alright hows this, did more to this

>>3354692
different anon here, it looks much better! form seems much more harmonious now to me

>>3354702
she was more attractive than i had her painted before, which is something I try to retain in my paintings. Doesn't really matter to me if it looks exactly like the person but I have to be as attracted to the painting as I was to the model.

>>3354692
nice colour choices here brian, but your work seems to be having a correlation towards cartoons sometimes, just a feeling they give off, i think you really need to steer your ship the opposite way, look at your edges, some places you use a dark value line that just is not needed,

>>3354726
>but your work seems to be having a correlation towards cartoons sometimes
what better direction for fine arts to go in than that?

>>3354692
Light on her left thigh doesn’t make sense to me and the secondary lighting is almost the same direction from primary.

>>3354755
seemed like it was best for the composition, and the color is so nice that I'm not gonna paint over it cause it'd be impossible to mix exactly again. That color is honestly to me the most important part of this painting. If I get rid of it this whole painting will lose interest, and the focal point will be something less interesting.

learn when to stop working on a painting
it looks nice, leave it
the next one will be better anyway

>>3354402
Holy shit are you this anon?

>>3354407
this is a really big guess but, do you play roblox?

I finished this. The main difference is that I ditched some of the dutch angle as someone pointed out

>>3354870
pretty nice

is it for a game or something?

>>3353059
It's spelled "BIRB" you dumbo

>>3354870
The swords in the whitespace are a good addition, too. Do you have a portfolio somewhere?

>>3353386
Love this, one of those 'wow I wish I'd come up with that' compositions/feelings. Maybe darken her eyeballs a little (even if they're glowing, they look a little flat as is imo, and it's the first thing I was drawn to)

>>3354753
you are leaning towards kitsch with it, not fine arts.

>>3354923
Strongly disagree, the lines aren't an obnoxious stylization at all and your dislike for them is a taste thing.
In fact, wait, are you the person from earlier who was being a dick to people based on totally objective things? They were tripfagging, though...but you sound like them. Unhelpful.

How do you get such long, smooth lines?

Obviously talent but also do you zoom out for longer lines or do really quick strokes or what?

turned my study into an edgy pic

>>3355006
swore it was attached

>>3354391
I'd recommend taking pictures of real life and turning them into b&w and look at the value range happening.
Another thing you could do for a while is for every painting you make, have one main inspo painting in b&w from a really good artist and just look at the value range he has going on in his piece and more or less copy it over.
Also I suggest you start painting from life in b&w, takes longer than only analyzing a b&w photo but you learn a lot more with the addition of gaining mileage.
Over time you'll just know intuitively what values you need and where, keep at it anon.

there ought to be debris in the background

>>3354447
Excuse me for indulging, but imma vandalise it a lil bit. I really like that blend of soft shadows and hatching, reminds me of metal gear solid art, but damn me if I ever manage to replicate it.

>>3354930
this is my 3rd post in like, 3 days m8.

>>3354930
and i still maintain that he is leaning more towards kitsch with his choices.
i also did provide some critt with my opinion, btw.

Armature here, this my tenth attempt drawing.

>>3352891

I'm working on character design of a meat shield human servant of an awol alien scientist, defending his base of operation from locals. Did I manage to communicate it in the drawing? I like the contrast of the upper and lower halves but I'm not sure if it works together.

>>3355297
What's going on with its stomach? Is that an arrow sticking out of it?

Otherwise it's pretty good.

>>3355339
yeah, a couple arrows. Trying to push the idea of sturdiness, zombiefiendess and dispensabillity of the human bits.

>>3354062
>>3354237
Yeah, go for it.
I've got friends with less experience than you that got a few opportunities from it. And, to me at least, you looks like someone with a confirmed artstyle, wich is good.

>>3354375
Does a astrobear shit in his space suit?

>>3354381
I will. Thanks!

>>3354870
Awesome dude! Your angle is much better than what I came up with when I posted a couple of days ago. One more small crit:

The sword bag could use some drop shadow and ambient occlusion on the ground. It looks like it's floating a bit. Had to point this out since everything else is so perfect.

You have a blog or something? I really like this piece!

>>3353637
make it look like she's coming out from a tropical jungle

>>3354223
Was curious now that I've made a bit more progress on it if it's still too Tumblr or not.

>tfw bf showed it to his normie co-worker today who said "wow! Your gf draws good anime!"

Crits pls.

>>3355749
The linework is the best part, I'd recommend just turning this into flat colors with cel shading.

>>3355795
Work on getting cleaner lines. This is entirely chicken scratch.
After that, practice line weight and how that works. See how the lines communicate nothing about
the shape?
And also learn to have a focal point in mind. See how everything looks flat because you've treated it all the same? You need to have an attitude towards the different parts of the drawing.
And finally you should practice drapery and shading.

>>3355795
Long neck is long

>>3353470
This is really great whats your process?

WIP. Any improvements I can make so far?

my program crashed 100 times

>>3354872
Nope, just for myself.

>>3355532
Thanksthanks, though she's clinging to a cliff wall under an overhang, no ground.

beautiful stuff my man
love the flow of lines

>>3355179
nice noah cirus drawing lol

Sorry i dont had a scaner

>>3353560
Splash splash. Think I might add some cum and fecies on that and call it a day. Abstract sploshes are the best! Yay!

You know, i don't consider myself an artist. I just draw characters that i like and some others that i created, like this one in the pic. I wish i had studied music when i was young, somehow i ended up studying drawing. Anyways, any feedback on this drawing i made some weeks ago? I guess i could use more linework and anatomy knowledge.
