Well I don't think that's much to bitch about. Life is long. But it also depends on what we're qualifying as "great" practice. I've say "overtime" is a good measurement, that is, at least 56 hours a week (8 hours a day, 7 days a week). If that's not enough to see good gains every month of practice, I don't know what is.

Trying out a comic coloring workflow

I feel like my construction is still off, but I can't tell exactly what or why, any advice appreciated.

>>2811192
Got you friendo; the ears.

Ears are too high on the detailed shot; the bottom on the ears lines up with the tip of the nose. Even with the angle the ear needs to be a bit further down I think.

>>2811197
Fuck, youre absolutely right. Well, back to the drawing board I go

>>2811149
basically trying the same thing. This isn't production quality, but trying out the balance between pattern/lines and colors. What do you think?

>>2811197
I dont think the case is about the ear the hair how its drawn doesnt fit the face position.

>>2811207
feel very faint, in a non confident way. I think it's from the lack of edge variation. It's either soft or flat. The shadow cast by the character should at the very least be a hard edge, maybe the folds in the robe as well.

Good drawing though.

>>2811207
Holy shit that's one of the best things I've seen here. Blog?

>>2811211
You put it in words quite well, that's what I have felt but cant put my finger on it. Thanks, I need to try it out.

>>2811213
Is this a new meme?

>>2811224
No I'm being serious

>>2811225
:^)

>>2811213
I wouldn't put my money on that.
lworbit.tumblr.com

I'm trying to reach the -20°C atmosphere, so yellow had to go. Hard edges really do make difference, even if it's not that precise.

>>2811227
>>2811224
Is this a new meem : ^ )

Men aloft and bear away! Set a course for shitpost bay


I meant to finish it honest master

>>2811242
Oh so you're the anon who drew that forest-bear a while back, amazing work

>>2811207
Try inking those shading lines, it's been done before and it looks good.

Can someone pls tell me what they are doing here so I can copy pls? thnx

>>2811115
pretty good but her left hand is as long as her head

Does anyone else feel like they live in a world of npcs

I know it's not a new thought but really

>>2811260
Really good point, I've been trying that but totally forgot. It's even easier to work on, once there's clear areas like I did this earlier.

>>2811255
Thanks, I just hate that I've gotten some commissions and its always that damn bear. I can't find it visually interesting anymore.

More character designs. I'm happy with the cat, probably gonna revisit all three one more time.

>>2811270
thanks m8, last thing I did was making that hand smaller, somehow I still left it with wrong proportions
I should take rests, but if I do I just quit :/
resized head as it was pretty small too

More character designs, happy with the cat, still gonna do one more pass for all three.

did the last one just get banned because of furry or was it just deleted? That is ludicrous.

>>2811283
I deleted it because I forgot to resize it.

>>2811283
okay nevermind its back. My browser must have bugged

>>2811254
Good intentions are worthless:
She's way too skinny and the pose is really stiff in general; the sword is supposed to be on the ground but it's not even close; the hair looks like its coming out of the hat; the pistol is too shortand at an awkward angle (it almost looks like she's aiming at her own foot)

Cmon anon, put some back into it, cause there's potential but it feels like you just gave up.

>>2811210
Both actually. The hair was placed haphazerdly

>>2811289
[spoiler] I give up every time

thanks tho

>>2811289
I would've agreed about most of what you said just a minor point though, a derringer is very short

>>2811282
And some sketches

>>2811304
I forgot how good Lady and the Tramp is, also here's another sketch page.

>>2811297
Doesn't really have he overall dimensions of a derringer though so again my fault. Wasn't really thinking anything in particular I just drew

>>2811289
rly tho, thanks for your time

Redpill me on clean-up, paisanos. At this rate I'll never crawl out of the cringe thread.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdyW2WwARZc

>>2811333
I can't even tell who is trolling who anymore

Maybe I post another face.

>>2811363
The hair makes no fucking sense.

>>2811367
Thanks m8! Now do you have "artistic" input or?

Meaning what's you are point?

>>2811369
How? how do you not see it???

>>2810981
>I doubt this heavily, it seems to take much longer. 2 years of great practice appears to be the minimum.


Maybe. I'm just comparing to my own pace.
The earliest thing I have on my computer, which is from around when I started drawing seriously-ish, is from july 2014. Before that I had only done school notebook doodles, starting sometime in 2013.

So lets say I've been drawing for 2.5 years, with what I would call very questionable work ethic (until recently, and even then it's not great) and I'd say I'm around the level of the picture that we talked about in the previous thread. (pic related).

>>2811373
I see exactly what you do m8. now tell me what point you wished me to bring across that i did not which I attempted to?

>>2811363
Okay I can tell you watched a lot of Zim once upon a time, but for christ's sake take a step back and look at that.

All the shiny hair brushes in the world can't replace construction. If were working in multiple layers I suggest going back and doing some serious construction on the face; like, break it down really hard especially the eye size, placement and design. I especially suggest also working the hair in layers; consider what each part of the hair is doing relative to all the others.Those weird spurs on the side don't follow very well, even if you were going for yugioh hair.

You can still go for the gnarly fire eyes and shit, but make sure it makes sense before going whole hog on the extras.

Remember there's a difference between realism and solid construction. Getting wild and sloppy is not the same as making stylistic choices.

>>2811363
The swoopping line at the bottom and the two pointy strands on the (bottomish) left makes no sense.

>>2811363
it's time to duel

>>2811376
See
>>2811377

>>2811377
I know Im going to reveal some things i wish not to in saying this; but I've never watched one episode of zim.(I think you mean that zim the invader show or whatnot) I have to think about the rest of what you said, but for the most part it is just playing around(really, i made no plans before this drawing).

>>2811379
Swooping points, yeah, I think you mean how the hair ends. I don't know what to say other than it is a one off drawing, so if you have a point about that in particular then i'll listen, otherwise, it's just a doodle so, as far as i'm concerned random, even negative results are positive in the short term, anyway, disregarding pop culture atm, I like what I have done in this. ...I'm sure this isn't the end of this ~ - anon

>>2811380
FUCKING lets then! enough of this ic banter who are you and lets doodle/duel!!!

>>2811385
If you're not interested in listening don't post

>>2811385
Dude, if you're done sucking off your ego you should look around, nobody else is lining up to get you off.

You've been giving good advice and more than a little well intentioned ribbing. /ic/ is intended to give necessary and harsh critique for artists to improve.

This isn't your deviant art and it's sure as hell not gaia. We're here to git gud or die trying and if you don't wanna, then don't waste everyone's time. I have shitty anime doodles to get better at and I don't have time to respond to all of your bait.

Just getting in some lineart practice.

>>2811242
Much better!

>>2811333
what the fuck are you doing. Stop cleaning up something that is already clean.

>>2811394
Woah there, check out the wrist on the wand hand, its pretty noodley. Otherwise its pretty ok, maybe the forehead is coming out bit too much.

>>2811392
I'm really sorry, I didn't ever think I'd be getting this lecture. I'll try my hardest to listen in the future. I'm a little drunk atm so I'm not sure what you are referring to but at the worst it takes me til tomorrow to see a point an anon was making to try to correct. At any rate, I'm very sorry you felt you had to say this, I'll try to do better in the future, I promise. I mean to come here with no pride, but If I do, thank you for pointing it out(really).
Thanks anon

>>2811399
Also, If I am able, I'd take every single piece of crit here to heart, even if I thought It unnecessary etc. Really, I'm not here to troll. I really don't even know why some people think that sometimes... so .. sorry ;_;

>>2811405
fuck off to deviant art faggot

>>2811405
If you really can't see why you come of as autistic, ask a friend to explain it to you.

>>2811408
Sure, If you tell me why. I was trying to respond to anon honestly. Is there a problem other than that?

>>2811410
A friend... you know what... you are my friend, now what? You want to explain some shit to me?

>>2811410
I have one friend in life. Period. They can't. Can you? Or do you just not want to?

>>2811410
fuck you shithead

>>2811414
Well then ''friend'', i don't know if you will understand this but i'm going to give it a shot, there is like 3-5 anons here trying to explain to you that hair doesn't work like that,
hair doesn't sprout from other hairs, it sprouts from the scalp.

We are trying to help you by saying that you need to work on your fundamentals, as in proportions and construction of the face.
Even if you do draw anime the same rules apply, now what you are doing is something extremely cringe worthy, yet somehow you don't see it.
We would expect a normal person to understand from just saying ''it's fucked, fix it'' or ''it's off'' or even '' loomis'' that you would take a step back and look at your work,
then compare it to the end results you would like, in this case it would be an anime girl.
I hope this somehow makes sense to you, make sure to read it few more times slowly before answering.
- friend

>>2811427
yeah, I wasn't being proud about the art,
(I know I have a shitload to work on, why is this even a point of discusssion, really?) I understand what you said, that was somewhat beyond the point for me, but I won't try to defend myself at this point. At any rate, thanks for giving me this much.

>>2811433
>I know I have a shitload to work on, why is this even a point of discusssion, really?
Because you're on a board called "artwork/CRITIQUE?"

>>2811282
cute.
give the dog floppy ears, not pointed ones.
she looks more like a bear atm

>>2811439
YES, faggot retard, and that's not what anon had engaged me in discussion over. Seriously dude... if you don't get my point atm, just leave it be and watch. It's not over my shitty art(?).

>>2811427
Why do I always have to explain shit so in depth for you idiots. Yes I see all you are saying. I'm not one of these newposters that doesn't listen. Can everyone actually say something without having some fucking emotion tied to it? really? It would go a long way towards establishing your authority if you could..

>>2811264
Jesus christos why am i here, seriously, apart from trolling with the best

>>2811475
Seriously, someone tell me what to do and i'll try

>>2811417
Good god, I hope I wasn't being like that when I posted my bad 4chan girl attempt. I tried using Clip studio to sketch but looking back on it I should've just done what I'm doing now and use Sai for fluid sketching/occasional inking and Clip Studio for rendering/sharp feathered lines. I'm still trash, but I would say that it's much more enjoyable and faster to draw, and I usually get better results.

>>2811503
The fuck are you even trying to say turtleneck

>>2811489
loomis

>>2811506
Lol just shitposting here man. I'm still studying fundamentals in my spare time but I occasionally like to troll once and awhile :P

>>2811503
do you even see that hand on your drawings, mr supergenious?

>>2811395
What do you mean? not him but isn't the right just lineart?

>>2811518
Do you not know what shitposting? It's obviously something I shambled together for the lulz.

>>2811524
What shitposting is*

>>2811508
I woulda nevar figured... huh. Imma havta hurt myself tonight for this. tx anon.

When you can come back with something a bit nuanced, I'll really appreciate it.

Cheers~

>>2811510
OH! then carry on my good lad...

>>2811531
you draughtsmanship is incredibly basic and naive, have fun cranking out your shit style

>>2811535
Finally someone whose willing to go out on a limb to say something, yeha, I'll admit my bro, I'm just a newb. I'm trying to maintain what little fun i find in it yet, but I'll try to further myself as an artist at the same time. thanks really, for maybe the first post i've believed in from here. cheers luv~

>>2811535
That wasn't me but I appreciate it anyways. I'll get there eventually, don't worry about it man.

>>2811542
Counter trolling detected

>>2811549
wat? but you're not me...

>>2811552
Shit my cover is blown

>>2811550
the hell does this even mean? honestly fuck this site jfc who can keep up

>>2811489
If youre asking for a critique, put more effort into your work. And if by any chance this is actual effort then stop using stylisation as a crutch.
The hair looks like a helmet, and to top it of the right side is completely nonsensical, in general everything feels rushed and just thrown together randomly.

>>2811549

This is all very confusing for me. Rest assured,, when i get a blerg, no answers will remain un... uh answered. derp
>>2811556

>>2811557
Feels bad man, feels bad. I think this thread is basically trashed now.

>>2811557
Well, it was kinda thrown together randomly, but I'll have to admit, I really wasn't looking for crit here. I mean I just kinda did it, it was a doodle. .... I really wish someone just once would say they knew what I was after, but i spose thats a different story/ but noone seems to know even what I was after so, anyway, thanks for your time, I really appreciate it. I'll think about all this etc.

>>2811557
>>2811561
do you two even want to guess what emotion i was after or am i really that far off?

>>2811566
Bring me that crippling disappointment and cringe boi

>>2811503
Robotanon, love your work. Keep at it.
Keep drawing cute girls too. Although work on your dudes so they look cool too.

>>2811568
p-pardon? ^w^

>>2811535
This was recommended by thread OP. I think this is the source of the bad draughtsmanship sir.

>>2811568
Oh, uh just in case, cringe was not the emotion i was going for, thanks though for trying.

What artists are you looking to with this style? I could probably find you some things you'd appreciate as it has potential.

>>2811578
the hell are you saying (please)

>>2811584
Are you trolling? The draftsmanship looks like shit.

Why does noone say this for me... why do i have to fight

>>2811587
all right im done here ok

they were haphazardly copied from photos, are flat and distorted. The only thing they have going is rhythm, and that is barely above average.

the guy is a joke anime artists

>>2811651
>why don't you ask him

already

>anime artists

meme artists

>>2811333
Maybe I should have considered using a brush that was thinner than the one I used for the sketch to begin with; getting closer I think.

>>2811395
The image on the left is a sketch; it's not overly messy yeah but certainly not clean. I'm just trying to translate that kind of a sketch into clean lineart which I'm having a hell of a time figuring out. As shameful as it is I can count the amount of drawings I've taken anywhere near "completion" on one hand so I have no real process or point of reference for how to do it. I think I need to take a closer look at how others make it happen until something sticks.

please have a blog. this is really cute

>>2811569
Aw shucks. Now I really gotta try to improve today.

>>2811659
I actually liked the lines on your sketch, you should've just colored the grays and set the darker lines to multiply

>>2811685
>>enough with the blog memes

So why ask me if you already asked the guy?
And guy is a joke.

There are anons literally giving you PARAGRAPHS of in-depth critique and you're just sitting here going "nuh-uh."

Fuck off

I'm going to draw cute boy-os someday

proportions

more proportion

>>2811784
post your art outside of /ic/. even i get asked for blog

>>2811881
The way your lines are slick just feels nice to look at.
>>2811882
I think this might be the first time I've seen you do a full body render, although that one on the right is way funny. The size of that head just completely throws it all off. Keep it up!

>>2811884
thanks! i always thought my lines were boring.

i noticed that about the head...not sure what i was thinking when i did that at first >_<

>>2811714
Should've indeed, I literally don't know what the hell I'm doing in the slightest so whatever other tips you have are most appreciated.

>>2811783
As much as I'd like to just rest on my laurels with the sketch, that's the kind of fat assed textured brush I love to use that's kept me in this sketching-only comfort zone the entire time I've been drawing. The unevenness of it and its gritty texture has a certain inherent appeal that I find very addicting but I don't see it being suitable for finished linework or coloring really. I just need to figure out some way to go about the tie-down cleanup process that doesn't yield me the kind of down-syndrome results I usually get i.e. >>2811659

I'm just going to go look at animation cels or something. There's got to be some trick to it that I've been blind to or maybe I'm overthinking it. In either case I suck gargantuan nuts at this and I need to fix that come hell or high water.

I don't have many finished work so I'm quite happy with how this turns out, although it certainly could be better

>>2811946
Use wider value range.
I agree tho, it's pretty nice.

>>2811946
You can also try to colour lines for better effect. Try it.

>>2811950
not same anon but how do you color the lines to make it visually appealing like based on what do you pick the color of the lineart?

>>2811583
Well, I'm not after anyone elses style, but I do realize that some things come out of subconscious. There's some solutions that resembles Bill Watterson and Moebius, but mostly I look after painters like Gallen-Kallela, Hugo Simberg and few russian masters.

But honestly, I'm quite new what comes to comics or illustrated novels, so I've been just working on my own.

Rate

>>2811998
There is nothing original about this character, if you are trying to make a the basic ''damsel in distress'' villain try to make him more interesting.
Also, is he pregnant? is he a magician? Like what is going on with his body, is the jacket tucked in between his buttcheeks??
I rate it, has been done million times before do something original with the concept/10

22 years isn't a waste, right?

Thanks mate, I was being somewhat cautious with my value but I guess I could post process it slightly to fix it. I have a hard time trying to change the line on this piece though, maybe on my next piece I could try to use a darker colour on the lines

Good stuff

>>2812091
Dang I can feel the pressure

Loving the shapes, try to see how far you can push your style, like maybe adding more anatomy and rendering to the body parts.
Keep drawing and keep improving.

>>2812253
I feel like I'm being naive here.
lworbit.tumblr.com

Did some more color tests, I'm leaning towards really harsh 3-tone palette, since it has nice feel and it's easier to push pages. I think I can still get some feel to it, if I just keep hatching some areas by hand.

Interesting things happened, when I mixed those two versions. I would like to do more like this, but it's just too much work.

>>2812391
I fucking new it, i've been seeing your stuff around here and it's pretty nice, but your art has somehow melancholic feel to it.
It all makes sense now, nice work tho keep it up.

>>2812391
3rd palete isn't close enought
change typography or kill yourself, where are you going with italic serif for a fucking comic

>>2812413
Melancholy is like a virus around here. :^)

>>2812439
I'm thinking to use italic for thoughts, but still leaning towards handwriting.

Fuckin' destroyed.

polished turd or not?

>>2813041
People stopped making daggers shaped like that probably 2000 years ago. Are you going for that effect?

>>2813041
Polished turd is a meme, but I like it.

>>2813043
well its supposed to be a cartoony sword, but i see how it looks like a dagger now.

>>2813050
oh I see that now. I think it's the rambo style line that does it for me.

at the very least (IMO) make it bronze since you get that shape by casting rather than forging, and increase the size of the pommel to compensate for the weight of the blade.

>>2812199
That's pretty nice anon!

>>2813191
what school do you go to so i can know not to go there

>>2813202
i think you missed the "unfinished" and the fact that this is for a class, which means I'm still a student/still learning

proportions from diff angles

same proportion practice, but just 1

>>2813210
the poses are kinda stiff, especially outside of the generic stock "porn" poses.

>>2813212
someone in the porn thread said that too. maybe i use too many straight lines?

>>2813221
it isn't the lines necessarily, it's the limbs. They all fall in a way that feels very "straight". Not much flow to it.

>>2813207
you missed the fact that there are absolutely no fundamentals in this image, which means that whoever teaches you did not teach fundamentals and that you don't draw without them.

E.g. you don't start this type of scene without your VPs.

I love cancerous backgrounds

hola

>>2813374
Think of the planes of the ribs down to her abs and the pelvic area. Does it have to be a flat? At first glance the strings shows that the abs area is flat. I think to able to express that she's bending, you have to curve the strings somehow wrapping around her waist.

Also, I'll redline this since it's Rokka no Yuusha. Nice taste.

I'll give you a 2/10 for the rare Rokka no Yuusha art.

>>2813467
nope

>>2813590
I like it, blog?

>>2813621
Is this the birth of a new meme :^)

workin on lighting

>>2813636
looking nice

Something I drew on Twitter. I'm going back to practicing now.

>>2813850
blog?

>>2813850
blog?

>>2813875
no bully, anon

>>2813878
>>2813875
Are you guys trolling or are you being serious

>>2813891
don't let them meme you.

maybe i should post this here too

>>2813902
Those sideviews don't work, noses are huge and the head shape isn't consistent, cute design tho.
i like the face on the fullbody one better than on the rendered ones.

>>2813906
Thanks, i tried to make her look more like the full body but I really didn't know how to draw that from other angles

>>2813911
I had to give it a try and it turns out square face is pretty hard to do in side view, top left is best one i guess but it differs too much from your style.
Sorry couldn't be much help :T

>>2813891
Yeah figured as much.

>>2813627
I have no idea what I did wrong, I just wanted to see more from the artist.

>>2813850
Triple check your anatomy, cause everything is out of place and disjointed, and I mean it literally.
The eyes are overdetailed compared to everything else, the nose is nonexistant, the face is too large and flat, the hair looks like a bunch of plastilina strands, the head is disjointed from the body, the collarbone is not placed properly, the chest makes no sense with the hip and waist, the hands are too large, and everything has too many round shapes that have no reason to be there.

Next time post it before you start cleaning up, that way it'd be easier to point out where you're going wrong, instead of just making a huge list of flaws.

>>2814051
K will do. It was good practice though.

Not sure if I should ink this

I just realized the mouth might interpret a little weird in this pic. Yes, It's open.

>>2814142
yeah sorry I deleted it because it was too large haha

>>2814144
The hand on the right seems...odd. The elbow seems to be slightly too high

>>2814170
thanks, I totally winged it because all ive been drawing all my life is people standing, gotta practice a shit ton

>>2814174
I feel your pain anon. /ic/ makes art seem harder than it is but just doing 1-3 hours a day of solid practicing and studying will really help. Every day I come back to my previous sketches I can see the improvement. Doing something daily for a couple hours is much better than going all out for 7-12 hours on the weekends trust me.

How's my style coming along?

>>2814327

thoughts?

this is an OC character i ivented i call him sturdy stake

>>2812391
you should do reflective light hitting his back all that snow would make it so there would be light hitting him from behind pretty strongly

not sure if intentional or part of your characters backstory but you drew spot on cerebral palsy limbs

>>2814327
How's it going hammerhead? I was the guy who had trouble with cheeks.

>>2814401
Im laughing, well back to the literal drawing board then.

>>2814327
Hey how's it going hammerhead?

>>2814406
Just doing some color for fun

>>2814388
Flat, but the pose you chose is also very weird. You wanted the inner thighs thing, but had her hand in this limp wristed motion, yet gave her a confident look.

>>2814402
OH NO ITS U AGAIN! I is not amused by your cheeky comment

>>2814446
Oh wow, thanks for that. Might have tried more than I could chew.

>>2814454
>Might have tried more than I could chew.
that's stepping out of your comfort zone, the best way to improve.

Trying to learn how to draw like my art idol.

I spent the last few hours breaking down a drawing he did and redrawing it myself, but the anatomy feels so fucky that I can no longer tell if the original art's anatomy is fucky or if I'm just messing it up. Honestly one of the hardest poses I've ever attempted, but I want to improve.

I know the legs and arms are shit; mainly looking for help with her really archy torso.

>>2814461

Are you the new redjuice guy? What ever happened to old redjuice guy?

I also copied redjuice, and I always get uncanny faces. Eventually I just gave up.

>>2814463
>Chicken scratch the picture
You got the hair nicely done though.

>>2814473
Haha, I'm definitely not the old guy since I've posted here maybe 3-4 times in the last year. I'm the one who asked for some of his artbooks in the artbook thread two days ago though.

His style is really hard to emulate, I think. Some of his stuff even makes me wonder how anatomically correct it is, considering how slender he draws everyone...

>>2813927
No that's pretty helpful, thanks

>>2814868
haha no, that nose doesn't work at all also that mouth is tiny.

>>2814868
kawaii

>>2814875
Not him but
>nose
Explain. It's the only thing that looks cutely drawn
>Mouth
Yes I was going to point that out myself, and the eyebrows are fucked. And the eyes look off balanced from the face for some reason.

>>2815092
That looks like a pig nose

>>2815092
Satsuki has sharp features, so it would make sense to make the nose sharp and what you have there is an upturned pig nose

>>2815105
>>2815120
I've noticed a *lot* of people on this board seems to have a huge hate boner for "pig noses". It simply depends on the face, but noses comes in different shapes, those "pig noses" being one of them. I don't see people do it enough, quite annoying.

However for the character in question, if the artist must conform to a closer to the source image, I'd agree the nose needs to be thinner.

>>2814868

head practice

i dont usually do stylized work but this came out kinda okay... any tips on what to do different next time?

>>2815158
I would define the vertical part of the nose more either with lines or shading. As it is she looks like she has the old man alcoholic's nose

>>2815163
this is a really slight change to post again, but what do you think of this... i want to keep the bridge subtle and don't want too many lines in it

i agree she had a lumpy nose before. I think if other parts were rendered as much as her nose it would've looked more natural but maybe not it mighta just been over rendered.

>>2814868
so moe

>>2815216

Am I doing it right?

Hey, I scribbled shit

>>2815248
yes you did

>>2815216
hnnnnnnggg my fking dick

>>2815173
The hair looks unsettlingly similar to the skin tone. Actually the hair in general I'm not sure what going on with, like where's her neck?

>>2814453
Lel I see what you did there

So I've been doing some more studying and I am enjoying the New Master's Academy Youtube videos, especially the videos like the 3 hour head tutorial and Glen vilppu's demos. I really like Glenn's approach, it seems very natural should I study him or not?

>>2811363
nice rendering
over designed tho

jfmsu fambrino

>>2813401
>makes it worse

>>2813891
they are taking the piss m8
you are terrible

learn the fundamentals before coloring/rendering

She has a missplaced face
the space between the mouth and upper part of the face is so big, you could put it for rent
the size of a palm should be similar to the face

ps: sorry for the half-assed edit. hope it got the point across tho

.>>2815330
Thanks for trying I guess

>>2815333
would have made a better edit, but I'm on my laptop and dont have a big ass display in here

>>2815336
I think another anon already answered my question a while back so you didn't really have to do that

>>2815341
That picture I drew for Twitter is about a month or so old I think when I was just winging most of my proportions and I was just getting the hang of digital art. I knew something was off about it so I decided to post it here so I could learn what I did wrong

Thank you guys, I hope this is better

>>2815349
AAYYYYY

Perspective practice, watchu guys think?

>>2815349
Why'd you delete it? It looks better and more on-model now.

>>2815341
>>2815344
Alright, lets see that improvement then.
r/ing your latest pic

>>2815365
face still looks like there is some room for improvement.
let anon fix it first.

>>2815365
Sorry the right arm was missing and right hand was a bit more fucked up, also thanks for the feedback

it's been a while
i hope my faces look better. i'll study more anatomy soon. advice appreciated

>>2815372
is it just me or this part in particular seems kinda off

>>2815379
that line art tho

>>2815386
is it bad? ;_;

>>2815387
define good

>>2815379
Is this your sketch?

>>2815398
no.

>>2815391
anything that isn't shit...
>>2815398
y-yes? you're confusing me anon

>>2815406
It's too rough anon. Try turning down the opacity of the layer you did your "linework on" and go over the lines you want in smooth strokes. Don't use your wrist to draw long lines in multiple strokes, only use your elbow and shoulder to do them in one try

>>2815367
Expect to be disappointed. My tablet pens broke over Christmas so for awhile I couldn't practice digital art for a week or 2.

>>2815362
Too many grlz and too little perspective, unless the only thing you wanted to practice is girls in perspective. If thats the case try using more extreme angles/povs, cause most of them look like your standard isometric view

>>2815461
Also, before you ask, no that hand isn't next to the spiky hair guy isn't wrong. I just drew a hand for practice and forgot to move it in it's own corner

>>2815472
that hand that is next to*

>>2815476
Stop spilling your spaghetti and practice more.
Avoid drawing anime, stylizing acts as a crutch.

>>2815382
its the other eye thats too far out, and that one thats too far in because the other one is too far out

>>2814868
LOL DUDE, FUNDAMENTALS

>>2813636
best one in weeks

>>2815461
>My tablet pens broke over Christmas so for awhile I couldn't practice digital art for a week or 2.
I'm a poorfag mexican that drew in a used iphone 4 and a sketchpad for weeks.
There is no "Couldn't draw" excuse.
take a fucking pencil and some paper.

>>2815423
is this better...? i need to practice coloring, i think i messed up the light source.
i wish my art was passable ;___________;

>>2815510
How the fuck does one draw on a iphone decently

>>2815500
LOL DUDE, CRITIQUE BETTER

Fuck off with the whoring, you know this isn't as shit. Go ask for hugs somewhere else.

The nostril is a bit too high and on the right of the nose, it changes it's perspective so that the nose is pointing right.
Just a quick edit

NEW uh thread >>2815842

>>2815309
The most pointless statement

>>2815843
This one might be over bump limit but it's still only page 4 and there's room for still images.
Almost saged to save bumps huh
