if you want some more detailed criticism:
the back of her head ends on the top of her ear, maybe it should be a bit lower
her right shoulder is larger than the left one, try to imagine a line where her spine is and to align them (and adjust it to the angle ofc)
that flower on her shirt should follow the shape of her chest, not that big of a deal, but it looks like a flat image on a curved surface.
if that curvature on the right arm was supposed to be her boob, it looks like a man's chest, you should make it lower and with a teardrop shape, even if you want to make it small. If it was supposed to be the curvature of the shirt on the arm then forget what i said.
see if this image makes sense (sorry i did this with the mouse).
But it looks cute, reminds me of smt's pixie

thanks for the criticism anon! the head and shoulders were kind of a stylistic choice because i like overexaggerating shapes, but i definitely agree that the chest looks a bit too strong/high and the flower doesn't curve with it. i guess i wasn't paying too much attention to details. but that's the kind of thing that'll make you a high level if you can just do them right without paying attention to them i guess!

Both. Beginners assume they are better than they are just because drawing just because they've spent a long time polishing several drawings that turned out well and their mothers say that they're good. People who are actually intermediate level who are trying to close the gap in skill between them and their heroes realize how large the gap actually is... and feel like beginners because of it. Or they just say that to humble brag.

>>4018891
Its a nebulous term. But I think an intermediate level artist is solidly practiced and understanding of the fundamentals, can draw most things well from observation perhaps.. but lacks a more complete and innate mastery/knowledge of the fundamentals and technique that allows them to consistently produce artwork that is asked of them or that they want to create without too much extra studying or effort in the way that a professional would.

A beginner however is still learning what the fundamentals actually are, and developing basic drawing skills.

>>4018866
Here's MY take on what the tiers should mean, feel free to chime in if you disagree.
I think that attempting to judge someone's tier based on one work is meaningless. Your tier is about your ability to produce work overall, not about the quality of any one work you produce.
To me, the definition of an intermediate is someone who can consistently and confidently create polished original works from imagination*. Yeah there's a lot of wiggle room in that definition, but I don't think I can make it much more precise than that. If you ask an intermediate to draw you X person in Y setting doing Z, they can go do it, and it'll look pretty good at the end. A beginner might be able to do it, but they might also say "I'm not good enough to do that yet" or "uh I can't get the hands in this piece right, let me go do 100 hand studies first and then maybe I'll be better at hands". An intermediate is past all that. They no longer feel the pressure to study and practice every day in order to maintain their precarious skill level. They just, "know how to draw".
A professional (assuming we're not defining "professional" as just "has an art job") is basically the same, just, better at everything. Faster, more technically impressive, more polished, greater range of styles and subjects mastered, all that jazz.
I define the beginner/intermediate line that way because it's the most important shift you'll ever go through in the art learning process, or the process of learning any other complex skill. It's an achievable level, but it'll also take you at least a couple years to get there, so it'll keep you humble and focused if you keep calling yourself a /beg/ that whole time.
*The "from imagination" part probably needs the most clarification. I don't mean literally not looking at any reference material at all, but I also don't mean copying directly from one reference. I just mean, you know, an original work that you came up with.

damn that animu lanky af, the helmet is facing us the viewers but she and the suit is facing 3/4 (need foreshadowing on the ear on the right). The clouds edges are on top of the planet. try to put more shade in the center of character unless theres an outer lightsource besides the planet (we can't tell/see)

something nitpicky is that the strokes around the edge are rounded, but the edge of canvas is squared, be mindful of consistency

Think your line here is better and you do try to make good bg, color is mostly fine for your style (try shading by warmness and not how bright or dark something is) Warm = Redder, Cooler more shade = Turn the color more blue

Huh nice, I too had that definition of /mid/. As a complete /beg/ I sometimes just tackled an obstacle and it was clear it was beyond my skill to do it. Now I'm still a /beg/ but it rarely happens, though my skill is still trash but I can represent pretty much anything I could get asked by an average person. A /mid/ being someone who just gets asked to do something and has it ready by the end of the day because he didn't need to stop and study, yep that does sound like the biggest step in someone's career.

Ok, but I want to help. Think about Dominant and submissive roles of colour. Desaturate one to let the other shine. The orange shines in this piece, but you can have the blue atmosphere bleed over the whole image to unify everything.
Keep up the good work.

I wouldn't say "by the end of the day". A pro can easily spend 20+ hours on certain pieces, even something that's in their comfort zone. But yeah, you've got the idea, /mid/ is fundamentally about making the transition from learning to executing.

>>4019085
>thinking pros don't study and practice every day
They mainly "practice" by just doing the work that they want to do, and when they study, it's again focused on learning things that will be useful to their specific work, or maybe they're just learning something for fun, like picking up a new kind of paint. It's not like a beginner who studies and practices for the sake of learning how to draw at all.
I'm a professional computer programmer, so that's where I draw my ideas from about what it's like to learn a complex skill. I just "know how to program". I'm not the world's best programmer, but I do know how to program. That skill is mine, I own it, and I'm not going to lose it barring extreme circumstances. I don't need to practice programming anymore, I just do my work and occasionally study specific things that I need or that interest me. I assume that learnig any other complex skill results in a similar experience.

I agree to an extent, but it's probably mostly because they did a really quick paint over so the contrast between the bg and the characters was lost. I think the best version would be anon's take on it but with just slightly higher overall saturation.

Honestly I think this is a crappy way to measure anything.

Beginner means you just started drawing and professional means you are earning your money with it. You can earn your money with shitty skills and you can be a hobbyist with amazing quality.

More accurately would be something like
[X] low skill - high skill
[Y] hobbyist - professional

Another thing to consider is the variety of skillsets when it comes to drawing. Concept artists, illustrators and animators might all share certain skillsets, but would you say someone who is able to do a proficient job at his respective field isn't high tier, because he is unable to do another thing? That's really silly. Measuring skill is only possible if you compare works within a confined field or art movement.

Personally I wouldn't know where to put myself in OPs tier list, probably low tier intermediate. Comparing myself to others only ever brought me bad feelings. Don't get me wrong, I have artists I'm inspired by and I aspire to, but I'm done beating myself up over things I feel I should be able to do, even though I have no interest in them. Think me naive, but I'm a believer that every artist is able to find their niché, if they work with an improvment mindset on the things they consider fun.

it's just that first of all it's extremely hard to rate art, and secondly any given person will probably in their mind rate their own art higher because they probably draw the sort of thing they really like, and if you try to down your own rating then you might look like a faggot trying to flex on legitimately worse people, which is probably worse than coming off than dunning kruger desu.

Hi anon,
I really like your painting! I would be happy to put you on the edge between intermediate mid tier and high tier. Since you haven't received any answer yet, allow me to give you some feedback.

With regards to hues and values, there are three basic ways to add contrast in an image: hue, saturation and value contrast. In general, it is desirable to have some contrast in an image, to
add points of interest, and make it more lively and interesting. If one or two types of contrast are lacking (for example the image is monochrome, with very limited colours, or very low contrast)
there are the other types to make up for it.

In your image, you have a very limited colour palette: the greens are very dominating in this image, and very close together in hue and saturation. Together with the warm reds, it makes this image
very monotone. It's all very warm. Secondly, all of the colours in the image are quite saturated. Even in the shadowy areas, the saturation is quite high. I personally think your tonal values are
good. It just feels very contrasty overall because of this high saturation.

So what I would suggest is introduce some cooler colours, some soft blues and purples, for example in the darker, shadowy areas. Secondly, reduce the saturation in certain areas, especially
in dark and background areas. finally, if you think it will fit your style, you might consider a little bit of rimlight whenever dealing with wet / shiny surfaces, besdies specular highlights, which
you have already, of course.

>> No.4020436

>>4020426
I am that anon if it wasn't easy to glance from the shifted artstyle.
I don't think it's pointless, what's pointless is saying "I am xyz" without posting your work, and rating should be given context by your own work or how you rate other things.
If you get a few different ratings of people doing that, then that should give you atleast an idea.
Standards don't matter because the ratings are relative, biases matter because it will shift ratings. If I shifted every single person up 3 "ranks" it would make no difference (except it would sound kinder).

If there's any standard to assume I think you should judge from the standpoint of a normie consumer which does no art at all.

to expand on what >>4020432 is saying, I think you should also use your values as a way to add contrast. Right now you don't have a proper hierarchy of values going on, the branch on the left is as bright as the character, if you kept the character the brightest spot in the pic, it becomes a stronger focal point.

I respectfully disagree.

- This is an artwork in a clear cartoony style. Realistic lighting and colours are not key. It's about appeal and visual communication.
- You've removed most the saturation and hue contrast. The background is now a greyish, warm blue that doesn't really make the warm oranges and reds pop.
- What were pleasant warm yellows and reds are now rather cool, making the characters a bit sickly looking.

My suggestion would be to

- keep the classic teal-orange contrast
- reduce the saturation in the background, limiting it to key areas.
- simplify some details

In general, I would advice against just posting a greyscale image, with the comment "work on your values."

- how you remove the colours matter. You can't just click 'desaturate' in Photoshop. Visual perception values matter, and won't generally appear correctly
that way.
- though values are very important, it's half-baked advice. Please also include a colour version to show how it looks with the colours fixed, because that's
what the end artwork will be, in colour. The b&w image will not show how the fixed values will work with the colours added again, which influences the
result.

i would say beg mid because its only the upper body and minimal shading so can't judge. face structure is solid except the right one, the eye further away from you supposed to be lower than the eye closer to the viewer.

i drawn something for you in mspaint. the right one might be what you try to do? honestly your right drawing doesn't even need the far away eyelash

>Right now you don't have a proper hierarchy of values going on, the branch on the left is as bright as the character, if you kept the character the brightest spot in the pic, it becomes a stronger focal point.
Hmm, I didn't think of the left branch being that bright. I might adjust it a little now.

>>4020432
Thanks for the detailed critique and paintovers, anon.
I definitely see your point about saturation. I was using lots of really desaturated colors in the past, and was told that having more saturation would make my art more appealing, but I suppose I may have swung a little too far in the opposite direction.
The hue changes you made look nice, I definitely understand what you're doing with them. Not too be too "muh style," but I feel like that's not really the look/mood I want. The look of pic related is more in line with what I wanted to accomplish with the colors, with all the really intense greens. But I'll think over what you said, I just need to let it sit for a while.
Again, thanks for the crit, it is really insightful and I genuinely appreciate it.

Tier descriptions

Beg- still learning use of shapes, no real knowledge of value or composition. Boring, simple concepts.

Int- solid knowledge of shape, value, and beginning to explore unique design. Not as creative or interesting illustrations as pro. May have pro tier knowledge of technique.

Pro- solid technical knowledge. Few flaws in value, anatomy, and perspective. Shows proficiency in executing unusual concepts with unique layouts and color palettes.

Vague but worka as a baseline

>> No.4020798

>>4020786
You are exaggerating.
>>4020769
That anatomy is pretty bonkers and the forms are very flat. It's exactly what I was afraid I would see.

I'd say Intermediate mid tier.

You have appeal, especially in your lineart, but you absolutely need to improve your visual library when it comes to characters.
Use more references and practice gesture.

I think you're definitely in medium intermediate level i think. Its good - not as bad as crabs are telling you it is.

That left eye is fucked up though so make sure you keep studying portrait drawing and anatomy and you'll be golden my guy.

You're very welcome. And thanks for replying. As I said I really do like your painting, and with this reference image you added, I can definitely see your
point. You have after all the image in your mind, so you have to pick the feedback that you think applies to you. The key is to do things consciously.

>> No.4020846

>>4020837
Right, was just warning you to be careful how much you push and exaggerate the anatomy because it can easily become too weird and unnatural looking.
>>4020832
The main issue I see with this one is that the left arm looks noticeably longer than the left and it looks awkward and unnatural. And if the legs are that long you'd probably see the left foot poking out behind the character slightly. Left horn also looks a bit too much longer than the right even when you consider foreshortening.

However everything else looks pretty good in my opinion. Good sense of movement and action, good use of value and shape to suggest the 3d forms of the figure. Perhaps put more effort into building the structure of the knees tho.

Loomis can help but isn’t really required for everyone. I’m solidly int, and most of my art peers are int/pro and none of us used those. We are much slower to progress but drawing what you like keeps you from burning out and giving it up. It took me about 6 years to reach int but I had fun the whole time and rarely studied. I just copied what I liked and referenced colors from anime and life that I enjoyed. I feel like /ic/ takes themselves too seriously at times. If you desperately want to be the best of the best, then of course you will need intense study. But if you just want casual work, or a hobby you enjoy then don’t have to focus on fundies too much. The knowledge of anatomy, colors,values ect does come with time even if you do not actively study it.

I know this is a bit off topic but just a reminder to everyone: have fun. Enjoy what you do first, and skill will come with time. It is okay to make mistakes and not spend 10 hours correcting them. Sometimes it’s better to just push out what you have, then keep going back to it and fixing it until you hate it.

The artist of this piece is Jim Murray, and it is almost certainly painted in acrylics. Even if you work on one part of the painting while another part dries, the
simple act of applying the paint will take a few hours, not counting any time spent on mixing colours, stepping back and planning next moves, adding
details, etc.

Yes, a professional artist will be able to work faster than a beginner or intermediate one, because they will be more confident, have an established workflow,
know more shortcuts to save time. But there always is a bottom limit. The act of creating a piece takes time, and the more detail there is, the more time it takes.

it is not linear, like 8h 6h 4h. More realistic would be a curve, with a set bottom limit.
