/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

>>1801321
Do you mean like this?

>>1801328
Much better, since we saw her right eye that signified a greater turn, which was too extreme. Take the pose, try out the turn for yourself and you will see that you can only turn so far.

>>1801328
Notice how in the reference picture, the head is almost at profile. Draw the vertical middle line of the face in the photo and then in your drawing and try to work from there.

>>1801331
>>1801332
Excelent. Thanks for your help, anon.

How long until someone on /ic/ learns to draw like an authentic animu artist?

This is difficult, any tips on drawing/ understanding huge size differences?

>>1801339
Can't help you with that, but take this.

>>1801342
Not what he is talking about.
>>1801336
never

>>1801336
i hope i'm getting closer :_;
though my actual goal is manga

>>1801345
Nice reading comprehension, faglord.

>>1801349
>huge size differences

can mean anything, my dick size, my ear size, the size of your mom's ass, etc. I really didn't want to leave off my comma retard after "talking about" to sound less of a prick and now I learned my lesson. Never again be nice.

>>1801356
Go to sleep, son.

>>1801356
The guy was helping him with the faces he drew. Are you too retarded to see that?

>>1801136

draw thread shitters don't care about getting better they just want to put shit on /ic/ because it's barely marginally better than mspaint shit from /i/

alt style threads are people that don't want to go to other thread with people screaming LOOMIS! FROM LIFE! etc. because they know they exaggerated anatomies don't belong in those threads

>>1801360

Yeah but he didn't ask for help with that. As if posting a page from Hampton will help him like he doesn't know that book exists already instead of, you know, drawing over the image.

>>1801368
Its help regardless, and it makes complete sense considering the guy's faces were wonky as fuck. Not everyone has time for a redline and its better than being told "its shit", which is what /ic/ generally dishes out. Stop sperging out over it.

>>1801368
What can I do? Hampton is a better teacher than me.

>>1801348
no one cares what your goal is. no one cares how close you are getting.
not your personal blog.

>>1801368


>>1801339 here, I thought to say something like "could you please give me some kind of critique instead of just throwing a picture at me with no context" to>>1801342 but I didn't because I don't need to be spoonfed. I knew what he was trying to say, granted it wasn't polite or intelligent, but when do you get either of those things on 4chan.

>>1801371

My faces are wonky? Explain.

>>1801379
>My faces are wonky? Explain.

Not him, but it is out of proportion.

>>1801383
Not same anon, but this will probably help a bit.

>>1801386
Not the same guy, but it always helps to mirror the image to spot mistakes.

>>1801393
Not him but this should do it.

>>1801383
does it look better

>>1801396

I keep doing loomis method and I am surely missing something.

I draw an image, scan it, lay it over the original that I used as reference. most times what I drew is too wide.

So the brow is about the distance from the chin to the brow (on an adult-teen woman)?

How do you find this at the 3/4s view because I am basically having to measure and still getting it wrong. Thanks.

>>1801396

>>1801407
A fresh perspective should always be helpful

>>1801406
>How do you find this at the 3/4s view because I am basically having to measure and still getting it wrong. Thanks.
Learn how to draw boxes in perspective, and how to divide a side of a box into the right amount of subunits you need. The measurements for the front view of the head can be drawn onto the front, then the head is carved out of the box.

Basically, try practicing different ways to start a head construction, study a lot of heads from real life and photos, and learn your perspective. If you're having difficulty keeping proportions when rotating complex forms, then practice on basic forms until you're proficient.

>>1801424
Ok yeah. I am drawing from real life, I can normally nail a regular profile but I tried to do Anne Frank the other day and found it to be really hard. I am on day two and just barely getting it right. Thanks, that box perspective was my next step.

WIP expanding on the Spike piece I inked up last week. I'm planning on bluelining each character and inking them separately too so I can further mess around with the composition if need be. And maybe sell the pieces off later. :P

How is the pose?

>>1801451
maybe it's just personal preference but edward looks too much like a girl. she was very androgynous in the show

make her face less round

oekaki doodlin boredom bustin'

>>1801493

>>1801466
Added some pose. I'm really amazed at how I can draw these poses when I'm horny.

>>1801496
Oops, forgot image.

>>1801480
she looks just as andro in that pic as she does in yours

>>1801494
heh

>>1801131
thanks, will also work up the ribcage, as many did suggest

>>1801509
>she looks just as andro in that pic as she does in yours

i disagree. in the original anime she has a much more angular face, which is typical for men. thus giving her a slightly more androgynous look.

it's a little but essential difference.

>>1801509
also(assuming you are the guy who drew the bebop pic): you made her face look fat

>>1801164
>Because of the smooth surfaces? Too homogenous? Too flat?
You are filling out outlines, not drawing/painting/stylizing materials.

Other thing - the value is over the top and the outlines are badly incorporated.

>>1801376
rude.
you sound bitter

>>1801376
i do.

>>1801324
These always looks creepier before they are finished.

>>1801451
You could make Jet's head smaller so he could appear to be bigger. He looks thin right now.

>>1801573
Stopping for tonight.

Working on expressions tonight.

Hey guys, first time on /ic/.
I was looking through the threads and thought that this was a good thread for this so, I've been doing a webcomic for a while and the art sucks ass, so if you have any tips for me on how to improve my art, go right ahead.
Yes I did look at the sticky, and I will get to reading Loomis soon. I just want to know if you guys have any other tips.
Also, you dont have to pay attention to the writing, just the art.

>>1801648
Dandy's chin is not square enough.

>>1801650
break the problems you see in this page and work a lot on them one by one.

>>1801650
Ive seen your shit some time back, and aside from you lying about you posting the first time on /ic/, Ive gotta warn you brah.

You´re dangerously close to walking the chimneyspeak road..
You dont want to walk the chimneyspeak road.

>>1801650

You probably need a coherent objective, right? I'll try giving you some tasks.

I don't want to overhelm you with too many.

For composition. Try copying a few panels from your favorite comic artists, then copy a single panel from one of the "most hard"/technically experienced comic artist (e.g. Kentaro Miura). You don't have to render it, divide the composition and replace the objects of focus with shapes.

If you're copying loomis, copy a single figure a few extra times in order for it to sink in.

Update:

Toned down the eyelashes on Ed. Maybe I'm just used to seeing Ed in doujinshi so I think she's really a she.

Jet's shoulder widened and body stretched a little to give some more bulk.

>>1801555
Yes, it's true that "angular" can mean more male for some characters. But to me, what makes a male more male is the wideness of the chin. Pointy chins=girls and youth. I did change it to satisfy Anon, but I do like rounder fleshy faces to give them some volume.

Good enough to go for me, just have to wait for the pizza place to open so I can grab a slice while picking up an ink cartridge.

Additional, Hentai Faye.

>>1801497
Nice gestures, good proportions. You could start pushing the space more, different angles.

>>1801739
do i recall that you said you have a cintiq?

>>1801760
I do have a Cintiq 21UX, but I hardly used it anymore since I got a Surface Pro 2. Con for the SP2 is that the screen is only 10.5", but the pixel density is better than the much larger Cintiq. When I went back to working on the Cintiq I was kind of annoyed that I could see pixels.

>>1801700
Ok, when have I ever posted here because I really don't remember.

Also, what's chimney speak?
>>1801682
Yeah, but that's the problem, I dont know what my problems are and I was hoping I could get someone to spot them
>>1801720
My goal is for my art to at least become boxer hockey tier, but anyways, I'll try that.

>>1801778
interesting, i must admit i had assumed automatically that it sucked cock like windows 8.


and um, here's anime for thread. computers being a bit of a fuck so it's a bit of a mess.

Can someone crit this really hard. I'm pretty sure I'm shitting up the composition badly.

>>1801815
What? The SP2? I've had 2 tablet PCs prior to the SP2 and this blows them away hands down. We're getting to the point where we don't have to chose between having a powerful tablet or long battery life.

The SP2 is a fairly good compromise where it can run Manga Studio with 10+ layers, and has a running time of roughly 6 hours. I don't have keep staring at the battery indicator as I did on my first tablet.

Manga Studio/CSP is also Touch Friendly. With the SP2 and its great Palm Rejection drivers, it's a dream to work on, using touch to pinch and zoom/rotate your canvas. For some reason, my previous tablets can't do this, even though all are the same Wacom technology and Manga Studio software. I end up making marks with my fingers.

Windows 8 is also much better than Windows 7 for Tablets. I still run W7 on my studio PC where my Cintiq is hooked up to. There's no reason to really upgrade on a desktop PC. But W8 has an easier On Screen Keyboard and other Touch friendly menus that make it shine on tablets. I treat the Tile interface just like an expanded Start/Shortcut menu. Leaves the Desktop fairly uncluttered.

The SP3 surpasses the hardware of the SP2 in screen resolution/size, more adjustable kickstand, lighter weight. But it has the one big caveat is that they jumped from Wacom to N-Trig, a company that needs to improve their drivers to really get the artists to jump on board.

Cute pic.

Does this look like a kid clinging to a planet? What can I do to improve the pose?

I think it looks better without the right arm, but it might feel too 2D(?).

>>1801961
Yes, it's cute. U like kids in uranus?
Study anatomy though, that foot looks awful.

>>1802014
It's better with the arm

>>1801739
>dat hashing
>dat style
wait a minute.
Was it you who drew Rouge from X-men getting fucked like that?

I'm learning to draw again after a long period of years not doing so. Coming back to it I find I've gotten worse than before I quit. I went to the sticky and I got all of the Loomis books.

I find myself becoming bored with the content, unable to apply the content towards a manga style. I'm aware I have to learn human/cartoon anatomy first. I'm unsure what order I should be doing these books. Or how to transition once I've finished.

>>1801730
>But to me, what makes a male more male is the wideness of the chin

yeah that's also important, maybe even more than an angular face. anyway thanks for listening to my advice concerning edward. i think she looks better now. also like what you did with the guy who has the robot arm(forgot his name).

>>1802031
Drawing isn't a set dichotomies. What the Loomis books are trying to impart onto you is the fundamentals of drawing which can be boiled down to Gesture, form and perspective. Loomis isn't the only way to go but he will tell you everything you need to know when it comes to drawing and how to apply the fundamentals.

It's gonna take a very long time until you can apply what you learn effectively to what you want to wind up doing and all the notions you had when you first started are gonna seem silly but if it's what you really wanna do you'll stick it out and you'll stick with it.

>>1802041

Jet Black

>>1802031
don't worry, you won't un-learn anything. it's kinda like riding a bike. if you take up the habit again, and draw without pauses(!), after a few days/weeks you will be able to draw at your peak again, wherever that is.
it's happened to me many times.
the point is to truly get back into the habit again. you have to draw several hour long sessions.

>>1802057
exactly

Can I get a critique please?

>>1802020
I don't recall drawing Rogue in a compromising position. Interested though, post it if you got it.

>>1802073
ahaaja

haha
hahahahahahahahahaha

>>1802087
please, the last time I posted an image you guys laughed at it too. can I please get a real critique. pls don't just make fun.

>>1802073
The eyes are... weird?
It looks like the person has missing teeth. Don't draw each individual tooth, maybe?
Study actual people.

>>1802101
he laughs at you because you can't be serious.
what the fuck is up with those teeth. it looks like utter shit

>>1802101
It looks like an alien with downs. It's not good. At all.

There's no fixing it, instead of getting hung up go back and draw some more.

>>1802108
>>1802106
fuck both of you.

>>1802073
It's Anne Frank right?

>>1802108
ayyy lmao

>>1802118
you think teeth gap make for a good smile?
what are you even thinking?

>>1802119
the real ann frank

>>1802128
no how did you draw that conclusion? I didn't want it to be good just accurate.

>>1802130
but you are stylizing.
rather than being accurate, you have to make sure your drawing gives off the right impression.

she looks completely and utterly retarded. you need to judge your own drawings better

>>1802132
she always looks retarded in drawings. that's her mysterious gift (of being ugly irl)

>>1801961

you could get a better grasp if you rotate the drawing 90 degree so the kid lies on the ball/planet.

>>1802141

>>1802073
the right eye from the viewer is too big, you didn't close it properly towards the inside. Also, the eyebrow on the same side isn't done properly.

>>1802144

>>1802141
no, maybe you need to learn how to draw. she doesn't actually look that retarded. it's you that drew her that way.

>>1802152
etc.

>>1802159

Don't worry anon I agree with you. Never make a filthy juden look beautiful

Is this acceptable neck placement?

>>1802159
look, there is a simple point i can make. the photos look less retarded than these drawings, and all of these drawings look less retarded than the drawing you posted initially.

"she just looks that way" is something noobs say to excuse their shitty drawings.

>>1802169
it's ok.
but aside from that. are you aware of how that expression looks like? her eyes are wide open and stare into the distance.

First try and digital art, can someone tell me what im doing wrong, and weather or not I should finish it

>>1802178
Thanks a lot. And yeah, I'm aware of the expression.

chhchchchchchhcille la chchchchchille

>>1802176
i didn't post the initial drawing, i just thought it was funny that there's so many retarded drawings of anne frank around. even in this one she looks like a mongoloid

>>1802184
11/10

>>1802181
Her torso and left arm look huge. The hair is pretty inconsistent and at some points it looks like the overlapping is reversed, like in the red circle. I also thing the shading should better express the angle of the head. I hope this helps.

>>1802195
thanks, don't really have to means to fix the head, but I can fix the hair. Sometimes you don't even notice shit like that until someone else looks at it.

>>1802181
You have huge body problems. If you take a look at original art form the anime you should find a way to get rid of it.

>>1802208
Care to elaborate on that? Would help me a lot.

>>1802211
look at original art and find out the proportions.

>>1802136

>>1802181
If you're planning to do half of the body then finish it first, then post it here again.

So far i don't have anything to it outside the torso part, Her ribcage is for me too big and the placement of the clavicle is too far from what it should be.

use reference from real life to plan exactly your figure.

Anne Frank general

>>1802236
k

Left or right?

>>1802132
If I could judge my own drawings accurately I wouldn't be coming here right?

>>1802261
left i guess, they both sort of look like they're humping it

>>1802252
her head resembles a lima bean

>>1802261
Other than the left foot, I can't tell the difference. I pick left, just for the foot.

>>1802284
that's true to life, they used to call her "anne frank n' beans'

>>1802269
Develop a critical eye and be your own toughest critic. Look at the reference and your works and be honest, does it look *anything* like what I intended? Are the eyes spaced properly? Are they symmetrical? Are the features too small or too big? Does it not look retarded?

Be honest with yourself, think like a professional.

>>1802269
...you should still be able to judge at least the impression they make to an extent. ESPECIALLY if you are cartooning/stylizing.

you people need to think about the bigger picture. you only focused on somewhat recreating the features. but you werent paying attention to how your drawing actually looks.
before you said you weren't trying to make it look good, but honeestly that's the same as not caring about what you draw at all.

>>1802261
this is the same type of problem. and i think i told you before: you are too focused on anatomy.
the problem with this is that you'll lose sight of what your drawing looks like.
if your priority is "anatomy" then you may get some anatomical detail right, but that doesn't mean that is what would help your drawings.

for example, a lot of your marks are obviously anatomical details, but does it really fit? is that the shoulder, the back, the arm, the body, the ass, the leg of a child? i don't think so.
being too conscious of anatomy will only make you get worse at it. be more flexible in your thinking

>>1802302
pretty sure that ain't kosher

>>1802304
I've been keeping what you said to me in mind, and I plan on removing a lot of the "anatomical details" from the drawing. I mostly keep them there as landmarks.

Anime Frank when?

>>1802304
>you weren't trying to make it look good
I meant I wasn't trying for style or beauty. I was trying to make it look real. Its not like my aim is shit, because if it was then I wouldn't be here trying to improve.

>>1802356
The time spent defending your drawing could've been spent making another. Let it go and move on, anon. It's not worth getting worked up over.

Another try. Should I just give up and move on?

Can somebody help me out with this?

The blue part is mostly flat unless you're a fat fuck, and is where the stomach is at, right?

And the green part is a set of muscles that goes over the iliac spine and looks weird as fuck (pic 3) on ripped people?

>>1802360
loll I am not defending it, I know its shit. No one is getting worked up.

>>1802391
>>1802383
>>1802369

and there isn't that huge of a dfference anatomically, just different form and proportion.

if i could say anything about this drawing it's that, since you obviously have both photoshop and a tablet, you would be much better off painting actual figure studies than drawing these. not only would you gain more from it, but the product of your time spent would be much more pleasing to look at.

>>1802698

>>1803153

Usually these books are completely TERRIBLE and I would suggest against you buying any of them.

The one I have is a Japanese "How to Draw Anime" book (translated into Chinese). The title sounds misleading as fuck but it actually concentrates mostly on teaching anatomy rather than whatever the fuck Christopher Hart does. I've never found another "how to draw" book like this though so I wouldn't suggest you go and buy any.

Am I gittin gud

>>1803153
Sketching manga volume 1-5 is written by an actual nip and is fully translated to English. It actually goes pretty in depth when it comes to the basics and is probably the best couple of books in that respect. Just avoid anything that's Mark Criley or Chris Hart.

>>1803206
Seems to be good book, can you give name of it?
Also why this threads don't change resources on the OP-post? I think it would be better if somebody collect all "how to draw anime" books and upload somewhere and paste link here.

>>1803222

go draw from real life tho

Hips are right on the edge of being too small even for a stylization. Try to keep them at least shoulder width

Go back your other background. That looked like it could be more interesting.

hi /ic/, I just started using a tablet/digital painting, thought I'd show a character design. Anyone know of some good blending brushes?

>>1802838
Thanks for the tips - the panel is a 24 well plate. I was planning in filling them with more evil cells.

Forgot about the ssj halo - I'll try to add it without making the space too cluttered

I have to vector it tonight so I might come back for more advice

how do I get gud

>>1803762
Watch a lot of animu without drawing. Read the sticky, but never draw anything. The less you draw the better you will get.

suggestions?

>>1803785
Don't forget to regularly shitpost. Nothin makes your art better than shitting on someone else.

I can't tell, are the eyes too close together?

huh, I see now, that her neck and jaw are all wrong

>>1803845
Hands too small, upper arm too short.

>>1803619
Shut the hell up and draw.

>>1803840
That nose needs some fixing but, I really like the pose and overall idea.

>>1801850
Get rid of the effect and tune down the contrast on the cloaks. Also, try to fool around with the comp.

upper body doesn't match lower body. l2photobash properly.

>>1803840
determine light source before you do any rendering. you have a boob illuminated where it should be in shadow.
there are also anatomical mistakes, like the thumb is overlapping where it should be more visible (or you drew fingers on the wrong plane), one iris is twice bigger/smaller than the other. misplaced mouth, spine erect when it should be bending, foot closer to us needs to be bigger, no bellybutton.

The foreshortening is off, unless she's getting eaten out by a midget.

And the woman in front looks like she forgot to pay her mortgage.

>>1803874
Eh, the arm was supposed to be foreshortened. How do I make that more apparent?

>>1804042
looks like ariel from the little mermaid now. which is awesome.

some of the hands look a little small. love the way you do joints.

sketching faces and other things
I really want to make a finished illustration but I don't know what to paint

>>1804042
the wrist/forearm on the hand holding the breast is too thin, I think

>>1802361
looks like anime face pasted onto "real/16th century European oil painting"... kinda disturbing/uncanny valley

body: picasso/10, would fap
face: michael bay/10, looks like a doll mixed with some "dark/edgy" hollywood actress, NOPE

PS - I draw like a 3rd grader

char. description NORA:
-bland caucasian female based on boring suburban ideal
-falconeer (but with Owl instead)
-lightweight canvas apron holding USELESS toolset
-holstered metallic vibrator on hip
-leather boots

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?

it's like you said MOM+DAD+FALCONEER

are you 12 year old girl?

this is NOT a judgement on the art-skill which is breddy-güd imo. not trying to be mean, just seems like one of the most forgettable 'characters' I've ever seen. Infact I've already forgotten who she was, and why am I writing this?

>>1803840
add: nipples, belly button, knee caps
fix: dat left elbow, her nose, snail drops unnecessary (unless it's a really extra-slimy snail)
???: two hair colors? are her boots part of her pants, or...?, what are those golden things on left hip?

>>1803840

>>1804266
this guy again... also Dat cameltoe, and her left hand looks backwards (maybe even her whole left arm looks twisted)

what is this for? just character sketch or is it FOR something? the 'scene' depicted slightly interests me and I'd like to see what happens next.

i need help with this one. Im clueless about the girl pose, how much of the back would be shown etc. plz help for real.

>>1804236

That's something I ask myself so much on this board. Usually I get to the end of typing up some shit and just delete it because what's the point? I applaud you for posting.

>>1804286
it's too big shrink that torso down a bit she looks freakishly long

>>1804302
i jsut dont know mane. Its one of those pose i just dont understand. Thers not much reference for it and no direct one at all.

>>1804302
>>1804286

No. The torso is not connected correctly. Remember to think 3 dimensionally, draw the parts like they are see through. Right now that back bend is happening in the middle of the rib cage

>>1804316
much better, next time type "lying on belly" in google

>>1804266
>>1804268
its just fanart
gotta read your jojo dude

something in this direction ?

maybe you're right, I redrew the arm, thanks for the remark

>>1804108
thanks

nothing wrong with a small women, but yea, will correct that

>>1804236
btw, I really like how you draw

>>1804378
thanks, much of it is influenced by 0033's lines

Looks better. Now finish it so I can fap

Not sure how cartoonish this exactly is but methinks this doesn't belong in the drawing thread since it's stylized.

It's not terribly complex but it does have to move. It's for a game I'm making.

>>1804460
>blatantly copying Journey

>>1804472
It's inspired by it obviously.

The design needs to be simple. I'm hoping to make the game world the more interesting eye candy.

Game itself has nothing to do with Journey by the by. And this is just one character in the game. The other characters will not look like this.

Just trying to give some context.

>>1804472

While it is blatantly journey, it's funny when people are like "Journey looks gorgeous, I wouldn't buy it though."

>>1804450
>>1804437
thx m8

How to I tackle this layout guys?

It should be just like loomis 3/4 face drawing right? A sphere with a slice taken off the side? Only from this angle the slice's ellipse is smaller ? Can someone point me to an artist that explains this?

>>1804476
literally though the design is borderline plagiarism, you could add something or change something else like give the character a face or give it longer legs or put a pattern on the cloak but as it stands, if you showed me that design i would immediately think journey, not your game

>>1804495
Just a concept made. Feel free to suggest what I can do with it.

I know you suggested adding a face but I'm afraid that doesn't work for this particular character. That's the one suggestion that can't be done.

Other suggestions are welcome. Just remember it has to be as simple as possible because I have to animate it which I'm completely new that..

>>1801324

Does anyone have any tips on how to design things?

I'm trying to design a cute, simplistic stylized little witch girl for a video game, and I'm having trouble.

>>1802409
learn color, lower background contrast

>>1804499

change the silhouette, give it more human attributes so the design is less similar to the character from journey

>>1804521
I'll try that again. It did not work out at all for me last time.

I'm also considering putting arms on it if I have the ability to animate it well enough. Most likely I will. That should bring it out of the Journey-fan art territory and something referencing the design.

>>1804236
You got a site?

>>1804528
if youre dead set on it being journey inspired i'd say reference the graphic design elements instead, the patterns on the robe. if you reference the armless hooded poncho aspect you're probably gonna get a lot of shit for it

>>1804460
>>1804553
I intended to keep the trim on the robe, yes.

Just have to nail another kind of sillohoute to fit the character. I'm sure I'll figure it out

Meantime, I just finished this concept for a character called The Jester to be used in the same game as the last character.

Considering giving him feet but for now I figured he can just bounce around.

I doubt I'll leave him bald but I couldn't figure out a good enough hat design for him. Any suggestions on a hat style would be swell.

>>1803082

I did a lot but I didn't do that

>>1804659
Well, it's slightly less boring.

Make a dinosaur or something different for once.

>>1804671
look at james gurney for that shit then.

Every artist has their own thing.

What did i fucking do wrong?

>>1804659
really difficult to read
if your going to go that far with the subject make the bg a little less intense

looks nice as always though

>>1804261
>>1802864
>>1803285
why are you so defensive dude, like every time some says something that isn't praise you attack them? just chill out man...

>mine always come out fucking fuzzy
I swear it's like I'm never using the right goddamn tool.

>>1804350
>read jojo
No thanks, I actually have taste.

>>1804673
This is a Critique board, which implies that he cares about improving (that, or just wanting pats on the back.)

The artist clearly shows he's able to paint the same subject very well, and he's doing nothing but doing the same thing. This is called 'staying in the comfort zone'.

>>1804686
You probably aren't. You need a harder brush.

Comments?

>>1804684
not me bro.

Maybe other people see how fucking dumb those comments were

>>1804698
but they weren't dumb? i really do believe you are him because everytime you post your work you get upset over ANYTHING that is even a little critical of you're work. I know what its like to face critcism, but getting back at people isn't the right way to deal with it.

>>1804695
>You need a harder brush.

... huh.

So I did.

Thanks!

thanks for the help dudes
I didn't end up adding a nipple even though it looks like there should be one

>>1804695
yeah thats not how critiques work. you should look that word up.

best artists in history stuck to the subjects the liked. Do you also butch whenever you see a degas? monet?
>>1804701
yeah they were pretty fucking dumb.
>>1804680
this is a valid crit

>>1804709
Why where they dumb, you never gave a reason

>>1804709
>telling somebody to try something new instead of painting the same subject over and over again
>not "valid critique"

What.

>>1804659
against the apparent general consensus, i love this stuff, and it doesn't look boring to me.

female body is the most popular theme on painting for a reason: I'd love to paint pinups all day.

>>1804713
If you love stuff like this, that's cool, but we're just trying to say that if you don't have any variety in all your art people will notice and stop caring.

can someone tell me why i like drawing madoka fanart when i'm a grown ass man

um i guess i'll post here to see what happens

>>1804696
gud....however either her right buttcheek is too flat or the left one is to fat at that angle

they don't look the same size

>>1804718
Because it's cute.

>>1804718
you suffer from arrested development + pedophilia

>>1804709
>best artists in history stuck to the subjects the liked.
That's because they can when they've pretty much 'mastered' everything. And that's from getting out of your comfort zone and painting and learning other things than making the same shit over and over again.

>>1804677
seriously is this even good? I keep getting trolled with people going YAY and others going BOOO YOU SUCK DICK.

>>1804708
mate that bracelet needs to show a ridge on the wrist, or it looks painted on

>>1804715
i wasn't the justoneart guy, just a wannabe

anyway, i respect his subject choosing: it's HIS stuff, not mine

>>1804742
Protip: people don't have an issue with the subject.

Just the fact that he isn't pushing himself to do something different, like he doesn't want to improve or anything.

>>1804729
i don't like drawing megucas bent over silly.
