i seriously don't know what to do here anymore please help
books on color theory would be nice

>>2015084
What kind of advice are you looking for? It's too stylized.

>>2015122
color, and maybe examples of coloring processes that might help this? am I missing essential elements? and this is in a cool atmosphere, so anything I need to add?

>>2015133
Well I think you're playing it too safe with those colors. Try to avoid mixing brown and black for outfits and stick with 2 colors for the main pieces.
I don't know what kind of background you're going for.

not porn enough for other thread.

>>2015148

>>2015151
hmm, wasn't too far off, not sure about making to torso wider though.

>>2015153
Yeah, I mean it's very stylized so there technically isn't anything wrong with it, I'm just making the proportions a bit more realistic.

>>2015148
>more short shorts yea im gonna need your blog m8

Blatant doubleposting from the drawthread:

Any tips on keeping a stylized two/three tone shading while still "finishing" work? I seem to be permanently stuck in the coloring book lineart stage.

If I add more hard black lines it gets really ugly and artificially noisy. It also loses most of the softness.

If I add more pencil shades everywhere then it looks like I'm going for a smooth shaded look, which isn't really what I want.

>>2015355
is
>>2013710
similar to what you're going for?

Hey, if you have some insight, share.

>>2015385
>women don't have a ribcage
How can you say something's unnecessary when it's stylized?

>>2015385
>m-muh style
>muh noodle arms

>>2015770
>m-muh closed mind
>m-muh anetommey !
>muh

>>2015384
Pretty much, yes.

>>2015847
what I had done was use a medium pen, like a 0.8 for most of my lines, and then a really tiny thin lines with a 0.05 for shadows. then it was just mechanical pencil for the erst of the shading. shading over the thin lines gave me my second darkest value, and just straight up black for the very darkest (though i kinda just guessed with that)
i dont know if that helps but thats how i approach it. its good do have one of those little eraser stick things too, helps you keep clean edges on your shading when you want them

>>2015957
That's pretty much what I was already doing, although I think your hatching is much cleaner.

I'm currently doing everything in .5 roller pen, I'll try to get those nice light strokes for the shadows and work in the pencil more to get variety.

Thanks!

>>2015969
>that face

I'm worried with my current studies I'll be getting faces as ugly as these.

>>2015971
How is it ugly??

>>2015971
yea i am still figuring out the level of stylization i wanna go for
what do you think of this one?

>>2015148
im sure there are real girls whose butts are that big but do you really think it is aesthetically pleasing?

i mean who really finds kim kardashian attractive?!

>>2015991
those are some hot opinions

>>2015984
>That man face

I'm assuming you've never done any figure drawing on female drawings.

>>2015991
I hate fat butts and fat people too, but different strokes I guess. I mean there are people out there that enjoy furry, scat, old people, big butts is the lesser evil here.

>>2016001
ribcage is too small

>>2016008
It's my style.

>>2016003
>I'm assuming you've never done any figure drawing on female drawings
what? you can do that??

>>2016001
>sexualizin lilo

you go to hell an think about what you've done

so, i know it's still incomplete but i'd like some suggestion before i finish it.
improve me.

>>2016015
>pic related
No worse that what Sanders would do.

>>2016016
I have no idea where the light source is coming from.

>>2016022
oh, i kno well about sanders, but he never drew lilo like that for a reason, dude

also, he always draws boobs as if they're underwater, trynna float away, try not to pick that stylistic quirk up

>>2016022
from up/left and another one from far behind on the right.

>>2016016
wtf you been doing this for like 2 months now.

>>2016035
i know.it just that i work a lot and have a really little spare time to do this.fuck my job

>>2016032
>I'd like to think he would.

I enjoy his cheesecake, but I appreciate his gestures and line more, no worries.

>>2016037
jobs are cancer to art ;(.

>>2016042
yeah.if only i could just draw every day and make money from that..

>>2016042
i must go now.i need to sleep. i will check this thread soon

>>2016001
The upper arms are hungry skeletons and the calves are twice as thick as her neck.

What the fuck.

>>2016075
Yeah, but I find literally none of that picture attractive at all

>>2016077
jus a different body type, mang, no need to worry, different people like different things, ain't no harm in that

>>2016096

The only thing I even remotely agree with in this redline is giving her more meat on the arm. All your other suggestions don't amount to making anything better.

I don't get why anyone would either samefag or disregard critique on a board about critique and it happens a lot. It's even worse when I don't receive critique and people who do just disregard it.

have you no shame?!

>>2016152
It was a joke,should I have typed "muh" instead?

>>2016153
yes

I'm not really sure where I was going with this but I decided to crush her internal organs

Just finished outlining, I don't like how my lines aren't very dynamic, any advice?
And in light of what people said about her jaw, I decided to move the face down a bit, instead of making her jaw smaller so the neck wouldn't get any longer.

>>2016280
Very your line weight. Also I think the chin should still be smaller.

>>2016140
face of an italian man

>>2016280
>And in light of what people said about her jaw, I decided to move the face down a bit, instead of making her jaw smaller so the neck wouldn't get any longer.

Construct the head structurally instead of just shifting facial features around until it "looks right"

>>2016280
Agreed with the other anons. It looks okay and the face looks better than before, but I still prefer the redline an anon did for it.

>>2016211

Reminds me of Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite.

Also, I dig it.

>>2016282
I do that but in a very small scale, I think I should use a bigger brush with less minimum size.
And I would but I'm afraid of straying away too much from Josei and delving into uuguu territory.

>>2016285
I do that during the initial sketching, but the way I shape the face is meant to be kinda flat in an unrealistic way, I think I just exaggerated the chin length.

>>2016047
you mean like, sakimi-chan right?

>>2016286
I know Josei isn't the most appealing manga style but that's what I've been following for a couple of years now, and the redline the other anon did was great, and I really appreciate it but it was more Shonen/Shojo, kinda like K-ON which isn't exactly what I'm going after... so yeah, muh style, etc, etc...

>>2016303
I kinda get what you mean after the colored version you posted. Keep going I guess, I'm curious to see how the final result will look. Liking it so far, style aside.

>>2016016
The colours really do not look nice. I think the super saturated red and blue don't work well together.

>>2016293
occipital lobe pls

>>2016293
>>2016293
the problem is your mouth is in the wrong place, its throwing everything else about her face off, at this angle she would have a mouth almost directly under her left eye
i moved it and changed it a bit, particularly the line underneath the lip
also her right eye is much taller than her left

>>2016368
Thanks, you actually made me realize I had forgotten about a key rule about the technique I use, although I didn't re-positioned it as much as you did, I hope this improved the overall looks of the face.
Thanks again!

>>2016408
no problem but you didnt understand what the problem is. the center of her mouth isnt underneath the center of her nose
you're arent construcing features, you're drawing a symbol for a mouth on this face and its an ok mouth but not where it goes
flip your image, its probably hard to see now but when you flip it'll really point out how out of place it is

im trying to fix up one of my prints for artist alley and i think its a lot better but not good enough, i could really use some crit if anyone has a moment
the biggest problem i have with it is the top of the canvas but i would love to know if anything stands out as weird looking

>>2016453
The white part of the hair is way too close to the color of the background. Really cool idea.

>>2016458
I disagree. It's too close to the color of her skin, and without shadows it has a weird blending effect.

>>2016462
With more shadows, then I think it would not look bad with the background. I agree. Also I think it is hard to see where her jaw is and where the rest of her cheeks are

generic animuu

>>2016467
Your drawings are not so clean but still cute. It's a little hard to tell what is going on.

>>2016465
Agreed. Some more under-the-chin shading would give better definition, but the simplicity of the face makes me wonder whether the distinction between jaw and cheek is strictly necessary here

>>2016458
I'm not the artist but it doesn't look like it; looks fine on my monitor. This sort of situation is the only apprehension I have about digital painting.

>>2016467
You have nothing to say. You have no knowledge.
Educate yourself before you pick up the stylus.

>>2016482
Sure, can you give me some pointers?

>>2016432
I see what you're saying, but your redlining makes the face looks very different, the "rule" I was talking about was that the tip of the lip should go along the same line of the bottom of the nose (following the curve of the face.)
And although it depends mostly on the subject, ears usually go from the bottom of the eyebrow to the bottom of the nose.

I'm not saying yours is wrong by any means, it's just things that I've observed throughout the years I've been following Josei artists.

Here's the sketch, maybe it can show where I began to go wrong, or see where I'm coming from when it comes to the angle of the face.

>>2016484
Not him but it doesn't really look like your lines are connected or that you're thinking about form. Some of the faces are not completed or exoressions do not make sense. How would you even go about lining them and coloring? They look like you just roughly, quickly copied from a show or something.

>>2016487
The face is mucchhh to long i am thinking. You don't have to be exact to that redline, but maybe a little closer to it. Also, for your lines, I didn't really see any variance as you mentioned before. Don't be so afraid to try something. Try and see if you end up liking or disliking. How will you learn if you don't explore?

>>2016484
he's full of shit. you do need to work harder though. it's too rough.

>>2016458
>>2016462
>>2016465
>>2016474
thank you guys! i think this is better
i didnt realize how much the feathers were blending and it looked messy
so i made the background bluer and defined the feathers more
i wasnt sure about shading under the chin because of where the source is but hopefully this looks better? (also i just realized i totally forgot to clean up the hands ha)

>>2016502
It's an improvement. I think you're getting closer but not quite there yet. Also maybe consider bringing the feathers at the top down a little more? Really cool concept

>>2016496
Yeah... I do think I have to explore more, I've tried many styles but I keep coming back to this one because it's the one I've obsessed about the most.
And is the length of the face an occurrence in all of my faces or just this particular one?

>>2016518
I think it is noticeable in all of them except for the male.

Can someone help me with this please?

>>2016527
I think it's something I'd have to rework from the basics, the references I used are probably out of date now.
Thanks again.

>>2016504
tweaked the chin shading again
and like this maybe for the feathers?

>>2016532
Chicken scratch and also you have to work on the natural arch of the back and gesture

>>2016532
you're too focused on making a stylzed face
learn to gesture drawings and really try to make the body more cohesive. it looks bad because you are drawing one chunk at a time instead of a full form. also practice anatomy and proportions

>>2016532
Face doesn't look that bad but for the rest of the body you need to go and learn the basics first. Use a reference as well.

>>2016547
>>2016539
>>2016536
Thanks. I'm trying to learn how to draw the body, I'll try harder.

>>2016487
attempted mspaint redline, probably blind leading the blind but i tried

blue line is what i feel your drawing is

basically back of head is too high compared to jawline

jawline conflicts with perspective and seems to aim horizontally

it's also too low compared to the back of the head

also no cheekbones

if someone actually knows what they're talking about please correct me

>>2016532
chicken scratch
also no construction in the body, it looks like you just tried and went for the finished result by guessing where the lines should be

construct naked people then put clothes on top of them, it also helps to show form and makes the clothes feel like they're actually on someone

>>2016534
I think maybe he meant bringing them to the sides as well, just a tad

>>2016552
This definitely makes things a lot clearer now, I see a lot of things I have to work on like the height of the jaw/size of the skull.
The lack of cheekbones and horizontal jaw are on purpose, if you look at the shading what ends up being that horizontal line is the fat below the chin.

But this does help me a lot, thanks, it might be too late for this drawing but I'll keep it in mind for my next one!

>>2016554
oh yeah that does help
last time i post this i swear, but thank you guys i really appreciate the help

Haven't painted in a fucking year or more now that I think about it.

>>2016775
Shame on you

>>2016778
Wasted so much time and continuing to do so. I'll be a hobo in no time.

>>2016490
>>2016499
ok m80s

>>2016295
i really don't want to be like her.i'd rather prefeer to ern something like 2000/2500 euro per month and i would be just fine.just think of it you don't do nothing all day long beside drawing a bit.you can enjoy life, be healthy doing sports, you can play videogames, watch films, see place.all you have to do is sell something like 4 draws in a month and do 4 more for the next one to sell.clear, simple, good.this would be awesome for me.

>>2016780
did you at least get bitches?

I did these for fun. I have not been drawing too long, so I apologize for the quality.
I am working on my studies. Staying motivated takes effort.

rate?

damn son

>>2017016
tits are too high up

>>2017017
No

>>2017016
draw more shitty anlkes

>>2017018

>>2017021
And where are the hands that are compressing them, and therefore elongating them in the long axis of the boobs cross section?

>>2017024
I don't know then, they just look off.

>>2017024
>therefore elongating them in the long axis of the boobs cross section?
Should have stopped while you were ahead. Now you sound like a complete hack.

>>2017017
>>2017021

>Tits are too high
>Posts reference of HANGING tits rather than compressed, held up tits

Come the fuck on, anon. At least post a picture trying to demonstrate your point.

>>2017016
who even cares i think it looks good

>>2017016
what bothers me most is not what I see but how I start to imagine the tits without the hands. Because even when compressed the lower edge almost touches her bellybutton - In my mind it looks like looong grandmothertits. It's not very important, just a note.

gonna have a go at coloring this later today

i'm pretty unhappy with the hunter so I'll probably make big changes to that too

crazy giant squid

>>2017126
Oh boy.

>>2017112
her/his leg is wrong
>>2017126
i think we should be seeing the thigh gap

>>2017016

>>2017126
cute

>>2017078
actually now that I looked at some pictures of Chesty Morgan who probably has the biggest natural boobs, it's about right.

>>2017126
I love it :3

What could I improve on ?

>tfw all tutorials online show people drawing scales individually.

Is there really no shortcut or tech to make the process less time consuming?

>>2017468
it looked ok until i realized that was a thigh gap and not her underwear
her pelvic area is tiny compared to her legs and rest of her body, it should be down to where the thigh gap ends

>>2017493
Try using textures and re-touching them after you've placed them.

>>2017468
whats up with the retarded vertical interface

are you special

>>2017579
vertical monitor, I'm assuming

>>2017493
You could make a pattern and liquify it for form.

>>2017468
yeah that thigh gap area just doesn't fit in, looks kinda forced - maybe you can make it a bit more subtle

so in other words possibly fixing the left leg

>>2016059
>the calves are twice as thick as her neck
What the fuck are you saying?
Generally calves are thicker than necks, there's nothing really wrong about the size of the calves.

>>2017604
>Generally calves are thicker than necks
They aren't, they're slightly smaller or about the same size at most.

They definitely are oversized in that image due to obvious exaggeration. Quit talking dumb shit like you're saying fact.

How does the color scheme of the dress look?
I'm not too happy about the lighter shade of pink.

I feel like my values are messed up

>>2017787
they are
she looks slimy, also her mouth is too far to the right of the picture

>>2017787
aside from anatomy issues I think you shouldn't be using a palette, it complicates a simple process.

>>2017799
I was trying to make her look kinda dirty/slimy looking. Ill fix her mouth tho, i was thinking the same thing. Thank you!

>>2017803
Im actually not using it, i started to paint it in colors and i turned it to greyscale, so yeah those were random colors.

>>2017811
Are you using reference? Her right eye doesn't look at an angle enough, her shoulders are too narrow and her mouth is too puckered up.

>>2017817
No, im not. Maybe i should try to find pictures of girls in this angle and see that im doing wrong more clearly.

>>2017822
that would be my first choice, you just have a very vague idea of what a person looks like, which isn't a bad thing, being able to draw from memory takes years and years of practice, but if you're going for realism you should have some reference ready.

>>2017829
Nah im not going for realism at all, but i would like to do something that at least is correct, stylization aside. Ill go search for refs, thanks for the advice :)

wip

>>2017849
I like it, the composition's good but it feels a bit flat, there's no muscle definition and the colors should be cooler since she's facing away from direct light.
Her shadow also doesn't match up with its light source, and it should blend in with what I'm assuming is the inside of a cave.
Also I'm getting the vibe you're hiding their hands and feet on purpose.

Overall I think it's looking pretty good, definitely keep working at it.

>>2016016
it's finally done.

>>2017908
That pattern on the background doesn't fit at all, other than that it looks good.

>>2017908
the colors are really not pleasant to look at

dooblin

>>2018056
Angle of the left leg doesn't match the angle of the shorts

>>2017112
My only critique would be the legs, her left one is in an awkward position, the other one - not.
Make both awkward or just make them both stand straight.
You can fix that in a million ways, it's up to you. And honestly, even if you leave it like that, it looks fine.
Everything else is great!

>>2018056
Pretty fluid bro, and qt2boot.

>>2017016
so this is the fabled upper front butt

>>2016211
the legs look a bit weird, like they're facing more right than her torso. might be because of the angle of the lines you drew at her crotch?
other than that she's pretty cute

Working on some random chick; anything seem off?

>>2017016
Site?

>>2018957
right arm looks a bit short, pose is too stiff and straight

>>2018957
Legs are too symmetrical, try having the left one facing viewer/other direction

>>2018957
those proportions man. something's really off and i can't tell if the calves or the shortened right arm are fucking it up

>>2017016
Your noses are getting worse by the day.

>>2018957
the legs are too long. they are longer then her entire upper half

>>2019006
I saw what you meant so I changed the legs a bit, is this better?
>>2019003
Natural relaxed poses are difficult for me, I'll try to focus more on making my characters flow... I think I'll start doing some life sketches or maybe referencing photographs?
>>2019010
Tiny arm... I didn't notice that. Is this a bit better?

//OTL

>>2019025
I just wanted to try something new and exaggerated
Perhaps I should stick to the basics and stop with stylising

>>2019040
the legs are fine, some people are just retarded.

they be like sitting there complaining that real rabbits don't look like bugs bunny and shit.

>>2019040
no,no,no. Just make it shorter and stylize it to fit.

>>2019035
>those feet
Are you the guy who animated that weirdly proportioned bunny (maybe, don't quite remember) thing with borderline amputee legs running some times ago? I really liked that, though it was more anime looking so it's probably not you.

>>2019050
Nah, I don't animate
I liked the boots that Him wears (powerpuff girls) so I thought I'd have a go at making the feet tiny

>>2018876
i'm sorry i don't know what you mean

>>2018056
the right eye looks fucked up, unless theres something covering it i dont know about
other from that its a good sketch

>>2017787
I tried to show you how I would determine the values. I wasn't sure where the light source was, and presumed there were at least two, judging from the hair and the hands. I'd recommend studying some b&w photos. I tried not too step too far away from your original stylization, to show it was possible to accomplish a more realistic look to your piece.

Is it okay so far? Aside from the slightly elfish ear, I'll fix this later.

>>2019379
Arm is at an unnatural relaxed angle, the upper arm should be rotated clock-wise a bit. Also the rib-cage is too elongated and her back is too flat.
Boobs look unnaturally round, and her braid is almost completely flat on the back of her head.

Other than that it looks like a good start.

whatever happened to mikufag and table guy. those two, firez, and the dude who made the op pic last thread are my favorite.

>>2019594
Table guy?

>>2019379
v. cute but her arm is too small, particularly her forearm, but the whole appendage is small.

>>2019598
traditional drawings with copic on copy paper. all of them were anime

>>2019594
they're still around
"dude who made op pic" is probably rinfag and he made this >>2017126

>>2019379
her face looks like its being pulled down
like the rest of her head looks fine but the face looks like it was drawn at an angle, i understand its supposed to be angular but its like when you drawn with your head titled to the side and then stop and look at something head on

>>2019620
oh yes he is thank you so much. I also know that firez is still around but i dont know where mikufag and table guy went

>>2019628
I'm hoping for mikufags return when he becomes incredibly good and famous.

>>2019711
I want to be as good as him

What kind of Brush should I use on Sai to get lines like these?

>>2019725

Those lines aren't anything special. Learn to pressure sensitivity.

>>2019725
The fucking pen brush you retard, what do you think.

Trying to ease into doing stuff from imagination. Too many studies of fuggin statues. Let me know what I'm doing wrong and how I can improve pls.

I'm still here lurking. Been swamped at work, and people are visiting so no time to draw. Things should return to normal in a couple weeks - thanks for remembering

I'm so used to drawing anime and I think it shows ahaha;;; I hope I'm doing it right.

>>2019775
You should post in the beginner thread.

>>2019775
overthinking.

>>2019744
Yay :3

>>2019801
Oh snap, sorry!

>>2019395
>>2019600
Thanks a lot anons, does it look better now?

>>2019627
You mean that the face looks too long? I changed it a bit, does it make more sense?

>>2019755
alright, onward I suppose

>>2019988
Looks a lot better, but the sleeve shouldn't curve with the arm.
Also is she supposed to be in profile or slightly facing away?

>>2020091
What do you mean about the sleeve? And she's supposed to be slightly facing away, how can I make it more obvious?

>>2020086
It looks fine other than the tiara looking a bit off, doesn't look like its facing the same way as the face. Face is also a little too round but that's just preferential.
I like the way you did the smokey background.

>>2020095
>doesn't look like its facing the same way as the face
oh shoot, thank you!

>>2020092
The sleeve should have more weight to it, wrinkles, follow gravity, it's just in the upper arm though.
And the angle of the body should be the same as the face, unless you only want the face to be looking away, which already looks like that and it's fine.

Too many layers later...
I discovered something important, though. when you see the pixels zooming in a bit, it means that you should had used a bigger canvas

>>2020108
Hands are too small, legs a tad short, her torso shouldn't turn that much, mouth looks off and your line weight is inconsistent.
Go find some reference and fix that.

>>2019602
>traditional drawings with copic on copy paper
>>2019977
Also, I got a tablet so you probably can't tell when I post anymore

>>2020108
I used a reference already
I'm so fucking pissed of this digital shit

>>2020224
how about getting into...
Vilppu?
you wont need any reference if you learn what he has to teach.

>>2020156
.... . ;-; you'll at least say at first right
Also where did you buy your copics? Did you get them for cheap?

>>2020224
Why are you using a male reference for a female character, it looks better now and the proportions look correct for a man but women look different.
This is why I was seeing her legs a tad short, the average male has a slightly longer torso than women, and I'm sure there are other, more subtle differences in the way women run compared to men.

Don't get frustrated, I'm just trying to help and we're all learning here.

anything i should fix before coloring?
should i add clothes?

>>2020331
It's a little hard to tell if the short haired one is female or male.

>>2020331
T-teal senpai?

can u guys help me with a sort of texture to give more detail to my drawing?

>>2020341
What is it supposed to be? o:

>>2020356
just a random drawing of a fat cartoon char
but i am having giving more detail :S

>>2020356
duh, its the pillsbury doughboy being sharpened into shanks after being dropped into a prison exercise yard, obviously...

>>2020362
finaly somebody who gets it

>>2020361
It looks like a mix between migi from parasyte and isaac from the binding of isaac.
Plus pregnant. I think you should do a new sketch of it.
Keep the cutness of isaac from it, but leave migi behind

>>2020156
ha-ha I can recognize your drawing from mile away fgt.

>>2020242
AHAHAHAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAHAAHHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>2020242

HAHAHAAHAHAHAGAGAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

A GUY WHO USES REFERENCE FOR OVER 30 YEARS AND THEN COME UP WITH SOME SHITTY METHOD OF DRAWING FROM IMAGINATION WILL TEACH YOU HOW TO DRAW HAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAA

>>2020412
I think this post gave me cancer
I mean the opinion is right and all but now I'm in chemo and I'm pretty sure this post is the reason for it

We regret to inform you that the kind, generous and supremely talented Anon passed away today from cancer and 4chan.

Their childhood dream to be like the great Vilppu has come and gone. They were a great artist, and their dedication to studies of hot chicks and Loomis will never be forgotten. Hopefully their body of work, which consisted primarily of amateur fantasy/sci fi concept art and well rendered boobs will long outlast them and create a legacy cherished by historians.

Thank you for all your love and support in this darkest of hours.
Sincerely,
Anon's Family

>>2019339
Thank you so much :)
Its been helpful. Heres what its looking so far

>>2020501
oh sorry for the GIANT size btw

>>2020501
Anatomy seems pretty fucked. if you ask me you should delete and redo everything from below the shoulders line
>>2020331
brush settings and resolution?

>>2020655
I know :( i just cant figure it out
if someone could redline it, it would be awesome.

>>2020655
just the default pen with low alpha
3000x3000

>>2020331
The one on top has improbably skinny thighs and knees, particularly their right leg. Looks nice though, I can never do linework that clean. How long does it take you?

>>2020331
Looks very pretty, but the anatomy looks strange. The bottom kid's spine is curved too much.

>>2020706
What's low alpha?
also check the lower body of the dude at the bottom, the ass seems too long
>>2020673
gave it a try, no idea on how to make that shoulder look understandable without changing it tho. do you have a reference picture with a pose like that?

How do you get started on learning to paint/color like this?

http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?id=991436

Or at least like the picture attached.

Done with Peach, thanks for all the help everyone.

>>2020715
No :( i dont..
It doesnt look fully right in your redline neither, but thanks a lot for giving it a try
I have a strong feeling that the shoulders are okay but the torso in mi pic looks weird. Maybe im gonna take your advice and redraw it from scratch

Trying to vary line weights. Am I overthinking this?

>>2020737
I think that while the face and torso are almost frontal, the wacky shoulder seems something out of a 3/4 or a sideview. or something
while I was typing this I realized how much fucking fat I've become in the last months.
fuck

>>2020156
I thought I recognized your style but I wasn't completely sure since it was digital so I didn't ask!

My artist's eye is still good

>>2020723
I love it, got a blog?

>>2020741
You got the concept wrong
lineweight is applied on the same line, think doing strokes with very runny watercolor and dipping the paintbrush after every line, but having a maximum width, if that makes any sense

>>2020720
Block in colors and dont blend.

>>2020768
All I have is an old dA account I haven't updated in more than a year, I might revive it though unless I find a more viable website:
http://lukeru.deviantart.com

>>2020772
Huh. Sounds like it saves a lot of time.

>>2020761
Im sure you are still beautiful, anon
btw kinda figured it out?

>>2020782
The only dude who do everything by himself is Masamune Shirow.
Every mangaka has assistants, that's how the industry works in japan.

>>2020801
resize!

>>2020792
why didnt you draw this kind of cool thing from the beginning instead of those weird goblin faces?

>>2020806
sorry i always forget to do so! :(

>>2020723
You could score glass with that chin

>>2020818
That chin is the chin that will pierce the heavens

>>2020808
1. They were trolls, not goblins
2. I tried, but most anons just didn't care

>>2020741
now draw the symphonia characters

i have to get this finished tonight
im gonna die

>>2021158
iz done already

>>2020257
>where did you buy your copics? Did you get them for cheap?
Check the copics thread, I bought mine on eBay for like $3 each >>2010510 i haven't used them in a month, and I miss them a lot...

>>2020765
Yeah that was probably me, I was asking a fuckton of questions about digital

>>2020723
I like the mushroom

>>2020720
>http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?id=991436
I fucking love so-bin

>>2021244
As do I. Still can't figure out how he colors/paints like that.

>>2021293
he paints like a normal anime dude and bumps the contrast and saturation when he's done is what it looks like

>>2021296
But he does all these super thick strokes and like the anon mentioned earlier, he doesn't blend them. How does he do that?

>>2021301
well i mean looking at those two examples, he uses bunches of layers
he may merge them as he goes but its just layered strokes, its why they aren't blended and some of them are slightly transparent

>>2021308
Oh. Wow, thanks. That makes a lot of sense.

>>2021301
in the normal way people paint

How do you learn styles?
I want to do a more simplistic thing like this guy
But when I draw I feel like I need to put everything into extreme detail
Making a quick sketch take a full hour

>>2020501

>>2021335
Onee san "type"? Shit even basic anime niggas know it's spelled "taipu"

Anyway, if you try not to deviate from simple construction, you'll have a simpler result. Using thicker lines can also shoehorn you into a more stylized result.

I mean if you're totally clueless, just start copying some simpler more stylized dudes until it starts to feel natural, overwhelm your tendencies and flagellate yourself when you get start getting too meticulous about details. But be forewarned, unless you get loose and comfortable with the idea of something simple you'll always feel like you have to add more and complicate things.

Really though, I don't think it's such a simple matter of going stylized. The simpler you get, you should become proportionally more precise and bold about the smaller number of variables you have to juggle to really define the style. That means extra attention to shit like lineweight and proportions.

>>2020771
Ah, crap. Whoops.
I was trying to show depth, but I was overthinking it too much that I misapplied the concept. Suggestions on what to do instead? Just keep the line art simple?
>>2020872
Okay. Any recommendations?

>>2018441
thanks for the magenta line
i actually greatly appreciate it
i'll keep working towards making it right

Been working on these. Bad lighting . Any input would be appreciated.

Finished this recently, would love to hear what you fine folks think.

Really, really adoreable. You just need to clean it up a little bit.

does anyone have a reference pack of fit/toned women? Preferably in nude.

>>2021401
These are awesome, I love the colors and theme, really good in general.
One thing though, don't be afraid to make two colors touch each other, I can still see some of the canvas.

In any case, do you mind if I make 1 and 3 my phone's background?

>>2021482
Sure thing. Thanks for the thoughts!

I've been working towards a comic about a high security cartoon prison/gangland style story

thoughts?
