Finish lying in the values before you detail. And learn to use the largest brush possible for each part. Common mistake for people that are just starting. I also hope you analized well and started off with an initial sketch to show construction as opposed to trying to replicate the picture.

Wait dude, your argument makes no sense. So first you say she looks unnatural like a fucking caricature and then you say she's something we've seen and drawn a thousand times i.e. she's natural?

I also don't think absolute, uninspired beginners are the only people that would 'cream about drawing this kind of bland "pwetty" fuckery'. That's more of what you're interested in subject-matter-wise. A more diverse artist wouldn't mind drawing more bizarre and not of the norm subjects but some artists (e.g. pin-up girl artists) would draw stuff like this.

In any case, it's decent reference and it's not like it's the only reference in the thread. If it helps you improve, if it gives you practice, then do it right?

Not that anon, but personally I'm just tired of that particular picture being constantly reposted everywhere. I get that everyone likes attractive women, but the exact same angle of the exact same female in the exact same lighting is a little nah.
There are a million more interesting images for referencing, and I'm glad this thread has them. Also, I feel like the guy who defended the image is just upset because he's attracted to the female in the photo and can't accept that not everyone feels the way he does.

There wasn't much to learn in that reference anyway:
-It's grayscale, eliminating challenges associated with color. Painting in grayscale from a colored reference would be a more useful exercise if you can already approximately copy values.

-Lights are overblown, and the two strong light sources and artificially increased contrast masks a lot of the form. Few things look like that under normal lighting conditions, and when they do, it's preferable to make one light source dominant and the other one secondary. Forms are much more readable that way.

-Crop is too tight to really glean anything from the anatomy. If the lighting were simpler, you might be able to pick out some nuances in the torso. For beginning and intermediate artists, figure studies should include the whole body.

tldr; That's an artsy photo - not one that's a suitable reference for an artist

No, no, no.
Art is not a photo of an Asian girl who does slutty cosplay.
Art is a photo of a white girl doing slutty poses.

I am just posting randomly from my fap folders.

Why are you even on /ic/?
Extreme perspective, natural pose, great detail on the flesh, both masses and colour, and resolution high enough to see it. Post production seems not to intrusive, only thing weird is the focus.
Also reminds me of

Not learning how to draw, judging by this board.
What's with this elitist attitude? I just wanted to post interesting pics. Unsurprisingly, erotica has been received the best.

>> No.1567075

I'm very guilty of a horrible reference folder. The only difference between my porn folder and my reference folders is that my porn folder has pornographic videos in them.

I am deeply ashamed. I might just start another ref folder, but the temptation to add cute girls is too damn high.

>> No.1567077

Most of these refs kind of stink. It's just beautiful girls. How would you even apply this? I feel brain rot thinking about it.

The only thing I can think of is anatomy studies maybe copy an arm? I totally get the desire to draw a girl doing a handstand split in 3/4 view. And you want to be able to draw that. But by that point, the pose is so unnatural it sucks all of the focus out of the image.

Try to stick to pictures that were intended as reference/artistic nudes or are genuinely good (full body, no photoshop, interesting pose, hi res)

I feel ya, man. Well, I don't really keep "pornography" in my reference folder. Just pics of cute girls, like girls with unnatural hair colors or girls in bikinis. Which is my preferred fap material anyway.

took me way too long, like 2 hours...
and it still looks like shit not speaking of its unfinishedness...
critique would be appreciated

It looks dead to me. But aside from that I think it came out pretty good. Don't worry about investing a 2 hours in a pic like that. I see it as accomplishment and it only will help you train your observation skills.

What reference did you use ? I feel like the right hip is a bit off and the left boob doesn't look 3D.
