>>7963959Using somebody's redraw of another person's character and scene instead of the original's is ultra neg lmfaoo you cunt
>>7963960WAGMI
how do you learn to draw depth so things don't always look flat
>>7963959>two redlines by the same person in the OP
>>7963965Can I interest you in... The cube?
sneed frens... sneed....COMMUNITY... i'll drop my fking twitter here even idgaf
>>7963965Nice work anon. Best thing I can recommend is to try to draw a cube or grid similar to Kim Jung Gi or Krenz would do and put the figure inside that "room" first before trying to draw the major shapes. That way you can get a sense of the angle and diminishment naturally
There will be no drama in this thread
if you were too shit to make it into the OP then maybe art just isn't for you
>>7963977If it were based on skill peril wouldn’t be in it.
>>7963977>Looks at op image>It's just all goon shit
>>7963976>>7963977Right on.Remember guys: >Avoid simply saying :>"this is too long"> "this looks bad">dismissing questions by simply pointing resources "needs more loomis etc, learn perspective etc"Instead try to honestly explain the issue you are seeing in detail. You can honestly both praise the good points and point out what could use more improvement without being a jerk about it. If somebody effort into presenting their work to you, then you should put effort into trying to help them succeed, as most people are here to genuinely learn.Redlines and paint-overs are the absolute best thing you can do to help, but it's okay if you can't provide one. Alternatively, giving a clear, concise and detailed review of the work can still be helpful as well!I look forward to seeing all of your work.
>>7963989>remember the shit I added to the OP just nowgo fuck yourself lmao
>>7963989This post is too long.
>>7963971What's your Twitter? Cute frog waifu. Only thing I'd say is to maybe consider making her neck a little shorter?
>>7963959fun collage, good job op
>>7963965I think you did it quite well with the body, cool job. Cant really answer what to do exactly when drawing, I go directly to ink shading for 3d effect
>>7963969>>7963975cubes are scary bc they keep flipping in and out whenever I look at them>>7963999that's smart, I feel like shadows do a great job of establishing depth

I tried doing perspective here but the silhouette still looks flat/head on. I also don't know which silhouette shape is more interesting
>>7964008Never heard of constructive criticism before?
>>7964006>>7963991why are you all so insufferable>>7964010also genuinely looks like shit lmao
>>7963958you're not on the collage lil bro>>7963956why
>>7964010Personally I like the 1st one. I think the main problem you appear to be having is the body and arms appears too short as the neck, head and skirt aren't drawn with a sense of an under angle that I think you may be going for. Are you using any references for this work?
>>7964013that doesnt matter to me
Why do you all make such a big deal about having your drawings in a collage? It's vapid recognition, even more so when you don't know the skill level of the person making them. There have been threads where very skilled people get skipped over. Swear beg/int really is like a kids classroom. Next time out a gold star on the collage

>>7964011You will never have another technical artist like Muju or Lolcron. You will never have another witty artist like egoraptor or Cap-tan.At best you will have 2-3 faggots with abhorrent dogshit taste posting in here and still being /int/ despite wasting years if not decades drawing. You will have shitty brazilians stealing those artstyle in the same way nerfnow stole cap-tan art (nothing changed with the brs i guess, still shitty people) All because the only thing you want is to circlejerk and to not hurt someone feefees. That constructive enough or no? If you ain't getting paid then there's absolutely no reason to be reddit towards others.

Reposting for the new thread! Any crit before I start lineart appreciated!
I just wanted to say that I genuinely love this board so much and it really helps keep up my motivation to draw. Just having other people to talk about art with is nice. Whenever I stop posting here my motivation craters and I end up not drawing much at all. So I really do appreciate you guys a lot.
>>7964075I am sleepy.
>>7964029>>7964034Normally a guy would have much thinner legs and hips than his torso, yet his hips are about as wide if not wider than his very broad shoulders. His head is much smaller than usual too. If you want to sell the low angle, widen the body as it comes lower to the knees.1) You can draw some straight lines on his body treating it like a box to roughly figure out where the the horizon line is. Use that horizon line to build a grid and your mannequin from there. Then you can replicate that same perspective grid off to the side as you try and draw a female version of the pose off within that to get a better sense of below. This is just a rough guess that I'd have to spend much longer to be sure on, but I personally think it would be 3 point with the left VP far away off screen, one VP right in between his legs and then a vertical convergence upwards. 2) Understanding the body converging in a box and general tilt/alignment, I can see that your arms are also too short comparatively to his as you shortened the ribcage too much. I would also try to draw a mannequin over the original image ignoring the cloth to figure where things sit so you can see how long that torso and hips and legs really get.For a woman, the hips, and legs would be even wider than for him as the perspective distortion would magnify those curves. Your main problem is that you didn't draw with a grid in mind and exaggerate the lower body's width change and overlap onto the upper body enough.I don't have time for a full redline but hopefully my explanation and visuals can help you.
>>7964040you missed his point, thdark101 is good /ic/ artist who's getting paid full timeif that dude can do it then so can you
>>7963959i guess what i do is a clicking motion with my mouse, i dont hold the lmb down when drawing a line. on trad i guess i lift my pencil for a fraction of a second. again, this is nothing i consciously came up with, i just happened to develop the habit in that manner for whatever reason i believe its a bit like the "searching line" technique, where you draw 5 perpendicular lines to find a good one. but instead i stop inbetween the line to "feel out" where to go next.
>>7964098meant for >>7963698
>>7963995https://x.com/Grimdeer64Thank you thank you, I actually tend to make necks to short so I'm glad to hear this
perspective and depth are hardmaybe tomorrow I'll set aside time to study the xiang anatomy book or whatever it's called>>7964075this but unironically
>>7964098VGGHHHH Total mousegod victory... Last time I told people I drew with a mouse the thread went silent for 5 hours LOLL
>>7964078Thank you for giving me the best crit ive gotten in a while instead of calling me a troon or a permabeg. Where do you live? I wanna give you a blowjob
recent commissionhow can i go about improving on this style further(and getting more diverse with it)
>>7964078Now that I recall it, my biggest issues came from understanding where the legs would sit in perspective here. His clothes are so baggy that I just have to start guessing or make them an implication in the final. This will probably be my first time doing proper construction for an artwork, so I'll try my best to do what you suggested
>>7964125draw him raping a partially disemboweled white twink
>>7964125God this looks so good. What stands out to me are the bright magenta tones in the subject's skin. If the Turkish looking guy on the mic is your main subject, try incorporating similarly unconventional tones in his hair as well to make him pop out against the subjects that are behind him
>>7963938>>7963903looks french (= demonic)i guess i will continue researching (thinking). thanks for the ideas so far. i watched 1000s mangas and anime, and while i remember there being really realistic ones, i dont know which ones... and even then, i am not sure if "realistic" "anime" AND "super low effort" is a functional existing combination of styles.I will create more in the future. I'll post some attemptsany more ideas what to do?

Perfect!>>7963959That OP image is FREAKING EXCELLENT!!!! Thanks anon!
Need a fresh perspective to help me see what's wrong with this.
>>7964165too airbrushy, need some more defined edges on the shading
>>7964165too much pillow shading, specially in the legs. line on the jaw connecting ear to chin missing, makes the face-neck looks wrong just because of that line missing.
>>7964165thumbnail looks awesome tho. it's a matter of rendering style.
>>7964165damn, kurapika looks like THAT now???
>>7964164I dont know why but your style really shines here. Usually it isnt really to my tastes, but here its like a solid mix between your style and appeal (to my tastes obviously) gj dude
>>7964165musculature looks fine enough, really its your rendering having a lack of hard edges to really define the transitions between those angular planes of the muscles and the softness of the female form. I can give it my best go at a paint over after I finish my figure studies if that's what you're talking about
>>7964153>>7964157
Can someone recommend art programs lighter than Krita? It stutters every time I pick a brush and it's extremely hard to do strokes because it's way too laggy. Granted I have a very slow computer but I'll use anything as long as it's free and has layers.
>>7964180What computer do you have? I have an old piece of shit i3 and 8GB ram, no graphic card, and Krita just flies on it. I don't think you can find a better art software for free.

>>7964197holy shit that looks so fucking goodyou've improved a ridiculous amount so quickly, great job. how much time do you spend practicing each day?>>7964186>shirtlessbodyless
>>7964180try changing this settinghttps://docs.krita.org/en/reference_manual/preferences/display_settings.htmlmight fix some of the lag.otherwise painttool sai 2 works great on old hardware. it's not free but you can pirate it easily.
>>7964165That rendering completely ruins the image. A shame too because the sketch you showed earlier was so good.
>>7964202Thank you, lately I've been putting in at least 6 hours a day but sometimes up to 10
>>7964195Yeap, that's a pretty lacking machine right there, anon. You will have performance issues with any or most programs out there to be quite honest. Ironically painting software doesn't require a very powerful machine at all. A low to mid tier level machine can run any art program no problem, even with out a graphic card. Maybe you should focus on getting a good enough pc, an i3 with 8GB of ram should be the starting base of your setup. You will run Win 10 perfectly fine, but I don't know if that's good enough for Win11 though.
some more mechanical stuff from tonight
>>7964210patpatwhat's your process anon? do you do any kind of construction or jump straight in? I like your art
>>7964207damn, great effort. it's really paying off
>>7963959>Hey my drawings is in the O->It's the redraw At least my Cyclops made it in too
>>7964164I'm surprised you didn't push the proportions even more. Fun drawing. Cool shapes.
felt myself taking a lot less time to sketch this out than i normally do. threw in a quick attempt to shade as well. the original pic has a lot of that 'skin shine' splotches but im unsure how to recreate that without usuing colors
>>7964207How did you build up to that much drawing? Got a blog?
>>7964063>>7964197>be me>spent 1 whole year drawing every day for 5 hours a day and couldn't even copy right. >All of them are wonky cartoon bodies>nobody praised me for my hardwork>Tried my best to study and ask around>anons instead mocking me and said I'm ngmi> Now come in some random talentlet>Could produce near perfect copy in one month>Got praised and all that shitYOU GUYS SAID TALENT DOESN'T MATTER. BUT LOOK WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE? WHY ARE YOU GUYS LIKE THIS? WHY?
>>7964180>>7964195when i ran krita on my e4600 i didn't experience much lag. maybe try to lower or turn off the stabilizer or switch to weighted/dynamic brush?sai is the lightest, but it seems that you won't be able to afford the license...you can also try free versions of firealpaca or medibang, i prefer former
>>7964255In-between uni semesters with no job so I have tons of free time, and I already had a habit of drawing at least a little every day. I use a pomodoro app and make sure I use the breaks to move around and stuff. ADHD meds help a lot too. No blog yet, though I should really start one. No idea what to use as my screen name though lol
>>7964207>>7964265What books did you use? Please share, kind anon.
>>7964148
>>7964166>>7964169>>7964173Alright, I'm seeing a pattern emerging. Definitely need harder edges. I'll have another go at it tomorrow and see if I can blend less and maybe use a different brush. Thanks bros.
Should I start posting my /beg/ tier raceplay art on twitter?
>>7964269How did you learn to draw the body? Please share some wisdom.
>>7964271no you should keep that stuff to yourself
>>7964272I draw muscular women a lot. If you want to get into anatomy I'd say just pick a limb or body part, look up reference pictures on pinterest and just copy them. After you're decently used to how each muscle group looks, pick a different limb and do the same thing again. And don't be afraid to look up references while drawing stuff from angles you're not used to.
>>7964261the pedophiles are fighting!
>>7964215nah i barely do any construction (in the sense of a presketch). what you see is what you get basically. i do involve myself with a shitton of mecha stuff though (building modelkits etc), so thats where i get my ideas.
>>7964274That's great. Thank you anon!

>>7964267Right now I'm working out of Xiao Weichun's Human Anatomy for Artists https://e-hentai.org/g/3412406/96f1edcc4d/If you mean all of the books/resources I've used, I started out with the Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain workbook to teach me the basics of observation and then did Dorian Iten accuracy exercises (with tracing paper taped to my screen since I was working in trad) every day for months, the first half or so of Hampton's Figure Drawing Design and Invention, a big chunk of Yoh Yoshinari's Tezuka Rough Sketches, a bit of Morpho Simplified Forms, random tutorials on pinterest, and brokendraw's 25 exercises PDF (I use whatever exercise I feel I need to work on for my warm-up in the morning). This is along with copying a ton of anime/manga/art I like and drawing from life. I also did Draw a Box years ago but quit drawing shortly after finishing the box challenge.
>>7964293what drugs are you on (I mean this in a good way)
>>7964071Lines and base colors :>>>7964289Cute!
>>7964261Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a very kind anon giving you feedback through red lines?Also if your goal with art is praise/ass-patting, then you're doing it wrong.

>>7964283Hmm the legs are definitely a big improvement on your version. I'll reference this tomorrow. Big thanks, anon.
>>7964289Mind sharing your rendering process?
>>7964306good shit desu, don't burn yourself out though
>>7964314Original reference
>>7964311It's no process, I haven't gotten to professional rendering, yet. I'm trying to copy Tsunako's style pic related, for now. Through the process of eyeballing.
Just draw.
>>7964310it's not meant to be a redline or anything, I just wanted to give it a go because it seemed fun, but I'm glad it could helpI'll probably do some skin studies tomorrow, my value and saturation control is still very off
>>7964283Wow, that looks so much better. Great job
>>7964301still permabeg
>>7964034Does that mean I have to be to post for years and establish my namefag eceleb identity before getting featured on the OP photo?
>>7964320nice boxes
>>7964261that other anon isn't talented, you're just retarded
>>7964336At the very least they're good at copying from Weichun's Human Anatomy book. It's a pretty good book that made me progress in my own skills. They also seem to have a knack for spatial understanding, but I forget if those are the skulls that they have on one specific page when talking about how to draw skulls, or if the anon drew them all via the method taught.
>>7964342I think those skulls are copied from the page introducing skulls, it looks very familiar. Important with books like this is that you're actually internalizing the concepts they're teaching otherwise you're just relying on rote memorization when you should be learning the mechanics of how skull structures all have the same landmark features which that book does talk about. It's a bit more of an advanced book, but it's good for learning how to do advanced stylization/creature/character design and stuff
>>7964342Is the book kind of like Bridgman or Loomis?
>>7964342Most of them are copies from the book but the pile of skulls at the bottom here >>7964063 are from the methods taught
>>7964344I consider it to be like a progression of Morpho's simplified forms. It does lean in some principles similar to bridgeman and loomis, but vaguely. The way weichun goes about teaching with his mannequins and concepts is very structural. So you need to have a solid understanding of construction and perspective before really gleaming anything of benefit from it.
>>7964327I know. Feelsbad
>>7964345In that case, very well done! Better than my own attempts with the method when I did it a couple years ago. I find it funny though that both me and you unprompted by the book did a very similar exercise in concept execution. Well done anon, if you continue to approach the book as you are now you'll have a very solid base by the end of the year. Only real advice to you now is to just be weary of burnout, cause Weichun's book can get pretty rigorous depending on how far you take the concepts they're teaching. The way he teaches is very much not hand holdy, just explains a concept, shows a few examples, and then you have to do the rest yourself
>>7964349Thanks anon. I think I've got a good feedback loop between drawing what I like, studying what I need to improve, and applying it to keep me motivated, but I'll also be taking it a bit easier for about 10 days starting tomorrow so hopefully I won't get burnt out too soon. I actually really like how rigorous it is, it's challenging, but I'm at the point where I need something hard and I'm enjoying it
>>7964359>I'm at the point where I need something hardamen brother
>>7964271It would be very funny.
>>7964359Good on you. The way he approaches the body is like if you apply an industrial design mindset to the human body, so if you stick with it, you'll come out the other side understanding the mechanics of how the human body's forms interact with eachother. If Morpho's is teaching you how to build the body with simple form and gesture, Weichun's is teaching you the how those forms work together to create movement and weight and how to add complexity to them. I really like his book because he shows how the design of the human body is actually extremely common in nature. So if you learn the mechanics of a human body work, you can apply it to create anything you'd like. Can even translate it to mecha and the like. You'll get as much out of it as you put in, so best of luck
>>7964283UOU muscle girl
>>7964174Who would have thought the answer was Thelema all along. Thank you.
>>7964018i love this lil fella

>>7964389Yea coloured pencil !
>>7964261Just DM Casy that you will pay her to be her student in order to learn Hat Kid. I remember talking to Cassandra once, she was surprisingly nice. Hell, I could get you in contact with a guy who only draws Hatkid in Drawpile and you can just watch and copy him there.
>>7964172Thank you so much anon! Please forgive me for my grotesque artistic sins. I'm quite aware of what I throw out on the canvas, when is pretty, or when is ugly, or when is edgy, I know how it looks like, but it's part of the fun to see what random thing comes out combining all of that in terms of weird anatomy or random designs.>>7964243OH WOW! I can't believe you took the time and effort to do such an in depth study! much appreciated!!! Thanks anon, it allows me to take a second look at it, for the first time lol. Most of the time post stuff with any second thoughts.>>7964200You're right, I just scribble stuff in one go hinting at the thing most of the time. That hand is like a rough sketch, that 's the "quantum stage" of the hand lol. I don't know yet if the thumb should be coming on top or touching her chin, but I like how it looks in general and the gesture, it should need a final redraw to put the fingers in the right place.>>7964192THANKS!!!! =D>>7964197PRETTY COOOOL!!!!!>>7964210EXTREMELY COOL STUFF>>7964246WWWWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! saved...>>7964268=D>>7964320Nice cubes!!!!>>7964383You have created a beautiful piece of real art! Congratulations!
>>7964378nice , would like to see extended l'egg universe
>>7964227Stole the palette from some vtuber imamura drew on twitter
>>7964408Oh, taste is first and foremost subjective, and what I find most admirable about your work is that it's unabashedly you, like a crystallization of your being, spilling out onto the canvas. It's polarizing and won't always get the most welcome reception, but it's yours, and that's something that I think only becomes more and more invaluable as art homogenizes towards consumerist slop. So it's not always my cup of tea, but I can appreciate the blend.

crit?
>>7964545it's not a very appealing angle and his expression looks kinda retarded, but it's still well doneI especially like the hands>>7964522nice!
>>7964550>it's not a very appealing angleisnt that kinda the action spiderman pose? I dont think its unappealing i think i drew it wrong
>>7964545I think his upper lip looks odd and his nose looks very long
>>7964551comics do tend to foreshorten the torso, but they make up for it by bringing some of the limbs (especially the hands) to the foreground, or have the head face the viewerI think the composition also suffers without a clear line of actionbut you might be going for something different so idk
>>7964441Done I think, let me know what you would change
>>7964545>>7964551>i think i drew it wrongNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!WAIT! That figure is fucking great! I'm not a fan of his face, but that doesn't mean it isn't correct. The abs detail is fucking perfection. You can keep tuning his face for appealing, but don't over do it, whatever fix it needs it should be a very subtle one I think.Anyways I did a quick fig of the pose. I like it.

I can only draw one thing that doesn't look like complete shit. Ngmi
>>7964568
>>7964617What is that?
>>7964621
I’m sorry you guys don’t like me. I guess I’ll stop sharing here.
>>7964626Who are you?
>>7964626???
>>7964628Probably one of the begs who spam their art
cant believe i spent 20 mins on this im getting worse at drawing somehow but i blame it on being traditional
>>796463120 min is barely a warmupkeep going
>>7964628I don’t want to tell you, nothing good will come of it.>>7964629Nobody is nice anymore, just bullying.

This is how I used to draw in kindergarten. Critique?
>>7964643Resize your shit before posting
>>7964644
>>7964268thanks. yours doesnt look ugly enough for me though. she's uglier in the original image then here. right?While this is stylized, any ideas how to make such images more ugly (so it stays realistic, instead of making them all look similar)?
Damn algorithm. Giving me notifications of old posts just because I reposted them in a comments section .

had to export as a jpg to be able to post it. I know I still have a lot of work to do to improve my art style
>>7964703but I think I REALLY need to work on this first
Sacrificed 90 minutes of my life to moloch to draw this (I know the hair shading is weird and the face is too long)
>>7964707Are her hands tied behind her back?
>>7964704My current drawing will probably take 40 to 50 hours by the end of it and it's just a single figure and basically no background. 3 days for 4 distinct characters isn't as bad as you think tbqh.
>>7964710You ever sat on a surface with your shoulders back and hands behind your back
>>7964712jeez, good luck anon.>>7964707she's pretty good, but I think the shoulders are a little bit flat, as if you were looking at her from the front. From that angle, the upper part of the shoulders would be more visible unless she's tilted back
>>7964461Yay!!!>>7964414Eggstended universe! Ive been trying to draw this guy atleast once a day im glad you like him>>7964531UR WELCOME
Alien girls
>>7964712You should never spend that much time on a single drawing as a /beg/. You are being held back by lack of knowledge. If you try to draw the same thing a few times and it’s not working then you need to stop and do some studies and figure out where the gaps are.I’m speaking from experience, I honest to god spent multiple months working on individual drawings and I learned absolutely nothing from it.
>>7964712>50 hours for a single figurewhat the fuck is wrong with you
>>7964631Nice prompt.

>>7964750Looks color-picked
>>7964751but what would be the point of color picking a color study
>bro dont lineart just clean up ur sketch and colorgotta be the worst meme of all time, it always looks so bad
>>7964753You tell me
More ladies
asssuming that i intended to monetarize my art, and assuming i got a little better at it, but essentially did the same thing, what would be a way to go about it? i feel like theres little market for stuff like commissions with what i do. is it really just the extremely competitive concept art pipeline thats an option?
>>7964762you can try freelancing for indie developers
Cylinders don’t feel too badBoxes are actually so fucking hardMaybe I shouldn’t have clowned on DaB so much
>>7964757can you give examples of what this looks like?
>>7964757>dont lineart just clean up ur sketchthat is what I always do
Tried again I guess, really half-assed though. Not in a drawing mood today.I'll try starting something new. Any ideas on what I should draw?

>>7964785I posted it last thread>>7960342>>7961960
>>7964802how long does it take you for a single figure?
tried doing a few studies today before I burn my brain out by med stuff
>>7964805I don't keep track of time, I just draw whenever I feel like it
>>7964806then tried applying it to some quick little applicationsI think this is the first time I've done gesture drawings
>>7964807your software does though in krita it keeps track in document properties, i dont use csp but appareantly it tracks too
ok and last one sorry for the spam top is a somewhat referenced doodle I got the idea for from some thread on /y/ looking for refsand the bottom is a study of some mamoru nagano art, but my brain was flagging by the time I got to it still I would say it's been the most productive drawing day I've had in a while/blog
>>7964802Your figures are great
>>7964781A girl. But with a giant penis.
I give up.
>>7964822See you tomorrow
>gotta be the worst meme of all time, it always looks so badtrue
>>7964823/ic/ might be one of the few boards where that meme isn’t applicable. People get burned out and quit all the time because this shit is so punishing
the last little specks of drawing before I take a bath >>7964819weird how it's always girl and never woman with these creeps
>>7964834Holy pedantic Mr. reddit.
>>7964781not a fan of how you did the hip areathe glutes have two part to them, the one you see from the front is the upper part of the glutes, the way you overlapped muscles in yours is all wrong >>7964827shut your bitch ahh up you dont even sketch YWNBAS (you will never be a scribbler)shes not succin enough for the cheeks to be this visible btw, she kinda looks like a skull unless you were going for that
>>7964835not really
>>7964620Thanks I'll try changing it up
>>7964836Noted. I'll try to remember this the next time I draw this angle again. Thanks.
>>7964834Always funny to see you desperately and performatively try and distance yourself from loli/shota stuff when you're a genuine freak pedophile.
>>7964837So sorry xir and or madam. I will reiterate. He should draw a grown female women, of the human species, and the character of said drawing should be above the legal tender age of 18 (in American years), with a penis attached.
>>7964836why mean, faggotbro>shes not succin enough for the cheeks to be this visible btwshe is, I'm feelin it
>>7964827God I wish this was me.
so im drawing anime women but necks get me mixed upsometimes i attach them as if the neck arttachs to the back of the head, any tips to help with that?
I apologize for the faggot comment it was a knee-jerk reaction
>>7964853You don’t have to apologize for saying faggot here
>>7964854its pridemonth
WIP, might post further progress later. I'm trying to teach myself to stop autistically overrendering everything, any advice on that?
>>7964842so, a man>>7964841>dating men in their 40s, 50s, and 60s makes me a pedophile
>>7964679more lines on the face overall will make it look uglier and older, especially around the nose and mouth
>>7964844no i just think its like a mechanical thing that dent at the cheek area appears when the mouth stretches forward and it doesnt stretch in yours>why mean, faggotbroI thought i was doing /bant/ but i was just being a sperg
i just spent like 5 hours making this :D; any feedback? i had a lot of fun messing around in krita this time :3. if anyone rembers i posted the lil anime catgirl ace attorney thing last time
>>7964865>spends 5 hours on a drawing>completely ruins the focal point by putting stupid meme text over the faceGood job!
>>7964867oh on sec, i can undo that in krita, my bad :3
here fren, sorry i didn't think that through lol
>>7964864I misread the tone is allthe cheek dent line is just something I saw a lot in other drawings so I added it without much thought (as usual), so you're in the right here
>>7964859Eventually you'll get tired of over rendering because you'll need to do smaller "studies" and force yourself to stop at a certain point.Over rendering is a good curse though, and better than the opposite which is being stuck in sketch hell.
>>7964762I noticed that you tend to fuck up your perspective just sooo ever slightly and you are pretty consistent at the same mistake in most of your drawings. Do you see it?
>>7964852technically the neck is attached to the back of the head, but it’s sometimes drawn as if it were centered. depends on the artstyle teebeeeich
>>7964880what i mean is i sometimes do this, and make it like et which is what others say when i draw sometimes
>>7964883that's not the back of the neck, it's literally in front of the ear
>>7964887ah i see where i fuck up, got u
>>7964871Not the previous anon, but here a couple of suggestions:- if not constrained by your hardware, try upping the resolution and/or dpi of your canvas or using a smaller brushsize; if you’re not setting out to do pixel art, the pixels of your brushstrokes should not be as visible as they are in this piece- even without the text, the image lacks visual hierarchy and composition; the background (which I am assuming is a screenshot of something?) is too detailed and draws the eye away from the figure in front; you could fix this by either adding detail to the character (even just adding shading might make a difference) or making the background less detailed by blurring it or taking out the value contrast- some of the form/anatomy looks a bit odd (the torso area and characters left arm look okay, but for instance the way the chin meets the hair on the characters right side or the right forearm/hand lacks defined shape to me); this is just something you will inevitably develop a feeling for if you continue practicing, but doing occasional anatomy studies mixed in with personal pieces will speed this development up considerablyAnyway, best of luck :)
Finally came around to finish my lady knight.I wish I knew how to properly paint stuff, it could save my a lot of linework, especially on the wings.
>>7964896-I intentionally went with a 450x650 canvas and resized cuz i like the look. :3, but thanks anyhoo :D-yeah it's a danganronpa asset; i'll keep all that in mind next time, thank you :)-yeah i'm still working on fundamentals and bodies and stuff; i'll try my best to improve, thank you! :3i appreciate it anon thanks a ton.
>>7964876i can see mistakes on the bottom fighter. and the upper ones standing pads. the robot i dont see any perspective error.
>>7964827let me annoy you a bit more
>>7964900cool designbut why is she inside a white cubeshe should be on a cliff overlooking a battlefield or something
>>7964914Agree, I'm a lazy bastard when it comes to drawing backgrounds.
>>7964871literally what even is this>>7964880>>7964852NOOOPEits attached right at the bottom of the skull
>>7964492>>7964539i probably should have made this a separate file rather than shrinking the image down so much and drawing at low res in my scribble file
>>7964620My lazy attempt
>>7964927don't cope with 'laziness', you've got cool ideas, give them your best effort
>>7964924like under the cerebullum?
>woke up in the morning after fixing sleep schedule>play vidya with a friend since we hadn't played in awhile and told myself i would draw after>play for a couple of hours, feel tired so go to take a nap>"nap" for 7 hours >didn't draw at all and now the day is almost overfuuuug
>>7964933look at an xray of a headthe SPINE attaches right in the middle of the cranium behind the jaw, its the only consistent factorbulk goes back, fat goes forwardthank you for your attention of this matter follow me on xitter
>>7964938nigga that's below the head and at the back of the head. Just shut the fuck already, never give tips again or at least use #AI before you post, stop having chimp eureka moments
>>7964939i extend you my hand but you slap it awaywhy do i bother helping people anymore, trying to lead a bunch of deaf blind retards
>>7964940Because i have Grok.And eyes. and both grok and my eyes say that it's attached to the back of the cranium (behind le ear) and i know that the frontal part is attached to a funny bone called...Hyoid which i totally did not google. that's why, your egotistical/artist attitude is disgusting and i fucking hate artists so much it's unreal.
>>7964941>Because i have Grok.Rope.
>>7964941back of the cranium is not behind the ear you fucking retard, thats literally the middle of the skullwait, why am i trying to help a crab faggotno youre right bro! sorry for being "egotistical", draw it at the BACK of the head! makes complete sense!
jesus christ all i asked was about the postion of where the neck inserts into the skullbut i ask does anyone know any good places to find hairstyles that show off the forehead? i wanna draw a 5 head cutie
>>7964946at the back bro!
>>7964948thanks for ref bro
>>7964945negative, you are a retard >>7964948Thanks bb now this is helpful, neck and cranium end behind the ear. Then again you are obviously fucking retarded and autistic that you probably think that being 1cm below the earlobe turns it into a completely different place. Kinda feel bad for your parents ngl
>>7964946all the works of souichirou yamamoto feature prominent 5headsyou'll find something good there
>>7964952i deathmog youyou will never be as good as i was a few months agoyou dont drawi own you
The homosexuals are fighting
>>7964955i don't need to draw to know that you are retarded
>admitted to it
>>7964946The neck isn't straight, it curves and holds at a slight angle of the head.
>>7964969it curves?it do?like by how much?
quick warm from imagination as fast as possible, quite fun. I really need to draw more ribbons.>>7964703is this your work? great work dude. The faces are really hard for me to read. It feels like more love and care was spent on the clothing than on the characters' faces. The first guy is the one I like the most because he's the easiest to read.>>7964704great results take time, 4 days is nothing, overtime as you improve your workflow you will get faster.>>7964762This one is tough. When it comes to selling video game assets, rendering and delivering workable outputs are extremely important. How are your rendering skills?Besides video games, mecha is a very niche market, and people tend to be more interested in figurines and models than drawings. However, I can maybe see an opportunity in selling blueprint-style illustrations.If I were you, I would try creating a simple shooter game using Construct 3 or redot/godot something very bare bones. That way, you can get familiar with what's needed to create art for video games.
>>7964970Anime aesthetic doesn't usually draw a literal curve of the neck, they tend to just draw it angled (except for front view) If you want realistic proportions then yes it literally curves.
>>7964972but the connection to the head isnt a straight line then? but is at an angle
>>7964924it's my oc :3 in a lil pose, idk what to tell ya. i just felt like making something, and wanted feedback :)
>>7964970
the middlethe middlethe middle
>>7964972there's no anime aesthetic. It depends on the character or artist (real)
>>7964988i don't have like actual feedback, but this is really cute :D! i love your artstyle
>>7964971>is this your work?yeah, thank you. Glad to see it wasn't for nothing. I guess I could have tried to exaggerate their postures a little bit more since they are all standing in almost the same way. But basically, the guy with glasses tries to be as plain as possible to hide the fact he's a wizard, since those used to be burned alive. The archer is brooding and vengeful. The bard is friendly as a way to compensate for his flaws, and the fighter pretends to be the monster everyone thinks he is as a way to protect himself from others
>>7964987thats another issue of mine i make the gal too barrel chested,fuccck
How's my sketch going? 1 hour. I plan on fully coloring and rendering it to make a table of prices and hopefully sell comissions but...Honestly I might be too green for that. It's been years since I made a digital drawing so I can't evaluate how wrong this is. I think I got the upper body right..? I like the shoulders. Iffy on the rest.It's just the sketch phase so it has room to improve, but if it's wrong since here I might as well ask you guys first.
>>7964993another is that you're sticking face symbols on a planesee >>7952671
>>7964703>>7964992Agree with the other anon, this looks amazing and has a lot of character, especially the clothing. I think the problem with the expressions is that all 4 look samey next to each other, 3 out of 4 are pouting in pretty much an identical way; if if was any 1 of them in a solo picture instead, it wouldn't be a problem at all IMO.
>>7964999fuckyou are right i dont really add all the curves of the face when i do animu faces
heres my question, how best do i show form on a simplified anime head
>>7964994try redrawing the pose to better define the line of action, a pose usually involves the entire body, but her lower body seems to be facing the camera while the upper body is facing away. That's not impossible, of course, but her current pose seems too relaxed for that, she is not suddenly turning to face a threat or something. Try watching a few tutorials on figure drawing. It works wonders. Everything can be simplified into basic shapes to make poses and proportions easier
I colored the sketch I posted a few days ago. How is it?I used a mix of Tombow colored pencils and Ohuhu markers for the background, but only colored pencils for Chieri, and I think it shows. Would I have to buy Prismacolors to avoid the colored pencil texture you can see in her hair here?
>>7965007https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWEKKwKZtWUJust watch all of his head videos, he has a bunch
>>7964991thanks :)
>>7965001alright, will try to make them all more in-character next time. I appreciate it.
AHH FUCK I HAVEN'T DRAWN PLEASSE
Painting of an elderly dog
>>7964908Yeah on the bottom fighter, you tend to bring that part of the subject a little to far forward, or the left part that is too far back. But I seen that same problem on other drawings like with a tank you drew. Its just a nitpick. Yeah I don't see anything wrong with the robot. The shallow angles tend to be easier to make mistakes since they effect the perspective more because the angle is pretty shallow compared to the angle of the robot (the camera is higher).
>>7965038Lol. You captured it's stupid face well. Good job.
>>7965070who did u study for ur hand construction?

SOSAm I ignoring the perspective lines too much? Do I need to exaggerate the hmagmangfjjkalfe
>>7965077Th shading under the straps should have harder edges because they're cast shadows. Do yourself a real quick favor and look up the types of shadow "edges". It'll make your art piece look really really good I promise.

>>7965015Kinda wanted to keep the same relaxed, hesitating pose. I hope I made it a bit more dynamic.Now to see if colors or rendering can turn this piece into something good

>>7964931I think it's time I move on
me the danganronpa bootleg guy; i was bored here's a 10 minute doodle
Is there a way to improve this composition or colorwise?
>>7965195where is your focal point
>>7965196Judging by that question, I guess nowhere.I'm a composition noob.I guess in picrel it would be the area around the dude that is raising his sword in the air.Because it seems a little brighter.Is that so?
>>7965197or maybe it is becasue both the blue and red colors seem kinda strong.What if i just desaturate the blue colors, so that the left and right side aren't fighting for attention that much?
>>7965197>>7965199Well im not expert but strong contrast and higher amount of details are good ways to bring attention to an area right now the things that draw most attention in your image is the gunfire due to the contrast
>>7965203okay, i guess i will desaturate the red areas instead and bring more attention to the marines, since the muzzle flashes already draw so much attention.Thanks
>>7965205I would also make the scene overall darker in value to make the light and colors really pop but thats just personal preference and totally up to yougood work so far, I like the painting
>>7965179We’re very friendly :^)
>>7965230400 Reply Page 4 like clockwork
>>7965221thanks for the recommendation.I think it looks better now
>>7965184Well this ended up taking about 12 hours, it's not as fast as I thought it would be. I won't be able to pump these out in the middle of the week
>>7965261How's this? Did I finally make something worth money? I'd be happy if I can at least be part of the /beg/s who get a couple of bucks for their drawings, it's a better tier than merely being /beg/ and poor.
>>7965261Cool work Tsukianon. Looks like the cover of some vintage terror obscure manga from the 80s or 70s.
first time trying to color and shade the copy instead of just the figure itself. took me 5 hours to do according to krita.
Keep trying to draw
>>7965266can you post the ref? Those ar some weird proportions, especially the arms and feet. The colors also feel off, you get more contrast between light and shadow on a bright day outside. Also you forgot her cast shadow.
>>7965134egg>>7964703cool shit>>7964971cute
>>7965261I was refraining from commenting since I'm /beg/ and have no constructive criticism to offer, but it's really cool. The change in the pose really improved it earlier, and I like how you added the reflected light on her clothes.
>>7965266The colors look extremely washed out. Did you just paint on top of the white canvas with a semi transparent brush?
>>7965261Very cool, I think it's a lovely piece. There's no barrier to entry for commissions, you should start them as soon as you want and can find clients.As for crit, the hands are too small in relation to the arms and head, and the head is a tad too big for the body proportions (unless you're going for a younger character, in which case the body would be too tall). The perspective is a bit wonky in that the floor and shoes suggest a low horizon / eye level, while the torso and neck imply a higher eye level. For painting, you should make a stronger separation between the areas hit directly by moonlight vs the ones hit by reflected light. Right now they are too close in value.

has your hand gotten steadier over time? i have been practicing making straight horizontal and vertical lines and circles and squares and i am still shaky
>>7965378straight horizontal and vertical are kinda unnatural to draw (at least with the elbow), I practice them as warmups and they slowly get better, but if I really need one I'll just turn the canvas
>>7965378You need to do 10 pencil lift x 3 set daily with protein shake and creatine chaser. Supplement boxes as needed
>>7965380im trying to practice drawing entirely fro mthe shoulder right now. sometimes the lines come out really good, but other times there are these random dips, i cant figure it out. i think the dips are from my heart beat
>>7965385Ik one way to stop your heart
>>7965378No, I have such shaky ass hands I can barely hold a cup right let alone draw smooth lines. I just abuse stabilizers when needed.
>>7965365
>>7965395Grotesque and repulsive. More.
>>7965395 wtf but not like that, she's a 24 year old woman add curves
>>7965328The posting rate always drops a ton as soon as the thread hits bump limit. People don’t have the agency to ctrl+f for “/beg/“, as soon as the thread isn’t at the top of the catalog anymore they just forget that it exists I guess
>>7965401>they just forget that it exists I guessGod I wish that was me...
>>7965401Oh but God forbid you make a thread at bump limit
>>7965395i must be tired, i can't believe i thought posting this shit was fine
>>7965270Thanks. Your little gremlin dude is cooler
>>7965395Lore accurate body
>>7965395Got that Ashkenazi jewess camp build. I bet Jax absolutely destroys those flapjacks
>>7965395stop staring at me with em big ole eyes
>>7965403Just go anon... You don't owe anything to anyone here... You can go.. You have the right to be happy too ... just go...:> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CRewWjrBLbs
>>7965405Well it only takes 1-2 days to hit bump limit but threads stay on the catalog for a week. If we just made threads as fast as possible then we’d fill up the catalog with /beg/ threads. I think waiting until page 8 is reasonable
>>7965328On Discord, you didn't get the invite?
>>7965425That, and also killing a thread is cruel to anons who posted their work and are just waiting for someone to give them a critique or a simple reply to cheer them up
>>7965426I would eat dick before joining any Discord here
>>7965400no. its lore accurate >>7965395whatever this is, i like it>>7965410thank u <3they can be little buddies
>>7965429Really cute!Why did you name yourself “/beg/ and /int/“?
>>7965268yes here is the pic, and yeah i forgot her shadow on the ground>>7965299i don't know how to actually color, so what i did is i picked a base color that seemed close to the original and colored in the lines and then after that i made another layer to try to use a darker version of the color to "shade"
>>7965395Soul
What drives people to hang around here for years and years, continually failing and making no progress?
>>7965453what else is there to do
>>7965446You either need to learn how to draw feet enough to make the entire piece coordinated, or crop them out entirely. The way you drew them are distractingly lower quality than the rest of your beautifully rendered piece (footfag please die), but when someone goes to like your post or retweet it whatever, that's the last thing that is going to be burnt into their mind since it sits above the typical place people type responses or make actions on a piece they're interested in. >>7965453Seeing others that "make it".
>>7965460Holy kek that'sTHAT'S THE REFERENCE PIECE? samefag but holy shit I can't believe other people out there are having their shit referenced and are having these issues. orz I thought this was the loli guy that posts here.
>>7965330Medical journals, videos of animals getting surgery on youtube, possibly humans getting surgery on youtube, people preparing organs to be cooked from animals. Humans are animals.
>>7965166there are mistakes. But damn. I do really love this.
>>7965462reference doesn't mean copying it, you still have to solve the piece and the construction, it's like the hardest part of the process retard kun
>>7965446that reference also has some of the same problems, especially the feet like the other anon mentioned (and some of the shapes are very flat, like the bag)if you're going to copy someone, make sure they're a professional
>>7965261It's good but... it took 12 hours? What part of your process do you think took the longest? I can imagine this happening in maybe 4 hours if you had a thumbnail sketch ready on the side to reference...? Maybe we can help you with your work flow or something.>>7965470Your ESL is showing.
>>7965471ill try to look for better pictures. i had just scoured over random pixiv pictures and saved a bunch en masse that looked good enough at a glance.
>>7965479you have the right idea with increasing contrast and giving the moon some glowbut that careless airbrush is around the body is pretty bad
>>7965485My apologies. Could you please show the guy a better way to achieve a better effect?
>Shoulder stretch
>>7965487Oh nonono not the elephantiasis foot
>>7965489I know her left foot didn't turn out that well. I feel I should have redrawn it completely
>>7965487is there any lore behind her haircut? its very unique, and whats she hiding behind those bangs?
>>7965492She likes having her hair like that :D
>>7965486nta the glow in the figure is too light. The moon is acting as the strongest light source in the scene and is behind and above making for a rim light around the figure. The reason yours doesn't work is because it eliminates the terminator and violates the boundary between light and shadow. The glow spilling from the rim light that you see in the shadow or as a result of some other effect should not be lighter or as bright as the lit side of the figure (which we can only partially see since the light is behind it). You need to be more intentional with how you use the airbrush.

Boxes, cylinders
more warm up imagination as fast as possible, oddish is fun to draw>>7965429cute oddish>>7965195cool work>compositionThe arrangement of the elements is fine, but the values are not working as well.Composition should serve the story context. For me, it's more interesting to see the explosion first and then discover the source of that carnage. Because of that, I would make the left side brighter while keeping the robot spider's shape darker. You could also use the laser as a guide that leads the viewer into the darker side of the image.Additionally, you can increase the saturation of the blue characters. Since blue is naturally a dark hue, it can be pushed further in saturation without hurting the value structure, making them easier to read.Edit to illustrate what I mean, it's just a quick adjustment of the color balance and contrast.>>7964992I think the poses are fine, it's just the faces that, for my taste, are too small, which makes their expressions hard to read.
I need to practice drawing figures in perspective more. It didn't turn out looking right, mostly due to how I drew the head I think
>>7965479>>7965302>>7965284>>7965265Thank you! I tried to integrate your comments into fixing it. The proportions I'll have to live with it, I myself was confused. I based it on a girl I know who LOOKS tall but is actually short, confusing thing. So I made her 6 heads tall while having tall people proportions or something. Call it a quirk of nature. >>7965510ACK I GOT MOGGED. Honestly I kinda knew I could make her much darker, but I wanted to keep the "base character" without changing her color too much, as it was my first time drawing her. Why choose a moon background then, indeed. I just made her bluish to represent shadow. Full picture here because fk it I made it 3000 px tall, I have to show it.https://files.catbox.moe/9k5g5s.png
>>7965427That's just disingenuous. If someone doesn't get replied to within an hour of posting it's not going to get replied to. It's not cruel to anyone. Half the time they just repost o new the new thread and still don't get replied to. Are you saying people are cruel for not caring? What? Do you suggest everyone get one guaranteed (you)? Give me a fucking break
>>7965267If you're using the box method of constructing cylinders, make sure that the edges of the cylinder line up with the edges of the box and go to the same vanishing point. In this one for example, you can see that the green edge of the cylinder does not converge with the red edges of the box
>>7965533It's more likely to be an issue if someone makes a new post like 5 minutes before a new thread gets created. Then you might genuinely be robbing them of replies. I do think that's part of why discussion slows down as the thread gets older, people would rather just wait for the new thread so they can generate the maximum amount of discussion on their posts.
>>7965329Second one. It takes time, but it is impressive how much detail I maintain on the next interaction. I want to give it a try making them again from memory one week later now.
>>7965536People looking to farm for yous will repost to the new thread immediately. You literally see it happen all the time. Ridiculous to me that some people are even farming yous in the same way they're farming likes. Validation craving zogs
>>7965521thanks.I screenshot your post and image to refer back to it once i get to coloring

>>7965552gardevoir is my wife, yes.Love you too

I’m going to break the curse and end the cycle of suffering.I’m going to git gud.I’m going to do it.
drew my robirt :3
>>7965522Any crit or thoughts appreciated:D
Need some help with the head. I think it looks... too manly or something? It could be the hair now that I think about it. Maybe I should make it longer?
>>7965522the differewnt types of shading kinda throw it offi would suggest do either hard line or soft line>>7965586yeah make hair longeri like this one :3
>>7965563tried capturing what this thumbnail looked like with my glasses off
also here's an actual bath drawing>>7965586maybe her hairline is too tall
>>7965589AHAHAHAAHAHHAHAthis is art
>>7965591goddammit forgive my retarded namefagging
>>7965586I think the jaw might be too wide, try making it more like a point
>>7965586idk what you're going for with her design, but the skull structure you gave her is inherently masculine. So to preserve that kind of warrior skull structure, you just exaggerate her feminine features, like give her thicker eyelashes. Her forehead was also too pronounced. I also made her brow ridge slightly less pronounced by just removing the defining top lines.
>>7965619
got rejected from an arts and design school but the guy said i have talent in drawing. which one is it? you fuck
goodnight SCRIBBLEMANIACS and crab nodraws without a life that don't know it a work when you work a work and work yourself into a shoot,crabs
I don't draw, I just follow this general
>>7965522great color selection on the girl, it just looks goodi think making the horizon/sky lighter might improve the aesthetic (and putting more effort into the sand, i dont know much about sand but yeah...)
>>7965670Thanks! I’ll keep working on backgrounds, I have been slowly easing into making them instead of white voids or color squares.
>>7965685left eye is too far off the face and isnt aligned, other than that looks good
>>7965686you're right... fixed it thank you <3
>>7965690No you moved it down too much. Use lines
>>7965693oops. third times the charm!
are we playing "pin the left eye on the anime girl"
>>7965697that's a boy
>>7965700I used to play the Love Live mobage religiously I am immune to your lies
>>7965699perfect
>didnt draw yesterday>know i need to today>thinking this way causes me to make art feel more risky and a bigger task than it actually is>feel like drawing even less now, but the internal knowledge that i need to draw grows even more>causes me to end up crying and beating myself up over not doing anything>go through this cycle practically every single dayhow do i escape this cycle of torment
>>7965510Oh! Very good to see it explained. Thanks. I will definitely look more into this too somce I never knew there was a rule regarding the glow itself too
