>2026What is your first official (meaning you drew + finished it 100%) work of the New Year?Mine's is pic related
>>7847806I haven’t drawn a “completed” work since like 2022
>>7847808what the hell man, why not?
>>7847808me tooi haven't really found the motivation to complete anything worth throwing to the consumer piggies
>>7847810Drawing on and off, mainly just endless exercises and studies.I’ve done some sketches that were more finished than others but haven’t colored anything in a long time.I have a more focused study plan now so I hope I can get back to finishing something this year.
>>7847806Are those Mexican women?
>>7847806>Mine's is pic relatedso you're a brown streetshitting cuck?
>>7847813>>7847814Even if art's not your job (yet) surely theres a piece or two you guys really want to commit to unto completion? What exactly is stopping you?>perfectionism?>time?>lack of tools? >>7847817Ew no, they're Asgardians, Hela and Lady Loki from Marvel Rivals! >>7847818>brown Yeah>streetshittingFuck Vishnu>cuckI'm not an American Zionist so no.
>>7847821The whole pic still screams Mexico to me
>>7847821I’m just garbage, and really slow, so any time I try to draw a completed piece it takes forever and looks like shit.I’ve been specifically grinding studies to improve my speed so hopefully there’s light at the end of the tunnel.
>>7847821i have finished piecesi just won't post em>getting an art job in 2026lmao69% income tax. That's whats stopping me.
>>7847827>I’ve been specifically grinding studies to improve my speed so hopefully there’s light at the end of the tunnel.There is, unironically. I've noticed with speed practice (for sketches and even big projects like the OP) the main thing that impacts your speed (I'm sure you've had this issue too) is perfectionism.>this line is too messy>that colour isn't proper>it's too scratchy looking You genuinely have to learn to dismiss that nagging voice inside your head if this is one of the factors fucking with you bro.Also deadlines can help tighten your focus, be it deadlines from others or self-imposed. Like pic related was my Christmas themed Pinup for this year and I got it done on Christmas morning despite all my other projects/comms/etc because the pressure of the holiday enabling me to focus harder. >>7847828>getting an art job in 2026Become your own boss. Easier said than done but it's genuinely possible.
>>7847830>don't want to pay taxes? just become your own bossw..what?
>>7847831Taxes are inevitable, I'm not talking about that Playa.
>>7847821>I'm not an American Zionist so noso you stopped drawing nigger versions of your porn then?now go and draw something that isn't naked cartoon woman in void and you might actually improve
>>7847834Why are you seething so much lmao >now go and draw something that isn't naked cartoon womanJokes on you my son, I do!
Blud draws naked fortnite women for teenagers and thinks he can school othersbuy an ad, faggot
>>7847839>fortniteThat's Marvel Rivals unc
Same shit, different name
>>7847806good job, anon. You aced the left face.I can't post. I never finish anything.
Then PYW purveyors of art and destroy this brownoid. Oh wait you won't because you don't draw and only come to this board to seethe at people who actually do something with their lives

I havent drawn anything yet
>>7847848>>7847843>on a drawing board>don't draw
How do you find references where the subjects tits are touching each other
>>7847866I started looking at references on r34 and then once I drew tits touching each other multiple times it got easier for me Literally just practice and study!
>>7847871fuck
>>7847857Technicly this is art board not drawing boardHe's probably busy sculpting, carving, painting, making collages, prints, installations or something
>>7847877he should post his work then
nigga really just casting fishing rods
You are copying or tracing Legoman sketches. Looking at your gallery you can pinpoint the moment you started doing that.
>>7847895color me interestedany obvious comparisons?
>>7847838>make a normal statement>ur le seethingThe indian in you is showing
>>7847806I haven't drawn anything yet. Too busy playing video games and getting drunk .>>784780These are well drawn. But Damn you like em thick huh?
>>7847806Eh, finished is pushing it, but I drew these /beg/ challenge yesterday
This thing o algx
This
>>7847918Bringing up niggers out of nowhere isn't a normal statement you braindead faggot.
>>7847806hello saar i am much big artist pls be of donating so i can draw more generic coom slop with stupid looking facesfank u very muchly
>>7848157Considering this is 4chan it's quite "normal" plus OP is clearly a porn artist judging from his horrendous style so it wouldn't be THAT surprising if he did draw nogs
>>7848151>BOOBA
>>7848059>This thing o algxdid you have a stroke anon
>>7848644It's shartyspeak.He is one of (((them))).
>>7847806Idk if studies count as finished work but I'm a permastudycel. I haven't painted in a while so it felt good to make
>>7848659very nice DSL
>>7847986>>7848059>>7848151Very noice /ic/itzens, but you need to get into the habit of signing your work, yes even sketches >>7847939Draw while drunk, a legal DUI if you will >>7848659Studies count, that looks pretty final and good Playa
>>7848694Thanks, I do love some bimbo lips>>7848831thanks!
I thank Marvel Rivals for introducing me to asian Psylocke and Emma frost's jiggly flabby thighs.
ok chat how can i avoid paying taxes
>>7847877>>7847890i havent made anything yet. is it that common to draw every day?
>>7849202XMRgood luck!
well
>>7847806What's a Gravure Shindah?and how do you grind those reddit posts?don't you get tired of posting all of that?
>>7847871Just a question, testing a theory.Are you a woman? Or a gay man?
For a bb thread where someone suggested we should kill ourselves for liking Linda.
>>7847824that's the trendy art style they keep pushing, so you were right on the theme since no fucking comic book women look like this
>>7850370kek is this show any good
I started a year with a shitpost.I'm not being optimistic with such start, but we will see.
>>7850895No complaints so far. Comedy's good, characters are nice. A relaxing time overall.
>>7847830Good on you for making finished pieces and actually posting them.
>>7850283>WomanNot hyper-rendered revealing clothing yet somehow completely devoid of sexual energy (likely just drawing it for the easy patreon bux) so I really doubt it. Also not extremely gross tumblr tier fat and stretch marks and body hair, so probably not a lesbian either.>Gay manThe most exaggerated hyper feminine bodies and faces, absolutely 0 detectable androgyny in any part of the illustrations; the better question would be why you would even ask something so silly?To test a theory of mine - will you please confirm that you are a woman (probably 30+)? It's like some sort of female instinct to put men down by calling them gay, even when it makes absolutely no sense. His work is teeming with virile energy, and the fact that you can't see that is a big tell.
>>7849142>I thank Marvel Rivals for introducing me to asian Psylocke and Emma frost's jiggly flabby thighs.We all do Playa, although Emma's frost aren't as jiggly as Psylocke's >>7849297It's something, sign your work going forward >>7851474Shitpost drawings are good practice and will get you to a point where you can shitpost with almost any of your drawings because you've drawn so much. >>7851790>Good on you for making finished pieces and actually posting them.This is an artboard bro, I'm surprised more people don't post their work and even in my art's infancy I still posted it. It's probably all the criticism (just or unjust) that deters people from posting anything.I will post what I draw regardless.
>>7852096>It's like some sort of female instinct to put men down by calling them gay, It's very bitch-like behavior, an ick if you will
>>7852792>covered her assFor what purpose
>>7852792This is really cute! You did a good job!
>>7847806Uhhh okay
>>7853196kawaii
>>785319610/10 extremely cute desu. I like the sunflower motif. Is she eating noodles from a bowl?
First fully finished piece this year. You can find the rest on /mmg/ below>>7853425>>7853428
>>7853420Yeah >>7853386Thxx^_^
>>7853439Based CorruptionChad
>>7847806please draw more asshole, shinda-san!
>>7850283How can you look at that art style and think that’s a woman or gay man lol>>7852096Maybe they were wondering since Loki (male) is a character women are obsessed with.
>>7851474nice
>>7855071Thanks!>>7852158>Shitpost drawings are good practice and will get you to a point where you can shitpost with almost any of your drawings because you've drawn so much.Hey, you know? That's pretty good idea. Hand-made, unique shitposts beat tired reposts, after all. Thanks!
>>7852096What about bisexual women?
>>7856562that's just normal women tho
op is an attention whore
>>7857660the earlier description clearly doesn't apply thoughever
>>7848659>blueskyGenuine question... are you a libtard?
>>7858529I don't talk politics online
>>7852792>>7853196>>7853439Very good bros, reminder to sign your work/make it more visible and date it too for archival purposes.>>7854211Ofcourse! I've drawing some asshole right now Playa but have some Luna Snow ass I drew some time ago
>>7847806I made this somewhat modern looking Batman with more classic colors, pose inspired by a JRJR sketch I saw him draw once on YouTube.
>>7858590i'm glad AI will put you out of commission, this is just traced garbage that's below /beg/ tier. It's actually kind of pathetic that you are doing this, third worlders gonna third world. Every single day i'm grateful i was born as a wanted child with food and education.
>>7859044The skeleton of potential is there, keep drawing Batanon
>>7852158good point, only problem is i never decided on a name so whenever i did mark my drawings its with this little face
I usually only draw stuff like this rather than full "completed" drawings.But I'm still very proud of this one, came out pretty nice.
>>7860505Will do, anon! Cheers.
As far as I can figure, this is my first completed work of the year. I love my wife.
>>7848659>blueskyIs it good or just FoTM social media site?
>>7847806Can you prove it that you're Shinda292?
>>7852096>why you would even ask something so silly?You're right, most straight men can tell when a woman or a gay man draw something aimed at them, the art always miss something like there's no sexual energy, no desire, it's just a generic naked woman looking at the camera, it's AI prompt / Sakimeme tier of boring slop.
>>7862057Idk it's just another place to put my drawings for me. I get slightly better engagement on there than on twitter.
>>7847848im back and i drew yesterday but im not posting it because i dont want to get cancelled for using 4chan but just trust me :^)
>>7852096>>7862117>gayIdk man, this doesnt look gay to me >>7858590. He tends to focus on his males a lot tho. So... bi?
>>7859044Keep practicing bro, the head is good but the rest can be beefed up. Jim Lee's a really good reference for Batman, as much of a cliche it is.>>7860840>good point, only problem is i never decided on a name so whenever i did mark my drawings its with this little faceThere's a few artists that sign there work with an object/face but those guys are fuckhuge in their following to the point everyone knows its them (mainly through their artstyle). Recommend you decide on a name cause that'll essentially be your brand and your foundation bro! >>7862113>Can you prove it that you're Shinda292?Here you are Playa, I haven't drawn Jinx in so long but that's one of my most famous pieces lol >>7863409post it>>7865438>He tends to focus on his males a lot thoNah I got an answer for that because a lot of people are usually surprised by how well I draw men.Before the hentai I drew hypermasculine grimdark musclebound men in lots of armour in violent situations so my knowledge of male muscle anatomy was already there, then I started drawing women more seriously
>>7847806
You know, I don't really shinda's art personally, but I can respect the consistency and he actually finish his artworks which is something I struggle with a lot
>>7847806first finished completed start to finish drawing was a study of a pregnant porn star
>>7865827first completed illustration was fanart of a chain chomp OC
>>7865830first completed commission was a sketch of another pregnant OC for a guy on DA
>>7865744i personally don't like his ""style"" but anyone who actually draws instead of constantly crab-screeches on this board automatically gets my seal of approvalalthough..>>7865720>layer 1435what the fuck
>>7865831I've started 22 pieces since January 1st and have completed 9 of them lol (which is not a great record - which is why my pile of unfinished work just never stops growing)3 studies4 paintings1 colour illustration1 sketch commissionpretty good so far. Favourite piece was pic related (series of 3 sketches for DAD challenge - probably only getting one done for the deadline tho)
>>7860882blog?
>>7865733>dat ass
>>7860505>>7865720I gave Batman another shot, this time a color pallete that reminds me of Batman on NES and Batman Returns on Master System, always liked purple Batman and the yellow accents for me just pop really nicely, tried to make them more gold looking too.
First art I posted for 2026
>>7867417is that a pee pee?
>>7847806I’ve completed three full drawings since the start of the year, and this is the first one. My art is kinda bad, but great art is motivating, and I hope I can get to that level someday.
>>7865744>>7865838Thanks bros, I tell other young/struggling artists to always be drawing regardless of their current quality and to sign their works, including WIPs because that's how you learn/improve/excel. For me the reason I draw so much is because it's both my literal job now AND I genuinely love drawing. I 've drawn so much the past 4 years ever since finally monetizing my art that I'm unironically immune to mental burnout and and physical carpal tunnel.>ex. If I get bored of a specific piece I'll "take a break" from it by drawing something else, and once I'm good I'll go back to what I was working on. I implore and assure you all that curbing your perfectionism (which all us artists have) and drawing regardless of what others say is the way forward. And always sign your work, even sketches and WIPs! >>7865827A bit freakish Playa but your shading/lighting is really goodContinue! >>7867155Thought it was Babs from the thumbnail but clicked on the pic and it's a colossal improvement from the previous bro, well done and keep going! >>7867417>>7867913Sign your work Playas
>>7847806my projects take months and i cycle through them depending on whatever my autistic special interest is at the time. i can't really think of the last project i've "finished" as i always inevitably go back into old projects to improve them when my skill level increases.today, i finished the aft shield generators on deck 2. that's about it.
>>7868891>Sign your work, PlayasI will start from now on. I never thought it was important.> I've drawn so much the past 4 years, ever since finally monetizing my art How long did it take you to reach the level of skill needed to be monetized?
Last year I made a finished illustration. This year I will make two or maybe even more than that.
Here's my first. added a bg later, but i dont like it. hands hurt more often than not, so it's hard to get in the mood to work.
>>7869320oh fuck im an idiot. that captcha got me feeling a certain way.
Very proud of this, can't wait to do more.
>>7852096Imagine being this insane and obsessed.
>>7869843kawaii
>>7868950Very cool, more of thisI don't have a lot of time for personal art, but when I do, it's warhammer stuff. I started doing requests to boost motivation to draw outside of work
>>7869843PLEASE DRAW MORE OF FAR RIGHT GIRL I LOVE HER ToT
>>7869843Very eroi, ejecting inside sleeping gorls is saikou..
>>7872664worry about your own life blud
my finished piece definition is quite loose
>>7872670this board used to be my life and now its infested with soulless fotm brownoid coomers like (You)
>>7869158>I will start from now on. I never thought it was important.It's very important + also make sure you date it too for both archival purposes and for future reference to see how far you've come! You have a nice artstyle bro, it's time people know who drew it. >>7868950This is really cool and I genuinely know whatchu mean, I'm primarily a character artist but I do wanna set aside time to autistically tackle layouts like these for ships/buildings/etc. >Covenant EscortBased fellow Halofag >>7869260Show us! >>7869320>>7869321>hands hurtI shit you not if you really get into drawing more consistently it will unironically go away. I'm essentially immune to shit like carpal tunnel and hand cramps now Keep going Playa, your style has potential for some robust action setpieces just based on how angular your character is >>7869843Genuinely cute as fuck and it's very relaxing visually Sign your work going forward >>7871807>fulgrimAsshole character RIP Ferrus but this art is fucking amazing and the way you drew his detailed armour is astounding, continue Playa! >>7872671Very nice, sign your work going forward. Out of curiosity how long did this even take you and did the eyes take up most of your art time?
>>7847806Mine's this. I'm pretty proud of it.
>>7847806I think this is the most "complete" draw ive made not in 2026 but ever lmao. I dont remember drawing backfrounds before at all.
Drew a pic of my wife to start the new year right.
Better late than never I suppose
>>7873652how long did it take to draw this?
>>7873970I probably spent 2-3 of those hours idling, so i'd say 9-10 hours hours. yes i know its long i'm pretty bad at working fast
>>7873369where can I find the full nelson grace howard? it's not on your twitter so I can't masturbate to it
>>7847806its always good seeing gmi artists on this board, but ive also been schizo nervous that i cant learn to draw from imagination, ive progressed from nothing to something but also now im in a spot where idek if studying references all the time is really helping me, and idek if i can even make it anymore, posting to 0 audience seems really bleak
>>7874656It was never about the audience. If you can't make art for yourself, and only yourself, you won't understand. Outward appreciation comes later. It must come from you, not someone else. Once you do that, you'll be ok.
>>7874656If ur studying references and not gaining anything from them they aren't intentional studies. To see if your study actually had intention, you have to test the skill you were trying to refine after you did the study. Whether that means drawing a form from memory, something in perspective, applying color, texture, etc. A study without application is like studying for an exam but never taking the test/project. That's not there to make you feel good, it's there to see if you actually understood what it was you were learning. I see many people waste so much time doing studies the wrong way. They just copy without actively trying to refine a specific fundie or skill.
>>7847806been meaning to post in this thread.
>>7873369>>7871839>>7871803I'm glad you liked it, I want to draw more of these.
>>7874743Damn those legs and feet are completely fucked. Same with her arm and hand on her knee, did you have a stroke?
>>7874747Give me your blog, I WILL draw fanart of your girls
Huh, I had forgotten about this thread. My first "finished" image was for that nose girl thread that had turned into an impromptu /dtiys/ thread.I've been doing plenty of grinding and studies, no so much finished pieces outside of that though.
>>7873369>>7869321ive been drawing for 20 years. hands hurt from my day job, which aint going away lol
>>7874755is she jewish
>>7876059I think she was greek? Regardless, she had a massive honker, and a jaw we could only dream of having >>7846866.
>>7876059>>7876068she is spanish, a lot of spaniards have long faces like englishmen
>>7876086nice
First thing I finished this yearA request for an anon on /tg/Shit took me like 12 hours since I have no idea what I'm doing
>>7877638Very nice
>>7866889>>7865733More like, what's with that dress? First it covers just half of her ass and then it does completely when she's bent over
>>7874755yeah shes spanish
>>7874325>where can I find the full nelson grace howard? it's not on your twitter so I can't masturbate to itWhat, yes it is! Here you go Playa, this is the Base version, the Alts are on my Baetreon:>x.com/GurvirShinda/status/1843289406465089660>>7874747They're very nice and a visual cleanse for me especially since I'm either drawing r-rated lewd content or r-rated violence, it's a nice relief on the eyes, so keep drawing and sign your work bro!>>7875098>hands hurt from my day job, which aint going away lolIt can be mitigated (assuming you're in the same situation as I was) I used to work in a shitty warehouse doing manual labour and when I got home I would draw, the biggest obstacle for me was mental fatigue. Doubtless, continue!
>7873524>7873527>7873652>7873672>7873973Good stuff brahs>>7874743Damn son that's really nice. Not a FootFag but you did really well here Playa >>7874755>I've been doing plenty of grinding and studiesVery good, continue grinding and studying. Also look up artists that coincide with your own style or artists you just generally look up to and study their work. And make sure to sign yours as well, even WIPs or sketches>>7877638>12 hoursOne day drawing something like this will only take you a quarter of the time and with better results.Keep grinding Playa and make sure you visualize the completed image or something of an outline as it'll also shred your time spent!
>>7875098>futa
>>7882313>Very good, continue grinding and studying. Thanks man, and I will.>Also look up artists that coincide with your own style or artists you just generally look up to and study their work.Eh, I'm focusing on core draftsmanship skills (the fundies), rather than rendering or style for now, though I'll take your advice when I'm ready. I do admit, I almost seem to be leaning towards a style with my hatching, though I'm not sure where I picked that up - probably just laziness and not being bothered to learn how to actually hatch properly.>And make sure to sign yours as well, even WIPs or sketchesI don't see much point when I'm not posting anywhere other than here. When I'm ready to start posting art under an actual name is when I'll probably start signing my work... whenever that is.Anyway, thanks for the critique.
>>7882313>make sure you visualize the completed image or something of an outlineWhat do you mean by this?Have an idea of what I want to draw before I startAlso, all I've been doing is drawing what I want and sometimes doing gesture studiesWill it come naturally?
