theres a shadow on your paper

>>4896799
everything is just shadows and light isnt that like the first thing u learn>?? pfft tell me something i DON'T know...

I messed up a bit but overall I'm OK with how this one turned out

>>4896814

>>4896814
I've just realized I have the values completely off. I feel bad now

>>4896814
You draw the lines but not the shape/forms, if you want to draw linework, rather draw manga/anime.
And a tip, turn the photo in photoshop or some program in black and white, so you can practice value more effective.

Might be turbo shit but he was right about one thing. Its oddly relaxing.

>>4897029
i almost coomed
thiccc, big tits, pubic hair but that neck/face made me unable to continue

The second gesture on this came out really well and I'm not sure what I did differently

>>4897042
thicker line

>>4897042
Nice

>>4897029
Didn't you say you'd quit /ic/ the other day?

What do i do if i can't draw today?

>>4897177
250 fucking boxes

>>4897184
Those are virgin numbers.
Go to an post office and draw at least 1500 boxes from life.

Started drawing for the first time about a week ago, been watching Proko and doing daily Box exercises.
I don't know if this progress is any good at all, and it sure as hell isn't anything special, but I feel pretty happy with myself.
Thanks for the advice you guys gave me when I came here last week /beg/!

>>4897177
250 floating loomis heads

I know it is bad, but, weirdly, posting here gives me motivation to draw more.

>>4897209
i started last week too and i'm watching proko and reading loomis. doing the same heads too...though my circles and lines are rougher. also made some modifications to the loomis head to make it animay.
We are all gonna make it

>>4897194
good shit anon, keep working on it

>>4897194
legs too short

>>4897249
cute feet but the figure is leaning too much, if one were to replicate this pose they would fall over. straighten up the body and the grounded foot should be closer to the center of the fig

Could someone give me an example of their practice schedule?
I suck with self-discipline and have been pretty inconsistent with keeping up a routine.

>>4897258
My schedule:
- draw whatever i want for a random amount of time
- repeat as much as i want during the course of the day

>>4897256
I didn't notice that, thanks!

I have two questions, sorry if they are extremely /beg/ tier:

If I am copying drawings to practice and I try to construct them with basic shapes, they never look accurate, but I do not want to copy just for the sake of copying, is this normal? I think this is happening because I am unable to understand and measure the basic underlying shape. Should I keep copying drawings this way or should I try to be more accurate copying without construction?

What would you recommend to someone that is struggling drawing the same face twice? I tried to draw faces from different angles and my character never looked the same.

Sorry for my english, drawing is not the only thing I am trying to get better at

Did this for a friend. I know is trash and the whole walls-mirror-floor thing is fucked. Also, keys to drawing is extremelly boring.

>>4897282
Now this is peak /beg/

>>4897253
How're you modifying the heads? I've been practicing them, but am unsure how I'd go about translating them to a more animu/2d form.

>>4897258
45 min timed figure drawing session from the NMA videos
3 animal drawings, 5 min, 10 min, 30 min
3 portrait drawings, 5 min, 10 min, 30 min
3 object drawings, 5 min, 10 min, 30 min
1 finished figure or portrait drawing with no time limit

choose two or three of the above everyday and get them done in the morning. spend the rest of the day drawing whatever you want for however long you want.

>>4897287
just make the jaw rounder and the chin pointer. for the eyes, just draw a circle between the eyebrows and the nose guidelines and take it from there

>>4897254
I'm posting it here to get specific suggestions but otherwise I've taken it pretty much as far as I can go. I didn't want to do full color. I guess I could finish the lines but the focal points are done so I don't really want to put in the time unless you guys have specific crit /ideas.

Any adjustments I can make before I color it?

>>4897019
I hope so

I need a place to get references, faces and poses but it can't be one where you choose, I'm struggling with OCD and the concept of a choice is dangerous, dangerous in that my OCD will get triggered but if it's random I can do it most of the time. Quickposes is good for gesture, designed to but I need something else

>>4897356
yes, go back to loomis to adjust your brain

I haven't been paid for >>4895345 yet and he's not responding to messages. :(

>>4897480
keep asking once a day for payment

can i get a critique of the most recent reference I've done

>>4897480
tell him he's a faggot and his family is ugly thats why you charged so much because it was painful to draw

>>4897480
would you pay for it?

>>4897209
Keep it up, work on making sure the chin line registers as parallel to the horizontal line of the sphere though

just do vilppu MEGA course. Download videos on topic about drawing that you struggle with. He is god reincarnate who came down to help all of us lowly peasants with drawing, and so many take the FREE classes which go indepth as fuck for granted https://mega.nz/folder/RIx3TJxJ#_Nna8t01kPxENJ8KSzXqwg/folder/EUJHgKAZ

Is it just me or does the difficulty ramps up very fast with this one
how much time should one spend on this book?

This is the true hard round brush. Just set its hardness to max on CSP and thats literally it.

Such a based fucking brush oh my god

>>4897004
It's awesome...

welp this thread died quickly

>>4897491
The neck, arm, and legs are long. The knee on their left leg is pointing towards the viewer while the foot is facing away, making it look broken. The colors are nice, though, good on not going 000 on the hair.

Grind 10-minute figure drawing exercises.

>>4897480
Cut your loses, roast him for being an ugly, cheap faggot, never draw without recieving payment before hand again, and GITGUD because that portait was wack and you knew you didn't have the skills to be drawng for pay in the first fucking place.

>>4897948
you fucking roasted the shit out of him but its deserved

I have a severe headache on my left side.
I think it's occipital neuralgia.
I think it's because I worked on my display tablet leaning over it. I had it angled like pros have angled drawing surface, but my chair was too low and I didn't bother raising it. I also spent some time looking at my phone with my head craning forward while I was leaning back.
Anyone with the same experience?
It woke me up 3 hours into my sleep, and I've been having stabbing pain every few seconds. I'm disabled for the day.

So, what's the secret to learning how to draw? It obviously isn't actually trying to draw, reading Drawing on the Right side of the brain, reading Loomis, watching Vilppu's course or taking drawing lessons in real life since not of that did anything. So what is it? What is the secret?

>>4898013
literally just dont be retarded. If you can understand the patterns around you in the world and recreate them on paper then you are going to learn

>>4898013
The secret is to not listen to the crab rave that haunts /ic/ and will nitpick good art for bullshit reasons, utterly dismiss middle art, and tell beginners they're never gonna make it. Focus on ratios and proportions and basic shapes when you look at your body and references and just draw often forever and you'll improve.

>Here is a cube
>Here is a slightly rotated cube

Glad I'm not the only one feeling this

>>4897633
not that Beg but I was told to do 30 second figures, I only managed to draw anything that looked somewhat human within at least two minutes at best.

What benefits are there for doing 10 minute drawings?

critique pls, but please be constructive not dismissive so i can improve.
i don't normally draw quite like this and i also did this all from imagination. i wanted to see how i'd do.

>>4898013
drawing, loomis, reading the sticky and a hint of autism.
I'm still beg but I improve little by little.

>>4898029
I started off doing 10 minutes to get an idea of what I was most comfortable with, dropped it to 5, then 1. It helped me figure out what I should focus on and how to quickly look at a figure, without getting too caught up about the time constraint.

>>4897948
You're right, I'm trash and was stupid for believing someone wanted to pay for my work, even if they said they would. I wish I was dead.

>>4898152
I am feeling what you are feeling right now.
Just get better and one day redo it for them, you'll all have a laugh about it

Still looking for a good guide to draw detailed trees.

Could someone please help?

how long will it take for me to stop drawing loomis heads and just do it without lines like the pros?

>>4898223
pros also use lines friendo

>>4898230

Im gonna Coom

Hey guys, I posted this in the older /beg/ thread, I didn’t notice this one. Anyone have tips on how I could learn to draw like Felix Colgrave? I just want to make random crazy shit from my mind. Should I just start fundies and then start to focus on imagination? Pic related.

How do I stop sketching and finally move on to other steps?

>>4898337
Free your mind and your ass will follow

>>4898344
Could you elaborate on this? Should I listen to Funkadelic while drawing?

>>4898223
>do it without lines like the pros
that's how I always draw

>>4898341
By finishing your piece bro? Like come on now.

>>4896726
been trying to draw faces base on the way a artist i like does it. How is it.

will post artist

>>4898369
pic related
can anyone give me any advice on how to draw like pic

I did the box thing too. Am I gmi now?

>>4898371
loomis

>>4898372
why are your boxes all vibrating

>>4898382
meme or is that really the deal here

>>4898385
those are loomis heads

>>4898349
Imagination isn't something you can grind or focus on, it comes from being able to soak up details from the world around you and then letting your brain freely make connections between disparate ideas and symbols. It's a subconscious process, if your mind isn't already overflowing with surreal imagery then trying to force it into existence will only result in contrivance. Surreal stems from the real, so focus on the real things you can see every second you can, while breaking down your own prejudices of what makes something boring or interesting. Do that for long enough and crazy ideas will seem to come to you out of nowhere, leaving you feeling like you have no choice but to create them. Through that process your brain will pick up on so many rules of what makes something look like it exists in front of your eyes that Loomis etc. will seem more like the distilled basics of systems of thought you were already arriving at on your own rather than bewildering technical manuals.

tl;dr: Listen to more Funkadelic

>>4898390
Really?

i have the loomis books but his eyes and mouth are only one page.

>>4898401
every head construction method is a derivative from loomis; anyone: hampton, huston, hitokaku, bridgman, you need to simplify it, you are not going to use ever construction line that loomis uses to construct a human face to use it the same way to draw an anime head that would be plain stupid, but you can take the circle, the jaw lines and the eye lines, simplify the planes of the head and play a bit with proportions and voila you used the loomis method to draw an anime head, use your brain snd think what are you doing, that is the best advice anyone could ever give you

>>4898297
gimme critique

>>4898383
should i unironically do drawabox. i can't do a straight line freehand

>>4898399
Wow, thank you for the detailed advice anon. I’m going to get started

>>4898033
I think it is cute Anon maybe you should move over to /asg/ now?

How awful is this, so far, and how can I fix it?

Vilppu's drawing manual or Hampton's figure drawing book?
>inb4 Hampton is the same as Vilppu

If I mess up or just am not very good at one of the Drawabox exercises, should I redo it until I'm somewhat decent at it, or should I just keep powering through?

>>4897948
Today I sent him "hey, I'm fine with you being late with paying, and I'm even OK with giving you a lower price, but I'm not comfortable with the lack of communication. please let me know if you still intend on paying." If he doesn't wanna pay or doesn't reply in a few days I'll put him on blast on the facebook group he met me on.

Ever have to redraw something and it isn’t as good?

>>4898836
Gonna need to redo the eye for the 5th time

>>4898586
Thicken the right leg. And make the left arm thinner for a start

>>4898341
Go over it in thick lines on a new layer. Btw based lactation fetishist

what went wrong?

>>4898842

>>4898842

Did this in 20 minutes at a friends house while drunk. Really proud of it.

>>4898842
You need Coomis because she clearly has one nasty yeast infection.

>>4898842
black lines + painted

???

>>4898842
Made me gag. Loomis & better taste.

perspective is hard kek

>>4898864
Please elaborate. Coloring shouldn’t also have black lines?

>>4898954
if you are painting, specifically in that style as well. I would advise against black lines. it makes the image look flat, but also combines 3d aspects.

You just end up having an amalgamation that doesnt make sense to look at

>>4898969
I see. It’s not so much the lines themselves as the color. They should be made to match with whatever they’re outlining so they blend in better to reduce the conflict between a flat color with everything else being more 3D?

>>4896782
This actually looks good. The eyes are too far down the face or more like, there isn't enough room on the face for the eyes. the eyes are a bit too big. Try studying your reference before you start drawing.

>>4897029
Her posture is so painfully stiff. her leg is broken. Her pelvis faces the front but the rest of her body is leaning to the right.

Her face looks so cluttered and flat and blank.


Don't just think about drawing a beautiful women when you're drawing. think about THE WOMEN. Think about how painfully she's standing. Think about how she's LITTERALLY breaking her leg. Think about how she's showing LITTERALLY NO EXPRESSION ON HER FACE.


the line art and character design is pretty good tho. I coomed.

>>4898842
the way you drew her pussy looks so off putting. It's quite clear that you don't have much of an understanding of anatomy.

Her hand is flat. the perspective of her left leg is off. It looks like you drew her torso as a literal cylinder/tube.


It looks like you're shading something you don't have a firm grasp of. FEEL THE FORM.

and use a reference. my god.

also, please look at a real vagina. maybe that will help you in the future.

Help, my ellipses... I think they're autistic.

test

I'm starting Proko's portrait drawing course, and I did this as a pre-test to see where my knowledge is at before I get started (and also have something to compare to once I've made some progress).

>>4899131
You practically aren’t an beginner with that skill desu

>>4899137
Should i delete and post in the main draw thread?

>>4899138
Nah it’s nice. It’s good inspo for beginners

>>4899138
Not them, but there's no harm in getting advice from people here. But you definitely seem pretty good, I think you'd get better advice in the places more suited to people of your skill level.
I'm sure some people there will tell you to come back here, but that's the way the crab crumbles.

>>4899142
>>4899143
Fair points. I'll probably repost it in the main draw thread just to see what they say as well. Thanks bros

>>4899131
Why did you gave him negroid eyes

I know my shading could use work but what do you think about my forms and anatomy? I drew the body with out a reference, but for the head I used Anna from Shimoneta. Also sorry for coom but I was super horny this morning and drew this instead of jerking off

>>4899148
I got that feeling too, but I feel like it's more the nose and upper lip that have the African American look to them.

>>4899150
Sorry for sideways pic

>>4898842

>>4899154
I did the shading a little better, i think

>>4898842
It looks like spiders are about to crawl out of there

My critiques on this piece please

>>4899227
Her shadow looks weird and why is she shitting out of her pussy?

>>4899230
I’m not good at sharing. Know any techniques to improve? I need struggle with knowing where to put shadows.

And she’s not shitting, she’s taking a black dick

>>4897282
It's beg but I actually like this. The colors are nice and the girls' face is cute.

sex

how are you gonna learn the fundies if you're just focused on making your pp hard all the time?

>>4899318
You need to put more time into your pictures because none of them look all that good dispite the rate you're putting them out

>>4899363
I spent over 4 hours on it. Fuck you. I should just quit and never fucking try again, since I'm apparently too retarded to know how to draw.

>>4899371
Don’t take it too harshly. /ic/ has shit taste in art and they’d rate some poorly drawn furries over a real piece of art. Your drawing is pretty good

>>4898586
What?

>>4898838
What? Why?

>>4899485
Foreshortened perspective.the left arm and right leg would be different sizes because of how close they are to the “camera view point”

>>4899371
If you are the guy who does art on the tan paper it’s an improvement. Ngl gross looking subject tho. Draw her

>>4899554
your GF anon?

>>4899552
I know. I thought they were different sizes. I thought you were asking me to make them the same size.

>>4899554
Is that a realdoll lmao

Here's an update...

>>4899371
I understand that your ego took a kick to the ass over not getting paid for that other terrible picture, but you really need to calm the hell down and reassest why you're mindless drawing 1:1 headshots.

>>4899123
Nice figures

will i learn anything from tracing? also, should i be doing figure studies on paper or digital with a pentab is fine?

im the beggiest begtard to ever beg in the realm of /beg/ and im never gonna change :C

>>4899371
Don't take anyone's comment that's basically try harder seriously. There's a lot of people that say this.
I would say you might be possibly not constructing the reference first properly and more focused on doing likeness.

>>4899371
Cringe

>>4899371
>I spent over 4 hours on it. Fuck you. I should just quit and never fucking try again, since I'm apparently too retarded to know how to draw.

Stop using CTRL + Z. Stop undoing. Its a beg trap and nothing more. If you cannot make the line the way you want it within 2 tries, then you need to stop using undo. I thought I was improving but in reality I just had a warp sense of improvement because of how I could edit/undo things.

>>4896726
When do I get to draw cartoons?
This fucking pisses me off, I wanna draw cartoons but everyone is saying you need a certain level to do so which of course means you have to grind loomis but when I do try to draw without doing loomis first I get a feeling in the back of my mind that I should definitely be doing loomis first which really hinders my thought process when I want to draw something else.

>>4899847
Do both at the same time. Study but when you get bored have fun. When you hate what you draw then go back to studying.

>>4899847
And another thing this guy >>4895752 is saying you can without the level BULLSHIT no you can't just look at your drawing the guy who replied to him is right you can't ink yet whoever you are and it fucking pisses me off and kills my enjoyment for drawing.


So now I say peace to my dirty water drinkers because ain't nobody tell me I could leave. And why ain't nobody tell me I was bleeding? Please don't pinch me out this dreamin'

>>4899371
Yes, you clearly can't make it with an attitude like that

Rate the amount of soul of my Hyper-Lactose San

Rate the amount of soul of my Hyper-Lactose San.

no rules, just tools, faggot. the only things that literally matter is the end result, not your progress.

>>4899899
No ya fucking asshole, you can't dictate me. You fucking dick, you prick, bastard. Cocksucker. I bet you can't even do 5d perspective right.

>>4899896
Try to draw it with less line strokes. Less chicken scratch

>>4899913
No FUCK YOU the chicken scratch gives it soul.

Chicken scratch is SOUL, bitches.

>>4899913
Should i try inking to get a clean pass and save it?, i was still in the ''line search thing'', but my lines are always wobbly as fuck when using the felt tip pen

>>4899915
Man, if things only worked that way.

This website is shit and I hope you all die not making it

>>4899921
Wait a sec, this one should look way better.

>>4899921
Looking slighty less gross now.

>>4899930
If it's such a problem why do you make it like Michael Jackson and beat it.

>>4899921
Maybe now?

>>4899954

>>4899962
Nice blackline, now i really should do more [meme 40s illustrator] heads and not bother with cartoons until then.

Started this a few months back as an entry into using my Wacom, first of all I sinned and traced what I have so far, but in my defence I've gained a better understanding of bodyshape and colour.

I was on a roll with this right up until I hit trying to do the hair, I'm not going to trace it but every time I've tried to tackle it I've not liked it. Seen a few guides but it put me in a slump real bad (That plus going back into work giving me less time).

Plan is once I've got the hair how I want it I'm going to go back and touch up all the other finer details that either don't look right, are still rough, or the shading/colours need work.

Honestly by the end I want this to look good, because it's the most detailed piece I've worked on so far.

>>4899999
That's a great piece anon, can you post the reference separately so I can study it better? So I can give better tips.

>>4900001
Gotchu senpai
I can see a lot of it that needs work
Mainly colours used and transitions between shades. Idk if that's down to using Krita or I'm shading wrong, do want to get a crack of the Adobe suite at some point.

>>4900009
he's about to nut inside of our fucking ears, anal cavaties and dickholes with his art skill isnt he?

>>4899999
that arm was bothering the fuck outta me

Why can't I seem to feel the fucking form even if I try? Should I draw bigger?

>>4899589
Ink it, bitch!

I have a question about how to go about training up my mechanical drawing? I have this real bad habit of going back on my lines that I've already drawn lines. Just wondering if they're any resources to help me in that area? Like maybe a book or exercise

does anyone know why the vanishing point here is split into 4?

well lads here we are, one day out from 100, i did a quick one today as i know tomorrow will be a ten hour sesh on one head

Stay mad faggot. “YOU CANT DO SOMETHING YOUR SKILL LEVEL ISNT THERE YET!”
How do you think you improve at inking, without trying?

This autistic idea that you need to litness test yourself before you can experiment and try shit is retarded.
Obviously learn fundamentals but it doesn’t mean you need to autistically focus on one thing.

wait hold on did you even reply to the right person? Assuming ur still ITT

Imo this looks great

feedback?

backfeed?

actual autist here. is it obvious im trying to do a perpective thing with the right wing or does it look like left is just way bigger? my monkey brain just cant fucking tell.

>>4899999
checked

>>4900186
too kind thanks

>>4900272
feel

Left was from like 2 ~ 3 weeks ago, am I starting to feel the form bros?

>>4900378
kinda, but your knowledge about anatomy is holding you back pay more attention to that and try one step at the time

>>4900381
Wdym with one step at a time? I'm currently focusing on perspective, while doing anatomy on the side should I focus most of my time on drawing parts I'm having the most trouble with? or should just learn in a listed way (head, neck, torso, etc)?

>>4899371
anon I left /ic/ like 2016 this is my skill level now. literally just draw and lurk. this board is toxic and will eat u alive.

how do you get really good?
i feel kind of lost, do you just do studies of pictures?

How to make this more appealing?

what if i need the lips lmao

>>4900696
REMOVE THEM

>>4900686
Eyebrows, Make ears smaller, lose the pointy teeth, cheeks too round, even if you want to keep them fat, the cheeks are probably the most cringe thing about it. Tongue too round looks like fetish shit and people will subconsciously pick up on that

put them somewhere else

Hmmm don't take this the wrong way anon but to me it seems that you intended this picture to be a derogatory caricature of an asian person.

Tried to some figure drawings trying to just work on shapes and movement.
Purple I did a few days ago, then ones in black I just did

where do i get such knowledge

Where do I start if I want to draw figures? Anatomy, gesture, etc? I'm a bit lost at where to go when I get tired of drawing boxes for the day.

>>4901093
gesture first but ideally keep doing both

>>4901095
Oh yeah, the plan's to do boxes daily until I get tired of that for that day and move onto figure somehow.
I just have been seeing conflicting information as to whether I should start with gesture or anatomy.

>>4899105
draw bigger ellipses

could you guys tell me which of the pictures in my featured section are the best and worst so i know which ones to push and which ones to stop pushing? When I post here or on IG I'm barely getting any engagement whatsoever. So I without feedback I don't know how to adjust.

and by "here" i meant deviant art

>>4901115
the robot dentist definitely the street with the fisheye, the skelly on the piano keys.

What should my first gesture figures look like? Mine just look like disproportionate bendy stick figures.

>>4901187
Sounds good

Anyone have any opinions on Michael Hampton's Figure Drawing book?

>>4901207
It's an excellent resource for learning the super basics of anatomy. Skip loomis, read Hampton.

>>4897209
very nice anon
you’ve gotten me back into practicing

>>4898341
where did you learn to draw heads/faces/body like that??

>>4898341
twitter?

>>4900032
Ok, I inked it, but is it worth going any further with? Or did I just make it worse?

sketch dump, any tips on how to be cleaner, i feel like i have to erase the same mistate a thousand times, and by the time i actually fix it the paper is exahusted, also, i dont know how to draw curly/wavy hair

>Skip loomis, read Hampton.
How DARE you?! Get out of this place! This is a Loomis board!!!

>>4901419
i dont know when the shoulder blades, teres major, teres minor and infraspinatus are supposed to show up, every reference that i look up looks different

>>4901420

>>4901401
GTFOH! Dude, do you post your stuff anywhere else?

You're not /beg. I'm tired of seeing you.

>>4901429
dude, he is beg, its just that he has learned a few perspective tricks

>>4901429
anytime a picture has clean lines theres sure to follow a /beg/ saying the art is amazing, every. single. time

>>4901122
so you're leaning toward the more detailed stuff.

>>4901413
i like it. i guess you should ink it. or throw it in photoshop and draw the linework in another layer.

lowe leg is kind of bad though. i think the front of the leg on the left should come out further. like the shin bone going into the foot

>>4901437
Yes but I am just 1 /beg/ guy

>>4901441
damn i just noticed that, thanx for pointing it out, im sure that ithe anatomy is all kinds of wrong, im experimenting drawimg more boney characters

>>4901434
>>4901435
You guys are the biggest fucking haters I've ever seen. You don't point out the faults in a work specifically looking for critique, instead you try to convince the fanboy to stop giving props.

God, /beg's gone to shit.

>>4901450
stfu pu$$y

>>4901450
seethe and dilate

>>4901429
Well... I appreciate your critique.

>>4896726
at work so can't draw much but i got away with practice cause boss is yelling at one of the guys for something that never happened. I am not expecting him back till higher up comes down to scream at him back so here is what i did. I know it has flaws but posting helps me know it at least isn't that bad.

To they guy who told me to study loomis figure. Sorry it isn't for me and i had problems doing it so i went back to morpho body after looking back at older works and seeing i was doing better. I even forgot how to draw it like i did before cause of loomis but thank god i relearned it.I do plan to at least study loomis heads

>>4901501
forgot

>>4900095
that would be weird though. theyre two houses next to each other. why wouldnt all that stuff be parallel?

>>4898341
soc media pls

There's probably not much to comment on, but anything helps. I'm an idiot and didn't save the process layers.

>>4897282
stop the habit of shit talking your own art now

How do I art this good?

how to do rim lighting like this? The tutorials on youtube I find don't have this same effect with the subtle light dispersion.
it's way less subtle

>>4901653
lighten+diffuse glow

>>4901653
select area, expand, blur, fill with any layer blend mode you desire

>>4901649
HAHAHAHAHHAHA

>>4901658
>>4901659
I appreciate this anons, thanks!

>>4901401
This actually looks really cool..........if you're settling for line art. Time to take things to the next level.

>>4901187
This is probably the best explanation for gesture drawing

as i know everyone is eagerly awaiting my 100th face, this is the current progress, not sure if i want to paint it or not yet

trying to find consistent rendering style which I can easily apply to my future drawings

well guys i just want to thank all 4 people that commented over these past 100 faces, big inspiration, i want to thank my mum for feeding me tendies and cheering me on, not hugely happy with the finished piece and probably prefer the wip but hey we keep moving

>>4896726
I'd like to learn how to do good graffiti, anyone got any experience or a starting point? I've not picked up a pencil or even thought about drawing in 10 years+

stuff

>>4899318
I'm the newest fucker on this board, in all my years on 4chan I've never been here until today. Personally I think that looks amazing

Is copying a good way to practice?

>>4901370
Practice. :) It mostly comes from Disney and American comic books.

>>4901554

>>4902089
Sure, looks good. Now draw it again but mirrored.

>>4899227
I know that you're desperate to draw coom but at least learn gesture ffs

Doodled this on a sticky note at work today. First time drawing anything in like, 10 years. How'd I do, /beg/?

Drew this for fun, still shit on my values.

>>4902210
Read sticky

>>4896726

>>4902253
looks pretty cool

>>4902210
its cute.

>>4902253
very nice. only problem is the bucket shape. the rest is cool

>>4902269
lmao, who is that? looks cool enough for the moment. gotta finish it

thread full of coomers as usual. wish i didn't have to share the board with these "artists"

tips on lineart?

I only know how to do flat colors. Is there anything that can help with doing more? I can find stuff on blending but nothing further than that.

quick redraw i did of a lore Olympus panel (1-ish hour) i was focusing on using more textures, does this look ok?

>>4902336

>>4902369
ty

>>4902336
Looks nice anon, leg and feet needs improvement imo. The left leg looks too long for me

>>4900022
quick redline, hope it helps a bit, and soften up that face a bit, i mostly wanted to touch up on some things without completely revamping the piece, hope it helps a bit, you have some real potential!

>>4902375
thank you, it is too long, i need to keep more in mind proportions when constructing the body

>>4902337
Please help

>>4902318
Isn't there a thread for the cumbrained retards? Why don't they stick to it?

Bros, I'm finally almost done with the fucking 250 boxes in drawabox. I looked through my work, and my boxes got a lot better after 50 or so. Then again, they got better after 170 of so. So that is two noticeable level-ups.

>>4901643
>stop the habit of shit talking your own art now
does that help?

>>4902312
Thanks man, trying to improve on my inking. Here's the bare one for reference.

>>4902421
Not really, but the crabs don't like it when you steal their shtick. They're here to discourage you. If you're already discouraged then they can't have any fun.

what do you guys recommend for beginner exercises to get on the path of doing figure drawing?

>>4902337
Show some work of yours. But if you have problem with color grading maybe start with monochormes. Tbh im just talking out of my ass here but it helped when i tried watercolor.

>>4902439

>>4902315
why lmao? its nobody just an idea i wanted to sketch. yea i need to finish.

>>4902449
Hmmm start with adding shadows and highlights. I suggest start with black and white then build your way if you see progress.

>>4902467
What do you mean by changing it to black and white?

Been doing a lot of Drawabox and Gesture exercised because I don't really feel confident enough just drawing something I wanna draw.
I feel like I'm burning out, but still can't find it in me to complete a drawing when I'm halfway through and it looks like trash. Any advice?

me me doodle comic.

>>4902420
Righteous! Keep going!

It's very difficult for me to get rid of stiffness in my drawings. Because of this, they seem the same and boring. The critique will be much appreciated

>>4902210
I like it. got more?

What's a good ref for anime girls with their chin tilted upward.

>>4902654
non existant, that angle literally never happens because of a reason, best thing youll find is a very slight tilt upwards

>>4901968
seriously nothing from no one?

>>4902806
Good job Anon! I hope you learned somesthings from your experiences.

Can you tell us what you've learned? Anything at all.

>>4902870
thanks anon, i learnt that drawing from life and drawing what you see is more important than learning every plane of the face although planes are still important to learn, and learning of the two side/cheek planes are the most important to understanding the form of the face and how the face has thickness to it, you need a balance of doing a course (marco buccis, villpus head course etc) and drawing from good photo references to apply the knowledge you learn. I think the most important expereice i have learnt is just the power of drawing daily, a lot of days i would never have drawn if it wasnt for the fact i didnt want to break my streak so i feel this challenge is good for beginners as it keeps you going, having a goal is very important to keep yourself on track

>>4902876
thanks Anon

What's a good source to learn color and painting in-general?
