>>4891864
Am I just seeing things or

>>4891865
OH NO NO NO NONO NOT AGAIN

>>4891865
Delusional idiot

>>4891883
Same to you copyfag, no wonder you can't draw heads.

>>4891865
So cute and lots of soul.

>>4891864
Is it just me or is something weird with his colors? I can't put my finger on it.

>>4891902
I can draw heads better than you could ever hope to. :)

>>4891906
He's not changing the hue very much, so it looks unnatural.

>>4891902
is it really you gray-sketch tranny?

>>4891860
>>4891864
when is this coming out

Can I get some advice into how to draw hair like this? I'm having a hard time with it

>>4891966
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLd9YlgrhwWqDg-O1kdp84Py30Tev8W4Ch

>>4891967
Nice, thanks, also here's an example of what im doing now

>>4891884
Doesn't get any less ugly no matter how many times you post it.

>>4892031
Even the reference itself??

Newfag. Decided to pick up my pen again and get good. I’ve only had one drawing class in my life. I did this quickly the other day on the back of a quiz. What does /ic/ think of my crosshatching, values, and lines?

>>4892163
I’m soww foh being a phonefag

>>4892163
I like it. Need a bit more work on the crosshatching but i like it. Sorry i wasn't able to critique it more but i had an good day today so i want to spread more positive vibes.

>>4892169
It’s alright. Thanks anon. That drawing is small anyway and its my first drawing in Months even though its but a copy. I just wanted some encouragement

>>4891902
>>4891865
heads are easier than everything else, but it's not because they're actually easy. it's just that people are most motivated to draw heads so they eventually get good at doing it. everything else does take more effort imo. or at least it feels like it.
also how difficult it is depends heavily on your style. some are a lot simpler than others.

>>4891881
since i'm focusing on inking too atm i'll add my 2 cents here.
i think a good inking should try to create the illusion of light. this means i wouldn't do these open gaps everywhere, but only in specific places where the light is shining from.

also i think it's better if you can't recognize lines as "strokes" everywhere. and in your image you can see way too many of them because they don't touch to each other .
in general i think it's better to keep lines uniformly thin, as opposed to what you did, where the lines keep switching between super thin (to the point of dissapearing) and thick in every feature.
then add even thinner lines for the details while slightly thickening some lines that need emphasis.

also i think building lines with many tiny strokes is fine imo. at least i think so after watching the tsugumomo author stream more.

is this a copy as well? i'm curious as to how the original did it.

How do you guys get used to drawing in a tablet? Are there like practice things that I can do? it's just too slippery and the movement versus the screen is making things difficult.

>>4892257
Draw a lot. Try drawing things you can instead of something new.

>>4892257
you just get used to it?
make sure the aspect ratio for the screen and tablet are the same. try to trace a perfect circle on the tablet and see if it'S the same on screen.

>>4892257
I bought my first tablet 2 months ago, is a small one and I was full trad before so it's more difficult to get used to it, the first week I spent drawing was circles, lines, and gesture, basically re-learn how to draw and develop eye to hand coordination, I also suggest to paint with a soft brush things like landscapes or still life's because they are more relaxing and you get used to the pen pressure and the flow

>>4892306
Well I tried to do that and I only got this. Doesn't seem like a perfect circle to me. Anyone know how to calibrate a XP-Pen tablet.

>>4892327
dunno, seems about right to me. there can be some offset if you didn't hold your pen perfectly straight.
also you should do a way bigger circle to test this lol.

>>4892331
Nah I found the settings It was originally W:1000 H:600. Changed the setting to us display ration and now it's W:1000 H:562. And Yeah used a glass this time. Looks good to me now thanks.

>>4892333

I did try to copy some drawing earlier witht he wrong proportions and it doesn't look so bad.

>>4892333
>>4892335
nice

Imagine how much better you'd be had you bought the Apple iPad Pro 12.9 instead.

How to make this more appealing?

>>4891860
HOLLY MOLLY! Is this Asanagi? Oh my God. I dont know what it is, but I want to read it!

>>4892489
Her eyes are not looking in the same direction.
Flip your canvas.

>>4892214
It's a copy. The original looks almost the same.

>>4892571
can you post?

How long does it take to "make it", how good should I be after 2 weeks of drawing??

How many eye reps do I have to do to finally be able to do them?

Magical Canan settei study.

>>4892684
It takes years. Expect to see no improvement after two weeks.

>>4892684
in 2 weeks you should have some knowledge but lack the skill to apply it

>>4892695
>>4892696
That's reassuring.
This is last thing i draw based on this:
https://setteidreams.net/settei/overlord/index.php?pic=086.jpg..

>>4892716
Focus on accuracy and try to be less wasteful with your lines. This is actual chicken scratch.

>>4892719
Okay, will do

>>4892716
I would suggest drawing in steps and thinking with 3D forms.

>>4892804
I can see the step part, but not the 3d form one.

>>4892809
Sorry. Think of it like a mesh made up of 3D objects. Cubes, spheres, cones, cylinders.

I’ve been redpilled bros. All you need for anime is vilppu and stylization studies.
Drop loomis right now.

>>4891865
Ayy haven't seen you around
Still having Tribble with the legs?

>>4892851
Actually show me this redpill aka post work, thank you.

Its a rather simple pose but i just felt like there's definitely things that can be improved upon. Can anyone have a look? Thank you so much!!

>>4892804
That's nice, I try to follow Pin2D constructions on YouTube, are they bad?

Is their any use in printing out some of my favorite artists shit and redlining and dissecting it to get a feel for their construction and forms used?

>>4892860
The pose is very flat and stiff, I don't have time to do a redline right now, but I might be around later tonight. This image describes what I find missing from the drawing pretty well, though it's a bit exaggerated. Doing some loose gesture drawings could help when coming up with lively poses.

>>4892489
Try not using auto-coloring

>>4892856
Haven't drawn since the last time you've seen me, probably have difficulties with everything right now.

>>4892860
Looks like you're avoiding foreshortening, while trying to draw a foreshortened pose.

god if I had a dollar for every disposable fate grand order comic artist

>>4892942
Based Disney were the kings of anime.

>>4892692
Nice.
Make her do a spread eagle pose.

>>4893023

>>4893161
LOL
I wish I were as good as you.

>>4893161
the head is too big and the knees need more work

>>4893161
The lower legs feel disconnected to the hips, and one leg is thicker than the other

>>4893200
>>4893370
I dunno bros, I think we can all see the problems in the picture, but how about we give some useful advice?

>>4893419
lear,nb proportions and construction

>>4893419
the advice is use construction and measure your proportions better
also don't bother i was just shitposting

>>4893419
>advice
draw more

>>4893023

>>4892945
But it is fun to look at.

>>4893543
This style looks really familiar.

This is what I can do from imagination after 2 years and a half of grind (almost 3), am I going to make it anons?

>>4893750
Probably. Try a bunch of different angles in extreme perspective and report back. Also try different body types and facial maps

>>4893753
Same anon again, extreme perspective still quite difficult for me, though, I try to draw in every possible angles I can. This is another sketch I made from imagination.
Sperg here so I dont know what to look for so please spoonfeed me something in an extreme perspective and I'll report back as soon as I can anon.

m so lazy

>>4892945
What's this

>>4893419
The right leg should be a little more behind

>>4893750
>>4893764
How do I draw more clean lines?

>>4892860
the pose doesn't make any sense

>>4894015
momo chan <3 nice drawing

>>4894015
November 13th can't come soon enough.
Who's re-watching the series in anticipation for the movie as well?

>>4892942
moar disney tuts pls

>>4894119
read preston blair's animation book from the animation thread

I just want to make cute happy anime drawings but apparently the cute genetics skipped me. Are there any tutorials or things to study that will specifically help me draw things cute and pretty and sparkly?

>>4894131
I don't think there's a concrete guide on how2cute out there. You need to consume cute to become a cute poster

>>4894119
i think that's from drawn to life, either way that book is just cover to cover disney tutorials

>>4894131
do you have 10+ years visual library of japanese art?if not start now and you will be good by then

>>4894136
This guy gets it.

>newfriends actually replying to greysketchtranny

>>4894458
>woah look bros I've been here longer than a day

I don't understand how chins work

>>4892546
How about now? How to make it more appealing?

>>4894561
The colors are just not my thing at all. It's uncomfortable to look at, it's too unsteady, there's nothing to grasp on, there's no zone where the eyes can rest or focus on.
There might be a market for this kind of art, but I can assure you most people would react like I do right now.

>>4894569
So mininalize the colors?

>>4894561
color it manually, think but I think the snow one looked kinda appealing. Certainly good enough. This one is also good enough I guess.

>>4894561
If you are fine with the rendering then move on. I like it enough.

>>4893982
Very nice anon
But of a stiff pose

>>4893764
>Sperg here so I dont know what to look for
That's the opposite of a sperg

>>4893976
unironically drawabox lesson 1
just drill it for like 5 minutes everytime before you draw no reason to grind it and in like a month your line quality will improve drastically

>>4894561
How did you get that pattern on the cloth?

/beg/

i kinda give up drawing perfect circle. I love you elipse tool. am i even doing this right

>>4895246
Yeah some of them are decent. Remember the point of loomis is to understand the basic fundamentals that make it work then adapt it to your own needs.
Some of your heads are decent but others are terrible. Look at what you did wrong with them and redraw them 5 times each fixing your mistakes each time. I guarantee it will make you better.

Why do I lose the soul when inking drawings?
Is it the line weight?
Also I'd appreciate some inking sai brushes if you guys have any.

Are there any anime artists out there with a coloring style that resembles romantic oil painting?

>>4895302
what soul?

>>4895333
you know what i mean, the lineart looks worse than the sketch

something i drew to learn character design/proportions/hair,tips and crits are welcome

>>4895302
It's because you're not comfortable with inking, so you lose focus of what you're drawing. I recommend making the sketch barely visible when doing lineart. You don't want to just trace the sketch. I'm not very good myself but here's my attempt.

>>4895386
Left: Soul
Right: Soulless

>>4895402
define soul

>>4895386
Thanks anon, i'll give it a try

>>4895409
Soul = incorrect. If it's wrong, it has soul. Apparently.

>>4895418
Why would anyone want to have soul then? wtf

>>4894758
In google lmao

>>4894473
study the skull

Praise the greysketchad

>>4895487
shut up cylinderfag
use boxes like everybody elese

>>4894561
I think it looks appealing already, the more blurrier you make it, the better it gets.

>>4895381
Navel too low, hands are terrible, looks fine.

>>4893982
>>4895487
Too good for /asg/

>>4896175
Some people like clear bold lines some like blur. Thanks for the feedback

how do u guys think of cool poses? it takes me a long time and slows my Art Output : ' (

jc this thread is a shitshow of /beg/

>>4895409
The right loses both fluidity in the lines and subtle detailing, the facial expression has become rigid and less evocative. The right honestly looks like stencil art based on the left.

>>4894561
the colors are too saturated fampai
that and stop pillow shading
also move on with this and work on a new one

>>4895386
whoa cute

>>4895381
cartoony hands, the rest is really cute

>>4896250
pyw

>>4896175
>>4896259

>>4896263
and you think this gives you the right to act mighty?

>>4896264
Yes. Now post your work.

>>4896257
i fucking love over saturated shit. I know it is weird as fuck lmao i have a video coming up for this particular piece. Will share soon.

>>4896250
i admit i am /beg/, especially when it comes to anime.
>>4894561
I cant seem to make this appealing.

>>4896270
>>4884455

Another study.

>>4896578
nice and clean

>>4896578
The legs should go inwards a bit at the ankle where the shoe begin and you bent her arm too much on the full body. Also the top left bust has the neck too wide and the perspective is a bit wrong on the clothes.
The others are nice.

>>4896640
Thank you kind anon.
>>4896718
I knew there was something wrong with the legs. Thank you so much for the advices I will try to correct it.

>>4891864
That is literally just Guts as an orc.

>>4896954
That's the point...its a parody...

>>4896954
At least orc Guts fucks

total begginer here. if i'm want to draw anime should I learn loomis?

>>4897003
You sound stupid enough to need loomis, so yes.

>>4897003

>>4897005
rude

>>4897003
Up to yourself. Personally I think no you don't.

>>4897020
Your loli design is charming but the dude looks a little bland. Also maybe work on drawing some cleaner lines.

>>4897020
They guy looks like he belongs as a Disney extra in the background.
Probably a cheering village.

>>4893419
I KNEEEEELL SKETCHTRANNYY AAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>4897079

>>4891860
>https://mega.nz/#F!UcNG2AiT!jeyWwP1gtQXXz6R29o5bgw!sddDyarD
Is there a torrent of this?

I literally don't even draw anymore. I just autistically copy a image from the Fate VN until its a complete reproduction and everything is perfect and then throw it away
Its oddly satisfying

>>4891860
Can you provide a magnet link to the Japanese Book Collection? It takes too long to download from Mega

/beg/
how do i learn to draw eyes? do i just grind a shitload of artstyles? this and hair are probably the hardest shit to do in anime

>>4897352
I just use layers to draw the eyes.

>>4897352
whats exactly your problem, are you uber /beg/ or something in particular

>>4897355
isn't that bad in the long run?
>>4897358
>are you uber /beg/
yes. been grinding circles, triangles boxes and upside down stravinskys and learned to do loomis heads

>>4897361
Start drawing for fun instead of grinding stupid shit without knowing why

>>4897365
What a shit advice. grinding is fun for some people you know. Whatever. Back to loomis I go

>>4897369
This is how permabegs that don't know why they aren't getting any better if they're grinding fundies all day are born.

>>4897361
Layers make shit easier. Many pro's spam the shit out of layers till it boggles the mind while others are minimalistic, but both end up with good work. Layers also make adjustment easier So try and decide what works for you. If 1000 layers makes a finished product you like in a time you consider fair, fuck anyone who says you're wrong.

>>4897016
Oh no, what have you become /ic/

>>4897559
>LOOK HOW HARD I CAN PEE

>>4897008
maybe add "use irl reference" to this?
copying loomis figures and 3d shapes will only take you so far
people need to know what things actually look like

>>4897734

>>4897740

I spent this past week and a half studying doppel's faces, while copying his was actually quite easy, I ran into a big wall when making my own, I just couldn't do it in my first day, but I managed to break through and I think I've succeeded in building the foundation where I can improve upon later on.

>>4897835
I still have a lot of trouble with expressions, but I'll keep on practicing and always referencing his when I make mine, nowadays doppel always does his eyes on his style and usually ignores the artstyle of the original character which for some reason I really don't like, I want to preserve the original artstyle somewhat like the style of the eyes but still make the face resemble doppel's, I'll move on to dicks and butts tomorrow which I should have a far easier time, but I'll keep on practicing faces once I'm done.

>>4895302
I tried my best to lineart it.

How do I render like this

>>4897849
Your lineweight is awful and makes no sense whatsoever.

>>4897856
ask >>>/3/

>>4897835
Are you tracing? At least partially. You're too accurate for the most parts.

>>4897867
No what I do to copy his pieces is I first of all separate his heads into shapes I can recognize so I can later do my own without looking directly at his pieces, either way when I start copying I draw on top of these shapes while looking at his, I eventually re-draw them 2-3 times and it's usually accurate as I have the shapes as reference.

>>4897361
It's easier with layers, especially with the shading around the iris.

>>4897008
I've been doing this since I started, so you know it works.

>>4897229
>>4897849
Cool brush.

>>4897934
Why aren't you crabbing? What happened?

>>4897947
I've never been a crab, no ones actually finishing anything, so I can give them advice.

>>4897947
i don't know if intentionally giving bad advice is considerer crabbing, but it's worse than shitting on an artist

>>4898124
>giving bad advice
where?

>>4898139
he used to do that before disappearing

>>4896985
Then why the fuck didn't he make a parody for Griffith and Casca so they can get ORKED

>>4897856
thats a 3d model

>>4898186
copyright, asangi is a professional H-artist

>>4898124
I'm not the general with an OP lying about how to learn how to draw.

>do theoretical physics hw for 48 hours straight
>draw mordred
>looks flat, terrible line control, and fucked the face
AHHHHHHHH

>>4898195
parody works are protected from copyright laws.
Asanagi could have made a "griffith" and "casca" effortlessly and wouldnt have gotten in any trouble.

>>4898109
Are those dead chicks

>>4898124
Was it genuinely bad advice or just 'grind loomis' esque stuff?

>>4898290
His advice is pointlessly draw from imagination until you get good. He thinks he's the second coming of christ and is the only one that knows the true way to learn to draw. He's severely mentally ill, don't reply to him

>>4898291
i think you take anonymous belgian woodcut forum posters too seriously.

>>4898290
loomis is good advice but kind of ambiguous, he would gave malicious advice to mislead begginers. It looks like he stopped doing it, he still is a dunning krugger tho

>>4898304
He's been doing the exact same formless scribbles for more than 2 years already lmao.
Then proceeds to crab on objectively better artists for whatever reason.

>>4898326
Literal mental illness

>>4898291
Does graysketch tranny have any finished drawing at all?

>>4898286
Ears are gross.

>>4898354
Nope. When I'm good.

>>4898421
There is no way of getting good at finished drawings without actually doing finished drawings. All the Japanese pros say this.

>>4897008
it's okay to cry about being such a tryhard anon
if you'd like, you can cry on my tummy~

When do I get to draw anime?

>>4897856
very touching narrative about when the air conditioning breaks in the middle of summer
who is the artist?

>hours of grinding gesture and the human figure
>can create a decent frame and body to work with
>means fuck all if i can't draw an apealling animu face
I'm going to kill myself

>>4898517
what?

Do I have to learn anatomy? Sounds like a meme from reddit.

>>4898582
Yes, learning the forms of the human body when you want to draw the human body is a meme that only ngmi's fall for.

>>4898476
Not that guy, but whenever I work too long on an image I tend to start disliking it kind of taking my will to finish it away.
Anything you can do to prevent that?

>when you draw shitposts rather than studying fundies
the eternal hell

>>4898695
at least for me, I save the unfinished file, so I can finish it later, or at least continue working on it after occupying my mind with something else, if you do it as a hobby why not, better than not getting anywhere

a question, is there a trick to those colored shadow edges in CSP? think I saw a tutorial once, but can't find it anymore
is it just a layer on top of the shadow one with specific settings maybe?

>>4898421
Extremely stiff

>>4898746
I think it's the Add(glow) layer with a soft airbrush

>>4898746
Dodge always has that ugly yellow look

>>4898746
you can always do it manually withing the same layer like all the great artists do, also it should be redder not yellower for the skin in those parts

>>4897856
you learn blender

>>4898747
Extremely cringe poster

>>4898829
You don't like critique? I thought you were better than this. Shame on you.

>>4898832
Hard to tell shitposting from critique.

>>4897861
>>4898190
>>4898823
>autists manage to reproduce photographs with pencils
>3d program rendering somehow viewed as unattainable
pathetic

>>4898835
Cringe

>>4898843
its about making the most out of your time, not worth the time replicating 3d rendering in paintings

>>4891860
>>4891860
Stupid questionm guys. Where can I find a good head and features resource?

>>4898880
I want this as well. I keep getting shit cheeks and jaw line. everytime.

>>4898758
>>4898769
thanks, i got it kind of right, both add glow and glow doge seem to work, blended the shadows like usual, then added a layer on top with either of those properties, using the same color and the airbrush i blended once more.

>>4898798
couldn't get it to red (at least with those layer settings also not manually, because i am no great artist) i should focus on more traditional blending and basics for now anyway

also trying to figure out from that earlier example where to use those shadow-edge colors, looks like where lightest parts clash with the shadows, could someone explain?

What is your style goal?
I want mine to be a exact copy of the 2006 DEEN fate anime

>>4899337
Hard to say. It's not like I want to always draw the same way.

>>4899337
My end goal is to reach this artstyle, Doppel's artstyle nowadays has shifted way off this sadly.

>>4899399
Did you draw that? If so that's really good.

>>4899472
It's henken, future me.

>>4899337
You okay?

>>4899683
Ah sorry you said the fate anime only

>>4899686
Wether it's bad animation or not, posting a screenshot from an animation as proof of bad quality just shows how retarded you are.
It's like judging a meal from what it sounds like.

>>4899697
So you're not okay, got it.

Does anyone know what artists/work to look up so i can study this style? This is exactly what i want my figures to look like but I don't know where to find more work like it. I know murakami has a ton of art but i wanna study how he does figures

>>4899738
looks like billie eilish lol

>>4899744
That's cause it is!

>>4899755
good work then, in response to your question before studying an artist and develop a artstyle you first need to go back to the basics and learn figure drawing, i really liked steve huston course

>>4899738
tits not big enough

>>4899686
Nah i liked the expressive faces
Especially shirou and kotomines
It just took the VN style that I already liked and refined it

Am I drawing the unseen parts of the head in correctly here?

Full image for reference:
https://img2.gelbooru.com/images/00/c5/00c59a517bbfcb7c6248fecd80679b45.jpg

>>4899855
No, you made the head too big. You have to consider the mass of the hair.

>>4899855
Ear also seems too small and too far below where it should be.

>>4899878
>>4899867
Ah right forgot about that. Thanks.

The ear is about that size in the original aswell right?

>>4899886
You picked a very bad fanart. Look at those t rex arms, the disjointed boobs and that stiff pose. Study from good artists, not from some rando.

>>4899890
I usually just go to gelbooru and look for cute pictures. Now that you say it I see the mistakes aswell, but I didn't see it before.
How do you usually go about finding references? I don't have one go to artist I study from but rather take references from all over..

>>4899912
For anime? I pick a drawing of any of my favorite artists. Do you have any artists you like? If you don't you should work on that. Drawing aimlessly is not good.

>>4899912
>How do you usually go about finding references?
search for professionals in the industry like murata, miura, yoshinari, sadamoto, etc.

Well yeah I do, ill be a bit more careful with my image selection from now on I guess. Especially since I don't have the eyes to easily see mistakes yet.
Sticking to professionals sounds like a good idea, thanks.

How do noses like this work? I'm interested in this

>>4899965
they don't, they dont need to breathe

>>4899965
no nose, just a plane of the face

I'm having trouble getting into digital so I'm experimenting with just going over my sketch digitally like so. It looks better than before but I'm getting a sort of western comic book artist feel i don't like

What's the best angle to draw a leglock mating press position that shows the characters expressions?

>>4898517
Yea it's nearly too simple and that makes it difficult

>>4898740
Why is she falling?

>>4900109
Line weight doesn't vary in any way
It looks bland like western cartoons/comics

>>4899337

>>4900421
cute but it's starting to feel efortless

>>4900262
Gravity

>>4900109
its because you're shading with pure black. japanese artists would be using screentones

>>4901040
Right, but also wrong. There's plenty of pure black usage in manga.

>>4901045
not the way he's using it.

>>4901119
Why not? The character's hair is black, so it makes sense for the shadow of it to be even darker.

>>4891860
Working on this so I can later try 3d modeling it.

>>4894561
I adore those colours, It visually pops and gives me jsrf vibes. It's so vibrant and just captures my attention, try that colour style in more action/busy pictures

>I havent drawn in weeks due to school work
>try to draw again
>looks like shit

Pic is my latest drawing

>>4900426
Sorry

>>4902322
yeah it looks like shit

Daily grind. Seeing some improvement...

>>4902322
Ngmi

>>4901467
An update of what I managed to do today

>>4903065
Why do people just say this instead of offering advice or something? The guy is obviously new to drawing and recently took a break so what's the point of NGMI?

>>4903133
Just yesterday read a thread about people coming to ic just to trashtalk other artists to ensure they wont be "competition" whenever

how are you supposed to actually learn anatomy? reading books and watching video courses is so much info to try and retain but they're not really giving assignments or homework. i get the idea of needing a basic idea of how it works biologically before simplifying it but they're not really showing how you can use it practically in an actual drawing

>>4903307
proko

>>4903307
You don't learn anatomy by reading books or watching videos. You learn anatomy by repeatedly practicing and applying it until it's solidified into your memory. Don't waste too much time drawing muscles without skin. That's the same thing as pointlessly grinding loomis heads.

>>4903320
this, also you need to learn the insertions and origins of the muscles, that helps you when drawing from imagination, don't waste time doing 1:1 copies of anatomical plates, learn the shapes, read the hampton book, proko videos are good to studying shapes and he gives assingments, anatomy is pretty hard take it easy

>>4903307
You learn to draw something by actually drawing them. One attempt at simplified anatomy is worth more than 10 hours of watching video courses explaining how anatomy works.

What are screentones

what are those lines toriyama draws under character's eyes ment to be?

>>4903548
It's meant to give a little bit of volume to the cheek area and "push" that portion of the face forward slightly.

>>4903078
Draw a line from head to toe on her side view and check her balance, there's too much weight at the front and she looks like she might throw her back out walking
But other than that good work, post progress on the 3d model. What's it for?

>>4903307
Gesture drawing, practice using whatever construction method you've been learning, and do 30s, 1m, 2m and 5m sessions.

How do I go about drawing more complex hairstyles from imagination?

>>4903423
Literally gray

>>4903631
Cheers mate I will

>>4891860
Wish I could find a way to support you guys, really helped me out with my art.

Humu humu

>>4904130
Asking now what pen was Ina using in clip studio? Also do I need to switch pens when going from scratch to doing line art? I'm new to this digital drawing specially with the tools that are used.

>>4904130
Let's fucking GOOOOOOO

>>4904130
Might as well

warm up for 2day

This thread series has been linked to from Manga Making General >>4904367

If you guys want to share resources, feel free to link /mmg/ in the next /asg/ thread.

>>4903159
Makes sense but that's bullshit. If anything is fucking us over it's shitty social media algorithms and a lack of discovery avenues for new artists. Rarely do people even get to the point where they're "competing" with one another because the platforms they're posting on don't even let them compete or reach an audience in the first place.

>>4904482
Of course it's bullshit but some people just are that retarded.
So yeah you got to be careful who you take advice from here.

>>4903548
study anatomy. it's the plane change of the zygomatic process/zygomatic bones

>>4904130
Please bless me priestess

>>4904146
If you go back to her drawing stream archives, she's updated the description of the videos to list the tools that she uses. Also to the other question: it really doesn't matter. Go with what brush you feel results in the best lines for the look you want to achieve. Some people like using pencil-like brushes to mimic the traditional feel, makes them more comfortable. Doesn't mean that you have to as well.

>>4904130
I've come for answers high priestess.

It was fun following along Go Office’s Basic Drawing - Background. forgive the chicken scratch though it's hard to use a mechanical pencil on the paper on my sketchbook, it's too hard. still need to.lear a few more things like the eyes and stuff but I did my best.

>>4905110
Looks cute, keep it up!

>>4905110
Oh yeah I have a new found respect to the illustrators and animators that uses paper and pencil. I don't know how they keep their paper clean at all. I had to do a lot of erasing and the lead is either too soft or too smooth for drawing.

what does /asg/ think of 3d programs like designdoll and csp's models

>>4905239
cringe
vilppu and huston

>>4905271
currently watching vilppu for anatomy but 3d model programs would be good for free references?

>>4900314
got any more of this style? seems nice

>>4905239
I don't think it's cringe as >>4905271 said at all. Professional artists have used references of dolls and real people since time immemorial.

For imagination-based drawing (this includes things like anime and cartoons), however, there are a few things that you should keep in mind. The first is that since the kinds of drawings we're doing often bend rules of perspective, form, and other things, you can't always be a slave to the reference. The second is that sometimes dolls can't bend well to positions that will look fine when you actually draw them (though this is less of a problem with digital dolls than it is with physical ones, though digital dolls do sometimes have rotational issues with joints and so on when it comes to the exterior geometry).

Personally, I find these are best used not to come up with or reference poses, but to check and make sure that things like foreshortening are properly done within the context of a pose that you've already come up with and drawn. In other words, I think they're most effective when used as a method for checks and comparisons of a pose you're already working on as opposed to something that you pose first and then draw.

This is just my own personal experience though, of course.

>>4904130
bless me please

Studied Persona 5 art today. Top two copied/referenced from the artbook (though I didn't try to copy it exactly to understand how they work)
Bottom left is stylization from random photo, bottom right is drawn from memory after a few hours of study.
