Does the torso look alright? I might lower it more to sell the lean better

i think that lowering the torso may work, but don't redraw it, the torso is all right is just the position, in my opinion the sketch is good.

>>7873484
are you the permabeg schizo? if you are your opinion doesn't matter.

>>7873482
I think you could go either way on the torso. I'm a little confused where her left arm is going. If you do exaggerate the lean forward, you could drop her left shoulder a bit and have her left arm rest on her knee/thigh to balance the lean. I like the pose overall though.

Rat design because I want to do Redwall justice. The design you see drawn in brown was made by contour drawing. The others here are extrapolations; me attempting to “standardize” how these rats are drawn. My main concern is whether I’ve made a “front view” that looks consistent with the other angles, but I also wonder if it’s even necessary to make these front views?

Doesn't look too bad to me, it just looks like her elbow is very hyper-extended here. Usually a fully extended arm bends the other way.

At your current skill level, I think you're biting off more than you can chew by attempting different styles. You're already struggling to keep details consistent that shouldn't be changing in different styles (whether there's a visible scar under her eye patch, the height of that blue gem on her chest, etc). You're also not changing enough with each style, the coloring and linework is too similar which lessens the effect. The leftmost sprite is simple but appealing, if you stick to that style, work on your facial anatomy and the hair shape, I think you can make something nice.
Pic related is my edit. Just a guess but it seems like you don't draw the eye under the eyepatch, or the shape of the head that's covered by hair. Even if they're erased later, sketching where they are will make it easier to have things like the eyepatch and scar in the right place and at the right size. The other big thing is the elf ears. Be mindful of where they start on the head and how high you're having them end. Also don't forget to draw the eyebrows.

Retried the cat using a pencil instead of digital and I like it, still kinda wish had some colored pencils but I had fun.
I think the eyes are a bit less round than the original but otherwise I'm not unhappy.

Whats the thing to learn to draw goobers like this by yourself? figure drawing? Construction? Something totally different?

ah okay, thank you. will fix it. the more i look into it, the less sense it makes for it to be like that when the pose is kinda angled. appreciate it

Not directed at anybody on this thread, but more so based on behavior I keep seeing on plebbit. It's really obnoxious when somebody who is clearly skilled says something along the lines of, "Beginner am new to this" when their art is easily at ant int or advanced level. Like who are you kidding buddy? You want praise? Do you want people to glaze you and call you a prodigy? If you truly were that good you'd have already been discovered by now like the 17 year old animator that got picked up for his amazing animations. Not once did that fucker say he was a beginner by the way, he didn't need to lower the bar for people to glaze him, he was just him. Anyways, just wanted to rant.

When did you learn you shared this board with heartless creatures?
The truth is that art is what we experience it as. No matter if it is cleanly in the lines. True art should make you feel something. If it doesn't, it isn't art.
It could be a white speck surrounded by a sea of black. If that white speck had a world of effort and care put into it, you could certainly see (and feel) that.

Laughably wrong. You have no idea how many top notch draftsmen Chinese, European, Russian, Korean and Japanese art schools pump out every year. People who mog all /ic/ a thousand times over. And where do most of them end up? Doing art for postcards or shop bags or best case some indie video game designs for pennies. 99% of skilled artists are nobodies. Unless you consider having any paying art job "making it".
People who make it either have soul AND peak skill or their SOVL is so overflowing it doesn't matter their art is shit. The bottom line is, skill is irrelevant. Soul is what people really care about. You can only earn some autism cred if you nail perspective and that's all.

Using a fully sharpened pencil with a needle point tip all the time is a mistake. You can only get certain line types by changing the shape of the tip. You don't need to sharpen it into a wedge, you can simply use a piece of scrap paper to "burn off" some of the graphite until you get the shape you want. Eventually after many many hours of using the same brand of pencil you'll have an intuitive sense for how your pencil behaves and you can be more economical in how you make your lines

That means a whole lot coming from you Gigawolf!!! Thanks! It really makes me wonder what would you consider something cool and worth of investing talent. When I was a kid I was obsessed with Shirow, and my dream was to be good enough to make a continuation of the Appleseed Hypernotes in that style. ultimately, even Shirow himself gave up on all of that "cool shit", and became a seil-indulgent unhinged coomer, and it took me years and years to cope with the "tragedy", but at some point I understood the guy. He fulfilled his vision, but then the corp wanted him to become a dead self replicating machine. He wanted to live, to go through the crazy slide and "have fun". Now they kept rehashing ghost in the shell, every time I see that scene remade again and again of Motoko falling backwards or opening a hatch half naked, I get furious at how stupid and pathetic that obvious gimmick has become. Kim Jun Gi had a similar situation, he said it, if he wouldn't have handlers all around him keeping him in check he would be drawing coom shit all day. So there's something there, about happiness and freedom to truly enjoy yourself through this "thing".. I'm still trying to understand it.

>>7874433
problem is that you're using not being deliberate or careful enough with the planes of the forms and instead relying on the textured edges of your brushes in places that don't need to be that way. i was able to paint over your work with a hard round brush with barely any pressure and only used an airbrush to soften edges when necessary. if your shape of the jaw and teeth are more accurate it will look more realistic even using flat areas of colors first. you may also want to invest into buying a proper reference skull as they are relatively cheap.

>Kim Jun Gi had a similar situation, he said it, if he wouldn't have handlers all around him keeping him in check he would be drawing coom shit all day.
I saw that video when he said it. Not saying that it caused his death, but having that constant frustration all the time surely wasn't good for his overall health. He was an unapologetic gooner through and through: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzK4OGSXSWk

sorry anon, I can't shade myself, so I can't help you with that. but the other guy seems to be right, you need to introduce more values to your rendering, since now it only has two

big cock head = small cock, proportions wise the trunk gets bigger before the head does. So if that cock was supposed to be dad's you should tone down the head
Also the head is more square than long, its more natural to make it 1:1 instead of making it longer
>>
>>7874605
very good advice, ty anon
I always make the head too big bc when I draw it smaller I feel like it looks like a silly little hat

I'm watching someone draw digitally for the first time and holy fucking shit, how is this not cheating? Rendering, shading, highlighting, heightening values lowing values, copy pasting, ctrl+z, filters, brushes, brushes BRUSHES do all the work for you. There must be a phenomenon of artists that produce well liked work who put a pencil in their hands couldn't draw for shit right?
>>
>>7874710
I do digital but I don't treat it that way. Embracing mistakes and painting over them. Never liked copying and pasting. It is just simpler and easier than an easel and brushes and oils...
And if you have a phone or tablet wasting away, you can get started just like that

Soulmog is the worst kind of mog. At least when you see a more skilled artist, you can cope and say to yourself you'll be there too one day. Soul on the other hand can not be taught or learned.

How many boxes do I have to draw before learning other stuff
>>
>>7874733
Until you can draw a straight line, which you can't.
>>
>>7874734
That’s not true howbeit
>>
>>7874728
Why not?
>>
>>7874733
You won't learn to draw anything other than boxes if all you do is grind boxes. Just start drawing what you actually want to draw

thanks for the feedback. I'll practice more with a basic hard round brush. For both skulls posted I just used 1 brush which I liked, everything done in 1 layer (except background and cast shadow on the floor), but I didn't really think about the brush itself.
