finish it nigger
>>6443803

I did this in ~8 hours. Thoughts?
Also, I've been considering to start accepting commissions, but I'm not sure how to go about it.

>>6457632
Do yourself a favor. Stop polishing this turd already and move on to something else.

>>6457674
This looks AI generated.

>>6457548
Still working on it, but this is what I've got for now

>>6457674
I like how you render a lot anon, specially the boobs.

>>6457674
Looks great anon, what fetish would you commission for

>>6457700
I like it but draw the full body

>>6457704
>what fetish would you commission for
NTR

>>6457704
Yep, that's what I'm still working on xd

>>6457548
Does it annoy anyone else when women wanna be all ”ohh daddy I’ve misbehaved” but when you respond with actual incest/ageplay roleplay they freak out

>>6457726
Anon, please find the right board for your creepy sex related questions.

>>6457674
>AI nigger

>mfw i wake up to my image being the OP

>>6457674
Begs that try this hard, but are too stupid to actually succeed are adorable.
>I did this in ~8 hours.
No artist with such line confidence would need that amount of time in order to draw this kek.

>Image has clear AI artifacts you didn'e ven bother fixing

My dear dumb pajeet anon, sit down, you're gonna hurt yourself.

>>6457766
I wonder if one day there'll be a "certified organic" art site that, through a meticulous screening process, only allow the submission of non AI-generated art, only for it to be revealed they sold-out down the line and began just accepting bribes from wealthy AI-backers and post AI art.

>>6457698
>>6457741
>>6457766
I don't know if you're trolling, but it's not AI. Is this the latest meme on /ic/? I haven't been on this board in years.

btw nice ayyy anon

>>6457798
>>6457799
This looks AI.

>>6457783
You have no idea what you're talking about. If it were AI, then edges that were obstructed from view wouldn't line up because AI doesn't understand shape or form. AI works in blobs of random pixels. Getting sections to line up for an AI would be like rolling the same exact number on a set of dice hundreds of times.

>>6457798
Her jorts look kind of diaper-like, should add a rough edge where they've been cut off

>>6457807
You should unironically try drawing a figure without constructing at all just to see how it comes out

>>6457806
Shit, yeah. Like those pocket things. Ah well, for next time. I should work on fabrics and clothing more
>>6457800
You look bald. And smelly

>>6457779
Honestly thinking all the time in AI is exhausting, so being positive and giving feedback is the best option unless its AI obviously.
At least in here.

>>6457779
I aplogize. My paranoia got the better of me.
It's just weird to me that you spent so much time on this, since the style is pretty appealing. I would expect someone at your level to be twice as fast.
Sorry again anon.

>>6457906
>I would expect someone at your level to be twice as fast.
Huh, I thought I was pretty fast. A few years ago, this might've taken me over 40 hours to do. Maybe with more practice I can cut the time down even further.

>>6457779
>puts on tinfoil hat
this could just be traced from AI, you only need to be a decent beg to do this
plus the index finger is so thin as different from the others it looks like trying to cover up for the AI's typical mistakes with hands

if you really want to shut up anons, draw a sketch of this character in a dynamic pose

until then, as long as you keep posting images that an AI could easily do with very typical AI clean up look, anons wont shut up about it

>>6457966
>>6457807
like this anon here
AI couldnt do this shit easily or without good cleanup

>>6457799
even this

everyone who posts a generic anime girl in front view with a generic CG coloring, will be bombarded with accusations of AI

>>6457632
You've gotten fairly thorough critique from multiple anons before and nothing has changed, what exactly are you looking for? Shit or get off the pot, I'm tired of seeing this.

Thoughts on SKEB?
>13% fee

>>6458166
never bothered myself but if you've got a decent pixiv following why not try there too? though if you want more reach I'd just double down on one platform rather than spread yourself thin over two or three. but open up a comm page there, give it a month, report back, nothing to lose then

>>6457674
>>6457779
100% AI and you can't convince me other wise.
The hands are a dead give away

>>6458507
like i said
the dude can just draw a sketch in a non generic pose or without shitty CG rendering but he wont cuz he uses AI then traces over it trying to clean it up but is too much of a beg to hid eit properly

>>6458507
>>6458616
+he was getting no (You)s when he spammed AI work in the previous threads but now we're giving him the attention he wants, let's just ignore it next time please

>>6457632
Dude her ass looks like a fucking dog bone

>>6458622
nah mate, the good (you)'s are the ones where he isnt called out to draw something we ask, even if its a shitty sketch

just ask the shitters to draw a sketch in a dynamic pose and boom, they will go away on their own, but if you ignore them they will keep spamming their bs images

>>6458370

>>6458249
>Portuguese
You have my deepest sympathies.

>>6458249
Hello neighbor

have you drawn today /salt/?

>>6457700
A little more of it, would like some advice about the tights and waist ^^

>>6458741
thighs*

>>6458249
¿pintas sobre toallas?

>>6458291
the sacrum ass crack doesnt make sense looks like the spine keeps going. I would tilt the sacrum higher toward the butt and lower towards the back like in here looks flat.

talking about flat that shade make the ass look flat too, use a second shading on the inner thighs to convey form, think volumetric that ass is asking for some volumetric care.

>>6458507
>LE HANDS
Fuck off, schizo.

>>6458616
>>6458622
Holy shit. Get a room, you faggots.

>>6458741
You got the horns but you forgot the cow ears, man. Also, no bell?

>>6458797
Thanks for the critique
>higher towards ass lower towards back
Like this? I tried to make it steeper. I agree it needs work with coloring too I was going to move on to something else and cut my losses but I might play around with it a bit more

>>6458837
Trueeee man I don't know how I forgot about those. Tomorrow I'll add them and thanks for pointing it out.

>>6458507
Here is the rough sketch. I don't know what else I can do to show you my work. I saw a picture by あいらんど (pixiv.net/u/169968) while looking at Suguha R-18, so it's mostly emulating off of that artist's art style. I thought I'd come to /ic/ to get some advice anonymously. Last time I was here, there was a vocal anti-anime crowd that was trying to push anime art off the board, but that was years ago. It looks like anime art has become more accepted now. However it seems there are still plenty of trolls lurking here that have no interest in critiquing at all. I just wanted to get some advice on R-18 drawings without using a burner account to get it from Reddit or Discord instead, but I guess I'm not gonna find much advice here. Coming to /ic/ was a mistake.

>>6458974
You didn't need to prove shit to some random online anon.

>>6458840
the back arch, seems flatter because that triangle. I think if you imaging the side view it would help to make it more volumetric

>>6458974
Nope, not buying it

>>6458974
dude grow up, you dont owe anyone anything much less explanations or proof to a fkn rando on a stick figure forum.

>>6458993

>>6458991
Get lost, you crabs.

>>6458993
Most of it was just using a basic pen brush and bucket tool to fill in areas. For the highlights, I used white on a layer with blend mode set to Add (Glow) while using the airbrush, watercolor, and pencil tools. I also used the blend, blur, and finger tools to tidy it up. It helps to have some references as a style guide.

>>6459009
Consider leaving /ic/ for your own sake. Anyone capable of producing art past a certain level becomes a target of crabs on this board. Artists have been harassed and doxxed on numerous occasions. Grab the resources and go.

>>6459017
Aritist have been doxxed?scary

>>6458741
Thighs are mostly fine but that arm looks like it’s glued to the side of her torso and doesn’t look like she’s doing anything except hiding the stump of a wrist.
Also her shoulders are uneven, one looks wider than the other. Try exposing it instead of tucking that arm under her breasts.

>>6459259
OK, will change it
Thanks a lot for the critique ^^

>>6459324
You’re welcome! You got this, anon.

Anyway, still working on the rendering but some critique would be appreciated!

>>6459345
I'm no expert, but I would change the position of one the breasts to center it a little more

>>6459369
Hm, good eye. Thanks, anon!

>>6459345
sorry for the shitty mspaint redline, but i'd say that the problem is that you bent the ribcage like crazy. The blue line represents the sternum, it should be more or less straight

>>6459374
Thanks for the tip, anon. Much appreciated!

>>6457811
i usually construct as i go rather than fully constructing a pose and building it up, but i'll try to remember that as a challenge for my next warm up

>>6458974
this is literally a shitty trace to pass off as a "sketch"
again, you arent drawing anything different lmao
get fucked AI beglet pajeet

>>6458974
>pixiv.net/u/169968
that's a popular prompt name you idiot if you're gonna try one of those long-term trolls at least put more effort for fuck sake, that sketch is literally the linework as it is, no planning or construction, you'll fool the absolute begs and that's about it. I get it, you want to turn around in the long run and say "nyeeeh you see, you /salt/fags couldn't even tell the AI from the real stuff see? i'm the real artist here, see? AI really is indistinguishable from real art, see? you were all fooled haha that was a good waste of everyone's time!" like that fucking idiot who traced a photo of a woman on the john badly and then made a big woop about how the fix wasn't the exact photo he badly traced.
one day AI art really will blend in flawlessly but not when you left in those pointless lines around the crease of the elbow or the belly. try it again next month we'll have forgotten about it and you can gun for your anime villain victory again

Gesturefag here who drew the Komi from last thread.
I decided to do a study on my favorite artist, and one main thing I noticed and haven't been able to replicate is how "consistent" he is with ink thickness when doing certain areas.


I used >Krita's, Basic size / pressure pen, and my weights are so far off his.
After finishing my study I can only assume he is using a pen with no line weight? And changing it depending on what area he's working on? IE see the hair fringe vs the overall contour vs the hand thickness.
Is this the correct assumption?


I would gladly appreciate the input from anyone with a more trained eye then this 3 month beg, that was the "main" crucial thing I noticed that I know I'm not doing currently.

>>6459421
Fuck, that is awful.

>>6459421

Please learn how to draw appealing heads and faces.

>>6457674
>I did this in ~8 hours. Thoughts?
you've put way more than that into your mad prompting skills, pajeet

>>6459586
how many times are you going to samefag reply to the same guy

Haven’t been able to make much progress, but its getting there? I gotta sharpen up my shadows/shapes and shit. Blargh, paintings tough

>I decided to do a study on my favorite artist, and one main thing I noticed and haven't been able to replicate is how "consistent" he is with ink thickness when doing certain areas.
Newsflash, experience and mileage help you be consistent.
You don't fucking say.
omegakek

>>6459528
The tapered strokes in the clothing creases make me think he's using pressure for size
There's a hotkey to enable/disable it in photoshop but even without that you can keep the line weight consistent if your pressure control is good enough.
Also, I don't think it's uncommon to go back and fine tune line weight throughout after the initial drawing, using restating/vector tools/etc. IIRC DAB tells you to do something like this for thickening the outer boundaries. What you see might be multiple passes.

>>6459635
>Also, I don't think it's uncommon to go back and fine tune line weight throughout after the initial drawing, using restating/vector tools/etc
this and also erasing back linework to thin certain parts out

>>6459528
nice, play with the brush settings try reducing the flow of the ink-3 gpen to 34%. on preassure control I think a S curve is the best in responsiveness vs dynamic range ( ink-3 gpen already has a nice s curve on size pressure). another thing to consider is hardware e.g. wacom pro pen 2 is way more dynamic range than say wacom 4k pen this allows to control better the line weight (this is the main reason people say pro nibs are eaten away faster). and the most important experience are you sure there are no double passes or erasing on the og?

>>6459635
Thanks anon I really appreciate the insight, I've never used any extra tools like restarting / vector like you've mentioned (haven't' heard of them until your post), I will look for a hotkey and if there isn't perhaps I'll try increasing my setting for pen pressure along with using a brush that only has pressure for size,

>>6459643
if hes drawing multiple lines and erasing that is something I will have to learn, at the moment I can't eye discern that even after recreating the line art

>>6459652
I will try your exact suggested settings, I'm using a wacom pro pen 2 (with stock nib) but I've changed none of the settings apart from the initial calibration. I cannot tell if he's double passing or erasing as unfortunately hes never uploaded a PSD, rarely he posts the very rough construction, sometimes he's even uploaded his works as JPGs, so this standing with grey scale version came from just running a krita filter

>>6457548

>>6459727
Looks like straight fucking garbage, anon. You have a poorly drawn baby face on top of a disgusting pig body which clashes with each other and the fact you don't even bother to clean up the eraser marks. I wouldn't even scrape this with AI

>>6459737

>>6459727
anon theres an AI troll in the thread who samefag replied to the 1 post 6 times over.
Your work is fine but I dont like that you've given her a midget spine, give a normal tall spine and itd look nice

>>6459753
Learn to recognize shitposting. Just ignore him.

>>6459727
nice overlapping forms, really shapely and cute faces. do you scan these and then work digitally?

>>6459727
This has the potential to be good. But the hand on the far left looks overdone. And the face on the top has a bad chin, not a female face. The back view body seems pretty good. But the front view body looks not human. Like it's in-between a human and a shortstack and it throws me off. Some if the close ups seems a bit untastefull but that could be because of the eraser marks probably. If you export this to digital it should improve.

>>6459757
>given her a midget spine, give a normal tall spine and itd look nice
Yeah, you're not wrong. I'll watch out for that next time.

>>6459767
Thanks. No I use pencil.

>>6459748
Anon. I'm masturbating to your image of A.I Jesus... How does that make you feel?

>>6459778
Here's an example of my art you can actually fap to

>>6459788
aichuds... I don't feel so good

>>6459703
ok then we can rule hardware sensitivity out (remember its not really important it only matters on how you set up your tools).
Then I suggest to play around with technics, leave that alone and practice a little of contour lines, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97-LDiSaam4 after some practice come back to the gyaru and redo her.
A tip for overlapping lines, create a tmp layer now use big (huge) gesture for the new line, erase until both lines seamless join together (no bumps) then merge down. and the bigger the canvas the better.

drew today with help of reference done within 1.5hrs, do critique the art if you can

>>6457674
>>6457779
>>6458974
8 hours? I would do that in 2-3 and after reading other of your posts i'm sure that you cheated in one way or another. Pic is cute tho.
You will feel regret working like that, practice your drawing skills cuz you clearly got some and be honest for yourself. You will avoid lot of problems and mental breakdowns.

>>6459900
head arms way too small for that torso, tip arms always should be long enough to cover privates easily

>>6459788
>Here's an example of my prompts
Here, fixed that for you. I wouldn't want you to get too cocky about your status among real artists.

>>6459900
>>6459934
thank you for the tip anon, I did have a hard time with the right arm, did some final adjustments to the arm and centered the right thigh little bit

>>6460018
Anon, I think that the head is too small for that body

>>6458741
I think I'm gonna live it like this.
Thoughts?

>>6460018
face is under rendered compared to the body, causing it to look flat.

Do you feel aroused by your own art?

>>6459421
Jesus man you really backslid with this one. Back to the saran wrapped bodies cockroach torsos and the nightmare faces. You can do better.

>>6459727
looks good and I actually kind of like the stocky torso

It's been a while since I posted anything here. Hey

>>6460312
Have this one too for good measure.

>>6459748
The AI prompters are flooding this general now. Time to abort.

im trying to imitate alex achad for whenever i draw skugs

>>6460298
My rule is
If I'm not aroused by my own art, I do not post it.

>>6460298
Fuck no maybe years later after I forgot that I made it. But otherwise staring at the same pixels for hours on end kills it for me

>>6459613
I'd add a more clear light direction, maybe something like this? otherwise, cool stuff
based it on the eye highlight

>>6460408
A huge part of his style is oversized hands and feet. Fucking draw them and stop being a coward.

>>6460301
ok hold on, this is just the sketch here. not all of those muscle placement lines are going to be there in the end product, i'm trying to ingrain the habit of just doing the termination points for the muscles but i still draw them in for the sketch stage

>>6460672
Try opacity on pressure. Or study a digital line compared to a soft line. Your line art is great overall. But with porn it's different.

>>6459748
ngl thats a pretty epic AI jesus

>>6459809
thanks anon this is very detailed, I will do so and see how it goes

I spent too much time on this

>>6460672
Aah, I know you! You draw porn for years now! I often find your drawings in rule34, furaffinty and sometimes in imhentai.

>>6461034
I don't get furries so I know nothing about fur... but...
1 where is the light coming? this looks like mesh animaiton so I thinkg it would be nice if you had some kind of shadow (soften transparency) on the paddle column.
2. if its mesh cut out animation and if there is friction between paddle and buttocks you can add some wobble on the butt line to convey this
3. the breathing cycle is nice but I dont like the interpolation change your function. use the stopwatch method to better time your cycles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSHtt624Wjg
5. in the future check apps like dain app and ebsynth animation is costly so anything we can use to better our workflow is welcome.

>>6461069
>Mesh animation
What do you mean by mesh animation? This is pixel animation done with Aesprite. It's 10 frames, so not very long and doesn't include many in-betweens. Thanks for the feedback! I hadn't heard of those apps until now

>>6461075
oh sorry maybe is the same principle but different name I don't use any pixel art oriented software. It may have different names cut-out, mesh, bone, etc animation.

If I'm correct the benefit of pixel art focus apps is to create a spritesheet or export them to your game engine. if you want to animated it maybe (emphasis on maybe) easier to get use an animation first software (opentoonz, live2d, adobe, krita/csp???). your work looks simple but I first hand now how tedious it is if this is your first work well, kudos you are doing great!

>>6461091
Yeah Aesprite is a simple program that uses frames to animate. It's very tedious and low res but quicker for me to get color onto pieces that I want to move. This definitely wasn't intended to be a sprite sheet though since it's artwork and not at all functional. It's one of three scenes, the second'll include the smack and the butt jiggle you mentioned and then the third is his reaction.

I haven't worked much with opentoonz but have heard good things. Generally I animate in Photoshop (outside of pixel animations) but am looking to update my workflow soon.

Also trying to update my style but it might just be permanently oldschool

>>6461098
if you are comfortable on PS stay there. Check out cut out/mesh animation it may be on interest.

>>6460672
I know you didn't ask but your art is actually really good imo. One tiny critique if you limit the lines drawn on the body it would look so much better. Use as few as possible to suggest the muscle tone otherwise it's too much, but good job

>>6459900
>>6460018
well, made another one today made the rendering to minimum, please do critique it

>>6462673
Thanks, i did a lot of gesture drawing and practiced constructing forms in boxes. For gesture Vilpu helps alot, for constructing forms i mainly follow Morpho Sim and some other artists. I dont really follow any turoial, but i find Proko serie on anatomy helps me alot at the beginning

>Prompting skills
I consider myself to be a "prompt Smith" but most drawslaves can't understand that.

How do I short stack proportions

>>6463196
what book do i read to draw figures like this

>>6462895
I love the light effect on her thighs, who you do it?

It’s something…

Tani's new shirt

>>6463410
Aim for 3-4 heads tall
Head should be roughly size of the rib cage, thigh, calf, etc etc. There is general proportional similarity when it comes to body parts. You can sell shortness by enlarging the head, just made sure the facial features arent enlarged TOO enlarged or itll look chibi and very young. accentuate hips and boobs accordingly. Squish proportions as well. You can also sell shortness by incorporating size difference, like a normal human size male or a human sized door or something like that

Best bet is find ref you like and redline trace the proportions so its easier to digest, and copy them for your work

>>6463196
This is great stuff.

work on faces

Took a while but I redid most of the drawing since my last iteration had a fucked up spine.

>>6464566
I like the face though, what's wrong with it?

She doesn't really look like she's holding the penis. Grab a paper towel tube or something and take some reference photos of your hand.

>>6463947
easily my favorite. it's bright, colorful, and cute. good work

>>6464599
Not very good with hands grasping objects but I tried. What do you think?

>>6464742
Wow, that’s really nice!

>>6464775
>>6464585

this is a hard one because all depends on you, whats the story, if she is disgusted and reluctant to perform the act then stiffness is good, otherwise the posture is way to stiff an not sexy.

About the pose I think a little more flexion on the toes would be nice. the pose looks of balance maybe the right hand or forearm resting on the whatever is the other subject body...

think in the storytelling

>>6460501
oh wow this helps a lot! I usually only do linework and less value orientated art. Picking up painting to improve my repertoire, so super clear and strong values are still a little tough for me. Thanks!

Thank you very much to the anons who responded to my study of >>6459528
I feel my growth is going up so fast ever since I started frequenting here.

I do not think the extent of the replies is all of his lineart techniques, but it was an excellent start and got me so close to the original

Especially huge love to the anon who linked the video on contour lines (I watched the whole thing) and suggested his pen weights, I do wish however the pen would not use grey when the line is very thin as it hampers and forces contour lining, regardless I was completely unaware of that concept and that is something I will continue to improve on.

>I do wish however the pen would not use grey when the line is very thin as it hampers and forces contour lining
play with the settings, now you have a little grasp of what opacity, flow, etc does you can go read the documentation of krita for brush dont expend too much time on it, just enough to have fun around. try basic-5 brushe it should have enough flow for what you want.

another thing you can do while having all your lineart in a separate group, create a new layer on top, alpha lock it and paint over the parts you would like darker.

look closer at your drapery, look that their is more variation in the line weight in the og, also there are more broken lines, it gives a more loose feeling.

>>6464919
the pose looks out of balance*

>>6464986
>another thing you can do while having all your lineart in a separate group, create a new layer on top, alpha lock it and paint over the parts you would like darker.
do you mean grouping all my line arts, having an extra layer on top of the group with pass through and alpha lock and then painting away?

thank you very much anon I will try that and the brush suggestion

>>6464996
>do you mean grouping all my line arts, having an extra layer on top of the group
yes
-lineart group
--eraser (eraser blending mode)
--darkener (alpha lock x)
--line3
--line2
--line1

then use the darkener layer to change color of the lines, also for experimenting you can also create a layer on top called eraser and now you can erase non destructively to test any crazy idea you have.

for this ideas to work, they have to belong to the same group

>>6465007
this is great anon I will try this setup

I think i might try and finish this but also redo it with different/more colours

>>6465043
Damn I even edited it to roate and it went back

Thanks, anon! I appreciate the input!

a piece i'm working on

>>6465125
pyw

I got a comm and he wants me to draw his character giving a “before and after” blowjob and gave me some refs. I’ve never done nsfw so this is out of my wheelhouse, not to mention my style doesn’t really lend itself to nsfw stuff. How do I make this sexier?

>>6465125
Good! Fapping rots your brain. Coomers deserve death by goat rape.

>>6466188
I regret my advice kek, the f is that anon?

>>6466194
Well, the girl is about to go to town on this bug’s dick.

>>6466206
Oh I thought she was pulling a chocolate banana out of her duffle

>>6466257
>chocolate banana
>didn’t think it was a penis
Goddamnit

>>6466188
christ all fucking mighty I beg we start a salt thread for /d/ shit what the fucking hell is that man, I don't wanna post in the same general as this anymore

>>6466443
pyw

>>6466443
What’s /d/?

>>6466070

The character looks bored, doesn't seem to be into the blowjob whatsoever. They're just there as a prop. Imo I think having them lean in more towards the penis and the viewer would help with this. Also pushing some kind of contrapposto with the head/shoulders. It's lacking gesture.

Penis has no detail. I would suggest looking up nsfw artists who draw penises you like and try to emulate their style. Noill has a very simple artstyle but I think the way he draws penises is appealing. (see picrel) As it is, the way yours is drawn is flat and I would highly suggest not connecting the head with a thick lines. A good rule of thumb for drawing appealing genitals is to avoiding connecting features with solid lines.

The character doesn't look at all disheveled. Add some sweat, some drool dripping onto their shirt. Make it sloppy. Mess up their hair. This is too clean.

>>6466558
no not in the same thread as that abomination (i'm talking about the subject matter let's not get too pissy here nor let's pretend that's what we wanna see opening up the thread fucking HELL)
>>6466563
>>>/d/ (Hentai/Alternative)

>>6466683
im not the poster of that work, but does such work really cause a reaction in you anon? Its a pretty tame image

>>6466686
not him, not mad is tame, but I think it wasnt expected. I was expecting a dog at worst but not bug men.

>>6466686
it does yeah it's gross and uncanny. I'm aware I am overreacting a bit especially when I can just hide it and move on but when that kinda shit gets posted out of the blue in a thread that is otherwise pretty "vanilla" (for nsfw standards) it just looks out of place.
I don't wanna keep crying about it and to even though it looks amateurish in places (the rendering, the nipples, the feet) the face is really cute and some parts are quite interesting, like the hair looks to have some volume and the hands do look 'off' but at least they tried to make them look dynamic

Ok, this time I would like some input on this one:
As you can see, this is set in a cassino theme and I would like some ideas in regards to what kind of color combinations I should use for the character, which should be limited to black, grey, white, green and red.
Why don't I just color it on the computer you might ask? Well, I don't have a lot of time to color digitally, so I'm using pencils instead.
I also want to make other drawings following this theme, like one inspired from a blackjack table, a dice table and slot machines.

Trying my hand at better lighting. Gift for a loved one. Any advice on the anatomy and lighting?

>>6466686
>>6466689
>>6466724
I posted that but thanks for the input guys. Sorry if it came across as too much but I’ll be more mindful of what I post up again next time. I’m honestly not good and I’m trying my best to keep learning so all critiques are appreciated.

The best drawing I've ever made with digital. Might polish it as much as I can tomorrow.

Does this look ok? I think the proportions need to be tweaked. Her hands and feet are meant to be tiny, that’s a stylistic choice but I’m not sure if the rest looks ok. The pose is meant to be a top down view of her laying on something

>>6467774
those midget cankles

>>6467741
I like it anon, finish the piece

>>6466887
replace nose and feet, looks uncanny

>>6458629
Ass? I thought that was a huge fucking ribbon

>>6467022
The composition is intimate but the person approaching looks more creepy than probably intended. Almost like a titan crouching down to grab someone and I'm not sure what could be done to fix that.
Maybe a warmer, more fond expression? maybe the posture is too rigid?

>>6466887
If you already know what colors you want to use what are you asking about exactly?

Here's a Chel picture I have been working on and am hoping to colour. Trying to practice working faster (with mixed results).

>>6467825
mmmm puffy butthole activates my neurons

>>6467820
I wanted to hear suggestions on what colors and patterns I could use on her.

i want to draw NSFW so i can get commissions from pervs, but i'm bashful so i am starting with big boob girls. am i on the right path?

>>6468838
Yes, you could easily get comms at this stage. Can you draw them in other positions?

>>6468858
Still at a stage where I need references for tricky perspectives and unusual poses, but I'm confident enough. I'll be ballsier with my posing next time and see how it goes.

>>6468179
>>6468424
hard truths anons but i can't deny you're right

Tried to fix the canks. Anything else stand out? Sorry about the gore

>>6469392
the bikini top doesn't make much sense, it needs to look more snug. a bandeau top like that doesn't have straps to keep it secure so it has to be tight, it should be kinda squeezing the boobs.

also breasts kinda sag out and to the sides when a woman is on her back, the boobs in the picture look to be sagging down like they do when a woman is standing up.

>>6469410
Awesome thanks for the help

>>6468838
Nice I like it, I fixed your work btw.

>>6469519
go away

>>6468838
It's amazing how AI is like a factory where all distinctive character, originality and charm is removed and replaced with totally generic anime blandness.

The absolute state of tech Pajeets.

>>6469519
drawing hands is the modern Voight-Kampff test

>>6469555
I like how it copied everything about the pose except the hands which it fucked up.

>>6469562
there's a line from the novel 'red seas under red skies' where an art expert is telling the 2 main characters that the art they stole is too perfect and therefore forgeries because the painters of the time did this weird brushstroke in the lower left corner of all their paintings as a kind of artistic signature, and i have to think of the AI hand fuckups as that, like a built in signature into the system that lets you know what made the art

Does anyone have reference for feet in this angle? Or give me a redline? I'm so stuck with the toes.

>>6469519
AI can't draw tummies OR hands I guess.

Muh AI reeeeee.
I will admit the NAI/anything model is limited.

>>6469936

Why has this dumb AI nigger not been banned yet? Do we have fucking jannies? Hello?

>>6469946
Since when is AI art against /ic/ rules?
If anything /g/ is not the place for AI art.

>>6463947
I like this a lot

>>6469936
>>6469937
learn to use masks, to make collages and composition. This is beg AI level.

>>6469973
Rule 1: All images and discussion should pertain to the critique of visual artwork.

Rule 2: User-created artwork is submitted for critique, and visual art is discussed. Do not claim authorship of works you did not create.

Rule 3:Only constructive criticism will be accepted. Rude or offensive comments will result in a ban.

AI is a fail on these three. It isn't art, it isn't user-created and it isn't posted constructively or in good faith.

>>6469392
I'm a beg but maybe something like this? I'd simplify my lines a bit too

>>6470197
>Rule 1: All images and discussion should pertain to the critique of visual artwork.
it is indeed a visual artwork
>Rule 2: User-created artwork is submitted for critique, and visual art is discussed. Do not claim authorship of works you did not create.
The image wouldn't exist without the input of the user
>Rule 3:Only constructive criticism will be accepted. Rude or offensive comments will result in a ban.
Depends on the person posting

>>6470235
even if you're right, it is off-topic to post AI in non AI art threads when you can go on /g/ and post there instead. same reason why furry porn is banned, there's a board for it

>>6470236
Well this thread clearly doesn't mention anything about AI, and it isn't lolicon/furry in huge majority of cases, which is explicitly banned iirc

>>6469810
?

>>6467820
Ooh okay, I'm not sure either. I have finished this one and sent it so I'll just take your advice for future pieces. I'm not sure how to fix it either. I was referencing a face from a game, instead of a real person's expression. So that might be part of it.

>>6468838
Why are you bashful about it? Are you under 18? In that case don't make 18+ content..

>>6470233
Well you're infinitely less beg than me. That looks great thanks

>>6469973
I think there should be a new board for AI art. It doesn't belong in art critique, is kind of weird showing up in yaoi, hentai and yuri boards, but i still feel like it has its own place. I use midjourney to help me with compositions. So i don't hate AI art. But i think it does need its own space.

>>6468783
What do you want us to critique about it?

>>6470260
just bashful because i'm a virgin and a prude, i'm plenty old

>>6468495
yes, thank you

>>6470239
the OP is copy and pasted from years ago, I'm not sure if eventually we'll add it to all generals but I think the general consensus is, sure, people want to make and share AI art, but it can be contained in its own thread and not used in bad faith by using it to "fix" someone's hand-drawn work. so far there's only been AI generals approved in /g/ so I assume it goes there. meta AI threads are all over /ic/ and I hope those get reduced to 1 at a time at least but that's part of the fact that it's still a novel thing

>>6466887
>>6468208
>>6468529
>>6468783
are you a furry?

Another one. Tried to make the expressions more "Loving" as advised. How'd I do for for this one?

>>6469392
What is happening? Like seriously, no offense. I can tell she is a giant, and she is crushing someone ( in a sexy way ) but if she hanging off of something? Is she laying down? What is she laying down on? I'd be more interested if there was more going on to tell the story in this piece rather than the anatomy for this one

>>6470353
if it is an anthro of an object instead of an animal, does that even count?

>>6470370
None taken. She’s on the deck of an aircraft carrier, laying on her back. My friends doing a story and asked if I could make some art for it. I’m gonna redo the face and a bunch of other stuff though I hate the way it looks now that I’ve had a few days to see everything wrong it it

>>6470233
I’m curious what kind of practice did you do to get this far? You’re basically where I want to be in the next 6-8 months

>>6470353
Me? I just felt like drawing characters colored according to a certain theme, but I also enjoy drawing furries now and then.

>>6460312
>>6460313
>>6467825
>>6468087
>>6470367
you guys have sex appeal good work :)

>>6470270
I feel I'm having some difficulty in drawing the character's hips, especially when it comes to leg joints.

>>6470353
Me? I don't believe so, I just enjoy drawing colorful characters.

>>6460312
missed you ;_; fellow yaoi artist

>>6470408
I would not have gathered that this was an aircraft carrier. Maybe some slight perspective and studying what military aircraft carriers look like from above would help. It is best when your art can tell the story of what is happening rather than the description of it. Maybe like adding a few airplanes, some water below, maybe some pilot dudes running away in fear and some buildings to show that it is being lived on.

>>6470456
Thanks ! ;W;

>>6470235
Stop defending botslop. Actual artists want places where they can discuss actual art without zero effort, zero skill, obnoxious AI images shitting the place up.

>>6470499
Yeah the bg hasn’t even been started yet. That jagged shape is just the deck outline

I got sucked into rendering this and then I suddenly realized it looks like shit because the rendering doesn't match the linework
I guess I need to find a nice colored pencil brush or something so it can mesh better, or switch from pencil to g-pen for the linework

>>6470580
>>6470235

Exactly. Look, The whole Ai art movement is fascinating and all, but the type of skill that goes into ai and drawing with your hands is not the same type of skill.

It's kinda like showing up to a knitting club and trying to get someone to give you advice on how to fix your sewing machine. Sure, maybe someone could help, but it's a knitting club, not a sewing club.

In this case, this is a drawing thread, not a ai training thread. We don't post things here for attention, we're on ic, not hentai. We want help on how to draw, not how to type.

I hope that makes sense.

>>6470688
Looks nice but I bet you could go even more daring with the composition. Her boobs being the only thing shaded kinda makes her look sweaty btw. But at the same time, it looks kinda nice so idk what I'd suggest to do.

>>6470743
I'm definitely okay with sweaty but I'm probably just gonna redo the render from scratch if I continue fucking with it at all

>>6468783
I wish i could give advice but i don't really know what she is supposed to be

>>6470753
I just consider them beings that look A LOT like humans but with different skin colors, similar to Black Elves.

>>6468408
You could push the shortstack proportions even further.

>>6468087
Pretty solid. I wouldn't overwork this one too much.

>>6467825
I like how the face and genitals shine it really brings your attention to the two areas. Great composition.

>>6465875
Keep on going, but i recommend you try drawing more than to draw higher quality. You look as though you're at a stage in at where you need to draw every day target than care about the quality so much.

>>6470742
One person has been hell bent on bringing attention to AI posts in here. you're better off just ignoring it until they leave/get banned.

>>6470461
I'd say it's worth it to try some construction for the hips so they follow perspective. I'm dogshit at perspective myself but I can attempt a redline maybe???

>>6470367
Hey these are really nice expressions, do you have a site or anything?

>>6470688
Nice hands, and your rendering looks fine anon. Keep going. Render her suit a bit and you'll be set. Personally I enjoy the texture of your linework. The drawback of g pen is sometimes it can look TOO sterile imo

>>6465169
I can tell you are drawing something that is catered toward yourself and your own pleasures, maybe some sort of objectophilia. I think that's a great start for finding enjoyment in drawing hentai. However, I kinda find it unsettling that they look like muppets.

>>6463495
Is this drawn from imagination? try to do some head studies from that angle--
1:
the neck is bending oddly.
the chin is to small, especially if he has a beard.
ears are a tad too big. He has no skull behind his ears and it looks creepy.
2:
neck too long in the bottom picture.
the dick is twisting unnaturally. the veins on the top are being twisted to the side in a strange way.
ears lack any sort of accuracy..
the top and back of the man's skull is too small.

eyes are ok. but please work on your side profile anatomy!

>>6470765

I'd give my Twitter, but I rarely post art ever. I'm a student right now working in computer science so I don't have much time to draw nowadays. If you're still interested I'll send it but you'll have to dig into my media tab pretty far!

>>6470765

Posting AI in non ai thread is participating or instigating a flamewar by nature. Also drama/community vendetta in some cases

>10 second joke I thought up is turning in a 4-5 hour painting
haha fuck

>>6470771
Fuck it, that's alright. I'll see it when I see it. Gimme

>>6470773
Uhhh It's a mishmash of artists I like. I take little pieces from their style I personally found aesthetically pleasing though I admit my work tends to lean more heavily toward an artist if I've been especially tuned into their work at the moment. Also if a particular head angle is giving you trouble, USE A REFERENCE.

>>6468783
Uhhh sorry about the chicken scratch, but here's a redline attempt

>>6464675
>>6469981
I love you guys.

Might as well post this here too I guess.

>>6470824
Don't act so embarrassed. Just embrace it. I like this a lot. The colors work wonderfully together, and I love the expression here.

However, the dick looks super off. The dickhead looks like a doorknob because of the shading. It no longer looks like a dickhead, because of the shading on the underside, it looks like the flushed reddish part of the corona extends down to the shaft and now it looks like his cock is shaped like a nipple.

>>6470821
also "not poster's own artwork" or "trolling outside /b/"

Is there any good videos about drawing appealing looking faces?

I dropped this piece in focus of just practicing copying faces from Terasu as I couldn't improve the face to where I was happy with it

>>6470766
Yes, your right, although the "Philia" is more directed to the character's color instead of it being an object, and your also right in regards to the uncanny muppet feature, I spend so much time "artistically isolated that I forget some things might not appeal to the wider audience. It was a design choice I made in order for the characters to not simply look like humans with body paint, to be their own thing, like any other anthro character, but I guess I fell into another hole while trying to evade the first one.

>>6470836
Thank you VERY MUCH annon for taking the time in helping me with the anatomy! Will save this one for studies!

>>6471537
how do you get the noise on the highlights?
solely by brush or overlaying a pattern?

Really like your work man I'm using your older posts to better my draftsmanship.

>>6470766
Thanks anon! Yeah I mostly do these from imagination. It's a sort of approach between the Vilppu method, exaggerating expressions and trying to not rely strongly on lines.

Unfortunately I do have a bit of trouble with anatomy/portraits and making stuff on-model. I'll look for some refs of angled heads and profiles. I downloaded the Renaissance head drawing course so maybe it helps a little with compositions like these?

I like to use imagination because you have more freedom in staging than with just using references, but I do need a lot more practice in fundies.

been working on this for like a month now, can't decide on how to compose this, I want to make it sort of like one of those sequential panels where there's a bit of a story, but I have 0 experience with those. like not sure how I'll frame it, if I'll need dialogue, if I should include Lloyd's face in it as a pop up etc
any recs or general crits appreciated too

Yeah,it's just a brush on "add glow" mode, nothing fancy!
>Really like your work man I'm using your older posts to better my draftsmanship.

yeah one month is too long. You need to be able to tell if it's not going to work or not and ditch it. You definitely need to read more comics, good comics. I recommend Hayo_cinema.
Right now this sequence is pretty off, because she's wearing a dress in the first two but the 3rd one comes up too abruptly and she's already naked with her tits being fondled. Then the earring show up on the 2nd one? and it seems like her skirt gets longer too. Is she supposed to be getting drunk and taken advantage off? is so, she should be visibly drunk on the 2nd one
then there's the composition and shape balance, which is broken by having the 3rd pose in a different angle and facing the other way. Not that there's anything wrong with using different angles in such stuff(picrel) but the issue here is that you created a pattern with the first two poses, so our brains( that love patterns) see the 3rd pose as being "off", thus breaking the sequence.

Here's the 'redline' i promised with process pics. Keep in mind im still a beg. Also look at ur own cock or dick pics for reference it doesn't make you gay.

I appreciate the breakdown jiranon, I've noted your points and recs down. She's meant to be getting drunk and flirting/teasing the viewer. You're right about how it doesn't flow, I think I'll re-use the grope pose for something else and just finish the two first poses for individual pieces, I'm not ready for this sequential stuff yet.
