how much are (You) gonna draw this weekend anon?

hi fellow begs

>>7753640
ZERO

>>7753640
I'm planning to draw today and probably tomorrow night. We'll see how it goes.

What happened to the dynamic sketching general?

>>7753172
Also, if anyone accuses you of pedo shit, keep in mind that adults that are short often get mislabeled as kids too. It's a coin toss really.

Fuck you and fuck your fucking threads!

>>7753659
Didn't make it into the threadpic?

I just made a twitter acc

please follow :)

I tried to do a "finished piece", and I'm not sure how it went.
Any opinions?

>>7753640
my sketchbook has only 7 pages left
I some spares from the dollar store but I am tempted to buy myself a nicer sketchbook

>>7753674
titty monster sama!

>>7753689
cheers bro
thank you for the follow

>>7753640
Draw?

anti-talent worms will really look at an artist drawing mindlessly a masterpiece half way zoomed-in with no guidelines and say it's just hours of grinding boxes

Hide and ignore, unless you're retarded.

>>7753698
this thread literally has it's own lolcow and you're telling me to ignore? ignore the only fun in this thread?

>>7753640
I'm gonna try for 16hrs+ over saturday and sunday. Should be doable since I've managed to hit more than 5 on some workdays recently.

>>7753640
As much as I can, its Thanksgiving in leafland on Monday though so I might not be able to draw as much as I want

at this point I think this is performance art, what it's trying to say is beyond me but it feels like some kind of elaborate preformance

>>7753677
Maybe the hair needs more refining?
>>7753674
Nice line control!
>>7753716
I never understood this. Doing lines for a warmup and practice and... showing them off? Hm. I do this shit on the back of shopping receipts.

>>7753720
not sure it's why that anon is doing it, but those exercises are good for building muscle/nerve strength to overcome cerebral palsy. As a child I had severely underdeveloped nerves in my hands, and therapy for it involved a lot repetitive exercises like that

lovly stuff!

do you use stabilizers

>>7753733
Subu...

>>7753790
Usually have it on 1 or 2, any more starts feeling like it's taking control away from me.
Sometimes I bump it up a little bit to do a difficult curve, but usually I just rotate the canvas instead.

>>7753636 (OP)

Depends on the brush. For sketching? No. For lineart? Says 4 on my CSP brush. When doing traditional pieces, I do not at all. (is that possible)

Read the imgur sticky on /asg/, about copying anime. They style I'm looking for is manga adjacent so it has properly convinced me to put the time into copying. Pic is quick sketch from some dude from Vinland Saga.

Anyhoo, how do you guys deal with lack of patience when drawing? Because I suffer from it a lot, find myself incapable of taking a breather when commiting pen to paper. Any advice?

>>7753841
Acrylic art. Has as close to instant gratification as one could get. I make refrigerator magnet paintings (canvases you can pick up just about anywehre that sells canvases in the US...) and can finish a painting in a few hours. Looks more elaborate than it actually is, and scratches that instant gratification itch I get from time to time.

>>7753838
Trad artists can use a mahl stick for stabilization, and there's things like french curves and ellipse guides if you need to draw very consistent, even lines very quickly (old cel animators and drafters used them a lot)

>>7753843
Yeah, Acryllic rules. But I specifically mean when it comes to line art.

Pic is acryllic art piece I've done.

>>7753829
But I want to draw...

>>7753849
Good question. I guess the best suggestion is a smaller canvas; I personally enjoy linearting.

>>7753857
You'll get 1000x more out of copying manga panels like I've seen you do already

>>7753857
Are you having actual fun? Because who knows; this could be his calling guys. Imagine how eerie it would be, arranged neatly on a canvas and displayed in a museum with no title.

Alright, it's finished, not willing to out more hours on it kek.

There was a brief moment were I was contemplating to paint comics in this acrylic style. It´s why I´m focusing on copying manga at the moment, seeing as I´m mostly inspired by them instead of western comics. Probably going have to do this because I find myself unable to to properly give my attention to my art if my art doesn´t continually give attention to me, and this frantic painting style helps tremendously with this with this problem.

Anyone know of any any comic artists or mangaka who make their art by painting, drawing on canvas size pieces of paper?

>>7754044

lmao my aphelios drawing got featured twice in two different threads, but my most recent one hasn't

I find myself always holding the facial expression of what I'm drawing, and that can affect how I feel
often it's the other way, where my facial expression forces itself onto the page, or at least the feelings behind it do

he's an aggressive, insulting schizo and an actual low IQ howie who demands support, thinking all it takes to be good at drawing is to get the golden advice. He already knows all he needs to know, but he doesn't apply himself, because of his brain damage, which leads to incorrigible lack of talent. It's hopeless and his arguments with us are annoying. Threat quality will increase when people get a break his antics.

>Redrawing some permabeg who doesnt even post his scribbles here anymore
Why? How come nobody else gets this treatment?

>>7754577
1) Because I don't want to discourage the people here who are actively trying to get better and make neat art!
2) Redrawing art helps me try o correct things that I see, so that I don't just be someone that sees what's wrong but can't back up my claims with a redline.

I mean if other people want me to redraw their stuff, then I'd do so if it looks fun enough. I see it more of an insult (even though if someone redrew my own pieces with better everything I'd be tickled pink), since I was told not to do it several times off-anon.

Do you actually need it?

>>7754699
It was to check where I fucked up because I couldn't get it right. I took one look at the 3d model head and said fuck it. I know most people trace it but I have boundaries created by my guilt conscious so

>>7754704
No no. I mean, from the bodies and lines I assume that you have some skill so I was wondering why you needed a 3d model for the head angle.

>>7754707

looks horrifying

>>7754752
please do elaborate, WHAT exactly makes it look horrifying so i can fix it :)

>>7754630
panickingkek

>>7754751
1.) I would recommend thinning the line (or lowering the opacity) of the nose bridge. It is jarring and takes away from the eyes.

2.)Do the same with the collar bone line as collar bones aren't that prominent on body types with that high of fat content.

3.) Do the same with the lines on the torso that are not the breast, dip of the belly button itself.

4.) I know this will probably alarm you but you may need to work on your toes so that they aren't comedically poorly drawn compared to the hands. Rule of thumb; give both extremities the same level of detail to make sure neither stick out from the picture. But do not go overboard.

>>7754765
thank you!! i'll do these - i'll probably increase the thickness of the bellybutton lines but otherwise thin the other lines on the torso, as well as the nose bridge. i definitely see what you mean in regards to that :) and yeah i know my toes are bad haha. nothing much i can really do abt those atp, usually my hands are just as bad but they came out OK this time. thanks for the tips!!

>>7754765
and that drawing is basically a glorified sketch; i'll be cleaning up the lines and such when i go over it again to make it look clean, i'll take your changes into account then. really appreciate the constructive crits rather than just saying "looks ass lmao"

>>7754766
No prob anon! I'm working on doing some studying of line weight importance myself and hope that my findings could help.
>>7754768
God yeah; I know the feeling of being given absolute dogshit critique so glad i could help.

autism

>>7754770
wishing you luck in your studies!! i haven't delved into that topic yet (obviously) since i just wanna focus on being able to draw the body itself competently first. i'm getting there, my torsos and hips are a lot better than what they used to be. i'm making sure not to limit myself to one bodytype (though i haven't really drawn any muscular folks...) so im more confident with different references. think im gonna add a couple halloween outfit alts to her too...

>>7754775
Thanks. Yeah, drawing different body types is really enlightening and difficult. I need to stop drawing muscular characters but it gives me an excuse to draw someone smaller so I GUESS it's not bad...?

>>7754777
i've gotten pretty comfortable with pretty much anything OTHER than muscular body types lmao. i do have an OC which is more toned but i havent drawn them in a long while....

what do you mean "hard ref"? i did use a ref for the pose, i tend to trace a mannequin over the reference then build up the shapes/lines from there, since the pose is the thing i struggle with the most.

Drawing a necromorph dog. No, I have never drawn a dog before.

I am exceptionally unhappy with the sketches I did today. I am going to call them "warmups" as a cope and try another drawing...

>>7754827
skost the petches

>>7754812
I honestly think the face is the most glaring issue. I like that you tried to turn the head, but you kind of drew the face like you would see it head on.

In general, if you're drawing a face in a 3/4 view, the eyes will not be mirrored, because we see them both from the same angle. The hind eye will also start disappearing behind the bridge of the nose the more you turn the head.

I tried moving your face to where I think it would sit on the head you drew - which seems to not only be turned to the side, but also slightly down - and redrew the hind eye. It's not fully accurate either, but hopefully it shows what I'm talking about a bit.

I don't want to. They are too poor quality, even for me.

>>7754801
Trying to make it work

get the brushy marker thing they said
step outta ur comfy zone they said

it'll b fun they said

An attempt at drawing was made

>>7754837
ahh yeah, i kinda see what you mean. i appreciate the different head angle! but i think i'll keep the angle as it is, just shift the eyes and such slightly. i think it's caused by how my head was too wide on the side in my mannequin underneath which i fixed after the fact, so it made things look a little awkward. i really struggle drawing the far eye but i'll fiddle with it some and see how it comes out!

>>7754846
No worries, I just turned it downwards, cause the silhouette looked similar to my heads in that angle. Shifting the eyes to the side will already help a ton I think

I just ate a jar of peanut butter because more energy = more drawing fuel

>>7754883
megamind head ah lookin ah

quick before bath twink firing a gun ft skinny jeans

>>7754881
I don't hate them I just feel envious at times but then I think there are probably things about me that I got good at and they didn't bc they were busy drawing while I was doing the other thing, and that they might envy that about it me while I may take it for granted. I'm happy though that at least some people get to enjoy that experience even if I'm not the one experiencing it
plus you'll get there one day, and you'll have people say you are talented even though you think the opposite. as much as there's always someone better than you at drawing, so too is there always someone worse. everyone is at different stages, and where you are is the only place you could be given the circumstances of your life and the world.

>>7754896
the sorta image they find in the drawer of the shooter after a major event (c)

>>7754902
bc nobody has ever drawn someone firing a gun before

>>7754909
It's the schizo way it's drawn. There was a /pro/ guy here last thread or so who drew an armed cyborg anime girl. I wouldn't expect that in a shooter's drawer.

>>7754912
>cyborg anime girl
>I wouldn't expect that in a shooter's drawer
That's funny af.

>>7754912
I'm not schizo, just reformed bpd and a couple other things

>>7754921
uncanny, no?

>>7754049
Anyone?

>>7754927
not really
that gun is clearly patterned after a real gun
has a demon and a skull and bones and a halo, invoking religious and deathly imagery and moral judgements
the person is starting into a mirror rather than firing, clearly thinking heavily about something
whereas my drawing is a fantasy gun, firing out of frame, with no implication of morality or any deeper conflict
the background is vague and pretty undefined, while the face is not showing any anger or malice
the only similarity is the lack of drawing skill, rather than any meaningful overlap in content outside of the basics of man with gun

Any obvious issues with the perspective or stuff? Don't have a ref to check against sadly

>>7754884
I mean, if it's only stretched then the proportions aside from width to height are still the same. The position of the eyes looks fine to me, but you could put them down a bit if you want the character to appear younger.
>>7755010
Very nice figures! I love the foreshortening on the top-right one. Also kinda looks like he's fighting with the bottom left one
>>7755178
Yeah, it's hard cause it tests what you actually know. It's really helpful to figure out what you need to work on because of that though
>>7754338
I think the only thing you need before adding lighting is the basic structure, and you don't need anything clean for that. Can always clean it up together with the lineart later
>>7754172
yeah
>>7754113
Lovely hair shape!

>>7755027
Flats. I fill in each portion depending on how large it is, lock the transparency, and continue on without coloring outside the lines. Less of an underpainting.

>>7754837
I fuck with this correction. nta Maybe having a rule of thumb to never draw things head on or turned 90% to the left/right could give things more soul.

>>7754930
World's fastest route to burnout. Seen too many artists use painterly styles for comics and scream into the void "WHY DID I FUCKING DO THAT"

>>7755042
I'd reply to everyone's post that is asking something if I could. If I ignored you, I had nothing beneficial to say. I want to help but I sleep 18 hours per day, anon. I can't be there for you all the time. I'm sorry I wasn't a good mother.

>>7755284
Lookin fire. Did you use perspective lines for the shadow too? Or did you just wing it?

>>7755284
Someone pointed out that pushing the legs back and making them even more foreshortened could help make it look less stubby. They were correct

>>7755313
>I fuck with this correction
thanks.
>never draw things head on or turned 90% to the left/right could give things more soul
You can use a straight on face or just perfectly turned by a bit to great effect. But unless you absolutely have a reason to do so, it usually just looks pretty stiff. The head has so much freedom of movement, and unless consciously kept straight, will rotate on multiple axis with every movement. If you turn your head to the left for example, your entire face will be slanted, with your chin more to the right and your forehead to the left.
>>7755319
Thanks!
I did try to do a perspective grid, but realized that I don't really know how to use it aside from just eyeballing stuff in relation to it. Maybe that is how you use it, idk.
For the most part, the shadows are just eyeballed, trying to align the lines to where I imagine the source of the light to be.

Thoughts on this gayscale? Leftmost side looks slightly fucked because of glare or something

>>7755340
That's so cool! Thank you. Adding some more interest is probably a really good idea.

>>7755360
that one wasn't mine

I get the composition examples in picrel, but to say that anyone else looking at this shit will feel the same things on a conscious or subconscious level is a little hard for my dumb dumb brain.

Worse, I could interpret this as saying if you can't relate to other people, you won't successfully evoke the emotion with your comp - And if you don't care about the emotion, don't worry about comp.

I must be misunderstanding something here, so if you can gently nudge me in the right direction (explain or give a resource), I'd appreciate it.

I'll keep this in mind. Going to make a couple of panels by painting, see how it feels.

try drawing in low res, it's very fun

>>7755558
Isn't much harder, though?

>>7755561
depends on the app you're using, ig? I used csp and a g brush with a small size, the hardest thing was getting used to the pressure because just a little bit and the line was too big but it came out cute

I've yet to find a real process that I like and stick with. I basically just wing it wherever I start drawing, that's probably a bad habit.

>>7754667
This is really good anon

>>7755074
Good. Consider varying the line width more. I like to give the larger "shapes" in the drawing thicker outlines. Start thinking about trying to maximizing the appeal of every line, as if they are individual shapes that you are sculpting.

>>7755558

I feel like you would improve a lot by just focusing on studies for a few weeks

>>7755664
maybe I will, just to change things up
studies always feel grueling though and my fragile little brain can only do so much before it sputters to a halt

>>7755666
It gets easier the more you do it, and it's probably good for your brain too since it's mentally challenging

>>7755676
>It gets easier the more you do it
lies

I'm so fucked up

All the Sora 2 animations sapped my will to live/draw, so I haven't drawn in about a week. Finally got my shit together and started drawing again yesterday.

I decided to tear myself out of my study autism and attempt drawing something without a true reference for the first time, just a pose + design reference, and the sketch is actually turning out okay.

I've never gotten this far before. Are there any obvious pose/proportion/perspective mistakes before I try to clean it up and inevitably fuck it up?

>>7755513
Why did you add guns to something that looked almost obviously like a fantasy setting

>>7755703
maybe something like that

>>7755708
NTA but who told you fantasy can't have guns?

Not a single one of you fuckers can draw nice feet looool
it's part of the "anatomy" subjetc, you know

>>7753703
I didn't do it. Only gonna be like 13 hours, I procrastinated too much

>>7755720
I'll get around to it eventually...

>>7755720
>Now everyone will shower me with feet pics to goon to
>My genious is almost frightening

>>7755720
Post your feet drawings.
pro tip: you won't.

>>7755716
With guns it makes swords less cool and you can't do that. Obviously duh.
>>7755720
Not the nicest way to ask for material for your spankbank, but this *is* the /beg/ thread. What'd you expect? They're pretty difficult to draw and most of the references fly too close to the sun (fetish).

>>7755735
BLOG RIGHT NOW

>>7755340
shaping up into a cool idea. Quite complex - I always gave up on my scenes. Hope we see it colored and polished and shit

>>7755558
how do you draw in low res? Just leaving out polish and allowing harsh pixelated lines?

>>7755744
Just make a low resolution canvas you neanderthal

>>7755720
feet are gross and therefore not my artistic priority

>>7755744
Make a canvas thats less than 800x800, select a pen (I use a g-pen), then disable alliasing. The lines should be pixelated like in my drawing and you should be good to go

>>7755775
so good.


Really need to study/practice more - the 1 drawing/day thing just isn't accelerating me at all.

>>7755816
You are right.
One artist I followed said "if you know what you drew is wrong then why arent you fixing it?"
What if my observational skills are utter dogshit? Am I wrong for relying on references so much to trace them in all but name?

Is 1000 hours of deliberate practice enough to get to pic rel level?

I have been working on sketches with certain limbs pushed forward or hidden to try and get better at different angles
>>7755787
>>7755614
>>7755106
Besides the sketchy quality is there anything glaring that I should work on?

>>7755868
if you are actually practicing effectively you could reach that level in a lot less. 1000 hours of practice is a long time.

very quick before bath study

Surprised Hat Kid

>>7755868
I've been drawing for like maybe a year and a half on and off and I could probably draw something of that level, it's just a simple portrait. you could probably get to that level in a few months of casual drawing

>ok this weekend ill lock in and draw a ton
>weekend comes and goes
>barely drew
why am I like this, how do people lock in so easily? i find art a ton of fun yet i cant seem to get addicted to it like some people art

>>7755903
who knows what causes precede their actions
we can only speculate, and blindly at that. just accept that you are where you're at, and that it's ok. the days are long, you'll find time to draw and like dad always says, a slower pace allows for greater consistency and stamina.

>>7755903
this exact thing happened to me.
I hate how pathetic I have become. I know it isn't my fault, but it is my fault to not realize and change the man they made me to be. And to not change my circumstances that'll be the end of my creativity.

>>7755892
no offense, but your art is nowhere on that level

>>7755918
I don't normally draw in that style but nothing about it looks particularly complex. maybe the hair coloring? the shapes are all pretty basic

actually kinda liking this medium even if it's a pain in the ass, my only issue is it feels very diluted
wondering if i can use a dark charcoal powder and mix it
broke me out of art block anyway
i started inking the angel and realized I think ink is too dark on it because it's so diluted

Where is the Mangafag? What program does she use?

>>7756162
Other than her head being a bit too big this is very good anon.

>>7756164
Always happens lmao. I go out of my way to make the head smaller and is always a bit too big.

Years drawing anime girls do this to a man. I can draw the faces and 3d structure of a realistic face in any angle and perspective. my heads are always a bit too big.

>>7756166
Oh yeah. I also drew this today. I was also working on this full background illustration. but still unfinished.

Is this coming along manga-ish?

>>7756170
That looks really nice. How long have you been drawing?

>>7756205
8 months

>>7756205
More than 8 months actually. most of my life. follow the correct courses and have some basic discipline and anyone normal gets on my level on 2 to 3 years.

>>7756221
>anyone normal gets on my level on 2 to 3 years
LMAO

>>7756222
NTA seems reasonable to me, terminally retarded /ic/ permabegs are not normal

>>7756224
Is more an issue of the exercises and discipline in my opinion. I'm speaking more from someone getting a real education or following a proper course down to a t. People can get stuck on a certain level because they keep training and following the same advice that does nothing to them. like, no matter how much you train anatomy I think what most artists need to actually improve is getting down to the basics and learn things like perspective or understand space and form on a fundamental level. But if anyone asks for improvement online there will always be the person to tell them to "study anatomy" because that's the standard response everyone gives.

Starting with the basics and having a strong fundamentals. solid grasp on perspective and things like that is one of the most beneficial things anyone can do to improve their artwork, it helped me a bit, people get stuck in things around that nature, not only what I'm only saying here, could be values or muddy rendering or clarity, the list goes on, anything abstract that needs a more hands on guidance and few will be able to put in to words, even gay shit like composition makes a huge difference in the final, but god save me from trying to explain this shit to anyone properly. the most outrageous things I do is my style range, but again, is not even that impressive because like seem here I do struggle with proportions.

>>7756235
>Starting with the basics and having a strong fundamentals
Literally everyone will have a different definition for fundies and turns out that it is innate shit that if you are born without you are doomed to be a permabeg?
No spatial awareness? Accuraccy? Eye for measurements? You better learn how to use designdoll and csp assets faggot.

>>7756235
your advice is very solid and it's honestly made me sit down and think about my entire approach to art

however, you've also triggered perma-beg schizo. He's going to have a meltdown over being given actual advice and probably try and bully you out of this thread so...nice seeing ya, good art too

>>7756247
It is just a question for why someone would call "fundies" what are innate skills. I am not calling every second post a nit, rat or whatever the fuck that guy says

>>7756249
oh scared the shit out of me I thought you where PBS for a sec, anyways I wouldn't really call those innate skills, they're things you can learn. I'd say my anatomy is pretty good and I had to actually sit down and learn it. that's far from innate

>>7756179
looks very cool and goonable
you are almost there
but I would add more line variation for a more manga-esque approach

>>7756237
I can give you what I consider the most basic things that you should start and why.
>line and flow control
Essential to even control the pen and be able to put shapes down properly, really visible on prebegs with their terrible lines. Line confidence does wonders to any drawing.
>perspective and space awareness
Basically the box thing, you need to understand how to draw a box in space and apply it to building constructions, and from there it kinda works like minecraft. Is basically useless to try to build a construction for a human, car, furry, fucktron robot or whatever if the construction blocks are shitty to begin, most skip both of those things and it ruins their work. is something I wish I knew when I started at 12.
>quick gestures and study of form
Again, very useful to understand the form, specially humans. and the limited time forces you to abstract and understand basics instead of just becoming a copy machine. I would 5 min to 10 min ones are the best. And yeah, you can definitly use references, design doll or whatever, but from what I seem they are always stiff and odd looking, sometimes you can totally see they been used because they never look that natural in my opinion. and is not even quicker than sketching, I can sketch any pose I want in half of the time most people would take posing their dolls exactly they they wanted. is a shortcut that costs you a lot in the long term.

And again, you are not born with those things, is a skill you develop. 3/4 of my time drawing with basically no spatial awareness and complete lack of understanding of proper perspective, I felt I was stuck no matter what I did. what really made a difference for my art to start moving again was going back the things I was ignoring and learning and applying them to what I wanted to create.

Is not easy, not fun at times, and I'm not saying is going to work 100%, but is better than always doing the same and expecting different results.

Good luck, btw. I hope this helps.

Which PBS of the 3?

You break to build him up again. He can schizo out and freak out as much as he wish. he will be a firefly to a quazar compared to my output anyway, so it does not turn me off.

Even if the chance of he listening to me is small, is not zero. maybe one day he will learn and this small seed I'm plating here will make a difference, who knows? Is worth trying anyway in my opnion.

I wanted to implement that thing I see coomer artits do where the tits do some wave stuff when extending before meeting the actual breast mass.
Mine didnt came out properly but I see your smooth approach being better.
I still have some things to see but thanks for the work on the collar anon I really struggle with the fucking thing and you have convinced me to put more detail on it.

I am using Krita and I use the ink-3 gpen at 5px trying to do my strokes as light as possible before drawing over them if I need extra thickness.
How do you do it in CSP? Everyone says Krita is dogshit for anything but painting but I love Krita and dont want to give up on it.
I also just remembered that I cant draw.

>>7756086
Been grinding heads lately but switching it up here and there with hips and birds.

>>7756284
Gotta fix where the breast sides touch the bikini corner like the previous anon suggested. The way it is now the shape reads wrong.

>>7756284
I hear good things about Krita and it must be the best free option
but if your focus is making manga, csp is unmatched in this category
It often goes on sale for ~20 bucks so it might be interesting for you.
About the lines, I used to think like you until I got some manga/doujin pages(picrel) in original resolution(~7000x5000)
and after studying them and watching some streams on the now dead pixivsketch I realized that they use large sizes in the brushes, something around 20~30 px to make thick lines instead of passing several times on the same line

Behold my very first fanart. This is unfortunately the best I can do after more than three months of drawing. My observation has reached its limit and I can't identify what's wrong with it any more. I'm proud, yet dissatisfied.

Tomorrow I return to study hell, where I belong.

right, sorry I didn't reply last thread. I don't save layers after I'm done with a drawing, so I can't show those for figs I've already posted. here's all the sketch layers I've made for a recent fig (didn't turn out that well), plus the ref on the left

I guess I've studied joeyccoco for a bit, but the only thing I picked up from him is using colored lines:(

That foot at 3 months leads me to believe you're lying or a foot fetishist

>>7756322
I don't think he's lying, footfags also consider the ankle worthy of good contours right? there must be one around to confirm.

>>7756314
I did drawabox just for line confidence and basic perspective stuff for about a week. The rest of the first month was really just doing bargue plates/studies to really dial in my observation skills. At first it was the bargue plates, but after a week or so, I just started doing studies of whatever I liked, just trying to capture it as accurately as possible.

Once I was comfortable I could draw accurately from a reference, I started spamming anatomy studies to build some confidence drawing body parts without a reference. The last few weeks I started doing full figure drawing.

I still sort of suck at poses and full bodies, so lots more figure drawing and maybe some value/color studies is on the agenda next.

>>7756302
Going to be honest with you broski. I am too retarded to understand.
>>7756303
Just hard round then? I like howthe g-pen has pointy ends.
Even then why are my lines so choppy and shitty? They dont look appealing at all.
>Buying CSP
I dont like the subscription stuff.

>>7756332
Heh, some have it so easy.

>>7756322
Not a foot fag. The sketch actually had both feet hidden beneath the water because I didn't give a shit, but after that anon went nuclear earlier today about the lack of feet, I changed the pose to include one for him.

>>7756333
>Going to be honest with you broski. I am too retarded to understand.
Nah that's on me, it was a bad example. I specifically mean the line meetings in the circles. The other anon offset them so it doesn't look like the outer breast directly curves into the bikini.

>>7756312

What a cruel world.

>>7756333
>subscription
you buy the lifetime license in the desktop ver
>why are my lines so choppy and shitty
you are trying to make the lines too perfect
see how relaxed and non committal the lines on this picrel page are
Keep in mind that the manga pages you see on the internet look smooth because they were PRINTED AND SCANNED
they are very different from the original resolution
my suggestion: unironically trace this pages to get the feeling of the thing

I drew a skeleton because spooky month.
Its a pretty simple sketch but im kinda proud of it. Is there any major feedback i should keep in mind for it even though its something so cartoony?

>>7756354
also I drew a penguin like a week ago any feedback for this one?

>>7756353
Thanks frenchie. I will have to upscale it because I was drawing in a tiny corner of the canvas (713 , 1623).
I dont get how being more careless with my lines will make them look less shittier but I will start just getting set hard round widths instead of g-pen.
Love you mang.
>>7756338
Thanks I managed to make it worse.

how do i fix this?

>>7756426
Stop being a bitch and keep drawing.

>>7756426

>>7756419
You don't know what I'm getting out of this

i dont really like the style im developing, im not even trying to develop it but everything i draw just turns out that way. what can i do?

>>7756444
nothing, you're locked in

>>7753636 (OP)
is this how you're meant to break down images?

>>7756444
1. Stop drawing in that style
2. Start drawing in another style

>>7756041
Kneaded eraser is your friend. That and a mechanical pencil. Nta but I've made sketches that clean while shitting.

how do you apply colour to something? I have no experience at all painting

>>7756445
perhaps
>>7756447
i already said im not doing it on purpose. it just turns out like that. how do i stop something im not doing consciously

>>7756450
fill flats

>>7756446
Pick a clearer reference where there’s no hair or clothing in the way.

>>7756119
Timed sketches. If you feel like a killer is breathing down your neck when you draw, it will make your base speed faster. Paindul at first, but it helps after a while.

quantitiy is def more important but its good to work on a bigger piece one in a while too

Trying something of a fish eye perspective on this drawing. It's still a sketch but I want to know how is it looking and if the body isn't looking too weird, and if the perspective is understood by the viewer

Any criticism is welcome

>>7753636 (OP)
Any advice? my bucket fill tool leaves a lot of jagged edges whenever I set my lineart lyer to multiply. I really need to know where I went wrong

Are you going to redline it or are you going to unironically "omg her poor le back" post in fucking ic out of all places?

It took me months to realize that my lines looked weird because I didn't download the wacom drivers...

1 day at a time doodle frens

I will admit I was a tinsy bit delirious writing that response
>>7756460
So the key thing to take away from this is you have to establish what your preferred method of breaking thigns down is. Boxes? Oblong shapes? Whichever it is, tracing over photos is supposed to assist you in adjusting to different heights and proportions! There isn't a "right" way, but moreso a consistent way. You're looking for consistency. Does this method of lines and circles help you in the long run? Also, lower your opacity! This one is using the method I typically use to draw humans.

>>7756555
It's not about her back. It's about how harshly the lines are cutting into the tits. I think it looks painful. Sue me.

It's that feeling of sitting on a cord for a long time and then having an indent in the titty. I see this issue also happen with stockings too. I'd recommend looking up real titties and breasts because that'd be how some of the hornier artists function.

>>7756479
ur gud at that ink brush thing.

I've been struggling with understanding how to color hair for a while now with all the highlights and strands etc. Any tips?

I wanted to give her a cool pose but it just look like she's walking. I'll come back to this when i get an idea on how to fix it

>>7756490
Looks good, eyes seems a bit weird i think? I can't really tell you why tho

>>7756684
I had a book that mentions you're supposed to view hair as a 3D shape. Can't tell which book it was, but I vaguely remember them mentioning to avoid making hair look flat, block in the shapes and add the strands in last, since they're really just there for texture on the shine spots. Still digging through my books - I'll screencap it and respond if I can find it.
