yay great OP
>>7812747
First time I am trying to colour and shade. Cant say it turned out well but this is still progress.
I drew this.
>>7812737Gonna add clothes now
>>7812737Gonna add clothes now.
Practicing this color harmony thing cause just going by vibes doesn't seem to work for me.>>7812768Cute
Fuck you I’m wont post a picture again until I make the op collage u guys sucks
>>7812776please post
>>7812524My new tablet just arrived today so I decided to recreate this drawing with the new one basing off from the same rough sketch. I have to say drawing in a screen tablet is a fuckton more fun although the result is pretty much the same. Tried to stay as close as the og for a fair comparison that's why I didn't address the wonky face.Something weird is that I'm having trouble recreating the hat, maybe I need to get used to my hand blocking a portion of the screen.
>>7812776>Didn't make into the wall of /beg/>Why even live anymore
so i came to the understanding that coloring the lineart that perfectly encapsulates the automatic coloring is apparently done manuallyi also came to the understanding that i've been begged, time and time again, to post the material which you will be using to showcase the simplicity of the coloring and whatnotsince all these claims have been made, i can only interpolate that it will be easily replicated to a 1:1 standardso please, im waiting eagerly
>>7812785
Thread challenge baggy clothes edition
>>7812793and of course here is the original referencenote: you cannot use the same colors for the body or clothes, as that could easily open the doors for cheatingthe line art must perfectly, pixel by pixel (other than the colors, as they will be different) match the gradients, tones and changes within the newly colored linearti cant wait to see the results guyssince obviously i've been told that turning a b&w sketch into pic related is a piece of cakea matter of tapping the mouse button a few times correctly
>>7812793>>7812796rule 4 dumb motherfucker
>>7812798how is that rule 4 you dumbfucki was explicitly, multiple times, asked to post the sketch>>7812483>>7812475>>7812460>>7811893etcyou offered it out of your own volitionso here you go, you have the sketch
>>7812793>>7812796troll or not you are genuinely funny af bro thanks for the laughs
Made it into the OP!Joy!>>7812746you draw great faces. Especially the eyes. they have so much going on there.I think I commented this before.
>>7812803you're asking anons to do work for freedelete your garbage and kill yourself
>>7812804how is it a trolli was legitimately told, over 60+ times, in the previous thread to post a sketch.i was told it is literally very easily done and that it is, and i quote, a super "basic thing"now you have the sketch, so please enlighten me on the simplicity of it all and whatnotyou literally dont have an excuse anymore so i actually, genuinely, dont comprehend the wholoe knowitall attitude ego thingi am trying to understand the intricacies of the software that everyone here seems to say is very simple to grasp and utilize >>7812793>>7812796
Just when i thought xe's finally gone, another schizo takes xer place, amazing general
>>7812805thanks ! faces are definitely my favorite to draw. i have a wip going on of anons lion girl but idk if ill finish it tonight (it needs a lot of work I don't anime really)
trying to learn how to develop simple colour palettes for pixel art stuff, its kind of fun do you do pixel art anons?
>>7812793>pisses and shits himself for 2 days about lines>sloppily traces lineart on bg that clearly has no lineart yeah I think that's a you problem my dude I think you're a bit confused about what you actually think are linesmight I suggest you watch this video that talks about not using lines? I think it'll help you in your very first digital drawing.https://youtu.be/iwRa5qTnr8o
>>7812827ah so you got linemogged by me and decided to hone in on a literally irrelevant detailyou're not a toddler you can erase the background details and you'll be left with a perfectly presentable piece of linework that you can then use to really show me!!oh wait you never had the intention of doing thatbtw can we please see your stuff pyw
They mocked me
The scum mock me...
This colored pencil shit tedious as fuck I can't lie. Immediately understand why people jump to digital at their first opportunity
if there was only a mod that would do this....>>7812861welcome back !>>7812819i like the way you do the eyes>>7812862pretty tho
Today's reference.
>>7812844I love love love your art style. Is this original or copied?
>>7812862are you using cheap pencils? pretty good if they are
>>7812871thanks!! original, just no named characters
how can you compete against artist females who are also cosplayers? they get all the engagement to themselves
>>7812844>>7812874Got a blog?
>>7812875By drawing them and having them retweet your drawings.
>>7812875i fap to them
>>7812127here anon I drew your oc , I had a lot of fun , sorry it is very messy
>>7812737>OP picThose are good drawings. The begs... they're improving.
>>7812896the collage have always picked the drawings that don't look /beg/
>>7812896>>7812899I didnt even think twice about the OP, now I'm sad I got left out :')
tough drawing
i missed him
What’s the angriest you’ve gotten at yourself for being a dumb stupid idiot who can’t draw and is never going to be able to draw and so you should KYS for being a pathetic idiot

What are some good test to determine how much neuroplasticity you have left I’m 36 and trans but was thinking of taking up art.
The wacky faces will continue until morale improves.
>>7812943Don’t seem all that wacky.
>>7812941>36 and transthere's only 1 left sorry
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Trying to get all 20 of my main hoes on a canvas
>>7812938you, baby
How do you guys do shading? Whenever I try to shade my art it ends up looking like my character has burn marks.
>>7812883>>7812127you inspired me
>>7812954That’s a lot of hoes>>7812944I can feel the form in this one holy>>7812926Tokébec icitte
I wish I had the confidence to try drawing attractive women
>>7812968That’s seriously pathetic
>>7812965aww how adorable
>>7812976Is it? I find that going into a drawing knowing it's something that people are supposed to be physically attracted to rather than simply find visually appealing raises the stakes significantly. I can't be the only one
>>7812876Not really, sometimes I upload speedpaints on TikTok, but that's about it
>>7812989What stakes bro? This isn't a trial by fire. Your bad drawings can't hurt you.
oof
the original DOA xtreme is going to be the death of me.
>>7812998MOGS PERMABEGSCHIZO
I can draw relatively well by just eyeballing stuff and using basic circles/shapes and estimating perspective etc, but it requires a lot of rough sketching before 'hammering down' the lines, but whenever I try to use 'real' construction methods I absolutely shit the bed.
>>7813006Keep shitting the bed until you don't then. You'll thank yourself when you can draw things without a reference.
>>7813006There's no right way to draw. If that's actually working for you nobody will correct your strategyNow post your work!!
>>7813010>You'll thank yourself when you can draw things without a reference.PYW FAG
>>7813013Already have. I'm not trying to throw shade and you can draw however the hell you want but this just seems like a method that only works with a reference in front of you.
>>7813015Link it then
>>7813016>>7812792>>7812931Are you actually mad that I suggested working on a skill that can help you?
Rough sketch. Figure perspective is easier with the mannequin to reference.
books about drawing upside down?
>>7812927yeah
>>7813006Sometimes you have to take two steps back to take one step in the right direction. When you try a new method, often the results will be worse at first. Once you practice it more, you will have a more concrete method that gives you more consistent results so you don't have to hammer down the lines and such.
>start drawing mid 2024>don't draw at all this year>try to pick it back up>strugglingit's been a few weeks. not even mad at myself for quitting (work) i'm just baffled at how hard gestures still stymy me. how can i get good and dynamic like this?
>>7813028There aren’t any I bet
I failed.
Got bored and drew some of the girls from Monogatari from reference. Time to finally read the Loomis book, I suppose.
>>7813051find the upside down book.>>7813052artist are surprisingly comformist.
>>7813051Every single day, go to one of those quick pose sites from the OP and do anywhere from 10-20 quick (1-2 minutes max) gesture sketches. The focus should be ENTIRELY on capturing the action and emotion of the poses with clean sweeping lines to suggest the major focal points (spine, should/pelvis alignment, etc.), anything else is secondary. You can use that as your warmup before you get into drawing whatever else you want to do that day.
>>7813010I think you're right, I should practice construction for figures more often to be able to build figures without references.>>7813011here's a recent unfinished work
What do you guys think of my stinky flower?
>>7813051Gesture at your level is the equivalent to chicken-scratch. Do dynamic sketching first before attempting gesture so you have better grasp of form and line control.
>>7813065pyw
>>7813089You guys crack me up. I'm far from good, but that doesn't mean I don't know that if you want to get good at something you have to practice it.
>>7813051hide channel on youtubethat's all
>>7813021Slightly less rough sketch>>7813062Nadeko <3
>>7813092nta but you just proved my point>>7813086
>>7813103What point? That you should avoid gesture until you can churn out fully accurate figures in 1 minute? I call bullshit. I'm not telling him to ONLY do gesture, just incorporate it as part of his routine. Yes it will be messy at first. Yes not every 1 minute drawing is going to be a masterpiece. That's not the point.
>>7813098Still looks flat.
>>7813106If you don’t learn how I say you should learn then you won’t learn.
>>7812775>>7812937Thanks!
>>7813106these fucker art teachers are very convenient in their job. also nothing ever does accurate figs in 1 mins. not even AI.>>7813130>>7813064i learn. it's in some other way hypocrates didnt write. but it's in a way your seminar said to believe in, but didnt do.
>>7812793People begged to showcase line coloring to you? Nah, you're a liar and a schizo. You're making shit up. You do not draw and probably eat shit for fun.
Practice feels nice before sleep
>>7813142Very suicide inducing. Nice.
uhhhhhhhhhhhh
I fucked up tonight's practice suminasorry.>>7813142ropepilling
>>7813137...ill try being quiet, but if you dont get what alchemaniac gotten...guess we alr know what its all about.>>7813146this but for upsidedown
Proper skill seems so far away, I want to draw and animate so bad bros...Should I invest on a pad soon or continue with notebook/ballpoint pen for now? Right now I'm practicing(?) drawing lines and shapes and sometimes whatever comes to mind but nothing really looks as good as this one yet
I wanted to try something with warm colors this time >>7812883>>7812965These are great, thanks! I'm happy you like her
Need to catch up
>>7813168a pencil with an eraser might be a good investment>>7813173those look pretty goodcatch up to what
>>7813175>catch up to whatI want to get good at drawing heads so I'm going to draw 1000 of them, starting with 100 in 10 days (Dec 8)
>>7813175>pencilI don't get it, what's wrong with pen?
>>7813189Nothing. It's actually ideal for beginners since it forces you to make confident lines that you have to commit to
>>7813195is it? on average erasing is hard anyway
>>7813173take it easy
What's a style worth studying/copying for begs

Is the guide from the board sticky good or just a meme?
other than excusing (through) orthographic flatness what else to do to improve rendering and realism of a pictureRendering mostly. in science
>>7813086Where the fuck did you see chicken scratching in the pic you are replying to
>>7812869I'm gonna need the source of this priestess, sir
Ideas to make her look more interesting or do you think of cool things to add? I want to make a nice design so I can practice that character in different angles. My current idea is that she has some kind of biological suit and has claw hands for fighting.
Where are the best resources/images of cubes/spheres/tubes/basic shapes from all different angles, etc? I need to see if mine I'm spamming are accurate or not. If I keep spamming shapes, I'll get better right, bros?Learn shapes to see in 3d > construct images from both imagination and images/objects to copy > make sure to capture the dynamic spine-line pose first before making the 3d shapes for proportion > once proportions and general overall shapes are established, then fill in details (follow and measure the distance between details if copying an image/object) > ??? > good drawing??
>>7813170
>>7813233mmm hair vents
>>7812793>>7812796>>7812807You are a troll and your question has already been answered
>>7813228>>7813228your problems get better, but the other person may not. even if the brain is split in the middle, axing it without splitting the nerve either, remains fatal.
How do I rotate a head? I'm using Loomis fun with a pencil... The frontal drawing came out OK, but the profile drawing looks like an old man. And the hair doesnt make a lot of sense there either. What did I do wrong? Is there a better way to approach this?
>>7813249>What did I do wrong?The biggest issue is the jawline. The jaw should continue up to connect right behind the earlobe. Yours connects at the back of the skull.Look at page 37 and compare the profile head to yours.
>>7813249mostly the proportion of the skullthe head is wider in profile viewgrind the cartoon heads first before doing real life photos
