Who made that quote?

>>2098641
Loomis, in his opening to "Figure Drawing for all it's Worth"

>>2098641
Loomis.

>>2098641
Michael Bay.

What are the planes of an animu face

I don't even know, man.

>>2098640
I feel as if she doesn't have balance. You should also work on your facial anatomy and how you paint/draw hair. But, I do like the rest of the picture. It looks great from the thumbnail, at least.

>>2098804
is she handing over the gun?

>>2098627
Artistic ability is a gift, but you still need to work on it and hone it of course.

>>2099217
Thats great, Anon. But what happened to the kid on the bottom? Did somebody wreck his/her head or something?

>>2099217
>>2099680
Looks like he got goomba stomped

>>2099217
are you the guy who attempted the fisheye last time? i still don't think you understand the nature of perspective well enough (though this is a lot better).

your image is like a mix between 1point and 2 point perspective. understand that if we are looking at a VP almost directly, then we are a lot closer to 1PP than 2PP.

you'll notice that the entire right side of the image looks a little weird and distorted, and that's the reason.

>>2098702
neck and ears position doesn't make any sense. shoulders are also all style and no logic.
cut back on the style and don't forget the fundamentals.

>>2098640
cute. ears would probably look better if they were lower and pointing less upward. her right eyebrow is wrong. the head is generally a little lopsided

I'm having a terrible time with hands

>>2099700
nobody can get so fat with strawberries

>>2099709
No Anon she's dieting

>>2099680
>>2099691
kek

>>2099692
no that was some other anon, but yeah I am struggling with perspective. but I am working on it.

>>2099855
please color this like some old renaissance painting.

>>2099700
nice lines

wip

Haven't drawn on tablet for a while.

>>2100050

Dope, keep it up.

Maybe add a touch of bright bright highlights, once you've got it refined.

>>2100400
rinfag ?

>>2100407
No.

>>2100050
nice

>>2099858
I'll try, but I was going with a comic look, similar color palette like mignola


can I get away with tumblr noses, when most of the persons are drunk in a tavern?

>>2099217
Post more. I love art like this where it's from a POV and there's loads of different people in the room. Gives you a good chance to draw lots of varying character and facial expressions

>>2100407
Funny joke. Rinfag always draws ugly stubby lolis with bad faces.

>>2100478
in the future try not to make things evenly seperated from eachother theres no way there would be so neatly seperated chairs in a inn like that.

>>2100521
i'm trying my best

>>2100478

You may not care, but those wooden beams don't make sense. They would sit on top of the wall instead of intersecting with it. You have those corner supports that are holding up the ceiling and the bottom of the beams should sit on those. Its also at a sort of odd angle at the back of the room and at the top of the stairs. I like the piece though

>>2100546
The face is way too huge for the rest of the head.

>>2100546
face/head to body proportions is absolutely atrocious.

LOOOOOMIS, literally

>>2100553
>>2100556
thanks anons.

>>2100553
guys.... it's supposed to be like that...

in fact, the head is much smaller than the CANON tristana.

>>2100562
>it's supposed to be like that

It's still out of proportion in relation to the head

>Muh style!

It's still out of proportion in relation to the head

>I-it's meant to be that way!

It is still out of proportion in relation to the head and everything else.

>>2100562
Frickin League of Legends, man...

>>2100562
you don't understand the concept of proportion.

the image you posted has a face that reminds us more of mouses and hamsters, so it can at least trick us into thinking it's believable.

>>2100546 this on the otherhand attempts to use human proportions. and not even correctly, because the face is also too huge in comparison to the head.

>>2100562
okay, how about this

1. face of a cartoon, body of an adult midget
2. it's uncanny valley as fuck
3. that neck really bothers me okay I want to cry
4. the fuck is up with her right ear
5. nigga that face scares me what the fuck

>>2100495

>>2100527
>>2100547

thanks for the advice, I'll consider such things for the next setup

>>2100697
I really like this, anon

>>2100562
>Hmm, her legs look too normal, oh right, I could make her have muhnime legs

>>2100740
Is this your work anon?

Do you guys do commissions in paypal by "request money" or "create an invoice" ?

>>2100773
>324434-screenshot040.jpg
>screenshot

I don't think so

>>2100790
Create an invoice, always. Make sure it's not marked as gift (services/items, etc), no address needed for the commissioner.

So I'm shit at perspective and I'm trying to learn so obviously this is crap but I need some pointers, maybe someone can red line or blue line some stuff. Point out my flaws because biased eyes and what not. It's supposed to be an alium looking up at a girl in a chamber, I wanted to use this perspective because it made more sense to me.

>>2100998
What's bad about asking for a payment without an invoice? Just curious.

>>2100994
I don't know if you're being sarcastic, but he could have screenshotted his own work

>>2101009
Because commissioners are ignorant. You can get into trouble by Paypal if they send it via "Gift" (avoiding fees), make your account look questionable by having a lot of payments for "physical" goods when you're sending non-physical goods/services by them attaching their address and you not attaching a tracking #.

And if you're doing porn commissions, you can obviously get in trouble if they say something like 'dragon sucking dragon dick' or whatever in the comments. You can also omit your own address in the invoice, I believe.

>>2101014
It's from an animu called Katanagatari.

>>2101017
>if they say something like 'dragon sucking dragon dick' or whatever in the comments
This is why I want to avoid doing anything furry related...

>>2101023
Or you can just not be an idiot and send them an invoice, or don't do furry *porn*.

>>2101023
"Can i have some cuck porn? Preferably a black guy penetrating a small child?"

There are certain words PayPal will flag you for, close your account, and not give you any remaining money you've left. ON TOP of a $2500 fine for violating any rules

>>2101033
I thought the 2.5k fine was for avoiding fees?

>>2101037
No, it's for violating the terms of service. Avoiding fees would be a violation too. Although i don't know if it means 2500 for each violation, or in total

>>2101044
Ah, I thought it was avoiding fees in particular.

long time no see lads

>>2101044
but what about this then it says to do it by request money. You still pay fees by doing so so idk why its bad. Request money is still some kind of invoice i think.

I'm new to character sheets, first try, tell me everything is wrong and how could I present it properly, I used references but my design taste is shit :L

>>2098627
OP, the shadow at the girl's crotch is forming a tangent with the bottom of her shirt.
Pls fix, my autism is tingling

>>2100710
thanks mate

>>2101096
that's slightly better than usual. but those lips still don't look right.

>>2101415
the image quality is horrible, what did you do.

>>2101433
low quality jpg, hd is too heavy, probably i was too drastic kek

>>2100697
Where's Gorolt's beard, mate?

>>2101456
geralt's not always bearded mate

cant fix saturation yet due to how I'm coloring it with layer effects, tried the same process as ruto ( >>2101415 ) but as I couldn't control values it will be on dark ambient now kek

any tips?

>>2101623
srry for double post, fixed a bit

How do I learn the fundamentals?
I can't afford classes, (I make 20 dollars a week leftover for food after all other expenses)
I don't own my own computer, so I can't just live off the internet guides.
I could download pdfs to my kindle, but that won't help me with color theory, since it's black and white.
And whenever I try to draw from life I die a little inside.

>>2101680
>And whenever I try to draw from life I die a little inside.
if you don't challengue your self you won't change

it's a thermodynamic law now

>>2101680
Then use your kindle for everything but color theory and draw from life.
Sounds like you're just trying to make excuses.

>>2101700
yeah... probably.
I'm a bit of an escapist.

>sorry for interrupting your thread.

>>2101736
You aren't, it is just a defense mechanism you developed. You can choose to drop it at any time.

it's never to soon to post produce, oh wait :/

can you imagine something precious burning in fron of her? D:

how could I tell

Been some times since I drew my characters.

>>2101826
you should photoshop a black dick in there

>>2101921
I got you covered

Been some times since I drew my characters.


>>2101961
eh.

>>2100546
Shit, my anatomy is worse than this guy, but I think she should look more cartoon-ish like the original artwork.

>>2102095
Forgot to add, please direct me to which anatomy book I should start studying and all that good stuff. I haven't drawn in about 5 months.

>>2101961
Please don't do that, can you take it off and put it back how it was please.

I'm designing my main character and the various outfits she'd be able to wear so this isn't a finalized piece or anything, I just wanted some opinions on the aesthetics of the clothes and maybe some suggestions for future outfits (I'm really bad when it comes to coming up with fantastic outfits.)

>>2102121
I love your art so much!

>>2102121
Is the third one her alter-ego/superhero or something of sorts outfit?

The first two outfits look they would be worn by the same person. But I'd change the stirrup leggings for skinny jeans if you're gonna have her tuck a thick sweater in (because that would looking weird irl). As for the second outfit, I think a tad bit more pastel turquoise would fit the color scheme better.

>>2102095
really disturbing

I just got a cheap wacom pad, and holy shit digital is fun

also good place to work on coloring and shading

>>2101680

I'm not too good of an artist, but

if you're trying to learn fundamentals I'd recommend Loomis and Hampton, they're great for learning basic construction, and learning how to draw basic geometry for bodies can translate to other 3-d objects.

Personally I think it's most important to be able to visualize the body in your head.

Also, don't underestimate making your own reference sheets

something i drew for a friend

>>2102121

This is some neat shit. Got a tumblr or a DA page to shill out?

Just lay it on me

>>2102123
Thank you so much!!

>>2102124
No, it's established in the setting of the game I'm working on that fashion is very important so it plays a big role on some of the characters, no matter how different it makes them look (so basically everyone's very superficial)
And you're right! That would look weird irl, I'll make it so her sweater isn't tucked in because I really wanna keep the stirrup leggings.

Also how's this? After making them such a bold color it's kinda hard to not see them opaque when toning down the color.

>>2102134
Thanks! And I don't, but I made a tumblr account a couple of days ago to post any of my future work so feel free to follow me there!

MUSCLE ELVES

>>2102247
Not as bad as >>2102095

>>2102121
good design character= character x context

we don't know a shit about your story lore

first outfit make her look older and mature, it's elegant, seems real

second outfit make her look from Jersey Shore, that fucking shoes mate, pink and neon blue xD, fix palette and she'll be normal

third seems to be a profesional magician that also is a bitch, can't tell if it's appropiate, that whore leggins are the worse, if you really want to make her look femme fatale like you dont have to make her a prostitute, also, make her lips and nails red

le emma watson face is nice

>>2101921
>>2101961
thx for the help kek

>>2102233
please tell me you realize she would be dead due to her head twisting so far?

>>2102322
>good design character= character x context
I had never looked at it that way, I'll keep that in mind from now on.

I tried to tone it down >>2102145
does that look any better?

>third seems to be a profesional magician that also is a bitch, can't tell if it's appropiate, that whore leggins are the worse, if you really want to make her look femme fatale like you dont have to make her a prostitute, also, make her lips and nails red
I just wanted her to have a loose top and tight bottom without using leggings again, so I went for tights.
And will try the red lips/nails, thanks!

>>2102326
This is why people need to look up refs before drawing

>>2102342
just steal color combinations of real model references, u will mill avoid headaches

for third one, you can maintain tights, just choose other tights, that kind of tights are related to what I said for everyone, prejudges are the tool designers gotta use to comunicate

oh, and it was like this: >character = needs x context

>>2102132
nice

>>2102353
The other guy is right. Your "ref 's" head is in front of the shoulder and neck twisting. The guys short elf woman thing is clearly going over with no next twist. So its just turning from the single point.

>>2102366
cool he rite

drew an animu

>>2102379

>>2102380
Shit she found your fao material put on you cool face!

All my microns ran out of ink except the 05. I can't decide if I want to buy some more...
#9 came out ok - everything else was just scribble shit. I always say I am going to color these, but I probably won't.

>>2102379
i agree anime girl, who the fuck would buy a magazine in this day and age?

Could you guys help me out? I can't find a reference for this pose, except bits and pieces here and there, and I just find the legs and head wrong.

Don't mind green an blue lying around, I just placed them in quickly just to get the feel.

Yes, it's suppose to be Dante from DMC1

>>2102451
Is that you Sycra? OuO

>>2102477
Nah, sycra's stuff isn't that nice

>>2102468
perspective needs work., so does proportions

(his right arm appears smaller than it should be/proportion of forearm to arm is wrong)

>>2102495
Alright, I'll take note of that. What about the head and legs? Those are the parts I'm iffy with.

>>2102095
>the distance between the eyes
its like nobody ever learns

>>2102480
Seems pretty similar to me, although sycras sketches are rarely that clean from what I've seen.

how the fuck do you even mistake tablefag for sycra. summer is really coming huh

>>2102499
Sycra's stuff is very sharp and angular. Really looks nothing like his

>>2102451
do you have a blog or something so I can stalk you?

I was wondering, do you people think the animu series (kyoani for example) have good anatomy and proportions to use as a guide for that style?

>>2102795
real human proportion cognition is a fucking part of the brain, you don't even need to learn it, your brain already do that job for you for human recognition, what you gotta learn to git gud is constructive drawing, if you're headaching with styles u're not gonna grow up anything

>>2102800
Don't listen o this moron.

Thoughts?

It's gonna be a cut paper piece, but I want the drawing to be solid too

Also the goddamn captcha is making me hungry...

Question!

Currently under going studies through Vilppu, and among other things (such as perspective and life drawing).

When should I start tackling the Art Stylize subject, and where should I begin? Looking through most of the sources here, a lot of it is in moon speak.

Critique?
On proportions and form and anything else that looks horribly wrong.

>>2103237
You'll develop a subtle unique style the more you learn and practice fundamentals. As for focusing on and developing a style that you want, I'd say up it off until you have a good understanding of of basic things. Like form and proportion in 3d space and perspective.

I tried to tackle fundamentals and stylization at the same time. I'm better than I am when I first started but I'm still producing things I'm not particularly proud of. (pic related)
When you start focusing on stylization never stop drawing from life.

>>2103351
I see. Thanks for that info. I'll continue my studies until I understand what I can do with the knowledge I learned.

Why do the positions of the features change where they are on the construction lines at different angles? How am I supposed to know where to put them

>>2103351
u gotta think that backbone, simplified, have 4 parts, neck, torso, waist and hips, that pose is weird because you didnt care about backbone, all the body is rigid, all the limbs are random, you should try to construct similar poses you've just studied

redesigned and colored this character I did time ago, might try another haircut, any crits welcome

>>2103419
Not sure if i get your question
Also, what book is this from?

>>2103354
If you don't test what you are study you wont know if you're learning anything

to study for an exam the people usualy try to write all to check they remember it, we gotta do the same thing with art studies, to apply them

>>2103422
Some of the features change position on the constructions lines, like on one angle the ear is on the ear line but on other angles its in front or behind that line. Why is that?

Also its the "how to draw moe" book from the artbook thread

>>2103429
cuz constructive lines are not done with a ruler and the artist might had feel it that way when inkin, it's not perfect and there is no magic trick to do it right, you just need expirience with construction

How to draw same animu face twice?

trying to develop few concepts for link redesign, wish me luck

>>2103520
those hands... what the fuck

>>2103520
ftm transformation? hes missing a penis

>>2103538

He's probably a millennial.

I fucked up the feet didn't I

>>2103549

>>2103419
Perspective motherfucker. It's not that hard!

http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/perspect1.html

>>2103419
Also I think her ears are in the same plane as the ear line. It's just that the circle made by the ear line isn't flush with the side of her head.

So I reworked this last night and again this morning with >>2103420 in mind.

The one on the right is this morning. Did it a little quicker so the forms aren't as defined. Hows the spine? Is she dead?

>>2103549
Yes, and the legs, hands, and eyebrows.

>>2103802
>not mentioning her disturbingly huge cranium, even by animu standards

>>2102924
what is he holding?

>>2103798

arms are still long

torso is better but still too short or the ribcage is too long

>>2103803
>I have never seen based Key's animes

FUCK

>>2103892
I feel ya

>>2103798
The forearm alone( not including wrist) is never longer than the biceps and shoulders combined so yours is too long. Also her spine is crazy uncomfortable looking.

>>2102880
Quickly assembled to make sure I have all the pieces, and I'll glue it when I have more light tomorrow

>>2103823
>>2103925

Shortened the ribcage and arms. Mind explaining how I can fix the spine?

>>2100546
pls tell me who you are
tumblr etc

hey guys, any of you have some fantasy setting references for characters?

>>2103966
its called real life you faggot nerd.

>>2103970
yeah I gotta go to the bar to watch those orcs and people in celtic clothes, how I could be that bling

>>2103798
>>2103951
Starting to see more and more people draw on mid grey backgrounds. Strange...

Anyway, I feel like your jumping a few steps ahead when your drawing the figure. Even though the pose is supposed to be dynamic, it seems stiff. If I remember correctly, Michael Hampton describes the figure drawing process as going from:
1)Gesture/Action
2)Shapes/Structure
3)Anatomy
Vilppu does the same thing.
One last thing. Try to keep things simple in your drawings. Why use 5 lines when you can use one, ya know?
I hope this was helpful, but take my critique with a grain of salt, anon.

>>2103939
Really nice! Tumblr?

how the fuck do i draw one character consistently across different poses / expressions / angles?

>>2104168
First of all, practice. Second, reference sheet. Scale and proportions for the shapes has to stay consistent, that can only be done if you know what you're doing.

>>2104212
>know what you're doing

oh, i though this was the alternative thread, my bad

>>2104257
he seems to be right, stylization is not off fundamentals

updating it, what are your throughts? what are the things I should take care and what are the things I should not? The point was to do it simple to make it fast, but it's taking me a lot and it's not even detailed -_-'

>>2104265
for real i forgot to ink the front view hat? wtf

>>2104130
Thanks! I no longer have a tumblr though. Was sick of the drama.

>>2099700

thats breddy gud

resize it though damn

>>2100540

why do your studies look so much better than your imagination drawings rinfag

you'd be amazing if you had better sense/taste just like firez

>>2104314
from what i understand, i feel like 'm stuck on a plateau/mental block that i have no idea how to break out of. i know these things, but i have no idea as fuck how to apply them.

that and i'd maybe pin it on work and needing to get better daily, being compared to better artists at work all the time is kind of distressing.

>>2104314
It's probably a mental block that I need to break out of somehow. I know these things, but I have no idea how the fuck to apply them. I wish there was just someone or something to help pull me out of this plateau, which is why I still post here because there aren't many people I'm close to that don't hold back/won't sugar coat their crit and comments.

I feel stifled at work, so I always end up just drawing "whatever the hell I feel like" when I'm free and it always ends up looking like crap.

>>2104391

consume more, get more inspiration outside of whatever narrow band that you're taking from currently. it seems like you're stuck on one specific style of anime when there's like

thousands of distinct styles

YOU ARE the sum of your experiences

>>2104444
I tend not to do that at home because I basically have to match the style of whatever game I'm working on at work. I've gone through quite a few projects now.

>>2104454
damn, what have you worked on?

>>2104455
Brave Frontier, Phantom of Kill, Dragon Genesis to name a few

Design process.

Thought I'd post it here rather than opening a whole new thread for it like last time.

Some of the critique I got last time, was that it didn't seem believable that they could fly. Ofc, they're aided by air magic, but they still need to be able to pick up the wind in order to fly.

So I did some studies and sketches, and took notes. Overall, I feel fairly satisfied with the result, now to move onto a full anatomy construction for both genders, and then racial diversity.

Any ideas on how races would differ?

I figured the main race, which is very Akkadian, and based off Mesopotamia, would be comprised of mainly falcons, hawks, vultures and ravens.

I wanna also add crows, to kinda play off the Tengu motive, and make them more Asian, place them in the east.

Swans would be a graceful nobility.

Owls would perhaps be sages.

Anything else?

These threads are horrible. It's arrogant brats pretending to be social. Jin is probably the most 2 faced one here on top of that. I can't wait to meet any of you in real life, just to see how much of an asshole you really are

>>2100567
Jesus christ, this gave me cancer

>>2104551
I've learned that it's only THIS thread that is full of bitter assholes, because the rest of /ic/ can be quite helpful. I believe that it's a lot of /a/ crossposters, because I sense a lot of the same bitter and cynical elitism you see in that shithole, and it makes sense, since this is the "anime thread."

Proof that modern /a/ is cancer.

>>2104559
>I've learned that it's only THIS thread that is full of bitter assholes,

You haven't been on other threads, im guessing. This thread, the draw thread, and the beginner threads all fluctuate from "pretty fucking neat and helpful" to "the worst goddamn thing on the planet." I haven't spent too much time on the porn threads to get a feel for them but I can imagine it'll be similar.

>>2104566
Yeah, I only either post here, or make my own threads. I also cross post with /adv/ and /tg/ since I mostly look for design critique, so I tend to get very helpful posts from people.

Every time I post here I either get ignored, or get the usual and tired "hurr, anatomy, loomis" bs. Every once in a while I get a genuinely helpful anon though.

I don't understand what it is about this place that turns people into such assholes though. I post in other art forums too, and people there are generally friendlier. It's just the reply rate is obvuously slower than here.

Nothing wrong with asking for second opinions dude.

Especially when it comes to design.

After all, isn't that the point of this thread? To give people advice and help them improve?

I don't see why people like you feel like they can just come in here and use this as their place to vent their frustration and be a dick to other people, instead of actually being a decent human being and providing people with something of value. ironically, your bitter and negative attitude only reflects what sort of person you are, and in the long run and only hurts you. Everyone else will simply move onto other places to get what they want, and surround themselves with people who have a desire to strive and succeed, while you sit here, by your bitter self, trying to make other people feel like shit.

This is what you call, "believing in abundance," you don't need to belittle other to boost your own ego, because you already believe in your own potential and that you are already enough.

Stay bitter, anon.

>>2104569

4chan generally has more assholes and trolls than the average internet forum.

My theory is that you get a bunch of terrible fucking people with legit issues (ranging from anti-social tendencies to typical bitter misanthropic /r9k/ bullshit), bored kids who just want to keep up on le ebin shitposting, and autistic kids who parrot that cause they don't know what else to do. And trolls, can't forget about them.

Generally /ic/ is good for two things, slapping total beginners straight and for pirating books, paid images, and classes. And shitposting.

>>2104581
>Generally /ic/ is good for two things, slapping total beginners straight and for pirating books, paid images, and classes. And shitposting.

Couldn't agree more. My experience has been the same.

>>2103939
cool stuff

>>2104391
you need to understand that stylization is not quite the same as just learning the anatomy.
it's more about applying those fundamentals in different ways. really try to focus more on design if you want to figure this out. also simplify, focus on shapes and lines.

anatomy is only there to figure out how things look in different angles. don't rely on it for everything. again, design more

>>2104598

Have any resources for learning design? /ic/ can shovel out at least 5 different books about learning anatomy but no one can point out anything good on design.

>>2104603
just play with shapes and proportions.
and if you want to bring design and anatomy together, do a lot of gestures.

>>2104581
Same. I only come here for free books and neat stuff. I know i'm shitty, that's why I'm working on it.

The other day they all had a fit of rage when someone made a Sakimichan thread about how she was making $27,000 bi-weekly. The thread went on with no real explanation as to why they hate her other than the "Lol I may be eating ramen for dinner but I won't sell out!!11!!" excuse. I can guarantee you that if someone can make $50,000 a month drawing fan art, they would. That's more than some people make in a fucking year, and you tel me they wouldn't do that just because they don't want to be a sell out?

So for anyone here, take what /ic/ says with a grain of salt, you don't have to impress any of them.

>>2102504
Are you literally retarded in the head? Do you have any idea how fucking stupid the "summerfag" meme is? You are implying that there are people who refrain from shitposting on le chans simply because they are focusing on their studies. Thats fucking retarded. You're fucking retarded. Shitposters gonna shitpost, no matter what time of year it is. Another thing; you're implying that being on 4chan all year round is something to be proud of. That's retarded. You are literally retarded in the brain. Take a step back and look at yourself. No wonder you aren't like your covetted normies. At least "summerfags" get laid. Fuck you. From the deepest bowels of hell, fuck you.

porn thread is worse, these threads have been relatively comfy lately, there's finally a new retard in class for the bullies to pick on

>>2104560
Even then, /ic/ has always been full of extremely bitter people.

>>2104761
KEK
obvious summerfag.

>>2104761

Anyone with more than two braincells know that summer doesn't change shit, Moot said himself that traffic barely get higher, but still extinguish your tits man, they're on fire.

Drawing some cyberpunk thugs.

Any errors/feedback on this one so far? i know the hair's messy, it's the rough draft

>>2104982
100% frontal poses won't push you anywhere' as you will fal to symbolic drawing avoiding construction (visual thinking)

>>2104982
The neck is just weird, it widens as it goes up. Also the hair doesn't cover all of the skull on the right side.

No clue, looks good.

Got the urge to draw Judge Dredd, messing around with the sketch.

>>2104994
Not him, but funny enough, I always draw worse when doing a full frontal than a 3/4 or profile shot.

Something about full frontals just throws me off.

>>2105015
>Something about full frontals just throws me off.

Its probably the need for symmetry or just a lack of practice.

>>2105008
Sick line control, as usual

>>2105015
I also struggle with frontal view. After drawing the first eye for 10 sec, I have to spend 3 min just to mirror it.

>>2104936
Good stuff.

>>2105033
>conjoined triplets

would love to have some crits/suggestion on this before i continue

..idk but something just looks off. cant figure out what exactly

>>2105110
neck on the left one is way too long the middle one has a slightly too long one as well.

>>2105123
>>2105110

for the middle one you probably just need to put the clavicles higher

>>2105123
>>2105124
noted, thanks

digital artist trying to get into traditional

markers are neat, watercolors are difficult and takes a lot of patience

original painting looks much worse than the photo, will try to scan it later

>>2105110
follow the tips they posted, and keep that faces lol

had to work in 7hr timeframe for a stream so my apologies that it's not too refined

also the pose is really stilted so i'm hoping someone could help me out with some advice on posing figures in space

>>2105110
Are those suits? or are they android/robo-human?
Those would be too tight fitting; do they even have fat or muscle?

>>2105139
not the greatest in terms of quality but definitely worth more then the sum of it's parts. better than most of the over the top futa crap that plagues the porn threads.
The only thing I can say is stop drawing animes and start animeing real people if that makes any sense. the face feels really out of place.
also mayhe have her eyes looking out the window or something idk, its good but that face man///

>>2105130
with that tiny ass brush ofc its hard

try using a brush that can hold more paint/water, like the chinese ones

>>2105123
What if he wants a long neck?

>>2105248
and what makes you think that?

unproportionally long necks are never good.
like i said, the middle one is not necessary a long neck. you could also say that the nipples are too close to the clavicles. either way it results in a long neck.
and in the left one the neck is almost as long as the entire head.

>>2105139
There are a lot of construction problems in the face and the torso. Still, it's better than most on this board. Keep grinding, anon.

>>2105386
kek
make the buildings look more like buildings

>>2105386
Not enough pecs
I am disappoint

>>2105226

Thanks for the tip, which chinese one?

>>2105386

I always feel like something gets lost between the sketch and the final product in your works.

The linework looks better to me at the start

>>2105423
i dunno, any that is availble in your region and isnt dirt cheap, because those wont last long.
i personally use one of these (brand: Kolibri). it was like 6 euros. i have no idea how it compares to a pricier one but for its price is pretty good

>>2103939
And done

>>2103939
>>2105519

Oh wow, this is real neat.

>>2104274

Damn. Let me guess, tagging drama & weird passive aggressive demands?

wip some guys fighting

>>2105802

Push your poses, especially with the two guys on the right.

>>2105810
thanks, i knew they felt off but i couldn't put my finger on it.

>>2105824

Thinking about it, if I were trying to lay the smackdown on some faggot I'd do my best to keep my eyes on him unless i was being forced otherwise, among other things.

Hopefully this pic helps show what i'm talking about further.

critique?

>>2105868
Comfort zone

>>2105868
She's a babe. I'll just mention the stuff that popped out at me right away. Rhe back of her head, her right arm (position is vague), the v of the collarbones too close together. Maybe refine the horns, but I'm guessing you're working on it. Also consider including one of the hands in the picture.

>>2105876
How would you know if this is my comfort zone? :/
>>2105886
Thanks. I can see it now, too. Will fix it

>>2105868
More parts of her right horn should be visible. Try constructing.

>>2105868
Hair is blobby and uninteresting, breasts protrude from her chest rather than being part of it, left arm is dislocated or something.

Oh and the clothes are anime as hell but whatever

>>2104314
And here I thought I had at least some taste...oh well...

no draw thread. heres this. think im done working on it

>>2105971
Don't try hiding your lack of anatomy knowledge with bulky armor. We know.

>>2105971
I think he was complimenting you firez bb.

A lot of your drawings suffer from sameface. You should work on that, but other than that i love you

>>2105919
>>2105923
I tried to apply your suggestions and fix what errors you pointed out. Better?

>>2105971
nah dude he's saying your taste is better than mine is. i'll keep grinding

>>2105993
But I made her with a bulky armor before...

>>2105999
Thanks. I <3 too bb.

>>2106073
Yes me too but fwiw I like your colors, and your brushwork is charming

>>2105993 #

Who is this samefag shamefag

>>2106108
I was using another PC and posted as anon, then I realized my mistake and turned into the usual tripfag. Big deal

I created this a while ago but don't really know what to dow with it.

>>2106108
>AAYY LMAOO
This is a tripfag that wouldn't even take off his trip posting images of his 'good taste' in art
I wonder what happened there...

also pls charge fon

These cost £12 in my country but price isn't an issue, thanks ordered

>>2106171
pic related my best meme work

>>2106129
You could color it based on her mood. A profile is going to be flat anyway so you could try to bring some sort emotion to it. Rendering practice maybe

>>2104936
i like cyberpunk

>>2106053
Armpit area looks very weird. You should have finalized the drawing before rendering.

>>2106133
More witches please

>>2106269
More blind sick girls please

marker sketchbook stuff from today - maybe this should go in the sketchbook thread. I just discovered creaturebox - soooo have some creaturebox facsimiles

still trying to get good with dem markers

>>2106354
Are you the guy who usually makes all the shitty angles and cover your art in lines? If you are, this shows a lot of improvement.
Work on showing form without covering everything in lines.

>>2106354
Love you tableguy

>>2106354
what sketchbook are you using which has paper that doesn't buckle or bleed with wet markers?

>>2106410
Interested in this also. I'm thinking of buying a stack of bristol vellum and having it bound, but I have no idea how well it goes with mediums other than pencil

>>2104581
Some people on 4chan are geniuses and this is most of time related with their social issues like sociopathy. You don't have to write comfortable and humanitarian bullshit here all the time. If you can filter and understand what you read, you will learn a lot.

>>2106445
Having mods who actually pay attention would also help a lot. I've liked the hands off approach that 4chan has, but there's a fucking limit to the anarchy a board can tolerate before turning into complete shit.

Anyone here who just draws ripped dudes when trying new programs/hardware?
I suppose it's the anatomy atlases influence.

>>2106475
Nice
His left hand looks a bit off. I think it should be seen from a higher angle.
Did you draw this digitally? What kind of brush? Looks rad.

>>2106538

one of ms5's pencil brushes if I'm not mistaken

>>2106538
His left hand is a disaster, but I'm trying to fix it.
I don't remember from whom did I steal this brush, but I can give you a link if you're interested
>>2106545
nope, this was done in photoshop.

>>2106171
Atta boy Firez getting feisty there

>>2106549
Thanks, a link would be great.
Or just the name of the brush.

i dont know anymore

>>2106706
those carrot shaped horns are a bit crooked.
the head is tilted but the horns arent

>>2106706
All of your stuff nice, but looks very similar. You should try getting out of your comfort zone once in a while.

>>2106721
I guess the only thing really left is to stare intensely and try to copy old paintings and stuff, been talking to a friend for a bit.

I need to break this thought barrier that 'comfort zone' only refers to subject matter.

fwiw i just did this after i posted that suika because i felt really bad

>>2106706
Simply not enough time put into most of the image. Focus on rendering and adding more detail to the buildings. They are distractingly sloppy

>>2106729
I'll work hard on those during the rendering/detailing... mainly getting the values down at the moment. Thanks

>>2106714
I assumed that was part of her design but yeah I'll fix that too to create a better impression from the get-go. Thanks

>>2106410
>paper that doesn't buckle or bleed with wet markers
http://www.amazon.com/Copic-Marker-Sketchbook-Inches-SKBK9X12/dp/B002NLGMUG
I used to just use copy paper, but now I'm hooked on sketchbooks. Only thing that sucks is the 9x12 doesn't fit in my scanner.

>>2106379
>makes all the shitty angles and cover your art in line
Ya that was me. I was trying out some stuff earlier. I'm over it now

>>2106382

>>2106727
nice!

>>2106706
>i dont know anymore
shut up. draw/paint with confidence.
or else you'll get things like >>2106714 where your horns look like poo.

I don't know how to color. He's suppose to be holding a lighter. If the light source is orange, how should it look on a purple surface?

Also, pure black for super dark areas = verboten?
