OP is a no-draw lunatic so you can't take these images remotely seriously.

>>6976967
Remember:
before criticising any of my work I post, I will require this information about you
1. your full name - name and surname
2. the address of your current residence
3. the address of your workplace
4. your marital status and the name of your spouse, if any
5. your annual wage, before and after tax
6. your license plate
7. your place of birth
8. the names of your parents
9. your credit card number and the expiration date
and finally you MUST post your work.
If but one of these points is not met, or, if I am unable to find a Wikipedia page about you, that matches the information you have given, that lists you as a prominent artist in any artistic field, all your critique directed towards me or my work is invalid and actually the opposite of what you say is true and my work is perfect and devoid of any mistakes.
Also, when you do criticise my work, you can not use any word included in the following list because your post will automatically get filtered by my automatic filtering system. You must treat me like a toddler when you criticise my work or I will cry.

Let's keep it nice and civil in here, folks.

from a discord whiteboard, managed to screenshop before it got destroyed

Is my Kirby cute?

i was hoping this book would have more on facial features but they each get like a one page spread of examples, bummer
>morpho head book coming april 2024
boy

I won’t be drawing for this thread, either.

>>6977021
I would in ur place but people are mean here :(

>>6976967
cheeky op practicing compositing nice job man

>>6975951
>How do you mix colors well in csp (or use wet brushes) without fucking up your wrist?
>Im used to krita and am trying out the csp free trial
anyone?

Should I go through Eviston if I don't want to do trad? Will information be useful even if I don't practice exactly as it is taught in the book?

>>6977016
Draw contour lines before placing features. Make sure that the contour could feasibly go around the entire form, even to the unseen side (an ellipse for your sphere). Define where the side of your sphere is so you can connect the arm properly. Make sure the farther away foot is a bit smaller than the closer one.

I think you’d benefit a lot from learning perspective and form. Go watch some Vilppu. Otherwise, I appreciate that you’re trying to do smooth, sweeping strokes instead of scratchy line petting

posting this again jic. What are the most glaring issues? Which direction should i take it to convey the atmosphere i want? ( Shame & sadness)

Blessings of Vilppu upon you people

Is there any good guides for adding form and integrating it into anatomy? I feel utterly confused and I can’t see 3d stuff.

>>6977017
You got how to draw whites, asians, arabs and blacks in the Morpho book tho
Why not pick the framework and improvise a little with what you got? Could be fun, also good way to maximise gains and keeping learning material manageable in scope

>>6977063
that's pretty much why I wanted to do more morpho facial features, I'm getting a bit more comfortable with them so once I'm done with the practice examples of the other features I'll try doing more heads from reference before I start the body

Early stages of trying to draw a character scrambling up a wall in perspective.

>>6977061
Read the OP beginner guide

I seek critiques. How is my rendering? I feel like I should've made the light values lighter.

Hands are so hard lol
>>6976967
Kek, thread baker is truly the best artist in these threads
>>6977046
Yes. I’d try them with a pencil since it’s easier to get the pencil to act like a pencil than it is to get digital to act like a pencil, but what you learn will transfer over to all mediums. If you do the exercises in digital, you’ll still learn basically everything you would if you did it in trad. Just not the stuff that’s specific to the trad medium like how to sharpen a pencil.
>>6977016
Also yes
>>6977017
These look really good, anon
>>6977032
Right?
>>6977050
This isn’t meant to be sexual, right? Cuz the physical closeness, in the dark, the kid blushing, and the deep gazing into each others’ eyes is kinda… romantic. It doesn’t sound like that’s what you’re going for though. I can’t really tell what’s supposed to be happening. What happened to the kid’s arm?
>>6977060
And also upon you
>>6977061
Start off with Vilppu’s drawing manual and renaissance figure drawing course, and then study Morpho simple forms.
>>6977066
If I were you, I’d go through the entire book and then learn head drawing from a specific head drawing book or course.
>>6977077
Ganbatte, anon
>>6977104
This just looks like you forgot to add the light shapes. Make the light shapes lighter. The shadow edges on her jawline are a little too sharp and hard. Overall very good study, anon!

>>6977114
Hm i see what you mean. No this piece is not supposed to be sexual. I do ship these two but this piece was supposed to be the terminator lost his skin and John still accepts him. So the terminator is at the closest to feeling some sort of shame. It's a habit for me to draw blush. Maybe it looks so sexual because I'm so used to drawing smut at this point that it carries over into my sfw art lol oops. Well, I'll see what i can do, not just with the lighting tip someone gave earlier, but for the 'sexuality' of it as well. The boy's arm is coming back i just hid it for now to draw the basic form of the ribcage shape.

>>6977114
That's a lot better than what i can do; when drawing hands Care to share your process?

Hrmmm

>>6977140
damn idk how accurate those shadows are on his sleeve but the rendering is really nice

>>6977022
I know. That’s why I stopped drawing.

>>6977081
The posing here looks unnatural. I can’t tell if he’s supposed to be in motion or not. If he’s kicking, then have one of the arms back to counter the leg. The center of weight should also be slanted in movement/mid-action poses, especially when kicking or moving the weight-bearing areas. Practice more gestures for a bit. Look at Glenn Vilppu and Steve Huston.

>>6977022
I don’t mind 1,200 people calling me a faggot so long as they say something useful. The problem is that they aren’t being useful half the time. Most of the people that exclusively throw out insults without insight are no-draw permabegs who are extremely insecure about their non-existent future in a terminally-ill industry.

The key here is to not let your art skills define your sense of self-worth, which is basically impossible to do if you’re pursuing art professionally

>>6977129
>i do ship these two

>>6977178
yeah? lol
seethe in cringe bro

>>6977164
colors are good, but it looks messy, and not deliberately. there's confidence in the color choice, but no confidence in the brush strokes. How big is this? try going bigger, if you can afford it. maybe try using a wide brush only, as a challenge to make yourself have more confidence in your paint placement

>>6977050
The guy’s limbs and pupil are poorly-defined. It makes his pose unreadable.

>>6977189
Thank you for the color compliment! Tbh I just posted this as a why-not, I did not really do studies and research as paint and watercolor as a material is new to me. And yeah it was pretty stupid to go this small, I will work A4 next time

>>6977179
stay several feet away from all elementary schools please

For some reason everytime I try drawing a girl's head end up drawing as a ball or too ovular in general, I have far less issues with men. What am I doing wrong? I it just not enough practice?

Bro, the art is not even supposed to be sexual. Hey well if it makes you happy that you can say the lowest you've seen on 4chan ic is art of terminator 2 john x t880, that's fine. I've seen polandball feminized catboy nazi germany porn on this site the art i drew is tame in comparison

>>6977214
Draw the hands, coward. Also, the navel isn’t positioned properly. Establish the midline contour of the stomach first, and place it slightly higher up (below 10th rib, above iliac crest)

>>6977214
Also, the left elbow is lower than the right. Both elbows should bend at the 10th rib

>>6977145
I should have put the references in the pic
Deleted the layer for the other reference
I don't know how to improve (Other than drawing)

>>6977202
Because pedos are now the go to scapegoat for all of the problems of society after gays passed the torch on. The saddest part is that the more people get falsely accused or lumped in with child diddlers, the more easily the actual sleazebags can navigate.

One more lazy sketch before sleep to see what these colored pencils can do! Rest well kings, it is an honor to grind with you, we get better every single day

Is there a book out there that mixes the Reilly method with figure drawing a la the Loomis method w/ FWAP? I'm going through Morpho rn, but the head section looks like it's full of demented aliens, so I think I wanna try something else for those.
The problem is I can't find shit on the Reilly method outside of crappy Youtube videos and 500 dollar courses from literal whos.

I just realized today that when I draw heads in certain angles I set the features of the lower half of the face too far back, which makes everything look off. I've been drawing for close to a decade and only just spotted it. Tens of thousands of heads, including skull studies, and I only see this shit now. Looks like I'm retarded after all. Even if I do make it, it will probably take 50x as long as the average person. I wish I was dead.

>>6977302
a true retard would have never realized this mistake, youre gmi

>>6977300
morpho head basically uses huston's method you can find in the 3 hour NMA intro video

same artist? or are you giving a critique? cuz it looks pretty nice. it's making me think of last supper though with that 1point perspective and the windows.

how does this look so far?

>>6977391
thats sick man

I have been writing since I was 12 years old and I originally tried drawing, but I didn't do it because I thought I could never get good at it.

12 years later, I'm regretting all the time I wasted writing, and I want to get into drawing.
Everyone compliments my writing. But, and this sounds harsh: I fucking hate it all. I wish I had never gotten into it in the first place. I've never finished a single story I've ever written (which are all just fanfiction, nothing original that I can call my own.) And I wish I had gotten into visual art instead.
I usually have a very vivid imagination when I'm writing, but I still find it unsatisfying because almost everything I actually want to write about would be better suited for a visual medium, which is why I wrote fanfiction for so long. Now, I'm stuck. I don't know what to do.

>>6977413
just start drawing? it's never too late, your writing skill will not disappear and you might find new motivation from doing other art as well

anon i love you thank you for this, very helpful

Took some advice from the last. I'm a little sad at the loss of the color illusion of the blue in the jacket looking green, but maybe i can bring it back somehow. not final, these are just mocks of where i could go with the lighting.

>>6977391
I love the use of the rake brush. But i think the swirls could do with more brush stabilizing? they look janky, but i do like the idea .

>>6977413
the struggle of every single artist is that their art doesn't look like how it is in their heads. unless you cannot see pictures in your head. Then you have nothing to compare it to. Act like the people who cannot see pictures in their minds, and draw anyways. as long as you get 30% of the way to what you saw, you're improving.
i seriously dont get whats up with this board and thinking you have to start young, like, are you afraid of your art looking like ms paint deviantart/furaffinity fetish art? So? Who CARES just get your ideas on the paper. What are your goals? Because that should be your motivator for art. Is your goal to express your ideas that you dont want to keep in your head anymore? If that's literally it, then just keep a sketchbook and draw those ideas. ????
>>6977214
i love your art style. I do like where you are going with the hatching following the direction of the hair too.

>>6977302
Can you post an example

Recent sketches i've done.

Been browsing this board for months but i've always been afraid to post my drawings in it. Still afraid of doing so, i feel like i dont fit anywhere. Hope i become a regular poster in here to improve my consistency a little bit.

Its always good to see other people's art.

>>6977527
Right drawing looks based, keep posting

>>6977269
>nobody is responding because nobody knows what you mean or how is color picking / using color mix tab related to your wrist

I repeatedly stroke the area to blend.

Trying to figure out how to make smooth gradients between colors when drawing.
I clearly dont know how things work properly.

6th day of doing face practice. I had a headache for most of the night so I def fucked up a everything on the left side but I started to recover for the right figure. Couldnt figure out how to place the right boob. I can already tell my face blindness is starting to hamper me since I keep doing the same expressions.

Do I actually want to be an artist or not?
I don't know if I just like the idea of doing it or actually doing it. I want to be an artist, but I can barely actually do any of the art. It's inseparable. It'd be like me trying to be a body builder without lifting weights.
If I wanted to actually do anything, then wouldn't I just be doing it? I should give up.
I have literally tried doing several artistic hobbies and gave up each of them immediately when I was a teenager.
>Gave up on Source Filmmaker
>Gave up on GameMaker
>Gave up on FireAlpaca
>Gave up on Photoshop
I didn't know how any of them worked or what to
do. I don't even know basic trig. Even when I look art guides, i literally cannot comprehend them or figure them out. I don't want to be stuck with no creativity or being unable to express myself.

>>6977578

Pick a beginner book.

Buy pencils and some cheap A4 printer papers.

Practice.

>>6977585
What guides should I follow? There's literally hundreds of them and I don't know which one to choose.

>Tried the upside down sketch, fucked it up
How did you fuck it up? It’s going to look like shit every time. It’s a lesson about drawing what you actually see and not how you imagine it to be. So when you flip it back over, you go “holy shit that’s hideous” and hopefully try to more objectively observe and analyze your subject.

>>6977614
psst.. I think the response he was looking for was "Oh buddy, i'm so sorry. you really do have a low iq, give up" or something.. ( although, i agree with you )

I didn't even have enough room to fit the guys head on the page. I had no idea I would need to finish it.

>>6977623
do it with chalk on pavement then, it's an exercise.

you keep sharing your thoughts and your frustrations, but we cannot help you if you have no art for us to critique. and even then, no one is obligated to critique it. It's time for you to contribute, pyw. Can we expect to see some of your art soon?

>>6977631
Here's a like exercise I tried doing like 6 months ago.

>>6977635
6 months ago? why don't you try the exercise again? Why not a doodle, like the pic i just sent? trace your hand, try to do the optical illusion.

>>6977641
My mind and body usually just locks up and prevents me from actually doing anything. I just look down and feel like "What the fuck's the point?" And I just give up and look at my phone again. I don't know how to fix my lack of execution function.

gonna ask here too cuz why not; what's a good figure video course/course in general to get to my goal? Feels i can kinda get the construction of an irl pose, but i can't put on the human forms onto it or stylize it into "anime" proportions for the life of me.

Thanks
Come to tbink of it I drew literally 1 martial arts gesture in total

should i be putting gradients on them? or should i wait until my coloring isn't boring anymore (i don't know how to go beyond just "base color and then just 1 multiply shading layer") how do i color better?

>>6977821
reference (i wanted to color like this but mine looks bad)

new attempt today
this didnt turn out so well
but always improving, always improve

>>6977845
The nose and eyes read as facing upwards, but the mouth and jaw don't follow. Unless your model has their mouth wide open the bottom of the jaw should be visible here.

>>6977848
she does have the mouth wide open. also i just threw in those lines for the mouth after i have already decided to drop it because of mistakes i did.

when should i use a box to construct and when should i use stuff like circles for the torso? or does it really not matter

>>6977855
If the body is more skinny its easier to go with boxes
If the body is fat or thicc use circes

>>6977855
Boxes are usually better for male characters or buff women cause they make attaching all the muscles easier
Circles if you are going for like a curvy hourglass and/or really want to emphasize the ribcage
In the end it barely matters desu just use what comes easier to you

Any good resources for learning to draw landscapes?

>>6977855
it doesn't really matter use the abstraction thats easier to understand, just keep in mind that there are shapes that provide more information, a parallelepiped have well defined axis so it makes easier to place things in space, then goes the cylinder (you loose 2 axis of information because circles) and finally a plain circle/ellipse (just a point/radius and an angle) doesn't provide too much information of the space

>>6977589

>>6977889
happy to see not retarded take on it

>>6977903
Even more of a retard is somekne who can't figure out something as simple as which forms to use for construction
Do you use boxes to draw apples before a non-retard sets you str8?

I didn’t draw yesterday!

>>6977022
Don't mean this as an insult, but try reddit. Will probably get better advice, but not the same amount of freedom to express yourself. Or man up and take the insults on the chin, it's all just pixels on a screen anyway.

>>6977920
Not him, but do I have a better chance getting replies on reddit? I mainly post here cause I feel like my post would get lost on the art subs

>>6977217
>>6977220
I don't agree with these. Left shoulder is slouched lower than the right, elbow placements match accordingly. Everything else you said is too by-the-books for a drawing in a cartoony style that already reads well. Most glaring issue, for the style and medium they used, is the hair texture.

on the contrary to this, i like how skullgirls uses a box for the hips. It makes it look thicker, and sexier imo.

>>6977740

I’ve been making ceramic tiles

still shit but at least improving

how long do you usually spend on a singular study of a face?

>>6978192
i was just messing with you. i actually like it. dunno about the harley logo. feels a bit out of place but i dig the design.

I can't do painting. I've tried a lot of methods but shit doesnt work. I did use gradient maps on this on and the early results are really weird. I used the tools trying to fix the curve level but I (just noticed) lost all the "shading" part...
Tips would be great.

>>6978224
that one i guess an hour
this one 40 minutes>>6977845
im drawing the same face over and over until i get it right
im getting closer with every attempt

>>6978233
I'm on the same boat, I havent found any quality information on digital painting even proko med maps feels incomplete, So far the best source have found is lin ran old blog post on color and RGB picker, but for actual brushwork nothing (maybe ctrl paint).

>>6977622
Woah, very nice.

>>6978192
very very nice effort, good colors, good clothing, nice eyes and hair...
the problem is, you can't really tell what she's doing, like climbing stairs with a gun and a cigarette and that weird grasping pose on the left hand? There's also a lot of clutter with the stairs, the bike blending with the gun, patches, wings and all, with the dynamic pose added on top it's kinda messy. The eyes really save it though, very nice focal point.
You have taste for "Cool" things, you just need to put them together in a more thought-out and tasteful manner. I'd call this piece done btw, it's good, go next

>>6977727
>>6978192

sorry for my bad english btw

>>6977578
Motherfucker I know you're an attention seeking schizo, but if you are actually being real, I have the same problem because of depression and ADHD. My solution is to just start drawing something you have an interest in, and once I start I am actually having fun adding things to my drawing and figuring stuff out.

If even drawing something you like doesn't bring you joy this hobby probably isn't for you or your depression is so bad that you don't have fun with anything, you need to change your life and seek help.

https://litter.catbox.moe/5yas9j.jpg
Not porn, so won't disappoint you by saying it now.

The only other art place I browse did this thing, so I wanted to post my greatest hits(favs) too; remind myself why I draw, even if I don't have much time for it now.
/beg/ is where I started, still here obviously.

A year and a half now, maybe 2? Pretty inconsistent since the first year; lacking inspiration recently.

Rambling on, but hope everyone keeps drawing.

start with 1point perspective. Do the really easy city of boxes thing, move into values. Then, do a value painting of a landscape either from a photo or real life, any medium try to build from there

>really easy city of boxes thing

>>6978427
Based

more figures, took more time now. I added lovelifedrawing like some anons recommended, and their 9/95 ratio rule of theory/practice was pretty eye opening in terms of how much grinding I need to do. still looks like shit but I think I'm kinda feeling some progress

I did not draw today either.

>>6978444
all you need
1. a ruler or a piece of string
2. pencil
3. eraser
4. draw lines radiating from the center of the page
5. make boxes
6. add windows

done. it will look simple. that's the point. Are you guys really expecting a masterpiece to come out of your hands on day one of practice? Wtf?

>>6978427
Nyes pale skin/other.

>>6978365
I'm not sure what I like drawing yet. I wanted to draw robots I guess, I don't know.

mexibros... won...

I feel bad I ever tried. What a sad waste of time. Sorry for subjecting anons to my fail portraits.

Doing some drawings for fun and realizing that I've gotta do more studies regarding body construction. But I'm surprisingly looking forward to it compared to other times I've tried to draw in the past. Guess it really is about attitude.

>>6978557
Don't give up now, you just started. You have no idea of how much art is going to give to you. Stay disciplined in your practice, draw what you like and how you like it.

Dont give up now where you can barely see the fruit of you labour. Keep going and achieve greater heights.

>>6978557
I've maybe had one mediocre (that is, not complete shit) portrait after several months of practicing them

And you shouldn't be sorry for a damn thing: the whole point of this thread is to fail and get better

hello :) what stands out as the most shit aspect of my drawings? If you were me what would you focus on grinding out?

>>6977727
She's leaning backwards

>>6978632
the proportions are the worst thing I would say but what are you aiming to draw? some of these are actual monsters in which case you just need rendering to make those aweful forms look spooky and believable, what are your inspirations? or who's the best artist who is the closest to what you wanna be? I'de recommend copying/ studying them, then you'll realize the things they can excel at that you are unable to replicate at a glance.

Sup beg, today somebody on twitter called my art modern and contemporary. It is over. Also i want to say i am dissapointed at all the anons who feed trolls (You)s and dont give any to posts with work. Shame on all of you!

>>6978468
looks beg but keep drawing, use brush with thicker lines
>>6978233
take the 2nd girl, set the layer on multiply and slap it on top of 4th girl, use filter levels on the 2nd layer and make mid tones darker and it will all look like pro made it
>>6978221
dont run away from half done work. PUSH through and finish that shit
>>6978206
i am not sure if there is supposed to be more tiles and i am looking at just like 5% of canvas or not. BUT. you put too much stuff in it. It is all merging together, the composition is super fucked up busy. remember that sometimes less is more. and research more hatching techniques so you can more definitely separate objects

fwap bab

i suck at markmaking

>>6978654
I gave it a shot

I decided “Nah. Fuck this. These hands are wonky, I’m gonna skip the rest of these and just do the Bridgman hands book or something.” Turns out I finished all the hands. Literally the next page is full of pelvises and femurs.
>>6977129
Huh. Well, that explains it lol.
>>6977135
I’m just copying from the Hampton book. I don’t like how they look. Don’t really have a process.
>>6977269
>>6978653
Good, but you need to draw these from life.
>>6977340
I mean, if you like them, fine. It’s good mileage. I didn’t, so I just skipped them. Gonna learn heads later.
>>6977360
>>6977389
Very cool
>>6977362
Looks more like a slender woman than a loli. The big, dark nipples and pubes are the secondary sex characteristics you only see on grown-ass women. Anatomy needs some work, especially the armpit and crotch/adductors. Her hips don’t look connected to her torso. Very cute face, though.
>>6977391
Looks like his arm is missing, or the sword was shoved through his back and popped his arm off and that’s where the blood is coming from. Doesn’t look like the blood on the blade is from use. Looks like he’s bleeding on it. Otherwise this is fucking amazing

Looking at your level, I’d say go through Michael Hampton’s book and study the drawings so you understand the anatomy well enough to use it, then copy your favorite anime.
>>6977761
Cute
>>6977836
Nice. Looks like her arms might be a bit short maybe. I’d have her nipples angled out slightly more. She looks kind of lean and defined and hard for such a curvy woman. But this is very nice.

Your rendering better be top notch if you’re gonna use gradient maps. I’d work on black and white value studies.

trying to get better at using less lines and really finding the form in 3D space. Proportions are getting better. Still a long road to anything decent but i will try

Looks good man. Clear improvement.

Girl good.

Pencil died, thought of looking back on pieces I’ve done. I noticed it lacks something that gives the sense of ‘professionalism’ but I can’t pinpoint exactly what it is. Can anyone help?

>>6978988
work on your figure drawing construction more. it's not quite there

Alright, which figure drawing book is the most retard proof and has the least amount of text in it?

Didn't get to draw today but that's okay I'll draw a lot when I wake up

>>6978900
these are really good how long have you been working at gesture?

>>6979001
>Alright, which figure drawing book is the most retard proof and has the least amount of text in it?
How to draw Comics the Marvel Way, unironically. It doesn't get any more straightforward and honest than that

at least i can use my tablet to solve equations...

>>6979015
the book lacks straightforward exercises though...

was going to shade this but I ultimately just dont like how its turned out, ive fucked up almost every aspect of it and i just want to be finished with it

anatomy and proportions are probably all messed up but I'm too tired to notic06pgre them

>>6979020
I think the only available exercise is to do figure drawing, anon

We do a little drawing

>>6978861
>https://github.com/pawell2418/pawell2418.github.io
Oh. thx! ill look into it when i have the time and motivation to code again

Would it be a good way to study anatomy and have fun
1. Setup scenes I wanna do with Vilppu action lines
2. Flesh them out using morpho forms as reference
I wanna study anatomy but copying models might cause the figures drawn to become rigid and I wanna conform the anatomy to action lines and not otherwise

>>6979061
learn anatomy 1 muscle at a time

>>6979005
five days or so, here's what i started with.
I might be getting better because i'm practicing every little suggestion in hamtpon's book and trying to internalize it. or just beg gains.
I'm feeling that scrutinizing the forms of the head, torso and pelvis and figuring out where they lie in 3d space and their proportions is the key. And finding the longest rhythmic line from head to weight bearing foot. After I nail that I'm gonna try putting anatomy in.

60s gestures
>>6978900
These look great! You’re beginning to feel the form here. These are absolutely decent and are basically at the level you need them to be to begin fleshing them out into full drawings
>>6978904
Breddy gud, keep training accuracy. This looks very nice. Look at where the adductors meet the pubic bone/mound/labia majora in the reference compared to yours. You missed a good bit of detail there. If that wasn’t the focus of your study then that’s fine, I’m pointing it out just in case
>>6978912
>proportions
*nervous sweating*
>>6978926
Not bad! Check the overlap of her right (our left) breast on her torso, above and below her bra in the middle. Her boob would probably overlap her ribs rather than vice versa. I like the shapes
>>6978935
I like the more charming, friendlier feel of the left, with her rounder face and smile and warm palette, but the right shows a bit more skill. I’d fix the tangent formed by her left (our right) shoulder/upper arm where it meets the armor
>>6979001
Oh fug you’re right. I did some gestures now because of this post.
>>6979029
As much as people harp on needing to do finished works, it’s also important to know when you should just move on. I think we begs mostly need mileage. The price we pay to git gud is to sacrifice thousands of bad drawings to the art gods before they’ll grant us the ability to make good drawings. You might be bothered because you drew one breast in complete side profile and the facing us dead on, instead of drawing both in roughly 3/4
>>6979030
It’s fine
>>6979052
Very nice shapes, highly appealing
>>6979061
After you know the anatomy, yeah, think about designing it with appeal. But to learn? That’s like learning the primitive forms by drawing snakes instead of cylinders, or trying to learn to draw boxes by drawing cars instead. It’s good practice, and you can do it in addition to Hampton, Morpho, etc., but not as the sole method of learning anatomy. (Unless you really like it)

>6979076

>>6979084
Has Vilppu gone too far?

>>6979001
Steve Huston book explains stuff well in my opinion. Also has videos if you prefer. Love Life Drawing on youtube is really good.

>>6979081
>beginning to feel the form
yes yes good, i intend to do some anatomy study. Do you have any recommendations? should I do morpho?
I like your 60s gestures, good line economy and the darker strokes add to the dynamism.
>>6979084
kino, had to try a doodle

thanks for deleting the thread, can't have any fun in this hellhole.
and no, it was not a request for free work, retarded crabby mods.

>>6978988
looks pretty good. their heads proportions are a bit weird, too round and missing some of the top of their skulls.
your rendering isn't bad, compared to pro stuff it just looks unfinished. copying their workflow and applying the extra stages of rendering/polishing will help a lot.
the the mignon book is pretty good. has bonus videos too. they are on e-h.
this guys videos should help too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mc19XdEe8qg

>>6979154
the gantz thread got deleted?

>>6978644
maybe if the lower body was redrawn like this?

>>6978900
Based, for me hampton didn't click for gesture, vilppu did, but everyone is different

>>6979155
NTA, but where'd you get the english translation of this book please?

stuff. An anon suggested me a villpu course to get into figure drawing. I attempted his methods after watching his first section. I kinda get what he means by feeling the pose, but at the same time I don't. I do feel a lil more comfortable with throwing down figures though, by copying how he drew in the vid.

first time drawing,
found this board thanks to /lit/ (i posted this by accident there first); tried to do the sketch in the sticky, this is going to be painful

i think i have it this time and this only took me 20 minutes
bruteforcing works after all

>>6978988
Some of your color shapes have rough outlines, a ton of pros and most weebs do them using a lasso or polygon tool

>>6979207
Someone actually read the sticky thank god, happy to have you here anon good luck

>>6979218
keep it up but also try drawing from reference

>>6979221
>keep it up but also try drawing from reference
that is what im doing, im drawing from the same reference over and over until i get it right

>>6979227
Do you need that many construction lines when drawing from reference? My understanding was the reason construction lines are made is to help artists draw within correct anatomical proportions but when there's a reference the correct anatomy is right there in the photo so for photo studies I just drew as close to the ref as possible but never used construction lines. and when drawing from imagination construction was helpful to remember and creature faces with believable proportions at any angle

>>6979230
>Do you need that many construction lines when drawing from reference?
yes i definitely do. i am using the Reilly method and i try to use as few as possible.
but here, first the oval for the head, the center line, the pit of the neck, then the distance from hairline to browline, then from browline to the bottom of the nose, then the sideplanes, the eyes, that is all required for sure and depending on what youre drawing or emphasising more lines are needed.
the idea of not using any construction is retarded.

>>6979242
could you post the reference you're using?

>construct head
>everything is off
>free transform and redraw until it fits together
better luck next time!

>>6979242
>the idea of not using any construction is retarded.

wait.. was Kim Jung Gi retarded?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPtCZ5Nbd6M

>>6979278
?

>>6979285
Notice the drawing on the right, the first one he drew has no construction lines ._. Of course when teaching others he uses construction but that's an extension of what I was saying before.

you use construction lines to learn consistency proportion/perspective etc but eventually after practicing and enough work you learn to do it in your own head without the construction lines, or having the lines in your head. I thought the idea was that they were training wheels, using construction when you have a reference seems to defeat the purpose of reference no? because in my brain I always thought construction was for making strong consistent artwork without reference or when references aren't available. It's like a guideline or training wheels. If I'm wrong or that doesn't make sense let me know.

>>6979293
My mistake, I meant the drawing on the left which is where he draws normally not the right which is where he teaches others "I envision it in boxes first" but again that just means he creates the grid in his head and is showing others how to create 3d looking figures. but again if you watch him draw notice how he himself doesn't actually need to draw those construction lines, they are in his head from years of practice and visualization. Not saying construction is bad, infact it's great but is it retarded to not use construction lines when drawing from reference or drawing in general?

>>6979285

Are you proud of yourself? Is this what you wanted?

im making the values too dark again
its like i cant help myself, its always on accident
but on the other hand im not using black yet so maybe itll work out in the end

>>6979296
Yes it is retarded. Any kind of sketching between the idea and the final product is retard0 because it slows you down

I havent drawn consistently in years, finally have time to draw again. Cant wait to steadily improve again.

first attempt thats worth finishing
the cat ears however, too funny

>>6979339
Would love to some more of your work

kawaii ^-^ hahahah
lol

>>6979338
Alright smartass At your stage it isn't slowing you down but if you don't need the training wheels anymore years from now and can make good figures without construction/guidelines then why would you?
ya feel me?

Also here's another ref drawing with no construction lines cause.. yknow the whole thing was right there to copy, although it's not photorealism but I would draw a portrait the same way

this angle was quite hard for me

>>6979355
coming along nicely

Thanks for the suggestions.

>>6979365
gave it a try, I need more practice too

>>6979332
I could ask the same of you people. After all, you’re the ones who felt the need to discourage me. Then I present you the fruits of your labor and all you’ve done is whine like little bitches.

please do not engage

>>6978233
i think it looks nice, the colors are pretty. your painting skills match your drawing ability. usually when people improve their knowledge of form/anatomy painting gets easier, so work on those side by side

>>6979396
Making strangers on the Internet responsible for your actions as an adult is the most childish thing you can do. Stop being a fucking crybaby

>>6979387
I think this is headed in the right direction it just needs the finger proportions adjusted. Maybe try bending them more as well

>>6979406
You people also whine when you feel your advice isn’t taken. So you’re going to throw tantrums no matter what. But you’ll call me a child?

>>6979416
Shut up and draw so I can seethe at your mistakes

I think I got what "just draw" means. It can get pretty overwhelming when you don't have a sense of direction of where to go next with your studies, so just drawing random easy things can take off a lot of stress. All in all it is mileage and will come in handy later, cause you don't have many opportunities to draw mundane things when you draw heads or figures all the time..

Drawing marine life is pretty fun frfr nocap

>>6978991
I did some after reading this, and you’re right. Quite shaky in this aspect.
>>6979155
Pretty good points. I wasn’t even aware of the skull issue.
>>6979219

Thanks for the great feedback! Have a great day anons

going to use white and black next

Watched Proko's vid on Loomis heads and tried reading Loomis' book, but it just doesn't click with me yet. For now I am trying to just draw overall head shape to burn it into my memory. I drew around 30. They all needed very heavy fixing, because when I tried just Loomis method, the result wasn't close to the reference, usually the cranium was either too small or too big. I'll do couple more and move on to studying actual head planes. Hopefully it will click after couple dozen asaro heads. I'll just keep grinding.

drawing lips is super hard

still not great but at least now its not anymore about me not getting it and more about practice
not facing a brick wall anymore
moving on to the next chapter now, which is hair, which i will add to this image after reading the chapter.
also i feel like i overdid it with the white

focusing lines is hard

>>6979437
Love the fishie on the top right

ok, final figure drawing before I take a break and switch it up for a couple of days, what are the most obvious mistakes? also no, I didn't try to make the wet t shirt on the sketch

>>6979406
word

Why does Vilppu teach to sketch people out in the real instead of from photos?

>>6979416
Yes. It's because when it's done consistently, it makes said artist look like they are asking for attention instead of review. It's fine if someone decides not to take a criticism and decide not to apply it to their art. But to never listen to anyone's makes them look deaf and not using the board for it's purpose and instead looking for people to stroke their egos. Please provide a specific aspect of your art you want us to look at and give our opinion on. Art critique is like eating food. Some people have different tastes and preferences. Stop taking everything so personally like damn, woman

new to this, where can i get the vilppu materials?

>>6979606
easier to understand form/movement, picture is a 2d representation of a 3d object
if you're turbo beg it doesnt really make a difference though, do whatever is easier or more comfortable for you

>>6979611
Additionally, the best way to use ic is if you aren't so dependent on other people's opinions. it's sort of like, hey I'm hitting a block and here's where i tried. It is subjective but we give advicd based on personal experience and art principles. This isn't stack overflow. Go code if you have a better time when something tells you if you're doing something wrong. With art you can never actually get an error or a failure the computer will never tell you the thing you drew is wrong. Let go of the expectation that one day it will. If you do anyways that's not an art problem that's a you problem, and indicates you work on your own self esteem.

Any good guides on female musculature for semi realistic rendering?

>>6979695
find photo reference and study it. Or get artists who do it well and study that.

You won't do it though. Most beginners are cowards who refuse to observe the world for themselves. You won't find a guide for every little thing you do, you know.

>>6979707
i wish more artists observed how muscular women look like in real life instead of just putting a girl head and boobies on bridgman musclebods

>>6979716
most artists who draw muscular women use exclusively roided and photoshopped women as reference so it's not much better.

>>6979695

Don't draw the full contour. That's the trick, you aren't supposed to draw them. This also applies to every other soft thing.

Nice construction. I'd like to see your gestures

Backgrounds, man.
I'm trying to understand how you create space and put objects within a space that is not flat, like a city or room. I don't get it. Maybe I fundamentally misunderstand perspective. Probably.

Is this true

Man i might stop drawing humans and just keep drawing animals. This is so much more fun wtf

>>6980020
Oh forgot the pic

>>6980020
Humans are very good at picking up details in other humans. It's easier to draw aesthetically pleasing animals because your brain isn't intimately familiar with what a bird is supposed to look like so you have more leeway. Same with cartoon / anime styles.

fucking shit how do i practice characters in perspective? just look up perspective pose refs? i'm so lost

I can not get a girlfriend. It's not because of my looks or my personality. I simply can't draw well enough yet for that.

>>6976967
Just started drawing <1wk ago, currently trying to build muscle memory and whatnot. However, I noticed when I try drawing things from reference my images look stretched or squished; is this just a newbie thing that gets resolved with general experience, or are there drills that I should be doing specifically to target that? I'm currently working on an image from reference using grid lines to guide me, but idk if it's better to do that or go without. Also, I'm using pencil and paper (notebook paper w/ lines which are shit, and printer paper).

>>6980285
Accuracy and observation is just something that comes with practice and time, I've seen grids being recommended as a sort of training wheel but you should gradually shrink the grid over time until you're left with just the 4 quadrants of your canvas
You could try a book like keys to drawing for specific tasks that help train your observation skills too

>>6980303
Ok good to know! I'll take a look at that book too.

Hello /beg/, would you like to draw these claws?

>>6980372
Focusing too much on contour without understanding the form and gesture of the body.
Study more figure drawing books and do some simplified anatomy (e.g morpho).

+Focus on flowing and confident lines. A lot of your shapes look clunky because they are mirrored, try more asymmetrical lines.

+ A lot of your features lack three dimensionality, practice representing them as simplified 3d forms in space

NTA but I can never understand what figure drawing books are trying to teach me.
The only thing I glean is to draw a bunch of big, flowy lines for gesture, then staple a bunch of cylinders and boxes that won't fit inside said lines because gesture and structure are entirely antithetical to each other. They all feel like you need someone there to explain wtf you're even reading.
Studying anatomy feels easy by comparison, you can just sit down and study Bridgeman or Morpho for a bit and be done with it.

Gesture has two main benefits -
1. feeling organic forms or the flow of one form to another
2. stopping your figures becoming stiff

gesture gives you a basic flow of the figure through 3d space
the gesture of the spine (lines) indicates the vertical axis of the main forms (head, ribcage. pelvis), you must use judgement and understanding of proportion and perspective to place these forms.

unfocused today, shows in gestures. Started learning anatomy, i chose morpho. going to copy his drawings, but will use skills to make my own drawings. tried an imagined scene with background and lighting, I have no experience so I think it came out bad. But I think this helps better understand the forms. I will keep trying

awesome rocks, great lines, lots of visual interest and reads really well

japs don't use gesture and still draw perfetly fine

I understand gestures for dynamic poses, but do you really have to do gesture for static ones? Half the time it's easier to just use boxes instead.

when doing gesture and drapery like hampton, what would be the next step to clean something like this up? It's from one of his videos. Would you just create another layer on top?

Any advice for drawing the body at a sideways angle?

I can draw straight on okay but I'm finding it really hard to draw it rotated

>>6980473
sorry should clarify, not completely turned sideways, just the body at a sideways angle like 45 degrees or something

>>6980480
CAN you draw a figure in profile?

>>6980473
>Any advice
drop the loomis shit and learn the Reilly method instead

>>6980464
then use boxes instead, use the tools you feel best suit the problem

>>6980473
>>6980480
that would probably be a foreshortening problem. Start with the main masses (head, ribcage, pelvis) in perspective. You will likely have to grind this for a while to build intuition

>>6980473
can you rotate a box?

>>6980504
Yeah, but I find stuff like proportions (mostly shoulder and hip widths) hard to foreshorten. I usually end up making the shoulders too wide apart

>>6980507
this is because it is hard

they do use gestures
Look at any artbook or process book for any manga, anything
The Japanese learned this in 1800's when there was a cultural exchange, one of the first to apply Western teachings to his work is Hokusai, also the guy who named modern manga as such because he published his random drawings inside among which are gestures of everyday Japanese people.
There was never a "war" among cultures, they always pushed one another into betterment by exchanging knowledge. Van Gogh did a series called Japonism in which he incorporated elements from Japan, and European influence showed up in the Japanese woodprints early on.
There is no war among artists despite what the occasional fat Marvel cuck artist tells you in attempts to sabotage how well you learn to draw.

Does pic related seems extremely 3D to you guys as well? It seems to me that I look at the picture and it's like the layers are physically placed on each other. I never felt this with other artwork.

Am I overthinking this or does it indeed stand out? If so, what is the reason for that?

what do you think about them? How would you judge her skill?

>>6980537
Google "contrast".

Been feeling down today. I can't improve by myself but I'm afraid art school will be a waste of money. Besides, I should use more references, I'm trash at drawing from imagination. I just want to get back home and draw

>>6980555

naisu studies

some morpho studies color filled with petalica paint
do you think these kind of old AI tools are cringe if used in this way? they're kinda useful to skip color filling

If it works for you is the only thing that matter, but I'm a pro AI dude, the gap to bridge is to find ways of working better with ai, I'm working in a image layering software this, using your image as example this are the results is quite poor right now.
