are you that dude who was making a weird lombax alien comic?

>>5230508
The art isn't mine friend. I drew the iguana and turtle in the previous thread.

I drew this raccoon guy. I'm trying to go for that clean ligne claire sort of style that you see in European comics. let me know what you think

>>5230648
he's cute, i like it.

Apparently someone bother to save the uncolored version, if you are here thanks u.u

Hi its the noob /beg/ bird artist again

I did this plus a lot of other art shit today before work. I feel pretty proud for waking up early and drawing for several hours.

>>5230713

also did this before that

And heres my warmup shitpost involving more anthro birds.

You bet your ass I uploaded all of these on twitter for ultimate self gratification.

one more shitpost im sorry

>>5230503
i can't take that picture seriously with those plush toy kind of creatures.

>>5230708
you can tell if people save your pics?

>>5230852
Someone posted it in the scalie thread on /trash/

>>5230884
ah I see, trash is a godforsaken place

hoi. Here is my latest drawing. Had a lot of problems with face. To be honest, I have big problems with appeal and I don't know what I can do about it other than studying other artists. Any thoughts?

>>5230908
Its good when you filter everything you dont like, nobody is forced to like everything there

I've drawn a bird.
Destroy me /fag/

amogus

>>5231023
Frankly i dont like how it looks however it doesnt look bad.i think if you cleaned it up, it would look fine. Is it a reference to something? Why does it wear a silly mask like the noid?

>>5231067
The face looks good. Practice legs and hands if you hid them on purpose.

>>5231067
>>5231023
why are you gae

>>5231109
not hidden on purpose just thought it looks cute

>>5231119
damn he looks stinky i wanna smell him

>>5231106
>Is it a reference to something?
No ref or idea behind it. I wanted to improve my drawing of faces.

>>5231119

Ur way better at drawing birds than me i hope ill be as good one day

>>5231119

shitty guitar

>>5230503

Woah! You picked my painting as the thread starter? Thanks, OP.

>>5230508
>>5230535

FWIW, that's not me either. I haven't tried to do a comic in the better part of a decade.

>>5230799
C'est la vie. I stopped worrying about being "taken seriously" back in high school.

>>5230648

I'd say it's successful. Although if you wanna go full Tintin, you could probably reduce the internal drawing of the wrinkles.

That's a matter of taste, though. Good drawing either way.

>>5231566
I wanted to be an asshole and post my own work in the op but then i felt bad and felt that you did a good job. Keep it up friend. Love your stuffed animal piece.

>>5231602

Well thank you very much. I still have a lot of work to do on the ruined city piece, but I've got a paying client who wants me to do this Zombie (my least favorite subject) Artwork for a video game, so I don't know when I'll have a chance to get it done.

>>5231566
it's a shame cuz you got the mood right, the picture only get diminished by the poor design of the characters

>>5231621
Does he want a furry zombie or human zombie? Also how did you end up with clients? Did you just throw yourself out there and did the best you could?

>>5231638
Human. It's key art for a game. As for how I personally get clients, I applied online with a bunch of agencies when I saw their listings on indeed. I had interviews with several, but this is the only one that bore fruit. They usually toss me a handful of jobs a month. Not enough to live on, but nice supplementary income.

Earlier this month I got paid to play a game made by one of their clients and figure out what didn't work about the art style. So that was easy money.

>>5231659
Nice dude! I might give it a try. Thanks for sharing, youre gonna make it!

>>5231633

You should have seen the visual dissonance with them in some of my older work.

Would posting my shit here and getting feedback be more efficient for gitting gud than grinding fundies in a vacuum?
I think establishing a feedback loop could help me stay consistent in practicing.

>>5230648
Classy.

>>5232079

POST.

>>5231023
nice rendering skills, I can tell your problem mostly comes from choosing to add the wrong kind of realistic detail on what should mostly be an stylized sort of drawing but even that would be ok if those lips and eye did not looked so uncannily human, specially the lips. With that said I can tell you are really close to making a breaktrhough and I would love to see more art from u in the future.

>>5231566
that drawing of your looks cute from a afar, but the guy looks sad and tired :(

>>5232063
dude, if kingdom hearts and half of modern animes and videogames get away with it, so can you, own that dissonant artstyle like a boss!!

>>5232122

The hallmark of all my work. Everyone always says my characters look sad, or pensive, or tired. I suppose I'm not a very jolly fellow, myself.

>>5232127

I got over it relatively young. When I was a teenager I used to think, "It's a bit silly, putting these cartoon characters into these realistic settings." but by the time I hit college I was way over that.

Nowadays I tend to do a lot more landscapes and cities that are relatively realistic and less fantastical, but that's just my development as an artist, not me trying to be "serious".

>>5232113
Thanks for your reply! Stylization is tough topic for me. I want to have realistic human like eyes, but it's really easily to make uncanny. One thing that make me worry that I can't say sometime say is it looks good or not during drawing.

>>5231566
>>5232207
I think the main reason why the character you drew sleeping appears to be "old". Is most likely a mix between the giant nose and the "wrinkles". As humans the older we grow the bigger our noses get, so in theory this can be applied to art as well. By just simply making the nose a lot smaller it makes the character appear a lot younger as a result. Keep in mind big noses are okay, i'd just recommend keeping them on older characters. Also I should add that I made the head a little smaller since, once again younger characters tend to have smaller heads, compared to adult heads anyway.

You're a pretty good artist so I don't have anything else to say.

>>5233310
It's not the nose, big nosed young characters are quite common, but so many wrinkles and neutral expression def give the impression of tiredness.

I'm getting a tablet/scanner someday, i swear

>>5233750
Shit, here's a less fucked one

>>5232079
post only once in a while. like every couple weeks, or just once per thread.

post too much and you just start drawing for something to post and worry about "this is the one i wanna post it has to be good" thing

Where is all the fanart
why is she ignored

>>5233921
draw some then. this isn't a request thread

>>5233928

I'm not making requests I am asking the furrys at the source a question

>>5233936
because furries are 200% gay and legosi is a babe

>>5233029
>>5231023
I think your rendering is completely amazing and appealing, though I guess I would recommend thinking about character design. Maybe not the modern neon sparkledogs of today as your style is more refined and sophisticated than that.
Maybe that might be it, giving your characters a more sophisticated look a la Victorian or something or think about a style(s) you like and try incorporating it.

>>5233310
I understand what you're saying, but I think changing his face like that would make him look way too neotenous.

>>5233662
I'm actually ok with him looking tired or worn out. I think most of my work has a sense of ambivalence to it. I rarely draw anything that's perfectly beautiful or overwhelmingly positive.

>>5233961

fucking hell
i hate you furfags with a passion

>>5233921
over shadowed by legoshi and louis

>>5233983
I made this edit. For me the original wasn't an issue with looking tired, but the character looking old. Just removed some of the wrinkles but still keeping some to look tired and sleeping.

>>5230648
Love your lines

>>5234184

Fair enough. It's tricky when you get down to those little details, especially since the original drawing was ink on paper. I'm also not happy with the way his hands came out. Too big and stiff.

Originally I wanted to paint this too, but that would be way too much of a time investment.

hi

>>5234656
hiya

>>5234394
back when i did trad stuff i would always clean up in photoshop after the fact

collab piece i did, sketch/coloring was mine and the lineart was done by a friend

im not very good at this

>>5230503
90% of my doodles end up with fox heads and tails by the end. Wonder if I'm furry.

I posted img 1 here two weeks ago... y'all gave me advice... I did some drawabox, watched videos, took advice..... it's getting better bros....

I still have so far to go, but things are looking up

>>5230648
>>5230658
>>5231570
>>5234345
thanks, I think you're right about the wrinkles, it clutters up the drawing a bit. I tried doing another drawing, let me know what you think
>>5234875
this turned out really nice! the character on the left looks really concerned about that frog lol
>>5234989
I think that sketch is quite nice, it reminds me of the fantastic mr. fox movie

>>5235233
you improved quite a lot in 2 weeks. well done bro.

>>5235233
you really made some meaninful improvements anon, I am glad for you!

>>5235233
>nipples aren't pocking out of her shirt
Anon, you had one job!
Other than that, neat improvement for 2 weeks.

Edgy boi i'm working on.

>>5235434
almost there, but you need to work on the silhouette of the torso

>>5235233
For two weeks that's a rather considerable improvement.
>watched videos, took advice
What in particular?

>>5235233
Nice job, your abs were better in the before though.

degenerates

>>5235642

>>5235642
I'm only degenerate for 15 minutes a day. I like wholesome stuff more.

>>5235642
>Namefag

>>5235233
Holy shit just 2 weeks? This is some inspirational stuff, what was your routine?

I want to continue these kinda drawings into a repetitive thing where its just them adventuring in various forests and nature and stuffs.

I'm becoming a furry. How do i stop wanting to draw furries railing human girls.

Pic related is what planted this curse in me.

>>5236384
Don’t show him the doggie picture

>>5236411
What doggie picture? Also I tried to design furries. It's hard.

Do you guys like cows....?

>>5236431

Nice rendered picture but the doggie isn't standing on his two feet it's not my type of jab

Finally finished the sketch from two threads ago

lariat

>>5236652
This is really beautiful, how do you learn to render like that?
>>5236933
cute!

>>5236652
well done, i like the color and background

>>5233921
I draw her

>>5237288
prove it

>>5236933
>>5234656
You seriously need to stop drawing her Anon.
She's too cute my heart can't take it anymore.

>>5236486
>one of the two pics that sent a certain white box into a rage fit
An /ic/ classic. I always have to grin when I see them.

Bailing out on this one. The rabbit’s design is a complete disaster. The raccoon is the it’s I’ve ever drawn her, though.

>watch Watership Down
>notice that rabbit head head-on looks very simple, like three circles smooshed together (or a microchode)
>want to try it myself
>have terrible habit of doing art well after I am burnt out on work
>So tired, but must draw bune
I did it. I finally make something to post to /fag/

>>5237881
Interesting design. Racoons' limbs don't look well-defined against the rest of their body because of the fur, so I don't think that line between the belly and the thigh is photorealistic.

>>5236479
The head is giving me anime vibes

>>5237905
Thank you, anon

>>5238428

>>5238626
how do you make clothing folds look so natural/aesthetic? any particular thing you studied?

>>5238664
moderndayjames has a great series on them, they follow surprisingly consistent rules for how random they look at first. There are only a handful of fold types, once you've learned them all you will start seeing them everywhere. You can learn a lot just by trying to identify the tension points on peoples clothing and seeing how the fabric reacts

>>5238712
thanks i'll look into that, love your work

>>5233967
Thank you! I really like works of old masters. This is my artistic goal. But I also want to bring some fresh/modern touch in it.

>>5235274
this is really nice anon, love the clean lines and clothes plus the expression. Add a story to this. Right now he is doing nothing. always think of a story to tell, you've already got the appeal and quality down so go all the way.

>>5236652
subarashi

tell me how you made the water

>>5238626
holy fuck this cat used to be so happy. I remember the night time strolls and then he slowly gets absolutely fucking depressed. Are you alright bro?

really great illustration overall

>>5239272
I just followed this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZO0dFfCoiQ&ab_channel=BlueLightningTVPhotoshop

A quick drawing that I found interesting - made on a flashback I had to the time last year where I was somehow rendered incapacitated for 3 weeks straight by a common fucking cold
>>5239284
Not him but cat was always depressed as far as i remember, the stroll was a rare highlight

Please post literally every art you ever made into a imgur gallery or something. What's your process? How long you been drawing?
So many question please don't blue-ball us.

>>5244966
Why is he so sad

>>5244966
Constructive criticism would be better anon, there is nothing that is inherently bad for your design but the widened head and necc are not helping your character that much, specially not the necc

>>5244966
>>5245118
I guess Anon pointed out the main criticism. I actually really like this design, and on the left pose it looks really good, but front on I guess the neck floof is a bit too wide, that's it really.

Been writing a PMD game, but i can't decide on the bag colors, what would be a nice pallete? I know about coolors.co and all but i need some human ideas, and yes, i do know about mienfoo fucked up legs

>>5245043
he is pretty stoic, his family and everyone he knew are killed and now he is getting his revenge à la KINO punch
>>5245118
>>5245202
I see thanks guys, maybe I will play around with the design a bit more, some others thought he is pretty bland which I agree too

>>5245227
I guess you can add a few more marking(s) like the black star on their chest but you don't have to overdesign them. Something subtle in the lower torso region to fill in the design but also space things out.

i am gay

>>5245016
I don't have all my traditional things saved. And not planing on having an online gallery for now.
>How long you been drawing?
All my life, but more seriously for the last couple of years. I'm honestly pretty bad for how long I'v been at it. Whoops

>>5246088
I dig the ear and chest floof

wew, now that I toned down his necc

>>5245343
>Something subtle in the lower torso region to fill in the design but also space things out.
the most appropriate additions

and now with outfits

>>5246088
Oh you're the one that drew that, should of known. All your designs and pieces have been just top notch, please keep up the great work, I genuinely look forward to seeing anything you make.

>>5245702
very cute
blog?

>>5246456
I have None. sorry

>>5246130
>Whoops
I don´t think a blacked dick and balls was what he was thinking when he suggested you to be subtle and space things out anon.

Progress update. Wish I was done by now but...

>>5247289
This is reallly soulful and have some 80s though

>>5247289
This has a reallly soulful 80s and 90s feel to it, the cars are a little undersized though

>>5233921
I just think she's neat.

>>5247560

You know, I had the same thought last night when I stopped working on this. I think it's because the Inkpad gradation effects are somewhat reminiscent of airbrush effects, and that gouache was a really common illustration paint before digital took over.

So working with those materials is like traveling back in time to a pre-digital era.

It's rare I draw furshit, but this one came out surprisingly nice. Reminds me that I need to practice animals more often...

is there anywhere i can go to find furry art rivals? im more productive when im surrounded by people who are making cool shit. i havent been drawing much as of late. i just want to work on my project but havent had the drive.

Well that's just neeto

>>5246130

his junk is enormous. Way oversized. He's also got some crosseye going on.

>>5247564
I've literally been staring at this all day, everything is just so perfect, so pure too. God-like work, keep it up.

>>5248875

Any thots guise?

>>5247192
oh that was just a half-joke haha
I will add some blacks around his crotch/thighs and the feet to balance them out for sure
>>5249346
really? I never thought his junk is too big, maybe I'm just too used to it
>He's also got some crosseye going on.
oof someone else told me that too, though would it be easily let slide since it's just a T-pose reference? otherwise it's an easy fix

>>5247724

no, fuck off

>>5250519
based, blogposters must be culled

>>5249639
I think you did a good job, nice use of silhouettes as well

>>5249653

His junk looks like those guys who inject saline. For reference, imagine your character's hand on his junk in that picture. Do the same to yourself. Notice the difference?
As for his eyes, see pic. If you want to keep the upwards slant then ignore the arrows but i lazily added a rough idea of where his eyes should be to not be crosseyed.

>>5250706
People do have naturally girthy, thick cocks. Just because it doesn't apply to you doesn't mean it applies to everyone else.

>>5250774

Not saline injections big.

You're not wanted here nor anywhere else, that's why your server link got deleted from here multiple times. Go away already.

I just want to draw cartoons

What should I do for improve in tooning

>>5250898
>>5250923
I'm curious about this, but I won't indulge in it further. Discords suck for siphoning activity out of a thread anyway. Part of the appeal of imagebaords is that you see great anonymous work.

>>5251009
tl;dr - don't join any is discord links posted here. As stated in the OP there is no /fag/-associated discord servers, and if anyone did join a server posted here, leave immediately.
For too many fucking years have I witness tons of talented drawfags get fucked by some stupid fucking cancerous shitposting autist one way or another (doxing, constant harassment, threats, etc.) especially on /trash/. This thread has been nothing short of amazing since the day it was started a few months back, I'm not gonna watch it or the artists here die the same way like everything else before, everything here is worth fighting for.

>>5250956
it's not bad anon, but you should study expressions and how to convey them properly.

>>5249639
cute! torso looks a biit longer, makes him look short!

>>5250956
nice work anon, if you ask me id say try to stylize some characteristics a bit more, especially the hands and tail on the big lola
what you did with the feet looks good for the cartooning!

>>5251064
nice anon, i like her eyes :)

sorry yall for my little absence, schools been catching up and ive been forgetting to post

>>5251294
aww, gotta love the pink ribbon, it's the little details.

what artist do you guys draw inspirations from?

>>5251419
Way too many to have diametrally contrasting art styles anon

>>5251229
Gonna pick up a mirror and draw expression, will be ugly seen my face for hours tho

>>5250645
>>5251294
hehe thanks
>torso looks a biit longer, makes him look short!
it's a feature! jk I will polish and experiment with his design much more

>>5251953
I see he is finally embracing the femboy lifestyle

>>5251799
or you can study from Disney and Warner cartoons

>>5252336
i seen my shit improve way more with copying other people stuff than grinding IRL stuff

what gives?

>>5252359
you're probably aiming for stylized drawings and therefore finding it more useful to learn thing from artists doing the same.

>>5252359
Master studies have been a key part of artistic growth for centuries, man. But you gotta do both!

trying some sick looking kino pose

>>5250706

>>5248875
In this thread?

Anthro girls are kind of horrifying. Or maybe I can’t draw.

>>5253567

>>5253567
eyes too small and far apart
>>5253568
better, just work on the head shape thats what makes it look weird its bloated

>>5253574
Thanks.

>>5253612
Although I do try to give her a wider face. I guess it usually just comes off weird.

>>5253805
You want to be specially careful with faces, almost 30 to 40 percent of a full body drawing depends on it having an attractive appearance.

>>5252673
I like what you are trying to do here, but the upper looks stiff in comparison

I do not practice nearly enough to git gud.

What should I work on?

>>5253942
Line control
You can keep your style simple, it's the most popular and efficient choice by far. But have clean and varied lines
