My personal Muscle Mangs Thread

[Anonymous No.2081864]

Yeah since male muscle mangs are my fetish. I'll draw some utmost shitty (at start but I will progress in a matter) art of some random muscle dudes (demons mostly cause it relevant to my interests also).
Fill free to join i guess.

[Anonymous No.2081865]

I started a new piece for anatomy (yeah right) study (okay mostly for rendering learning).
Will post progress here.

Gonna add some details of his clothes armour and weapon soon. Still I think its kind of okay for now with his body. Maybe I will add some extra details like veins or scratches and pores. Just to make it more alive.

Although it's a bit late to say this, I think the nipples are on the wrong place, on normal anatomy it would be more at the center of the pectoral muscle. The dick seems fine if you intended to depict it as being soft or only semi-erect. Besides that great anatomy, specially the muscles.

8/10 would follow on twitter/gallery.

Also really loved the OP pic, very hawt.

its not too late, nipples on a different layer so I can easily replace them. Will gladly look up to the most of the useful critique do not worry.
>>2083466
Eehhh. No thnx. I'm not into robads. Can't draw them at all actualy.
>>2083745
His whole anatomy is a piece of random crap, I know. Still would be nice to see overpaint for most of the mistakes
>>2083541
This is actually my first attempt to render like this. It is actually my first "good" art piece for like three years. Still have a work to do and things to learn.
My older rendering was a bit different (attachment is the last art that I drew one year ago).

idk, even back then your rendering was quite good, you just had a lot of issues with other aspects of the piece. Either way, seems like you've improved a lot so good job mang.

[Anonymous No.2084597]

>>2081865
Looking at OP image and the end product of the semen demon, you should work more on your draftsmanship than rendering. The drawing is a lot weaker than the painting.

[Anonymous No.2084662]

I know its way too late to say but, if he was in a free-fall he wouldn't be flexing like that ;__;

also you fixed the bicep

[Anonymous No.2084989]

>>2084597
The whole point of this image was learn new rendering at first place more than anything. And then I realised that I complete sucks at anatomy. So will study a little bit after completing this piece. As i was saying earlier - have plenty things to learn.
>>2084662
He is not flexing it he pulling ripped clothes from guy from above him. But I know the overall dynamics sucks.

Much better, specially the one on the left side. Did you reduced their size?

>>2084989
>And then I realised that I complete sucks at anatomy
No you don't, first thing you need to think when talking about anatomy is that's relative.
If you are looking for a realistic style then it's not about what looks good, it's a about what's realistic possible and there's a wide variety for that. Your style is clearly cartoonistic, so anatomy doesn't need to be as strict (it IS a big sized demon after all) and you should only really worry about making it aesthetically pleasing.

I still want a gallery or tumblr to follow your work more closely, I want to see more of that long haired guy you keep drawing.

[Anonymous No.2086474]

>>2086429
>Did you reduced their size?
Yeah I did. I clearly see mistakes after looking on my art few days later. And when people pointing them out really helps.

ALso I completely agree with second part of the post. Cartoonish style is my all. Still though would be nice to learn exact placing of muscles and their proper aligns to the body and perspective.
But if I keep drawing this stuff eventually I will get better at this.

Also I have tmblr but there is nothing I posted there only few VERY VERY old works. And my da page filled with old crap five+ years old. Last five years I was busy working on texturing and being more an Art director than artist, so I didn't develop my own skill. I was locking on developing skills of others.

Nah he's right, he is bad at anatomy and expressions. His figures are pretty stiff, too. He's just hella good at rendering.

[Anonymous No.2086963]

>>2086958
You have to understand a fair amount about said anatomy to render it well, so i wouldn't say his anatomy is bad. Maybe fairly basic, but not bad.

[Anonymous No.2086967]

>>2086963
No there's definitely some bad going on in there. He admitted it himself. And all you really need to render well is an understanding of form and value. You can understand form and value and not get anatomy, but still make something that looks close enough that most will accept it.

>>2086733
Go look in the book thread, there's a mega link with a few really good anatomy books. You should pay more attention to what muscles are on top of others and how they connect to bone.

post your art

[Anonymous No.2087308]

>>2086954
No. I coloured the grey form with dark skintone then just add some lighter spots over it.
Actually that what you talking about was my last rendering technique I rendered my last few art pieces with (when you making greyscale tone then gradient mapping it over)
(attachment such thing but unfinished)
>>2086957
Sadly I'm really bad at this shit and I really see this when I'm working on it. Need more practice.

[Anonymous No.2087500]

>>2087308
Is the dark skintone to which you're referring the darkest color in the palette that you used, or is it one of the middle tones?

Sorry for bothering you so much. I'm just really impressed by your work, and thus interested in your process.

[Anonymous No.2087511]

>>2087500
>darkest color
Yeah somewhat this. I'm using darkest colour but sometimes I'm using even more darkest colours for shading when its needed. So you can tell I'm using darkest than middle tones for backing whole form.
Still using most darkest will work as well I guess.

[Anonymous No.2087536]

>>2081864
I like your idea, some generals have gotten really stagnant as of late.

[Anonymous No.2087541]

I'm not too fond of the cartoony style, but your rendering is pretty good. you should make some tutorials. You're from Mexico i suppose?

[Anonymous No.2087596]

>>2087541
No I'm from Russia.
Also I don't know. I'm not a professional professional artist to teach someone something. I can point out on some weak point of existing art, but teaching people not my general purpose.
I am myself must learn a lot before teaching others.

[Anonymous No.2087964]

>>2087511

What's the reasoning behind this?
I always fill the object in midtone and then add shadows/highlights separately.
Always comes out looking all flat and shit, so I'll definitely try your method.

By the way, how did you learn to render so well? Any books/tutorials you can recommend?

[Anonymous No.2088368]

>>2087964
I'm not sure I understand what you trying to say.
What do you mean adding shadows\highlights separately?
I'm using tone + adding highlights and shadow if needed just in same layer with a lot of smudge tool.

[Anonymous No.2088372]

>>2087964
Also yeah. The reason why I do the colours now from the start, because when you smudging or adding new colours over existing one, this leads you to really nice colour difference within one tone. You "feel" the colour palette when you look at the art and believe in it when your eyes hook up small spots of different colours in one place. Like our skin doesn't have one colour - it have really reach palette of one tone.
(like in attachment over her body and clothes which have different colours)

You're proficient but I'm just not really digging how you render. It's borderline pillowshading as far as I'm concerned, everything is just too smooth and doesn't describe form as well as it could.

[Anonymous No.2089424]

>>2089413
I don't know what pillowshading is. As for smooth - yeah I'm not a big fan of grungy textures in rendering. still I will add more details to skin and whole art after I'll finish with compositions overall.

[Anonymous No.2089491]

>>2089424
Pillowshading is when you shade forms like they were a pillow straight on lighted by a diffuse light (basically, it means that you haven't committed to a specific lightsource). I'm not that anon, but the general lack of cast shadows (or how weak and soft they are) coupled with an absence of hue variation make your work look kinda pillowshaded.
However, it looks much better than what would normally be critiqued as pillowshaded, and if you introduced the two aforementioned things (cast shadows and hue variations) it would probably look very good, as your value control seems to be pretty nice.

And I really understand that.

I'm too old for the complementary baits.

Well that's what I'm calling a grunge - real quick paint brush strokes makes a form and light/shadows. I dont really like to DO this stuff, but I really admire the guys who pull it out though. They are truly the masters of their deals.
I'm into clear render like WoW and LoL textures (and splashes).
