Last time, Anon told me my lines were very shaky and I should focus more on that. I've been practicing my line work, and I also want to start shading. I'm sharing the sketch here before I ruin it with shading. I also hope you can give me some advice or pointers on what I should work on more.

thread challenge
>>7816078Nice style and pose, anon. I love it.the eye placement is a little off though. Personally I also prefer when the nipples aren't fully detailed out. - But that's just personal preference.Here's a little edit.
i always get caught up in what book to practice from or what course to watchhow bad of a time will i have if i just draw bridgman books from front to back multiple times? my eventual goal with art is doing stuff like eu5/ck3 loading screens
>>7816075Race: half-elfClass: Fighter/Cleric of CyricWeapon: Flail and morning starWeapon Style: Sword and shield style
>>7816104Good job on the coloring and overall polish but the faces are wonky
>>7816169these are basically old master sceneries, depending on where you are at grinding bridgman can be a starting point. Old masters generally almost all studied from greco-roman sculptures at some point. So bridgman is right up that alley. try to get into painting from life as soon as you can starting with simple still lifes like the clichée fruit bowl, waterjug or statues.
>haven't drawn anything for three monthsit's ogrehow do i get back into drawing? each time i try i feel frustrated, anxious and hopeless
What a whiny faggot lmao
>>7816193Go look for inspiration.
>>7816075that girl on op reminded me of Lily Lunsair, I wonder if she favors anal sex too.
>>7816193Just put the pen down and do random shit, or do figure drawing without thinking much of it, or follow a course where you copy wtv the guy does without thinking muchNot needing to think much is really the big idea here, since it'll get you to start drawing in an uncomplicated manner, and then you get motivation for more complex stuff
Not great but I like it
>>7816220not appealing
>>7816222Sure. I'm just drawing how and what appeals to me most, and this is the stuff I've settled on so far.
>>7816180Try out pixel brush
>>7816231Reminds, me of Yuri Shibasawa from Boy's Abyss, cool pose.
>>7816225she need some braces to fix that absurd underbite
>>7816242But it's appealing.. I did it mostly refless but I did look over this for that part and that's how it looked and I liked it. Probs messed it up though
>>7816247>But it's appealingno
>>7816248Am I drawing for you or am I drawing for me, anon?
>>7816250is that toad?
>>7816252Just a shroom self portrait.
>>7816211looking for an inspiration only makes me feel worse because i get envious
>>78161801 more for the road.

Not you for sure

paige getting faster gains than the threadxannyschizo, its a nice things to see. also make his tits bigger, paige
and last one sorry for spamturd status: mildly polishedredrew the guy on the left's head like ten timeshow do you cope when your brain feels out of creativity or anything? just take a break?
>>7816247>Probs messed it up thoughYeah you did, I agree that you should draw for yourself, just give yourself a healthy amount of leeway to fuck up and a certain amount of curiosity to correct mistakes, even if you can't spot them at first glance or after a week. That chart is very useful thoughever, and I'd recommend keeping it in mind while drawing your characters, in your case keeping the construction lines visible and not letting hair get in the way would be useful. If you have an OC doing the head rotating exercise would be good to make you think about the form of your character, as if you were imagining a 3D model of it.Here's a video on hair, maybe it will help you.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvZuRM45p6M
>>7816290You should do some studies from reference my guy
>>7816286>purposeI do like to plan out my drawing.>how longThat picture took about an hour. It depend on the complexity of the subject.

How to stop every head you do from looking like a circle if it is constructed with a circle?
>>7816334And a 100% sovl
>>7816223amazing>>7816032ahwww likewise :D
>>7816286they look pretty nice, do space them out a bit and it will look better>>7816303beautifull
>>7816337you have to cut off the sides. i noticed in all your heads they look too wide because you dont cut off the sides.
>>7816348Mangafag how do you do your lineart?
>>7816353wdym? i use a vector layer for lineart mostly.
Would it be a good idea to study/trace Yusuke Nakano or is he too advanced for an absolute /beg/?
>>7816337a "circle" is the cranium part
>>7816362wtf is this russia
>>7816348>>7816362You so right. I do cut off the sides though but still clearly I am doing something wrong like not cutting them enough or not making the jaw angular enough idk idk. But I will try to be more careful.>>7816364Huevo
>>7816355R-really? A fucking vector layer?My lines come out all choppy as shit. I recently changed to CSP to use the oh so goated brush engine and presets and shit but I think I am still missing something.Do you use a hard brush with no pressure?
>>7816364"this is not a circle !" picture
>>7816370are you talking about the pic i just posted? its the default mechanical pencil on a raster layer, thats what i use for sketching. for actual line art i use vector layers using real g-pen most of the time, with minimal to non anti aliasing. pic rel
>>7816376>are you talking about the pic i just postedMostly from all the JJK studies you were posting.>its the default mechanical pencil >vector layers using real g-pen most of the time, with minimal to non anti aliasing.Hmmm I am starting to think that it just comes down to not being a retarded talentless subhuman so it is OVER.

>>7816075Damn they make comparing the reference with the sketch look so easy in the videos, I have no idea how they do thatI have PC with mouse and also samsung tablet with stylus but I have no idea how to do it, I guess I have to just draw on copy paper and put the paper on the monitor to see the reference image shine through but it isn't very accurate and needs specific high contrants images :^/

>>7816123Multiple attempts to start it as a gesture drawing. Gave up because I couldn't get it to look right.

i'm back, what happened to permabeg? and deer? where's everyone
>>7816464They all left because a tranny kept shitting up the thread.
>>7816464Fat xannytranny has been harassing deer
>>7816464Where's your work/advice?
>>7816445you just need to match the angles of the limbs to the original more closely. the arm shoots straight out, and you have it angled down. this means the knee can't be placed correctly. the legs are also basically in like a full splits type position so they should flow in one straight (ish) line essentially, until you hit the knee.
>>7816464>permabegWhich one?
Still working on this. It's getting closer to how I want it but trying to get her eyes right has been tough. I will probably redraw the face another time or two to try and get it right. Overall I'm tired of working on this though so I'm going to just do lines soon.
>>7816496Cute
>>7816464hi
>>7816464identify yourself
>>7816496Don't redraw the face it looks perfectThe chest anatomy is the thing off and her head follows that alignment which is why you think the face is offStill finish this for sure because it looks good and improve the anatomy on the next drawing
>>7816503Good shit anon. Love the colors
>>7816503hi qt, nice girls
>consistantly get 0 (you)s on art regardless of how much i improve>see people that draw much worse then me get tons of replieshow do I gain appeal and soul....

>>7816517Ok but where's ur drawing at
>>7816503pudgy faces, I rike
>>7816520I don't want my art (and myself) to be associated with bitching and moaning
>>7816521thanks for noticing, I'm trying to figure out a simplified face that's easy to draw for these more "rounded" ladies
>>7816522and forgot to add last time i posted my work after i got asked to I got no replies so there's no incentive
>>7816062>t-thanks but she wasn't supposed to be dismembered, I just couldn't draw hands...w-w-what?! Oh shit, I'm sorry! I really thought you were going for the amputation genre, so I gave it a try. This is the last one though.. Thanks for the inspiration anyway!>>7816180Did you draw the jesus in the previous thread? That was incredible, hot and cool!>>7816341Thanks monkee!! Love your beautiful naturalistic art!>>7816439Awesome, also a flail with a skull and vertebrae instead of a spiky ball and chain?

this drawing was a fail mixing acrylic was a mistake>>7816528thank you peril , enjoying this new series of images a lot! very fucked up and hot

Fuck me sideways I cant do this shit
>>7816549Fag. No actually. Faggot.
>>7816552you'll be fine
Genuine question, why in gods name do you people like peril so much, when all he has posted is so comedically poorly made?
>open thread>sonicfag is acting up again>close threadmaybe next one
>Open drawing thread>See low quality drama posting>Produce more low quality, off topic drama posting>Pretend to leave
>>7816525I respect a fellow man who likes his curvy ladies, I also sense a bit of Eugène Delacroix when looking at your sketching, and I wonder if you're familiar with George Kamitani's work, they are the kind of artists who make me want to pick up a pencil just for how palatable it's to see desu.
>>7816557there's an option to report for "drama/community vendetta" for a reason y'know
>>7816556Peril is the kind of freak we aspire to become.
>>7816559that stuff is really gorgeous, yeah, i should look more into both of their bodies of work. curvy ladies are my favorite. thank you for the recommendation. i do recommend trying pencil if you get the chance - i mostly draw in pen, but it's good for the experience. lovely image
>>7816562Then I am glad you hate what I produce.
>>7816556he's actually good from a technical perspective (le Scott robertson meme) and just chooses to draw for his comical meet and fuck fetish and that's kino
>>7816556I don't
yeah I don't think these markers really mix
>>7816561That doesn't do anything, by the way. Neither does off topic, rude comment, or low quality post.I only report people who are clearly behaving maliciously, nothing ever happens.I'm not sure this board even has a janny.
>>7816569the only way to get rid of it is to bully it

need to stop for now so im posting what i've got so far. please critique. i hate torsos so god damned much.

Maybe DSbro was right
>>7816723I feel like you should aim to do a bit longer figs at the start. They are super good as a warm up but when it comes to low time ones there's a lot of guessing if you are not super familiar with the human body. I like you're pointing the masses of the body clearly.

Trying to get back into the habit of drawing every day. I don't think reference drawings like this are even effective practice for me right now, I should spam figure drawings and drawing from imagination, but I need some easy psychological wins right now.

>>7816999Dollfag that Roll you posted has the best face you have drawn but you are still drawing the same ugly fucking goblin-looking bitchmugs as ever in that catbox. What the fuck?>All those poses from imaginationI am calling bullshit. Barring the faces they are pretty good. Great even.
How do I make her look less manly while maintaining the same angle?
>>7816999Fuck are all these with no reference? How are you that good?>>7817003Your edges are too hard giving her a chiseled look. Women are meant to be softer.
>>7816999Cute
I don't get why I'm really shit one day and good the other
>>7817002>>7817005Not him but is it that wild to draw from imagination? On Twitter they act like if you draw next to a reference picture that you plagiarized itI always get scared to reveal if anything I drew had a reference at all it even makes me scared of speedpaints
>>7816528>hot jesusThat me ha ha. Thank you.
>>7816075Tried fixing my drawing with some refs like anon sugested. I thought it looked good enough for linework.

>>7816646OH WOW! What do we have here? It reminds me to those rubber real dolls they sell with no limbs. That could be a fun x-mas gift to get, lol..Happy X-mas anon>>7816539Thank you so much deerbro! Glad to be back, for a while at least. Gotta enjoy it while it lasts.Do you think that disabled-handicapped fetish can be a hot kink?I'm thinking that I could make a story about that. I made a quick test on picrel. It's a story about love and lust in a very challenging and cruel environmental setting. But I'm too rusty to start a new one just now.... mmmhh>>7816542You just made me smile =) Thank you so much!>>7816767Beautiful face and hair! and thank you again!>>7816782Even the thumbnail looks so nice, it oozes effortless artistry

I'm new to art and /ic/. Is this board open to 3D sculpting or 3D animiation? I've been wanting to learn art but I'm more interested in learning blender for some hobby animations
>>7817069OP here, wasn't me, some talented anon just fixed it
>>7817081Yeah, any art, though maybe you wanna start a new thread or search in catalog
>>7817083:(
>>7817056Skill levels and "fundamentals" are just a vibe. How the hell are you supposed to measure if you've "learned form"? There's no framework to compare yourself to, never was. You just have to feel like you have learned something, or just feel like you're intermediate now.
>>7817096Talent.
>>7817096Fair. I was thinking it was measured along these lines too, since I've seen artists intentionally draw shit styles and gain more notoriety despite being far more talented (Picasso) or artists that I've seen countless times fly under the radar yet seem to have mastered everything I aim to master. Insanely talented people, yet nobody mentions them EVER. picrel is from an artist (You) probably have never heard of, which breaks my fucking heart.

>>7816556it's just coomers circlejerking each other
>>7817081It's not against the rules or anything but you'd get better advice/discussion on /3/. It's a really slow board though.
>>7817135do you have a set time for these portraits, and how long is the longest you've worked on an individual portrait?
>>7817142Max 15 minutes, a lot of them are more like 10. I want to do longer studies eventually
>>7817136>"coomers"Sounds so old already.
>>7817144>I want to do longer studies eventuallywhy not now? even as an advanced artist, there's only so much you can do and practice within 15 minutes. even if it's once or twice a month, doing longer studies are a good way to allow yourself the opportunity to more fully realize what you're capable of and see what you know, see where you run into errors, and where you can (additionally) focus on for improvement.
>>7817147You make a good point, I could do one tomorrow (in bed now) since I have the time
>>7817129Cute
>>7817153how many of them need to get peed on or whatever lol
how the fuck is it that every time I don't draw for one day, drawing then feels like a distant memory or something that happened only in a dream?
>>7817162?

>>7817163how often do you draw to begin with, and how long have you been drawing for?
What's a good thread/board to post narrative ideas and character concepts? Mostly in text form?
>>7817179>>>/lit/
>>7817170ok just the one thenare the others for your other fetishes?
>>7817178most days since july unless I am really busy or tired but not usually time for most than a sketch or two each day I do draw
>>7817186I've had a similar haziness/unfamiliarity after getting back into drawing, but really only after an extended break of a month or more (been drawing fairly consistently for 5 years now). I'm sure the more you do it consistently the less frequently it'll feel unfamiliar after only minimal break time from it.
>>7816078Well, this is the first time I've put any significant effort into shading. I hope you can share any comments or advice about shading. I'd also appreciate any feedback on the drawing in general.>>7816135Thanks, Anon. I tried to fix the problem with the left eye, and I think I like the nipple better with less detail. I appreciate your comments.>>7817032Hahaha, the recycled paper is from a school where I went to do maintenance on the computer lab. Nothing "important" about it. Although I think I should use proper paper, this drawing started as a warm-up exercise and I ended up liking it, so I decided to use it to practice shading.
>>7816999>>7816999pedo?
would really appreciate if someone could do a correction overdraw, had some problems with the clothing and had to erase alot, so it looks a bit rough
>>7816123>posts thread challenge>doesn't even do it himself until one thread later>>7816879holy>>7817132same bro, same>>7816861at first glance no, something feels off about the shoulders and torso however, either it's not correctly attached to the neck or it's the proportions or maybe you hid a little bit too much of the left shoulder area or a culmination of smaller errors.

>>7817029Why, could you please answer my question? Do people get mad about obviously reffed things or not?I want to stay anonymous while bitching, looking insecure about my art is not exxactly something I am jumping through hoops to associate it with which is why I am posting anonymouslyDon't make me need a whole thread over 1 question guys...
>>7817222big dudes big digits.i cant draw hands this morning.
>>7817243Not him but who give a fuck about referencing?
>>7817249This is pretty good unironically :)
>>7817251tanks.his face look a lil like putin on accident.i was tryna not draw sameface and it just happened.
I recently (like one day ago) switched from a screenless tablet to a galaxy tab s6, and I'm trying to adapt as best I can. I'm feeling like my skill level just went down a couple of notches compared to drawing on screenless. Does adapation to screen take a long time? its making me want to kms
>>7817257You are done anon. All your skill will reset to zero now XD
>>7817264i'm sorry for being black anon
sometimes I feel like shoujo manga is a bit weird at times desu
good study but i still suck at rendering
>>7817057Yes of course, I have the lines on different layers so I can make adjustments easily.
By the time I get to drawing the hands and arms I realize that I fucked up the torso which means the hands can't be positioned right without fucking up the proportions of the arms and everything is just fucked>"that's why you draw gesture beforehand, to get the proportions right!"It doesn't fucking help because I can't tell if the proportions of my squiggly lines are actually correct before I actually do the whole rest of the drawing>"just gotta practice more and feel the form then!"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>7817250I usually see it when it is like "omg the mangaka drew this face and it is like this stock image, the details are the exact same! So it is bad, despite it not being a trace"Or there was an ad recently with an anime girl holding a wicker bag and everyone frealed out because it looked obviously referenced pose and outfitwise from a different non-anime a that came out at some point. They were not mad about the lack of originality, they were mad it had a referenceOr seeing people go "hmmm this picture looks a lot like this other picture" and will show it near a reference pic, and it is obviously not traced but is obviously based off the pose of whatever photo was found to be used, and then that artist will be accused as if they are a tracerAre these like not scenarios I should pay attantion to, or it is okay? I want to be able to have reference images show up in my speedpaints and not clench my asshole autistically finding a way to edit out the ref image or not ever use them in speedpaints
>>7817293bro just lasso it unless traditional then die
>>7817293Actually knowing that your shit is fucked up mid drawing is a good sign though and if you're keeping your sketches loose and don't go into details too early you should be able to adjust or redraw certain parts of it to fix it. Even pros make small errors and adjustments during the thinking phase of a drawing. Just watch any timelapse video and you'll probably notice them shifting and redrawing things.
>>7817279>>7817303you guys stop mogging everyone, thanks
>>7817304> mog everyoneNot me though hahahaha
>>7817222why do you post in these threads when you're obviously too good?
>>7817185No not directly
i want to be dominated
>>7817315Godly
>>7817315no problem i can chop your small pp off
>>7816247You're confusing the cheekbones with the jawline with that red line anon, get a mirror or something
>>7817315i think this is more than being dominated
>>7817315If it had the nun outfit it would be kino
>>7816360Nothing is too advanced for a /beg/, people used to draw directly from real life with moving people/animals/time
>>7817222dont listen to that other faggot please keep posting Thanks!
>>7817332not sure why you're so upset
>>7817313>>7817336I am not that good but thanks you.>whyThis is the most lively thread of /ic/ and I love taking to the locals here.>>7817332I will never stop he he :)
>>7817345Why are all furry fags so good at drawing? What is the secret behind that weird fact?
>>7817359this is just survivorship's bias. plenty of furry content - most, I would readily be willing to bet - that has been posted here and gets posted in other more unrestricted art communities is /beg/ tier.
i lost the ability to draw
>>7817368just trace
>>7817370that doesn't teach me how to draw
>>7817374
how would you know that
>>7817376
>>7817375Yes it does. It is a basic stage of the drawing learning curve. Try it.
>>7817368proof?
I still have so much to learn... AAAAHHHH
>>7817315why would marine do this thoughie
I got nothing to learn....It's so over
>>7817359It's moreso that furries are just drawn to drawing in general, and when you have a lot of people doing something you're bound to find some diamonds in the rough.
>>7817313You're confusing detail for quality.
>>7817396and where is the quality lacking?
>>7817298I want to be able to do it all trad. I know it's possible, I've seen great trad artists do it. I'm willing to put in the work until I get there. (Of course even the best artists still make mistakes, but the best ones are willing to just erase a whole head or body and do it over when they see it's not working because they draw so fast anyway.)>>7817301Yeah, I just need to keep practicing until I get into that fluid mindset where the mistakes don't bother me because I'll have the confidence and skill to be able to correct them.
>>7817392It's not about learning, it's all about expressing your artistic voice for whatever reason you see fit. People out there throw random splats of paint on a canvas for fun and call it art, and other people buy it, but they don't buy it much for the "artistic skill", they want the larping experience, they buy the easy "fun part" of being into the "art world". Why would you stop yourself from having your own fun a whatever level you are?
>>7817401You can draw the outline of a head in 3-4 lines. And learn body proportions and how to measure said proportions, knowing one of the two won't help you
>>7817374When it comes to foreshortened limbs, how do anons manage to place hands or feet? Do you just eyeball it or guess where the foot should be? And how do you think about it when there's forced distortion?
>>7817191The shading looks great man, keep up the good work!
>>7817406Every drawing requires eyeballing it
>>7817405Never seen a guide on how to measure proportions that wasn’t a) complicated formal perspective that very plainly no one actually uses, or b) “just eyeball it”, but if you have actual actionable advice then I’m certainly willing to hear it.
>>7817417>just eyeball itIs simply the best advice tbqh. It'll take time but you'll get close enough that no one cares anymore.
>>7817417Eyeballing is the way to go, use your fingers if needed no one will care or know and or just make some proportion marks
>>7817417It really isn't that complicated. At a certain point, it really is: 1. Compare reference and drawing. 2. Fix differences3. RepeatAs a beginner, you can do things like plumb/level lines (IE, finding reference points directly above or to the sides of another reference point and making sure your drawing matches), checking the angles between features, making sure the negative spaces match the reference, and literally just measuring the sizes of features. You'll quickly stop needing to manually measure things out and you'll just start seeing the differences without the tedium. This is what people mean by 'eyeballing it', but if you don't have a lot of mileage drawing, you might need to do the actual measuring for a bit to develop the intuition.
>>7817422Why is she making fun of my pp?
>>7817250pleps>>7816123send help
>>7817406I'm the guy who drew the thing, eyeballing it and knowing basic rules
Making a Lina Inverse x Frieren hentai. Nah, I'm joking. It's just a one-page joke.
I tire, too many ribbons, almost running out of memory with this one.
>>7817443hell yeh
all it takes is dedication and passion for the art to get good 2 months of just dedicated practicing drawing is easyjust do it
>>7817504Teach me more sensei
>>7817504lmfao
5 beers deep, what do i draw?
>>7817520More beer
>>7817522yeah im drinking another one rn what do i draw tho? i dont wanna draw beer
>>7817524Draw a car
>>7817526fuck me man why did you ask me to draw something so difficult.. ill try
>>7817526fuck you i give up. not posting the attempt either
>>7817549buh u suk cok
>>7817558fuck you and your car and fuck you. ill rape your asshole.
>>7816123Faces are hard, but I've got to attempt them or be dogshit forever.
>>7817566proportions
>>7817570Uhh, could you be a bit more specific? I guess I did fuck up the feet sizes a bit, but I don't think I fucked up the proportions that badly. Upper torso a little thin?
>>7817577head too small for its body size
Does anyone else have a problem with losing their place a lot while they're drawing? Like as I'm drawing the perspective and proportions keep changing.
>>7817581Bleh, yeah you're right. Head's the right size, but I made the facial features too small and fucked up the jaw, so she has a tiny face.
>>7817039Has science gone too far?
>>7816556>why do you like one of the few people who actually gives out critiqueLmao
i can’t keep track of all these names, whos peril?
>>7817634THE GOAT, hes my god, the only true INT in this thread
tried drawing some v kei guy, fucked it upI think at least the head and hair look somewhat not shit though
>>7817635this still doesnt answer my question, is it the guy who draws weird muscular porn, rendered anime girl, or the purple guy?
>>7817637hes >>7817039

>>7817647who the fuck are you, i was getting excited for a page drawing, just to find this monstrosity. get the fuck out
>>7817649He's a permabeg all the same. Just say you want more shota guro rape.
>>7817655yes. they are all permabegs. what else is new?
>>7817649It's a /beg/ thread, are you retarded or lost?
another v kei guy, I think this turned out ok

Wip on my 2nd drawing on a screen Tablet. Also, are these supppsed to get so hot??
>>7817726shouldnt the back part of the chair be somewhat visible thru that gap on her right (our left)
>>7817726SHOW OFF HER TOES YOU COWARD
>>7817726its bad
Is there something like pro colors and beg colors?
>>7817728Yes, i'm fixing that now, it was because I used a fill tool so It filled everything behind her too>>7817729no>>7817730thanks
>>7817504https://files.catbox.moe.0f0n25.pngLiked the poseDoes anyone want me to render it? I just lasso tooled it on black and white
>>7817719I want to but staring at the canvas and realizing I will never be as good as my tormentor makes me feel like I am drowning.
>>7817743You're a faggot
>>7817746I am bad but I want to stop being bad.
>>7817742https://files.catbox.moe/0f0n25.pngOops.. still sick so iq is low
>>7817753Then do something nigga
>>7817737Yep, de-saturated colors are pro. Ultra saturated colors can be pro when the artist use them with a purpose, usually on dynamic posing characters, in a cool-techy-kistchy style.
How to break out of symbol drawing? Whenever I try to draw from imagination I always end up with retarded doodles.
>>7817676Very cool>>7817726>Also, are these supppsed to get so hot??If it's not a standalone tablet, it really shouldn't get anything more than warm at most
>>7817769Gonna be honest with you nigga but I am gonna need all dat tentacle shit you can post.
>>7817771Gonna be honest with you, Imma head to bed for today cause I got work tomorrow.But I've posted tentacles before (>>7816747) and I will post tentacles again
>>7817755it's not good
>>7817785Just like your mother's blowjobs and she's still the talk of the town bitchass nigga
>>7817755Cute
I cant draw in 3d like my fav japanese mangakas.
>>7817792https://files.catbox.moe/cw4420.jpgThanksI tried to figure how to make gray stuff into colors but the color layer on krita never does stuff how I want it to so it looks weird
>>7817786keep smelling the syrup
What's the process for learning how to draw people? I've copied a few images and drew a few proportions to get the hang of it. Should I go on to learn gesture drawing and/or construction next?
>>7817803You worthless bitchass nigga. You're going to stay on my dick until you die. Your purpose in life is to be in that thread sucking a dick daily, your purpose in life is to be on that site blowing a dick daily, because what are you here for? To worship me? You should kill yourself right NOW. And I mean that with a 100%. With a 1000%.
>>7817807No BBC = anger. You're mad at these Aftican cocks. These rhino dicks.
>>7817809Get this tiersexual out of my chat
>>7817755its really bad

>>7817874kielbasa kino
>>7817869I really like this advice, what pro tips can you offer me?
>>7817876probably rope and take 20 xannies
>>7817877No, about the drawing, this is ic not adv
>>7817879my advice still stands
>>7817881Sweet
silly bath drawinglong proportions
>>7817892I admire the fact that even after a year and a half or more of output akin to a young child's, you haven't given up, I couldn't even live with myself if I were in your place
>>7817900Still better than PBS (pbuh)
>>7817892marry me paige
>>7817902At least he actually feels shame about bad output. Paige is more like a creature of sorts, that merely puts lines on paper without any consciousness, and feels nothing no matter how they come out. It is akin to a beast of sorts
>>7817813And youre one of the most well known Faggots that keeps coming into every thread after you get banned thousands of time to suck my virtual dick every thread.Because you fantasize about me ass naked and abs chiseling, with a FWAP booklet. While I commit 3D cube rotations. While I put you in all types of perspective boxes, where you cant get out. Youre forced to suck a dick.Youre forced to get pounded in your virtual ass.Then i bust matrix juice all down your throat till you choke and there is nothing you can do about it.
>>7817907shut up pedro
Hard exercise
>>7817907Not that much different from pbs.
perspective is le hard and I hate how the upper cilinders look
>>7817907pedro post detected, you're not much better
>>7817909I appreciate the laugh. You're a good one
what fun
>>7817925sovl
>>7817755It's not awful, but maybe you should take a break from illustrative drawings and focus on practicing fundamentals. Try learning one thing and incorporate it into your next full drawing.
How does one goes from a state of not knowing something to knowing something? My whole progress drawing hands at the end of day is always zero. I feel like zero. Nothing was absorbed at all.
>>7817933When you're able to apply knowledge to achieve the desired result.
>>7817926just one more page with old dudes till loomis gets to the real stuff... and im already tired
>>7817933look up different ways to construct and draw hands, try them all out, take what works for you from each of them
>>7817914mech stuff in general is fuckin impossyblethats a sick fighter jet thing tho
>>7816879It's really good and cute! I admire your work a lot
>>7817929That's what I generally do yeah. My routine is like, shapes and lines etc from the shoulder for like 10 minutes, then I try to do something for fun for a bit, then I study whatever I'm feeling I should or need to, then I finish the day with another drawing that's for fun but trying to apply some knowledge that I gained from studying. I'm studying faces as of current still, it's why I actively try to never do a side profile or front facing head since then it'd he too easy and I wouldnt apply anything I learnt nor learn something.
all my gesture work fucking sucks
>>7817390she won't, i'd like to get my dick chopped off by her though :)
>>7817969Let the eye go.. and the tits should be way fatter (not saying this as a meme, it's just that the ref seems to have bigger ones)
>>7817969The boob starts and rests way too high. Other than that it is looking really good anon!
>>7815858>preddy gud, now imagine if you knew how to depict translucent clothI did consider transparent cloth but decided against it at the time since I would only want it on a couple places and I feel it looks a bit unbalanced like this. I don't want the hanging crotch part transparent since I like that it gives the illusion of a lack of panties from the front.
>>7817949thank you anon, trying my best.
I've had no.time to draw today
gay wizard startingI think it looks nice but I just know I'm going to fuck it up and ruin it
Posted this a couple of times in some of the /v/ draw threads, first time posting in /ic/ though. Bully away
>>7818028Head looks good, the body could use more work.
>>7818032Thanks, and I agree. This was my first time trying torso with bottom right being my first (kinda) full body. This is a more recent work.
Hand sore
ok I think his arms are a touch too long>>7818028which character/game
>>7818053Minami from Sushi Ben
Today’s life studies >>7818079Nice faces >>7818077Good stuff, tail is a bit short though
>>7818077y is she crying
>>7816879It came out really well
>>7818125Very nice. I think darker darks would go a long way tho
>>7817993Her cheeks seem way too pronounced. It looks like someone beat the shit out of her and now her face is swelled. But knowing you're an asanagifag I could see that being intentional...
>>7817045Damn!! OKAY, you convinced me! Here's the first page. I'm still trying to go back to this comic system. I'm not too sure if I'm going to keep it like this, I need to build back everything... Shit's so fun>>7817376You're amazing beyond words, big fan!>>7817443I like this, it's hot for some reason...>>7817624I'll explore the limits of science and human strength and courage against adversity in this new project>>7817635Thank you so much for your beautiful words! I shouldn't deserve such a gift of a praise... T--T
>>7818144Nah, she hasn't even received the beatings yet. You're not the first person to mention the way I do cheeks either, i'll keep that in mind going forward.
>>7815235Apologize for not drawing her arms. Now we have to sit through 100 comic pages of amputee porn.
Started coloring it a bit. Back to work tomorrow but hoping to finish this after.
>>7818147thanks
oof
>>7818127I'm still not sure how far darks could be pushed without going too far. I'll try playing around with it >>7818157The belt things clinging to her body while she bends over like that look really weird, as if they're painted on her skin. When she's standing tall I'm assuming the belts are taut and up against her body and thighs, but when she bends over the distance between her thighs and wherever those belts anchor to her body reduces which causes slack in the belts. You'd expect the slack in the belts to hang out in front of her body in some way but instead they're running along the surface
>>7818162Ah, makes sense. I'll work on it :>
>>7818121Draw more sapphire
>>7818164Keep in mind that the belt and buckle are 3d forms too. For the belt you may want to add some lines to indicate the thickness of it. For the buckle you can try using shading or highlights to indicate its roundness (unless it has square edges, then use lines). The rest looks good to me, the forms are clear and her pose is convincing and appealing
>>7817985thx anon. This is far as I can go for now. Onto the next waifu....
>>7818193Much better anon. Good job.
>>7818193the ominous floating eye..
>>7818079Stop fucking around with the motherfucking opacity pressure brush and apply proper values dollfag. You clearly arent too retarded to keep doing this shit of just throwing random strokes together.Pick 3 values and stick to them with a hard brush. You really need to give up that bad habit of yours.
>>7815194wasted a whole weekend. polished my last attempt's turd, just so I could move on
>>7818202I love you so much appealbro. Do you have a blog?
>>7818043I love herI want her to choke me outBloggu?
Can anyone teach me how to draw a anime head from any angle starting with a cube? A cute one.
>>7818203I remember when I used to drawfag, I *did* actually have a blog back then, I shared it once, and got spammed there by some guy asking for for free comms
>>7817804Anyone? I've been trying to get into gesture drawing but really am not enjoying or feeling it, how necessary is this for figures?
>>7818274post what you've drawn
>>7818274Learn how to draw and deform cubes and cylinders. If you can do that you can construct anything.
>>7818274>What's the process for learning how to draw people?Draw people. While not sure how they look, use nature and images. return half a year later.
>>7818285The most insidious beg trap. You will think you learned something, but all you'll achieve are stiff and anatomically incorrect figures.Beg should learn gestures, simple figures and anatomical landmarks first.
Did anyone else notice that we recently got an influx of clearly skilled/accomplished artfags who don't engage with the thread and only post their finished pieces just to fellate their ego?
>>7818324actually people just progressed and you didnt
>>7818324i don't care i'm doing ket
>>7818324Such as? Chances are you are talking about mid begs
Did anyone else notice that recently, 80% of these threads have been filled by derailing floods from clearly unskilled nodraws who never post finished pieces and only fill the threads with nonsense and drama?
>>7818324You guys are finishing pieces?

It's been more or less a year since I started, guess this will be a final landmark for the first 12 months of my art journey.
>>7818424gmi
>>7818425More like another anime generic artist number 10101001.
>>7818427still gmi
>>7818324Covid era /beg/s made it while you are still here drawing gesture.
>>7818427Generic assholes are much more numerous and less engaging.

>>7818432n-no, I--ACK
Forgot this website had a board for art. Been somewhat serious about learning to draw for about a month now, not really done much since childhood. Just been drawing from imagination and with reference images and was getting frustrated by the difference between what I drew and what I had wanted to draw, so I got a pdf of The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain (or TND on the Right Side, for short) and did the first few exercises today. Not going to post the self portrait because I'm a paranoid retard.I'm liking the drawing upside down, all the pseudoscience psychology (but I repeat myself) asides. The picasso actually made me frustrated and I thought I was doing shit, so I rushed the stuff above the hands. Imagine my surprise when I turned it over and the stuff below the hands was actually pretty accurate. The knight was done much quicker and wasn’t remotely frustrating. I didn’t feel like finishing the legs because I was too afraid of wasting time or messing them up and I liked the half-done look. Realise I should probably overcome that instinct.Any advice on spotting mistakes before it’s too costly to fix them? Happened with the knight, realised too late that I’d messed up the scale of the horses chest and head and the angle of the knight’s left leg. I’m guessing this is just something I’ll get better at with practice.Also would like to hear what people think of TND on the Right Side, is it any good? I think I’m going to stick with it but would be happy for recommendations on other books. Probably getting ahead of myself but I’d think learning how to draw anatomy with foreshortening without an explicit reference would be most useful.
Finished my first drawing on my screen tablet. I think it's not as good as what I usually draw on my Wacom, but with practice I'll get the hang of it. I like it a lot more as well, having a screen, tilt control and such is very nice
>>7818436I'm expecting you to be dead in 2026 with how often you depressionpost.
First pass on this.Pretty rusty doing dynamic poses, feels stiff to me but I'll get there
>>7818324Are we just going to ignore all the times /int/s gave out critiques and advice? Or do you think you're owed a reply literally everytime you post a single gesture?
This. I give advice and throw in my spicy comments anonymously. I keep my art and comments seperate XD
>>7818344Fucking this. Morons actually think every time someone critiques, it's a completely different person. And when an anon does reply with his work posted he's labeled an attention whore.Holy fuck /beg/s are retarded.
>>7818208Sorry anon, I don't have one.
>>7817933too big
now that JLPT is over i can go back to drawingday 8 of drawing and painting every day (i took a 4 month break after day 7)
Got myself a good made in USA sketch pad a few days ago, as well as some Faber Castell mechanicals, was an amazing decision
New here. Here is a watercolor and ink painting I made yesterday. I like painting landscapes, not to big on portrait work or people.
This one is from last week

do people always utilize layer modes and not eyeball the colors yourself when painting on every drawing?
>>7818642Her head's shaped like a penis.
>>7818563Cool yautja, is that the one from Prey?
>>7818658heh, well now i have to find another way to draw hoods
>>7818655>do people always Nno
Still grindin
>>7818544>>7818551These are really nice! The contrast of the evergreen trees on the right and deciduous trees on the left is interesting. If I had a nitpick, the wiry branches between the deciduous trees in the foreground don't seem to connect to the tree in a way that makes sense, compared to the ones at the edges. Maybe it just needs one more thick branch to break it up?>I like painting landscapes, not to big on portrait work or people.That seems to be the opposite of this board. If there was a scenery general, I wonder how many people would post there?
Anybody have a guide on how to adapt a loomis head into anime proportions?
Ruzzia you still around?
>>7818679find one figure image you like, spend however many weeks on it until you get it right and use whatever resources you think will help you get there while working on it
>>7818712Just look for cat heads drawn by Loomis.
>>781875Thank you for the advice. I feel I need to get better brushes for painting the deciduous trees. I find I mess them up when I paint them but I just need to just do the work and practice. I fell back on ink silhouettes for them. That is one thing I do like is the contrast with the result.I did go way overboard on the branches. I looked around and did not really find any other nature boards that fit landscapes in art form other than the photo boards
>>7816757oh my pride flag it's the wholesome chungus trans rights guy!
feels like no matter how much i try i will never understand gesture and it depresses the fuck out of me
>>7818749I thought it was Sinix.. Is it the same guy?
>>7818700>>7818740I messed up the tag
>>7816075holy shit whoever drew that jesus is stunting on this board
>>7818769You don't "understand" gesture, you just flow into it after grinding through a million of dynamic pose references. It's like learning a language. If you don't know how the human body is built and how it moves, then you can not understand how to express movement. Gesture is one of the worst beg traps along with render.
>>7818781he's been on /ic/ for a decade
drawing is so hard ;_;

Bashing thoughts together.
>>7818961https://files.catbox.moe/8jpnqx.png
how do you even paint with layer modes, using eyedropper with it is so difficult
>>7818967built for brutal rape

>>7818909Don't stop, King.
>>7818927One of the few times were hiding the feet would be justified.
>>7818987Thank you tiger it's a hard path to learn how to draw but I am trying my best
>>7818935Are you following Loomis?That sphere is unironically good enough to draw a blook out of. Don't stop yourself from continuing forward until you can draw a perfect sphere/block/whatever. It's the worst thing you can do.
>>7818990The only thing that would be justified for me is to give up and put the fries on the bag. I have no grit nor the autism to keep up.
>>7819010That's the spirit!
>>7819010I was just joking. But yes, you should definitely work on those feet.
>>7819008Im' trying FIGURE DRAWINGFOR ARTISTS by Steve Huston.I might just be too depressed to draw today.
>>7818165LOL I will next time I see her >>7818162Just experiment. Since you’re digital you can always undo it
>>7818970why use layer modes when you can pick the color you want?
>>7818970You don't colourpick with them. I use multiply with one colour and layer the layers for darker shades. Usually about four different stacked layers for shading.
>>7818970after getting my colors right with the layer modes i just merge everything and then paint on top

>>7819039i'm trying to learn how pros utilizes digital tools, i do usually eyeball the colors myself when i paint normally>>7819049hmm i see that does sound more simple, this artist that i'm looking up to is using multiply as base color though so i'm pretty confused (the painting in the middle is base color after converting it from multiply to normal layer mode) >>7819055i see

And this is the hands. Ok well that's all mildly worth posting I've done lately
>>7819121not like it matters. takes an actual miracle for these threads to hit the image limit>>7819113thats up to you.
>>7819135i am already post 1 whole image you might've not seen yet. I didn't post the version with color because I realized after making it that I actually messed up quite a bit of what was already there even while improving other aspects..Wait I can just post it too
>>7816123what is this pose supposed to represent
Alright either im picking the wrong files or the draft is being fucked up in uploading, third time's the charm?
>>7819146my cock my rock hard cock
The biggest blackpill is that iwnb Chinese and all I can do about it is spend the rest of my days trying to replicate what they draw while inevitably making it different because I don't have my mother getting taken to a concentration camp over saying that that one guy kinda looks like a yellow bearNgmi Also lately I have found myself quite enjoying stuff that is scheduled by the author be it courses or books so I can just do a little bit of that every day and see improvement. It is great fun. Thinking of trying to make my own schedules so I don't have to think "what do I do now" and instead can just get to it
>>7819148What the fuck.
xe's somehow back
>>7819110Great work making the thread worse.
Also I am seeing massive gains from learning about and trying to employ perspective related stuff and to be honest one of my biggest goals is to properly be able to think of drawing as just 3d rendering but laying it down on 2d. So should I try to take a perspective course considering this? I think it'd be extremely boring but the benefits (being able to do anything at all while it seems 3dmensional) motivates me an absurd amount. I think I should do it but then I'd be definitively handling too much info at once and I'd have to cut courses n books or spread them potentially too thin..
FUCK

The only person I can say I actually noticed not post is mr helpful guides. Possibly biggest loss in the history of my life. Though he was still helping even while I was sperging so I assume it is unrelated that he's not posting since he seemed extremely unaffected by it

am shleeby. gn doodle frens
>>7819155It makes sense in context if you're curious about the Giants logo.
Guys I have. Been drawing consistently for uh 7 hours a day for the past 5 years here is my my first draw of gesture and and here is mt latest one , realistically speaking, is it time to put the pen up my ass ?
>>7819181'' hours a day for the past 5 years '' i thought at first 5 days still not as bad as arbiter wolf
>>7819184Okay don't tell anyone but this is actually an evil troll post very very cleverly disguised as genuine. So basically this is comparing the end result of 2 streaks of drawing I had, one ending at around the start of this year and lasting around 3 months and another now which is at I think 2 months and a week or so.
>thread immediately devolves into pure garbage because one retard replied to itEvery time
>>7819188forget my just as evil comment and dont shove that pen up your arse but pick up that pen againand continue onwards
>>7818487sadge. .
>>7819193That's what I'm talking about that's what I'm talking aboutYou know we have big big great plans for next year I'm thinking I organize a whole schedule of things I should study keep it organized keep it simple keep drawing daily doing my thing you know they hate me for it but I have to keep doing my thing you know and alongside that I'm going to have some lifestyle changes I've great plans for this great plans I'm thinking no more 4chan that's what ive been thinking they tell me its never going to happen I'm too neurotic but you have to believe you know what they say fake it until you make it, and that's true you know
>>7819196>s I'm thinking no more 4chanyou have unironically given yourself the best advice, take a break from 4chan, get better drawing at your own pace, and maybe come back after a while when you dont feel too neurotic
>>7819110>>7819172NTA why don't we want that one anon to post images?
>>7819110yeah like hell im clicking on any links on this site
>>7819181>drawing consistently for uh 7 hours a day for the past 5 yearsno you werent
>>7819206Yap. Recently I realized, I don't actually feel bad at all about others drawing better than me, if anything it motivates me and that's been true for quite some time now, but when I have people I've personal grudges with doing literally anything which obviously includes drawing then that causes a lot of mental trouble related to my art capabilities. I can't lie to you I'm honestly happy with my progress for the timespan I've been drawing now and I couldn't feel more excited to keep it going and keep improving and i need to just cut off anything that like messes up my mental and puts me out of focus. So 4chan has to go yes or yes basically. I think as long as I have a good enough and adaptable enough schedule for what i gotta do daily and keep myself busy with it next year I'll get some good gains and live a better life. Doesn't feel great in a way that I have to stop talking to people in general though because I now realize genuinely the most productive, stable and happy periods of my life are just when I'm completely alone in the zone doing my think and just thinking about doing better than yesterday and keeping it up. You know before this drawing stuff I managed to memorize like 1200 kanji and 3000+ words in just like 3 something months from 0 when I was just alone chilling and stuff. So I'm gonna do that again and keep myself on the right track. Ok blogpost session over now I post tomorrow when my decision making iq is low at night again okay bye
>>7819194based
>>7819196>drawing dailyThe best gains are made when you don't draw daily.
>>7818445I think I'm suddenly feeling closer to it, I hate this so much, it's not your fault, but you reminded me that not much has changed, I'm still me, and it's not much different there.I wanted to do this without any reference, but I had to reference the lion ears, I forgot what they looked like.
>>7819218Technically true, but I really wouldn't spread that around because begs are going to think that means never drawing at all.
>>7819226There's no issue with using reference, especially for elements you're unfamiliar with. Reference can expand your options as opposed to limiting them. Anyway, work on your personal problems instead of ignoring them
should i try getting laid? is it worth the risk?

>>7819242do not insult my brown chinese wife
>>7819233I use plenty of reference, I just wanted to do this one without.I stopped ignoring my problems recently, got medicated, I tried to improve my life, the truth is I'm just pretending it had gotten better but it hasn't, I'm still the same, I'm feeling sick, sad, nowhere closer to any real goal, I can barely sleep because of medication and I'm afraid that I'm going to kill myself.

>>7819209that anon here, guy i responded to has apparently harassed people in this thread before, and somehow me telling him to post his work directly is leading to that happening again? its also the start of peak schizo hours so this threads gonna be nothing but incoherent screeching for the rest of the night.>>7819172dont have anything finished right now, sorry.

plz teach how to draw cute anime girls heads plox
>>7819294Cute
>>7819291The most inprotant thing when it come to gestutre is that you must grasp the nature flow of the. It flow like a river. You can post your gesture drawings and i'll try to help you with them :)Gesture is a mean to an end don't make a big deal about i :)
>>7819310* flow of the bdy
>>7819311Too much chicken scratch.
>>7819310pic related is from a few days ago, trying to place down a line of action before placing some basic forms to represent the 3 major masses of the body
>>7819310>>7819325and more recently is this, which is more like a half-copy trying to follow a figure and another person's gesture work (and you can see myself getting increasingly frustrated with it)
The Keys to Drawing midpoint thing is eating me up and I'm not sure why.
>>7819325>>7819326Who are youu studying gesture from? Hampton or Villpuu? to be honest, I can't see the flow of the body in these gestures at all. Do you watch the teacher gestures demonstration?
>>7819342the first one was trying to incorporate @hakubi8888's process from her gesture book, the second was from chromasketch's on youtubei have some older ones that were studies from hampton and further back vilppu, but most of them weren't timed
>>7819343Here what i remember from Vilpuu gesture lesseons1. Feel the flow of the body using line and contour lines
>>78193572. Contain the from using line, contour line by bracketing them. You bracket the forms.
>>78193593. You clarify the gesture by show the overlaps of the form
>>7819361More about bracketting
silly little drawing trying out a new program>>7818861i like the environment in the top left alot>>7818443good rendering can save most drawings, good job. the sketch initially looked kinda meh but you pulled it around
>>7819366Gesture can be dirty and ugly, as long as you can get the flow and over all proportion of the figure1. Initial gesture using line and contour2. continuning to clarify the gesture using brackets3. continuing to crarify the gesture using overlaps
>>78193691. Line and contour2,3. Clarify using bracket and oer laps4. box itYou have to watch him draw and draw along anon
>>7819372Example 2
>>7819374example 3
>>7819369>contouralmost everything i read and watched about gesture told me NOT to focus on the contour of the figure>bracketsi loosely remember this but i wasn't sure how to employ it>watch him and draw alongi had tried, these are some old attempts and once again i don't think they were timed
>>7819375Examplle 4
>>7819372>>7819369So good it makes me want to kill myself.
>>7819376>>7819378Example 5Gesture is a beg trap imo. It's for people who have been drawing for a long time like myself. I draw for like 4 years without even know wat a gesture is. Gesture is a mean to an end. Don't be afraid to makke ugly gesture.
>>7819376You're supposed to build out the cross contour of the body along the figure which is another way of saying constructing 3d forms. What Vilppu doesn't teach is following the outside contour of the figure, ie as if you were tracing the model. You can do the latter if you wish of course, it literally doesn't matter as long as you find a way to preserve the action of the figure in an appealing way.
>>7819305a-anyone,,....!!!!

Watercolor study for the day
>>7819386>>7819388Ahahahahahahahaha you are screwed fucker XD
>>7819398Nice study :)
>>7817153Had a day off, didn't draw much, was thinking too much about narrativehttps://files.catbox.moe/naymi8.jpghttps://files.catbox.moe/gawd9b.jpg
Brush opacity pressure vs. brush density pressure, which is actually better?
>>7819327funny
>>7819327Not funny at all
>>7819388Rounder faces tend to be cuter.I also tried to reduce the amount of hair going in every direction and make the hairstyle more compact. Feature placement is important like ears eyes and so on, hard to look super pretty&cute if the face is off. Don't know if going cross eyed was intentional but it didn't feel like it was. There are certain eye shapes that are just naturally cuter due to being big and round instead of rectangles/triangles.
Teach me how to draw muscular handsome man. Please :)
>>7819452
>>7818935It's actually quite difficult, keep practicing.
>>7819265Gralt of River!Jokes aside looking good, friend!
>>7819294i really like this. i think it looks really nice
>>7819427it's personal preference. try each separately and both at the same time to see what you like. i like using both but with low flow (density) for sketching, good for rendering too. very low for the subtle stuff.
>>7819443thanks :)>>7819444sorry, i'll find better material :(>>7819305if what you mean by cute is kawaii type of cute, i was reading lack's book recently and according to him one thing that can help is to place the face features on 1/3 or 2/5 of the head, i think it's pretty extreme though so adjust accordingly, also what's with the quadruple ears haha
>>7819452Baki is a good reference, but you'll have to tweak and simplify details (or entirely discard some, specially the faces) to reach the desired appeal. Fist of the north star figures are cool but too stiff, Jo Jo figures are great for gesture appeal but not masculine enough.. For faces stick to the yaoi style. If you can mix all of that together I think you can get a great result.>>7819290This is so cool!

How do you draw cheeks?
>>7820151since you're copying from a reference just look a bit more at the reference you should see what you're doing wrong. that being said, I think a big part it is the proportions/placements of the rest of the face are a bit different than your reference. I think the top of the cheek is too long, and you're making it protrude too much given the reference. my advice is to keep drawing lots and lots, you'll develop more of an eye for these sorts of things. Another piece of advice is to look at your reference MUCHLY and really try to absorb the SHAPES and CONTOURS into your brain. it won't be perfect at first but you'll certainly notice an improvement.
