>>7892984Where is my drawing? REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Guys, I discovered that I struggle with something.I have a lot of fun drawing and painting from life, be it still life work, figure drawing, landscapes. I don't really have to think much besides how I'm going to translate what I see to a flat surface and make it look appealing. It's not easy, but it's not THAT complicated either. Now don't get me wrong I'm not trying to brag her.The issue is, I'd love to dive a little deeper into story telling, maybe making a comic, I love the idea of combining story telling with more analogue ways of printing.But I really have no idea how to write a story, or how to even come up with a story, where does a story even begin? Does it just 'come to you'?

Idk how to do environments
>>7893036needs a more dramatic angle. it feels too static and symmetrical like this at least to mei would make that pillar thing even bigger, shift it either slightly left or right, tilt the whole composition slightly and maybe get some 2 point perspective going on. also make that platform the guy is standing on more visible because it's too indistinct. i mean i'm beg at environments too but this is just how i envision a ''beter'' version of it in my imagination. watch more movies

>>7893126Please go away you’re embarassing yourself.
>>7893166thx
>>7893136Your face proportions are off, you need to bring the face down the skull. The arm is too long the way you're doing it. The elbow crease is too far, its going into where the joint of the elbow would be. That's all I see, IDK really know much about anime faces or even who you're trying to draw.
>>7893136I thought this was supposed to be a dude until I read your filename. Sorry man, but this face is way too ugly for a loli/teen girl. Generally speaking you'll want to shorten the midface by moving everything down closer to the chin to give her a more youthful look. Look up official art of her and try to capture her likeness better since this is your biggest issue.

I'm a beginner with digital art, done some sketches and drawings in my past, but I am starting to be more consistent only now. This is my WIP I am work on right now. I will take any advice, critique, tip.I started doing something of a lineart and I am starting to feel like it loses soul the moment I do this and hide layers with the drafts... Can I somehow prevent this?
>>7893246It's obviously a tit!
>>7893183it takes years to get good. Don't expect quick results
>>7892986Thanks for the challenge. Here's a quick 20-ish sketch next to another one I drew.>>7892990I hope he comes back, anon. I love animals, cats and dogs especially.>>7893013Nice studies.>>7893057This is the opposite of spam. It's great stuff. Thanks for sharing.>>7893083Good shit, anon. Being a gym rat and drawing is the ultimate combo. Nice.>>7893089Lovely stuff.>>7893150It's good. I'd love to see it more rendered, anon.>>7893248Line-art has the magic ability to take the life out of any drawing, if you're not careful. If I were to do it, I'd make three to four sketches beforehand, just to get a feel of what I'm drawing. Line-art is a skill in and of itself, and it's difficult to master.

No clue why the image quality looks so weird, but why does the handle of the mug look wrong? I tried to draw it from a mug on my desk but I feel like its off somehow. The actual handle is slightly towards the viewer
any advice on shading? I really struggle when I try to keep it clean and cartoony without messy thick brush strokes with exaggerated lightning especially on hair I cant make sense of it at all
I'm trying to do evistons course but drawing something from life and making it look correctly 3D is incomprehensible to me. You're basically supposed to put a cylinder and a ball on a book / tissue box and draw it so it seems 3d, no shading or whatever but I can't even get the box to look correct as a start. I am greatly annoyed by that, thanks for reading my blog.
>>7893290that is why you should spend some times on copying things you like to train you eye to draw accurately.
>>7893296I thought that was the point of the course by copying things I see and putting them into a 2D space. Maybe I misunderstood it.Doesn't help that copying things from life honestly does not interest me at all. People say it's important but drawing characters doing goofy shit (even practicing while being bad) is alot more fun than getting the perspective of a tissue box right.
>>7893287Because you have no sense of perspective (which is okay, you are a newcomer)Next time try using construction lines even though your subject is very simple. It helps have a sense of placing things like the handle in perspective.What you could be practicing is drawing simple cylenders like that one, but instead of a handle, try placing a sphere in a way that looks natural. Draw a few different shapes at different angles and place spheres or other 3d shapes on top of them until your sense of space comes naturally.The book Fun With a Pencil is perfect practice for this. Early on it focuses specifically on drawing heads with this exercise, but really those fundamentals apply to pretty much everything.
>>7893263Huh, I haven't seen such nice freeform edges in a long while, like real snappy feel, actually felt every moment when my eyes passed from line to line.Real nice brush too, no idea what's it called though, never seen that edge to soft effect.
>>7893298Thanks for the advice, trying to place different shapes might be a good idea, I'll try
>>7893290Everything in drawing is incomprehensible until you bash your head against the wall enough times by doing it over and over until it clicks
I've been copying references for like 3 months, I literally have not learned anything besides how to copy
>>7893310Yeah, I'm too used to things being fast and easy, but I will keep doodling
>>7893313So try something else? Copying is an essential skill anyway.
>>7893343I don't know what to do now, I'm lost

>>7893297>Doesn't help that copying things from life Honestly, it does not interest me at all.you don't need to copy just from life. copy cartoons anime or any image you like to draw. i don't remember Bent Eviston's course at all need to check it. get very comfortable with copying first. then take any course you want.
>>7893356Nice micro, xis.
sorry for not posting in a bit, i (bird girl) havent been consistent.but the past couple days ive been doing busts of different critters ill be honest, its cause its easier than full body w/ scenes. i need to practice more proko instead of drawing just for fun

>>7893435The strongest...Why not ease up on the back light hitting the face and just make the the ice crystal she's holding as a secondary light source much stronger with a bigger radius to light up the face and ease the burden of the more rough back lighting for a double light contrast and a more dramatic shot? It would probably fit your theme better too.Cloth dynamics are good looking too btw
more gesture attempts. feels like i am slowly unlearning how to draw.Anything stupidly obvious i should do different? I am thinking I need to re-read some books, but thinking is why i tense up, pressuremax and fuck up quality and accuracy. drawing the redlines over pose 2 was ezpz compared to all that went into actually drawing attempt 2 at said pose.
>>7893467purpl monke!>>7893355is the lad's sleeves tied like that cuz he's a amputee?
>>7893511thx. Yeah, I went overboard with the light in the face but I wanted to create a clear siluete for it, and yeah, I will make the cristal she is casting a secondary lightsource eventually, just finishing carving the clothing first.

Is this anatomically correct?
>>7893299Thanks for the compliment. I try to keep my lines loose and quick when I'm doing sketches, while also trying to keep it tight and readable.The brush is nothing fancy, it's the Pencil-5 Tilted in Krita. It's very versatile, once you can work around it's quirks. I try other brushes, but nothing beats it for me.

obviously it looks incredibly off but I had funPerspective is supposed to be her looking up. What I notice in particular is that it feels like the arms are to long but I wanted her to place her hands at her hipsI'll keep working at it
can we discuss how to draw porn
>>7893599>but I had funThat's the most important part. Having fun is actually one of the best ways to improve, if you're conscious about learning to draw. It's going to do wonders, if you keep up the attitude, anon.I like the drawing. You might want to keep the perspective more uniform. It's a good idea to study how focal lengths influence the perspective distortion as well. Having a low focal length of 35 mm (which is one of the most common) is more pleasing to the eye, and it will help in combating fish-eye effect. Unless that's what you were going for.Pic related, not mine. Difference in focal lengths.
why's the thread challenge gone? I was gonna do it.anyways, new challenge for those interested.
Traced the umbrella
Drawing is bullshit, literally the biggest psyop ever. Had it been real, I would've been able to stick with it and actually learn.
>>7893603she actually IS supposed to be uncomfortably close. as in, standing within centimeters from you and looking directly up at you. I definitely feel like the representation of her head being angled up could have been better as well. All around the perspective is off. I've done my pages of boxes, but building bodies out of boxes still feels uncomfortable for now.

How do you build a body on top of a perspective grid? I still don't get it.
I want to kill the person who allowed AI to infest Pinterest.
>>7893826
How to tell yourself it's not illegal to not shade every drawing ever? Unsure if wasting 3+ more hours is even needed or if the average viewer would just think "good enough" and move on with what I already have
>>7893833you could "half ass" the shading and make it a little more basic each time. like just some shades here and there.
>>7893800Mnnn.The right arm angle might be a bit low, but it's hard to judge because the original pose is more of a leaning/floating gesture. Your redline reads more like she's standing upright, which wasn't the intention.

God, put me out of my misery
Commission I did today
>>7893876pretty cool but ease up on the post fx a little bit.
yah dude and also your lineart is kinda sloppy. which program are you using? maybe do it in a high resolution so your drawing is not that pixelated
>>7893821What exactly are you struggling with and how are you trying to use it now?Typically you don't have to since in 95% of drawings every part of the body is roughly the same distance from the vanishing point. The only time it would be useful is dutch angle type scenarios like picrel where one or more parts of the body are significantly further from the vanishing point than the others. Note how in this drawing the sides of the head don't trend towards the vanishing point, thats because the neck is bent so the top of the head is (basically) the same distance from the vp as the bottom of the head. If you making a drawing like this I would start by placing the vp and then drawing two converging lines to represent the outer legs/torso. These should be contained within those lines. This doesn't mean everything needs to be parallel. You can see in picrel that the hips are cocked, so the inner thighs don't converge towards the vanishing point and the body left side of the legs/torso don't perfectly follow the perspective line. For that you just need to kind of eyeball it a bit.
>>7893885Forgot pic
>>7893885My problem is more of a "how do you implement it" sorta thing.Because I cannot grasp how you lay out shapes in perspective, if you gave me a pencil and told me to try it, i'd just draw boxes using the perspective ruler as if i was drawing a machine or a building or a pile of crates floating in space and probably try to jam egg shapes inside those boxes. but when i'd have to bend over limbs or something i'd just wouldn't know what to do.its a bit hard to explain.
>>7893888Technically each set of parallel lines has its own vanishing point on the horizon line like the legs in that picture. Drawing a whole new perspective grid is unfeasible, so practicing until you get a feel for it is important. Sorry for my shaky lines btw, I'm phone posting.
>>7893800The shape design in the original is one of its biggest strengths. Your "corrections" just make it look more generic and less appealing to me.
>>7893604Had more fun and felt I did better with the last one.>>7893134 Still had fun with this. Tried fucking around with shadows, not sure how well I did.
>>7893885>in 95% of drawings every part of the body is roughly the same distance from the vanishing pointYou can't be serious.

Is it normal my drawings always look deformed when I mirror them? It almost seems to me as if I have to draw only with constant mirroring, otherwise it just doesn't look right when mirrored.
>>7893993Bro, that's literally what we all do. Mirroring your drawing is the best way to find mistakes.
>>7893993yes
>>7893593What do you mean?
>>7894017You draw with constant mirroring? I know you should mirror, but do you also have to di it constantly?
>>7894023I wouldn't say it's very off, but one example is the size of her iris' are different.
>>7894025yes
I think I messed up the pose a bit.
>>7894028Damn, then I actually need some kind of set-up, because I mostly draw trad.
so, im making another characteri want them wearing chainmail, is there any simple way to handle drawing chainmail in fineliner that doesnt end up messy?or did i just get myself into having to draw a lot of detail?
>>7894037look up how to imply detail with fewer strokes
ok, so im trying something after looking at examples, does this kinda work? or not really? (i havent finished, just want some ideas before i put time into it
30 minutes practice portrait from imaginationi cant tell if im going in the right direction or not
>>7894037I've drawn chainmail a few times. You can simplify them as little C shapes, and you can also use shading to sell the effect. Since you're using a fineliner, an example of how I'd do the shading on the right picture, is to shade underneath with a pencil and erase the graphite in C shapes to reserve the highlights, the lightly hatch with the fineliner under the graphite, and then lightly drawing the links while looking at a reference to get an understanding for how chainmail looks and behaves.>>7894058Oh, nevermind. Not only do you already get it but you also mogg me. I'm sold on the effect.
>>7893800cool nice lines
>>7893805bad art - soulfulgood art - soulless
>>7893993Very common. I spam Shift+I to make sure it doesn't happen and it still does.
finished it, hopefully the chainmail worked out well
>>7894107it’s very good, A would like to see a graphic novel with your animals
>>7894112tnx!!i have been thinking it could be cool to do something like that eventually. but i need to improve my landscapes/backgrounds, learning perspective better for more dynamic poses & stuff, and learning a little anatomy to draw full bodies well.
>>7894034Draw really lightly at first until you have the rough form mostly right, it feels like you drew parts of the body by themselves without considering the whole form.>>7893993Mirroring is a good trick but you can also work on being able to see the fucked up proportions without having to mirror. >>7893512I think the way you use the circles and straight lines for the underdrawing is keeping you from thinking about the 3D forms as much as you could be. Try to think in rhythms and edges instead of drawing the stick person and then adding the curve later.Anyone have any tips on not chicken scratching as much? Been doing timed hand studies and I feel like my cowardly lines are limiting the amount of texture I can show.
I AM TOO RETARDED TO DRAW. I AM FUCKING PERMABEG
Not much progress today. I don't want to spend more than 10 hours on this, so I need to wrap it up. Just a few details left, and then I'll move on.>>7893800gj, but it doesn't really work with what I have in mind.

>>7894165Capybaras, wombats
>>7894165Maybe a bat? One of the cuter one like foxbats or straw-colored bats.
>>7894177capybaras are super distinct, they'd be great!>>7894178ive been thinking about bats, but trying to consider that the best style would be, i love bats, i want to do them right!
>>7893800boring>>7893435love the hair render>>7894114lucky for you, backgrounds with your style can be as minimalistic as you want them to be, >>7893761This is the trad work i was mentioning

I CANT MOTHERFUCKING DRAW.
>>7894246>Unsolicited critique on 4chan ic, dedicated artwork and critique board
icantdravv bros... I think they got us...
>>7894258its still a fucking dick move. its not even a fucking redline what he did, he just redrew the whole thing on a higher technical level (not to say it has more soul, which it definitely doesnt, it looks like the most generic run-off-the-mill commercialised anime, unlike the original). so what exactly is the „point“ of this critique? original poster is not gonna improve from it because its just a whole new drawing, not at all focused on actually helping to fix flaws in OPs art. the entire purpose of this middle finger disguised as a redline was just a near-pro level artist coming in to shit on a beg and harvest attention. i really doubt this was anywhere near well intentioned but just on the off chance that it was, use your brains next time and have the common courtesy to ask „can i do this“ instead of just appropiating other peoples art for some (you) farming
theres a lot of things wrong with mumkhar here. I think his face definitely looks off. And I absolutely got lazy with the outfit details because there was a lot of them.Perspective isnt great but still I'm starting to feel a little more comfortable with building bodies from boxes and imagining said boxes in abstract 3d space.What could I do to fix his face in particular?
>>7894302To fix the face, Loomis/life drawing.
Fuck these clown shoes man
>>7894305When drawing shoes, start by drawing the sole of the shoes in perspective, on the ground plane, and then build the form of the shoe from there.
>>7894297dude, that redline probably took more than an hour. No one spends so much time just to clown on other anons. Of course it's meant as guidance. But it doesn’t help that he didn’t include any explanation for his redline, leaving the original artist completely in the dark about its meaning.
>>7894305something marie rose would wear to ballbust hung black men twice her size in blender webm on paheal.>>7892984decks 1, 2, and 4 are done. i have 7 rooms left in deck 3, but two of them are mirrors so that will be easy. this is my last covenant ship i need to retrofit.
>draw perspective with guides>looks correct but soulless>freehand draw perspective>looks like shit, but marginally more soul
>>7894318NTA but I pinky promise you that didn’t take more than an hour lmfao. Most of the work is already done and they already know so much, it probably took like 15 minutes
>>7894165you should redo the giraffe imo since it's the weakest of the batch there and doesn't really follow the style you established with most of the others
>>7894297holy newfagyou have no idea how lucky anons are to get an actual decent redline
https://www.instagram.com/blanketman048/>>7894165this is really nice
>>7894297Please return to reddit, DA, tumblr or whatever rock you crawled out from under
>>7894165Love this
I need a second set of eyes. I'm still sketching, but it looks off and I can't tell what exactly is making me think that or if its in my head
>>7894355Anatomy is pretty poor and the perspective/ forms aren’t well established. Ab Muscles don’t work the way you drew them, the upper arm isn’t so thick and the lower arm isn’t so thin.Take some time to study a master artist/from life and thoughtfully study anatomy
OH SHIT WE'RE BACK!>>7894231I wish so much that you were Pawell...>>7894208Amazing work as usual>>7894189Oh so the journal was real, I thought the dotted paper was a canvas texture xD>>7894165Beautiful>>7894156Pretty fucking cool>>7893970You're amazing beautiful piece>>7893792This is nice!!!>>7893686Fucking hot SAVED!>>7893600Lets>>7893528You're incredible
>>7894365People want me to be Pawell so bad it’s hilarious. I’d be rich if I had a dime for each time I’ve been compared to him lmfao
>>7894240made me lol, but in a good way
>>7894370Because Pawell made the very same studies but he was so fucking untalented that he never improved in YEARS.Talent >>>>>>>>>>> hard work
>>7894375Yeah I saw his work. It was really jarring to see someone draw so much but make such unnoticeable improvement. I hope he’s doing well now. IMO, hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard, but talent is king lol
>>7894375Looking at his work again, it seems so much like he simply doesn’t know how to identify his weaknesses and mistakes. When I do my studies, I analyze them and ask myself what I struggled with and what I need to do to conquer that struggle. It looks like he would have struggles but would just keep drawing instead of identifying exactly what went wrong in the drawing
>>7893990thanks! ^^
Memory sketches. Did the legs piece by piece but I’m happy with my progress nonetheless, gonna make an effort to draw from memory more these days
just wondering, i know this site prob doesnt care as much, but i care.how can i know if what i draw is culturally insensitive?like im thinking of doing a masai giraffe with traditional kenyan beadwork. but i want to make sure its respectful
>>7894397yea, i was def going to do more research to make sure i know exactly what im drawing. i just def didnt want to do anything wrong, like if it would even be disrespectful just to try doing it in my style
>>7894389Yeah that is just fucking talent>Hurr he could draw but he drew WRONG!Fucking talent.>>7894388He is working part time jobs because he doesnt have a career and his art never took off. Brutal compared to other anons who made it in months and are now raking in big twitter bucks.
>>7894404lol maybe it is just the talent talking. That stinks for him, especially because he honestly works harder than most anons on this board. If people on this board wanted to make it as much as Pawell did nobody would be a beg
>>7894404>twitter bucksHow do you make "big bucks" on twitter? Do you mean comms? Commission work sucks.
2 more critters!
>>7894416Lovely work! Keep it up. When’s that children’s book coming out?
>>7894418tnx! prob not coming out, im not good enough to make stories & stuff just yet. also, idk if itd be a childrens bookid like to make cooler books w/ cooler characters, like nagabe (i love his stuff!)
>>7894418but maybe starting with some small fun comic panels could be good!!
>>7894421Being "fun" requires another type of talent on top of artistic talent.
>>7893815I really like this one, it's really cool. >>7893838I like it, though I also highly enjoy drawing portraits, so I'm biased.>>7893876This is so cool, it looks fantastic. Nice job.>>7894069I love these kinds of tips and tricks. Thanks for sharing, anon.>>7894158It's important to be mindful of your health, especially mentally. I myself get eye strain, if I stare at the screen for too long, and my vision gets blurry. Besides drawing, what else do you enjoy? I usually go for a walk, which helps me a lot.>>7894266>>7894303>>7894346These are all brilliant studies.>>7894365Good to see you post again. Are you feeling better?>>7894416Absolutely lovely work, anon. I love them.
>>7894428P-pawell?
>>7894429Sorry to disappoint, no. We can all only aspire for mid-ness and stagnation.
>>7894428Thanks anon. Wonderful drawing as well, who is it?
>>7894435Thanks for the compliment. It's supposed to be Colin Farrell from The Penguin, though it's not 100 percent. Still, I like it.
>>7894416That little bat is entirely too adorable. I wanna smooch it.
>>7894415You get your blue checkmark and then draw shit that gets attention. Nihu said he was making 1k a month just drawing feet over and over.
how do you grow a twitter account?i made a new one andi was able to get like 24 followers the first few days but havent gotten any recently & have been getting less views & likes
>>7894322Why is it shaped like a rubber chicken?
>>7894444Idk, twitter is weird. It’s been the opposite for me, I’m struggling to get followers but have gotten lots of impressions and a few likes here and there. I think overall that consistency is key
>>7894451Looks more like the final boss from Elden Ring
Is this good?
I finally found that fucking Binary Pen for CSP.
>>7894297Kill yourself you retarded nigger. It's no wonder ints never stick around this shithole when they take free time out of their day to redline something and get samefagged by faggots like you shitting on them. He doesn't owe anyone further explanation and the original artist isn't obligated to use any part of his redline.
>>7894428>Good to see you post again. Are you feeling better?Professor! Thank you so much for asking! Very kind of you! Don't worry, I'm great, I'm just having a weird falling on the drawing aspect interest. I got bored, I need to do something radically different. Maybe reading, or catching up with other unrelated stuff. I have a lot of energy that just doesn't want to go into the "drawing task" lol. I dunno how to explain it.Pretty cool sketch as usual!>>7893604One more challenge>>7894462>Is this good?Yes!>>7893753This is cool!>>7893808Beautiful work!>>7893876This looks great! Congrats!>>7893988I love these you do, I get hypnotized looking at it.
>>7894472bro got mad his redline is generic and extremely boring lolyou ain't no simon
>>7894476Keep fighting ghosts, permabegbro.
Today’s lil sketcharoosky
>>7894480My signature maneuver
>>7894158It's really impressive how little you've improved considering I've seen you draw daily for basically an entire year.
>>7893988Love this, very trippy
>>7894474Have you thought to draw animals? I remember you did a wolf man not long ago, maybe more stuff like that to spice things up? Great drawing btw
>>7893876Great work, saved
>>7894478kek
>>7894481I love that bird like you wouldn't believe.
Rough sketch
>>7894489=) I can give you a li'l mouse seeping some tea, I hope you like it! Thank you! Yeah I can draw whatever, the problem is that the "act" of drawing is not "doing it" for me right now, I don't know, it feels like a chore. I need to "miss it" so the passion for it ignites again. I saw that many times on artists overwhelmed by commission work, they are stuck so deep into it, that they can't break away from it no matter how much they hate it, and they get suicidal. I can stop drawing whenever I want fortunately, lol.
i did these at the mall so they're rushed and awful but I'm considering today my first day of "trying to draw everyday again" and I'm determined this timei saw a convo about sobriety between two very good artists but had nothing to post because not been drawing and wanted to say it's really inspiring and brings me a lot of joy to see people talk about sobriety, im almost a month sober from alcohol and hoping to keep it going, it really helped my mood to read, I think lioness oc guy was one. thanks guys >>7894516love to see you peril cute mouse
>>7894518dumb idiot forgot the file award. Whoops
>>7894521Initial sketches
>>7894522>>7894521Good to see you leaving your comfort zone, keep it up
>>7894521>>7894522nice flats>>7894523I would fug the bug
>>7894518>love to see you peril cute mouseThank you Deer! See? I forgot I promised you an Egil, there you go.Beautiful drawing! If you can do one of those every day, you definitely can do whatever you want art wise. You're an artist.
>>7894532thank you peril, he's so cute i want to eat him alive. defenseless deer.... i appreciate the drawing very much, especially his antlers and shaded eyes.. thank you so much. and his massive thick cock..
>>7894532Do you use reference or is this all from imagination?
How do I get faster? I don't think I can learn much if I do one drawing a day that takes me hours because of my perfectionism(and even after all the hours I spend correcting it it still looks like shit), what can I try to break free from the curse of perfectionism aka refusing to fail?
>>7894556accept failing
>>7894556have you considered being born with talent?
so, i made a lot of characters, so i wanted to do a full body of them in scenes.i def think i want to redo the scene though at some point, not as clean as i want, & not as much details as i want
>>7894558Yeah but how, my self esteem is already low for this
>>7894556draw smaller, simplifyand then build up over time
>>7894562it is not about low self esteem, it is about high arrogancewhy would you think you'd be able to draw nice stuff fast if you have not practiced it? what makes you think you are already as good as other artists? who are you trying to impress? why can't you accept yourself how you are at this moment? don't you think it is ok if you do some bad drawings? if you get too emotionally attached to every single drawing instead of taking it easy and giggling about your mistakes, you will find yourself in a negative feedback loop where you don't draw, don't improve and start hating drawing, and the more it takes for you to improve the more you will hate it. now go and do some shitty drawings
>>7894560quickly redid the background & removed the night skyi def think it made it messier, & i think the different sizes, opacity, etc. made it less cohesive since its supposed to be single thickness fineliner
>>7894534No prob Deer! Here you have another Scared Egil, the cruels shaved his crotch for some reason, he's not used to feel his skin so unprotected and exposed there, just the air must feel so fresh and menacing, I hope they aren't planning to hurt him or do anything cruel right in that oh so sensitive part of his convulsing scared body. hee-hee.>>7894540>Do you use reference or is this all from imagination?Yeah, 99% of my stuff is from imagination, no ref. That's one of my most problematic "pet peeves" (aside from the "ahem" controversial sexual tone). If I have to get a ref, I just get bummed out of the initial motivation. It has to be something really quick, and that comes with its cons. I know my "no-ref" figures lack a lot in the "realistic anatomy department" lol>>7894556If you're acknowledging and facing that "problem", then you're ready to "fail" on purpose, or "with a purpose". Yeah, just have at it, do weird figures, retorted, extreme, break the mold. Some people call that "artistic" or "creative", you just go at it, with a playful mind, no one cares, if you trigger someone, you just laugh, because, it is actually fun and funny to play with something so ethereal that can cause so much emotions in others. It's just water flowing down the river, you can't hold it, just let it flow eternally through your fingers. Your riches are infinite, you can draw it again, and again, and again... Forever.This is good advice too >>7894563 I tried once doing simple pixel art, wich is the reduction of art to the minimal expression, and it worked.>>7894560Your stuff is so beautiful. please forgive me for the reply, I feel like I'm a monster made out of disgusting shit, trying to praise something beautiful with I don't deserve to do.
>>7894365do you know i hate ass hole lovers? asshole?
>>7894576cute.. he looks so scared.. you're so fast at creating these works, it's amazing; just so you know i showed this to my partner who helped me make egil and they adore them, especially how you do his cock! thank you so much, i love how terrified he seems.. he's despise being hairless, it's like a shield or protective layer!
How do I stop my drawings from turning out like this. I can feel the amateur and it hurts
>>7894365youre right in both instances, i also have a dotted digital canvas in procreate :Di just really like the lookim glad you blessed me with this beautiful art>>7894519nice :3
>>7894573this hit the nail >3>>7894564this a million times
>>7894577I have a strong desire to pick you up and carry you into a kinder sunset.
>>7894116>rhythms and edges instead of drawing the stick person and then adding the curve lateri will try that next time. please take this lizard as thanks
>>7894583Uuuuhhh... okay(?).. Wait, is this one of those ironic reverse shits? Just in case, I made picrel for you, an ass in the hole, get it? hee-hee. But, If you really hate assholes please forgive me, I apologize. Are you into feet tho?>>7894597he he he Thank you Deer! I'm glad you and your fiends liked it! I appreciate that more than anything!>>7894614Ah, I see... You did a very beautiful piece there! Glad to see you drawing so much lately Monka!
>>7894625im into feet thoand thanskies :DDDi draw more now that i got somehwat better at it, so i have more funglad you feel better again :3
I wish I was talented like Nihu and could learn how to draw.
>>7894632
i hate doing panels.>>7894189why use dotted papers? anyway i like your drawings they areeeee idk i just like it.>>7894165cute stuffs
>>7894625>I made picrel for youyou damaged to my brain. you're such an asshole.>please forgive meno I won't forgive you.>Are you into feet tho?stop straw man me.I hate ass hole lovers. what is so special about that? is it attractive? there is no way people like that human waste shooter. I never understand why people want to have sex with that hole.>because pleasureisn't you get same pleasure from pussy? assholes like a pipe hole no shape not interesting at all. at least pussies have interesting shapes. even it can be use to make creatures named "humans".there is worms and poop in that your favorite pleasurable un-interesting hole. why take a risk? when you can choose a safe path.
>>7894641seems to work for nihu, subu and bweh
>>7894488thanks!>>7894474thank you <3! i'm trying to improve my figure drawing, what kind of studies would you recommend?
>>7894682companion piece to this one, the aftergooning gnosis
>>7894692yep, long ago, found it interesting. i feel i have to make the characters cuter and more human tho
>>7894628>im into feet thoI did picrel for you.>glad you feel better again :3Thank you so much Monka! I'm good, is just that I feel like I would like to escape the board for a while xD, these pics are fun because it's related to the board's meta-interaction. But, I don't feel like doing something for myself. It's a good moment to do something else. I feel like the curse of drawing wants to give me a break lolLMAO! This is what I mean >>7894661 I almost choke laughing to myself with this reply.. this fucking board, man... Now I need to do another pic.. shit>>7894678>>7894686WOW, anon, your stuff is AMAZING. I would feel ashamed to even dare to give you any advice, I don't feel worthy of that. You're like a freaking perfect precious gem, and I don't want to steer your path in any wrong way. I really don't know what artistic advice someone like you should get, you're a beautiful mystery, and you should stay like that.
>>7894420Would you like some help if it meant you could finish the book?
>>7894482Why so mean?
Studying something different for a change
that's how the scapula bends right? trying to get an understanding after watching a course
>>7894678Paul richer bc he’s very straightforward
>>7894556focusing on speed is a trap. you need to draw well first. having a solid workflow down and making fewer and fewer mistakes you have to fix is how you draw faster.
>>7894603analyze it. find what looks part looks amateur. study that and try to fix it.
>>7894748what if i don't know french?
God please grant me talent.
>>7894769God's busy bombing shit somewhere, anon.
>>7894769sorry bud God isn't real.
I opened up my sketchbook, picked up the pen, and stared at the blank page for 10 minutes. a drawing failed to appear. FUCK I hate it when that happens
>>7894155It's ok, it was a quick 30 minute redline so I wasn't too worried about it. I still think her head is a bit wide, but I like the overall lighting and ruffles.
>>7894661Alright anon, I gave some deep thought to what you wrote and I had a terrible vision, a vision of hell, about what could await for me there... an whole eternity eating ass, that ass that I dream about all the time.. while I hear those words that you wrote, screaming at me, mocking me... it scared me.. shitless... get it? hee-hee..Seriously now, I'll try to steer away from it. Thanks anon. What can I draw for you?>>7894771If satan is real, God is real.
>>7894819You're awfully quick at drawing these Peril
>>7893686last figure in this batch>>7894819very nice, impressive how fast you are
>>7893800fucking appalling how they're treating you.This is an amazing redline. I'd be absolutely honored to have someone so skilled analyse my drawing as in-depth as you did here.
>>7894706oh thanks! , you are so kind ^^>>7894748i'll check it out, i was trying dynamic anatomy, but found it very dificult, although beautifuly made.
>>7894850don't samefag, no one gives a shit about some narcissist who follows 0 people on twitter and tracse aislop
>>7894886>>7894879That's not samefag or the Dan dan guy. It's very obviously a different anon the line quality and style is completley different
why i can't reach at least 100 likes in twitter? i am stuck in 35 - 7 likes range
Check it out! What do you think?
>>7894904Draw fanart of popular people's OCs so they repost it and you siphon followers
>>7894787>I wasn't even trying>It was just a quick sketch>People calling my trace boring didn't even bother me lolbweh this is kind of pathetic also aren't you tired of samefagging in three different threads trying to defend your own honor?
>>7894846Do you only draw Nikkers? No other gacha girls?
>>7894985obsessed
did a little fanart of teacher!!def need to learn proportions & anatomy more. fix the hands, also, i just need to make the skull/head a bit thinner/better proportioned with the body
>>7894904If you’re drawing what you like then stop it, you have to draw what’s popular and trendy if you want to grow.
>>7894183That’s adorable anon. I like the way you colored the waves.
>>7894985Retard
>>7894297No wonder this board is dead and everyone has stagnated.Fucking newnigger beglets would have had their asses impaled by molten spikes by pros years ago, and those with merit would have gladly asked for seconds just to have any fucking critique or a golden chance for a redraw. Now everyone just wants to hugbox like redditors and never actually improve, lest their feefees get hurt by someone better than them.
>>7895067nothing to do with hugs. only because of seething gymrats
>>7895069A person posting a redraw isn't "seething"Samefagging about how terrible the redraw is.
>>7895067/beg/ is basically unusable at this point. Hell, nearly all of /ic/ is. The only point of visiting here anymore is to shitpost or find pirated courses/refs.
Even though they aren't always perfect or even good, I feel like I'm comfortable drawing faces and heads Now I'm scared shitless to try and learn how to draw bodies
>>7895067Circlejerk reddit mentality that normie newfags brought with them. Took one redline hardmogging one of them to show what they want and expect from "critiques".
Anyone have a digital copy of this book they could share?
>>7895080Get used to that feeling, because no matter how well you improve in one area you'll always be (relatively) shit in another.
>>7895073What makes you think I mean someone who is not "seething" when I talk about someone "seething"? Instead of thinking that when I mention someone "seething", I mean the person who is "seething".
>this much seethe from getting told their AI shit scribbles are badlol
>It was her turn to be the encampments night watch
>>7895103did she lost her rifle?
>>7895104No. She gets to use her pistol during the watch, so that she can hold the flashlight in her other hand :D
yo what ya think? Colors and values should be ok now.
>>7895107There is something wrong with the way her glutes end and leg begins but I am too retarded to redline it.
>>7895107Technically good, but generic and soulless
>>7895111Give an example of not "generic and sovless" then.
I think I need to start simplifying my art more. My art feels like the organic version of ai. Like if ai was a human and could kind of draw this is the kind of stuff it'd make
>>7895116Nah. It feels very technically skilled. Realist but not just copying shit. It has its own charm.
>>7895107not bad, but other than the fluffy hair, there is nothing interesting going on color wise
>>7895114>>7893988>>7894165>>7894603
>>7895107I would do this
>>7895119Thank you I might just be my own biggest hater and need to look away from my drawing for 2 seconds before coming to the conclusion I need to be publicly hung
>>7895129>I need to be publicly hungHanged. Hung means having a fat cock that hangs.
>>7895127Something I was thinking about. Not sure to what extend and without blue but maybe darker darks
I don't understand this pose. The outline is already pretty blocky, so should I try to just copy it or turn it into a 3D block? I can't make sense of the head either. Is he looking forward or to his left?
>>7895130I'm falling for the bait here but just in case there is someone in this thread who thinks hung is only used to describe cocks I'm replyingHung is the most common between hanged and hung, hanged only applies for hanging people but hung is also applicable. It's like how all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares
>>7894603Torso is too long, head is too boxy/square (female skulls/jaws are rounder and pointier at the extremes), eyes/nose/face too high for anime style (in my opinion), and the arms seem to be disconnected from the back (the lats insert between the triceps and the biceps, more prominently in men but it should also be visible in women).The pose is also very straight and stiff. Maybe adding a bit of rotation (like in contrapposto) or hip tilt (lordosis since female) would add more dynamism or give a stronger impression.Just my personal opinion, though.
>>7894988they are actually czn girlalso, someone sent me this saying they couldn't follow me or get notifications from meI think my twitter acc might be cooked
>>7895107hot qt
>>7895138that just mean they're dumb and follow too many people and tripped the spam filter, it's not on you.that being said twitter is thoroughly botted and filled with AI shitters so it's not like you're losing out on a lot.
>>7895103Looking as retarded as ever
>>7895144He's losing out on commissions if he's trying to build a follower base and generate work.
>>7895144How many people is too many? Are you supposed to follow only one person per day to avoid tripping the filter?Are you going to grow your account if you can't even interact with others?

if i want to grow a social media account for art, what are the best sites that are not purely art related?i like twitter cause its a mix of stuff and not just only artists on there. are there better options with better growth?or what are the better ways to grow a twitter account from a brand new one?>>7895156tnx!! nagabe is my favorite. also, i resized his head realized i drew it too big. but still a bit off, but feel its not bad for my first attempt at fan art
How the fuck do you shade with layers? You put a multiply layer, and then the color looks like shit because it's too muddy, then you put over lay on top so they have some fucking saturation. But there are DARKER colors I want to draw, then what? I do the whole process again? Another two layers? And if I want to change a shadow how do I do it without redoing everything again because I can use an eraser in two layers at the same time. What an absolute load of crap layer blending modes turned out to be
>>7895171>You put a multiply layer, and then the color looks like shit because it's too muddy,Hue shifting, mr retard, hue shifting.
>>7895168>or what are the better ways to grow a twitter account from a brand new one?Draw whatever is new and trendy, my friend got a bunch of followers for drawing the new pokemon girl when the new game was announced.
>>7895171Shift your hues or go with complementary colors. Like shading yellows with a darker violets, reds with dark greens and so on. If you shade with complementaries, don't make the shadows too saturated.
>>7895175Doesn't work moron. Colors look like fucking trash with multiply alone
>>7895180Do it on a normal layer.
>am I not using the multiply layer to its potential?>no, it's the thousands of artists that are wrong.
>>7895188it have its pros and cons. it is mostly skill issue but if he does not like the result, he is not forced.
>>7895188>Perhaps layers are shit and they should remake this useless tool>No, losing all the control of my saturation and hues is actually a good thing
>>7895203>No, losing all the control of my saturation and hues is actually a good thingAnon, stick to trad if you genuinely think this is the case.
>>7895206>Look look I can change the opacity, that makes the machine picking the colors for me worth it!Choke on 1000 cocks fag
>>7895212He won't
>mfw chat gpt taught me more about CSP than hours worth of youtube videos in 20 minutesI hate AI but man.
gooned again instead of drawing
>>7895107Her skin is at that awkward midpoint between tan and fair that looks lifeless. I'd either make her paler or, darker and warmer. Shitty edit to show what I mean.
>>7895222>gooned again instead of drawingchecked and same lmao. the trick is to ween off 3dpd and get an extremely niche fetish so you have to goon to your own art
>>7895222What caused your fall? anime?
>>7895107The bit of elbow sticking out looks akward and breaks the silhouette, I'd just pose that arm slightly differently.
>>7895217Examples?
>>7895230The fact that you can clip an entire folder to a layer below, how you can use alpha lock + clipped layers to avoid making a mess with your shading, ctrl+click on layer thumbnail to make a selection of opaque pixels on that layer, how the reference layer works, things you can do with blending modes etc.
>>7895107Her ribs to pelvis connection looks a bit strange, too much of a wasp waist. I also think her belt should wrap more around her ass more as it feels more flat. Lastly her legs to ass connection is wrong, and the lighting makes no sense as there are should be more cast shadows from the arm onto the ribs and more parts of the left edges in shadow if ithe lighting is coming from top right. The design is cute though.
>>7895234>he needs AI to teach him the absolute basics in editing softwarelol
>>7895240God forbid begs learn something. Go crab somewhere else.
>>7895234I see, thanks
>>7895243we get it dog, you love AI
>>7895067that redline sucks and is just a generic anime style if its even actually drawn by a human. stop defending slop
>>7895259>weImplying you're not just one lonely mental case.
Came across this extremely talented artist on deviantart that just draws men taking shits. It’s the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while. This person really learned art just to make stuff like this
>>7895268LMAO You guys have to see this for yourselves holy shithttps://www.deviantart.com/kim0461
>find a da account with ai images>you guys gotta see thisjust kill me.
>>7895268>>7895269now that's what I call shitposting!
>>7895271How do you know that they’re ai?
>>7895274by looking at it, alternatively by the dsiclaimer that the image was created with ai
>>7895275Oh, whoops. Still funny lmao
>>7895079Where else would we even go? twitter? I don't want attention i just want to get better
>>7895228anime
>How do you know that they're ai?Welcome to ep. 943 of "Trolling or retardation", cast your votes now!
>>7895279They didn’t look like AI at first, not all of us are AI detection experts
>>7895280Look at the holes on the paper.
>>7895281They looked real to me.It’s really not that serious. If anything it’s a good indication that AI is improving
>>7895269>literally hundereds of ai slop garbage posted today alone >all of the descriptions seem ai generated as well>probably automatically uploading everything, might even have this slop machine on a never-ending scriptEvery day on this planet seems to be a little bit worse than the last.
>>7894846very good (excluding bottom right), can be used as goon material probablywhere can I see more of your work?
>>7895278For real? What did you watch?
>>7895262>if its even actually drawn by a human.It is, that artist has been around for years. It's been five years, how the fuck are people still incapable of telling ai from human?

what are some good free assets I can get from the CSP store?
>>7895136>Torso is too longYeah I got lazy and don't actually know/didn't measure properly what head:body ratio this is>head is too boxy/squareFuck me and my 1000 boxes I drew when I first started out, its coming back to bite me in the ass in unexpected ways.>eyes/nose/face too high for anime styleI tried to add perspective to the face to make it look like she is looking slightly down at the viewer, if you are thinking this I probably failed at the perspective>and the arms seem to be disconnected from the back I can see it now, I forgot to color in those 2 blue spots under her arms which is causing it>The pose is also very straight and stiffI wanted a full frontal pose, something kind of imposing, maybe it just doesn't match with the theme? idk.Thanks for the critique, I'll try to keep this all in mind next time.
>>7895298I don't think it's the Twitter guy who did that redline. His style is pretty different, and he always inserts a vibrator for thigh up shots.>>7893800This is a fantastic redline , hope you bless our thread again anon , thank you for your time
>>7893800Why this redline shit have more (You)s than my arttttt I HATE U ALL I HATEEEEEE U ALLLLLLLLL
>>7895366if you use AI and pretend to give out redlines, you too can get all this attention in a chinese basketweaving forum!
>>7895366Which one is your art? I'll tell you why you didn't get any responses. To be honest this is the last place you should be trying to grab attention, even on 4chan there's better boards for that. People come here to get better and practice, not to blog post
>>7895368It's not AI, retard. Please post your work so we can laugh at how bad and stupid you are at art.
>>7895369ur right. i refreshing this thread every 10 min to see is there any (you)s. i posts every single drawing i made here and gets no responds make me mad. maybe i should keep 90% of my drawings to myself. i feel like i am now drawing for (You)s and Twitter likes. i think i should focus on improving than grab attention. i pray my brain will listen to me.
>>7895379I think maybe you should keep 100% of your drawings to yourself.
Havent drawn in 3 months and I need to KMS NOW
>>7895346Thank you Monka!so your main drive is drawing for other people?It depends, this site is great to pick on amazing stuff like this >>7894661 and then have a great time doing something fun with it, I can't do that anywhere else. I did that Figuary thing on /fig/ and I think that I did "some" pretty beautiful pieces there (I believe), wich I don't care to do usually, and I didn't get any remarkable feedback, maybe that reminded me of how pointless and futile can be to try to be a "real artist" nowadays. No one really cares, now more than ever before. I came to realize that what I draw matters only if it is fun for ME. Otherwise, if you put your heart on the care of an "audience" your "artistic heart" will end up on the trash bin.>>7894651Incredible effort!>>7894846>very nice, impressive how fast you areThank you! thank you! I cut corners all over the place to be fast, you put the time in your work and it shows!>>7894827Thank you so much fren! I certainly draw stuff faster when I'm having fun xD>>7895107Still hot as fuck. The amazing figure makes the piece, whatever color you chose. That ass is perfection>>7895141Comfy!>>7895156>more peril kino.. fuck yeah on the captionThankyou Deer!!! Another beautiful drawing eh congrats!.. Yeah the caption is this reply >>7894661 word for word, fucking hysterical XD!!!>>7895103Watch your step Cyclops! Isn't cold at night?
I cant draw. I cant learn how to draw. I am too fucking retarded to make it past permaprebeg.IT IS OVER.
>>7895356You're welcome. I actually like the concept of your drawing, the character is like a god or angel descending upon us.>I tried to add perspective to the face to make it look like she is looking slightly down at the viewer, if you are thinking this I probably failed at the perspectiveYeah, in that case the top of the head should be less visible, and the underside of both the nose and the chin should be visible, since the head is tilted back to look down. You should probably add some curvature to the face features (I made the same mistake a while ago).On the other hand, if you want her to look like she's coming down from above (rather than just looking down), you'll have to redraw the perspective of the whole body as well.>I wanted a full frontal pose, something kind of imposing, maybe it just doesn't match with the theme? idk.On the contrary, it fits perfectly. You're drawing is reminiscent of Christ the Redeemer statue in Brazil.https://files.catbox.moe/yzq07s.jpghttps://files.catbox.moe/lrpw2q.jpeghttps://files.catbox.moe/bhq7ck.jpeg
>>7895284@rein1155what didn't you like about the last figure
need suggestions on what to draw when I wake up cus my stupid brain is stupid cannot think of anything fun to draw at the moment
>>7895422Tits too small.
ALL MY SHIT LOOKS FLAT AND RETARDED. HELP.
>>7895357Very herculean.
Some shit from memory
i put arrows.>>7895387is that wukong
I've done better.Her shoulder area looks way off and her neck isn't quite right.I feel I didn't do a very good job of displaying the angle
not even the mass repliers notice my drawings anymore
>>7895480no need to thanks for my ignorance
>>7895480that's a good thing, mass replies are worthless
>>7895490Why?>>7895480
>>7895422Torso looks broken or too long. It just feels wrong
is there any point to drawing>>7895325cheesegr8twt>>7895326awesome>>7895357create a twitter lets be art mutuals
Idk what I'm doing
>>7895541why do you draw?
>>7895547next time ill attach an image
>>7895547I don't. They appears from thin Air when I pray to God.
>>7895544Help me out
>>7893800he's beginning to believe
I was busy prompting some stuff and it came out mid beg
>>7895559why are you stealing from others then posting here?
>>7895547because its there
>>7895562I LOVE STEALING, AI IS THE FUTURE WHETHER YOU ARE YOU GOING FORWARD OR NOT
>>7895564Alright anon but how can we train it to gaslight people in becoming racist
>>7894925I think it looks cool anyon! love the colors
So how'd i do?
>>7895615Cute, i like it. Nice painting style
>>7895387> No one really cares, now more than ever beforeReal, its unfortunatei did it too back when i started out , drawing for other people, it didnt end well bc i was drawing in styles that didnt fit me> I think that I did "some" pretty beautiful pieces there i enjoyed them tho>It depends, this site is great to pick on amazing stuff like this true this is the only site that you can get inspiration fromgetting yelled at and i think thats beautifulalso thank you fro the wukong art, :Dhe looks lovely >3>>7895541sex
>>7895427Might be a diet-related problem. Do you eat enough veggies?
>>7895427what? your shit is flat? like a disk or somthing? what did you even ate to a such thing?
>>7893800boring, soulless, waste of time
This turnaround stuff is hard.But I've never done it before and it forced me to think and rotate the body in my head, I think it's being a good exercise.Now I'll just see if I can make a 3/4ths for her, and give her some armor, poor girl is nakey.
How do you guys call this? When artists give warm and cold colors willy nilly in the clothes but somehow it looks good
>>7895666That's not willy nilly.The warmer shadows are receiving more light, while only the deeper shadows are colder. I don't think there's any specific name to it, but it's something that was fairly common in impressionism.
>>7895668Who's Willy Nilly? A country singer?
>>7895670That's Willy Nelson.
I apply my shadows Milli Vanilli.
>>7895629I think you should work on your anatomy more s lot of your forms always feel flat because you don't construct
>>7895695oh allright :3thanksies
i have achieved negative readability
>>7895701This is an awkward composition, it would looks better if the moon was farther away from the trees or overlapped. There's also no sense of depth because the trees on should be way smaller than the cliff with the buildings on it. If they're supposed to be in the foreground, they need to overlap the other trees and be darker
>>7895706hmmm, lemme fix the drawing >3and i will get back to youthank you for the feedback
>>7895706so more like this?i scaled the trees down/ and made the front ones darkerand placed the moon higher
>>7895387>Isn't cold at night?it's a bit cold. Maybe she should wear warmer clothes sometimes :D
>>7895759not dis shidderu again
>>7895759It's a good drawing, but weak progress for 14 years. Seems more like consistency rather than hard work.
>>7895759I would kill myself if I only progressed this much in 14 years.
>>7892984Today’s perspective warmup
>>7895703nice ass
Goddamn city scapes require so much detail to start to look even half decent. Will remember next time I consider doing one.
I bring extra Jank from yesterday.Kind of frustrated this weekend.But I'm happy I did something.
>>7895802I think that looks really good.
Tried another study, but this time I didn't allow myself to import the reference to the canvas until I was satisfied. I believe I started on the 6th and slowly worked at it over the weekend. Anyways, I'm satisfied with what I accomplished.
>>7895797probably one of your best males so far>>7895761cute harry>>7895744you've gotten good at drawing dicks
>>7895744Thanks, your *text gave me a laff
Ok, Im too retarded to learn from separated sourcers , so , what can i do? Do you guys recommend any guides, courses or whatever, that have a clear to do list to where i should go, and exercises, things like that?
is this super wonky? i'd work on it more but i fear polishing a turd + haven't really dug into color and light yet
>>7895889samefag specifically i'd like to know if feels flat
>>7895879Study from life, study perspective books (perspective made easy, the perspective drawing handbook), study Paul richer for anatomy and Loomis for draftsmanship, use YouTube for anything, draw every day, draw everything, and never stop
>>7895544
>>7895967This is very unclear. For something like this, try drawing a Birds Eye view first, then plot where the viewer is standing, and THEN establish your horizon line, vanishing points, and draw from there. Something complex like this requires more planning which you seemingly have not done
There's an aqw art contest, I need some advice. My skills are still rusty.
>>7895973I don't like planning What's wrong specifically?
>>7896018>I don’t like planningThis is going to be a huge problem for you as an artist. Planning is literally the most important part of a drawing, it’s how everything falls into placeAs for what’s wrong with it, it’s hard to tell what I’m looking at. I see a robot, but where is he? Is it a city? Is it futuristic? Everything is drawn very ambiguously, almost as if you expect the viewer to understand it because you do. Please consider getting used to planning your drawings, because it’s really going to hurt you as an artist if you don’t.

Something i tried today :>
how do i draw muscle striations
>>7896103Because he is she
>>7896100Idk exactly what you mean but this may help
Do artists who dοn't draw faces well end up just learning one face really well (like all the angles) and just copy that?And that's how you end up with sameface artists?
>>7896100First you try to understand where the muscles attach to, then you can more easily remember the direction of the fibers, and then you try to give them volume while following the direction of the muscle fibers, making them more apparent near and towards the insertion points of the muscles. Follow their curvature, because flat lines will flatten their volume, think of it as adding a shape on top of another shape. Also remember that striations are more apparent in flexed muscles rather than relaxed ones, and some muscles like the biceps rarely show proper striations.
Is it unsalvageable?
>>7896113no
>>7896124Not at all, looks 1000x better than before
yo people, drawing just for social media praise is bad?
>>7896148That's all art is about nowadays
>>7896161is it bad?
>>7896148If they don't enjoy chasing trends and drawing things to appeal to others instead of themselves, yes that's bad.
>>7896164Drawing for others is bad, yes. You should only be drawing for yourself.
ok fuck twitter
Do I continue fixing and adjusting, trace a clean lineart or shelve this lady and start a new sketch?
if 4chan get fucked someday where do we go to? 8chun or something?

Nobody told me I'd get tired οf my own art style.
>>7896241Just change it then
>>7896241what does your art style look like?
today is the day i realized, this "art" thing of mine is bound to stay as a hobby or side thing as i shave my life away as a goywageslavei give up of hoping making any money of this

>>7896113YWNBAW
>>7896103>>7896113leave him alone you disgusting faggot
>>7896219Here I really exaggerated the striation effect on the triceps, following both the photo and a more anatomical guide for the direction of the muscle fibers. The red drawing was simply getting a feel for the form underneath, and the green one was testing the direction of the fibers.
fuck it we ball
Today’s studies. Trying to just gesture the planes of the face and get a feel for how everything connects, so went a little goofy with these
>>7896368You might surpass Pawell in unappeal at this point...
>>7896182I put the tape in the stupidest spot, and the next lady definitely will have better hips and legs.
>>7896219And another example of how I'd do it with the muscles of the chest. The chest is a good area to train this sort of thing, because it has fibers that attach to the same point towards the biceps, but since it is a large muscle, the fibers separate into distinct groups according to the direction of their contraction.
