/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

Besides the cross eyes, anything to point out?

>>3269479
The sizes of the eyes arent the same and the one on the left is much smaller and not close enough to the nose.

Please can i have som critique about the eyes and face?

>>3269479
The left shoulder is falling off the body and the left clavicle doesn't line up well with it.
The boobs are also inserting in weird spots.
The right leg looks like it only connects to the front of the pelvis, don't forget to show the underside and backside though the small cap you have.
Her left thumb is gigantic
Where are her ears?

These are mostly nitpicks though, honestly I think it's a nice drawing that's very sexy, crossed eyes and all.

This is my last attempt to create something with more complex rendering and values.
Im new to painting like that so would be nice to receive some feedback and critiq.

I never really asked for critique on my recent art and would like to ask for some if any would?

>>3269483
try making the eyes smaller and farther apart
but it looks heavily stylized so I wouldn't worry about it too much. I think they look cute overall.

>>3269483
It's fine, not great, but fine. There's not really enough there to critique, you should draw different subject matter as well as floating heads.

I've either seen your art somewhere else before or you have a generic style

i tried 2.0
cleaned up lines this time, since that was the only complaint
was going to post in how to fucking draw anime, but that thread is a ticking bomb

>>3269559
Yeah i know what you mean, im really trying to practice with eyes lately, because i think every kind of eye i do doesnt look right.

>>3269560
I post stuff alot so idk, and i was just drawing floating heads to experiment with eyes and face shapes.

>>3269566
You will learn a lot more from studying from a real world figure and then experimenting from it instead of copying anime from another shit artist.

>>3269573
but anon, "real world figures" are stiff af and most of them without curves (unless photoshopped)
trust me, i'm drawn a fair amount of models. they're either skelly or obese. and they have to hold a pose for a long time, that's why they're all stiff.

>>3269566
I like it.

>>3269585
If you don't have anything useful to say don't fucking say anything at all this isn't DA where you're playing buttgrab for likes and faves.

>>3269572
is that a backwards hand?

>>3269566
I love this artists, but maybe you should post a least know one if you want that much roleplay a retarded person.

>>3269616
>can't construct a sentence
>calls someone retarded

>>3269530
Looks fine so far honestly. I wanna see it finished.

>>3269628
English it's not my first language, but if someone retarded can understand me then it's good enough for me.

>>3269603
Yeah it was an early sketch, i fixed the hand later on.

>>3269521
How can i be so good as you??

crits?

>>3269659
The value range is poor, there's no mix of hard, soft, and lost edges, the colors are muddy. Why are you asking how to be as good as someone who's pretty bad?

>>3269397
I snuck out of /beg/ to come here. Papa Loomis would smack me upside the head if he caught me here.

>>3269566
what's this pictured based on?

>>3269639
I honestly couldn't understand, what were you trying to say?

>>3269660
Jazza is that you?

>>3269709
Something about a fag who don't know how to bait propelly.

>>3269007
>>3268999

its edited to cheese my friend

they cut out me saying like 8 amendments
including the refusal to quarter troops third amendment
and he talked to me for like 10 minutes

he also ranted himself, for like a long time but the only part you get is me saying "well i cant argue with that HOLY SHIT THIS DUDE IS NUTS IM OUTTA HERE LOL INTERNALLY" you can see it in my face lol

happy new year guys

>>3269753

3 things btw

1. i stalked out that muthafucka from across the street i autismsly timed that shit look at how i approach him in the vid its almost a joke
2 i ask "can you remind me durr" because i was a philosophy major at the time and the first thing you do in an argument is NO SIR ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THE SAME SHIT do you know what the bill of right is ?
3 which they slanted to make me look like durr

>>3269758

wait you did not not draw that
if you did you sir

you have a thanks from this fappy customer

>>3269769
Yeah, this is my girl, glad you like her

>>3269758
b-blog?

I randomly redesigned an old furry i had, any problems i dont see?

>>3269758
Nice flat girls. That's more like it.

>>3269660
Go away Bum Tickley

what do u say about my anime girl

>>3269838
Cute, I really like styles without lineart. It's really cool, but I think lacks contrast in some parts so the body be more define.

>>3269880
Yeah i thought about adding more shading, but since this was just a quick thing i decided just to go with it.

(She doesn't have a body because im trying to explore different shading and eye styles) heres a random water girl.

>>3270058
Im retarded, didnt add pic

studies i'm working on

fucking kill me

>>3270102
your problem is you're not working big enough. You should have placed down your larger shapes first then worked from big to small It looks like you're tackling individual parts instead of the whole thing all at once.

>>3270115
how, exactly, is that a problem?

That is quite honestly the most vague shit I have heard all day and I have spent the entire day getting fucking pestered with vague shit from the illuminati all day... so that's saying a lot.

>>3270121
you said "fucking kill me"
which means that you're displeased. the only reason i could imagine seeing your tiny ass brush strokes is that it's taking you a long time to finish. idfk man. eat shit lol, fuck...

I live on the edge

>>3269483
move away from tumblr pastel style
There's way too many of them it's gets tiring to browse these people's galleries

>>3270140
sorry for the typo I'm too groggy to type properly

>>3270102
I saw you posting cryptic shit on one dream daddy video. Something about taking your baby away
Are you ok anon?

>>3270143
I told him to go see his psychiatrist last time. I think he has some mental issues or something.

>>3270145
huh no wonder
Last time I checked his twitter, it's full of weird cryptic posts

Can someone give me an example for the head, I have no idea
also is my first time coloring so please be patient

>>3270143
>google dream daddy video
>wish i hadn't
please kill me
kill me now
this is actually a thing

there are form problems, but i was experimenting with face styles. trying to go for an Akira mixed with simpsons hybrid.

>>3270268
are you living under a rock?

I hope this is the thread I can ask this. Does anyone know artists with a similar style to Panty & Stocking or PPG?
I feel like I have an idea of where I want my style to go and I'd like to study some other artists

>>3270269
Well you definitely shouldn't do that

>>3270102
GMI
How many hours are you in at the time of this screenshot?

>>3270102
Fully rendered body and hair please.

>>3270276
thepinkpirate is the only one i can think of

I feel stuck, this piece was for practice but I can't put my finger on whats wrong and where to go from here. I'm not sure what I should be studying and how to go about studying it all I know is that it's still not there.

>>3270276
Deep sea prisoner or funamusea

>>3270276
Panty and Stocking is badly interpreted 90's UPA revival that makes Butch Hartman's horrible designs look genius. Japanese animation meme's (upshots, downshots, heavy foreshortening, etc.) don't work with the style if you aren't careful and they weren't.

PPG is literally the opposite, Craig McCracken knew the limits of flat designs and worked within them so you wouldn't ever see an incoherent mess, look up the model sheets, notes on what not to do everywhere.

Anything to point out before I start polishing it and too lazy to fix it?

>>3270325
I'm a baka.

Trying to do something a little spontaneous and more animu than I'm used to but idk if it's worth continuing

>>3270348
just darken the other eyelashes, separate colors from bg and call it done
any more rendering and it will go into uncanny valley
it's almost there already
the neck is a bit long

>>3270326
how many times you gonna recycle that pose?

is this too ambitious?
should probably sit her on a box instead of chair

>>3270394
get a reference, use a ruler, and just get over it.

>>3270394

Maybe a bench end? That pose would be a bit weird on a chair. Looks super cute so far!

>>3270326

Is this supposed to be a rip-off of Yoko from Gurren Lagann? I swear I have seen this exact pose...

didn't have too much to post lately
>>3270128
literally don't cut yourself
>>3270394
that's a nice one, glad to see somebody trying to do scenes from scratch

>>3270414
dumb brain forgot pic

>>3270415
Don't want to sound rude or anything, but your faces always look like mashed up playdough falling off the face.

>>3270420
okay
please explain
I have no idea what that means
are they too small? too far from the shape of the skull? too messy? too morphed?

>>3269521
cant give any valuable critique cause im /beg/ tier, but the butt looks too glossy. took me a second to realize she was going commando and not wearing spandex.

>>3270276
Gashi Gashi, honey.

>>3270059
The eyes look nice(and so do the water effects) but I don't think your shading practice is going to go much of anywhere if you only shade a face

Also, do you have any wisdom to share regarding your lineless art process? I'm studying this stuff but I don't have it totally figured out yet

>>3270394
Too ambitious? No such thing. You won't get anywhere in art if you don't keep pushing yourself.

>>3270503
Dangit, anon, you literally just color the lineart to match the underlying colors if removing the lineart doesn't work. Practice with some basic forms.

>>3270128
Eyes are a little too high f a m, but everything else is great.

>>3270527
I'm not saying it's a mystery or anything. there are a lot of ways to get this kind of effect and it helps to know how other people have managed to work it out. Why waste an opportunity to ask?

>>3270552
You're overthinking it, dude. It's just an extension of how you're supposed to do "normal lineart" drawing, just with less lines. Have you attempted it at all? Mind if you post your attempts so we can point out what you can do better?

>>3270138
I'll look into that, thanks anon!

Piping hot brownies for those of you who can guess who this is.

Piping hot brownies for those of you who can guess who this is.

>>3270297
I decided to check on this using my tablet and to my surprise there is dark blotches on the face and the face\eyes are really dark in general yet looks fine on my computer monitor. Anyone else see this? Trying to figure if it's my monitor or tablet screen that needs to be adjusted.

>>3270726
It's all relative but yeah the eyes seem darker than normal. What tablet do you have? I got a Huion recently and I still have to adjust the colors every now and then.

>>3270284
>>3270304
>>3270455
Thanks a lot

>>3270307
It was the only anime I could think of that my art sort of resembles in the direction I'm kind of aiming for. But I will look at the model sheets of PPG like you suggested. Thanks

>>3270503
(Im the lineless anon) I'm shading faces to test colours and shading techniques i dont just draw heads :/

The reason your lineless isnt working well is because your over thinking, try just drawing a character without a sketch behind (a really simple one though) and just experiment, i never sketch before i draw lineless because i always know exactly what to do, and can always change it if somethings wrong, just play around with it.

Tldr: stop being so uniform and just play with it your not going to be the best at lineart in an instant, and not everyone do it well at first just try.

>>3270729
amazon fire 8. I completely forgot about my wife's laptop and the pic looks the same as on the tablet. After doing some searching I recaliberated the monitor. Contrast sharpness and gamma were all off.

>>3270629
that my boy 02?

line art done, hopefully this looks good
>>3269497
>>3269482
thanks m8s, hope fully this looks a bit better

settled for an ice cream freezer O_O

>>3271011
Extremely stiff poses

>>3271011
So cute! Do you got a blog?

>>3271011
How is her butt not freezing?

>>3270825
Ayy, have some fresh baked brownies on the house!

Real talk, I need to stop making lazy poses and color schemes.

>>3270558
>post your attempts
I did though >>3270503

>>3270775
>you're overthinking
I mean yeah, but it definitely beats being thoughtless. Thanks anyway

>>3271011
Drape more. That skirt looks like it's glued on her legs.

Where did it all go so wrong

Is this fucked? I worked on it way too long and I can't tell what's what anymore. I'm at the point of abandoning it.

>>3271114
Those are nice! Maybe try using different brushes as well get experimental.

>>3271348
make the layer 30%

then revise it the way "it should look"

>>3271573
That lineart is so clean ouch

Tips for improving the composition and expression? I will begin rendering this tomorrow.

the nipples

hi /ic, tried coloring something

>>3271722
I like it. The swimsuit is a bit strange the way it conforms to her body, but that's alright. People break the rules all the time. The hatching is a bit distracting, and I feel like some edges can be fixed. Overall, good colors, just needs refining to really look its best.

>>3271722

Shift your hues more, everything just being lighter and darker values of the local color makes it look boring.

>>3271348
>>3271498
I tried out your advice anon. I had to redo her head and shoulders from the construction stage and up but I think it turned out better.

>>3271722
robo ham?!

I know he is ugly but please forgive him, its my fault.

Imagination drawing.
No reference challenge.

Any suggestion, critic, shitpost, advice will be appreciated.

>>3271787
I really like the value break down in this. The guy is a bit unappealing but it doesn't really look like a mistake, like you just don't know how to draw a head and face. Do you want to change how he looks? I can't really tell where you're going with the rest of it but I might be able to help with the face if you want it.

>>3271791
Yeeesss please tell me what my eyes are no available to see

>>3271793
What exactly do you want him to look like? Race, age, expression? Any specific things you wanted him to have like a downward pointed nose, thick eyebrows, whatever? And do you want him to be some handsome hero type or rugged and worn or what?

>>3271801
I want a heroic figure.
Heroic face. Hero

That is why I tried to paint strong facial features.
I didn’t use references because I thought it would be easy but no.

>>3271815
A reference really would make this easier though. Is there any actors or musicians or something like that who look kind of how you picture him?

>>3271820
Taylor kitsh

I think he has strong heroic facial features

>>3271741
Okay I think this might be salvaged.

>>3271845
why she staring into space tho

>>3271859
I kept trying to fix her eye alignment and failing. For whatever reason I'm really struggling with this one but I hope maybe after I sleep and come back to it with a fresh eye I can fix that along with any other problems anons might point out.

>>3271722
Hatching is distracting and shoulder-to-hip ratio isn't very feminine

>>3271722
>>3271725
not him but expanding on this you should tent the fabric over the body so it doesn't suction tight into the concave parts.

what should i fix before it's too late

>>3271931
horns aren't attached to her skull but rather her hair - this is more obvious on her left (our right) horn.

>>3269483

I'm trying a more blending style right now, any critique? (I've only started on the hair, face and bandana ill start on the body soon though)

I've strayed extremely far from what I had in mind

>>3272817
It's happening, the rise of the anti-crab

>>3269483
You're asking anons to critique a "style" that looks like teen tumblr art. If you want to improve, you're gonna have to draw outside of whatever that is you're comfortable with, and then come back.

Cartoon/Animation wise, your work is extremely stiff and flat. Your heads are always facing the same direction. You aren't even trying. Try experimenting with expressions, gestures, perspective, and shapes to make your art more flexible and appealing.

>>3272533
I was curious what she would look like if she did lose them. It's not much different.

>>3271011
the girl on the left is trying hard no not fall.

>>3272831
Kek, the shading under the boobs makes it look like she had a botched breast reduction procedure.

>>3272466
damn this bitch is long

>>3272425
what's the problem

>>3271011
This is very cute and has a lot of nice things going for it. Good line quality, expressive characters, a bit of story telling, it's pretty nice.

But >>3271026 is right, they are very stiff. For a few reasons
>Every character's pose is perfectly symmetrical, their arms and legs are doing the same thing.
>Their arms and legs are also either completely straight or bent near perfectly at 90 degrees, very exact and straight angles that kill gesture.
>no contraposto
>There chins, sternums, and pelvises are all perfectly centered and not twisted any sort of way
>Their backs are all completly straight. Girl on the left is tilting a little forward at the pelvis but her back isn't bending at all.

I'm a little suspicious that these are traced Design Dolls. Having worked with it myself they all seem a little too close to the starting T-Pose but having the pelvis dropped a little which also auto bends the legs, having the arms bent or put onto one part of the body or another, and very similar proportions. DD is a helpful tool but adding gesture to your poses will make your work 1000% better.

It's obvious you can do really good work but give a little more thought to avoiding these sorts of stiff cliches in the future.

oh heavens yes!

are u part of an art discord? or art related stuff? may i have an invite if so; @thegreenbeetle#5680

Looking to self critique and get constructive criticism thinking to myself what can I focus on more in general. The generic deadpan doll face is all and well in the sake of practice but I can't tell if anything else in the face is off. The hair gives me red flags in that I don't think it compliments the face (or is painted or rendered as well), I can tell my lack of knowledge for painting hair and so I could focus on hair tutorials but I can't tell if it's a matter of learning and practice or if there's something specific to learn that I'm lacking atm. I struggle with ears and if I had more confidence I feel the ears could be painted/rendered much better. Finally maybe a background would help bring unity and distract from the things I'm not so good at and give an overall sense of completed composition. Any other things to consider would be great help.

Can somebody help? Does anyone know how to change the colour of the skin and hair of a drawing like this? I want to change it to a more lighter shade. I use Paint tool sai, and I try erasing it and doing it over, but that just screws up the whole drawing.

>>3273079
Glad you liked that rushed edit

I'm part of some discord servers but none that I own. Let me see if I can issue an invite later.

>>3273100
Procreate was corrupting the jpg for some reason so I tried the 3rd time with the ongoing option. Sorry

>>3273114
Try color lookup in PS. I think Sai has a color slider for selection like in PS (try lasso-ing an area and press ctrl+u)

>>3273126

>>3273085
Anon it's just a head protrait, you can practise rendering on the however you want, and I'm not one to talk about renders since I'm quite bad at it, but composition is too much to ask for this expressionless face on a (quite) bland design.
Maybe try something bigger, a scene or at least a pose.

The colors are very displeasing to the eye.

Anyone know if dentist kun has a blog, discord, or any kind of social media? I find his art style rather intriguing in a sense.

>>3271295
probably around the time you were born, chief.

Not really an anime style, but stylized nonetheless.

>>3273239

Is the problem the excess lines? Or something else entirely?

>>3273715
Why did I forget to upload the pic?

>>3273661
Tiny arms and small hands on the left

>>3273299
Add 1 slightly darker value to the nooks and crannies. Maybe see Artgerm or Hyungtae Kim for reference. Otherwise, excellent stuff. Also, for anatomy and more realistic shading, Eliza Ivanova is my favorite reference.

>>3273202
Nice face, but fix the anatomy of the neck, knees and boobs especially. Use an anatomy reference.

I can't decide which jawline looks better.
>>3272364
You really did anon, thank you. I was about to delete this but now I'm pretty happy with how it's coming out.

>>3273758
right looks more feminine

>>3273758
Left

>>3273758
Right one fits the style more and has a bit more character. Left one is slightly more appealing and feminine, so depends on what kind of character you're looking for. I personally prefer the right one.

>>3273758
Sh-Shad?

>>3273783
What about it makes it look like Shad art to you?

>>3273758

Drawing snek person

Criticism more than welcome

Does anyone here use Krita for digital art? I've been testing it out since I just bought my first drawing tablet, but I'm having trouble. When I use the color picker, I don't get the exact color I used it on. Instead just a slightly lighter shade, which messes everything up. Anyone know how to fix that?

>>3273865
I've been using Krita for a while and it's been working like a dream. Do you have the same issue on an image with one layer? I've never had this issue.

Hmm. i did just test it out on something without layers and it worked perfectly, guess on my current picture I'd just screwed something up. Thanks!

>>3273873
Are you using layer modes or on a layer with less than 100% opacity? They can screw things up.

>>3273874
I think I had the opacity set down, that was most likely the issue. I had been using one layer purely for doing the skin color of a character, and had stopped midway to fix something else. I went back and color picked the skin-color I had been using and it instead was some way lighter color.

I of course had the opacity set really low so I could see the character as I colored it in.

>>3273851
Bump for critiques

>>3273929
Yer gonna have to wait in line, kiddo.

>>3273936
Let's make out while we wait anon

>>3273954
BAD. BAD ANON.

>>3273962
Emphasize her curve between the hips and obliques just a bit more so we can see that she's a girl.

>>3273962
Hey its me that lineless artist, your really getting better! Also your using a brush similar to what i use lol, it works so well we lineart doesnt it?

>>3273973
Thanks! And I'm still trying to find a good brush honestly. It's really difficult to make it look soft without losing the ability to make defined shapes

the absolute state

>>3273986
o f i see

wip

>>3273851
maybe exaggerate teeth shape make them kinda curve with the tongue for flow

>>3273996
Wow, do you have a blog?

>>3273424
transition from bottom of nose to the main body of it is too sharp - there should be at least one intermediate plane. You've also kept the thickness up to the bridge constant (and therefore way too wide), giving an impression of a snout.

Good concept though, I lreally like the creatures and varying brain textures you have.

>>3273996
how do you manage to be this good yet completely mess up feature placement and proportions

>>3273661
robo ham?!

>>3274011
Insta but it's fairly new @grubage_
>>3274015
Is it really that bad? I was just working off of reference and exaggerating features as i saw fit (eyes,nose) The uncanny bjd doll look was what i was going for so porportion wasn't really my main concern. Is it too late to fix though? I know one of the eyes is pretty fucked but i was planning on fixing it later on. Also ref https://i.imgur.com/b0rNdbg.png

Hey could someone give me some knowledge in this area here?
>>3274021

tl;dr I wnat to have a style to mask my weaknesses whilst still working on my fundamental skills, alot of popular artists aren't that skilled but their style makes their art look good.

So as long as the style doesn't stop me from working on my fundamental skills I don't see any reason to neglect it

>>3274006
pretty neat!! dont stop bby

Which one of you fuckers reported my post and had it removed?

>>3274057
Firstly nobody could admit to that since reporting reports is bannable. Secondly it might have been deleted without being reported because, again, furry isn't allowed here, and it usually gets deleted faster than that one did.

>>3274044
everything is too big man. Even if you were going for doll eyes they're so wide it looks like shit. In fact the entire frontal plane is way too wide

>>3274063
I know, was just being rhetorical. And furry is allowed AFAIK (rules seem pretty archaic and no one follows half of them), but regardless only my recent stuff has been getting removed.

Anyways general CC appreciated. Forgot to put that in my original post.

>>3274057

>>3274013
Yeah, the nose looked way less like a snout during the sketch but I ballsed it up when inking it. Noses are still a little tricky for me.

>>3274057
Your art lacks structure
The brush effects you're doing to paint fur are only crutching you from learning structure

Take a step back and draw stuff to render forms properly

>>3274110
Structure as in anatomy/form? Fair enough, but to be fair, I'm having a hard time finding references of chubby people.

>>3274057
Can someone just please tell me why shit like this exists?

>>3269566
her left leg, ankle is off, the meat between seems too pushed together, not sure how to explain it but overall I like it

>>3274138
that is just some suggestive gay cartoon pic
how does that bamboozle you

>>3274138
same anon who is okay with small naked lolis though

Settled for a nice "Netflix and chill" sort of vibe. Did not have as much time as I thought I would today, but got somethings done.

The first thing is to run this through Photoshop and select fleshier skin tones, then add saturation where the shadows break from the mid-tones.

A paint-over would be most appreciated for form. Color as a whole is still something I struggle with.

>>3274161
Where would you ever see skin getting that red normally?

>>3274163
If you're Irish

>>3274163

>>3274161
Pretty good

Blimey, apparently it IS a bannable offense. That's not gonna stop me, but it was pretty interesting seeing this.

taking the plunge pray for me

>>3274196
>That's not gonna stop me

>>3274199
Stop me from posting furshit, that is.

>>3274202
Yeah. I gathered.

>>3274196
What did you post?

ehh

>>3274224
He posted some subpar gay furry shit.

>>3274161
حرام

nothing to report

>>3274237
Furries should fuck off back to /trash/

>>3274351
I think if you move the eye on the left a little more to the left this will work. It's really well stylized, that eye alignment is the only thing I think it's pushed too far and is breaking it.

>>3274351
I think you'd be a good artist if your faces weren't just all over the place.

>>3274051
this is how artists stagnate and get stuck in shit tier forever, how about instead of hiding your lack of skill you work on your art so you can actually draw what you want

alameda turistica

>>3274237
I like how you specified it was subpar. There's a reason I posted it on an art crit board.

What is a good art-book to download for perspective?

>>3274455
Thanks m8, will find link later

>>3274357
I already know (at least I think) how to draw regular angles, i'd like to venture out more than the average. These aren't products.

>>3274354
All the lolifags should come too.

>>3274196
Funny how quick people are reporting furries, the rule based on a 16 year old boy's meme butthurt, over 10 years ago - who also sold the site to a guy known for stealing and selling personal data.

How many times is this rule broken?

More wip

how stupid is this

>>3274569
Legs are too long but I think it would look better in pixel art form. I could imagine the character in some kind of indie point and click game.

>>3274584
oooh i really like this
gotta blog or sumthin?

>>3274569
Looks pretty cool. Liked to see it pixeled like the other guy said. That one arm is too long though

>>3274624
from the thumbnail I thought that's a beak

>>3274583
>>3274634
Ahh thanks I'm weak with proportions I'll fix it up, never did any pixel art always wanted to try it, I'm not sure how to approach it if I turned it into one

Any crits before I begin finalizing the piece?

>>3274648
Forgot the piece itself.

I decided to change Sahla's skin tone to something a bit warmer/tanned. Minor adjustments with the tones.

>>3274651
Is she having an allergic reaction?

>>3274652
No.

Reduced the layer that was the main culprit. May need to lower the eyebrows.

>>3274664
stop posting this ugly shit

>>3274671
stop posting.

>>3274693
stop.

>>3274702
Start drawing!

>>3274664
Just fucking stop holy shit. Go back to your muslim country.

>>3274664
Isnt this haram?
Anyway its alright. Make her irises looking AT something, not just into the void. Maybe a little further back to look towards the man, or looking down towards her crotch. Or even at the viewer. Looks kinda dopey as-is.
Also are should render the guys hand under her head more. And I think the angle of her teeth in her mouth is wrong

>>3274664
What the other anons are trying to express but aren't properly saying is that all the colors you're using are way too saturated. It's okay to have saturated colors in some areas, like maybe a few you really want to emphasize, but having the entire piece so saturated looks harsh and unappealing. You also want to aim for having varying levels of saturation, like desaturated light areas and saturated shadows for example. The contrast against desaturated areas will also help the saturated ones look brighter without having to be as saturated as this. Check out some stuff on color theory, especially where temperature and hue shifts are concerned.

>>3274867
First revision. Let me know what checks out and what doesn't.

Fixed the expression and de-saturated the background and couch for the sake of visual clarity.

Thank you two for your excellent feedback. It means a lot to me.

Would like some critique on this, its my most recent drawing.
Been drawing since last august and practicing almost daily to improve so any advice is welcome.
Its a WIP btw, was gonna finish today but I took the day off to learn some basic stuff I still need to learn.

>>3275062
Would have been better had you restricted this to a bust shot. You strapped the arms of a small child upon a grown woman. The shoulder line lays roughly at 1/3 head length down from the chin. The elbow sits at or slightly above the naval line, depending if you want your figure to be core or limb dominant. The hand, at the finger tip, lies past four head lengths down, past the ball hip joints (formal name escapes me).

Beyond details such as the hands looking like snippets of cloth wrapped around her hip, to the general lack of form, the best thing I can recommend is to post proportion and gesture studies.

You simply do not yet possess the skill for anatomical work. A lot can be accomplished, foundationally, in three to six months. What are you willing to commit, time and resource-wise?

>>3275069
>>3275069
Hmm not sure if it makes a difference but I do like to draw my female bodies more petite.
And I made her boobs larger than it originally is, so a good part of the chest should be hidden by them. And the left hand I just didnt bother to fix yet.

And I'm willing to commit anything. I am ready to starve to death if it means becoming a well known artist. I'm taking it as serious as I possibly can, so gimme whatever you think I should do.
I have fun drawing but I also NEED to improve.

>>3275079
The proportions have to adjust as a result to represent a petite character.

I strongly recommend Proko's free videos in Youtube as an excellent starting point, beginning with three weeks of gesture, bean, and landmark studies with the help of Quickposes.com.

By all means, post them on the forums for critique.

Intersperse those with basic shapes, graysvale value studies, and Loomis head drawings (to learn to draw the head in proportion, and in perspective).

If you are willing to study up from two to three hours a, I would divide that into thirty minutes of torso bean studies, thirty minutes of 30 second gestures, a full hour of two minute gestures, an hour of figure landmark studies, and the remainder of your choice of basic shapes, values, and perspective. Preferably a little of each.

A considerable time investment, but a good introduction at no monetary cost.

>>3274985
>>3275062
Another reason that loomis, anatomy and figure drawing is a meme. No matter how much you know anatomy, and of the like, you won't ever be able to capture appeal unless you consistently are able to self criticize yourself to know what to change and what not to change..

>>3275140
I been checking tutorials Youtube all the time so I will give that channel a try too. Thanks for the advices.
Also one question.
Pretty much what I have been doing everyday is: choose a character I wanna draw, make a pose I wanna try drawing in DesignDoll, start drawing using the pose I made and pics of the character as reference, and sometimes I shad and color too.
Is that a good way to practice? I do realize that I should have studied proportions and perspective more(its just the most annoying part for me) but I feel like at least the "draw everyday" part I been doing well.
Also the fact that sometimes I take 10 hours in a drawing annoys me to no end cuz I wanna draw so much more stuff and do what people request of me.

>>3274985
>>3274999
You're welcome anon, I'm glad you appreciated the comments. I attempted a paintover though just to try to make what I was saying about the contrast and balance of saturation and temperature shifts a little clearer. I'm still learning color theory myself and am a pretty shit painter so by no means should you consider this more accurate or a guide, but I think it makes the concept more visually obvious.

feel like I'm stagnating
I should actually learn how to finish my work

I recommend avoiding 3-D models unless they detail muscuature or are Loomis/Asaro models. A better alternative is to download the Skelly app (male only, so you'll need to adjust shoulder and hid lengths and widths for female characters) for poses. Design-doll will not teach you anatomy, but don't feel discouraged from using it for quick ideas.

The best way to practice is begin doing grayscale values studies of basic shapes under various lighting conditions, and throw in some studies of fruit here and there. Construct simple shapes in perspective. After you solidify your grasp of that, you will understand how to cast shadows. That will be important for detailed character designs.
