/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

I dont really have any questions or anything just posting cuz why not

>>3890532
Really like where this is going so far. Is there a secondary light source behind us/the camera? I'm guessing some more sconces

Anyway it looks really nice anon

Trying to get better w/ quick sketches
Any and all advice is welcome

>>3890532
Fucking fantastic

>>3890532
Please give me your blog. Please don't only have an instagram.

>>3890732
Nice

>>3891356
I think the main thing setting you apart from RJ is:
>The lack of edge control
For example, the legs don't really stand apart from the grassy background and it doesn't really carry that weight that you need, especially in terms of lighting.
>Colour theory
There are loads and loads of subtle colour variations and I think that if you were able to mimic it more, it would make your work pop out.

>>3891583
Thank you! I think you're totally right. I'll work on my edges and colors more.

>>3891597
Keep working I like seeing your improvement

hehehe

>start a sketch
>looks like one of my best so far
>finish cleaning up the lines, start colouring it
>kill it with my braindead ability at digital colouring, delete the image
it's a rollercoaster of emotions

Done

>>3891773
How did you create the backgrround texture?

>>3890532
Oh damn what's the reference?

>>3890798
Reminds me of sergey kolesovs new style, really interesting

>>3892226
digging the costume design here man

>>3890525
any tutorial/book you can recommend for feathers and hair stuff good sir?

>>3890525
Wip
Not really happy how this ends up looking, the pose is stiff and design is not solid. Happy with rendering tho. Need to adjust colours on skin too.

>>3892599
nice study karoon!
>>3890798
blog?

>>3894079
Don't know how far along you are, but the greens and reds seem a tad intense and cartoonish for the rendering, and the color of the fur might be too solid. I'd break that up a bit.

study, original painting wojciech kossak

crit would be awesome

Some WIPs

>>3895540
2/3

3/3

>>3894813 you guessed right, thanks man! I like the hues on that face, (especially the nose) but I feel like the overall contrast is a bit strong; making everything stand out (In the paintover I muted the less important features so that the face would pop out.) Of course its just a stylistic choice, but thats my 2 cents.

Cellshade Progress

>>3895601
It's cel-shading with one L because the sheets they first used for it were called cels

>blog?

fuck you guys, seriously

>>3895636
from celophane?

>>3895561
Wow thanks!

>>3892321
No ref. Though I'm going to reference 1700's-y clothing

>>3890580
Themichaelmacrae on insta and whatnot

I've always had issues with faces. So taking things the hard way and doing expressive studies seemed like the fastest way to improve

>>3891606
> I like seeing your improvement
do you know each other?

>>3897017
Very few people draw on this board. Styles are instantly recognisable.

>>3897024
hmmmm,....
I haven't seen him before

lighting is hard. basically wip but im tired of working on this one

>>3890532
hard round gang
>>3890732
>>3890798
>>3895652
really good shit, save-worthy

>>3896840
fuck off mdj

>>3896786
i went to ecu with you lmao

I know not all the characters are the correct size or proportions. does the whole thing flow together or does it just look random af? I did almost all of it without reference so any criticism would be highly appreciated

>>3895652
Really nice anon, keep it up

>>3897284
good start. check the forms of the lower face. mouth stands out as disjointed and unnatural

>>3897318
Do I know you, ya chump?

I've been told a lot to go here instead of /beg/ plz don't kill me.

>>3897523
what reference did you use?

probably not gonna finish this one so might aswell post it

>>3897523

Nice sketch. You have a finish work? Or something you're trying to finish?

>>3897367
It flows, but the foreground is a key area to focus on. Leave space so that the viewer can enter it. No referencing at all?

>>3897800
played around different ideas how to salvage this and came up with pic rel

is it better now or worse?

>>3897963
I preferred the first one. The hair was the most interesting part.

>>3897847
>>3897847
if i need to ill resort to using photo editing software. for the most part no. only needed to reference tien and 18 and 17 to get their clothes right

>>3897980
I see. Maybe I'll get back to it and make it better

I don't know where to take this or how to keep going with it

>>3897367
you should be banned for your posts and pretending you didnt reference for absolutely no fucking reason.

You suck at drawing and this is way beyond your actual ability. It's obvious to everyone so fuck off and die.

Literally, you have no place in i/c. I've been here for 3 years and you are the most egregious liar I've come across. Again. Leave and don't come back.

>>3898114
Try to create a catch atmosphere and work on the face rendering, make it look less bland

>>3898117
>I've been here for 3 years
Ayyye, this isn’t something to be proud of

>Leave and don't come back.
Sometimes i wish that you would leave, but there is always some annoying namefag, and firez finally stopped namefagging so i guess you found your niche.

drew two things. my power level is out of control right now

>>3898147
second thing. any second now ill be world famous, and it wont make me any happier

>>3898137
its not pride by way of senority, its shame by way of rarity.

>>3898154
i've been here for over a decade

>>3898160
Damn... I'm coming up on 7 or 8 years myself. Time really fucks you doesn't it

>>3898117
what am i lying about woah dude chill. i never said i did the whole thing without reference godamn. plz tell me if my anatomy is off or somethin looks wonky... like tien is a straight screencap from an episode ffs, not denying that. but the goku in the middle isnt forexample.

> this is way beyond your actual ability
jesus Christ...thank you??

>pic related, did this on paintwith an ordinary computer mouse. the only referencing I did here was the colors . all the line work I did myself.

>>3898171
>>3898160
post work?

>>3898196
>screencap
>did almost all of it without reference

Again. Kill yourself. You suck and you will never improve.

>>3898196
ps. if you look closesly i think i fucked up the left hand ... :P

>>3898198
like I didn't deny it at all in my op. is copying frowned upon in this community? I didn't trace jesus.

>>3898202
yes, copying is frowned upon. Leave and never come back. You suck, youll always suck and we hope you die whilst giving the suck.

>>3895198
you made his nose point down too much, subtle shit like that can change an entire face asthetic and i think the original's face asthetic can't afford to lose that nose, doubt I'm making sense

>>3897479
tried fixing it, removed all the overlay stuff.
shiz is difficult

calling this one "finished"

>witnessing based nosebro destroy an unbased filthy referencer xerox machine anime artist
gulp

>>3898147
Brian, is this a self portrait? Did you go trans?

i think i bit of more than i can chew with this one

>>3898117
>I've been here for 3 years
and still shit btw

ngmi

>>3898238
>copying is frowned upon
ok cool. not sure why since artists copy from real life anyway but ok. maybe this will tickel your fancy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67fhl4RqZmA
otherwise quit being being so edgy, jesus dude...
>youll always suck and we hope you die whilst giving the suck

>>3898238
>”we”
Is your life seriously that pathetic that you act as if this board is part of your very being? That you’re some sort of figurehead for it? You’re one of the weakest “recognizable” artists here. Your shit is akin to workbook doodles. You are in no place to give anyone critique or advice. Chill the fuck out.

>>3898238
The autism is unreal. Post a drawing already, fag

>>3890525
I just realized 4chan changes "desu" for "desu"
what the frick

>>3898693
He's trying to tread on potential competition, don't worry, you probably draw for fun. Keep going dude, using reference is never something you need to stop doing if you don't want to. There is seriously no reason you HAVE to draw from imagination, not a single reason. All about what your own goals are.

>>3898822
Imagine being this new desu

Drew some buildings

Kamasutra

>>3898911
Very nice, but it could look more solid if you drew slower around corners and details.

>>3890525
Tried rendering a doodle Dave Rapoza style, too lazy to take it further desu

>>3897318
Please god I need to know aah

>>3896840
I tried some more, are these better guys?

Dog. But big. And horned.

>>3898117
Chill my nægro

>>3898995
poor technical skill but still has an odd charm to it

Is that color palette alright?

Giving the advice a try to only do a rough sketch before adding color.

drew a face

did a painting

>>3899494
No. It’s clear that you are putting no real thought or construction behind these drawings, so many of them look skewed and uncanny. Rather than just trying to copy the reference as close as possible with line, try harder to understand the form and how the expression can alter them and vice versa. You can also improve by being more conscious of your value choice and where you are putting it. Yes, a quick sketch or whatever doesn’t need to be rendered fully, but certain areas will read immensely better if you put some flats down or even some light hatching to better establish the forms. Good luck.

Thank you for helping me, anons

>>3899494
I think these are actually pretty good...

>>3899494
huh, I never knew Modern Day James hung around /ic/

Drew a captain

>>3890798
this is awful. dunno why so many people are ass kissing

>>3900164
NO!!! The left side is better. Why did you change it?

Please tell me you’re lying

Coming down home stretch. (1/4)

I'm near done with this, just wondering what y'all feel about that shock cone... I feel like I've been staring at this too long to tell if it's stupid or not.

>>3900313
I love this so much, well done

wip

a quick one before sleep

>>3900313
the fart cloud behind her and the angry face on the giant fish are really... just... you render and capture atmosphere so well but I think you lose the forest from the trees sometimes with the conceptual details

>>3900187
Brian, is this a self portrait? Are you no longer trans?

>>3900313
Add some more color/contrast! Amazing work by the way.
This is excessive, but detailing the background fishes would really make the entire work pop.

>>3900313
Dynamic.
Even though its really well done, Its "blink and you'll miss it" with cones, thats what makes them seem fast.
Perhaps the speed lines/raindrops(?) and the outstretched ball on the line are telling enough of the speed.
Its thrown off by her pose. Reaching that level of fast requires balance and streamlining, both for which she is not best positioned (weight is a bit scattered); I think the danger here is more important than the speed, which you've nailed.
I have a feeling the character will look more integrated without poofy on her ass.
Maybe birds lagging behind, or one of the sub fishies biting the end of her broom(?). Or nothing at all, its wowing everyone as it is.
Blog please, I want more.

(2/4)

thoughts?

I'm new to painting. This one is a big step forward for me

/ic/ this is so dumb but i need help. i was fucking around and ended up with this but i feel like i have seen the exact same picture before... its all from imagination except the hand that i ref'd off myself. ;-;
does anyone get what i mean when i say that or have felt the same way before? its making me sad.

i made this sheit

>>3900117
Thank you for this feedback. You are very right, and going for a more constructive approach as I move forward should help more. It's just really easy to stop looking at them as faces after a while, and just look at them as shapes.

>>3900179
>>3900186
Thanks for the compliments guys. I like his art so this is quite flattering lol

This is just a quick weird thing i started yesterday

>>3900689
Great values and form. Be careful not to polish too hard.

what do you think about the overall mood? does it look good?

>>3900726
is it better now?

>>3900746
Yes
It's not bad, add some contrast to the piece of the body and add some detail to areas of light. Of course it depends on what you're going for.

Work in progress for something inspired by those tacky 90s photo studios shootings

>>3900755
crap, i used the oldest wip pic, apologies

I don't seem to go forward with this, any advice ic/ ?

>>3900798
Move on to next piece?

>>3900798
This looks really good, well done. I think you could add some kind of detailed border going across the top edge and leaking into the sides ? And maybe reference the Game of Thrones symbols like the stag and lion. Unless that’s not your thing

>>3900798
Why are they all sun burnt?

>>3900817
Dude it’s the lighting, you can see it reflecting off of The Hound’s hair. Not the op

>>3900806
I tried and I can't think about anything else but finishing this. . .
>>3900808
Thank you, it is still a WIP so I appreciate any advice! I'll try the symbols. . .even though I'm bad at anything but portraits
>>3900817
I'm trying to keep the original skin colors for each character, plus adding a bit of orange light. . but they do look a bit dark, that's true

>>3900831
I, personally, don’t think they look dark at all ! The lighting is applied really well, you made a brave choice going with such a strong colour, and you pulled it off great !

>>3900845
Thanks for the compliments anon, I prefer high contrast in my images and love the warm tones, but I still have to learn a lot! I struggle with getting the right lights on everything. . .it's hard for me to think in 3d. It's good to hear some feedback!

>>3900854
Yesss same here, I love high contrast in my art, but sometimes I do get carried away and ruin the drawing...

stuck at this point

chicken scratch

wip

>>3900580
Short, dark hair.
Maybe something from Kuvshinov?

It's pretty generic desu so hard to say. Learn to draw form before trying to add value. You can work on multiple things but you are not learning anything by trying to shade something flat.

>>3900313
im not really too much for the steampunk-ish subject matter, but the sense of direction is amazing. well done.

>>3900313
fishe

>>/ic/thread/S1435331

Good to see draw threads haven't really changed in the past 6 years. Mostly /beg/ stuff, some decent artists, and one or two really good artists.

>>3900461
Calarts trash.

>>3890525
If anyone could hook me up with hand reference or a redline for the position of the hand on the arm, that'd be great. I've redrawn it at least 40 times and despite usually being able to knock out some respectable hands, it just is a perpetual turd right now.

>>3900313
How big is your working canvas?

chicken scratch 2

Anything to critique on this that isn't just saying it's trash?

>>3899861
Color can actually be very flexible of you use a unifying overlay color (traditionally called a "glaze" where a very thinned layer of paint is placed over an area to bring the color underneath closer to the thinned color) or a bottom layer color wash to help harmonize whatever colors you're using.

Marco Bucci and Proko both have really good videos on this. Proko's video with Court Jones goes a step further on how to digitally apply the concepts discussed in Bucci's video.

Bucci: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LhcNbFMkTw
Proko w/ Court Jones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Dbf63YnkeA

In short, do not be afraid of "picking the wrong color". Instead, understand that color relationships are FAR more important than the actually colors you pick. You can paint an apple red or green, but you need to know the surrounding colors, the amount of saturation, and how the colors will merge into each other to create harmonic pieces.

Decided to start over from scratch.

>>3901146
I loved the last one, but this one is even better !

>>3890525
Do you like it? :)

>>3901146
youre trying to copy ruan without understanding light, form, color and composition. youre covering all that up by using that shitty sponge brush that comes with photoshop, and youre not evening using it properly, ie the shitty blended edges. you do realize ruan renders with a soft brush right?

Quick sketch of a Bookat annoying fairies by sleeping on their favorite place to chill. All this because I saw a cat sleeping on books in a bookstore with a friend,,,,

>>3901165
I'm just doing the best I can in a style that I enjoy with a brush that I personally like the texture of.

So, give me a quick overpaint and illustrate my shortcomings so I can actually learn from your critique. Just telling me "you suck, practice more" isn't really helpful, because I already practice, just maybe not in the most efficient way because I still have a lot to learn.

>>3901165
You seem like a cunt

>>3901187
>Just telling me "you suck, practice more"
that is literally not what i said

>>3901211
You said my fundies were weak, but you didn't explain how, nor did you provide an overpaint.

So yes, it was in fact just a fancy way of saying "You suck, practice more. Oh, and use a different brush, because I don't like this one".

>>3901146
Keep it up man, i like it

>>3901225
i did't say anything about not liking that brush, i said you dont know how to fucking use it. and knowing your dumbass, you wouldnt even take the crit or even know how to use it even if i put the effort and time into it which you dont fucking deserve you fucking projecting shitskin of a human.

>>3900689
Can we be friends?

>>3901241
What're you getting mad for, dude?

>>3890525

Last thing I worked on using just your average BIC pens on vellum surface Bristol Paper to get that soft fuzzy like texture.

>>3901165
>using that shitty sponge brush

wtf did you say about my favorite brush?

>>3901146
Patience is a bitter plant, but its fruit is sweet. >>3901225
Talk does not cook rice.

>>3901251
your ignorance.

>>3901146
That's pretty cool anon, I would suggest downplaying the texture of the brush on the background down the line, as it is now it generates too many details and makes it distracting. The hair could benefit from bolder shapes to make it more readable too.
Also, consider aplying a little bit of dark ambient oclussion shadows to some of the objects for the same reason. And maybe the colors are too homogeneous, you could try a little bit of color abstraction.
Maybe some of these things you were going to fix down the line anyways, but I wanted to chime in.


>>3901241
>>3901165
>>3901211
That anon is right, you are just another idiot that repeats "fundies are wrong" everytime he sees something below pro but can't actually articulate any meaninfull critique. And you can't articulate a critique because you don't actually know shit and you are just larping.

>>3900631
>Thanks for the compliments guys. I like his art so this is quite flattering lol

>art

>>3901322
>everytime he sees something below pro but can't actually articulate any meaninfull critique
saying something looks off is a crit, just no constructive, stop being a fucking pussy and take it and learn from it, not everyone is going to spoon feed your dumbass.

>>3901294
it is shitty, because you cant glaze with it properly, and if you wanted to glaze with it you would have to go over that area back and forth so that the texture stacks up into a solid stroke so that the glazing takes effect otherwise it would just be a retarded texture glaze rather than changing the color of it underneath.

>>3901333
It's not about spoon feeding, is about you wasting space by giving meaningless critiques that say nothing just because you want to larp on /ic/.
If you don't know how imrpove a piece simply because you lack the technical knowledge required in the first place, then accept your limitations and just shut the fuck up.
Saying "huh could be better, don't ask me how tho" is something a ten year old could do, you are not contributing anything by giving that
retarded take and people are correct on pointing it out.

>>3901333
That's not the point. The point is that you're insulting my intelligence by assuming that I didn't realize my fundies could use some extra work. Don't be a lazy cunt, put some effort into giving critiques. I'm not going to praise your miraculous existence for a petty, nitpicky, lazy half-assed, poorly articulated critique.

Stay mad if you like. I couldn't care less.

>>3901384
>>3901357
holy fuck you big fucking babies WAAAHA WAAAH WAAAH SHUT THE FUCK UP

>>3901385
>I'm not defensive guys, I swear.

Just stop larping dude. You don't know shit about fundies and tried to give a meme beg level critique to feel smart. Just let it go and go study so you can give real critiques in the future.

>>3901407
stop throwing these retarded buzz words because you have nothing to say about your shitty art, its hit and it will always be shit. stop trying to defend it and accept the fucking crit because theyre true and youre wrong, simple as that, loser.

/ic/ help a brother out, Currently dry of ideas right now and can't decide on what to do for a composition/background. This is a self-portrayal of my god complex, and I'd like the overall composition to reflect back, if that makes sense

how long have you been working on this piece anon? Like from sketch to now.

>>3890798
Good work, I'd explore the colours a bit and add warmth in shades, coldness in halftones and the reflections

>>3902692
Oof... 7 hours ?

>>3902722
If you streamline the process and cut the time down to a couple hours, you've got a real chance at making it! You've got an appealing normie aesthetic going on.

>>3901182
Still haven't gave up.
>>3902431
Thanks anon,,,,

Any advice to get faster? I want to do commissions but I’m afraid I won’t be fast enough to make something people want and also make money doing it.
>pic related of current WIP

>>3902749
Pic is upside down because I’m retarded. I’m sorry.

>>3902737
Awh shit man, thanks. I want to try and go beyond the normie aesthetic though, like Kawacy- he appeals to normies yet there’s an undeniable deeper concept to his work. Thanks for the idea, anon

Been practicing a lot, draw every day, fundamentals and all that. I’m hoping that I’m getting what I’ve put in for the year. Given this progresses where should I be in another 12 months?

a quick study

she's all that matters anymore

>>3902808
Stop using the airbrush to shade. Learn color theory. Learn anatomy. Draw traditionally till you can do good anatomy by hand before learning to paint. If you had bothered to do that in the previous year you'd be much further than where you are now.

>>3902912
Got cha

Am 19, recently got back into drawing, used to doodle around when I was like 10. This is like my fourth portrait since getting back into it. Any tips?

>>3902982
more specifically any tips for hair?

>>3902982
You’re on the right track, take things in baby steps. Try using stronger contrasts in values, don’t be afraid to use harsh darks and strong whites next to each other. You could also buy some tanned paper and a white pencil/chalk

>>3902994
that's exactly what I bought today haha, this is drawn on tanned paper. But I do find myself anxious about using harsh darks, thanks!

Her pelvis looks very weird.

No question thread so I will ask here I guess

I'm new to digital, Is there any way to make a selection in multiple layer and cut to move it on all the layers at once?

>>3902977
Nice colors.

forever a doodler

I don't paint very often so I'm sure there are some issues here. Mostly do line stuff. Still i'm very happy with how this one is coming out.

Anyone know any ways to make it look nicer? Probably going to paint some stuff in the background to have it more balanced but for now i'm just having fun with it.

>>3903063
I swear i've seen this posted like 5 or 6 months ago with the exact same comment.

Is this a meme or something?

Did this with a mouse in an hour and change. I am usually a trad fag.

Your rendering improves will improve when your drawing improves. You'll have more shapes and planes to work with.

Been working on this on and off for awhile.

>>3903814
Is it better to use flats when painting architecture?

oil painted skinless human

>>3901416
Post work

>>3904357
I just like flats, but probably yeah. Sharper angles more easily. I find when I use rounds or filberts that paintings of buildings become a little too oil sketchy, and you have to mix too many individual colors. It’s good if you’re doing a legit street scene and not something surrealist like what I posted, cause the only way to really paint cars is with a round brush, but I usually just like to paint the tops of buildings and not make my paintings an advertisement for Chevy

wip, idk what I'm doing, any tips?

Wow! That’s really nice. the whole piece is very warm which is fine but some cooler forest tones could add depth - what time of day is it? How does the light from the sky come down and diffuse? Is he in a clearing?
Great flow and nice lines. Slightly stiff anatomy, just needs some creative doodling and practice to loosen up.
Blog?

Good values! Cute!

Eyes not sunk enough, nose tip too low, ears angled differently, collar too padded (his is more like a suit jacket’s collar). Good study though.

practice gesture and maybe you won't suck so much ass

Oil painting portrait.

A bit nervous here, but please give me your criticism!

>>3905451
There’s potential here - but right now, too much figure drawing and repeating learned shapes and symbols.

It seems to me what you’re doing is creating something based on a style, rather than using a style to represent reality - which brings viewers closer to your work.

I recommend giving Loomis a try, or finding a resource for 3D construction of portraits that works for you. Keep practicing, and you got this.

Thank you, I’ll be sure to keep this in mind!

Gotta agree the smoke seems to be off if you have dynamic speed rain then smoke will do the same, it doesn't look like the ball is spinning and that its the cause of the smoke. As for focal point the contrast at the top of the big fish's head pulls you away from the girl I assume she is the subject?

Been drawing like crazy lately.

Still WIP, hoping to finish this soon.

i dont know anything about composition, but this is almost painful to look at in a way. feels like all my attention is being drawn to the left and the right side is just this big empty dark space.

hopefully a more educated anon could explain

Trying comics again, some thumbnails since I keep getting stumped on certain panels
Trying for a YKK or Kharisma Jati feel, will probably have to change the kid's faces

Trying to draw cute chicks with decent aesthetics, which I'm severely lacking for now. I don't want to go too far into anime faces but I still want to get some qt faces.

Oh pencil, why did I ever leave you.

ignore the teeth. What's weird about the colours in this or does it look ok?

>>3910292
It looks like a plastic doll. I don't know how you did it. It's almost like a photo but it certainly isn't human. Go draw traditionally until you can get some soul into your shapes

>>3910944
>It looks like a plastic doll. I don't know how you did it.
Painting from imagination. Obviously I made everything too reflective, fucked up the tones and so on.

>>3911039
But it's also the proportions and shapes of the facial features. Big eyes, small mouth nose etc

>>3911042
I meant just nose, not mouth. Typing on a phone is hell.

>>3911042
That was intentional though, I wanted to try and use some of the "cute animu" proportions without going all the way if that makes sense.

>>3911051
But the noise and brow and forehead look like a dwarf.

>>3911091
I will work harder to fix this master.

Can anyone comment specifically on the shading, I'd like to draw like Bernie Wrightson

>>3911145
here's the ref

Can anyone comment specifically on the lines? I want to draw like Bernie Wrightson

I got so inspired today.
I've been out of the game for months just staring into empty canvas and deleting sketches and finally got inspired.

I feel awesome.

>>3907247
You're pathetic

Trying some flashy poses.

I've neglected face studies for too long. Please shame me for focusing too much on anime.

The perspective crunch on facial features is alien to me.

>>3902749
your sketches are better than the lineart learn how to render better

trying to get better at painting faces

Trying to learn how to color sketchy drawings in photoshop.
I think my style of drawing doesn't lend itself well to coloring. I feel like my stuff only looks good under a cutout filter.

>>3914058
Compared too...

>>>3897800
i love it but i feel like something's wrong with the symmetry between the eyes? it's a little unbalanced
i absolutely adore the soft shading on that hair though

>>3900340

love it, soft and hazy but with really dramatic values - you did great

>>acting like product placement for modern char designs doesn't speak volumes about the character in question

It does, only monkeys and retards wear clothing with large visible branding.

But you basically put advertisement into your work for free and infringe their copyright in the same time.

nothing in this thread is even remotely good

here is a project I just finished yesterday for a school. I hope I get a good grade for it but I haven't worked on my sketchbook so I probably barely scrape even a C

sorry for the huge image couldn't keep the proportions when scaling down in paint

>>3890525
just finished this one up yesterday after finally getting out of school.

I tried some Impressionist flats before but I got chungking flats today and they are far more pliant. What painting medium do you use - Maroger or Italian wax or somethign?

It'll take forever to finish this painting because I'm using mostly turpentine and I have to call it quits after a 3-hour session

>>3902861
Harryhausen! Cool man

Could a get a critique on this portrait please?

Practicing poses and shading. I'm not sure if I'm overdoing the shading. Knees are hard. Any feedback is welcome.

>>3915596
The left eye is a bit higher and appears smaller than the right one. The hairline by the ear should be more defined. Keep up the good work!

>>3915372
nice, what are you using to color? wish i had something more inconspicuous for coloring and hate pencils/crayons. i usually have like 2 grey copics on me and travel pans of watercolors but it's a bit showy.

>>3914998
why is his brain shaped like a kippah? lol

>>3915624
I love the way you draw women's legs, particularly the thighs. MOAR

Around 1 hour and 15 minutes study from life. It’s really difficult to try and draw the details in such a busy scene...

Do a new one already
