I will be drawing this, feel free to join me
genuinely what do you gain from picking such ugly references
>>8014800It's the absolute peak of feminine beauty.
>>8014811nta but the picture is overexposed and blurry. use better references
whole lot of talentless fags coming in with their opinions all of a sudden
>>8014782good luck, anon
>>8014825thanks
>>8014820It's actually neither of those things, are you serious?
>>8014800The crab lashes out when he sees someone drawing and encouraging others
>>8014856it looks like shit
>>8014926So does your face, pal.
>>8014800Sometimes the ugly ones reveal a lot of structure that’s otherwise more obscure. Look at that massive neanderthal forehead and those weird, high cheekbones. Her nose is also quite distinctive in its shape. As an artist you should be all over that stuff
>>8014783looks really good so far!
>>8014783Good stuff. You have a great sense of depth.
>>8014939what anime does to a mf
Complain all you want, still better than most "draw this in your own style" threads we had
>>8014783>>8014782And where's the drawing? You surely didn't waste an entire day only to not finish drawing one of the ugliest women i've ever seen from a reference right?You are using a reference so where's the drawing? Cheating and still no output?
>>8015235Shoo, troll
>>8015244wtf don't shoo me reeeeeee
>>8015228very nice
>>8015235That took me about a couple of hours you scrub, some of us are actually busy and and work to do and don't just goon all day.
Took a really quick stab at it, would like to give it 30 more minutes later. Or draw it again. Thanks for the ref, anon.>>8015228You really softened her features lol. She looks much more overall appealing I guess, but rather generic.Want me to post some other refs? I have a fair few saved of women with strong facial features.>>8015318Take your time anon. You may want to do a few value thumbnails and the like, to work quicker and get more practice in. Though it seems you're doing detailed rendering practice, right? Looks good. Think it'd be good if you also had the top of the shoulder. The black top games the face nicely.
>>8015318not true
A whole lot of talking and very little drawing in this thread
>>8015448>talks without drawing
I'm drawing this now brother
>>8014782Studio lighting lowkey was pissing me off towards the end so i just did whatever.6/10 Reference, unusal face saves it.
the shirt or dress or whatever was really annoying
>>8015675>>8015641nice, good effort on capturing the unusual lighting
>>8015641in particular the blue reflections on the hair
This is not a beg friendly reference. I'm going to study some of what the draw-chads did and return
>>8014782
Damn, makes me wanna try it. Androgynous people are extremely hard to keep androgynous and leaning towards their actual sex. Many of the paintings in this thread look like trannies or dudes, when the ref is clearly a female with a pronounced bone structure. I feel like if I attempt it I'll fuck it up, but it's worth giving a try
THATS A WOMAN?????????
The striking eyes are the best part of the image, I would recommend committing extra time to them>>8015397I've never been one to do thumbnails, maybe I should>>8016426cool style>>8016040I agree
>>8015773Yes, I think the challenge comes from the subject's unusually sharp featured combined with the extreme camera angle. But that's why I picked this particular image, it forces you to really consider facial structure. On the other hand the color and values are interesting but not too complicated. The fluorescent lighting means that the surfaces facing away from the viewer are very desaturated, and by far the most saturated areas are the crevices. I recommend to anyone drawing a full color version to take note of the faint blue glint at the edges of the hair, which I think looks interesting. Pic related is another good reference for if you want to practice color in hard mode. I found it to be much more complicated than it looks.
>>8016499
Women without makeup just rub me the wrong way I get it, you're a feminist, but also trying to be a man. Ugh
>>8014800>>8014820>>8014926>>8015235>>8015407>>8016444>>8016524Why does a thread where people are actually drawing offend you this much, Jeet-kun?
>>8016547good question.
>>8016452inspiring work anon, good job! a small criticism if I may, the section between nose shadow and upper lip looks a bit odd, has this joaquin phoenix feeling, is it maybe too saturated? cant really say hope it helps
>>8016602Yea I see what you mean, thanks.
>>8016547All I fucking did was ask if that was really a woman, dumbass, not that fucking complicated.>>8016602Amano is that you.
>>8016606ok, but can you stop shitting in the street please?
>>8016608Seeing indians everywhere you go even online? Umprompted? Out of nowhere? What a sad way to live.
>>8016452simply superb.
>>8016452Great stuff
>>8016444this is your brain on anime
>>8016609>not denying itAnon got em again.
>>8016912>Saying yes>ZOMG GUYS HE ADMITTED IT LOLOLOLOLOL>Saying no >ZOMG GUYS HES COPING SO HARD LOLOLOLOLOLOL>Saying nothing >ZOMG GUYS HES DEFLECTING LOLOLOLOLOLThe pidgeon will shit on the board and pretend it won. Last reply I give you.
>>8017410Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
>>8017410anyone not brown would have realized a simple way to dismiss accusations of being brown lol
Bumping thread in case anyone is still interested in participating
>>8017410Final proof needed
one more before this thread is forgotten.
Test
>>8015773>>8016499I tried, and I only attempted to stab my pencil into my throat twice and swore of art forever once while torturing this onto the page.
>>8018673I’m making her an insomniac. It speaks to me>>8019287Nice
>>8014782quick study, wasnt really fussed about accuracy so it looks nothing like her lolapprox 90 minutes
CSP has decided that I’ve used too much memory, so imma stopThis was fun tho
>>8019818perhaps you're overthinking certain details around the face>>8019788well done for 90 mins>>8019287cool>>8019090ah well I can see you understand the basics at least. Currently the face looks stretched out horizontally and the mouth is in the wrong spot
I'm one of those dramatic people who always shit on their own work, but I'm actually pleasantly surprised how close I got
>>8019882>perhaps you're overthinking certain details around the faceNah. I made it up because the original is overexposed like someone on here stated, and i want to practice skin coloringI'm not going for accuracy. A lot of model photography is overexposed because they want to hide imperfections. Imperfections is key in artistic expression
>>8019977I do need an easier way to color tho
>>8014782Dunno what the fuck I was doing with the shadows but it looked alright to me
>>8021800looks good
>>8021800mogs me
>>8021800I like this one the most. Pure essence
>>8021800Kino
giving this one more bump
>>8025318theres so many pictures like this where part of the head/hair is missingwhy do they keep doing it there must be a reason as it happens way too often
>>8025346It's good framing if they want you to focus on the face
I'm not going to copy a reference that people will recognize. I only draw original things or things where the reference will never be found.
I tried
>>8025318
>>8016500are you just drawing over the photo?
>>8026232>>8026407good effort>>8026961no>>8026611>>8026988lovely
>>8027029>nopretty coolleft eye and nose bridge could take a lil cleaning up
>>8027042problem is that anytime I try to clean something up it doesn't look right anymore so at some point I just give up.
>>8027075understandable. a few strokes to round the tip, a few strokes to get the iris a bit more properly in there... a new layer... its digital after all.dont get me wrong, very nicely done. impressive really. how did you learn?
>>8027201good effort, are you drawing with a mouse?>>8027139on my own mostly.
>>8027585Digital tablet, Procreate specifically with some downloaded brushes, and thank you.
>>8014782kinda looks like my oc :)
>>8021800WAOW
>>8027840>>8028249King from One Punch Man
>>8028287i kinda see it
>>8027840I like it
>>8014782>>8025318might finish 2nd one, might not bother. feedback would be a fine thing
>>8031797the second drawing looks significantly better imo, I recommend finishing it. The jaw in the first image protrudes forward too much and is too square, which is also how a lot of guys here have been drawing it.
>>8025318taking a shot at this
Just wanted to doodle
>>8032622cute
>>8032622best itt
Fun exercise.
>>8032933nice
>>8032622>>8032933>>[every-other-pic-in-the-thread]How much time do these sketches take?
>>8033082Doubt it's more than an hour
>>8033082more than an hour
>>8016602This is pretty good! >>8019287Hmmm, this is good too! >>8021800HOLY MOLLY! TRAD!>>8032622Good try! And for everyone who was SKIPPED, don't worry it is all good!
>>8032083
>>8033082Depending on the situation anywhere from 30min to 1.5 hours. I've started making myself get up @4am and drawing or painting for an hour every week day, and it's really sped me up. Still working on accuracy though.
>>8014782FUN!
>>8033161very nice!
>>8033162You like? HAHAHAHA
>>8033165I was just kidding, it sucks actually.
>>8033166I still enjoy drawing it HAHAHAHA
>>8033169:)
>>8033082Mine was a 20 minute draw
>>8033161>>8033165her shirt turns into bare legs this is fucking me up still nice
>>8033082
>>8033476>her!?It is he/him and it is Mr!
not done yet but i got some 12 hour shifts coming up so itll be a bit before i can get back to it
>>8034938looks good so far, you have a better grasp of the facial structure than most here
renderfags coping itt
>>8035063what does this mean?
>>8014782>feel free to join meNo, I don’t think I will
>>8035558ok
I got bored and i also fucked up the proportions, the face is longer than i drew it as
>>8036183only slightly, looks pretty close
its really funny, you post some foid reference to draw and all the coomhead simps jump straight ahead to draw such a boring reference with no value whatsoever, artistically and literally.
>>8014782not totally happy with it but im bored
>>8036823Post a better ref then, I will draw it
>>8036823Are you upset?
>>8036987ugh yes, im sorry but I was acting out because my hemorrhoids have been playing up hell. Sometimes I just want to stick a 9H pencil up my rectum!
>>8036823the funny thing is that you don't draw
adda go
>>8037958Good effort. The coloring could use more work but the proportions are good.
>>8036823Isn't this literally a man?? Are you retarded
>>8038229Very nice
>>8038666thank you satan
>>8016444>literally can't tell what a woman is if it looked him in the eyelmao
>>8035063>there is nothing to be learned from practicingdumbest post I've seen all year and that's saying something
>>8038876inhales the second hand cope
>>8038210its shwarzenegger juniors fiance, doofus. just use yandex. there even is a fucking filename. she looks less masculine in other pictures but still more masculine than her soon to be husband. i mean, good for him, maybe he can produce an heir to the shwarzenegger masculinity mythos, otherwise the half spic mutt will have to take the crown from king conan. the photo is still bad for drawing and no i wont post better pictures, i'm done spoonfeeding /ic/. its a constant circle of howies, either pretend or genuine. i'd rather keep and draw for myself.
>>8038895There is a certain type of man who is only attracted to women who look like children, the sight of a fully developed woman intimidates them.
heres a better reference for you babbys
>>8038905>the sight of a fully developed woman intimidates them.Do people unironically believe that there's men who are intimidated by women? I thought this was just a thing women say to provoke and escalate a conflict.It's a bit like hating gays means you are gay. It makes no sense, but people argue like that all the time online.
>>8038919>It's a bit like hating gays means you are gay. It makes no sense, but people argue like that all the time online.It's nothing like that at all. You can't tell me that the concept of men being intimidated by women is new to you
>>8033151continuing I think some people struggle to understand faces, they think good facial structure and a strong jaw = masculine, and child like/neotenous = feminine. This is simply not true. Peoples personal sexual preferences no doubt also influence their perception of what is and isn't feminine. Guys who prefer submissive, childlike, unintimidating girls are usually the types to accuse women with a well developed facial structure of looking like a man. This usually comes from feelings of insecurity around women, the same kind of insecurity that leads some guys to pursue asian girls.
mehhad good color practice thoughalso, I have not a fucking clue on how to properly render realistic hair
>>8038919>Do people unironically believe that there's men who are intimidated by women?Well, they can fucking obliterate you emotionally, so yeah, they can be intimidatingNow, the fact that they use heterosexual men's natural subconscious vulnerability to them to basically rationalize everything as "intimidation" to further social/political goals, well that's something else Like, women in leadership positions aren't scary, they're insufferable
>>8038919theres a long train of evidence of hypocrisy from 'conservatives' who are queer, pedophiles, and cheaters, and traffickers. its public info.if youve never seen a man stutter in the face of a beautiful woman, you havent really left the house. happens all the time.in fact, "alpha' bros pay tens of thousandsof dollars to practice speaking to women.which is stupid because that just wastes your hooker money.
>>8039555Good effort. The key to drawing good hair is to visualize it as a whole shape rather than individual strands.
>>8038895do you think people are thirst-baited by the most masculine looking horse faced bitch alive? Everyone here drew the ref because it was visually interesting not because they wanted to fuck her, rope+you dont draw
>>8039858Man, this board has really fallen off huh. Just kidding, it was always shit.
>>8039858>visually interestingit isnt>horse facedits a super model that look unconvenient, not ugly. and most of it is the angle, expression and makeup + crappy studio light
>>8039858I agree with you it is interesting and has good shapes to interpret your skill with, along with a pretty striking visual from her eyes and eyebrowsNo matter what these doofus nodraws are saying it is a good reference to exercise on.(honestly, I would love if they posted their own threads with what "good references are" simply because they might also have some good ideas and I want to practice on interesting shit)
>>8039858Why do you hate White features anon
>>8040125>and most of it is the angle, expression and makeup + crappy studio lightBut we're drawing all of these einstein, thats the point of the thread - draw this ref not "look up this person and draw her">it isntWell thank you for moving the goalpost im glad we agree nobody is cumming to this fucking photo>>8040151because im a die hard juglebooty chaser why else
>>8038913you think they told her to lift her top?here's my try and some inktober ideas (feel free to use)
>>8040774we got ourselves a new R crumb here , boys
>>8021800damn looks cool. where do you post your works anon
>>8014782I am not much of a constructioncel, I mostly just freehand studies, and that arm made me squirm so I ended up overthinking about the form.
frankly terrible pencilslop
>>8014782It is really hard to make this cave troll attractive. It looks like a man.
>>8042087its not a bad drawing.clearly you think it should be something else, which is finebut its not a bad drawing.congrats
elf lookin ass also holy shit captcha is an even bigger pain in the ass than before
>>8042277quite good>>8039858I draw her because drawing pretty girls is fun, and she's the absolute pinnacle of female beauty.
Tried to block in the shapes, but my proportions are off on the face.I guess i need to do 1000 more.
>>8044077do 10,000 quick and good ones, is better than 1,000 super high effort but bad ones.
>>8044145That's good advice, thank you. Will put to practice.
>>8044145Why would someone make high effort bad ones? This doesn't make sense.
>>8045026people do, and often "polish turds" thoughSometimes you need to accept this drawing is done and then do another and another in quick sucessionMake a few knives before you make a sword
>>8014782Tough reference - I find drawing real women difficult :(But this one was particularly tough!
>>8045056looks a little cross eyed and the mouth is protruding. Otherwise good effort, good line work.
>>8045061I've just come back and checked thisOof I see so many more mistakes than I realised - thanks for pointing some out too
>>8045056>>8045277okay walking away from this nowfun challenge OP
>>8038895gigachad and gigastacy personified
i fixed it up a bit after learning shes a woman and not a man lmao
>>8042277One of the best realism attempts here
bump
>>8051644here you go
>>8053680nice
>>8014782I'm terrible at drawing women icl
>>8044145>>8045032I heavily disagree. Even if you try hard, you're still going to make " bad ones" , just at a more rapid rate. I do think generally mileage is key to getting to the "good art" faster , but there are diminishing returns after a while depending on what you practice. Generally most people's problems are drawing so doing a ton more sketching and inking is far more useful than grinding out paintings without a clear goal , but then after a while you'll be great at drawing and be useless when it comes to color , composition or rendering. I think learning art is nuanced and requires deliberate thoughts, goals and experimentation to properly learn the right balance of what to practice to develop your skills , just like anything else.
>>8053680Good stuff >>8056571Simpler, curvier lines. Less is more
>>8014782>Always be practicingYeahGreat thread many beautiful renditions!>>8021800I think this is my fav!
I bucket filled the background by mistake and I thought it looked really cool.
>>8056571you made her look guatemalan and with an extra 50 pounds
>>8056679amazing. Possibly your best work.
>>8057115This made me laugh so much, I'll need to drop the planar gimmick on female faces >>8056679Amazing stuff
>>8056686unique
>>8056679wtf is wrong with the tits damm
>>8057590bro likes the saggydigs the milf
>>8014782>>8016499>>8018350>>8025318>>8038895That doesn't look like the OP image. Two different people.
>>8057874Nope, same person. Just an extreme camera angle.
