How comes everytime I see a Japanese artist using construction they never use any taught by western authors? Who teaches this?

>>4823588
did anime hair study. how i do

>>4824292
ah yes the secrets books and teachers only nips have!lol

>>4824293
ngmi

>>4824292
Those are literally just cross contours. If you'd just have even glanced at Hampton or Vilppu you'd know how to do that.

>>4824293
You did fine. Do it 1000 more times and you'll be a little better. There's no critique that will help you atm

>>4824308
Yes there is, he's just drawing the outline of the hair and not even drawing the 3d form. It's a waste of time to draw another 1000 outlines.

>>4824292
It's not hard to come up with that kind of stuff by yourself. He may have seen another artist doing something similar. Not everything has to be taught.

>>4824292
Who's the artist? What's their twitter handle?

>>4824323
anon its right there in the top right corner くるぬこね

>>4824306
>It uses cross contours!!
I was talking about the construction not the way volume is shown
>>4824297
Its ok if you don't know either

>Its ok if you don't know either
you are so beg you cant even tell this is a standard way to construct the body using shapes and volumes.hampton,loomis,vilppu etc teach this.before you say something stupid like "but nips dont have those" check amazon.co.jp

>>4824376
you fucked up the ru and ro

Might as well stop replying at all if you are more focused on perpetuating stupid board culture memes instead of a half decent answer.
>BUT MUH HARD ROUND LOOMIS

How i did goys?

I want to start working on my backgrounds. How do the japanese do it actually? Most of the backgrounds in anime are so nicely done, seems like so much effort.

>>4824474
I like the folds

>>4824474
Need more loomis

>>4824292
Literally a slightly modified Loomis, look at how the ribcage and hips from the second girl from the left are done
There's no secret here anon, study that shit and adapt it to your own needs

>>4824347
if you take away the cross contours it’s just a drawing of a figure from someone who understands anatomy and form, you’re fucking retarded

>>4824292
so this is the power of /asg/

>>4824474
Hands too smol

@4824469

The answer to your question. Japs are not known for half-assing things or laziness.

>>4824544
Well yeah but how/where could I start learning "background art"?
All I've ever done are character drawings.

>>4824377
I will have to keep tackling these loomis methods

>>4824556

Thanks a lot guys really appreciate it.
And will do, about when will it be on sale next time? December?

>>4824981
Waiting for sales too
I wonder if the 3 months trial will be enough until next sales.
Which is most likely during black friday?

>>4824981
The sales normally come along near the end of financial quarters. September is the end of the current quarter, so check for sales then. The next end of quarter would be December. If they don't do it in September for some reason, you can check in around Black Friday and around other holidays as well.

>>4825014
Yes its most likely going to end up in September some time or Black Friday/Cyber Monday.

what's wrong with that?

Do jap artists use translated Loomis?

>>4826181
Yes

>>4826181
Yes, the pros unironically recommend Western figure books like Loomis, Jack Hamm, Vilppu, and Hampton. You can't do better than the Western books when it comes figure and anatomy.

>>4826181
Some do. I don't think most do, same with western artists.

>>4826181
Pros don't even study realistic figure drawings before going straight into drawing manga style.
Only then they start studying realistic figures to enhance their manga style drawing.

some kanamoris

>>4826228
source? Genuinely curious

>>4826412
Really it boils down to that you need to know (adequately) well how to copy reality, before you can distort it.

>>4826524
ah, I just wanted to save some articles for future reference.

I should have studied loomis or construction in general

>>4826671
there are at least 4 traps that you will lall into as self-taught that will make you waste months/years before discovery the right way to learn and draw.

>>4826681
Would be great if you would tell us the traps and save us some time

>>4825194
use construction and draw from different angles. stop drawing floating anime heads. LOOMIS

>>4826728
not that guy, but I always start with drawing floating anime girls

>>4826718
why would i?you won't follow any advice anyway and/or find any excuse to not to.you have been told so many times to follow the sticky but you didn't listen until you realized it was the right thing to do by yourself .in the end only a teacher with top tier art that has authority will change your mind,i am not that teacher and i am not being paid to save you years of your life anyway.

this conclusion was made after a little experiment of mine.i added a bunch of /beg/s to skype/discord/email/old friends and gave them tips on how to improve quickly.not a single one followed my advice they kept doing their own things.

>>4826977
cus i haven't started properly practicing yet, kind of just fucking around for a bit now until i manage to get myself one of those cheaper no-display drawing tablets

>>4827031
The cheap can go as low as $50, no?

>>4827031
If you can't draw on paper, you can't draw even with the display tablet

>>4827044
Wrong. Go ask anyone who converted from paper to digital and they'll all tell you their work degraded over the fact they had to re-adjust and re-learn how to properly draw in that medium instead, especially if they're using a drawing tablet with no display. It's gonna be fucking awkward having to get used to drawing while looking at the monitor instead of your hands, so you might as well just skip having to waste your time re-adjusting to that shit.

>>4827056
yeah you need to learn how to draw on tablet if you've never done it. but what about fundamental and other skill you can reuse for digital art?

>>4827063
>but what about fundamental and other skill you can reuse for digital art?
You can.. learn them on tablet aswell you know.

>>4827063
You can just learn them right there and then directly in digital is what I'm saying, skip the paper, if that anon wants to do it that way, he can.

Only problem I'm seeing is that he'd have to save his practice drawings, fundamentals grinding and all that in a separate folder, clogging up disk space for no reason. When he could just do those on paper, in a notebook somewhere, then refer to those later.

>>4826927
Don't give up

>>4826160
if you don't have the time or effort to even get cheap copy paper to practice on please don't post here

>>4826728
>don't draw floating heads
i love this meme. that's how fucking fun with a pencil starts but you're telling people otherwise. these threads i tell you. /asg/ needs to pull itself up by its bootstraps before i ban it from existence

>>4826756
if people here actually wanted to improve they would never post their work because they would be too busy doing more copies. it's a catch-22

Vigne's eyes are too close to each other, trapezius/shoulder should be more slender, arms are a little fat, neck's width should be thinner.
Some of the drawings are slanted.
>>4824293
Hair looks flat, try Pin2d's method of dividing the hair.
Take note of the alignment of facial features. Example, (assuming this is supposed to be in front view) the topmost right drawing's eyebrows are not properly align with the eyes, also the neck is not centered properly.
>>4824474
Hands are too small. Eyes have wrong sizes, look at anime pictures with the same angle as yours and see which one should be larger.
>>4824559
Flat hair, there should be overlapping lines with varying thickness too make it look 3d. Try pin2d's hair breakdown.

what the fuck?

>>4830793
S o u l

>>4830804
Here's the secret anon. Drawing from imagination just means thinking about a pose you already drew from reference and remembering how it looked.

Tried to draw the same face in different angles, do you feel if there is similarity?

any thoughts?

>>4832481
"Bottom-up angle" (I don't know the proper term) looks a little weird, but that angle is a nightmare to draw most of the time. Like her chin looks like it's drooping to the right
Is that supposed to be her nose or her mouth in the top-down angle?
I don't have an opinion on the 3/4 angle.

Other than that, you have a cute style.

>>4832063
mmmmmmmmmmm

ez study

>>4832543
>Like her chin looks like it's drooping to the right
Now that you mention it I kind of see it, i think i tried to to do that to no make the jaw just a straight line to the ear

>Is that supposed to be her nose or her mouth in the top-down angle?
mouth, i dont exactly know how to make the nose in that angle without make it look western o tumblrish so i simply dont draw it.

>you have a cute style.
thanks

>>4832580
nta but that's true

Having shaky hands is suffering

>>4832623
not necessarily, how can architects draw buildings they've never seen before? Or how can people start inventing cartoons and things that don't exist in the real world?

Imaginative drawing isn't about regurgitating your memory, per se. Sometimes it is. But really its more akin to playing with legos, arranging simple forms to make something new. You can draw wild poses you've never seen before.

I don't think I get perspective.

>>4832481
These eyes are too far apart.

>>4833142

>>4832833

>>4832063
>>4832638
Does that mean I could just pose a 3D model instead and reference it for my drawing? Definitely sounds like that'd be easier.

>>4832644
if loomis was alive today he would be copying anime

u just have to find parallel lines and in this case kinda eyeball it. just make sure parallel things converge and you're good.

Started drawing after a 2 month lapse in my studies. Been going through Hampton but started with Fun With A Pencil and practicing line art with the early Drawabox stuff. Goal for now has been focusing hard on what makes good lineart, and I think I'm starting to get it. Started all of this stuff in the beginning of COVID quarantines as a goal of something I want to come out of this year having gotten better at something.

Anyway I definitely know there's a bunch of flaws in these next three pictures, but compared to where I was a few months ago, struggling to even make a fucking appealing face and doing Loomis heads, I'm feeling kind of stoked that I'm making stuff now that I actually like to look at after I'm done.

1.) Beatrice sketch from Umineko.

>>4834643
2.) That annoying girl everyone hates this season.

>>4834645
3.) Cooming.

I fucking love this dudes work does he have a blog or something

wasn’t sure where to post this, but it fits here well enough. where do you start with constructing a fantasy setting in terms of both reference and developing the technical skill? i ask because i suffer from severe art block, so i want to try flexing my creativity with what i want to actually draw for once. for specifics, i’ve always had the idea of a comic series influenced by princess mononoke aesthetics, such as the time period. how would i learn to draw the type of clothes the characters wear, for example?

I suck at this shit and loomis. Also anyone know a good place for gesture drawing for basic poses. Trying to get my anatomy down.

>>4834722
Focus on thinner, cleaner lines. Instill the habit of being light until you make your decision lines, and make those lines THIN if you're trying to draw anime well.

>>4834647
I am this anon. You can do it. I was struggling for months to figure out why my anime shit looked bad compared to other people's basic faces, and learned it was mostly all line art. It's subtle as fuck. Still working on it but I'm finally starting to enjoy looking at my stuff.

>>4834373
3d model posing should be done alongside other references if used at all, because the anatomy for 3d models isn't that great. They can just help you to see things in perspective for a pose and figure that you already know.

>>4834681
watch FZD videos and look for the topic you need.
Or look at CGMA design classes and see how they do it.

Something looks really off with the arms/hands and abdomen/pelvic area. I'm also not confident about the colors for the pants. please help /ic/. any concrit would be very appreciated

>>4834914
All I can say is the arms look a little short.
And unless this character is supposed to be a man, the hips are a bit narrow and the hands are too big.

>>4834919
She's supposed to be laying down and leaning up on her arms. Does it not come across that way? Thank you.

>>4834925
No prob, anon. Always happy to help.
I thought she was leaning against a wall. Even so, the arms could be just a liiiitle bit longer.

>>4834914
do you only draw men? it looks like a dude through and through minus teh head. arms and hands should be way skinnier. the frame looks like a dude in general, pelvis is very skinny

her pelvis is really fucked looking along with the belly button placement. quick liquify

I saved this image from twitter but didn't pay attention to who the artist was, anyone here recognizes his work?

>>4835857
Probably anatomy practice, have you tried working with prokos anatomy playlist for example? It's pretty good.

>>4835997
this crushes my soul....

I don't think I'm good enough to go down this path.
No point in going back either now.

This definitely took longer than planned, I should be studying arms and hands by now but at least I'm keeping on going despite my drive being low, I'm looking forward to studying faces and expressions a bit more, thankfully I don't have that much trouble with hands to begin with so I don't think It'll take as long as I took with these.

>>4836895
These are my own, I definitely need to study how to shade softer shapes as I didn't have half as much as trouble in the toned bodies, although Doppel doesn't do muscle a lot I'd still like to do them from time to time.

>>4838343
Depends on the style. Also, there's no such thing as a "anime" head.

>>4838357
why not

>>4838364
Heads can be very different depending on style. Not all would fit the same body.

damn it I can't read the pdf at all, I can only read hiragana, katakana and like 10 kanjis.

>>4838441
just copy the drawings

>>4838447
What is wrong and what is right

>>4838534
It's funny, because doesn't explicitly say why left bad. It basically says to incorporate the gijinka motif into the clothes instead of just stamping a strawberry on them. You would be able to to tell this just from the drawing if you had some context of what's trying to show.

Thanks.
I got CSP PRO on sale, didn't want to commit to EX yet.

From what I read, the only features EX has over PRO is animation and having multiple pages in a document.
Also something about making lines 3D?

Is that really worth 75 bucks on sale? If I don't want to do animation then I can just save separate pages if I ever want to do a manga, right?

>>4838605
To be honest I got EX mixed up with pro, meant to recommend pro. But yeah it's only really useful if you want to dive into animating.

>>4838605
Ex has a neat feature which allows you to see your manga/comic pages in 3D view and flip through them. It’s really nice when you have to check the pacing, or see how your composition would look on printed pages.

As a complete beginner, do I just trace images or redraw them by eye?

>>4838800
Both preferably. Start tracing, pay attention to proportions. Draw by eye to see how you do. Looks like shit? Reevaluate what went wrong, try again.

>>4838800
never trace

>>4838800
tracing is fine if you feel that it helps you understand how the artist made the drawing
just don't post it online

How do I use Loomis to construct this?

>>4839700
Read fun with a pencil. It goes over potato heads. If you're serious this is a gag and you wouldn't draw a character looking up like this.

First digital drawing

Few questions:

Is this circle technique a decent way to draw characters or is it a trap?

Should I start trying my hand at shading this or learn proportions/basics first?
My intuition tells me that just going at it is usually a good idea, but maybe that's a trap and you have to learn everything separately?

Also, if I don't really care about being able to draw on paper, should I still do Drawabox on paper or is it better to do that digitally then?

>>4839822
There's no should or have to. Do whatever you feel is more important for you. DAB is a meme though.

>Is this circle technique a decent way to draw characters or is it a trap?
If it does help you then go for it, but I don't understand how it's helping there. Every artist does things differently. It doesn't matter.

>>4839835
>Do whatever you feel is more important for you.
Guess I'll try it and see how it goes.

>I don't understand how it's helping there
In the end I ended up pretty far from the circles but the idea is first just drawing some circles and then doing the sketch and roughly conforming to the shapes.

I just googled "how to draw a loli" and this is the only thing that wasn't the owl drawing meme.

>>4839847
Born to die isn't bad but I don't think he was being very serious there. So, the circle things are just to show you the proportions. I'm sure he doesn't bother with that. Did you try sketching the body first or did you jump straight into lineart?

>>4839868
I habe no idea what the difference is. That guide is the entirety of my art education post high school.
I did corrections on a lot of lines and for the long ones I first made them up of multiple ones before replacing or merging them.

>>4839822
If you want to learn how to draw people, then pick up a figure drawing book. Personally I prefer Hampton. Understand that it takes a long time before you can draw good figures.

>>4839884
Seeing you're completely new you can try going to twitch art or pixiv sketch lives to get an idea of how other people indeed draw.

>>4840059
not here too aradia autist

>>4825906
SOVL...

>>4839822
Jfc anon do yourself a favor and actually look up Hampton figure drawing and watch a video about how Bridgman does it as well. You are wasting time trying to figure out methods on your own as a beginner. There is no need to re-invent the wheel, there are multiple tried and true methods to construction. Only after you understand and master one of these that works for you, should you feel like adjusting it to suit your style.

>>4839822
The absolute state of asg. Kys pedo freak no one wants your shitty drawings.

/beg/ as fuck here drawing my waifu. I need to draw for fun more often. Not the best I know but she’s still cute

lol

>>4835351
still boring

>>4835351
He's lying, I like the pose so it can't be boring.
Only needs a bit more momentum.

>>4840059
forms slightly improved

When working through textbooks (in this case Hampton), do I copy what's in the book or how do I internalize this stiff?
I feel like if I did another sketch now I'd be thinking about the spine more but I probably forgot 80% of what was written in the first chapter.

>>4841082
Yeah, just copy. Nobody remembers what's written in the book.

:)

>>4841082
i just take pics of the important info with my phone to reference when i’m about of ideas

Do you think we're too dumb to reverse image search?

Did this from what I felt looked right.

Is there an actual technique you can use aside from just airbrushing and hoping it looks good?

What's a good book on shading that's useful for anime?

Also, is there no way to save colors in CSP?

>>4839700
Is this a genuin question?

Just a circle with a spike for a nose added to it and the mouth 1/3 down.
You can almost just symbol this, hence why I used circle instead of sphere/ball.

>>4841267
>Is there an actual technique you can use aside from just airbrushing and hoping it looks good?
Look at what other artists do. Some even have VODs.

>What's a good book on shading that's useful for anime?
Look for jap tutorials on e-hentai.

>>4841267
The shading/coloring is the least of your issues. Even if you have amazing rendering technique it will look like shit if the thing your coloring looks bad to begin with. Your lines aren't conveying any sense of form at all.

>>4841501
wrong, render-monkeys can make any shit look good

>>4841520
It'll look good only if you're a dumb monkey yourself.

>>4841501
>Your lines aren't conveying any sense of form at all.
I noticed, but I'm still kinda surprised it's recognizable as a humanoid. Since it's my second figure drawing and my first on digital I just wanted to do the whole process from drawing the lineart to coloring/shading once to see what I'm getting into. It's honestly much more fun than I expected.

On the topic of form, will I learn anything by trying to draw interesting poses and perspectives or should I stick to boring poses at first to learn the basic body proportions and shapes?

>>4841557
Boring poses won't help you do interesting poses that much. Go for it.

>>4841284
>Look at what other artists do. Some even have VODs.
Any artists that do cute and funny art who also stream?
>Look for jap tutorials on e-hentai.
Thanks.

>>4841526
wrong.
this proves how retarded and dumb monkey you are.

>>4841526
of course, but being a render-monkey is ok if you don't want to take drawing too seriously, and normalfags tend to like those type of work, you'll be a joke in the eyes of any good artist tho

Porn artists don't usually save videos, so you'll have to record them yourself.

>>4841588
I can see that the perspective is off but what does that have to do with rendering? For that matter, what does rendering mean in this context? I only know it from 3D.
Are you saying he doesn't bother learning the correct perspective drawing because he can "cover it up" with an excess of shading detail?
>>4841598
I don't see what is wrong with that artist at all.

>>4841604
>el no sabe

>>4841604
A rendermonkey is someone relies exclusively on rendering for appeal, halfassing all other aspects.

>>4841578
Thanks a lot.

kek it's lliterally just streamlined bridgeman with wireframe on it for educational purposes. /beg/ is so ridiculous

>>4830762
not sure if this will be helpful, but I would also like to see how you construct your sketches.

>>4843549

>>4832515
torso seems to a have decent flow, but the rest of the body looks a bit stiff.

I know hands can be very tricky to draw, specially in that position, but you should work on them more. Also look for the region where the shoulder connects with the breasts.

careful with overdoing shading, sometimes it's better to simplify shadows in order to look more appealing.
