That's not /beg/ tier...
>>2865641
It looks like you're starting to get an idea of how volumes work, but certain areas become too flat. The chest is more of a barrel shape than a flat square. Try focusing on the shape of the shadows to help you out with form and correct proportions if you still want to work with value. You should get a ref, too.

Decent gesture though.

>>2865650
are you high? >>2865641 is absolutely beg tier

>>2865652
not that there is that much better content in this thread. 60-70% the stuff posted here is around that level or worse. Thats how it feels like at least. Beg tier is even worse than this.

>>2865646
neat.

>>2865664
Functionally connecting your visor to the sights of your gun sounds like a nightmare. I do like the concept of having extra legs to support the weight of a weapon though.

>>2865664
That looks both terrible and impractical. I know mechs arent realistic, but they have to look somewhat functional, Same thing for exosuits

I think my perspective is getting better, but not quite there. I feel like the stairs and horns aren't correct

>>2865692
nigga use a ruler look at those stairs

>>2865687
yeah now that you mention it, it's not very practial, just thought it would look cooler. the main idea was a man portable .50 cal on exo-skeleton legs but then i thought about ammo and stuff, it would simply be too much weight imbalance so i added some support hind legs and a power source. think i'll make some changes though.

Reposting here.

Anything that can be fixed here? Also I tried coloring it and it came out super boring/flat. I feel like I've been having this issue for years now.

Also posting some sketches I did yesterday.

>>2865699
The stairs are wrong because of their design not because of crooked lines.
>>2865692
Stairsteps are wider than they are tall. Your perspective is okay, but if you want to use 1 point perspective the vanishing point has to be in the center of the layout, if it is to the side like this there should be another vanishing point to the far right outside the canvas.
Use your phone, go out and take some photo references so you can get architectural proportions right.
The characters are nicely designed and well constructed, but you need to clarify the connection surface between the ground and the characters; especially on the priestess's knees and the left wolf's ass. I can help to draw a small square beneath sitting characters to get this sharp.

I changed the rapier

your character is bent backwards. your legs do not match the upper body. fix that and don't forget to fix the right side of your belt accordingly.

i recommend keys to drawing, then drawabox/peter han's courses.

>>2866489
Thanks for the feedback. I've been going through Perspective Made Easy but I still don't really understand the concept of multiple vanishing points - like the stairs are supposed to be curving into a spiral, so does each step have a different vanishing point when it rotates to a slightly different position? If so, do the different vanishing points share any relation aside from all being on the horizon line?

Sorry if I'm not making much sense, I'm retarded at perspective

>>2866900
I have a fart fetish. I think it'd be awesome if the character farted due to her pose and the size of her posterior.

I have now explained the joke.

Seeing how it's like to layer the gouache.

>>2865785
It's the way you draw faces and muscles, and your linework.

>I can't even recognize my own work if it's old enough

It's ok I do that all the time. Sometimes I'll find an old file and think "damn, I drew that? I WAS GOOD. Oh wait I didn't draw that, someone else did nvm lol"

I've been doing art for about 2 years so maybe this belongs in /beg/, but I want to know how to get a more professional and comfortable feel to my pieces.

Please bully

trying to work on colors and stuff. any advice?

>>2867083

lineart is pretty inconsistent, try not to chicken scratch, at least not on what will become your final result

muscles need more work, both construction of them and shadding

perspective is off, bottom and a top parts have different perspetive

metal parts doesn't have too much effort put into it, it looks like you just drew them out of your head, try using references more often

study basic shapes, draw a box has pretty good exercises

>>2866552
now the center of gravity feels wrong, like hes gonna fall backwards.
bad redline desu

>>2867101
Yeah I definately have problems with all of those

With traditional tools I care a lot about line quality but translating that to digital has been the most frustrating thing and I don't know what to do about it

>>2867123
Wow that's great!! You actually listened to my advice!! It's definitely much much better than the first sketch, the only thing that seems a little off is that hand, but other than that good job.

>and then she farts!

beat you to it

>>2865633

>>2867095
How is megumins shirt getting light behind that cape

>>2867143
Thanks a Anon, I will revise her hand before flat coloring it

>>2867123
A few major things. You want contracting forms, so I tilted her shoulders against her hips to give a more dynamic pose (also since she appears to be resting on her left hand it makes sense). Also I changes up the horns to be more dynamic, its just looks better if there are forms overlapping. Also, since her butt is resting on a surface, you want it to gain mass at the bottom where its being pushed up by the ground, and less volumous where it is hanging.

>inb4 firez fanboys nitpick

>>2867123

is that you spaghetts, u doing redlines now, shitty nigga, i prefer firez original version. fuck off lmao

I need advices on digital painting pleaaase

>>2867359

You should probably spruce up on fundamentals before jumping into painting desu, however I'll still give some help.

easiest way I find is.

1st start with a sketch/refined sketch, then layout base colors with no/little value change, and it keep it in midrange (not too saturated dark etc, and decide the range from the background). Acquire your lightsource, and start attributing light to the piece by overlay/small hue changes. This is the hard part, but you can also handle structuring form with AO and blur/cutting edges based on form shadows etc. Then it's just moving on from there.

The best advice is tackle the piece at large, you don't want to just do details because you lose focus (like you did). Tons of small brush strokes and weird unclear light direction that ultimately does nothing for the viewer and takes away from whatever you're doing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPRk2AxPK78

This guys method is pretty solid, however he is using Painter.

requesting help for pose/everything
also being someone who rarely attempts anything beyond anime face doodles, not sure about composition?

>>2867111
just gtfo.

>>2867359
I can't identify your light source and your values need work.

>>2867209

you soiled her face dude

>>2867352

that's cool

>>2867149
I'd be ok with it. Mind if I use this pose for my own fart fetish drawing?

>>2867352
Basil, is that you?

how do i fix the best car?

>>2867869

I can't really tell the perspective due to the back of the car. I mean I can, but the way the wheel on the back is almost popping out of the car is tossing alot of it off. You could also add more noticeable complexity to the car, like show the door/opening for the engine. Looking nice otherwise.

>>2867850

Who?

>>2867395
Don't be mad, it's just a matter of rotating the redlines a little bit, the legs of the redline do look better.

>>2867260
>>2867318
>>2867346
>>2867845
>complaining over a stylistic change in a redline
Also firez faces are terrible the redline made it way less creepy

>>2867899
wtf are you high or something? the face on the redline literally looks like a man! Can't blame you if your into that shit but seriously come on don't you have eyes??!?

>>2867904
Androgynous is way better than stiff bug eye ayy lmao
I never said his face was right its just a different approach which makes it look less creepy

Doodles, trying to get better any tips?

I'm currently trying to copy Yoshinari and Krenz

>>2868111
You would but you won't, you would rather prefer to draw like yourself.

>>2868110
Sorry, I don't have one here's another page from today though

>>2868118

>>2868118
Do you have any tutorials?

>>2868123
Have you at least drawn a figure with a hair and face or do you just draw faceless baldies all day?

Current wip of Osomatsu-san x Texas Chainsaw Massacure crossover. I'm not really happy with the coloring progress. I use Sai...any suggestions on how to make it more appealing?

>>2867209

Thanks anon, I don't know if I will be able to implement those changes (the horns design is very tempting but the face isn't my thing tbqh) but I appreciate the remarks ...not so much the "fuck u firez" because besides making shitty art idk wth i did to you

Finally layed down flat colors and some shadows on pic related.

>>2868354
How many hours a day do you dedicate to art Firez

>>2868354
You're now using a PC right? That looks very different than your other pieces which I assumed you did on your phone.

>>2868356
Has much as I can, Around 6 to 8 on weekends and 2 hours on weekdays

>>2868358
Yes, coloring is being done on a surface pro 2 and photoshop cs6, I almost never do linework on photoshop, the iPad Pro and even the note 4 feel way better for line work imho.

I still use my note 4 quite considerably since it allows me to draw during work hours

>>2868395
Between the iPad and note 4 which would you recommend to someone?

>>2868395
How would you compare the Surface and the Ipad Pro. I was thinking of picking up the Surface but I heard it had latency issues. From the looks of your work tho it doesn't seem to be too much of a hindrance.

>>2868399
That's an odd comparison but if you can go with the iPad pro totally, in my case is the best digital drawing device I've used, granted that the palm rejection isn't as good as the Wacom hardware I used (SP2, Note 4) everything else is just better: non parallax, no lag, you can use the outer areas of the screen, etc... for the palm rejection thing you can just use one of those drawing gloves and the problem is solved.

Some remarks:

Get the 12.9, not ony the extra screen will allow you to use references comfortably with the split view but this model also has 4gb of ram.

The apple pencil isn't included and it's quite expensive for a stylus: 99usd,

I would also strongly encourage you to get a matte screen (this isn't only due to the texture, using glass screen protectors will make your lines wobble madly) and the UAG case with the stand.

Finally just get ProCreate, at 5usd is a steal, closest thing to Photoshop on a mobile OS

>>2868410:

The SP2 was quite adequate for em until I got the iPad pro, you have to consider that by now the SP2 is quite outdated, the screen is just 10.6" , it has a very narrow 16:9 aspect ration
and the bundled stylus has an awful parallax, if you buy the wacom bamboo pen for the SP2 it gets a lot better in that regard though.

You will want to acquire a BT keyboard for the shortcuts, there are on screen menus for quick actions but the screen is so small you don't want to clutter it even more

The HW is still quite capable though, my model has 8gb of ram and a Core i5, I only use A4 canvases and my brushes don't get too big so the stroke latency is honestly not an issue for me, is almost non noticeable even while using several layers (I think the most I've used are 15),

As good as the ipad pro is for drawing (see comment above), Photoshop is still unmatched, if you're considering a single drawing/painting tablet wait for the SP5 (ms is rumored to be working with wacom again) or get a Mobile Studio

The chin is a tad too sharp here (especially for this incarnation of Link), but the detailing of the ear and flower is nice.

>tfw BotW is only 11 days away

>>2868449
Have you ever tried out a Cintiq? I'm curious at how non-dedicated drawing tablets stack up at to that.

>>2868499
Not him but from what I've heard, the Ipad pro will get you pretty good results. The tech it uses is quite different from what wacom uses but it allows them to get a really quick refresh rate, precise tracking and tilt detection. It should be comparable to a tablet. The other stuff like the Surface is usable but it doesn't have the right amount of pressure sensitivity and there is a slight bit of latency that you have to get used to.

I've seen a whole lot of pros using procreate on the ipad pro and they've all said good things about it so that's probably one of the best non-dedicated tablets out on the market atm.

Pic related was done on an Ipad pro

Fucked around with the sketch too much, then I failed at coloring it

>>2868539
On the contrary, I make a lot of shitty drawings on my iPad

Thanks senpai, so make the hips more narrow? here it is without the torpedo blocking it.

The knee is easy for me straight, I can visualize the floating cap and the joints etc. Its bent like that, that really took some time and reference the way it bends.

I'm also really sick so sorry for being long winded.

>>2869184
you must remember that there is a pelvic bone under there, and her flesh is on top of it. the hip size is fine, just the flesh around it lacks knoblyness
something like this maybe
anyway, there's a lot more little things wrong with it but you'll get it in time
some understanding of anatomy in critical areas like the hips and some focus on fast drawings / gesture drawings will do you wonders

cute style

>>2869387
Cute.

Working on a character design that'll be sculpted and set up for a possible rig.
The premise is that he's a secondary AI character in a fighter style game with a gladiator aesthetic. The player plays the main guy, and he gets to choose an ai as his buddy which he can give simple commands (in the story, these guys are basically slaves). This is one of those ai characters, he's a fast guy who runs around swiping/stabbing with his shinguards as he passes the enemy. He stays pretty low to the ground so it especially good against comps that use weapons from higher up. He also carries a rope that he can use to trip up enemies, offer a line that the allied player can use to escape a snare, etc.

I would really appreciate some feedback on the design. The "guy" next to him was an idea for a helmet, would the helmet be better than not, or perhaps a more simplified/open helmet design?

>>2869558
Looking good, I'm sure they'll love it. I really like those little smatterings of ruddy color above her eyelids, and on her nose and cheeks. You've got a real eye for that.

Nothing too serious that warrants alteration for a gift, but that little tangent caused by the contour of her forehead and her hairline could be dealt with pretty easily if you felt like it, and you could also have the pattern on the inside of her overcoat follow the form of the collar on the viewer's right side the same is it does on the opposite. It's kind of hard to explain what I mean I guess but maybe just by pointing it out you'll see what I'm saying-those two lines furthest from her neck I feel should more run up towards the top contour of her collar than off it's side if you know what I'm talmbout. If you don't feel like touching it anymore in either case it looks pretty damn good though, keep it up.

How's your recovery coming by the way?

Compressed version.

>>2869576

Major? Your proportions are all over the place. The chest is way too large ant poorly positioned, the legs as well. The left leg looks dislocated, the right one is too short.
There are other things, like the right hand making no sense given the position of the hilt, but that's small compared to the overall messy anatomy

Sorry m8 I'm afraid I've never touched a Cintiq

>>2870205
You should consider rendering the hair different, also control more the width of your line, knuckles/ top hair contour should almost dissapear considering the light source

>>2868354
I wish I could have used some of those colors, but I was requested to tone down the palette, I also ended up painting opaquely a lot more than I thought, it is still a faster coloring and rendering method than what I use normally

>>2870606
How does one get as good at characters as you Firez

>>2870606
I am so happy for you Firez, now appeal to the masses and learn to jew them like Sakimichan.

armpits are not as intimidating as they seem
though i still have much to learn

>>2870666
You see familiar...but I just can't put my finger on it.

>>2870666
She has gorilla arms, they're not proportional to the torso.

>>2870676
ah you're right, my mistake

>>2867869
mirrors don't line up and the back wheel needs work. front wheel looks good.

Something I did late December (yeah kinda old, but lately I've been more focused on realistic works for school so I don't do my alternative/anime style as much as i'd like).

>>2870727
FUCK forgot to post the pic

you forgot again, bro

server issues i think

>>2869622
What's your process? Do you do a line art version, colour the lines and then start painting? I wanna get into doing similar style rendering.

test

>>2870606
puke

>>28697
Just the milk tea will do it for me, personally.

>>2870832
I have the lines in overlay mode and painted underneath it. There's a little bit of masking among the paint layers to keep things efficient. Now that i look at it, i could do without the lines...

>>2869624
th-thanks! it's pixelnoodle.

Can I bit advice or tips to improve this please? I have class soon, but I'd like to have some constructive criticism to look forward to. I know the anatomy is wonky (like the foot), but I'm still too bad to get it perfectly.

I'm a beginner (yes, I'm trying my best with the sticky) so I won't be able to make it perfect or improve it dramatically, but any baby step advice would be appreciated, thanks!

>>2871034
Alright thanks. I'll experiment with that I suppose. Also nice blog, followed.

>>2870625

Thanks anon. This may sound very corny but read The Art Spirit , I was surprised how many preconceived things I reaffirmed while reading that book, Regarding characters/portraits the book teaches about the concept of "state of being" which should be pursued above every other element, it's one of the reasons why I take a lot of time, use a lot of chiaroscuro/moody shadows, etc...

On a technical level, the book that has helped me the most with anatomy is Anatomy for sculptors, it really instills in your head the shapes of the major muscle groups, their gesture, etc...

>>2870649
Thanks, I would love to live off art not so much for the money but because it pains not being able to dedicate myself full time to it,

started painting >>2867123

>>2871067
your designs and feet/legs are disgusting.

>>2871071
as always plenty of valuable criticism for this guy. Leave him be already. I want him to stay on this thread so I can at least once in a while look at art that isn't complete beginner or straight ugly.

>>2870080
I tried to patch up the anatomy issues mentioned, would appreciate any further input on this

>>2869558
How do you render like this? i adore the style

>>2871104
anatomy =/= proportons bud

>>2871017

>>2871103
Thanks

>>2871290
Some ideas, hope it helps

It's still unpolished but I'm getting there..

>>2868086
need a blog sir

>>2868456
that fucking yaoi chin
is this a joke doodle or are you being serious with that face anatomy?

>>2871365
>pillow shading

>>2871335
so you gave her more fat? pls stop

>>2871533
post your work.

>>2871535
stop

>>2871533
Not him but even if she is very slender there needs to be some minimal amount on mass that was lacking in the original, shapes of the ribcage and left biceps were fixed too.

Also you don't seem to be able to read very well fuck off already

>>2871542
giving her fat is not a good idea. it looks fucking terrible. end of story.

>>2871538
post your work faggot.

>>2871543
You reading comprehension is truly terrible.

You don't draw and you can't even read well enough.

End yourself.

>>2871290
>>2871533
>>2871543
Your idea is shit. No one wants anything anrestic as a design for appeal, period. Learn to adapt, and look at real bodies for one.

>>2871335
What a terrible "redline". Please remember the OP is cartooning. Simplifying anatomy is much harder to do than trying to aim for realism (which you failed on both ends).

>>2865967
shit, i remember drawing the exact generic cringy cliff view when i was 15, word of advise stop that bullshit and just draw from reference and the ocasional imagination drawing just to train your head

>>2867023
I dont get most fetishes but i especially dont understand the fart fetish

>>2871525
made the chin smaller

Found a neat looking pic and just referenced the shit out of it. Going to ink tonight, but open to making minor adjustments if anyone cares.

Also, I just can't color...

before I hate myself even more than I do now, what composition/figure/foreshortening/overall uncomfortable issues do I have right off the bat

>>2872068
t-table guy?

>>2872170
i'm not good enough to pinpoint specifics but his chin looks very small and awkward compared to the rest of the skull

added a simple bg, plus some face and proportions refinements

>>2872068
I really like this

>>2871872
>>2871533

FUCKING LMAO THESE KIDS

>>2871335
you did great kid!

>>2872197
Her left forearm looks like is resting up against her rib right under her boob instead of coming out toward you like in a run pose

>>2871918
Does he only have one eye?

>>2872170
nice leg bruh

Tried to draw something without reference, the perspective is all messed up, probably other things too.

>>2872170
i agree that his face looks kinda weird

i realized i rarely draw my OC,,, and it feels like i put more effort drawing my own things than for other people...

>>2872264
that endless hallway looks sick

>>2868690
in that side view on the bottom left, her head looks way bigger than the rest of her body

>>2871872
Is this a joke?

>>2872068
it always feels like it's been an eternity since the last ink. Some rough parts... and I noticed bad forms all over the place...

Maybe markers tomorrow??

>>2872190
i feel like you are the same anon who keeps trying to talk to me or something...

>>2872197
thanks - I have not drawn in a while and this was the first thing I felt like finishing.

>>2872528
Kairu <3

>>2872528
learn edges and how to render please.

>>2871781
i did't offer an idea dumbshit. im not the poster. giving fat is a shit idea.

>>2872197
your shit is just so... boring and just bad. it reminds me of my highschool drawings. get better taste.

>>2869841
aight i finished

drawing Marco, from Metal Slug

need advice and crit on this.

>>2872603
cool story, but doesnt change the fact that its shit
bitch boi

>>2872680
>I'm contrarian to seem edgy and cool and make people believe my opinion is unique and correct

No, kys.

>>2872537
This is clearly not a finished drawing so why complain about the rendering?
>>2872528
I really like the edges though they seem to thick at some points.

>>2872686
you ok? who pissed in your cheerios? i get that youre trying to act cool n all, but why cant you accept the fact that its shit.

Perspective

>>2872925
Why is the perspective so tight? Is it always like this?

>>2872925
wow someone who actually did it right. not adding retarded amounts of fat and just making it simple. except the perspective is not the same as the original. have to work on that.

>>2872528
thighs dont work like that and the proportions are all fucked. also arms dont look like that either.

>>2872940
>implying the original had any perspective

>>2872943
>things
how professional
and as newb I can't see any glaring mistakes with the proportions other than maybe the size of the head

>>2872953
Not the other anon, but proportions do look all fucked up (but they almost look fucked up on purpouse, like in hentai), and the way her legs are in contact with the tiger doesn't make sense

>>2872943
>>2872946
wow i read things instead of thighs
sry mb

So I bought Clip Studio thanks to the shill in the other thread and did this.

What the nigger fuck Im doing so wrong? Why does it look cheap? What do I need to make it look more pro?

>>2873014
Forgot pic.

>>2872537
the edges are fine. Just cause its not smooth over blended shit all around doesn't mean it's bad.

>>2871246
The tail makes her other buttcheek bit small.

>>2872751
literally a femboi.
It's a girl anon, they have curves no matter how flat they are.

>>2873014
>>2873016
You need to understand what "texture" is. And no, it has nothing to do with realism either. And where the fuck is the lighting suppose to be?

I'm finally seeing myself improving :)

even if it's not terribly significant...

Keep it up brah.
