>projecting this hard

Why should anyone hide their pedophilia on an anonymous duck herding board? In fact, people openly admit it simply by posting their loli shit.
Drawing/jerking off to loli makes you a pedophile whether you like it or not.

>>3300072
You're objectively wrong.
Another anon explained it very well in another thread, but I can't find the screencap right now but it goes like this:
People like to say "I could've reached X if I did Y" to comfort themselves that they're pieces of shit who infact will NEVER reach anything worthwhile, same goes for people who never finish a piece to protect themselves from judgement cuz "its just a sketch bro".

These people are generally undisciplined, low in conscientiousness and exhibit passive aggressive and parasitic behaviour. These are the kind of people, who, instead of improving themselves, would rather drag you down to their level so they can feel better about themselves.
Calling people out on this shit doesn't make me a parasite.
Giving false compliments for shitty amine and mango drawing does.

Sketched left one in February '17 after rediscovering my love of drawing. Right one is what I started 2 days ago (February '18 after deciding to try and redo some old pieces. I think I'm gonna turn it into a full concept piece with front, profile and back illustrations + headshots and individual accessory closeups.

Thing on her tail is an incense cage. Figured a neat concept would be that she's a member of a nomadic desert-dwelling race, and when hunting they attach incense to their tails to trail behind the ground in order to disguise their scent from predators.

Still WIP obviously. Need to fix that fucked up right foot / redesign her bow to be more intricate etc.

Try to understand and see the pose as a 3d form. Even in something like Jojo where the poses are exaggerated, it doesn't look that awkward.

If you allign the left foot with the direction of the left knee it would look a bit better, you can either twist the upperleg outward so that you don't have to change the foot, or edit the foot to stand on the balpart, or turn the heel more inward.

Go back to pen and paper. You're doing yourself no favors trying to render, color, etc. when your basic anatomy is severely lacking. Digital can be a powerful tool to speed up the drawing process but it doesn't make you magically better and in your case it's probably going to be a detriment to growth as an artist. Your better off going back to traditional and studying fundamentals for a while.

Anon probably meant that the 2015 is more neoteny. Hence neoteny = better character.
But in serious, your colors are more blander and your line weight is inconsistent. You may have to study a bit more on anatomy since your character is on borderline Sonic character proportions.

I liked the 2015, so I redraw it trying to empathize some of the things that I think make it looks good.

1)Flow. This is the main thing. You did a good job with the head and the hair, almost did it with the pose.

2) Color Harmony: this is something you can fix with color balance at the end, if you can't get right at first. 2015 has a dominant purple tone, 2018 seems more gray.

Anyway I liked the last one you did, watch out the right foot, it's too short.

I don’t know why the others are being so crabby. But I can see that your sense of colouring and form is way more appealing. Also the way the guys are drawn is clearly just thicc, instead of being deformed femnoids. One thing I’d point out is the weird circle thing you’ve drawn at both the knee-pits.

First one is funnier, especially how the eye clips int the ear and the head has a much more definite shape too

the one on the right gives a creepy vibe and that's the designs appeal. if you want to re-create that in your new style, you'd have to push the design somehow for it to remain creepy

just imagine both of them being animated, and think, what kind of movement you'd imagine them having. they are 2 completely different characters, and the left one has a more appealing character to me
