**Strive for quantity AND quality.**

Anime Studying:
>Copy anime references exactly and draw them from memory. Use illustrations, screenshots, anime figures, 3D models, etc.
>Don’t copy recklessly. Use construction, color theory, and other fundamental concepts to rehearse a drawing process that you can later easily manipulate for original artwork.
>Post all of your anime studies. Post even when you’re told not to. Create an art community that actually draws and improves together instead of just talking about it.
>Number your attempts and link to your previous posts.
>Critiquers should lead by example by posting their studies.

General Anime Style Discussion:
>Questions about achieving certain styles/techniques/compositions etc.
>Drawing methods, study habits, resources, tutorials, tools, software, etc
>Be specific and try to post a sample of your study attempts before asking for help.

**Draw copies from good anime styled references to mindfully up our mileage, internalize appealing aesthetics, and learn from each other’s processes and knowledge.**

Quick sketch before bed. Really misjudged the sizing and proportions here. Any tips on drawing both eyes properly? I always mess up the second eye I draw. I know I'm suppose to imagine the eye as a 3d form but I can tell I fucked it up with the right eye and also didn't place it along the curve of the head accurately.

Everyone here seems to be learning to draw anime girls but this is Anime Study General, are there any resources for learning how to draw backgrounds and other objects? I want to move beyond 1girl white void.

Is it considered cheating to zoom in on tablet to do details and get lines as neat as possible?
>>
>>8001128
no but if you're a beginner the details don't matter so it's a waste of time

sakugabooru
search background_design or just search an anime you like
>>
>>8001128
Nah. It's one of those things where people will claim it makes you develop bad habits, but it's definitely not "cheating"
>>
>>8001128
it's would say it's pretty much necessary for precise anime inking.
for roughing it can be harmful because you lose track of the bigger picture more easily, it becomes harder to balance the gesture of one part with everything else.
but in either case having the image up on a second monitor or unzooming frequently to check your work is good.
