>>2924932
No money, sadly.

Thought?

>>2924932
You could support our site here by killing yourself tracing faggot.

>>2924935
Wow, seems authentic. I love Amerimanga or Brit-manga.

>>2924965
Ha, thanks. I like the sound of "Germanga", much better wordplay. Have any critiques?

Crit would be appreciated, I have a lot to learn

inch by inch, more blocking

i'd call it bandwagoning but i was waiting for camilla to get a skimpy-ass outfit like this

>>2925121
Cute Luci and great volume on those breasts, but something's up with Camilla's torso to hip region that feel disconnected. I'm excited to see this finished, though.

>>2924935
ultra stiff, work on your floow, the face feels completely detached from the head in the colored image

>>2925079
draw link eating them

>>2925091
not to be mean but why are you posting multiple relatively minor updates to an image in such a small time frame?

still, i notice you're getting some stairstepping in your lines, if you're not using a stabilizer you might want to try lazy nezumi, it has an option that can fix the weird jagginess of lines that were drawn zoomed out even if you choose not to use any of it's actual line stabilization tools. also go through your brushes and make sure the quality settings are set as high as they can go (unless you're running on a slower machine that can't handle them)

>>2925131

its a bad habit, mostly because I take multiple breaks since I do my actual job and use painting as a buffer for when I get side-tracked

I'll check out nezumi. its a problem for sure. thank you for the tips, friend.

>>2925131
>ultra stiff
Me too. Joking aside, how do I fix this? I've heard this exact same word a lot, so I'm curious what you have to say beyond it.

>>2925079
Fingers, my dude. Take a good look, they don't bend like that unless an Italian is trying to send a message back to someone's family.

>>2925186

gestures, gestures, gestures! lines that are fluid and curved create a much more lively doodle

>>2925195
But the age range I'm drawing has little to no fat, so it's just limbs and nice flatness. Limbs don't bend beyond joints. I understand that you probably mean the pose, but I don't see an alternative for "reaching to pull off other kneesock while propped up on elbow".

Does anyone else ever feel like they're a fucking joke of an artist and the good ones you draw are purely by luck?

>>2925195
>>2925206
Curve her spine sideways a bit?

>>2925211
If you feel this way you need to do more studies and get consistant.

>>2925206
It's not about body fat, it's about posing. What you're talking about is surface detail, what we're talking about is how the underlying structure is arranged. Even with a scrawny character, there should be a fluidity to the pose or it won't feel natural.

>>2925218
All right then, I'll finish this one up, have a drink, and try that out on the next loli. Thanks.

hhhh please crit my dva

>>2925234
She looks dead inside. Drop the 'hhhh'.

>>2925234

>>2925242
>>2925243
ARE THESE EVEN CRITIQUES

>>2925245
I don't know about "hhhh", but my picture implies you need to fix the face. I only have Paint for red-lining, so you're fresh out of luck.

>>2925249
the forehead ratio is fine imo (?) redline it with ms p idc

>>2925249
I think it's a reasonable critique. Talk like you have used this site for more than three days and are actually over the age of 18 and people will be more inclined to critique you properly.

>>2925234

>>2925254
it's not critique when it's just "fix the face" tell me more and I'll try to understand

>>2925257
what does this even mean

>>2925234
why so serious

>>2925258
Alright, what I've done here >>2925262 is shift the eyes downards, and widen her head a bit for that fucking infernal 3/4th's view. You had more of an oval, and the lips were too small for a more realistic face, which came from the eyes. I also nerfed the bags under her eyes, no one has a fetish for that.

>>2925260
i want you to look really hard at this image, think about what has happened and consider the possible improvement done to the picture

>>2925272
Whoever tried to edit made their entire head massive, way out of proportion for a decent crit

>>2925272
Disregard this. This is just blind leading the blind.

>>2925276
man evolved from ape

>>2925234
Shit readline
>>2925262
I sort of disagree with widening the mouth (especially that wide) because she's blowing some bubble gum. Widening the face looks cuter, though.

>>2925284
thanks anon ! will fix :-)

>>2925284
Fuck, why is everyone on this board retarded when trying to write? I can't remember last time I was able to read anything in a redline.

I'm not that anon btw, but I doubt he will be able to read that anyways.

>>2925288
I can read it perfectly fine
>>2925282
LMAO

>>2925290
No you can't, you must have some sort of schizophrenia where you see shit everywhere. Tell me what the fuck is written there.

Chest nutness + hilt? hit? read s? What the fuck is the space between the "d" and the "s" What? em phasris? em phasis? Again with the space. I'm mad.

>>2925297
it says: "(ignore ear...)
chest roundness + tilt needs more emphasis
kys you're blind

>>2925298
Now explain the spaces, do it. Do it, explain it. Explain why put spaces between everything in a word. Go ahead, do it.

>dont draw for over a year
>forget how to draw

I didn't want to live anyway.

>>2925285
Oh, I forgot to mention, but plumping/rounding out her lips will make the blowing bubble gum act more believable. Also, cute Korean girl with a similar haircut in pic related.

>>2925288
You don't want to see my regular script if my digital handwriting is illegible.

>>2925306
At least you didn't drop down to /beg/ quality though.

>>2925288
>>2925297
Not him but I could also read it just fine so I think you may just be retarded.

>>2925297
I agree, you should see an eye doctor before drawing. The evidence is growing for your blindness.

>>2925312
EXPLAIN THE FUCKING SPACES. LOOK AT THIS SHIT. DO IT.

>>2925321
It's poorly written. It's not unreadable.

Go sperg somewhere else, holy shit man.

>>2925306
the only problem I see is the big head ! super good art though anon

>>2925131
That's not even crit but I tried and failed anyway

>>2925193
>Italian is trying to send a message back to someone's family
kek, hands are a fucking nightmare but I agree, I'm actually stupid enough to not use refs when I desperately need em. Thanks, I'll do studies tomorrow.

>>2925325
Oh, now it's poorly written? Tomorrow what'll be the name, magically constructed? Strangely worden? You are all digging up your own graves and don't know it.

If you all want to be mad men I will leave you all to it.

>>2925234
1. Cut that out with the purple blot on the shoulders. I understand why it's there, but it's done so badly stylistically. Look up your favorite artists to see how they colored shoulders.

2. Hard edges. 100% Opacity and hardness, go over contour again.

3. The color pallet is dead, your choices of color make the skin plastic. On the color picker, never go down direcrly for varying darkness, make a C while you pick color.

4. Legs freakishly long. If the hands are at the midpoint of the thigh, imagine where her hip would be.

>this entire fucking thread

>>2925334
No one said it was perfectly written you mental defective, they said it was readable. Which it is.
>I will leave
FFS, please do, and don't come back.

>>2925350
I didn't say I was leaving the place, just this particular case of bad writing.

I just hope some day you have to write something important and fuck it all up, then the person reads it all wrong and fucking DIES.

>>2925353
Mature, aren't you?

>>2925356
Atleast I can write well...

>>2925353
ಠ_ಠ

The fuck is wrong with you

>>2925218
>>2925195
>>2925206
what the actual fuck are you telling him
poses are going to be stiff, big whoop

>>2925186
Imagine yourself in the same position. Or, better yet, put yourself in the same position. Do it in front of a mirror, or take a picture of yourself with a timer in the same pose.

Also think about why she's in that particular pose. Why wouldn't she be standing? Sitting with her knee(s) pulled up to her chest? Why is she on her elbow?

Is this thread just for anime? My stuff doesn't feel like it would go down well in the draw thread.
I would like honest opinions on this stuff, most of my friends and classmates don't challenge my drawings and I feel like there is stuff wrong.

>>2925462

>>2925464

>>2925465

>>2925468

>>2925469
Last one, this is a WIP so be brutal

>>2925400
Well, I was originally going to give her prosthetic legs, and have her getting up from being tripped, but I decided I had no good ideas for limbs, so I switched it to her getting up from lying down to pull off kneesocks. The idea is that most people lie down and strip a bit to masturbate. Her shirt is the sad panda, and I'm adding a pillow and Comic LO.
>>2925460
Much better in terms of construction, very appealing face, and so on. There won't be any regression memes based off this. But why the dead bird?
>>2925471
Nothing really wrong with it, but the size of the cards is inconsistent. I like your style.

>>2925460
what is the point of investing so much time into art, if you only end up drawing meaningless things?

>>2925488
>The idea is that most people lie down and strip a bit to masturbate.
Then why wouldn't she be lying on her back, pulling her knee up to her chest? What is she lying on? If it's the floor (with her stiff pose, that's what it looks like at the moment), why would she masturbate on the floor? If it's a bed, there should be more give around her weight-bearing areas (elbow, hips, etc.).

>>2925521
Some people just want to draw cute girls.

Drawing cute girl so far, thoughts /ic/?

done for now, I'll look @ it tomorrow then make final adjustments

>>2925306
never give up onichan

>>2925521
>>2925525
I never understood this either. Why draw cute girls when you could tell an amazing epic story that might include a cute girl, or illustrate an meaningful concept? Is it just because you're lonely and don't get female attention? I'm genuinely curious.

>>2925306
I'm on the same boat as anon here.
Except I haven't drawn in several years and I'm trying to relearn everything.

Hit me with your hardest.

>>2925595
Not everyone does things for big reasons. Sometimes they just do something as a means to express something.

Something like "I like cute girls."

I personally want to do both, but if someone just wants to draw cute girls for their own enjoyment, who am I to tell them they're wrong?

>>2925583
Oh wow, I haven't seen you do much in color! I'm envious, truly.
>>2925595
I just think it's fun. I have a cute girl in my life who gives me attention, but I still draw lolis. It's like projecting, where you try to make the world match your inner feelings.

>>2925597
Lines are too consistent and thin in weight, giving it a very superficial, coloring book feel. I don't have a problem with much of your construction, except maybe the back of her head, but the rendering is very plain as well.

>>2925583
I'm probably going too low saturation (I've always had a low saturated style, I just dig it, studied too much Hyung Tae Kim back in the day).

I need to study up on lights on body again, it's lost on me now. The lines are blurry because I didn't realize I was drawing on 200x200 and blew it up double size...

>>2925524
She'll be on the floor, yes, and I expect others to have enough of an imagination or not care about why she's on the floor. I don't know how to satisfy your needs that well, no offense. As for her pose, there are shortcomings, but it gets the idea of "reaching for her knee" across while exposing her body, doesn't it?

>>2924935
pretty stiff

>>2924940
Eyes too big
Ear to low
Read the sticky yada yada

>>2925079
Background is bland
coloring and rendering is kinda bad.
decent drawing in itself tho

>>2925583

>>2924940
dont listen to this guy
>>2925622

Your style seems inspired by oldschool disney (the eyes anyway, reminds me of ariel). Don't shade with one directional lines like that, look up directional lines to learn about shading to highlight contours of the face. If you'd rather go for cartoony, block it in, just do not use scribble lines like you've done. And unless that hair? is covered by fishnets, don't ever color like that.

>>2925621
>You will never lobotomize Maldraw
>You will never watch him wake up after the operation, his deadened eyes looking around yet not understanding what he sees
>You will never help him calm down after he gets frustrated at not comprehending things he could before, although he lacks the mind to know what he's barely lost
>You will never start helping feed and wash him as he sinks deep into his new life
>You will never hear him thoughtlessly giggle about stiff poses as you wash him down every day before bed
>You will never help him stay clean as he draws, as he's been dumbed down enough to not understand how perspective works
>You will never frequently release his sexual tension as he moans like an squid in heat to help keep his stress low
>You will never give him headpats, money, and extra orgasms as prizes for good behavior and art
>You will never tuck him into bed every night, watching him sleep as preparation for the next bright new day

>>2925626
uh
whats wrong with my criticism

>>2925628
>You will never frequently release his sexual tension as he moans like an squid in heat to help keep his stress low

>>2925626
Anon's obviously not going for realism, you dont look at powerpuff girls and crit them by saying their eyes are too big or they have no nose, you accommodate for their style.

>>2925633
>>2925630
meant to quote this

>>2925619
What I'm getting (and simultaneously trying to make you understand) from this exchange is that perhaps the pose looks stiff and unnatural because you haven't thoroughly thought out the situation behind the scene you want to illustrate, so the finished product doesn't make sense or feel organic.

>>2925626
>>2925633
>>2925635
Even going for Disney style he's off. Placement of features tends to be consistent when stylized, despite size changes, unless intentionally changed. Anon does not seem to be doing this.

I can tell the face is off, but I'm not sure how exactly...

>>2925626
>>2925633
>>2925635
Well, its ear is misplaced.

Also this>>2925639

>>2925636
Yes, I'll try to next time.

>>2925645

No, wait... how about now...

>>2925628
>You will never frequently release his sexual tension as he moans like an squid in heat to help keep his stress low

Almost done with this.
>>2924940
Those bangs are kinda distracting and block too much of the face, imo.

>>2925645
>>2925653
Beat me to it

Left side of the face was blank

>>2925658
Neat. The paw on the bottom right seems a little too flat and I feel like we should see some of the tiger's other hind leg but aside from that I like it.

>>2925658

>>2925662
>bottom right
fug, I meant bottom left.

>>2925661
Did the adjustment fix it?

>>2925664
2 l8

>>2925666
73% of it

Dont like the expression (idk whats trying to convey) and neck is too high.

noice linart tho

>>2925664
>>2925662
thx guise.
I'll hafta fix it when i wake up

>>2925668
Inhumanity.

It's not really a face, more like a mask. I'm thinking of adjusting the eyes because the glance is stupid the more I look at it.

What are you seeing in the %27 that's left aside from the expression...?

>>2925671
That for the most part

I dont like the face that much tho (in an attractive way), if it was up to me I would make the mouth a little smaller and less space between the eyebrows and eyes.

Oops, just realize I posted it in the old thread.

>>2921818
>I absolutely refuse to be indebted to anyone.
Sadly I share the same sentiments and I can't go against it despite knowing that's not healthy.

>>2921577
This is amazing, yet somehow feels off. I can't pin point exactly what it is but something about the face is throwing my off. Not an issue of the structure or anything, but the likeliness of the character seems off. Only other thing I can say is it's kind of a shame that you put all that effort into the face/hair but not as much with the rest. I still really like it though.

Also do you have a website you don't mind sharing?

>>2923032
Really like this but it got kinda spooky after seeing that bald head at the bottom left.

>>2925121
Perspective on the heels seem a little awkward and unnatural. Same issues with the way the ribbon or lace around the ankle on the bottom right.

>>2925677

I'm okay with questionable attractiveness.

Honestly if I'm hitting above 88% okay with drawings that's close enough. Trying to get to 100% is an exercise in futility.

>>2925646
Artists here! Thanks for all the comments, it mean a lot that you guys are helping me!

crit pls

Any opinion on this drawing /ic/?

>>2925702
Also this one too?

1of3

>>2925691
the neck is still too large mane.

>>2925727
2of3

>>2925730
3of3

>>2925691
So here is what I did
>Make her head a little larger (since the neck is too big and women usually have 2 head length shoulders, not 3 like men)
>Aligned the right eye (the eyes are around 1 eye of distance from the other bruh)
>Gave her less chin and jaw
>Positioned the head a little lower.

idk if you like it but it may help you getting that 100% percent. ask for second opinions too tho.

>>2925702
Looks good
>>2925704
Kinda mediocre but k

>>2925691
First time redlining, but I want to help.
Overall that pose looks stiff, maybe you want to replcate those awkward shaft head tilts?

>>2925697
Looks good mane.
Cant find flaws

>>2925744
>Ears
>Placed there
the problem is not the position itself or lack of dynamism. Is the placement of the overall face.

Not a good redline mane.

>>2925747
Should I really explain why the ear was placed there?

>>2925690
http://l3monjuic3.deviantart.com/

>>2925755
thanks for pointing out
I guess is just the space between the space and the eyebrows thats messing me up

>>2925764
No problem.
Just think 3D.

>>2925580
>>2925577
Mate both are turned wrong. At least ggive us the image right side up

>>2925739
I'll relook at the head and chin, I was wondering about that...

>>2925744
Not trying to be argumentative, but there should be a bit of stiffness since this character is a wooden doll, so the pose should be a little off BUT the proportions should not be (like the eye thing and the neck being too long)

Thanks for the feedback guys

how the fuck do i render surfaces
everything looks like someone pasted purple paste on a white sheet of paper and spread it with their asscheeks.
I cant get any lighting right, are there any tips or guides anywhere on how to render paintings for retards

god bless you anon

>>2926044
also pic

>>2926023

Updated again.

Welp, i need help.
I'm pretty much new to painting so anything you see i'm doing wrong, tell me please.
I know this needs to be rendered and such, but i'm more interested on learning to 'build' three dimensional forms first.

My paintings are up on my college campus wew

>>2925727
>>2925730
Digging the style on these!

>>2926292
No you have your priorities right, construct THEN render. Rather git gud with forms first than render "polished" turds.

That being said, the only thing that needs fixing is the neck placement. Necks aren't in the middle of your skull anon, it rests closer to the back of the head.

>>2925697
Could add more to the hairline and the left part of the hair doesn't quite seem to be attached to the head. Folding on the clothes needs to be reworked a bit.

>>2925697
Her right cheekbone should be closer to nose level. Tinker with her mouth and chin more, you can make it look better. Also, make more sense out of her hairline.

>>2926370
uh, i can't believe i didn't see that.
I was originally drawing her on a different pose, and i guess i forgot to adapt the neck (tho i might still not have worked on the previous pose)
Thank you.
Still, nothing to say about the construction/painting in general? that's what i'm more worried about

>>2926292
How do you even paint like this/render? What is the best guide/resource? I really need help with how people go from grey shading to coloring stuff, thanks.

>>2926504
Oh, nono i painted it directly with colours, i also can't go from grey scale to colour properly.
For the record tho, there's a trick i got from a twitch stream (don't remember from who)
If you are working on Photoshop, go to
>View-> Proof Setup -> Custom
Then, where it says 'Device to simulate' choose
>Working Gray - Dot Grain 20%
Hit Ok, and from now on, you can swap from a grey scale to colour view with Ctrl+Y.
You can even work with colours while on grey scale view, because you aren't modifying the colours themselves

>>2926514
Hey, thanks for clarifying! I don't work in PS, but if i ever do this will be helpful.

I'm using a name fuck it...
anyway, I'm an amateur really I've been drawing for years and have not pick up 1 single book or even had a teacher (sad i know).

poor kid never had alot of drawing supplies i drew alot in books, yes that's sad but no one cares...

I honest don't know where i am. I feel like I should have been spending more time drawing. the most i spend is 2 hours (OCCASIONALLY)

...NGMI, but i'm trying more and more every day.

How are you guys doing?

>>2926520
>NGMI

What is your goal?

Andrae please, can you update your blog more often? It's pretty annoying to visit /ic/ trash hole for your art.

>>2926370
>>2926473
i wanted to try too!

wasted some time drawing pleated skirts today

>>2926536
who

Answer me, /ic/.

>>2926649
Get used to it.

>>2925460
I like all the vaginas, look tender and meaty.

I feel like something is off about the torso and pelvis, cant pinpoint what.

Can anyone point out?

>>2926666
Don't trace.

>>2926666
It's stiff and her leg is broken

>>2925460
If the bird is still alive, I'll buy it

>>2926292
lighting setup have inconsistencies, if the shadow starts on the middle of her nose as it comes from the right, her hair should behave the same

the brights that come from the BG reflected light should follow form and be stopped by previous masses like the hair on the face or the tits on the arm, as it would "cast" shadow of that rim light

Thunder thighs Fiora.

any comment/advice will be apreciated

>>2926730
Pretty hot

I will say this, though. All of your lines have the same weight to them. Hard for me to tell what you want people to focus on.
Also, the hip area looks a bit awkward. Hard for me to tell where the iliac crest and the head of the femur is. Almost like the area between these two points was inflated with air.
Good shit otherwise.

>>2926826
dont really know what to do with the other hand.

>>2926835
Try doing the pose yourself to see if it's natural or not. That might help

>>2926835

>>2926835
not fan of the nose

>>2926927
Noice.
Did you use a reference?.

>>2926927
w-what software is this? what brushe do you use?

>>2926945
I always look for a few references of the pose I wants to do. No straight copy of one if that's what you're asking though.

>>2926948
Just Photoshop with the default blur brush.

Which nontraditional artist do you look up to the most?

>>2926982
Define non traditional

>>2926982
animu, videogame art, digital painting

Yeah I know, expected this
I tried to push myself to finish a piece even though I don't really know what I'm doing. Most of my stuff are mindless doodles I never bother to fix or even line. I'm trying to break bad habits and get out of my comfort zone. Any general advice?

Thanks for your reply

Depends on what you're after, if backgrounds try to do more studies, find backgrounds that you like and re-draw or reference them. Study construction.

For the body I'd say just do more gesture study, maybe do 20 60 second gestures a day, just so you can get your poses to look more fluid.

Everything besides that is just draw more, if you're looking to break your comfort zone I advise doing lineless finished stuff.

what is the difference between a squirrel and a chipmunk

>>2926982
i look up to an consciously take influence from too many artists to count since i switch styles up a lot depending on whatever i'm working on

mike mignola & hiroyuki imaishi are the big two that really got me into drawing, pretty much any artist who's worked on tank girl, daisuke nakayama, takeshi koike, yoh yoshinari & stephen silver off the top of my head

when drawing porn i tend to like to channel the more cartoony side of onta/doxy, some fishine, lotta budu-nsfw

i'm not really into many artists who're known mostly for having worked on video games save like maybe old bengus when he worked traditional and akihido yoshida i guess, OOOH, and kinu nishimura, how could i forget

>>2926527
to "GIT GUD" every time I see professional PAID artist who get to enjoy drawing and have revenue. That's the start for my goal, to git so gud, i can market this skill improve it and go all out.

What's this from? its super cute

Yoh Yoshinari's Deadwood Designs. Should be in one of the links over in the book thread.

>>2927099
Not gonna make it.

>>2926605
wow this is pretty. its also super 90s anime looking, im curious to see more. do you have a tumblr?

>>2927159
I know right, just gotta keep pushing.

Time to grind hands until I can draw them

damn sketches I never know when to stop, what is the astronaut even doing there. and I fucked up the perspective. whatever I'm supposed to make like 10 of these.

>>2927024
dude you need to focus more on figure/gesture drawing, your drawings would look 10 times better if your fundamentals were stronger. this one is cute and all but you need to push yourself out of your comfort zone.

>>2927024

Noice rendering.

I'll be working on this more tomorrow, but I was hoping for feedback tonight. Be savage. Please & thx.

Try putting the correct foot on the leg next time rookie

dont hold back, gonna color this tomorrow

Quick lil comic

>>2927356
There's nothing all that wrong with it. Something seems almost off about the face and ears, but I'm certain that's because I haven't seen it colored yet. Also widow maker doesn't have cleavage.

>>2927356
Placement of nose and mouth is off. Nose it too long (gives off weird bird person vibes) also resting too shallow on face - makes it look pinched. Bring the bottom of the nose up a bit so there's more room between it and lips.
The eye is also slanted up a bit too much, and a bit too high (pupil is usually in line with the bridge of nose).
Neck also looks a bit wiggly and weird in the front there. Define neck muscles more etc.

>>2927364
>>2927356
Here, I tried to do the edits I suggested,
to show more clearly what I meant. They're all pretty subtle moves. Sorry if I made it worse, and happy coloring

>>2927359
Silver?

>>2927356

>>2927404
No sir. Silver who?

>>2926536
no

>>2927230
what are these sketches for?

>>2926038
this is just a stylistic thing, but such grey/purplish colors don't really give skin a good luster? It looks drained and less erotic(which i guess is what you want with so much cleavage), reddish/pinkish tones give a more flushed feeling

>>2927425
So cute OwO

>>2927424
>no
Fuck you

If you can't even draw properly, don't use "it is my style" as an excuse you pathetic fucks.

Drawing is a fun activity, it is such a pathetic excuse to be bad at it and claim it is "style".

Fucking read the sticky, go through everything, you'll get gud in a year.

how do i use that link?

Can anybody explain me the technique behind such rendering?

How the fuck did he do this?
Is it a color painting and he's just a fucking god?
Was it multi-layered BW coloring with gradient maps?

How does this work?

>>2927571
I love that concept. Very cute.

>>2927571
understand color temperature, but yeah you can color grade an image using a gradient map or curves on an adjustment layer. Make sure your values are correct tho obv.

>>2927571
Just looks panted to be honest. He could have started greyscale and added colour to it, then painted on top a bit, or just painted it normally. The end result isn't due to some magic method though.

>>2927571
it's called limited palette.
and it's also just a well rendered turd. those legs are so flat it hurts my eyes.

edited according to suggestions, also thanks a bunch guys it definitely looks better! still open to suggestions

>>2927316
Shit, you're right. I am the posterchild for 'don't day-drink and draw'.

>>2927597
The one from before was better.

>>2927616

>>2927571
I love your technique. Could you share it with me?

>>2927621
That's not his drawing dummy.

>>2927571
Is this what you call warm colors

>>2927637
mostly cools & greys and a little mixture of warms

>>2927024
pretty hilarious
she has random tears with no emotion. blank stare and then there's the bird lol

>>2925582
I like this a lot

stop grinding fundamentals
stop practicing shapes

just draw anime

>>2927685
>no emotion
anon by any chance do you have autism or something similar

>>2927701
Stop drawing anime.

>>2927701
To be fair, anime is all about the correct shapes. It's just not general stuff like circles and squares but more how a head should be stylized with just the right curve and proportions that match to your liking.

>>2927711
check out this weeaboo nerd

I don't know how to paint like this and studying pieces isn't helping me. I need guidance.

>>2927782
I think your transparency is too high? set a base colour and paint the shadows/light over it
How are you painting that study? it almost seems like you were at 100% opacity

>>2927786
Transpa... wait, what? I never bothered with shit like that, I just get the default settings and mix shit.

Is it that important? I don't even know where to start if I need to learn those things.

>>2927789
it's over, don't bother

>>2925583
kinda reminds me of ellie from last of us

>>2927659
I fucking love this. Reminds me of Shoomlah's sketch work.

>>2927789
your transparency is under the INK tab in your SUBTOOL options you can add it to that tray. you shouldnt be using amount of paint density of paint color stretch if you have no idea how to use them

>>2927813
pic related

>>2927782
Probably takes many layers over hours to achieve such an effect.

Visual library still pretty weak, can't express the story/setting I want just from design I feel like.

>>2927823
Cool lamps at least. Although, I probably wouldn't buy them because they hardly let out much light through their openings.

>>2927268
Draw more nekkid girls on sofas. Also something about the torso or just the pose seems a little off.

>>2927831
Noted, went overboard with the rule of cool instead of thinking of practicality.

>>2927851
I guess if I owned an inn and wanted it to have a dark kind of look then those lamps are good. Maybe he's that kind of merchant! Quite niche of a business though.

>>2927823
Looks scary, like his lamps are powered by the souls of people he killed.

>>2927597
I think the hands look better but there's nothing wrong with pigeontoed-feet; those are cute

>>2927823
The fact that the perspective of the lamps is like we are watching from above is really botheringgg me. The design is cool though

>>2927024

THE REGRESSION

How do I into clothes?

You can portray creases and such with just two colours, right?

>>2927820
If you mean the skin or lightning effects, it's pretty easy to do such effects in CSP. The original isn't even that good, actually, aside from the the golden and blue fabric. Just use SMOOTHER WATERCOLOR AND OIL BRUSHES with slightly tweaked settings.

>>2925121
>>2927673
k done messing with it

Drawing feet is hard...

>>2928003
Less is more when it comes to creases and folds in fabric.

muh dik dik

>>2928218
It's way off perspective from the upper half of her body. That's not how you use perspective lines.

>>2928345
To elaborate, you set the horizon way too low as evidenced by looking at her shoulder and hat area, looks like you just set a line and said fuck this and scribbled in some 'perspective grid' for the feet. Her body is learning too rightward and looks fucked up with those legs.

>>2928267

There's something about this composition that leads my eyes out of the picture, and I can't focus on the subject.
I realy like the theme otherwise, with the dead/dying hummingbird, flowers and all.

>>2927275
that head is huge

Critique? Have problems with the one on the right but not exactly certain how to go about it.

>>2927894
you are blind then. the problem doesn´t lie with the pigeon toes, but the fact that the feet are complete pancakes lacking form.

>>2928619
That's cute and cool. Got a blog?

C&C would be appreciated

More lamp fuckery.
>>2928625
Head is massive, left foot is angled downwards and a bit small. Right leg looks wonky with the way the thighs taper into the knee and then grow back for the calf. Torso leaning a bit too much backwards I think.

>>2924930
very early stages, but here's ass over tits mercy falling off a cliff

>>2928348
Could you make a redline for my picture so i can understand your critique better, please?

>>2928745
>>2928625
All valid. Thanks anon. It's supposed to be based on this character.

>>2926605
c-cute!

>>2928761
nevermind i figured it out

>>2928323
Looks really good. You used perspective really well imo and it looks really appealing.
What looks kinda off though is her armpit on the right. Im not too familiar with the anatomy but her deltoid seems to big on the backside, additionally we should be able to see part of her scapula. The breast to the right (her left) looks a little wonky atm, looked more solid before but i really like how you draw breasts especially the left one looks nice.
And it would be cool to see you use more lineweight.

I love your drawing and I hope you post here more often. Cheers

>>2928323
>>2928867
I see what you mean for the left breast, finished the clothed & shaded version in the meantime and it seems fine in it, though I should still try to improve it a bit in the nude version.

So, what do you think now?

>>2928994
I've been working almost non-stop on a 3D school short movie project since September so I had to put it on a hold for now. Though I'm technically still kinda making some progress since I actually chose the same story to work on. Also allows me to improve more the scenes and characters.

>>2929102
Looking really good there senpai. I dabble in Zbrush to sketch out ideas too every so often but getting technical with the meshes and textures is just too much. Looking forward to seeing you around more often.

>>2928223

Thanks anon, I did get the feeling that I probably went overboard, especially with the middle one.

Perspective is crazy fucked. I'll try to fix it in digital someday in the future when I'm not as much of a shithead.

Grim Reaper character sketch from my story/game concept.

Can I get some tips about drawing cute girls in cel shading style?

Had advice that told me to slow down and carefully render out my values and stuff instead of rushing to finish stuff every time, but I'm not sure if I'm on the right track or not (WIP)

new thread >>2929658

>>2929422

Hm. You might want to check the balance on the girl. Either contraposto her right leg or move it farther to right to evenly distribute her weight.

>>2929191
