/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

morpho

Just copy all of Bridgman 2 times.
These threads are pointless; it's clear none of you have done it.

Gonna outline this now.
Don't fuck up, don't fuck up, dont

>>6636322
Uh, thanks op
I really feel like it doesn't deserve the op, I kinda rushed it

>>6636374

I don't like lesbians, but this uff makes me horny, I hope you don't screw up with the color

based and /thread/

Worker's day practice

>>6636395
going well, try to practice full body poses

>>6636329
Maybe they're amateurish and other bad big pro words, but I do really like your drawings.
If anything, they feel a bit incomplete, maybe try to use a color or something to make them pop a bit
>>6636395
Don't know if the lines are kind of wobbly because it's practice or you're still working on them but I'd say you're on the right track. There's some minor anatomy and perspective mistakes but it's not something someone fondling the wet tip of his dick looking at your booba is going to call you out for. Also they're going to disappear at some point with pratice
Very good anon
Next time do a bigger bush tho/10

>>6636378
Bring those eyes closer.

>>6636418
I used this as a reference for the blue one. I am honestly not skilled enough to question if this
(I do know that the anatomy is a little too long, though)

>>6636395
>Skulls
Yass

>>6636425
Oyari's faces are always fucked up. Study someone else if you're beg.

>>6636460
Excuse me, anon. You drew a Pepe without nostrils and improper perspective. I recommend copy Bridgman 2x because the other guy said so.

>>6636425
>>6636378
lol
just another brown mongrel coom tracer 'artist'
facepalm

>>6636477
Does that look traced to you?

>>6636477
>spic getting into coom art for whitey bucks
Many such cases!

>>6636374

>>6635340
Nta, but if you are conflicted about what gesture is and how to do it, why don't you look at the Force guy? He marries the concept of shape and line of action that you seem to be confused to do his own thing with gesture(he calls it force, but it's gesture)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJwiYwPSK_o

why is the rendering on the faceplate so muddy? how can i fix it?

>>6636508
u could probably add a grain texture or speckles of dark to emulate the scuffs in the helmet

>>6636508
Don't know if it's the actual correct way, but I would add blots of first lighter grey and then white on another layer with a medium opacity, medium hardness normal brush, and then smear them into the shape I want with a bristly smudge tool, low opacity and low size

>>6636460

>>6636416
I just dont know what makes them feel incomplete, I am purposefully trying to use as much negative space as possible. Maybe it's an unavoidable feeling when trying to use negative space and abstract shapes this much. I've tried color in the past but I'm complete dogshit at color and prefer black and white

>>6636508
Not a painter here, so take it with a grain of salt.
Your study gives off the airbrush look, you know, the look that everything is blended together, and the reference seems to have richer darks and lights than yours.

>>6636514
so true

why the fuck is my iPad so much harder to draw on than my screenless tablet I can’t draw anything and it not be crooked and slippery aaaaaa

>>6636524
Holy jesus fuck Shinji what the hell happened to you

>>6636517
I kinda suck with color too but let me suggest an experiment: do one of these regularly, then try using a background with some faint texture (or do it yourself fucking around with brushes) and add a simple layer mask color filled level, same with the drawing. Then try fiddling with layer styles and see if something decent comes up
All with super low saturation colors, like a super muted yellow for the back and a barely visible blue for the drawing

>>6636487
(you)

>>6636322
I know the anatomy on the body is fucked but I wanted to achieve a more fluid like work. I have been doing drawabox exercises and I really like the fluidity it teaches.

>>6636517
Good idea, execution needs work. It's too soft and unreadable. Try upping the contrast just a hair?
I did this with my phone app.

>>6636536
I've done textured backgrounds with off-white colors before like picrel and I do like how it comes out but theres something about the muted low saturation/high negative space style that I'm trying to move into

>>6636554
>>6636546
for an example this is a recent one where i started trying lower contrast and more whitespace compared with the above

>>6636557
The version you posted first is better. I think it looks really good like this. I feel like Rick Rubin, I'm taking other people's hard work and tweaking it.

>>6636546
I'll say I do like how this looks, has a kinda oldschool flash photography look to it so I'll consider this if I dont like what I'm trying now

>>6636561
Try it with a sepia background?

I didn't draw at all today.

>>6636569
I went to bed early and woke up early
All I did was 1/3rd of a sketch

bunch of junk

>>6636588
That's not junk my bud. You have solid skills right there.

>>6636569
Neither did I. But I hit my head early in the morning so I'm giving myself a pass. Road guy dropped the trailer too high and the crank was loose so I launched myself into the drive tires trying to lower it.
It sucks too, because I would have had probably the hours on the clock to draw, but I couldn't think clearly so I just retail therapy bought some pens off Amazon and went for a walk instead.
I hope my head clears up by tomorrow. I got some good subjects I want to draw.

>>6636487
Based

>>6636495
FACK EM UP CISTER!!

>>6636588
omg its runescape man

>>6636604
dude, you should see a doctor in case you got a concussion. Being slammed by a heavy metal object could kill you

>>6636627
You should actually construct your figures. You're just drawing outlines. I know you feel like you're constructing, but you aren't. Explicity use cylinders, boxes, and spheres, when you're first learning to construct. There's no shame in mannequinization

>>6636684
I am genuinely confused, because I drew the cylinders for legs, "underwear" shape for the hips, and rounded box for the ribcage area before putting the outline around them. I don't know what construction is if not that.

>>6636705
make it more explicit. Actually do box men and cylinders, as if you were doing robots. It's important to go through these steps, when you're learning. idk, it's just a suggestion, you don't have to do it, but I recommend it

>>6636705
I'm drunk but these are roughly the shapes I use, before trying to add a bit of anatomy.

>>6636627
>>6636705
okay, I'm sorry. I'm fucking stupid. You are constructing, but you're not cosntructing strictly enough. Make sure each form is symmetrical and explicit. You would benefit very much from doing the Vilppu Drawing Manual exercises, drawing beans, boxes, cylinders. Basic forms are actually very difficult to draw, and they require their own practice to make them structurally sound in space. Please practice robot figures more

>>6636717
I get a bit lazy on legs but this is how I understand legs, counterbalanced with a ball for a kneecap.

>>6636727
Okay that makes more sense

Tryin to do more action poses

>>6636677
i draw he

>Proportions of my drawings fucked

>Feels like I'm just filling in shapes that just happen to fit together into the thing I want to draw
What do I do?

>>6636322
>>6636508
>>6636588
Good shit!

more gondola

>>6636782
Uh, I said both of those things to you, yesterday and today. (I think)

You can just ignore me and do what you think is best. Motivation to draw is most important

>>6636425
Bad reference

>>6636786
I have no idea who you are. I don't post in here normally

>>6636814
We’re all just passing shadows, aren’t we. Not alive, not dead, just… here

i love those shitty office pens from my work

>>6636824
i'm gonna kill myself

>>6636828
what happend anon?

>>6636782
>>6636786
I'm thinking of using a grid to help me see where shapes sit in comparison to each other, and fix my proportions. Wondering if this is a bad idea or not

>>6636904
Don't use a grid bro. I would also suggest not posting here anymore, because people will give you contradicting advice and constantly make your head spin, pulling you in all different directions.

>>6636824
do you like drawing shitty right feet pointing heels to the front too, faggot
you like drawing atrophied left legs too?
and short right arms in comparison to the left one?
>i..it was a shitty office pen, a...anon
it's your shitty art fag, next time you want to draw a chicken's foot for a left hand, at least do the common courtesy of drawing the chi...oh, in a way, you did.

>>6636925
>Don't use a grid bro
>people will give you contradicting advice and constantly make your head spin, pulling you in all different directions.
I'm just gonna give the grid a go for a bit and see how it works out. I went through the process of learning to read Japanese and I know everyone gives their own opinion on how to "properly" learn to a certain skill

>>6636824
Cute!

>>6636933
godspeed, confused-anon

>>6636395
blog?

reality is often wrong

did this smiling friends fanart and zach retweeted it so thats p cool

>>6636378
>>6636418
I am trying to fix the eye
I need a quick feedback before I continue with this

I suck big time with faces

>>6636950
there's not much to see but I have a pixiv account, maybe you also need an account to see all the stuff
https://www.pixiv.net/users/14735673

>>6636528
the third impact

>>6636395
these look more or less the same as they did when you first posted ITT. you are stagnating hard

>>6637079
not him, but what specifically do you think he should improve?

>>6637083
actually study instead of just drawing the same jumbled anime faces and poses over and over eternally? also those skulls are day 1 beginner tier unironically and show zero form understanding which leads me to believe that the little he seems to know is just memorized boobs and asses and not any actual drawing ability.

he literally posts has been posting the exact same thing almost daily with no discernible improvement, the only thing he changes is the hair to make it a different character lol

I NEED TO USE THE 20/80 METHOD BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW I'M VERY TIME LIMITED IN LEARNING


How should I know what will be the 20% that give me 80% of the results. This concept seems retarded.

>>6637089
20/80 isn't meant to be taken literally, just examine which things are useless in learning to draw whatever you want to draw. there is very little spillover in art practice, if you draw planes all day you wont get even slightly better at drawing faces or figures no matter how much you feel like you understand 3d space.

>>6637086
you didn't answer the question

>>6637086
>>6637083
Ah, so he hit "that" wall wherein you are now completely satisfied and therefore suffers the same face syndrome

The one and only way to break this is to imitate the artstyle of other artists and/or draw realism

>>6637092
He literally told him to study instead of symbol drawing the same shit over and over. Also why are you pulling the samefag shit every time you get called out for being a stagnant anime doodler? It's painfully obvious when every time you receive criticism someone goes "NTA but you are a doodoo head!!!". Pretty much everything that Anon said is true.

>>6637096
schizo. He's copping by just saying "study more lmao". Sure, those skulls are wonky, but his figures overall are very good. There's nothing in his art overall that I would immediately call out as being weak, and the criticizer is making himself out to be a huge crab. If you're a /beg/, there's no way you can tell if a good artist is being stagnant, because your level is just so low your eyes can't perceive change.

>>6637102
I love how when anybody ITT gets harsh critique nobody cares but when people call you out for being a hardstuck low beg you instantly start flooding the thread with "noo that anon is like good and you are like jealous!!!".
>study more
You draw the same faces and poses OVER AND OVER and you have been at the same level for like a year.

Worst of all you have 0 self awareness and any time you get criticism you activate the samefag defense force with obvious dicksucking like "uhm, hes so good u cant see the change". You are a stagnant anime doodler with 0 self-awareness.

>>6637102
>figures overall are very good
they're okay but there's still mistakes that lower the appeal like the collarbone and breasts

>>6637102
>his figures overall are very good
>There's nothing in his art overall that I would immediately call out as being weak
>there's no way you can tell if a good artist is being stagnant, because your level is just so low your eyes can't perceive change.

kek im siding with the "schizo" now this shit is too obvious.

>>6637112
>hardstuck low beg
lmao. post dismissed

>>6637114
homo

>>6637116
Not him. Is it really that surprising there are multiple fans of big booba on cargirls?

>>6637122
i am a fan of big booba on catgirls but only when they're drawn well

>>6637126
you don't know what good drawing is even if it were only 2 feet away from you

>>6637129

>>6637131
Stop responding to him. He was the fag that would have all his file names as "bweh" until people started telling him to fuck off. He never asks for critique ever and is only posting to farm responses from newfag /beg/s

>>6637131
animebros....

>>6637131
nyo...

>>6637137
huh?

>>6637131
'twas just a sketch, bro. Huge fucking crab

>>6636997
It's always cool to be noticed
I once posted a game demo using some supermega pixel sprites I made and a month later I got DM'd by Ryan to make it a full game

But I turned it down because I'd just landed a full time job :(

Big regrets thinking I could have made games for youtubers as a living

>>6636784
Comfy

>>6636931
Why are you so mad lol

>>6637175
he's a jealous beginner. If he were actually a good artist he wouldn't have worked so hard listing out all the "mistakes"

>>6636784
Sometimes I really feel like I miss that illusion of genuinity I lived with when I still had a circle of friends some year ago. It made the world feel a little less cold.
It was an illusion because in the end came out that half of the friends were just a bunch of fucking selfish assholes that didn't give a fuck about anything apart their own butt. Every time I lose a piece of innocence I become deader.
Blog over.

Op here I did the draw
I just woke up to take a piss,
this is my third post on this thread
I like to draw big booba cuties, that's all

>>6637137
wtf are you even talking mate

>>6637193
I love your work, 猫女先輩!大好き!

>>6637196
Thanks lad

>>6636322
>Improved contrast
That looks worse than the original

>>6637193
Jealousy is a mind plague. Keep on trucking.

>>6637230
why would anyone be jealous of low beg anime on a board where actual pros post though. smells like more samefag cope

>>6637234
meds, unironically

>>6637235
>anyone who doesn't dicksuck my shitty anime doodles of stagnation is a schizo

>>6637238
What about you show your doodles

>>6637234
>>6637238
Meds now!

>>6637234
>where actual pros post
Fairytale bullshit

>>6637240
sure? these are my warmups from imagination before life drawing while we were waiting for the model to come.

>get mogged
>start drama
>chase away people who can give crits
Why /beg/ sucks?

>>6637245
animeshitters on suicide watch lmao. just watch the cope and seethe that's coming

>>6637245
Doesn't look better than anime doodles to be honest
It's just faceless non stylized figures

>>6637249
thats like your opinion, the difference is that im not going to write 30 samefag responses calling myself amazing and "too good" to be critiqued like stagnationfriend has been doing for the last past year.

>>6637245
Cat girl anon is better than you. Can’t believe you were actually confident enough to post

>>6637252
uhhh ok i can send him to work for my clients instead haha, im sure they will be glad to receive a digital doodle of a wonky, vanishing point-free anime face instead of the oil painting that they wanted.

>>6637251
It's like 3 - 4 people talking to you mr. I_am_triggered_by_anime_poster.

>>6637254
Anime unironically makes more money

>>6637254
>vanishing point-free anime face
lol. lmao

>>6637254
You'd think that after spending over a year on here he'd at least learn how to draw a fucking pair of anime eyes that align to a VP

>open up CSP to start drawing
>suddenly get incredibly tired and lose all focus
LET ME DRAW DAMN YOU.

>>6637259
I am sorry
>>6637260
You can just give him advice or some redlines. You chose to be the grinch dude. You chose to be rude.

>>6637272
The thing is any time he receives any advice or redlines he has a meltdown and starts samefagging to defend himself.

>>6637086
Day 1 beginner? Are you fucking kidding me I have been drawing for 1 month and I can't even do that shit what he is doing

>>6637274
May be fellow /beg/ goers like seeing his works and want to defend him. There are 44 posters ITT.

>>6637274
>Samefagging
please stop, you've already been proven wrong
It's embarrassing at this point

>>6637245
Kino shape design.

>>6637274
>>6637281
>>6637282
Please stop. Dramas like these degrade the quality of the thread and chase people away. I want to see more works posted.

>>6636395
how long did you draw for anon? I like these. I feel like killing myself because I can't do that and I'm 1 month in. Well i just did retarded fundies studies for now so maybe thats the problem

>>6637245
These are quite good.

>>6637292
That guy has probably drawn for years, anon. Don’t worry

>>6637292
Looks like 6 months or so.

>>6637292
>1 month in
there is a long way to go

>>6637245
Looks like ai, can you post higher resolution and from different angle?

>>6637307
Seething about being mogged, nice.

>>6637307
Not him but you are retarded.

Here's an attempt at just the construction. Every time I get super into drawing for weeks or months, I end up feeling like I'm sliding backwards in terms of skill. This definitely feels like I'm sliding backwards.

>>6637310
I saw plenty of picks like that on /g/. Something isn't right.

>>6637309
I didn't even read what's going on here, just looked at pic with replys and instantly felt uncanny.

>>6637326
I like your level of delusionmaxxing.
>he mogs me to oblivion so its ai!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>6637326

pics or gtfo.

>>6637342
Nigga, just give him what he wants and stop acting like an insecure little shit

>just draw
ok
>open drawing program
now what

>>6637342
Ok, that was 5 mins
Do you really need more time to post your drafts?

>>6637349
realise that artists are born, they're simply talented
you clearly aren't, you will never be an artist

>>6637245
Fuck how did you learn this?

>>6637349
Just draw something you like. A character from your childhood cartoon maybe?
Why do you want people to give you reasons to draw? Too lazy? lack of creativity?

>>6637245
It's almost an hour since you got accused of AI
Are you not going to post further drafts?

Cause this would be sad, for everyone here

ready for roasting

>>6637363
That can't possibly be AI.

>>6637367
Eh, we'll know once or IF he provides a higher resolution

>>6637369
I still don't understand what that has to do with anything, it's just a scaled down photo. Unironically killing myself if AI can do stuff like that.

>>6637371
Drafts are easiest to fake with AI as errors are forgivable. Until you analyzed it closer

>>6637364
fuck off and don't come back until you copy all of Bridgman twice

>>6637371
it can't, animetranny is just mindbroken because he pulled the PYW card and realized he's talking to someone better than him. also the irony of being a digicuck and accusing tradchads of using AI

>>6637292
1 month to have discipline
3 months to have confidence
6 months to be tolerable
1 year to be presentable
2 years to be competitive
4+ years to be pro

Don't set unrealistic expectations and grind at your own pace.
Remember: you would get older regardless of what you do. Better to acquire a skill while getting older

>>6637358
>just draw something you like
ok i'll draw... uh... um... er.
>Too lazy? lack of creativity?
I think both. i have wanted to draw for years now but can never get anywhere because I dont know what to do.

>>6637376
Just post more, man
You have derailed the thread with your drama. Put an end to it by posting more

>>6637378
NTA, I started drawing 3 years ago and I still struggle with cubes and dont know how perspective applies to anything but a cube. What counts as time in this arbitrary timeline?

>>6637383
Chill it with the comparisons, mate
Everyone works at their own pace.

If you are improving, everything and everyone else can be ignored - especially external distrations that you have no control over

>>6637381
Can you draw a Pikachu? Draw easy stuffs first to build confidence anon.

>>6637373
any other reading recommendations?

>>6637390
>Pikachu
>easy stuffs
woah mama calm down with the flexing

Some 1 minute studies. Should I always ad the pelvis and ribgage or should I just try to add more lines? I did it after the tutorial at line-of-action.com

some 1 min "gesture" drawings. Did it after the tutorial on line-of-action.com

Should I always add the ribgage and pelvis or should I just add instead lines in that region?

>>6637402

Then draw a fucking Ditto then. You need to overcome your fear and procastinative instinct.

>>6637373
what do you mean by all of jumpoffbridge man? All his books?

>>6637364
It's cute but the face is nightmare inducing. The mouth especially.Also where is her right forearm below the leg? The left leg looks like it's outside of her pelvis

>>6637391
>>6637414
Any books or videos that teach you to see in 3d or "feel the forms" first. You copy Bridgman to learn the asthetic not anatomy. The faggot who told you to copy Bridgman is retarded.

>>6637421
https://www.youtube.com/live/-bRVlFGNfCA?feature=share
To add. Bridgman is for artist from /draw/ and up. Copying Bridgman without anatomy knowledge is retarded.

>>6637421
it’s the same niggas who treat the finch guide as gospel

>>6637451
Come back to the thread every blue moon. Begs still give advice; people still seethe and try to one up each others. Getting useful info from this hell is like catching a shiny pokemon in a Zubat cave.

>>6637272
Lol drawists really do be grinchin out doe fr fr

>>6637272
Didn't see the cock
I like

So im a 3d artist looking to get into 2d drawings for more freedom. And it's proving to be a billion times more difficult than I thought. My question is, can I copy my previous renders, if only to get started? Does that benefit me or waste my time? It sounds like I might be relying on my own renders in order to draw anything. Plus, I don't really know how to copy, as I understand its apparently not just drawing the lines like I thought it was.

>>6637272
FAAAAAAAGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTT

>>6637307
>AI on a piece of fucking newspaper
brehs my sides

What do you guys think of this? I dont have any irl friends to show I guess, you can critique if you want. Im getting better steadily at least.

>>6637552
oops

>>6637552
You've clearly put effort into this and I do like it some weird way but everybody will tell you the same thing, go draw some proper human beans with the help of vilppu, watts, hampton, bridgman, loomis etc.
now that doesn't mean that you should stop drawing your gaynime you can still do that when you cba to study a bunch of old boomer drawings

>>6637516
Draw a doughnut from imagination.

>>6637245
>no genitals
>no hands or feet
>no faces
Every time and everytime /beg/ is impressed

>>6637564
This is why good artists mostly avoid this board. They post and people respond with shit like this lmfao. Also the guy he was arguing with commits all of those mistakes and to a much greater degree and I don't see you bitching at him. Which makes all the schizos yelling samefag seem all the more justified.

>>6637559
thank you for your nice words and advice. I have yet to study anything but I guess thats the next step.

>>6637610
>commits all of those mistakes and to a much greater degree
he drew hands, faces and genitals, he's miles ahead

>>6637615
He didn't draw feet and the hands are downright abhorrent. Faces are meh if I'm being very generous.

>>6637621
anon just stop responding to him. he always does this when he gets criticized. his shtick is basically:
>post art
>samefag a few responses like "woow, im going to kill myself because you are sooooo good"
>gets critique from an actual other person
>initiates samefag spam, you can usually tell by the weird ESL syntax
>calls you a schizo if you call him out on it
>will say shit like "heh, he's too good for you to critique him" once sufficiently distressed


every single time, i have witnessed this exact meltdown at least 3 times at this point. and itt we have the DLC where someone actually PYWs at him and mogs him and now he's just spamming replies to that person to soothe himself.

just ignore him, he is not here to learn, he's here to post low effort anime doodles and expect praise.

also gotta love him responding here:

>>6637147

then an hour later he forgot about it and "came" to the thread pretending to be oblivious to what's going on: >>6637193


fucking tard really

>>6637628
You are wrong tho
I'm the guy who did drawing and I'm just lurking now
I only have 5 posts in this thread
And I started post here less than a month and appreciate any feedback

>>6637633
It's on phone so you can even say it's 4chanx, if you want I can make this with all other posts

Hate to respond to dramaposting but fucking lol

Retard turbobeg question here.

I'm really bad and lazy with figuring out a personal study plan for myself (adhd) So I torrented the art class from marc brunet, which has daily assignments and weekly subjects to study. The class takes almost 2 years. Right now I'm at week 4 and you have to do stuff like 30 minutes of 1 min gesture, drawing boxes in 1 and 2 point perspective, doing his top 10 drawing exercise video on youtube, drawing a male and female body in the 8 head porportion grid until I can do it from memory.

I should do that daily, but to be honest I hate most of these exercises but gestures. My question is: What should I do next to these daily assignments, should I just study things I want to draw? And is following such a course a bad Idea? I like that it is layed out for me because I can follow a path, it's hard for me to do that on my own.

>>6637674
Also, I'll keep posting my stuff here

>>6637633
The only tard here is you. Just to crab on somebody you turned /beg/ into drama central, so instead of seeing drawings people have to read your spergout.

>>6637678
most of the things learned from these courses are the same. The only major difference is the teaching style. what i suggest is that you do is master studies(copying an artist you like), studying(what you are doing now), and drawing what you learned.

>>6637245
I'd ask to see ur finished stuff since I love these but you probably dont wanna be associated with this place haha.

>>6637562

Why do I need to learn to draw characters by myself when I can literally do any pose with a 3d model and trace over it. Then put it into Controlnet to get it rendered and voila I have something comparable to someone who can do it without that.

first time back into drawing in awhile

i'm fucking terrified of drawing faces fun with a pencil traumatized me how do i get over this

Faces are hard ngl.

I don't give a fuck if it's gay or straight, if it looks like a hot girl I want to fuck it

>>6637844
just get reference in your style for every possible angle and copy it until it's burned into your head and until you're happy.

Based fellow on the clock artist.

All I got done today is pic related. They got me actually working most the day so I hardly had any time.

I'm just rambling but I'm trying to go through meds map and have been doing a lesson one day, practicing the rest of the week, and then repeating the process. First he taught how to render 3D shapes with a single light source which I felt like I did well at, but then the next week he went into stylized paintings using an apple as an example where he just made a few brush strokes and then blended. He says to practice on your own with different simple objects such as other fruits. This week he jumped up to painting skulls, and it feels like a huge leap. He barely explains in the demos how you're meant to visualize and break down things into shapes like that, the way I would go about breaking them down is different from how he would. his apple felt too abstract and his skull feels like the opposite where it's more complicated than it needs to be. He treats the skull like its as simple as just combining rendered 3d shapes together but then doesn't touch on all of the nuances to what he's doing to make it look cohesive. I don't understand why he went from a stylized abstract apple to a skull all the while saying its not about the accuracy if he was going to polish it so much and basically ignore the previous week's approach.

Really sounds like the course didn't do it for you anon, you should look into another.

>>6638367
>3 hours
I got to go to sleep. Maybe later.

Honestly, I'd rather spend twenty minutes watching a video and 2:40 drawing.

>>6638374
who says you have to watch it in one sitting

>>6638135
Watch the insertions and origins of the muscles, anon. The pec flows along with the deltoid muscles, and inserts between the biceps and triceps on the outer end. The neck has sternocleidomastoid muscles you're missing, which adds to the flow. The collarbone is it's own entity, not just the outline to the pecs. They have their own "bicycle handlebar" shape. These details matter

>>6638388
I looked at the first few minutes.
I'll save it for the weekend. I can't even follow it right now. It sounds useful, but it's in one ear and it the other.

sketch I'm think I'm done working on. Any critique?

>>6638394
just needed a doll to slap some clothes on bro

>>6638367
I tried again mostly ignoring his process and tried just eyeballing it and it went much better, I think the course is still overall good I might just have had a disconnect on that portion

>>6637985
you forgot the trapezius

hey bros i got a lil sketchbook but my drawings smear a lot inside, is there a way to stop this or just a reality of sketchbooks? i only really use graphite

>>6638444
i get it, but it's always good to reinforce good habits. The sketch you posted here is better, though, the cross contours seem lazy. You'd be surprised at how much difference a few milimeters make

>>6638506
A few millimeters of bone huh...

>>6638512
a few milimeters on your drawing

>>6637676

neck attachment to head and torso seems weird

Hello beg, i think i figured out what to do with pieces which dont have 16:9 ratio. Put the image there twice or its phases. Why? Because otherwise the miniatures look really bad on my blog and you cannot even clearly see what is on it. Also i couldnt feel the form of the stones creating bonfire under the helmet. Feels beg.

>>6634773
Thanks for the crit anon. I havent gotten actual crit in months! It blew me away. And yes i will admit most of what you pointed out is valid. To tell you the truth: i make the shit on the go and hope nobody will notice.
>>6638503
You either need to use fixative (spray with some turbo toxic substance) or put between the pages paper for baking or similar
>>6638262
that arm isnt attached to the body lol
>>6638128
pretty cool
>>6637985
reject the anatomy, go for maximum appeal. very cute thot
>>6637983
these heads need loomis or some book about how to draw heads
>>6637678
if you will draw from good references you will learn eventually. less thinking more drawing
>>6637516
the reason why all begs should use references is because they learn new things while observing the reference, instead of cementing bad habits while trying to draw from imagination. If your sculptures are good then i dont see a problem with it. But the better question is: why not use references from somebody even better than yourself? Maybe after you will copy the great Michelangelo’s David you will even learn something you didnt know before about sculpting...
>>6637364
you are on your own anon on this. i am speechless. this is breaking practically everything i learned so far from the art books. yet it has appeal. Like. Not even her legs are attached properly but its so astonishing nobody will ever notice that detail. I do 360 and run away from this.

yea, I couldn't quite figure out how to attach the neck properly.

does anybody know of the name of the youtube animator who makes 3d stuff, one time he made a video about teacup collections and something to do with a party in another apartment, i dunno
one of his earliest videos was a youtube storytime animation talking about his chicken coupe

>>6636322
Hey guys, I've been animating for a small 1 min project I want to do.

I kind of shyed away from animating acting / dialogue, focusing more on runs. I've been trying to go deep on that in this project. I love what I'm trying to do, but I only get it 80% of the way. Like I have the overall movements down, but it feels too clunky, and jittery. The majority of it is on 2's with a bit of 1's and 3's here and there.

Any tips on making these more refined / clearer to understand? They feel rushed and jittery. Sorry can't post voice lines with them, 4chan won't let me upload webms here

>>6638659
second piece

again, feels jittery and the keys don't feel clear. Not sure how to make them more pronounced without slowing / stopping the movement.

in the rough planning stage, and the head is the most important part, which is why the body cuts out

>>6638662
3rd one

this was the first one I did for the project, and feels the weakest imo

I love the exaggerated more cartoony movements of like ghibli stuff
sherlock hound and lupin for example, and want to emulate something similar

>283 days of study to get this good
is art a waste of time if you're a no-talent?

Life drawing today

>>6638680
Tried mostly focusing on shadow shapes

>>6638674
>Waste of time
Everyone will get better if they continue to draw. I thin that you are pretty good for a 1 year beg.

>>6638659
>>6638662
>>6638664
the jittery effect largely comes from the parts of the person you are panning instead of rotating. Like in the first one, every body part is moving through some sort of slight rotation, but the head in parts looks like it is just being panned from one location to the next. This usually adds some gittery feel to the animation. I have a picrel example, but it's kind of short so it might not show it well

>>6638684
I think I get what you're saying. I do keep my heads in static angles sometimes, that may be a big part of it I hadn't thought of.

>>6637985
try this

sup anons.

I'm having a hard time figuring out "where" to place the lighter shades on her dress. Its just not "clicking" fr me and I don't quite know why.

What you guys recommend?

don’t know if it’s normal to feel stressed and anxious when attempting certain drawings. like knowing something is too difficult before i even try. should i stay within a comfort zone at first, or do i have an actual problem?

Anyone got some pointers on folds or sneakers?

>>6638714
It's like the first time you ride a bike/motorcycles or learn to swim. These feelings will pass overtime. I am a porn addict so the only feeling i have is my ragging boner tellling me to finish the picture as fast as possible so I can crank my hog.

Progress isn't always a straight line. Sometimes you stumble upon a new bit of knowledge that just clicks with you and moves you forward in a big way. For me, it was prioritizing bones over muscles. But that's the tricky thing about self-learning - without guidance, it's easy to aimlessly shoot in the dark and get stuck in an echo chamber.

Since you are learning perspective and want to develop a game grab an old lucas art click and point game and check those backgrounds and study them, think about the graphic design, why are they using x vp in this room and not y?

How often do you draw purely from imagination?

>dont just draw the lines though
fucking..... how???????

>>6638878
Draw like them but don't copy 1:1

Didn't see this till >>6638730 this reply, he's right that is really cool

>>6638953
>put the pen down
Now its on the table how does this help me draw

>>6638957
capture the idea rather than the exact likeness. Be more focused on understanding the underlying properties of the material rather than copying it on a 1:1 basis.

>>6638525
>Nice cock
Thanks. I did try.

>>6638969
you guys really like seeing me type 'fucking..... how???????' Dont you.

>>6638990

nta

I can do this already from memory, but the problem is when I do it it ends up too narrow or too wide on one side, I even have this problem on the grid, without it I'm lost

getting out of my comfort zone by actually trying to render shit instead of hiding behind lineart. i think i did okay, but its pretty late here so i left some parts to be refined in the morning. this is my personification of nature for a story im writing

>>6639085
she has a human design too, but i want to flesh it out more

>>6638566
Ok. Can I give advice now?

>>6639088

Don't use that word. You're just not there yet. Find the ppl you love, copy it, trace it then copy it again. See where you're going wrong. Learn the story of the lines.
