanon behind it
>>7823138yeah I've seen sfw artists use this cope when all they do is rehash meme and somehow think they're hot shit.
Clankers. Back to dynamic zoom.
>>7830892i was just the first reply to that drawing, it was shit advice mb. was trying to say that a decent amount of your drawings have glaring beg mistakes, proportions, weird anatomy, foreshortening, weird skewed faces etc that make it appear that you're rushing. i dont actually know how long you spend on a drawing or if you check back on them with fresh eyes those, just seems like you would benefit from slowing down
>>7832457studies and iterations on anatomy and gesture
>>7830896>You guys seem to think there is just one person on this board.lol you're right, some blindly really believe that there's only one bad person here who attacks them and in other threads too.
>>7833405that's fair enough, and its about 40 minutes, I lose interest for some reason after that usually.
>>7823138>when those artists get the "recognition"I need money, I don't care about useless likes.People don't want to commission sfw, or support it.SFW art is just trash, unless you work for a game studio.>you won't have a family or normal friends.it's 2k26 the internet is your family >with their nasty nsfw stuck to their name for all eternity.show your nsfw scars like medals
>>7833807>about 40 minutesHumblebragging>>7833405>you would benefit from slowing downIt's just the way he draws, he doesn't want to learn from other artists, copying popular stuff. It's just his cringy grotesque style, he makes it ugly on purpose.
>>7833826>HumblebraggingNah, it's just you being a raging beginner that is slow af.
>>7833963that dude draws comics, it takes a lot of time. he said it like everything he draws takes less than an hour
>>7834033>compares the time it takes to draw comics to a one character sloppy illustrationAnon...He didn't say anything that would imply what you're saying.
>>7834200>>7834200>He didn't say anythinghe didn't draw child porn
>>7834679>deflectionOkay.
Pretty happy with how this turned out
>>7817071Laundrymom?

>>7812224There we go, one last reply to finally make this shit thread go away.
>>7834250Cool
>>7836759nice, like the line work. what program do you use?
>>7837951thanks, also here what I was thinking about when I was looking at the shadings, like it doesn't have to be 100 percent consistent or particularly realistic, but consider committee more to a specific direction, because conflicting shadings distract from one another. In some anime they take short cuts but its so minimal its aspect didn't contradict one another. this type of shading reminded me of work by Yasuomi umetsu in their modern incarnations, ignoring weird eyes of his attempt at moe style characters. Its reminiscent of late 90s early 00s digit paint style and it mgiht serve as a good reference for this type of shading.
>>7837951looks really good as is
>>7838164thank you, I use clip studio paint
>>7830892Something like this, depending on what angle you were going for. Do you flip your canvas? If you lose interest in 40 minutes have you tried taking a break and going back to the same drawing?
>>7837951Love her expression.The shading on her body makes no sense though.
>>7838058You do know there's a function to hide threads, right?
>>7838202>>7838464>>7838296thank you for the feedback! i'll focus on learning how to shade and imply volume properlyis there any exercise for that matter that you recommend?
>>7838417thanks for taking the time to do a drawn over, and yeah the flatten skull is a persistent issue for me. Although the way your style the hair gives a different impression of the character than I intended. I wanted to keep it fairly close cropped because it gives an air of austerity. I generally only flips canvas when the pose have symmetrical elements, but I do observe that there is a strong "leaning" to my drawing generally. I do take breaks, but I often just don't come back and start new drawing instead lol
Been working hard to make my figures look less stiff and more free-flowing, as well as working on developing a style for faces, but I feel like I'm running in circles. I've done a few style studies but the progress is slow!! WIP and more finished lines for comparison
>>7812224do you guys have any method for studying expressions and faces or any artists you like for that sorta stuff, i feel like its hard to get the face angles or expressions from studies on model for my art style
Last drawing of the year...>>7819950Good lord. Looking forward to your progress, anon.
>>7812224ayy women
>>7838467traditionally, study asaro head or plaster sculptures, also try simplified value scale studies.
