Alternative Art/Stylization General

[Anonymous No.4955570]

Previous >>4940839

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.
>I came for anime. Why does the image OP say cartoons general?
To distinguish from the anime study thread (janitor supported). Please post your studies there and personal work goes here.

I think you need to work out the values on that foreground foot more. The forms seem too mushy because that whole area is almost the same value. Think about your light source and then mess with them again. Same goes for his ass/crotch next to that elbow. Otherwise its pretty good.

[Anonymous No.4956316]

>>4956306
I think digital paintings are just harder to make look good honestly, your thing here would probably look great in watercolour on some fancy paper but no lie it just looks kind of shit in digital. You have to adapt your methods, it’s not because digital paintings always look bad or you lack the drawing skill. They’ve just always got this amateur look to them unless you actively avoid it, I don’t know if you get what I mean

how to fix fingers :[

[Anonymous No.4956435]

>>4956396
Well, first 3 things that come to my head here:

1. The background color. Imo the background is as much part of picture as the figure itself. In the ref, you have all this cold blue. While in your pic, it's just all a muddy white that really doesn't make the figure "pop" as much in comparison
2. It seems to me like you always use the same 2 colors for rendering skin - and they are good, but you should vary them a bit more. Here in the ref the skin has a more yellowish tint in the light areas, and there are a lot more "incidental" colors that could as well be added in, f.eg. a more pink hue on the face and a desaturated reflected light on the chest. You need to be more bold with your colors.
3. Where does one find refs like this...?

All in all, you have good brushwork, that I feel complements your sketches nicely. If I were you I'd try doing some digital studies that aim to be just 100% accurate copies of refs instead of translating them into your style - just as a learning experience.

[Anonymous No.4956450]

>>4956435
thanks, this is helpful. I didnt think it was possible to symbol draw skin but thats more or less what I'm doing. I know I should be going for accuracy but christ it's painful, Im way behind most of /ic/ in that department. I got the ref from one of the threads here a while ago

My take on the ref if you're interested. Single layer no lineart final destination - just ~100min of copying, copying, copying. I don't really feel like I learned much, but at least I had a relaxing good time - it's like doing a jigsaw puzzle or a crossword once you get used to it.

Not really, the biggest issue was that Tumblr thought they were in good company when someone believed it was a brilliant idea to merge Calarts with the original Animu threads and as a result constant bitching and moaning from snowflakes thinking they're missing a Chromosome and being offended by anything that isn't brown or not brown enough which led to artists who created content to simply leave and let the cancer eat itself.

[Anonymous No.4961307]

I changed my pressure curve and it's made a huge difference. Rendering is not that complex here, but I seriously could not get even simple, smooth gradations like this for months. Never occurred to me the problem might have been with my pressure curve until I saw a thread about it earlier. If you're having trouble painting or rendering, try messing with your settings, it might help.

>I changed my pressure curve
I'm going to let you on a little secret here. I've tampered with my pressure curve since I first got my bamboo. But recently I went back to default, because I realized it's pointless. The default settings do not fuck with your render ability. Your knowledge of the tools do.

[Anonymous No.4961334]

>>4961317
I literally could not reliably get more than three distinct values off of 0% black with my previous settings, and I don't mess with them often. Basically, light as fuck or dark as fuck, with a spotty medium light gray value in between. My setup was terrible before. I pretty much never need to go full value dark with whatever my color is, yet I was treating as if lights and darks are equally valuable. I changed the linear shape into more of a curve instead and immediately could get a range of values. It makes a difference. But yes knowledge wins in the end. Why does it have to be just one or the other?

I mean I use the tool but probably not in the way you mean? I make a flat colour layer that covers the whole character then make a different clipping group layer with each different colour I want to use. Then add clipping groups to those to add gradients with a giant airbrush. I avoid mixing colours on any layer because I like to change colours individually through the colour adjustment tool and that's easier with a different layer for each colour. SAI btw

[Anonymous No.4966272]

/beg/ here 'sorta' so I'm just going to point out some basic issues
Overall the image is a bit flat, so keep form in mind. For example, the girl on the right seems to have pointed knees and shoulders with little depth (they have length width, but not much of a third dimension.) The girl on the left has no joints. She has no indication of an elbow or ankles. It doesn't have to be super realistic, but try to show the parts through flow or form in the figure. Also the heads lack proper front and side planes. Each girl has an eye that moves too far to the side of their heads, making it flat. I'd unironically look at Loomis to get a better idea of how to put everything above into practice.

pic I'm posting kind of visualizes this. Notice the the side planes are are consistent throughout the geometric figure I drew, as well as the head on the bottom right.

proper anatomy can't be ignored either in the long run if you want a really convincing drawing.

For color, I would recommend doing color studies of pictures that have the lighting you want and then applying it to a sketch you have to the best of your ability (grayscale studies of black-and-white images are easier to start with though). This is why form is so critical, because form defines lighting and even color to a degree. Flickr has some great photos to refer to for environmental lighting.

That aside it's actually very cute art and I hope you can improve it or a future piece.
