okay

>>4798839
hot
a cute face is 90% of a good illustration, or 100%, if you're ilya kuvshinov

>>4798839
i'm torn, because it looks pretty and cute but the face rendering is just totally flat with exception to the smaller features while everything else is painted with volume

also, doesn't this guy just paint girls all front-facing? i dunno if he did any other angles, can't remember kek cause this style is a little generic

>>4798839
immemorable

>>4798944
putting too much rendering on the face would ruin it, keeping the face clear keeps the cuteness

>>4798956
that's not true, he could've added depth to the facial planes, that's what i'm trying to get at

because my mind is reading this as 2d but also 3d at the same time due to the lack of volume on the head/face. it's slightly jarring.

>>4798945
it would be, if you were a straight male
can't criticize something just for being aimed at certain audience

>>4798960
clearly an stylistic choice. no need to get tangled by "realism" when you wanna deliver your personal vision

>>4798839
really liked this one

>>4798963
I mean, OP asked for my thoughts

>>4798985
fair enough, i guess

>>4798966
is it stylistic or is it because this guy doesn't know how to construct a face in a 3D plane unless he's using a reference?

this guy only knows how to draw a front-facing face, anything that's off from the front or a slight 3/4 face is an abomination

see here: https://twitter.com/yueko__/status/1258901564443353089/photo/2

notice how dmitri's face looks totally different from the other two? who happen to both be front-facing while his face is a true 3/4 face angle? LMAO

>>4798839
It's a nice style, but I honestly won't remember it when this thread dies because the subject matter doesn't feel inspiring to me

>>4798960
show us what he should have done, draw it or show something similar to your vision
I bet it would ruin it with some trannyface like incase

>>4798998
did you come in here to shill for (You) or simp for another artist?

i just posted my opinion because you asked retard i don't need to do shit.

>>4798989
maybe he just don't care for painting males? i don't
anyway, you should judge a piece on its own merits, independently of the rest of the author ouvre, his ideologies, or his persona

>>4798839
stylized anime costume with realistic face looks weird

It would blend in very well on Artstation, no one would suspect anything!

Literally my first post in the thread retard,
And your opinion is garbage, you don't want to defend it with arguments? my win I guess , ez clap.

boring

>>4798839
lotsa grey chroma

>>4799003
>maybe he just don't care for painting males? i don't
See pic below, it's same artist but at a different angle other than front-facing, he clearly only draws in 1 angle because he can't into the rest of the other face angles.

>anyway, you should judge a piece on its own merits, independently of the rest of the author ouvre, his ideologies, or his persona

nigger no one said anything about his ideologies or persona, just saying he can't draw other face angles which is probably why his faces look flat as fuck

>>4798989
her side faces look fine

>>4799007
whatever helps you dilate at night nigger, my opinion appears to be the shared majority itt.

>>4799019
>posting her 2d style that's not even done well
>also that broken knee wtf

notice how she never renders them like the OP when it's at a different angle

>>4799013
precisely: you can criticize those other illustrations if you don't like them -i personally do-, but you can't criticize OP just because those other illustrations exist. it makes no fucking sense

>>4799021
>run away from the argument
As expected from this weakling, I cachinnate.
>my opinion appears to be the shared majority itt
I don't see it, it's mine who's in majority. And if you want to play a popularity game you'll lose anyway, that's how bad your argument is
Now kneel, tranny.

>>4799026
>nooo you need to draw in only one way
wtf

>>4799032
>draw 1 ok illustration
>now immune to criticism
lol

if we're talking about art styles it's a valid critique that it looks flat as fuck in the face, and my guess was that it was because he couldn't draw other face angles in a constructive 3d way, which i was right about.

>>4799042
go to sleep anon, you're talking nonsense. not gonna waste more time on (You)

>>4799047
ok yueko learn to loomis and then we'll talk

>>4799026
ok she got lazy with the knee, so what, whats the problem, its still a nice picture and got a lot of likes

>>4799167
how the fuck do you dismiss her anatomy when this board regularly tears apart sakimichan who is arguably a better artist?

Excel lent

>>4799042
>that it looks flat as fuck in the face
It doesn't you retard, keep to your 3dpd try hard rendering.

>>4798839
generic chink art

>>4798839
Sterile and trendy anime-inspired style. Don't necessarily hate it, but it's so wide spread that it's become generic and a bit status quo for "used to draw anime style but now I've leveled up" kind of artist.

>>4798839
fucking gorgeous

I hate this type of art.

It’s like someone shopped a random face on to the body. Borderline photo bashing.

Byleth would not be making this dumb expression while holding a sword lol.

This a clear case of polishing turd and lack actual fundies namely gesture.

>>4798839
"better than 99.999999% /ic/"
the proof is in the ammount of crabs attracted to this thread

>>4798839
Skills are good, but the actual illustrations are boring.

Really nice, followed

>>4798839
I'd like to learn the painting style, does it have a name? Is watercolor?

>>4799687
Digital, pleb.

>>4799687
>>4799710
digital has such a wide variety of styles, that conflating everything under the same umbrella term is almost cheating. people should come up with particular names for the different digital techniques

>>4799630
that's a pretty natural stage to go through honestly. focusing on rendering+style tends to make you go through a really stiff phase where every painting is basically person in front of background.

>>4799687
>>4799791

>>4799961
what a nice youg man, i wonder what he's reading.

>>4798942
Based and truthpilled

>>4799687
Hard round brush semirealistic anime rendering I guess

>>4798989
NGMI

>>4799791
>digital has such a wide variety of styles
Mate...

>>4798839
female artist i think...this kind of style is really...really generic in the korean mmo market. Even byleth in the illustration looks like korean

>>4801559
*byleth kinda looks like korean kpopstar

>>4799791
Doesn't change the fact that it's more digital than Watercolor.

>>4798839
It's typical korean corporate/mmo style. You see it a lot for mmo promo art or promotional covers for their webnovels. It looks good but it's not unique

>>4798839
Out of perspective. her hands are out of proportion. the swords tilt would be much lower, closer to her pelvis. So shes basically a frog in this picture. It sucks cause it's rendered well but the proportion is fucked.

>>4798942
