It's cringeworthy to see someone who has done so many three quarter portraits of androgynous characters not be able to place eyes, nose and lips in good orientation. Is he using photoreference without a sense of construction? Is that why a lot of his renderings have a ton of fill lights and very little shadow work?

That he spends the time to render, then goes back and erases and re-does the position of important things only serves to highlight his lack of drawing and construction. Complete waste of effort and time.

This is an old-as-fuck adage: good rendering skills can't carry a shitty drawing.

Look at Vilppu: he can draw any face from any age from any angle while speaking to you about what he's doing and why he's doing it.

That's an example to follow.

His environment stuff is good. It's interesting to see how he gets atmospheric perspective and depth in environment work but his portrait work is very often flat and he never pushes the value ranges when he does these. Again, people can brush the lack of value ranges in his faces as a matter of stylistic choice.

These are contradictory statements. His enviroments would have looked vastly different if he was heavily reliant on photobashing, 3d and reference. What part of this aren't you getting?

He's notorious for spending lots of time polishing his work long after the bulk of the painting has been done. That's not the same as painting slowly. Also, this was like 7 years ago, he's bound to have gotten faster by now.

I'm not going to read this thread but one thing people need to understand is that the sketch phase SHOULD be loose. Loose obviously means different things for different people, but ruan jia obviously he doesn't invest himself in it that much.

There are artists out there who are just better painters than line drawers, and vice versa. Knowing how to draw precisely definitely makes painting easier, but it's not a 1 to 1 kind of thing.
Ruan has said himself that he's aware of his weaknesses, but what some anons miss is that he's still good enough at it to let his painting skills carry the rest to convey his ideas to the finished product people see. Obviously he could be better at drawing, but for what he wants to do it's enough, and he has the rest of his life as well to continue studying.

Long hair in his rendering tends to looks like pasta strips. The image you linked is a good example of that.

A few of his short haired male (I think? too androgynous to tell who is male and who is female in his work to be honest) hair renderings are slabs of volume that you would expect on a sculpture, except sculptures unify them quite well to represent one whole whereas his tends to look thrown together and amateur.

Finally, his attempts at rendering smaller, thinner groups (example: >>3210135 ) don't resemble hair at all. It looks like some crazy transparent silk with all sorts of colors flying everywhere. He showed what reference he used for that particular image and I think he was just making shit up as he went along.

I understand that it's stylized. His skin rendering is great. His armors are great. His hair is terrible and destroys most of his work for me, because he tends to have _a lot_ of hair on his characters.

For every d/ic/k who dislikes tumblr-tier shit, there's probably plenty who think it's fantastic and will throw Patreon bucks to perpetrate it (see Jazza's subscriber count). What are you supposed to say to people like that?

I like it, because A: it reads(for me), and B: I like the texture in it.

Also, it all feels very solid because of the way he renders volumes. And I think he's the only one who renders hair quite like that, so I find it interesting.

But if I may ask, do you have an example of rendered hair that you would consider pretty solid? I'd like to learn as much as I can.

I agree. The big forms read just fine. It's when I look at it closely that I realize how unhair-like it looks.

I do like some of his stuff like the pic attached, but most of his work isn't like that. He seems to have problems rendering hair and fur.

>But if I may ask, do you have an example of rendered hair that you would consider pretty solid? I'd like to learn as much as I can.

How so?

Wei Feng doesn't seem to have a good feel for material variety. Ruan Jia tends to have a balance of rough and specular materials, plus a better feeling for plane directions, and all of that underlies fairly loose, abstract brush work. I would also argue that his values and shape design are a level higher.

I love Wei Feng though, I just don't think he's quite good enough to "destroy" RJ. I don't think any digital artist alive is so good that they make RJ look amateur.
