>>7882145He just happens to know that you're lactose intolerantprepare to die.
>>7882149> Just happens to knowYou don't need to cover for him, I know he's racially profiling me. Jokes on him, I think that's kinda hot.
Update, I'd already posted here. Wanted to ask if y'all thought the face/head was alright, or if not. Would appreciate it.
>>7882204His face looks a bit scary, but in a way that's cool, I think it's because the lower canines, and lack of pupils. But I think structurally his head is constructed correctly, I don't see anything immediately wrong with it at first, nothing obviously crooked and such.
I cant hands
>>7879061don't do furry stuff but this tiger girl has become fun to draw.
>>7882918That's how it starts.She's cute, and nice gazongas.
>>7882841go catoony and draw puffy gloves until you get good at regular hands.
>>7882841construction can be fun too, but im not an expert
>>7882918Really cute art, I'm a big fan of how you filled in the hair with individual strokes. Have you posted more of your stuff in other threads or do you have any socials I could follow?
>>7882841>>7883275Chommang's videos on hands helped me, although I don't suggest to use this as the only source. Keep seeing other stuff and copy from artists that understand and know how to draw them.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAhHgPZASYQ
What’s your favorite anthro to draw? I’m always stoked when I draw pandas.

>>7881438Finished, tried out gradient maps, and they were good, but I touched it up later freehand.
happy with how this is coming out. going to keep refining it. i drew his abs despire knowing i would need to cover them up with a washcloth later.i just like drawing abs
I kinda hate my process especially the overly precise lineart but I really like how it looks. I wish I could learn to relax and agilize my process while not hating a more "flawed" result cause finishing a commission takes me like a week at best.
some little refsheets i'm making for a game... they'll be models lateralso drawing with a phone with only your finger sucks
>>7884217I think that precision pays off in the end, that lineart and those forms are crisp.
Fine fuck this shit thread
>>7884225Is it gonna be something like Advance Wars, or a tactics game?
Some really good stuff in this thread! Trying out a pixel brush for this, maybe I should lean into the chicken scratch to give it a more crunchy texture? Background is going to be corn, I'll have to really think about this so I don't end up spending a million hours rendering leaves.>>7883692I'm a basic bitch who loves cats. Lithe and flexible! >>7884143Very nice poetry and rendering! Only improvement I can suggest is that it seems her horns are asymmetrical.>>7884165Looking good! What's that brush with the smiley face?
>>7884503>it seems her horns are asymmetrical.I think you're right, worse yet, it seems I completely misaligned the horns because I angled the line of her brows completely wrong.I do struggle with symmetry sometimes, so this is not surprising, but I gotta stay on the lookout for mistakes like this.
Braixen!Nice to see the thread’s still alive, a bit slow but alive!
For your scalie characters, do you prefer slits or humanoid?
>>7884143It truly looks like something from those very old games.The horns are not alligned.

Mewgenics sticker doodle
>>7893167I just drew a frontal shot of a furry lady of dubious species and now I got the itch of making a full character sheet for her.Also, very huggable panda 10/10
>>7890351Nice, he's hot and the cheetah is cute, obviously, but also the background frames the whole thing nicely, people rarely bother making them. Plus, the fact that the piece is not explicit gives it a teasing playfulness that straight-up porn in its banality could never provide, it's the kind of blueballing that stops short of sating you but keeps you yearning for more. I mean, where would the fun be if it were all on display on a silver platter, know what I mean? The awestruck cheetah, the grumpy hunk of a tiger... A fun piece all around, well shaded too
>>7890289Nah, you can still be good and weaker at one subject.
forgot how long this shit can take>>7892064great pose>>7893167god i love pandaren, they are half the reason i end up resubbing, the other half being worgen.
>>7893167Hopefully half good as yours.
>>7893556What slutzard.Animation is hard work, I really admire people who take up the effort to learn it, cute lizard, and I like your worgens too.
>>7894471I barely manage to make a flat drawing. How people even learn to animate?
>>7894473Probably a lot of dedication and a bit of obsession. Seeing a drawing you made and planned moving must feel really gratifying.And if you go by the animator's survival guide, learning animation is mastering a bit of cinematography, framing, movement and other animation fundamentals by grinding these skills over and over.
>>7894477It's a lot of hard work yes, but it's actually less than what it looks like when you realize you don't need to bring every frame to a perfect finish. People aren't going to stare at a single frame for several minutes noticing every little mistake. It's only really the keyframes that people will notice, everything else is there just to support the illusion of motion, and can be a little dodgy.And then when you look at a lot of modern animation and anime they employ a hundred different cheap tricks to avoid fully animating things the way the classics did. A character just standing there talking with their mouth going with two frames for minutes etc.The way Richard Williams teaches it is how to do it the hard way.
Any tutorials how to draw reptile heads?
Made another sticker lol
>>7893836I really like how you go out of you way to give your characters well-developed relationships
>>7894473start with simple 2-4 frame animations to get a feel for things, then slowly learn some of the basics like timing/spacing.dong chang had some decent videos on YT. the animators survival kit is pretty good too
do you guys think this is good?
>>7897800I think it's cute
so, im kinda new to drawing (started last fall)but was kinda happy with how this turned out!

Hey anons, I'm ditching one of these sketches cuz i didn't like where i was going with them, if you guess wrong you'll hurt my feelings but at least you'll give me the realest advice pls do that>>7897901I do not believe you are new to drawing at all, this looks very well thought-out and with tons of practice behind>>7893836Cute as fuck and your style has a very unique personality. Reminds me of very early furry art/cartoons from the 90's>>7890278This is great, can't wait to see how it will turn out when finished. I can tell the style you're going for (with the background specially), very nice work!>>7890351Great everything. Very tasteful while still decently goonable and funny, love the expressions

Glad to know updated captcha means you still cant reply to more than 5 posts at once.>>7900521You know this would probably work as a merger where you have both as one poster-image. Some kinda "Think you can drink on a Sunday? Think again, our Goddess SEES ALL*."/bottom text/*"bring her a pint or else"Both pics vibe super hard, guess this is where you just get stuck and go back to them in a month. (or merge into one poster pic, no text needed, just one slightly ominous super cool pic. Because it vibes super cool.)>>7893556Morrowind OST -> tracklist -> "Nerevar's Rising" I finally get why they named the track this way.
>>7900521I initially read both pics together and my impression was that the figure on the left was like, a deity judging if you could hold your liquor during the ceremonial libation. But I'm going to guess you ditched the one on the right because it's less resolved. And because the triune is really cool.

>>7896301Thanks. I feel like that’s important to defining (or contextualizing) the personality of the character, and opens doors for different scenarios for them to be used in. >>7900278That’s really flattering to hear. I’ve been a fan of your art for a long time, so that means a lot. >>7900521You’re right on the money. Some of the foundational influences on my style are the 90s WB cartoons. >>7901109:)

Need help with coloring.Every time I do it I hate how it looks, like just from the base colors it looks weird to me.How would you color something like this? It's all in one layer, except the grayish background of course.
OK forced speed-doodle practice done now I can goof around and eat crackers and Dutch gouda!>>7902717"Ya that's right! When I say where's my lunch money I mean YOUR lunch money and I mean it NOW!"> I feel like that’s important to defining (or contextualizing) the personality of the character, and opens doors for different scenarios for them to be used in.It works. I don't really use deviantArt so I can't follow you there but the images/characters "feel" anchored and "belonging to a greater whole".Speaking of, saw the new update with "no one downloads images so were capping DLs at 10 images a week/40 a month for nonpaying, 150 for paying users"? After their attempts at NFT support and selling AI gens I wonder how long dA will last now?
She started as a little doodle and ended up with a full turnaround because I liked her big toofs. And also because I thought a turnaround would be good a good exercise.Only things I'm a bit uncertain about are the color choices and maybe the outfit being a bit too busy, but I like how her birthday suit came out.
I think ima keep drawing them..
>>7903586>>7903297Good pink gloss on worms, anon!

It's super cool, and the character's expression sells her. Totally draw more of her!
>>7879061I am trying to draw an anthro version of Marshmallow from Mewgenics.https://files.catbox.moe/zzbrnh.pngI've run into this issue I always struggle with in more involved perspective setups, where I can't figure out how to draw these heavily stylized heads, in perspective, and not have them come out looking like goofy mascot heads, or other related issues.Any advice? I need to adjust how I'm approaching this in such a way that it stops being such a massive problem for me in the future.(I know I need to revisit proportions to make them match the stylized ref on the side)
>>7902367He’s just a lean kid who knows how to take care of himself.>>7902717I’m flattered you’re a fan a my stuff, man. If you ever wanna chat sometime lemme know, I’m on X and Discord.
>>7904318When it comes to stylized heads in extreme perspectives I tend to treat it like drawing a circle/bump on a sphere.But this just applies to flat or cartoony faces. I'm not sure if you want the eyes bulging out or not but based on your angle tryouts on the left of your sheet, I am assuming that is not the case.
>>7900721Its finishedddd

I managed to finish this illustration of Morgan!>>7907984Find an artist who draws anthropomorphic characters that inspire you and reference their work, and incorporate different aspects of their design for your taste. If you are a beginner, I would look into the book called 'How to Draw Manga Furries', which is an amazing book filled with great examples and learn how skeletal structures work across different species. You can learn and do small studies by drawing real-life animals from life or photos.Here are two good videos that come to mind when learning how to draw anthro characters. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlP0bEOGfCghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPdBlf1vLMM
>>7907996sounds like a good plan! I actually already had my eye on Ovopack as someone who inspires me. I'll try and do studies of his art and refs from animals.Thank you for the vids will check them out.

>>7911908you go for a tight style with thin lines so it's bound to look a bit sterile if that's your concern but if you use complementary colors with saturated shadows you can change that feel

>>7915086Beautiful work, absolutely gorgeous
>>7918587pls blog these guys are so cute
are scalies welcome?
>>7879061My first time ever posting in this general but I guess my subject matter for this drawing goes here. Nice to meet you all.
>>7918625Depends, do you have a maid outfit?>>7918386Oh it absolutely is, but you know what brain does to you once you use something for years.And that, I'm pretty sure software will become incompatible before the actual hardware corks out.>>7916675They look like they absolutely WILL tell everyone you didn't buy that brand new Tupperware set every other girl got at the book club meetup's sale.(maybe buy more cement?)>>7918318Nice of him to bring a new toothpick for the local dragon.
>>7906691>>7903586And she still has no name....
>>7919159>DogBitch>DB>DeeBeeDebbie? Probably shouldn't be a Debbie, but she's super cute nevertheless! Lets just hope the skinwalker shirt is just a metal band logo shirt and not anything more.
>>7918587fell completely in love with this piece. really perfect characters and beautiful colors. everything’s incredible, really.>>7918625great draw! yes, come in, come in.>>7919216pretty deck. feels like a cool, airy space, I’d like to sketch there. cute fur, and is that a tennis ball?
>>7919216Furry stuff in trad just hits different.It's like seeing a wild animal in your backyard when you're used to only seeing it on tv.
>>7918587God I love my homeland
>>7919723wait this is so epic dude, i love bucees
>>7918625got a blog? Would absolutely love to keep up with your work
>>7918907Finished. Does human male x female anthro counts for this thread? had lot of fun doing this so I might keep doing something similar.
>>7919888Why does that fox look like piss?
>>7919957I don't know, ask digimon creators lol
>>7919957Needs to drink more water
>>7918625Add slit and say it tastes like green apple lemonade!
putting some finishing touches on the little guy
Good enough to transfer to watercolor paper or are they missing something? I know the hands are dreadful, I'll lose the details with watercolor anyways.Also, what color backgrounds the dog is blue and black.
>>7898784pretty good, blog?
Would marker outline ruin it?Maybe partial marker outline on the darkest parts?
not a furry or a furry artist. but i did do this for a friend whom i owed, thoughts?
>>7922343More like just on the rear side of that near arm, so it’s easier to tell it from the backside. Everything else can be left alone, just because watercolor I always like seeing watercolor.
>>7922367My thought is sexo.
Its been a minute lads
>>7922451Also been working on this one
>>7922451HURRY WHAT'S YOUR BLOG BEFORE YOU GET BANNED ON THE SFW FURRY ART THREAD
>>7922454ope, mb lolickarus.bsky
>>7922378Yeah, its missing a certain depth (in more than just the arm/back), I'll play with some of the smaller brushes tomorrow.May make a second version as I don't think its good enough for a small alternative gallery
how can i stop being shit at art
Idea ive been thinking about im gonna render this
>>7923384You're not shit dude- all the forms are there, proportions are solid. Just like, add some some shading man.
Stretchy
>>7923671Thank you for the reassuring words, my friend. Is this somewhat of an improvement?
>>7922367Go back to Brickadia
>>7923850Yes! I think this is honestly a super cute and fun. My suggestion would be to work on pushing your colors and values more.For value, one thing that I find helps is to convert the image to black and white and see how it reads. If it reads ok, your values are fine, if not- push them a bit more. As for color- the best advice I can get is be bold. The blue on your bird shouldn't just be one version of 'blue' that is lighter or darker- it should ideally be a slightly different type of blue for each.Pic related- I took a piece of mine and yours and desaturated them. Notice the differences in value ranges? Also, take a look at the fox's pants. Notice how they're tan, but not just "Light tan, medium tan, and dark tan"? Each color is a completely different color.Keep it up! (Also I would totally let that bird sit on my face lol)
Are my sketches at fault or is my ink and color pass fucking it up? I really liked this sketch but after inking it just looks like fucking dogwater. I'm mad at myself for it, I feel like I fumbled it at the last moment. I am ultra /beg/ I know my shit sucks, I just want to know where I should focus.
>>7924088nta, but your piece is really pretty. How do you personally manage values while coloring? Do you toggle de-saturation while you paint and adjust on the fly? Go by feel and then post fix at the end? Start with a method like grisaille and then add color later? Or something else?
>>7922367Show us the whole thing faggot
>>7924674It's just a cock piece likely. OC belongs to a trannyfaggot. Not worth it.
>>7924737That's precisely why I wanna see it
>>7924742Do reverse image, it's likely that this image is public.
>>7924424For the inking part, you might watch this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aKb4Z7iMOwSketches are never a simple line, which makes them look better.
>>7924581Aww thank you!It's kinda hard to describe I guess. I tend to try and paint opaquely- meaning I'm not always building up layers of color and value- I'm literally trying to pick the color and value that I want right from the color picker. If it's wrong or looks weird I pick another color. Once I get things in a "good enough place, I'll then go back and adjust colors by lightly layering other colors over it with a brush, or by using color modifier layer over the entire painting to bring all the colors into concert with one another.An important thing about modifier layers though- I've found that when I use thrm, I have to go back and paint opaquely over things again because it tends to destroy values/saturation. If I had to offer any advice on how to get better at values, it's to understand how chroma (aka saturation) works. I think we tend to perceive highly saturated colors as much lighter or darker than they actually are. For whatever reason, saturation is just fucking hard to deal with, and once I started getting better at that, my values got better as a result.Hope that helps!
I decided to try something WAY to difficult for my current level to figure out what I need to study.I'm going to stop here and do some studies for a while and then come back to have another go at it.I need to sketch and plan out the piece more. Only had a vague idea of what I wanted. Didn't even design the central character much. He's not supposed to be naked. I just didn't think. Values are all over the place, and so are colours. I will do a bunch of those 2-value studies and go from there.He is stiff and his action is not clear. Gesture and anatomy knowledge is not very good yet, so that is number two, along with silhouette studies.I need to use more references because I got stuck with even simple things.>>7920151I like this guy of yours. The red under the eye is a great touch.
>>7925754I'm pretty much in the same boat (but procrastinating way more), and I'm drawing also features a black powder firearm so the shared detail gave a chuckle.I have heard both pros and cons to trying to make a complicated piece that's over your skill level, but I find that when you really want to see it finished it'll probably help you in the long run because you'll stop and study in parallel to your main project. That said, I can already read your idea pretty well.
>>7924088thanks for the sugg., your art rulesi wasnt really able to make the colora pop much more due to my eyes going borderline crazy due to strain, but i hope this is still somewhat of an improvement
>>7925760>black powder firearmNice. Please do post it when done.Main reason I want to go back and try again later is to have visual confirmation that my skill actually improves.I think it will be good for morale.
>>7925771You are mogging us>my eyes going borderline crazy due to strainDo you have your monitor set much brighter than what it's supposed to be?I have mine set to 140 nits.
>>7925785I think if you train values by doing studies like you said you'll see a good difference, darker shadows and brighter lights, and understanding how to use them to direct the viewer's attention, makes a noticeable difference. I had to study values separately to properly finish a painting and it really helped me.
>>7925771I'm pretty shocked that any brighter than this would give you eyestrain.I'm with the other anon, is your monitor/display tablet set to be really bright? Because this is a pretty dark image overall. Can you compare it to other displays? I'd love to help with some rendering suggestions but the brightness issue should probably be sorted first.
Finally finished:
>>7925815haha nope, just having a pretty bad migraine episode atm
>>7926112its mostly just because my current bout of migraine gives me a nice combo of double vision and dry eyes if i do it any brighter, so this is the sweet spot where i can still tell things apart without being blinded haha
>>7926138Very soulful, anon
>>7926183I see, that's a pickle. A lot of the critique I'd give would just have to do with the contrast levels. Not much to be done about it if you're doing it to avoid making migraines worse though.
>>7922451>>7922453Fertile
>>7926138Damn great job with the background emulating elements of Tibetan art. The little bit of texture and the blending style even make the colors feel a little bit like tempera or low-dilution gouache. This is a very cool piece.
Silly thing im doing for a buddy
>>7926742Love big tiddy dino men
>>7926742Bro needs to lay off the HFCS

catfailure oc sketcheswhat do you guys think of her>>7924562niceblog?
>>7879061i hate furries
I'm sad this thread is dying, because I love the OP image.
How do people shade/color a drawing? I can create a (somewhat) workable sketch but I have no idea how to move forward from there.
>>7930657I'm not to well versed in digital drawing, but usually some multiply, overlay, or light layer with very light opacity brushes and colors that aren't too saturated (as multiply literally multiplies the values, or others make it to where it raises the floor or lowers the ceiling on the RGB values).I'd say the sketch is good, but the thumb for the hand next to the head is on the wrong side. You could basically just remove it and it would look fine (as I don't believe you would see the thumb anyway with how it is angled).Also just make sure to actually sketch the shadows casting to make sure they are consistent between each other.
>>7930647That donkey is super cute agreed.
>>7926742Can you give me that dinosaur wojak please
>>7931033nvm found it. Great rendition of that dinojak btw
>>7930657i usually start by blocking in broad colors to get a general sense/feel of the picture's palette, i think that tends to help a lot.sometimes you have to avoid putting too much detail or sharpness on the background if you want the foreground to grab the viewer's attention, this can be accomplished with lineweights but if you're painting you can try the aforementioned blocking in technique and then not touching it up too much until you know how sharp your foreground is. Negative space and framing can also do a lot of heavy lifting. In your case you could try pulling your vanishing point down a bit and throw a dark vignette around the elements in the bottom cornersa pitfall I've noticed with lots of artists struggling with backgrounds (including myself) is that they are treating the background as an afterthought; many will start out with a simple pinup and then add a background later, which can lead to them feeling disconnected. I don't think it's correct to think that every picture needs or is improved by a background. Furries seem to trend towards this because of the ubiquity of standard commission sheet formats, which very reductively splits your work into character and background. I understand that it's for lack of a better way of doing things, but I think this is one of the reasons a lot of people think tacking a background onto drawings after the fact just makes them inherently better.Anyways, tangent aside, i think besides studying color theory and looking at references the best thing for coloring is to get messy and keep playing with hues and shades until things look right. Don't be afraid to think to yourself "man this section just doesn't look like it's the right color now that it's contrasted against this other section." and just redo it.
>>7930657There are so many ways...There are people who use mostly normal layers, and ones who use mostly blend modes.There are people who use only opacity, other ones who use low flow, even ones who use very opaque strokes.>>7931193>many will start out with a simple pinup and then add a background laterI am getting called out.
>>7931420hey I'm not saying it can't work or even that you shouldn't do it, just that you shouldn't get caught up on the idea that every picture NEEDs a background, or that the background will always improve it.I've seen many a artfriend ask "should i put a background on this?" and my answer is almost always that if you have to ask that question, then probably not. You didn't set out to make full scene piece, so if you have no ideas then probably best not to overthink it.
