Good mood and strokes, but the dock doesn't seem like it should be that twisted. The perspective doesn't match the girl, since she's mostly in profile but the bridge and water are seen from an upper point of view.

Where's Chico anyway? Did he die?

>>3702541
the bullying got to him

>>3702555
the guy in the op? his work looks like an exact copy of someone els and thats not a compliment considering its a braindead style that anyone can copy with effort

what is wrong with it

>>3702908
I think it's enough
the most is up to the way you will paint it, because good painting can take all the flaws

>>3702894
gotta start somewhere
>>3702877
thanks!

>>3702874
very good, you actually have a style compared to this copy cat>>3702487

>>3702908
I think you should do like 10 more iterations in various poses if you feel like going further with this, or cut your losses and abandon it here and now.

>>3702874
neato

>>3702892
never use black for shadows unless you are trying to be especially graphic. you need a few darker values in here dude. all the tones are practically the same. try adding a few purples,reds and blues on an overlay layer or something on top of her and see if it helps her stand out.

the autism and insecurity is strong in this one

>>3703171
someone's jealous awww.

I've managed to narrow down my problems to my lack of sense of thinking in 3D and failure to understand how shapes connect to each other to create a better form. Is there really no way out outside of picking up sculpting?

>>3703272
blog?

>>3703272
push you are self to draw stuff at weird angles also do studiesss

>>3703171
The OP’s art is nice, why are you trying to put them down?

>>3703281
I've been trying to push myself to do these kinds of studies, but I that I'm falling back into the ditch of doing them blindly or for the sake of doing them. I'm still trying to do them at least twice a week though

>>3703282

if this is ""nice art"" to you, then you will nmgi, might as well draw hyper-realism with your own special touch

why did you get kicked btw

Last fan art for a bit, time to go back to studies. Anything I should focus on?

What is this meme going around that twitter is a good website to dump art on? Also I am still banned from it for being a "russian bot".
But thanks for the link

>>3703464
baby all I want for Christmas is (you)'s

>>3703454
not them obvs but twitter is great cause you can just dump the image on there without being forced to title it or write a description, i can just post some tiddies an be done with it. plus the website goes out of it's way to promote you to other users if you fall into the circles it deems them to be interested in which usually involves your mutuals/those who follow you and how they interact with your work. getting retweeted is obvious but even just getting liked by somebody or having them respond to your work causes twitter to go "hmm, this is probably good content that all the other people who tend to like and respond to similar things that this poster does would probably be interested in". sure, it might not be the best gallery but it's one of the best tools for getting your art out there (tho there are definitely tools to help you sort things a bit more to make it more convenient for those who would like a more traditional gallery experience but that's extra effort and not really worth it for most users especially cause they'd have to explain the system they personally use) but for the main part it's probably the best promotional site out there.

>>3703135
>>3702578
Good shit, I like the linework you do to suggest the shapely legs.

>>3703272
I took up 3D modeling and printing to do shit, since it helps to look at actual objects. If you can't do that, do some drawings of dolls, for the anime aesthetic and some structure. Doll joints are cute, and basically the concept of connecting shapes together to make a girl.

He's saying it in a stupid way but honestly what he has to say rings true to an extent. There's nothing wrong with copying people's style in order to learn from it but when it's patently obvious who you're copying an artist wholesale it really cheapens work. When people try to take all aspects from a particular artist's style which are easily recognizable, they just end up looking like a bootleg imitation. Understandably so since Rei and Yamakawa have really strong fundamentals and small stuff like how the copy renders cloth or how they treat certain edges gives away the gap in knowledge between source and copy.

People try to copy krenz all the time but no one tries to copy *exactly* how he draws and renders. They just take ideas-- like his warm grey color palette or exaggerated saturation at terminators. If you tried to copy krenz in all aspects, you would fail, it would look cheap and everyone will know who you're copying.

I've given advice to OP before and seen them grow over time. They really have become much better at emulating the style he's looking for. I just hope he knows what he's getting into by only doing work like this and posting this stuff as his finished artwork. Of course, everyone's goals in art are different and I'm no authority on how he should or should not make art. It's just my selfishness that wants to see more of his own voice shine through. He made it this far already, it would be nice to see.

thanks anons uwu

I made her arms longer but now I fear they're a bit too long, also any feedback regarding the perspective is very welcome

>>3703040
thanks a lot for your input anon i'll try

>>3702894

I love that 1px usage. it's my favorite tool.

please make the room piled full of clones
>>3703876

>>3703916
makes me want to puke frend. The forms are well done, but it really makes me feel a bit sick

>>3703979
that crossed my mind, I want to try but honestly don't think I can pull it off

>>3702874
nice. im almost convinced you know what youre doing

keep practicing anon kun

>>3702571
>direct copy of someone else's style
yes

>anyone can copy it
no. at the very least he's been working hard to carbon copy that artist. it's just a shame he didnt add anything of his own to it to really make it "his". you know

>>3703981
Thank you. That means very much, friend.

>>3703996
may I ask why you are drawing these? I have seen a couple and, again the forms are really well done but the forms themselves and the colors are literally sick, It really does a good job of evoking that feeling; but what is your motivation?

>>3704000
I'm not sure, I just do. Can't say there's a particular motivation. I really like muted colors I guess. Thanks again for the kind words though!

Should be done tomorrow i think, what should i do for the background?

Both from ref

>>3704041
v cute
post the whole image

>>3704041
CUTE!

>>3703876
>>3703979
Okay I am tried, I think this would be as mane as I can do.

Should I keep em or scrap the idea?

hi /ic

been awhile

>>3703817
Which discord?

>>3704076
Copy that

>>3704076
>>3704078
it's you!!

>>3703868
thanks for the kino babe

>>3704048
like the light application of color on the girl, nice

>>3704048
i thought it was inuyasha for a secthere

>>3704068
i like it, imo it adds a lot to the image, just make sure the original urotsuki stands out somehow if you do decide to go with this version

>>3704068
that looks so cool. i don't have anything to add about the art but this reminds me of a transformers movie scene https://youtu.be/hzNsOGt3bHk?t=124

>>3704103
you earned it

>>3704180
big manly hand

I don't really see where else I can take this, so let me know what you think.

>>3704230
Left side lower the tits they look like pecs there

>>3704231
Well, they are supposed to be small. So maybe give them more volume, or is the shape wrong?

>>3704232
not him but i think he's saying that they look more masculine than feminine.

>>3704258
>>3704232
what im saying is they are too high on her chest but yes volume as well to match the figure on the right

I have a question. I've never seen good fanart for flcl. What makes that style so hard to emulate?
I recently watched flfl alternative and loved it and looked to see if there's any good porn and there is literally NONE, why do artists struggle that much with this particular show?

>>3704274
More like not a lot of people care for the reboot given that it has none of the staff that made it great in any department that isn't audio. There was a little hype, but once it got out that's how it was going to be, it died down fast.

>>3704301
There were actually two reboots, progressive (the shit one everyone hated) and alternative (the one that looked amazing as fuck that nobody watched because everyone hated progressive)

>>3704304
I know, I grouped them together because both had no Imaishi hand on it and Imaishi's storyboards were essentially what made FLCL work in the first place.

>>3704350
Imashi wasn't as involved in flcl as you think.

>>3704390
I don't know what you're getting at there. I literally specified he did the storyboarding, and while it's not like he's the only missing piece between then and now, storyboards are kind of a big deal when they're being used 1:1 with the scenes, which they were in this case.

I've noticed that only 1% of people who post here draw backgrounds to their images while everyone else leaves it blank or just throws some colour behind. What's the reason for this? I only ask because I'm really trying to expand my images by doing detailed backgrounds and it's damn near killing me but so many don't even be concerned with it so I'd really appreciate some opinions on this.

>>3704399
Imaishi didnt storyboard all of flcl you brainlett.

>>3704420
Yeah, only the action scenes and funny moments, which comprise pretty much the entire show. Nice try though.

>>3704401
BG is hard

>>3704121
Thank you anon, I redid most of the figures to try and do that exactly, I am also trying to not cover too much of the background since I spent a lot of time on it ;_;
>>3704124
thank you, and thats fine frend

>>3704450
keep going! i love it. I dont know who the character is, or if she is from anything, but i like it a lot. I know what you mean about backgrounds too.

>>3704423
Imaishi storyboarded the worst sequences in FLCL.

>>3704492
which are?

>>3704430
I know but isn't it worth it if it adds depth to the image? I feels some huge disconnect here because I'm trying so hard to refine it but barely anyone seems to care like I do.

>>3704509
All the crappy sequences with "so randumb" choppy animation.
All the good shit was by Yoshinari and Ogura. You know the stuff people actually remember.

>>3704516
yoshinari did the cool bunny girl scene with al the cool animation on top of the gun, correct me if i'm wrong: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPowKIC-Q90&t=323s

>>3704514
it depends on the piece anon; if it's just a figure then it's fine if you keep the background a gradient or a plain color; if you want to have an actual scene then you draw a background; I usually decide if I want a background before I start working on a piece; I start with some poses until one clicks and then I set the perspective and start drawing blocks to define the stuff in it; then its just adding details; desu drawing backgrounds is the same as drawing figures; I think a lot of people skip bg because it makes things take a lot longer and things can become cumbersome; I stopped drawing for a like a month once when I got bored and overwhelmed by coloring a really complicated background.

>>3704516
I see, he sucks then lol

>>3703116
pretty dumb to sully a good character like that, like what's the point, fans will only get cringed out by it. What's even more cringe is that westerner kana in the upper right corner..

Also check the list on /cos, fromsoftware games are well known for not allowing any sales of prints and merch, heck even police were called by staff after some people were selling their small fandom comics from popular ip's

>>3704516
So, the good scenes.

>>3704401
I always try to add a BG of some sort, can give depth, enhances the light source and can tell a bit of story

>>3704551
giantess anonnnn uwu

>>3704401
If you feel it would be beneficial to your pieces then spend the time to do it. Drawing backgrounds when you can will make them easier to do over time, like training yourself to avoid hiding feet and hands. Why are you basing whether or not you do something just because a few posters on /ic/ aren't doing it?

>>3704520
Fair enough thanks for the info.

>>3704551
That's how I feel as well.

>>3704575
>Why are you basing whether or not you do something just because a few posters on /ic/ aren't doing it?
That's not what I'm doing at all I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. I do backgrounds regardless of what /ic/ is doing I was just curious as I come to these threads often for inspiration and I just wanted to understand people's reasoning for doing a background or not as I'm genuinely interested in everyone's process.

I can't quite nail the location of the back hind leg. :/

WIP, kinda feel like I'm getting the hang of this painting thing.

KINDA.

>>3704401
I'm a lazy shit

My 1st attempt at blending, I have been struggling to make my butts look less flat, dont know if its noticeable.

>>3704551
very nice

>>3704786
Let me tell you anon, there'll always be room for improvement but this butt looks pretty good.

My art style is boring and very tumblr/steven universe and I don't know how to develop my art style more

>>3704816
You dont develop your own artstyle, it will come later as more you draw.

>>3704186
Thank you anon, I tried to fix the hand.

eugh my brain's too frickin tiny to work in colour
>inb4 only draws heads
s-shut up

>>3704401
If you look over my pixiv I have quite a few with backgrounds in them, but recently I have really been pushing my rendering and figure drawing so I don't really think its necessary.

That being said, sometimes the focus is on the character and sometimes its the character in relation to their enviroment.

decide to try my hand at a more anime style, idk how to feel about it

>>3704993
is that a bulge between her legs????

>>3705002
you dont know where you are do you

>>3705002
YES

>>3705002
it's the best part

>>3705003
>>3705004
>>3705009

>>3705007

>>3702517
I don't like the perspective/angle/composition, seems flat to me

>>3704667
All done

>>3705024
>>3705007

Okay I changed the breasts on the lower left, changed the canvas size, and pulled some of the red out of the face.

Serious question I am looking at my phone, and 4chan and my picture looks different color wise than it does in clip studio. Does anyone else have this problem? This has happened several times and I am not sharp enough to catch whats happening but the reds are coming through more saturated between when I paint vs post my art. The other colors seem to change as well in some of my other pieces. Is it the resizing?

>>3705053
ok now you see the tits how they are curved. you keep making them flat on the left, thats why they look like pecs

>>3705061
Aww yeah anon, thank you for pointing it out.

>>3704450
I think I pulled it off uwu

>>3704457
It is a recreation of a scene from a video gaem

>>3704060
KIKE.

>>3705256
wow frend that is very well done!!!

did you also draw the animals on top?

>>3705258
Used a ref, but yeah. Not for the direct pose, but just to get a jist of what the animal looks like.

>>3705255
ayy lmao

>>3705259
You did a great job desu, you really know your forms very well frend, the head and the tail look very cool and the pattern is also really interesting.

Only small thing i would point out is that the giraffe's neck is very small

>>3703764
OP here, i'm still consider myself a newbie at this stuffs and there're a lot of stuffs i need to learn still.

I plan to deviate rei style a bit anway because there are some elements in her styles that i don't like.
For now, i'm happy with where i am and want to lvl up all my fundamentals first.
I hope you can give me more useful advices in the future, if I'm not wrong, you're the one who guide me on how to paint right?

i'm done with this shit

>>3704050
here you go frend
>>3705256

i love these faces so much

>>3705301
the greatest trick the devil ever pulled

>>3702874
this is gonna be the next godoshit
by which i mean that everyone will praise your flashy (planless and with no consideration for values) and you will be stuck never improving your anatomy because wooo flashy colors.

>>3705357
then i hope there's more constructive crits for that to not happen

>>3705357
Normies LOVE colours.

>>3705038
Holy fucking shit blog

>>3705359
i wrote you critiques about your anatomy in the past, all that happens is that you ignore them and get cheered on by your crabby fans on this site who have forgotten what actual criticism is and im just kind of tired of how /ic/ works. you dont come here to learn, barely anyone does anymore. you just post your finished work that you dont intend to edit anymore anyways, this place is basically deviantart now.
want a real tip? stop with these flashy illustrations and sit down and practice anatomy. from photos, movies. just grind it. you will make so much more progress than from just making a couple of drawings over the span of weeks that have poses and colors that lie inside your comfort zone. that (vp) left arm is just broken ,but its masked by the all around look of the colors. which are nice, but also have issues with values.

>>3705363
>i wrote you critiques about your anatomy in the past, all that happens is that you ignore them and get cheered on by your crabby fans on this site who have forgotten what actual criticism is and im just kind of tired of how /ic/ works.
i think you're mistaking me with someone else, i've barely ever gotten any criticisms. if i post here it's to get help it's not like this board has a huge audience

Would have actually drawn something more substantial but I've been sick.

>>3705357
>godoshit

I probably sound nickpicky but does anyone else sometimes unfollow artists on Twitter if it feels like they post memes/video game/gatcha pics way more compared to their art? This is why I'm still grateful "galley" art sites like pixiv still exists.

>>3705357
>by which i mean that everyone will praise your flashy (planless and with no consideration for values) and you will be stuck never improving your anatomy because wooo flashy colors.
finally someone said the thing i've seen saying about my art all this time

>>3705404
sorry, i don't actually draw all that often

(but i play mobage everyday)

>>3705404
I could look at their media count and immediately know whether to follow this person or not. For example, people with more than 1k media count on twitter

>>3702874
blog????

>>3705363
>you just post your finished work
but he did post his WIPs

problem is no one wants to critique wips
then, and i've seen this happen a dozen of times on /ic/, after the piece is done everyone is suddenly eager to point out mistakes

>>3705473
case in point >>3696354

>>3702874
How do you layer colors on top of each other?

>>3705473
I guess while criticism should be a given, people who post WIPs could try asking if anything needs fixing, or point out what parts they're unsure about while being extra accepting of criticism. With WIPs it's sometimes hard to see mistakes or when there are one assumes they'll be fixed after refining.

>>3705509
Cont'd because I had a thought.
If you're desperate try samefagging and giving wrong or vague crits. Sometimes people will notice it and start getting engaged with the piece, leading to legitimate crits. I've noticed this happens with poor redlines a lot.

>>3702487
How do I make use of line to make the sea on the right look like actual water? Right now it looks like no man's land.

>>3705518
Try looking at real ocean shores and how light reflects off that, recognizing the zigzaggy patterns then ink where there's no light. Right now it looks like a field of grass.

>>3705289
dark and saturated skies make me cum

>>3705180
i envy your construction and perspective skills uu

Can anyone give me a quick redline? It doesn't have to be anything fancy, but everything feels stiff and I can't draw these arms for the life of me.
Thank you so so so much in advance and sorry for taking up your time.

>>3705578
i see you’re trying to get your entire gesture in an icon size template, but i feel like you’re shooting yourself in the foot with that. the arm is awkwardly close to the body, etc. try extending them out just a bit

>>3705599
Oh that does look a bit better, I'll definitely adjust some things. Looking back at the original image, it does feel cramped. Thank you anon!

>>3705578
this is sans isn't it

>>3705628
No, sorry anon. Just a faceless person in a hoodie for a friend. Hoodie has a specific design on it, but I promise you it's not Sans related at all lol

not really a fan of lewd art, but apart from the lewd context of the art I really like these a lot, nicely drawn and nicely rendered imo. really like how you rendered the skin and the jeans in such a soft nice way. keep it up

>>3705299
finally done, gotta get to working on the other zine now

like if i use layers for shading? i only use one layer and maybe a light overlay one at the end, i don't like how using multiply and heavy overlay effects look

>>3706674
draw more mikus < 3333

>>3706676
;)

>>3706676
seconding this stop drawing she-ra and draw more miku and asuka please

>>3706421
But I already have a job, drawing is for alcohol and vidya money.

I'm honestly impressed how good everyone here has become.
I'm tempted to start posting drawings too.

>>3706710
do it, its an order

>>3706710
Don't do it, you will have shitposters on your ass

>>3706710
do it but just ignore the crabs and only respond to stuff that you feel is real critique don't give crabs the satisfaction of your responses

I wasn't sure what to put in his hand.

>>3706121
it did! i like it. I'll forever use MS paint. trying new programs irks me.

>>3705289
shout out to the pigeons. i have 15 at home

Make a new one duh :)

>like if i use layers for shading? i only use one layer and maybe a light overlay one at the end, i don't like how using multiply and heavy overlay effects look
I mean how you decide to build up the paint, on the hair for example. I'M pretty impressed by how volumetric it looks.
Or the marker-ish looking shadows on her shirt under the boobs and directly below the arm pit over the belt

>>3706741
why does your art get more emotions of disgust out of me than my favourite gore manga artist shintaro kago? (I don't mean this as an insult, or that you should stop drawing just being open and honest with the feelings your work invokes in me)

>>3706806
Do you like Shintaro Kago so much because he is best at evoking disgust within you?

>>3706836
his work makes me feel disgust but it's more often than not that I don't feel it maybe because I have gotten used to looking at it

the first time around all his work used to give me feelings of disgust now some of it makes me just laugh, some of it I find actually genuinely beautiful, and some make me think


I guess I like him because his work invokes a wide range of emotions out of me, even sometimes when he is drawing gore I and find humour in it or a message behind it

>>3706806
maybe because its so crudely done? im not sure either, but thank you. ill keep pumping them out in your honor.

>>3704993
Is that a dick?

Instagram is @wowiealli :)

This is my first time really attempting an Asian-influenced style. I've been trying to experiment a lot lately to find a style I'm proud of. I'm planning on doing a series of this with other Pokemon too.

>>3707075
cute!

>>3707075
i love your art and I [spoiler] already fapped to all your lewds

I wanted to do a John Woo-esque pose
Are the sleeves alright though? I had a really hard time drawing them foreshortened.

Do the sleeves look right? I had a hard time drawing them foreshortened.

does this look right?

>>3707150
Her head and left arm looks a little too far to the right

>>3707162
had kinda figured but wanted to make sure, does this look better?

>>3707167
Yeah it does. Cute stuff btw

doing things a little different than usual. feedback?

haha chicken scratch amirite

chicken ((((scratch))))

>>3707148
Cool idea, but the top half and bottom half seem to be in different places. Like she must be leaping backwards for that to kinda work or she will be falling down right. The torso seems long at a glance as well. Cool idea, cool gun and you fags make me want to play your fucking mobage.

>>3706754
maybe not what you're looking for, but that's sai's watercolor brush with decreased opacity, which give it a marker-ish effect

pls bully pls(not when its done pls)

>>3705426
cont.

i really want to know how you go from this to finished. i wouldn't be able to salvage all that mess.

>>3707242
CUTTTEEEE

>drawing cute beach miku

please marry me please

>>3707242
cute. just try to double-check your anatomy in some places. (especially the feet, too lazy to line them)

>>3707344
fuck off

>>3707369
dude its obviously an early wip, back off.

>>3707369
thanks frend. i do suck at feet
>>3707362
:)

>>3707370
:3c

>>3707167
i feel like the neck is a bit too long, and some lines could be made more 3d. still very cute

>>3707370
Yikes

>>3707235
Thanks for the input! I was actually trying to make her jump backwards. Should move the background down a bit to exaggerate it?

>>3707075
I love how much your art looks like it's modelled in clay, like it looks straight up "sculpted" how do you achieve having it look so well modelled that you feel you could touch it?

How the fuck do you dudes do decent stuff digitally? Do you all have cintiqs? I still have the shitty little no display intuos I bought 2 years ago. I can barely draw something presentable on paper but it's even worse digitally where everything feels slippery and can't track where I'm drawing by looking at the pad. I only use the tablet as a glorified coloring mouse, now or to digitally ink my work which I rarely due nowadays. I have some microns I bought a month ago but I don't usually ink with those either because I hate doing lineart. I started doing pretty much pencil and paper only because someone told me to stop being a digital so I could improve a few months ago. Drawing digitally feels foreign now.

>>3707454
>Do you all have cintiqs?
Yes, 13HD is small is shit though. Saving money for upgrade soon.

>>3707454
I'm too poor for a cintiq, but i got a thinkpad laptop with pen, and i use it as a very ghetto cintiq like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHF0UXY_8s8

>>3707229
The nose knows

>>3707454
I use intuos medium

>>3707454
protip: drawing lines top to bottom is much easier than any other direction, but i draw one from the bottom where i need to connect it

>>3707183
very nice colors!

>>3707494
same I use the latest intous but small

>>3707454
it's never the tools it's always the artists, their are animators and artist that work for anime that still use basic Wacom drawing tablets and not screen based tablets and they produce art that is as good or even better than those that use screen tablets. just look at bahi jd he uses an old Wacom model that he got years ago as a gift still to this day whenever he draws digitally. knowing this I never let myself blame my tools and just keep working with what I got.

>>3707512
thats right bitch

>>3707524
Don't get too full of yourself. Your skill is still clearly lacking

>>3707524
ok...?

>>3707524

>>3705180
i really like this one but I feel as if the lines are a bit too thin.

>>3707527
Silence, dog. He's better than most of you. Not better than me, of course, but still puts /ic/ niggers to shame.

>>3707547
they're as thin as they can get 1px; just a thing I struggle with (lineweight); it should look better once finished but I am still trying to find a balance

>>3707561
cringe

>>3707569
I accept your concession.

>>3707454
I still use my old intuos on my ancient lenovo thinkpad sometimes. It's not about the tool but how you handle it.

>>3707454
>I can barely draw something presentable on paper
Found your problem mate.
You should work on getting your draftsmanship up to a level where you could literally draw on toilet paper. Make your weakness your strength and start just doodling on all kinds of paper types and your wacom too.

>>3706624
Looks nice mate. My two cents:
- Symmetry of the face seems off? Especially the eyes position compared to the nose.
- The fringe looks too solid imo, octopuses are supposed to be soft but maybe that's your choice.
- Those annular and auricular are just short anon.

>>3707454
I use a Huoin and a pen shoved up my ass.
>>3707586

That's what a lot of weak minded people say and then end up worse than a Cuck.

>>3707396
i tried editing it a bit to make the neck less long, thank you friend
>>3707593
oh wow the nose does look fucked up, i'll see if i can edit it for my submission
>Those annular and auricular are just short anon
i'm not too sure i understand what you mean by this? could you elaborate a bit further?
>>3708173
you gotta make it look more fucked up

>>3708211
I'm going to make a "real" version but that one is based on the ideal version on the wrappers

What's the point of the sphere and the cross if you're not gonna follow it?

>>3705814
This took you like 2 months right? Move on anon

christmas present for my grandma

is this perspective even correct?
also, what can be improved composition wise?

>>3708252
This one feels like cheating because its so simple. I'm making these to submit to some shirt a day sites/start a redbubble. I love the extrude tool in illustrator so much.

>>3708440
gif breaks a bit at the end but god I love it

>>3708428
The composition looks really nice. If i had any complaint on the perspective it would be that what i assume is the watch tower/ yard arm is too short for the size of the boat. could be that hes just at a halfway point while climbing it. The planes you used for the decks are a bit off but its really nice regardless. The composition more than makes up for any small errors.

>>3708428
this is actually very nice

>>3707524
>>3707527
THAT ISNT EVEN ME LOL

but thanks! can you elaborate on which parts are lacking skill so i can work on those?

>>3708428
the boats should be boat girls, cmon man this is anime

>>3708531
Cute, looks super stiff though

>>3708466
im calling it quits on this one but any crit for future pieces?? i feel like i over rendered the shit out of the hair but i had fun with it and ended up going overboard

>>3708211
Sure, the fingers are short. I guess you tried applying some perspective to them, but anyway they're too short. By the way that should be ring and pinky fingers?

>>3705814
Small balls and the crotch area is just a black hole where hand and dick meets and blends but no crotch. Git good and stop trying to hide.

>>3708600
lbut now the skin needs a more shading because it looks simple in comparison to the rest. also her right(our left) eye should be shorter because the head is at an angle

>>3708466
>>3707183

anyways im calling it quits on this. any crit i can apply to my next piece?

the rendering on the hair was super fun and i think i ended up going a bit overboard. this was referenced off an insta girl's pic btw.

>>3707454
>>3708610
pic is my tablet. i dont think the tablet effects the quality of your art, however it definitely would be nice to have a big cintiq. if you can't afford it easily i would say just get a cheaper one. i think its definitely more of a luxury.

learning to paint traditionally and then going back to digital helped me a lot. you can pretty much apply the same principles

>>3708173
Would eat.

Digital tools won't save you. A stronger artistic foundation is what you need first. Once you have it, you can create using any old tool.
