Alternative Art/ Stylization General - Truman Edition

[Anonymous No.3382277]

Last Thread >>3371589

>What is /ALT/?
If you're looking for a place to post your cartooning then you've found the right general. This is /ic/s 1st and only merged hub where both Eastern and Western stylization can coexist peacefully, hence the double title. However, by community demand and long history, this is favorably an Anime general.
>Rules & Guidelines
(1) Any form of cartooning is welcome; so submit and receive feedback from others. (2) Please resize your images before posting. (3) Share your knowledge and (4) Remember to not be afraid of asking for critique. Most importantly I encourage you to keep discussion at a civil level, but you're more than welcome to share your opinions.

Remember have proper posture when art-ing or you'll end up having to go to the doctor for 2 shots and a liquid pad to your back.

I used some tracing in the hip and torso area, but I couldn't rely too heavily on it since the reference was different stylistically from what I was going for. I also wanted to do different things with the arms and hands so I veered off there as well.

I've noticed some people on this board legitimately do not know the difference between the word tracing and the word copying.

Something feels disproportionate about the heads compared to the rest of their bodies.

Really like the style of the lineart. Which brushes are you using?

>>3384482
The pose feels pretty stiff. The armor is also riddled with too many details, making the whole thing look too busy. Try varying up your line weight to separate the big shapes from the details.

>>3384602
Imo you overdid the hatching in some areas and it looks like she's about to trip and fall, but other than that pretty cure. Also, next time, run your pictures through at B&W filter if you're taking photos of drawings.

Thank you. I don't really have any other methods of toning or shading with pen other than hatching, and I didn't want to fill those areas with pure black like I did with the hair/hat/jacket, but I guess I could've varied the direction of the hatching.

[Anonymous No.3385013]

>>3384888
ribcage sems kinda flat in the front, like the abs arent ijn action even though the cage is kinda leaning back, deltoid seems fine, maybe make the side that joins up with the pec a little lower to make that bridge? I really like the hand though, it has nice dimensional volume.

The jacket looks pretty good, but the way the hot pants lead into Mordred's body seamlessly is uncanny and looks cheap as shit. The cutoff also looks weird in general, kind of like she's wearing fur panties, but for some reason the coat is pointing in every possible direction. The official art can give you an idea.

Got a source for the top left picture in the OP?

[Anonymous No.3386320]

>>3385762
All the materials are all rendered the same way and makes it look like she's made out of clay. If something is made of metal, the highlights will be brighter and in a tighter area than if they were made of stone for example, and if they were made of plastic or vinyl they'd be stronger still.

And it looks like you're shading with black or colorizing a B&W picture, which makes it kinda boring despite being a nice drawing. Make a copy of the whole thing, make a gradient map going from warm to cool, and overlay it on top. Pic related is with a gradient map on it, but make sure to fix the materials first.

[Anonymous No.3386346]

>>3383460
ayy, can't really criticize your figure drawing, but I'll just throw in my two cents.

The rifle is based off the Serbian Mauser, is it?
Her hand should be placed on the grip (the part where the stock narrows near the trigger) for the rifle has no provision for a pistol grip. Also, the finger should be off the trigger, especially when running. I know gun people probably aren't the target audience, but I notice a significant population of furries on /k/, so...

YES Absolutely. We have a surplus of people who want to draw for a living, only people who know what they are doing should bother. I mean I don't care either way but still I makes me cringe thinking about taking money for something I dont know what I am doing.

ok
Her left (our right) wing is positioned such that it doesnt have room for fitting the humerus, and it seems small in comparison to the other wing.
It also looks a bit stuff in the region of the breast/pec on her left, and the forearm and wrist seems pretty forced too.
As for the face, their are alignment issues, and the horns dont really make sense in perspective. This is kind of obvious because of the hair

Still diggin it though, and im kind of jealous that you can take a drawing so far. i usually get bored after figuring out the pose lol.

Nothing wrong with drawing the same thing, but at least have APPEAL.

I also like these artists actually. Nice taste anon.
I would say you're style is leaning more towards the images on the right.

Based on your past drawing and comparing it to these images, one difference I see is that the way they define muscles: simple clean color(I don't know what I'm saying).
They do have values, don't get me wrong, but it's cleaner and doesn't try to give too much details on each muscle(I think this is the major difference compared to your drawings).

Look at how their knees and legs were colored.
And how the details of their abs are just a slight muscles. (Probably this is just my taste)

And again looking at your sketch >>3388756 and comparing it these illustrations you can see the contours are thinner. Maybe you can also try to make your lines thinner.

Just my observation though. I'm not an expert.

[Anonymous No.3388839]

He can draw 2 versions: less abs and detailed abs

Also here is my interpretation of the pose. Because of the camera angle, her right knee should be visible and pointed towards the camera(we, the observer)..

Her neck is less visible since her ribs area covers it on that angle and pose.

[Anonymous No.3388865]

>>3388859
thats a really weak redline

for one shes missing a pelvis you can tell because the belly button lines up with it and doing a curve around the waist will give u the position of the pelvis, which there are none. 2nd her left thigh is too short and the buttocks is extending too far into the thigh. and lastly the tits are too far up

also in the original drawing the legt is actually further up he just failed to draw the knee cap in, yours is going too far down and it looks wonky that way

Really you just need to study construction in general while applying it to the human form. Grab some simple posing pictures, get the line of action, make little marks for proportions while trying to remain accurate. Lay your angles for hips, shoulders, and head. Add your construction forms, then start smoothing out the figure.

Basically just study and go through the process. Your proportions will get better with time. Keep in mind that EVERYTHING has form. The most common thing symbol drawn is the eyes and the lips; just keep in mind that even these have form.

[Anonymous No.3389357]

>>3388698

>when you say that what do you mean really because I am using this as reference
I know what you're looking at but it doesn't matter you screwed up because you don't actually know how the human body works. You don't actually know how necks work. You've got a pencil neck, just randomly attached the torso just tilting at an odd angle. The art you're referencing doesn't have the greatest of necks either, it's way too long, the other girls on that picture look fine but the particular one you close to imitate. Instead of referencing someone's LoL fanart you should look up photos of how real necks work.
Also the legs on your's are all kinds of screwed up look down at your legs and tell me if you have a gap that wide. You don't, even if you stand with your legs apart you don't.
Stop referencing someone else's work and actually learn the basics, after you've learned how basic anatomy works then you can build off of it and draw characters in more interesting poses. Read some art books and practice http://www.alexhays.com/loomis/Andrew%20Loomis%20-%20Fun%20WIth%20a%20Pencil.pdf http://www.alexhays.com/loomis/Loomis%20Figure%20Draw.pdf
It doesn't matter if you only want to draw in an animelike artstyle you still need to get the basics down then you can apply the stylistic features you are going for after that.

I'm sorry it's so messy

I did some dynamic poses practice, and like how the sketch of it looked so decided to continue it. I'm actually proud of it
Now if some kind anon could destroy that pride by redlining it I'd appreciate it
