Some guy in /gg/ gave me more context into everything that happened to that dude that fateful day so I think I will take it out after all. He's been brought up in an environment where that kind of thing is taken very seriously and considering everything else that happened I guess I'll show a little empathy just this once.

Yeah don't focus too much on coloring yet, you're going to want to work on your line quality and drawing fundamentals first and foremost. You want to use long, clean lines rather than lots of little ones if you can help it.

Watch this; it's not perfect because it's about pencils but it translates alright to tablet as well.

>I break lines and shit. Is that an amateur problem?

It is one common problem, yeah, but one that's easy to correct with a little practice.
What it looks like you may be doing is drawing with a very thin line at only one magnification, and using your wrists more often than not to do so which is why you have so many tiny, broken lines. You want to sort of "awaken" the muscles in your shoulder and elbow through repetitive practice so you can use them to make the kinds of long, smooth lines that your wrist alone isn't capable of.

For example, you can probably draw a decent circle up to a certain size with your wrist, but going beyond that is impossible, whereas using your shoulders and elbow you can draw a circle as big as you want (http://youtu.be/eAhfZUZiwSE?t=1m3s) but may conversely find drawing very small circles or lines difficult.

Here's some more videos that I'm sure will help you

I rarely draw anything from imagination but I figured I'd give it a shot today. While it's disheartening that the best I could muster is a generic, somewhat androgynous barbarian it's a far cry better than my other most recent imaginative works, and that feels good.

Lemme make it easy on ya.

Head is WAY too big for that body.

Alternatively, the body is wayyyyy too small for the head.

Ain't nobody's mouth look like dat.

Ear is too low on the head.

The forehead is too small for the face.

Please remember that art takes from reality.

Symbolic drawing (drawing that relies on what you 'think' X should look like vs what X actually looks like).

I recommend you practice sketching something from IRL first to get a feel for how proportions are supposed to work then start stylizing thereafter.

Flip the skull upside down and then try drawing it again.

Also, don't draw an outline of the skull first (not sure if you do, but it is worth mentioning) because then you'll either run out of space to fit the eyes, nose and mouth or have large empty areas.

that might be because the biceps are too short for the length of the arm, and the muscles are compiled a bit strangely.

Pretty good man, only thing I see that might be a problem is his stage-right arm looks very slightly smaller than his left. Note how his elbow on this stage right arm sits higher than his other one even though his stage-left hand is farther up. That was kind of a mouthful but hopefully you understand what I'm saying.

Small hands, short legs, awkward proportions all-around, goofy pose, flat drawing, asymmetrical design and chicken-scratch lines …but you're drawing and that certainly counts for a lot more than most people know-keep doing it. Hold on to your drawings and your ideas, you'll certainly want to revisit them after you've invested a little time into formal drawing concepts.

For what it's worth, the first things I notice from looking at it are how small the hands are, how awkward his right leg is, and the angle of his right foot in particular. It shouldn't be able to bend so far. That said, the head and the torso show some promise.

Not a professional at giving art criticism by any means, but I'd say there's some nice volume to the chest, it doesn't look as flat as the rest of the drawing. The head has some nice detail without seeming too cluttered. And I forgot to mention this before, but the left flipper also looks like a good start, it looks like it's suspended on water alright to me.

I'm no expert on animals, but the first thing that comes to mind is that the wings seem to be way too high up. The beak might also be more slanted to the left than it should according to perspective, but I'm not too sure about that.

Also, I'm drawing something that's pretty fucking gay, I'm not too proud of it, but I like how the linework's coming along. I also have no experience whatsoever with this kind of pose, so if anyone has any comments at all on this shit I'd be thankful. Spoiled for mild NSFW.

Just being a fag and preparing my anus because I just know at some point some footfag will try to commission me, and probably a furry footfag at that. Send help. But if it happens I'll at least be able to tell you how well they pay.

As for your boar, look at pic related as reference. The main problem I see is that the shape of the neck should be convex, rather than concave. I can't see the shape of the curve of his head either, it makes it look like his right ear is actually a protrusion coming out of its forehead. Finally, the lowest tusk looks a bit too flat, make it a bit rounder and use the markings to give it volume. With those fixes in mind, it'd be a solid 8/10 IMO.

Let me do a little redline, if you don't mind. The only real problem I see is the shape of the jaw, the angle you used there is a tad steep IMO. The rest is mostly just my opinion, but I think the brow ridge could stand to be a bit more pronounced, and the eyes to be a bit more open.

Yeah that is pretty gay. The rendering is pretty solid though. One thing that kind of irks me is the foreshortening between the back stage-right leg and the back stage-left. The size discrepancy seems a bit too great, but I lack the formal skill to articulate it in the form of a red line.

You're completely right, foreshortening just kills me and I have an awful time getting it to look consistent. The stage left leg is meant to be a bit closer than the right one, and I probably exaggerated the difference. Aside from that, if you're sure the rendering and the anatomy in general are OK, I'm content with it. Thanks, nigga.

The chair is huge - she barely looks like she's sitting on it, if at all and the pose looks quite silly though I can tell what you were going for; you might want to use a reference from Castlevania or some such next time! The neck is enormous, keep your proportions in mind-there is about one head's distance between the head and the ''bottom' of the chest on a man and only just above it for a woman due to the breasts, in this piece her head is about one head's length from the clavicle area. Considering the composition there isn't much to look at besides the character itself, a good portion of the picture is mostly superfluous.

I think it would be wise to consider consolidating your painting practice with some more line drawing so you can get more practice in with less time investment.

Look at 80's and 90's anime, that era produced some of the more "realistic" looking animated characters. Ghost in the Shell etc.. I'm getting the impression from your work that you're still struggling with fundamental artistic problems though like most of us, you should consider approaching more formal drawing to supplement any investigation into "style" that you do. It doesn't matter what your style is. If you don't know anatomy, understand proportion and so on you're gonna have a bad time.

>>2460

Starting with the leftmost image:

The shoulder blades are actually pretty much the topmost portion of the shoulders themselves (besides the trapezius muscles that extend down from the neck and feed into the deltoids). The arms you've drawn in that image, the stage-right one in particular, look like empty tubes of meat just dangling. Gotta study anatomy a little more man.

STREET SHARKS

I like it, pose is a little awkward though and there's some other related problems.

The problem that stands out most to me is the size discrepancy between his two feet. I feel like you tried to create the suggestion of his foot being farther back by shading in his stage-left leg but the illusion of depth is muddled by the fact that his little ankle dorsal fins are the same size on either side, and his heel and toes of both feet are nearly parallel with each other in spite of the big size difference.

You've drawn the clavicle and sternomastoid as a single form; that ain't right, brah! Also you definitely need work on your rendering. It looks like you're shading with black/using the burn tool and while that's a pretty utilitarian approach to making "one part darker than the other" it's not really right if that makes sense. The body itself looks pretty flat. If you find yourself drawing "busts" and portraits of characters exclusively it'd probably be a good idea to invest more time into drawing the figure as a whole.

Don't give up fampai; if you're trying to go for a 1 x 1 definitely take your time. I can see that the eye you've painted looks to be closed slightly versus the reference. The bottom left corner is a bit higher, the right very slightly lower among other problems I'm sure you'll be able to see in retrospect. Consider painting on a second layer so you can copy your painting in progress and fit it over the reference as best as you can so you can see where you need to make adjustments. Don't get discouraged my nigga.

That's actually pretty damn cool dude.

However there's something about how the blue woman has crossed her arms that seems off.

Things I think that are throwing it off:

- arms are too low

- looks like she doesn't have any bones in her hands and her wrists are simply flopping over

- foreshortening need to be done better

Can I ask what it's for?

Seems pretty important if you've signed it.

You…sort of fixed the clavicle area; it looks marginally better overall, but herein lies the problem with trying to render/paint before you have a strong grasp of drawing, anatomy and so on. In the time it takes you to tweak the rendering on this or any similar piece you could be get a lot of drawings done which will improve all of your work overall.

Fair enough. To be honest this is my first time drawing in this kinda 'style'.

I saw some of the drawings 'Sakimichan' done; I think she's called that; and I kinda got inspired.

I'll try a new character, I actually really enjoyed working on the piece.

Think my main problem is that I need to stick to one bloody style.

I had no idea before I'd started this piece, but after checking into it it seems it'd been exactly a year since I first drew and finished that guy the other day.

I rarely draw anything to completion (a bad habit) let alone the same general thing over again; it's nice to be able to see what progress might have been made when you've seldom allowed yourself the opportunity.

Still have a long way to go, though; the drawing may be a little more competent but someone remarked that the new piece is actually a bit stiff compared to the old one and I tend to agree.

It's a perspective thing. You're right to question what you've drawn there but it's hard to describe how to fix it for me; I think you want those angles to point less "laterally" and more "vertically", allowing the front plane of that little lip to cover a good deal of the portion of it that's receding into the background.

Looking good fambalaya,

One thing to consider; when you're showing a crease or line of some sort on any kind of form-fitting clothing on a character like you have towards the knees there, you might want to draw it in such a way that implies that this crease is traveling over a solid form (in this case the character's body) by adding a sort of slope to it depending on the angle of both the smaller form and the mass to which it's attached. It's a very subtle thing but I think it's something that ought to be kept in mind because it's a pretty universal concept. Keep up the good work though bruh.

The mountains look okay, just make sure to punch the contrasting values harder. Darker darks and lighter lights to supplement what you've done so far.

The ship looks pretty silly my man; while many ships do get a little narrower at the base a lot of it gets submerged due to the weight of the ship so that narrowing usually appears much less severe.

Tone it down with the painting; spend about 80% of your time with drawing concepts such as perspective, form, construction (Andrew Loomis' book Fun With a Pencil is a good start) and maybe 20% playing around with color and custom brushes because it's going to slow you down at this point.

Arm is way too long, bud. if your rest your arm at your sides you'll find that your elbow should end up being somewhere between the base of your sternum and your navel, pretty much where the visible portion of the ribcage ends (the "tenth rib"). Her head is a little small as well. As far as your stylistic decisions I would say the best way to kind of figure that out is look at artists you like and try and "reverse engineer" what they'd done. ctrlpaint.com is a great resource for how to use photoshop in particular (though there is overlap with other software) in order to help you know how you might go about doing that as effectively as possible.

Mind the "tangents". You have a lot of lines leading into each other, especially the hand. the bottom of the pelvis should be just a bit lower as well. Remember the 4 heads rule; it can be broken but if it's too close without exaggeration elsewhere it can cause a kind of uncanny valley effect.

He's attempting foreshortening; not doing a great job, construction and foreshortening study recommended

>Why are the legs a little bit symmetrical and less free?

I think you're trying to say that the pose or gesture is too stiff

Try and stick with what you know when critiquing rather than just dogging on it, the figure has problems but saying things like "why is x lined and curved" is just going to make you have to spend more time explaining yourself later.

You'll learn to articulate this sort of thing as you continue your own studies as well so keep workin'.

Nice trips

The first pic you did a reasonable job of capturing a likeness from the neck down; her face is a little small relatively speaking because you gave her a little more hair and a little less forehead. Mind the angles on her stage left elbow; see how it almost comes to a 90 degree vertical angle rather than jutting out like in your picture.

The others are just cute cartoons but I think you made an anatomical mistake on the purple female because it appears that there's some kind of projection originating from the mons pubis area

I don't think that's right, if you'll notice her head is ever so slightly tilted to the left.

I think the issue is her iris' and pupil's.

She's slightly cock-eyed (the right one needs moved to the right a bit) and the pupils are looking upwards, yet her iris's aren't.

I'm pretty much parroting what I've heard and can't even do it but you need to be aware that objects interact pushing each other away, kind of like what I tried to show in the pic. So, naturally, if you hug someone, depending on the force, both your arm and their body or clothes will get deformed. I'd suggest looking at real-life pictures and trying to copy them to better understand it.

>>2949

I get what you are trying to do, but you are forgetting about how light works, I'd recommend watching Sycra's videos, they really helped me understand this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0q-LZVFZuGE

By the way, whenever you draw on paper and take pictures of it, save the pic as jpg or jpeg. png is a lossless format, so the size gets huge for real life pictures, if you are drawing digitally it's fine though.

Tried drawing a witch. It was supposed to be like the reference, but with the hands inside the cape I can't draw hands, but this time I actually wanted them not to show. Any errors other than the lack of shadowing on the clothes and the cape just going straight down where she's supposed to be supporting her body against a wall?

Also, a redline would be appreciated.

Gotta work those fundamentals, brah. Shitty redline, but you get the gist.

>She's not balanced on anything

>Possibly impossible pose depending on if ass on anything or supporting self off ass

>Torso Straight as a board

>Head too small or torso too tall

>Rear shoulder higher which is not right perspective wise if hand are on the same level

Try to make "construction lines" first; get the angles and placement of the body parts. Measure various parts as well, like with your pencil. Proper proportions necessary, etc.

Have you tried doing any studies yet, m8?

She was supposed to be sitting against something like the pic but I didn't draw the background properly after I saw how the cape was fucked up.

It was supposed to be the same pose in the same situation but with clothes and a cape over her arms.

Did I fuck up the pose or would it be right if I had drawn the background properly? Also, how would the cape curve had the hands been the same as the reference?

Thanks btw.

Is it appealing? Yes. The style looks extremely identical to a lot of young artists, so the fact that it is an appealing drawing style is probably why so many choose it.

For someone who's rusty or has a loose fundamental grasp i'd consider finding ways to stop being rusty before you put any thought into style. Style is just icing on the art cake, it should be an afterthought.

Not bad imo. Take my comments with a grain of salt because I'm not very good but I did notice a few things.

You can't see the stage right side of the neck; I think it should connect with the shoulder more visibly like the other side does. Also something about the front part of the neck is bugging me but idk what.

The it looks to me like the nose is pointing to the left while the face is pointing straight at the viewer. The stage left nostril also looks different from the right one.

Not a fan of the animu style so I'm not really sure what's considered "right" or "wrong" with the rest of the face, but it looks OK to me.

As for the rest of it: that arm is a skinny box. Make it a little more curved, add a trace of muscular definition.

The top part of the clothing seems to be made of a really thick fabric by the way you can see the edge of it when it goes over the arm, but the way the cross in the middle is placed makes it look thin in that part. Put the cross a little higher (you'll probably have to tweak the nearby area a bit too)

When the clothing separates towards the bottom it spreads too far apart and it doesn't seem to follow the curve of the body.

I think that's pretty much it. Most of this is small stuff so don't take the wall of text too hard. Overall, it's a pretty good drawing. I really envy your nice clean linework, can you teach my your ways?

I like to just have a giant canvas to randomly do whatever I feel like practising. As you can see its just sketches and value at the moment. Is there any big flaw I should specifically work on or should I just continue grinding the fuck out of everything as I am now?

Also everytime I try and do inking/line-work by hand it looks like dogshit, googling around people seem to suggest bigger brush sizes and canvases how valid is this advice? Would appreciate any other pointers in this regard.

So you can doodle all you want but don't conflate that with studying and learning. You are not going to learn about anatomy, gesture, perspective, form and so on by just doodling. Now drawing out of your imagination does help you practice what you already know but you aren't gaining any new information by doing so.

Try going out and drawing from life. I bet you'll learn a lot more by doing so.

How in the fuck do I blend it all together?

What I mean is, the one on the right has the mountain looking like part of the background with the clouds ect.

Whereas mine, stands out like sore thumb.

Is there a technique I'm missing or something?

I think the thing to consider in that post is "or should I just continue grinding the fuck out of everything as I am now", implying that this is the core of their learning. If the core of your learning is not studying/drawing from life/photo, theres something that needs to be addressed. Experimentation is what you do with what you have, studying is how you gain more. You can also experiment through studying, giving you something to relate your experimentation to and giving you a foundation to work from. Let's say you want to experiment with keying a drawing. If you do so from your imagination, you need to provide a mental image of the proper key, but if you work from life, you can focus on keying and finding a way to most efficiently and accurately represent the proper key of values.

The edges of the mountain are almost indistinguishable from the clouds with the one on the right.

Also because it's morning in the one on the right, the entire thing is covered in magenta light coming at a low angle close to the horizon. Where as I think your one is more clearly early afternoon, or is at least later.

If I was doing this I'd try to lower the contrast on the mountain from the background and have it all appear more faded in general.

Of course I'm only going off what I learned from Bob Ross, so grain of salt.

Apologies if you saw me posting this already, I'm just really excited because I didn't realize I could draw like this and all it took as a small push.

The first one was something I did by chance when I realized there was a reference image option on Krita.

Pretty much everything.

Read "Keys to Drawing" and "Fun With a Pencil", or something like that. You need to be at some base level of understanding of formal concepts for criticism to be at all valuable to you. Hold on to this picture, if you put in some work you'll be able to vastly improve this image in a short period of time.

Anon, you are my clone, lost twin, doppelganger or whatever.

I was hoping to find someone trying out visual art that I could relate to, but I don't know such people IRL and Internet was not much better. I've been trying whiteboard rooms from time to time, but everyone was either several levels above me or just into dicks and swastikas, and I couldn't relate to most people there anyway. I'm trying to practice on my own but I'm easily demotivated, being around people related to my interests fuels me a bit, but I'd feel uncomfortable in a whole group of them.

You may be a godsend for me, Anon. Your skill level looks similar, and I would even say that it is better than mine. It will probably take me ages to find another person like you. We should huddle in a corner together and empathize about just how much we suck, then see if we could potentially relate to and help each other out.

If you are still there, please consider leaving me a way of contact, IM like Tox, mail or anything. If you're not into it, then at least I'd like to see more of your stuff.

Well you could read some Loomis

Your suffering from something every art student goes though and are drawing an idea of what you see, instead of what you see.

Take for example the jawline of the skull. You've mad it a collection of straight lines when in reality it's more like a series of curves.

Or the shape of that nose port there which is more like a deformed circle than the triangle you've made.

In all seriousness you should probably buckle down on construction and think of objects as collections of 3d shapes. When you ask your self "Why doesn't this look right?" 99% of the time it's because you need to work on the basics.

Hammering out solid construction and perspective NOW is the best way to improve.

This is like the fourth time I've typed this out.

I don't want to paint an inaccurate picture, but I basically have two styles right now. The first being what you're quoting, and the second being when I'm trying to invent figures and there's no angularizing or harsh perspective warping going on, as seen in this WIP.

You and the other guy have already basically said what I would in a more roundabout way, "exaggerate the poses and practice poses"

As for the mindset, that style is basically an amalgamation of all the stuff I like. There's a healthy mix of Imaishi, Graffiti, and miscellaneous other shit like even Sonic of all things, that influenced what I like. I guess one important thing in all of it is that sometimes you don't need to be "realistic" to be realistic. Someone who tries to get every minute detail right without focusing on the overall figure will always produce less appealing art than someone with less overall knowledge, but a stronger sense of gesture, weight, and balance.

If anything doesn't make sense just tell me. I'm tired and really fried so getting all these thoughts organized was a bit of a struggle and they might not be clear.

Your stuff looks like some stuff from my old sketch books.

I'd suggest you buy something like newsprint(It's cheap and good for practice) and practice Draughtsmanship.

Do some of the exercise below and just draw straight lines to build up your technique every day.

After you do this for awhile, read Fun With Pencil and do ALL the exercises in addition to whatever you feel you need to do to master the content.

The hardest part is putting the hours in. Challenge yourself everyday to do more and improve.

If you want art friends then work at your art every day no matter how discouraged you get and encourage others to do the same. Everybody started at your level, Gustav Dore, Leonardo Da Vinci, and Zdzisław Beksiński. The difference between you and them is about 10,000 hours.

Don't rely too much on anatomy and other restrictions and try draw with more style and exaggeration like the other guy said, I have a strong hunch that your poses are stiff because your arms and mind are too stiff when you draw. You gotta loosen up physically and mentally and start drawing with more passion, freedom and without a care in the world.

I would also recommend you to find a photograph of someone in a really relaxed, fluid pose and copy it. Drawing a person who looks really chill or even almost melting in a chair would be the opposite of drawing stiff statues.

No reason in particular; I just like to hear when artists are doing their own projects and making their own way. I'm working on something myself. I still have a lot of work to do as far as learning how to draw goes but I have a good conception of what I want to do. Good luck with yours, my man.

>So if you had to draw for 2 hours each day, every day, it will take you 13 FUCKING YEARS to reach master level.

I think it's important for us amateurs to realize that pro artists are working for 8 hours a day minimum and may have been doing close to that since before they became pros and more or less "plateaued". There are 6 good, solid hours between 8pm and 2pm and they're a great time to devote solely to the craft if your day is taken up by other responsibilities.

I think that's the key to be honest, then again it's not only the time that counts but also how you spend that time cause someone could spend thousands of hours practicing the wrong thing or mindlessly doing an exercise and get no where like our good old friend koby http://kodyboy555.deviantart.com/

Thanks, dude.

I mean I still feel as though I'm in the same boat as you regarding this, but if I wait til I'm "good enough" when my art is already better than some really popular webcomics, I should just start it now. It's not like I can't keep practicing whilst doing so either.

One thing I've learned lately is that it's easy to go for more than two hours if you get yourself into the rhythm, but starting that flow is the hardest part.

Even right now, I'm basically sitting on diddly squat for page two here after page one took so much out of me, but I'm gonna have to work on it and my practice regardless.

I'd suggest doing your own research on this because what you can learn is very valuable. I know a lot of people that would learn twice as much if the studied half as much as they are and spent a little more time just thinking about art and planning their studies.

Looking pretty swell, anatomy is mostly correct. Might I suggest raising the arms a bit more? Unless he's fighting something shorter than him, then it looks better if he's going for a head punch instead of some kind of body shot.

Something I noticed today.

In relation to clean lines vs bad lines, I'm thinking the most important thing is clarity as opposed to how clean and continuous the line itself is. I'm also fucking terrible at inking because of my unsteady hands, but in general I think the sketchiness was important to this drawing and removing it removed a part of the drawing itself.

To avoid making excuses for this, I also went over the borders of the parts in a third one.

You should remember that you're not exactly done after just inking. Your third (first) image has highlights and suggestions, your inked image doesn't have anything. Adding more to the inked version would make it better.

pretty cool. I think the violet clouds can be reduced in saturation a little, since it seems to compete with the yellow ones too much. Also by making the clouds more brighter and saturated than the Planet, the Planet isn't as center of attention.

The head may be a bit too large, perhaps define a neck to attach it to? The pose isn't bad but I suggest you learn more about anatomy in terms of muscle shapes too. Other than that, it isn't too bad of a silhouette.

Nice work on shaping the limbs anon. The ab region does look weird, if anything, bloated because the imaginary middle line in which the abs are situated around symmetrically is skewed too diagonally to the right. It needs to point inwards more.

I'd say the picture looks off because there's no weight or perspective to the figure.

That's pretty good though. Especially if you're not lying, in which case that's pretty impressive if you've only done so few.

If you're after specific nitpicks to better gauge your work, while the entire thing remains cohesive amidst the differing shapes, the eyes are the biggest point of divergence. They're pretty much a completely different person's eyes. Note how sunken in and beady the guy's eyes are and compare it to yours. Also the beard doesn't really line up, where it's pretty symmetrical on him too.

But again, you're doing that thing that I see people overlook, and making sure the entire picture you're drawing looks cohesive within the canvas, instead of just trying to photo copy the face, so I'd say you're on the right track and it's just a matter of time and practice.

Just started learning.

I just been doing lines and circles mostly. Then I tried to copy a Pepe and ran out of space, then I decided to copy this drawing from Senran Kagura cover, but just the body because it's the best bit tbh and couldn't be asked to do the rest of it and I also drew an apple from a book I did the first chapter of called 'You can draw in 30 days' by Mark Kistler. I did more than this, but the rest is just lines and circles.

Waay too stiff, form/pose doesn't work, the left arm doesn't attach. Try doing the pose yourself, take pictures, does It feel comfortable, look up reference.
