This thread is meant for artists who might want to try to make anime works in-between their studies, however, all forms of stylization is welcome here. It is strongly recommended that you use this thread in conjunction with learning the elements and fundamentals of art. You can also discuss the visual elements of various professional artists as well if you keep it relatively articulate and civil.

Submit your drawings, receive feedback or critique others! Share your knowledge and remember to thank those who've critiqued or red-lined your drawings. Most importantly, you should have fun!

You know that hands have wrists right? In that position you should've made the wrists pop out and curved the top hand inwards towards her chest and away from the viewer to follow the curve of the arm.

Okay, if you have some purpose for it then it's fine. One other minor complaint is that the text is slightly hard to read, even on a big high res monitor.

the writing is just for my own reference right now, since I write the exact dialogue as I draft. the plan is to remove it and insert type
I found a scanner online with everything I need and it's coming eventually. The plan is to scan each panel before and after I attack it with watercolors, correct the colored version to have good saturation and white balance, then take the ink only version, increase the saturation so it's true black and put it on top, though I might not have to if the auto exposure on the scanner works well

I have a lot of background in traditional illustration, but as far as manga, hellsing, soul eater, and itou junji, with the latter being my favorite. I'm torn between the freedom of a more simple style like soul eater, hirano-san's eccentric empasis on clothes which I also tend to do, and the mastery of itou's work.

So, I bought a graphic tablet (NEW 1060 PLUS) but I'll admit it I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed since this is all new to me, I've never drawn anything digital before, I was strictly drawing traditional before. I downloaded a bunch of programs to see whether everything was working as intended or not. I think I'll try to get good with Clip Studio Paint I think as I read good things about it.

Anyway, does anyone have any tips or advice? Like some sort of course, stuff I could read or whatever I could follow to reach a point where I more or less know what I'm doing? I don't mean drawing-wise but more like tool-wise. I'd just really like some tips, guidelines and advice if possible. Thanks.

I'd recommend using a stabilizer if you're having trouble getting the same lines.
Some people say it's a crutch, but they're pretty fucking stupid. It's a tool like anything digital. It doesn't teach you to draw poor lines, and it doesn't inhibit your skill on paper either. All it does is make the lines a little easier to draw since tablet are so oversensitive.

>> No.3050025

>>3049971
It won't help you that much tough. If you were doing shit lines before you'll still go shit lines with it. Stablizer removes the imperfections of lines you can get, kinda like 3D rendered lines., it lacks life.

How do you do those volume implying lines like on the Demon King's abs? The sort of airbrushed look but still very controlled?

Also, I like the designs but I only really have two critiques. The fat general's stomach feels more like a pregnant woman's stomach with how taut it is, versus a real fat man with a similar build. Also, the hero's nips being visible is distracting to the point this looks more like a hentai doujin series. But that's definitely subjective.

Nah, it's pretty straightforward, I overall always use those two tools do draw everything actually. Though a bit less of smudge since those are sketches.

And yeah, there were already lots of well shaped muscular guys so differentiating him with an exaggerated beer belly works well I think, since he's also the older one of the bunch.

damn, you having a bad day anon? Or do you always act like a condescending little bitch?
You have every right to dislike the style, but YOU certainly didn't give a 'critique', and it obvious.
Now let me show you how a condescending asshole gives a critique.

>were the plucked eyelashes and shaved eyebrows intentional or just an oversight?

Have you taken note of this artists overall style? If so, you can come to the conclusion that they more than likely intentionally simplified these features and spent no more than a couple hours on this piece. It's not even a finished piece so why would assume this anime-esque art would have included eyelashes and more realistic eyebrows? Surely you noticed the lining around the eyebrow as well(Indicating it was INTENTIONALLY made to be thin)

>learn to draw faces, necks, chests, arms, elbows, hips and legs (basically, anatomy) before colouring them

So here it looks like you tried to point out the anatomy mistakes, but really all you did was list off body parts. I believe you worded this sentence specifically to try and prolong what you actually were saying, which was "Learn anatomy before coloring"
It's already a given that this artist is working on their anatomy since the first fucking sentence in this thread is "This thread is meant for artists who might want to try to make anime works in-between their studies"
But you're not the type to read or analyze much, are ya?

>major props for drawing hands despite the style though

I'm guessing you tried to end your 'critique' with an ass-backwards compliment, so good for you! At least you tried!

Asshole like you only destroy an artist's drive to continue improving, even if you're just here to waste time and bait people.
So work within your means and fuck off.

I find it pretty fucking hilarious on hindsight, until this week he was always the "4th random general to fill in" in my mind, but now that I redesigned him properly I feel like I almost made him too impressive looking.

> this looks/sounds less retarded instead of calling them all General

Well, they does are supposed to be of the same rank. I initially wanted to call them the "four heavenly kings" like how the 4 bosses under the demon king tends to be called, but I find that title more impressive than the demon king one so I didn't keep it and began using military ranks instead.
As I mentioned before, belly red, blue, grey and another one are of the same rank (highest one under the demon king), though grey also leads the whole army and is as such a bit more important, while the 4th one is considered the demon king's right hand but doesn't do much leading wise.

Perspective on this is really weird, the legs taper really fast and to a really exaggerated degree which makes me think you tried to make a dynamic overhead foreshortening shot but then fucked it up.Also, the foreshortening on the left arm doing the middle finger does not read as foreshortening and instead looks like she has a really short upper arm and a monstrously long forearm. The creature on the right has terrible hands and the right shoulder seems to have been completely forgotten about. Speaking of torsos, the other girl's shirt doesn't behave how cloth would and is way too stiff and her trapezius muscles are connecting to the shoulder in a weird way, probably a perspective issue.

Big belly on men isn't like that. It's too saggy and more akin to a pregnant woman. Seriously, if you raise it up and don't have it cut off underneath his chest it would look far more masculine.

It's barely noticable, but the amount of ribcage on the right side? That little bit? Just get rid of it and replace it with round stomach. Raise the belly button a little and you're good to go

Oh yeah, should just have looked at IRL extreme cases of beer beely to begin with, the ribcage part does doesn't works. I'm not really sure if the tits should be as pushed up if the guy is still supposed to be muscular but I guess I could redo them like in that photo too.

Even if you wanna make him strongfat it won't matter much. If he's got saggy tits then that's fine but pecs won't push down a beer belly. They just kind of... Exist on top of one another?

Fat and muscle aren't intertwined, they're their own layers. So even though fat might spill around fat, the muscle underneath won't be too altered. That's why a big belly will make the tits spread, but not pecs.

This guy's probably not as fat as you want, but it's a good example of what happens. Sorry for the dick but you get the idea.

Her left shoulder is lower than the right one, so naturally her left elbow should be lower than her right one, but instead they're about the same height, which makes the left arm look smaller. I'm not sure if I explained myself correctly so I'll leave an image. Hope it helps and good luck!

Couple things.

If you want to go for the hair over the eye look, make sure the hair covers the entire eye. Don't do the DeviantART hair-flip where it looks like she just has skin. Either draw the other eye or have the curls cascade down her entire cheek with no "negative" space.

As far as that hand, I have problems with hands, too. Longer fingers and nails will make it look far more elegant, and don't feel like you have to show the entirety of each finger. Have some cut off from perspective is perfectly acceptable.

If you want to keep the colors of the dress and shoes, I suggest you darken the hair. It's too intense to look good and the whole thing looks sloppy. But if you want to keep that hair color, making the dress white with gold trim would help that color scheme out IMMENSELY. And gold wristclasps might not be a bad idea, either, especially if you want long, lanky arms.

Speaking of accessories, you've got a steel/iron/silver moon going on... And a gold pendant. It's usually not a good idea to mix different color metals together unless they're touching (like different bangles). Choose one metal and stick with it. If you have an incredibly complicated costume idea (which I didn't get from this but whatever) then use both of those metals in other places of your character's costume. It looks awkward otherwise.

I like the way you feet. There's some calf issues going on on the left (our side) but the feet look proportionate and well-placed. Glad you didn't cop out on them like a lot of people do.

Thanks for actually giving me a useful critique. I tried to change the torso to something more dynamic but ending up keeping it as it would probably not be worth the time. I noticed I naturally tilted her shoulders which added a little interest to the piece but I wasn't sure why it wasn't working correctly but once I just adjusted the lengths to match the blue line tilt it seemed to work.

Well the eyes aren't matching the left is fine while the right is janked, but that's an easy fix desu

You've got the right idea with the breasts but the shirt is over-exaggerated so widen the lining of the shirt that out lines them

your neck is just a tree body, and thats fine in situations where that general area isn't emphasized make it look more natural by widening the bottom part and make it look more connected to the body

honestly these are all things you can learn easily through learning muscle anatomy

Remember, the best anime-style artists still had to learn the human body and proportions before they were able to exaggerate them, which is why are able to do it more consistently and with quality results

When trying to draw a line, it helps to throw down a few until you find which one looks right. This is the same priniciple.
A thick line is just a bunch of lines together. Your brain will interpret the "correct" line from those lines.
The thicker the line, the more chances you have at drawing the "correct" line in it. Blurring is just another way of doing thicker lines, and leaving more up to the brain's ability to idealize what it sees.

The pose feels stiff more than anything else. Based on how well you've already defined the gear on her left arm, I'd imagine you want to make that a focal point right? In which case you might wanna have her right hand interacting with that instead of fiddling with her robe.

In general, I think one aspect of sketching you might want to work on is where you place your focus. You went and made a super detailed armor piece while 70% of the piece is still in a sketched state, like you're still not quite sure where you want to take the piece. To save a lot of headaches in the future, it's probably way easier to denote complicated objects using simple shapes, and to define it much later in the process. This way, you can make some pretty major changes without feeling like you've just deleted a lot of work.

For instance, my previous suggestion of having her right hand interacting with her left armor piece, you'd have to change the position of her left arm as well, and probably the shoulders and even the back as well. It's a lot easier (mentally, anyways) to do major changes like that if you haven't locked yourself into something by drawing a lot of details early on.

Thanks for the pic btw, but I think that the main issue is the way he drew the sleeve. It should end right after her elbow in that case to show that it slid down. But the character itself doesnt have a really good resemblance to the real one. But I still really like the picture.

Basically first time rendering. I've never spent so much time on something, so I'm blind to any flaws it has. Help me out by pointing out these flaws. Please and thank you

Ever heard of "pillow shading"? It's what you're doing right now.

damn I seen the term a lot but I only now googled it, and holy shit you're right almost everything is "pillow shaded' As for her arm I tried to do some forshortening meme but I fucked up. That I'll have to study.

Can you maybe tell me what's wrong with her face though? I literally don't see it, maybe I would change the nose but idk

Your getting this creepy feel because you're heavily styling one aspect of the character but trying to keep everything else anatomically correct. Your best bet would be to study shirtless cartoons or create your own logic of what should be what and ask for more critique then.

I just realized that I have already built an incredibly in depth universe for a story to be told. I also realized that people have already been taking my ideas.

I asked the same thing a week or so ago and was recommended Classic Human Anatomy by Valerie Winslow. I really, really like it, so you could always check it out. Otherwise there's also Anatomy for Sculptors, it's also nice but I prefer Winslow's because she explains everything and doesn't only rely on images.

Girls love me. I'm kawaii as fuck.

The pathetic kind of kawaii though. They want to take care of me. (This is what they tell me. I don't know if it's the case but I'm ok with that though. I want to be taken care of. <3<3<3)

It's funny, men hate me so much. They don't understand why I'm so popular. Why women are going absolutely crazy for me. They think I'm a massive faggot. It's true though. I am. I'm the biggest fag in the world. I don't like boys though.

What would you do to be me? To have the whole world talking about you? To be rich beyond your wildest dreams? To have any girl you want?

I would switch with you in a heartbeat. I just want to go home. I just want to love and be loved in return. I never asked for any of this. I never would have. They stole my life from me.

I'm a kitty, meow.

Space Kitty. I come from the Moon.

For real though, I'm not a real human. I'm a synthetic person. This is how they can do this. I'm not a person in the eye of the law. I'm property. I wasn't born, I was built. My memories were implanted.

I don't know how old I am. I don't know at which point I was put into service. I'm starting to think it was around 2010. Maybe the old me died? Overdosed possibly? Or the plane crashed? I don't know, but I'm not him. I'm someone else. Something else.
