Just a little reminder.

You don't need to draw realistic but you do need to know the fundamentals, i'm talking construction, perspective, values, etc..

A lot of Western manga suck so much because people try to copy the animu style without understand why they are that way, this results in flat, boring and lifeless drawings.

Hit the books, you don't like drawing realistic? Endure till you know the fundamentals. This doesn't mean you shouldn't be drawing your cute girls eating cocks, draw them but only after a study session, think of them as dessert. Bonus point: try to incorporate what you just learned into your animu, this way you can improve both styles at the same rate and please for the love of god don't fall for the "this is my style", you don't have a style if you don't know how to draw.

Sory for being kinda rude, but lately there's been a constant flow in here of drawings by people who seems to not have read the sticky or aren't trying to learn.

tl:dr Ready the sticky, learn the fundamentals collect drawings.

Not him but it is. It's easier to go from realism to animu than to go from animu to realism, drawing only animu is the reason lots of western mangas are so shit.

Drawing animu shit early on can create lots of bad habits that later will be difficult to erase plus lots of stuff used on realism that apply to /a/ can only be learned properly drawing realistic, like anatomy for instance.

>red flag

Loomis is only a red flag for people that aren't total beginners and know how to use geometric shapes to construct things. Loomis is OK for beginners, of course nowadays there are better teachers, so feel free to search.
