sketches and concepts-i have trouble finishing things

>>4577567
>>4572596 (You)

>>4572823
You have a point there.

>>4572928
Is that for contrast or is there a scientific reason for that?

>>4577730
Has anyone told you to stop pillow shading yet?

>>4577567
Back to a degenerate OP.

>>4577736
woof woof :)

>>4577737
Faggit

Whitebox here.

>>4577736
>>4577737
>>4577739
This is just getting sad at this point.

>>4577567
Nika, if you're interested learning in horror illustration, check out Keith Thompson, Zdzislaw Beksinski (see pic), Mark Powell, and Joshua Hoffine, Junji Ito, and
Tetsuya Ishida. For something you attempted for the first time, and for an assignment, you did a great job.

Keep it up.

>>4577733
That isn't pillow shading but it's still bad.

>>4577567
Felicia in a failed mimic of another art style

>>4577788
It's not a failed mimic of another style its a failed painting from the muddy colors.

>>4577770
Hey /Last Artist Standing/ discord, don't you have some drawing to do? Isn't constantly monitoring threads and pretending to be other artists getting boring?

>>4577727
Why does your stuff look so stiff everytime? Come on Flipp you can do better.

>>4577730
Not him, but color is relative so it's common for the shadows to be cooler or warmer in comparison to the highlights and midtones and you can exaggerate that in stylized pieces to create a clear and visually appealing contrast. That said, painting outside you often see cool light and cool shadows on overcast days.

>>4577770
Woof woof

>>4577727
wow this is HORRIBLE. fucking kill yourself tsflipp, you are a waste of oxygen and should die!

Plugging away at this dumb shit.
Don't rush your underdrawings folks.

>>4577815
Genuine question, but what's with this 'woof woof' stuff and whitebox drama? I don't get it.

>>4577857
A sperg out session and bout of autism from Wh*tebox that is still ongoing. Somethings are better left unsaid.

>>4577860
it clearly isnt him though, anyone can tell. im guessing its the last arrtist standing guys trying to force a meme. anyway, hide and ignore, dont let it fester.

>>4577857
Whitebox sperged out over porn (specifically the hentai trope of dogs fucking girls) and has been known for that ever since. He constantly makes posts saying coom should be banned from /ic/.
If anyone has a link to an archived thread featuring Whitebox's spergery, that would be epic.

>>4577874
He went as far as making multiple threads on /qa/ to ban porn on /ic/ and have a dedicated mod police the board for anything he didn't like.

>>4577878
>>4577874
wow crazy. got the archive or screenshots?

>>4577889
Unfortunately I don't. I remember seeing him sperg out in real time a while back, but I can't find the thread in the archive. Hopefully some based anon finds it.

>>4577889
Look for this op-pic +- one thread

>>4577896
>https://boards.fireden.net/ic/thread/3958217/#3961380

>>4577904
Also searching for the phrase "woof woof" from the archives will leave you with hearty keks.

>>4577904
>>4577911
>>4577905
Holy shit thank you anons
Gonna prepare my sides for orbit now

>>4577915
This is him continuing to sperg in the next thread
>https://boards.fireden.net/ic/thread/3962187/#3964993

>>4577905
A cringy read but that's definitely him

>>4577918
I suppose this is what caused /salt/ to happen?

>>4577918
So where was it clear that this is white box? I know he's retarded but I don't think he explicitly confirmed that it was him

>>4577928
/salt/ should merge back into /alt/

for the keks

woof woof if you know what I mean

>>4577929
It was clear because he continued to sperg out while posting that stupid short animation of his and eventually someone connected the dots and found the same exact animation short form his twatter account.

>>4577929
Not that guy but choice of words/syntax and general attitude tells me it's him.

People have one style of writing and only a small selection of words, as well as a certain preference or errors in spelling that they carry across posts.

99% sure that's him.

>>4577934
>that stupid short animation
Oh that reminds me, didn't he posted few months ago here that he got a job as an animator in some studio or something and haven't posted a single finished animation?

>>4577939
Not surprising if he's spending a majority of his time working on company shit which is probably protected by NDAs

>>4577939
As much as I agree how utterly retarded he is just leave him alone he's an idiot but doesn't deserve to be doxed and have his gig fucked up by the bout of autism he had here.

Super sketchy but I want to know if I communicated my ideas correctly
Can anons guess what characteristics I used to design this?
Like type of animal, type of fictional character etc

wip

>>4577962
Frog and frankenstein.

Took me a while to figure out what in the god damn fuck was happening with the head.

>>4578021
blog?

>>4578021
Rad ... girl. Is she some bizzare original character, or from something?

At some point i actually was afraid to push the values harder. Not sure what I am afraid of, like i thought the drawing was going to explode or something... maybe I’ll tweak it in procreate

Bad choice B99 for socks, should have gone with B97 - alas such is fate

Tattoos and ripped stockings need more practice

>>4578066
Get out of your comfort zone. Feels like you're getting stale.

>>4577874
Wait, doesn't he draw coomweebshit himself?

>>4578066
Tried to fix it with some liquify and overlay masks

>>4578074
I cant stop playing animal crossing to focus on drawing. This game is a curse. I’ve been struggling to get pen on paper for the past few days.

>>4577849
Why though? I was looking forward to seeing this finished, i really like your hatching technique.

>>4578066
don't really have a problem with the color of the socks although it might look better if you had another spot of dark color, like the hair or hat

watering can really blends into the flowers

Posted in the last thread.
Other than a commission project, I'm working on a game and doing some concept art for npcs and whatnot.

This one is friendly.

And done, too lazy to put more work into this, gonna go eat now.
>>4578236
Creepy

>>4577567
I'm sickened yet curious

>>4578145
Im gonna finish it. Its just the first traditional piece ive done in 3 months of digital painting so I'm really rusty and I hate it.

>>4578137
I dont know how people can play it. Its like 5 mintues of getting to do fun shit and then the game time gates you and I can't fucking stand picking trees and shells all day. There is no conflict in the entire game they just make things inconvenient for you until you get annoyed enough to grind for it. I liked the original but each series has gotten jewier.

>>4578281
Feels Elfquest, nice

Back to drop me monsters off again.
side doodle dump.

>>4577788
Thanks, i would count painting hand in hand with all the other elements when it comes to style.

trash dump

i don't know what to do with her other arm
>>4578289
these monster designs are pretty sick, do you have a blog?

>>4577770
Thank you for the resources :) After my deadline, I’m planning to dedicate a lot more time to studying so I’ll definitely check out those artists then.

>>4578299
This is lovely

>>4578284
You are supposed to play it for an hour a day max and it rewards you in the long run but zoomers want instant gratification so they time jump and get bored of the game in a month

>>4578476
Why not make it shut off after 3 minutes every day then it would be REALLY fun.

>muh zoomers
>implying forcing you to play 365 hours of a game instead of 8 is something you'd want to do with a full time job.

The new animal crossing game literally take features from old games and just puts them behind a time gate to make the game longer I dont know how you could just take that in the ass.

>>4578042
@pantsu_ripper on twitter
>>4578044
it is a commission of someones oc, I do like her design she is cute

sloppy page, but was fun at least

Quick rough.

>>4578917
but why post it and why post in huge resolution

>>4578932
Forgot to change it; when I find the option, I'll be more careful next time.

>>4577949
>>4577950

I don’t know why you would hire a guy that consistently fucks up simple anatomy and perspective and is only considered good by normies because “muh linework” but whatever floats their boat I guess

What kind of setting or background would best fit?

>>4577770
i liked this little video on The Big Beksinski
been obsessed with him for like a week now

I’m going to mess up these dress frills... and I need to ink them first since they are on top, I’ve also redrawn the boobs 40 times

>>4578210
Thanks I tweaked it a bit more before posting the final

>>4578284
I go for economy of scale and clothing. I found a bunch of google docs with flower breeding pattern optimizations and the genetics. Generating passive income from gold flowers and breeding all the colors are interesting. Also pixel art is fun.

creating this new OC. I think I fucked up by giving her glasses-- it makes her face too visually busy, but it's hard to let them go. Design input needed lul

What am i supposed to find interesting in this
>original creation
besides the porn scenarios you're going to put her in for a quick fap?
It's bland and uninspiring.

>>4579946
Just to be fair to myself "anime clown girl with glasses" yields no results on google and I havent seen any clown girls like this myself, so maybe it's not your thing but it's at least idiosyncratic. Let me know what could improve her design, pls

>>4580025
oc means original character. do you live under a rock? people create ocs just to have a cute character to post on social media and make little stories surrounding them. the ""purpose"" is to have fun

>>4580044
Yeah, you know what? I was wrong.
Just post it, it's perfect. Where do i donate?

Just having fun with the process

This is my first time drawing muscles so i hope it reads well.

>>4580113
>why yes i prefer human male on anthro female how could you tell

>>4579699
I lost my way with the frills.

Too many weird intricate challenges: frills, tattoos, ripped stockings - it never ends

>>4580147
This is how you improve so rapidly though, great work!

>>4580147
Wife hates this outfit, she says its inappropriate...

>>4580149
Seems like I can’t just draw something new without previously practicing it. I guess it’s good to try new stuff, but it would be cool if I had generic problem solving skills

>>4580220
thicken them proportions a tad. i love your marker work as usual.

I think all that's left is touching up the values and shapes of the light and shadows. Let me know if there's anything else in need to be fixed.

>>4578623
do you post the same thing over and over? I feel like I've seen this before

>>4577874

Comic project

>>4580678

Anyone know any artists that are good with mechanical stuff? I want to get better with it.

>>4580774
looks pretty nice anon. Not fully mechanical but I like aki001208 (acky bright) stuff on twitter. the contrast between soft and mechanical he does is really cool

>>4580220
I love your AC characters lol how are they so cute?? also nice to see they're giving you inspiration!

>>4580679
>>4580678
That looks pretty interesting and i like how dynamic the poses look

>>4580220
this recent series has made your style more disgusting then ever

>>4580490
why's he a tranny mermaid

>>4580679
so what does it shoot, cum?
besides that, uh interesting stuff

want to depict big things.

>>4580867
It would take a while to write up all the stuff I have going on in the design, but the gist is that the person inside is used as a living sensor. That revolver chamber looking thing is a compact mri like device picking up what they see and displaying it on the screen on the top of the case. I’m not sure what it shoots yet, maybe previously harvested and prepared bone splinters from the same person in the case, for reasons related to why they’re in there in the first place.

I was busy with assignments the past 5 days so I haven't been able to finish it but I refined the lineart now, I'M SO HAPPY HAHAHAHHAHAA I know I used a reference for the bike but still, it's like I made something solid - something worthwhile. This is a special feeling. I'll probably keep using references on the future.

Painting it will be a real pain though, I don't want to imagine it

>>4580964
I dig it, pretty good

>>4580793
Thank you anon, I'll check them out

>>4580967
>harvested and prepared bone splinters
nah, harvest those bones on site till they are a meat suit lol.
Besides that Im intrigued to see where you take this

Teach me how to draw buttocks, papi.

>>4581014
Thanks, gotta remember to zoom out sometimes. I really need to look into old painting of Macross because it seem like a good example to model after for big things.

>>4581719
Tip is to always work zoomed out regardless. it translates the skills better from digital to traditional and really keeps a check on things.
If you really want to do detail, zoom in about 33%. Anything more detailed than that is not going to be seen most likely and unnecessary for the piece. Otherwise you're just going into "turd polishing" phase where yea the piece improves but I feel like you'd get so much more out of starting the next one and figuring out how to do it to-scale by studying masters/it. (not saying to not use small brushes btw, go as small as you want, it's just that it keeps your mind and workflow on track)

>>4580848
>>4581574
andre dont stop posting

>>4581574
why does he need to? its fucking art. why the fuck do i have to be obligated to reply?

>>4581827
Because if you don't, the little bitches in here might take it personally lol

>>4581497
i like how this piece is going anon, her torso seemed really short though

>>4581842
Thank you for the redline! I'll see what I can do

Kept it at flats, since I just want to move onto the next piece and work on anatomy/lineart more. Don't know if i should really be focusing on rendering before other fundamentals are stronger.

>>4581679
>>4581883
Just saw this, glasses are now locked in, a lot of people liked them.

>>4581901
Why is the bow backwards?

>>4581901
very cute expression and energetic pose but the bow is backwards.

>>4581901
do you not know how a bow works

>>4581883
I swear you drew this exact pose with 3 different style of hair altrady

>>4581931
Leave it to a turbochamp to know about what type of gear to use.

>>4581909
>>4581922
>>4581931
bows bend after a shot I literally aplied some feedback I got about bows a while ago

will add some ghost effects to suggest what position it started from, so it doesn't seem that broken I guess

>>4581342
>>4581588
>>4581672
Done with the hatching!
Don't really use any blog but I made a Twitter when I started a year ago or so, should I use that? I'm getting more confident on chucking out more pieces like this one

>>4581952
But why is the string on the entirely different side of where she would pull?
You didnt draw a bend, you drew it completely backward. It's so backwards in fact, that I initially though she was catching a bow someone was throwing at her. Remember to use references!

>>4581909
>>4581922
>>4581931
>>4581983
Different anon, bows literally slide in your grasp after a shot.

>>4581993

I would actually like to see more drawings from you so pass your twit. This piece reminds me of early Dragon ball and Kino no tabi.

>>4582078
It indeed is a homage to both. https://twitter.com/Fave00695304

My twit has been unused for a year but you can check the old drawings in media, I'll start posting whatever I have to catch warm up and also add my new drawings. Lately I make good stuff at least once per week so you can look forward

Started too late, I’ll finish tomorrow.

I’m also too lazy to erase the head for the 300th time and redraw it

Added more meat this time

I’ve missed snacking on your salty (You)s

>>4580793
Thanks! Trying to be productive and draw. There are 440 hours of gameplay that I could have spent drawing.

>>4582795
Can someone, please, explain the appeal of this guy's art?

Been playing Fire Emblem lately. Drew a fanart of Byleth.

>>4581875
I didn't end up doing the redraw from the redline as I wanted to just wrap it up today., I may end up regretting that later but I think I'm done for now

>>4581634
that's hot

>>4581629
Not a crab, but judging from how you handled that, I'd say you're on a bullet train to mediocrity if you decide to monetize your pencil drawings, this doesn't apply if your a doing purely out of enjoyment

>>4585062
yeah and canvas too
>>4585060
they are just default photoshop filters

>>4585173
I wonder to which point do these edits still count as my drawing. The values are way more visible so that might mean my coloring truly was off

>>4585173
different anon but I think just greyscale would look best

>>4585173
This is better, but mute it a lot more, and bring down your highlights significantly.

>>4585219
Alright, thanks for the input
I still wanna show the cool thing though

>>4585173

>>4585227

did the meme and came out more western than I wanted. Any feedback on whether this looks appealing?

>>4585254
I personally think it looks fine. The biggest 'western' thing about it is probably the expression. Eastern animu has very subdued, subtle expressions. Your expression is very lively with expressive lines for the eyes and thicker eyebrows that are also very expressive.

In general, it's mainly the way the linework is done that separates 'real anime' from western art.

>>4582609
its full res alredy. sry...

>>4585269
thanks, that explains it. I'll keep the subtlety thing in mind

>>4582609
its full res already, sry

Fixed the legs. Anything else before I resume the linework?

>>4584186
That’s so kind of you anon, thank you. Although you should probably aim higher than me lol

>>4585113
>>4585115
how often do you get commissions at those rates?

>>4582795
I hate when a drawing spans multiple days, gotta finish this shit already

>>4585829
The white face was a really weird choice. I also found that if you haphazardly lay down too many colors it makes things muddy. Need to be more thoughtful next time

Another WIP. I'm having fun drawing these.

I'm not sure how to do the gold particles though, or particle effects in general? If anyone has any tips I'd really appreciate it.

>>4586025
Cape looks great

>>4586098
It so uneven. Head looks kind of interesting, body not so much. hand do not have much sense but looks interesting, arm kind of not.

>>4585254
>>4585306
The eyebows is what makes it western. But also stop thinking western = bad

feet are hard

>>4586166
Those legs are almost half as long as they should be.

>>4585254
la puta

>>4586098
>I'm not sure how to do the gold particles though, or particle effects in general?

personally i just learned digital through an art class and have grown accustomed to splatter brush + inner and outer glow layer fx
for your piece you can probably mask the shapes, make them each look gold individually then add glow fx

>>4586176
yeaah..

>>4586166
To me she looks unbalanced (like about to fall forward) and the legs, feet, and left hand look disproportionately small. I like the hair

How's my art /ic/?

>>4586197
Very basic but cute and I like it

>>4586179
Awesome thank you so much!

I just want to see how this is looking before I continue cleaning and detailing.

>>4586251
she looks strong and pretty, nice colors too.

Fucked around with some copics, eyes are a bit janky, but I might finish this one.

>>4586251
Looks insipid. This is beneath your abilities, dude.

Thanks

>>4586299
this is a design extrapolated from something I dislike, but I am putting her into a faction that have specific look to them.

>>4585343
casual cryptid in the bottom right

>>4585505
if you truly believe this is "fixed" you are braindead

>>4585505
>>4586025
God the legs are still so fucked. The top half is dynamic but the bottom half completely ruins the flow. I feel like you should really try more gesture drawings because your poses always feel really stiff. (Your hair and clothing tend to look nice though)

Finished two commissions today

you're getting better. keep working on perspective and gesture, you should be pushing further. I dont know if you use pencil yet but i would recommend it, you can let the image rest and then find the areas that you can emphasize. The first image is extremely static so i wont comment on it but in the second one it's apparent that you were attempting an angled shot. Make sure you're keeping every element of the image in perspective and not just the parts that are most noticeably affected (cape, hands, angle of the legs). The face, sword, feet, and pelvis look very flat compared to the areas you focused more on.

>>4586254
That’s some really solid anatomy everywhere except the chest and shoulders. It’s a bit hard to describe in text but the cylinder of the arm should fit into the cavity of the arm pit formed by the pecs in the front and Lats in the back. There is a small wedge where the last fits in between the bicep and triceps in the arm pit on the inside of the arm, but you can ignore that since i don’t think it’s visible from this angle. Also the pecs are anchored to the upper shoulder and far end of the clavicle, that bit directly below the arm pit should be occupied by the serratus. Can’t do a redline from work but kind of like this

>>4586537
ironically, i posted an image that was intentionally
very flat and graphic so don't look to that as an example lol.

>>4586538
Thank you so much! That's the area I was worried about the most. Thanks, I'll fix that before moving on.

>>4585065
Ignore him, he doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about. Your clothing studies look really good and true to how those materials would drape on the human body.

>>4586558
No problem. An actual ref will probably be more helpful than my sketch

>>4586606
Yeah I'm gonna see if I can find a comparable one too, maybe something like grabbing onto monkey bars.

>>4586620
Rock climbing videos are my go to resource for that kind of pose

>>4586537
I seriously appreciate the detailed feedback, anon, thank you. I could feel myself starting to get stiffer and stiffer with the poses I drew lately as well, it's quite frustrating how limited I am at the moment. After reading what you said, I'm now painfully conscious of how unintentionally flat it looks. I think it turned out that way because it wasn't supposed to be an angled pose in the first place, but I kept rotating, resizing and distorting certain selections to the point of it looking very half-assed. Lack of planning on my part ;; I'll keep studying, again thank you.

>>4586541
It's very gorgeous

>>4586567
This.
>>4585059
Is either clueless or trolling. Sharp looking study, anon

I offered a second version of the design. The commissioner chose it over the earlier version.

>>4586690
You cant do taht
You can reassure him and disregard my opinion as insignificant (and I'm not argue that)
if some of it looks to me more like carvings/holes rather then folds and real thing do not do it - it is valid view and amount of my knowledge is irrelevant.

>>4586989
Bad critiques deserved to get dragged more than anything else on this board. Stay ass mad.

>>4586989
Bet this is the same dude who just draws shit loli bodies.

>>4587016
you're always making the same bet in every thread m8

Running out of steam for today

>>4587021
Nah, I wasn't in last thread lmao.

>>4585513
just a handful before i closed down commissions... once money got involved i kinda psyched myself out, trying to make it more than 'perfect'... ended up taking way too much time to finish each piece to make it profitable

i'm gonna open up commissions again but i want to take it easier so i can have fun atleast drawing...maybe opening up a loose sketch tier or something

>>4587026
so you use pixels to hide your skills?

>>4586088
I find the animal crossing outfits to be very provocative

>>4585254
Super cute. You avoided the trappings of the typical ugly western redraws that I've seen.

I decided to have a go at it as well today :-)

>>4577567

>>4587222
Best one yet anon. Blog?

ahahaha what THE FUCK is that arm

>>4581820
I feel like her shoulderpads need to be bigger and higher to balance the shapes and communicate her stance better

Okay let me double check this before I start moving the color around.
Even with reference I still feel like I got it wrong.

tfw want to draw detailed eyes like from anime, but have actual lips like western artists and dripped in techwear
not even sure where to start, my visual library isn't stacked enough

>>4587785
Study artists you like and save images/screencaps of art you like to refer to later.
Save photos of fashion you like and draw those photos. Study clothes folds, palettes, silhouettes, etc.
Draw constantly. Hours a day. Practice, do meaningful studies, mess around, and have fun. Make sure to really put time into learning the very basics. Ignoring them will only hurt you. Pace yourself, and don't grind till you burn out.
Soak up the things you love and with hard work things that you love will flow out of you. Good luck :)

>>4587803
I can do that. I have the time and the willpower to git gud. Thanks anon youre a good lad

>>4587722
This looks much better and could pass. If you want more nit picky critique, the main body of muscle in the pectorals is located closer to where they are connected to the rib cage. As they get closer to the shoulder they lose most of their volume. Currently you have them full enough that theyre obscuring the curve of the clavicle, which doesn’t make much sense for either his build or the position of his arms, which would be stretching them pretty thin across his chest

Forgot the image

>>4587831
>>4587833
Oh I see what you mean. I'll consider tweaking it some more along your suggestion, but if it's good enough I might leave it. Thanks anon!

Work in progress

>>4577849
Made me smile. Keep going.

>>4587843
the flame fur swirl whatever and the small strokes along the skeletons arm ruin the aesthetic a bit

>>4587982
her expression is really weird and autistic but the forearm and hand are the biggest offenders try using a reference

What do you guys think? Is the face too pale? Should i up the saturation?

>>4588134
>Uses Riley method
>Disregards proportions

Ok.

>>4588129
I would push the values on the face in both directions, it just looks a bit washed out so far compared to the rest of the image

>>4587222
awesom!

>>4588134
Can you please learn perspective and visual measuring already?

>>4588162
Hmm i will try, first time painting with this kind of pale tone for skin, it's so hard compare to normal orangish tone

>>4585505
>>4588134
Do you enjoy making art?

>>4587295
Based fellow pinnochio p fan

>>4588271
I do. I would not have what I do now without art.

>>4586513
How much do you charge for one of these? Just curious

>>4588129
look at the reference and figure it out yourself you nonce

I had the energy to go at it one more time. I'm sure it's still not perfect but hopefully it's good to go?

>>4588162
>>4588221
anon dont fucking do this. the less saturated face looks really good with the harsher clothing. if you push the values its going to look boring

>>4589172
What are you saying? A wide range of values is a great way to add interest to any image, it won't look boring. They didn't say to add saturation to the face, just to make certain areas darker and certain areas lighter.
Personally I would go for pushing the lighter areas of the face way more and push the darker areas just a little bit at the terminator. Since the clothes are dark and the skin is pale that should separate them nicely while still making them look like they're lit universally.

New thread

I charge £25 :)

feedback appreciated

>>4583760
that wasnt even criticizing just being a retard like u lmao can you even read.

>>4580113
it's a great silhouette,and I can see that you're stronger than me at drawing younger females, but if the biceps are outwards to the viewer, then why are the hands in a knuckle position when they should be palm outward position?
