What did I fuck up this time?
Man I hate having to take photos, I have the feeling it does some light distortion to the image that I cannot notice but everyone else can.

>>3229100
Also I tried to give her small tits and some sort of corset but I think it just looks bad.
Sorry about the huge filesize but like I said phoneposting etc

From last thread.

>>3229115
blog?

Too lazy to ink but I really like drawing drapery !!
It's fun to draw the way clothes wrinkle,
I should start trying to find a way to render their textures better.

>>3229065
>I fap to candy whores
Well anon... if that's what makes you happy

nice things

im retarded and posted this in the old thread

Worked on this all night. Still struggling with color and shading. Thoughts?

Also is there a smarter/faster way to get good lines than spending 2 hours trying to do the perfect brush stroke over and over again?

>>3229319
uh I dont know where the image disappeared to

>>3229329
are you using mouse

>>3229406
No? S-should I be?

I tried

>>3229501
I like this, it's cute.

>>3229453
Touchpad?

random sketches

>>3229552
Flat chest with wide hips is top tier.

I noticed that a lot of the standing poses have the same horizon line. Might be worth trying some different angles. Good none the less.

This was eye-opening, thank you so much. I can't wait to try this.

>>3229552
your like a robot that never stops producing. I'm jealous at how you can remain so consistent with putting out your work.

More of a Tira fan, but..

gonna practice rendering w/ this

experimenting with some stuff

>>3229762

>>3229552
Nobody likes you.

>>3229580
Just curious since your lines seem to have zero variance, nothing about your skill level.

>>3229800
>assuming they're the same person

>>3229794
Nice work, I can see why anons on here comment about your faces, it's a pretty distinct style that will not appeal to everyone, but that doesn't mean it's bad. I still think overall the picture is appealing; the only thing that is very much in need of improvement are the hands.

>>3229800
Quality post right here
Now you can leave

>>3229800

>>3229820
>it's a pretty distinct style that will not appeal to everyone, but that doesn't mean it's bad.
I'm all about experimental and weird styles, but this shit is just uncanny, in truth this fucker go out of his way just to make it look more weird.

>>3229840
>in truth this fucker go out of his way just to make it look more weird.
Well if you know for a fact he does that, ok. But I don't think you do

I know for a fact that little to no people would find a character with a sexdoll face atratactive, maybe some lonely old man.
It's pretty clear for me that this style is some kind of parody, if not it's a really bad ideia try to invest time in it.
But fine, do whaterever you want to do, artistic freedom o whatever, but don't get mad when someone find something so ugly, ugly.

>>3229861
>I know for a fact that little to no people would find a character with a sexdoll face atratactive, maybe some lonely old man.
Even if this were true why is it a problem? Are you so concerned with others' opinions that your art HAS to appeal to as much people as possible?
>But fine, do whaterever you want to do, artistic freedom o whatever, but don't get mad when someone find something so ugly, ugly.
Yea everyone that disagrees with you must be the same person getting mad, right.
Please stop embarassing yourself like this, and PLEASE stop making posts like this >>3229800 that contribute absolutely nothing to the board and only go to show you're assblasted. This board doesn't need this kind of posts.

How do you turn all these studies of anatomy and figure drawing into much more stylized stuff? It's killing me.

>>3229866
>Even if this were true why is it a problem? Are you so concerned with others' opinions that your art HAS to appeal to as much people as possible?
The problem is try to defend something wrong just for the sake of trying to look like a good guy when you are fucking even more with the anon don't giving her an actual good advice.
>Yea everyone that disagrees with you must be the same person getting mad, right.

You are assuming to much, my friend, I never do posts like this much less embararassing my self.
I'm not trying to be rude or just freely attack the anon, like I said before I like diferent styles when they are actually good or acomplish their goals, but I really dont belive its the case here.

>>3229878
>something wrong
Sorry but you do not dictate what is right or wrong in art, nobody does.
>giving her an actual good advice.
I gave anon advice on what I thought needed most work, aka the hands, style is not a mistake thus I did not tell him to fix his faces, they don't need fixing because "style" doesn't need fixing, actual mistakes do.
>You are assuming to much, my friend, I never do posts like this much less embararassing my self.
Okay sorry, I just thought you were the same guy.
>I'm not trying to be rude or just freely attack the anon, like I said before I like diferent styles when they are actually good or acomplish their goals, but I really dont belive its the case here.
That is a good intention but I don't see why it would be needed.

>>3229884
>Sorry but you do not dictate what is right or wrong in art, nobody does.
When you are looking for critics in a critic board a few number of people do.
>I gave anon advice on what I thought needed most work, aka the hands, style is not a mistake thus I did not tell him to fix his faces, they don't need fixing because "style" doesn't need fixing, actual mistakes do.
Like I said, this style looks more like a "parody" them something made to be actually attractive, if that's the objective them it's fine, but in contrary there a lot wrong with it.
>That is a good intention but I don't see why it would be needed.
If you really want a tap in the back and a "good job" you should not be in this board, people came here to run away from this kind of behavior that only stagnates the growth of our own art. It can be harsh sometimes but lifes it's way worse, because it's not sincere as this board and when hit you will not be as gentle.

>>3229889
>When you are looking for critics in a critic board a few number of people do.
I meant not for style. You can critique any sort of actual errors, you can't critique style because it all comes down to personal opinions.
>Like I said, this style looks more like a "parody" them something made to be actually attractive, if that's the objective them it's fine, but in contrary there a lot wrong with it.
Opinions
>If you really want a tap in the back and a "good job" you should not be in this board
Read above. If style was an issue to be fixed, everyone's goal in art should become a human photocopy machine.

>>3229892
That's a difference between mere opinion and shitty taste.

>>3229896
Oh yeah? Let's hear it, cause last I checked both were completely subjective

>>3229900
Technical knowledge.

>>3229903
And how does that apply to style exactly?

>>3229907
Proportions, colours, shading technique, actual human faces, etc... you know, the basic.

>>3229910
I don't even know what you're trying to get at. What does this have to do with that anon's style? What exactly does he have to "fix"?
>actual human faces
Oh so anything that isn't a realistic face is bad?

>>3229794
I mean the face features itself aren't bad, they are stylized well imo. But her head looks like a bean with ears WAY to far down, the head is small and she has no chin. These low ears and lack of chin is fine in a comedy or parody, but if you at the same time go for something sexy it just clashes.
I feel like your anatomy is quite solid except maybe the wrists. The eyes and nose are good as well and the mouth I'd say is probably your trademark.
But with the small cranium she quite honestly looks retarded.
Although this might be your style, I would try to go for a normal headform at least, with chin and all. One would still recognize you if you keep the mouth.

>>3229925
Agree with the head shape, but the ears are to do with the character's head tilting up. But it is weird because the hair seems to be sitting on the head at eye level.

OP's features are cute but yeah, it's definitely how they stylize the cranium and jaw that's fucking up their style.

>>3229917
Are you the same guy as this dude >>3226307
? Stop with these strawmen !

>>3229929
>same guy
No, retard.
>strawmen
Nigger what strawman, it's you that aren't making sense
>this guy needs to fix his style cause I don't like it
Point out actual issues that need fixing, or fuck off. This guy >>3229925 is doing it right

>>3229956
>Oh so anything that isn't a realistic face is bad?
That is a strawman. An actual human face doesnt mean realistic just that it doesnt look like a 10 000 bc clay doll. Calling for realism obviously be a ridiculous claim in the fucking stylization thread.

>>3229960
So stylizing is ok but only when you like it
You could just do like the other guy I quoted and pointed out about what needed fixing instead of sperging out about his entire style

>>3229977
stylizing is okay if your "sexy woman" doesnt look like a mongoloid crossed with a zika virus child

>>3229977
>So stylizing is ok but only when you like it
also again strawmaning the fuck out of what i said

>>3229794
Don't fix anything about the face/head, fix the whole body as in make it less realistic to fit the stylization.

>>3229987
tldr "its ok when I like it"

>>3229990
You JUST said it doesn't have to be realistic, and then made an example of something you don't like, comparing it to that guy's work.

>>3230040
so you can say with confidence that out there there are a few people who are sexually attracted by a mongoloid zika cross breed? No, it objectively isnt sexy and does not fit the more realistic body. Its like anime faces on nearly photorealistic drawings, its a no go even for stylization and will always look wrong. Either make the whole drawing more fitting the parody like head or change the head.

>>3230045
>it objectively isnt sexy
You're a funny guy

>>3230050
>One can not objectively evaluate the beauty by the standard understanding of such because there might be one lone redneck that likes to procreate with burn victims. Thus rendering your criticism of the beauty of the picture not being generally sexy as invalid!

Yeah no, the face looks retarded and wont ever not look retarded other than to a very specific group of autists.

>>3230059
>>One can not objectively evaluate the beauty by the standard understanding of such because there might be one lone redneck that likes to procreate with burn victims. Thus rendering your criticism of the beauty of the picture not being generally sexy as invalid!

Well, a lot, my arrogant boy. Here, I just move some things arround and erase some lines to simplify better, basiclly I did what >>3229925 sayed and readjusted the places of the elements of the face. Same style, a lot more appealing.

>>3230277
Also, I can do that all day if you want to.

Thoughts?

>>3230438
More hue variation. Even just throwing in some reds will help.

>>3230491
Blog?

>>3230316
your girls are unappealing and nobody like you.
>>3230222
same for you. nobody likes you thats why you left the server.

>>3230491
Those hips are too close to the rib cage, you're pushing too hard for a THICC aesthetic but falling short because of lack of execution. Other than that I like it, and I love the shark.

>>3230494
don't have one
>>3230522
I'll pay more attention to proportions, thank you senpai

One day I wanna get to the level where people get into full arguments over my style.

>>3229816
That was because I thought the pencil tool would make the lines look cleaner, instead of using a tiny brush.

Also, at the time I didn't know line thickness mattered.

>>3230520
no I left because people who aren't good at drawing were talking like they were experts.

>>3230601
That's a good enough reason to leave /ic/ itself, to be honest. What the hell are any of us even doing here?

>>3230619
that feel when your fed up trying to draw cute animu, and resort to trying to buy cute things with real money to compensate for lack in art skills. Feels fucking bad man.

>>3229875
Look at how your favorite artists do it. If you're asking dumbass questions like this though, you're probably /beg/ tier trash.

I don't think tits start up that high, anon.

I come here for the memes and ignore/do the opposite of all advice given lol you fuckers just lol

>>3230603
I stay for the few but significant decent advice I get around here. Plus this community is like home to me honestly.

h-how is it so far?

>>3230151
That's me

>>3230601
no its more like your skill level is not where you think it is, your shit is just as below average as the rest. not to mention your negligence got the better of you and thats why you left, you refuse to improve and thats your fault. take the crits and stop being a little pussy.

>>3231113
god your art is such a load of shit. hope that /ic/ popularity is all you ever want to achieve with it.

Tried some simple pencil work.

>>3231113
Wow that looks good
better than mine

>>3231136
give critique please

>>3231142
Good i think u should use more contrast though and shade the darkers regions and lines more

>>3231033
Cute

>>3230828
Really nice lines! I love this so much

>>3230815
I cant tell what youre going for but i like the girl on the top right

>>3230491
Wow I love the brush you used

>>3230438
Like the other non said hue variation, also I think you should get rid of the textures and especially color the lines!!

>>3230316
I like it

>>3230175
Color the lines :) and I think you should use more subtle hues also the best could use shading and the belt buckle doesn't really look metallic

>>3230172

Nice but the neck is a bit long and her head a bit too small

>>3229552
nice i love sketches like this and i like the poses and faces

>>3229501
could use line variation

>>3229329
I think you should try shading it differently.

>>3229306
Awesome concept but the perspective is wonky

>>3229301
Amazing, I love stuff like this.

>>3229198
Also amazing and cute but I think the FUCK sweater is a little bit unwholesome haha

>>3229115
cool but you should paint over the lines and her boobies look a little small lol

>>3229100
i like the face but the left eye is too small :)

>>3231154
so nice

I'm almost there w him. Hard time rendering around the linework in the neck.

>>3230976
never EVER post something that lewd on esforce again you piece of... off... of fr*ck!!!!!!!!

>>3231286
If you're referring to the dark lines, I run it through some brightness/contrast curve filters to make it as close to lineart as possible.

>>3231301
could you not, it looks like shit

>>3231113
arms too damn long

Thoughts on this one? Hopefully abit of advice and some positives about it. Designing OCs can be hellish af

I just finished this. Could I get some feedback on it? I know I screwed up the anatomy on the rhino thing and it looks like garbage, but I already spent hours failing to fix it so I settled on whatever looked decent enough. I really need help with shading because I'm just winging it and don't really understand it, and I feel like the anatomy on the girl is a little off as well. Any critiques or tips are well appreciated!

Man, if I wanted this level of cringe, I'd just go browse DA.

>>3231887
I know man, looking through some of these drawings makes me feel like I'm looking at a beg thread.

>>3231097
Actually, the hands are perfectly fine even if they're on the thicker end. Her head, on the other hand, is just ridiculously small.

>>3231524
fucking epic

I really fucking enjoy the effect of "simple" hatching. Like 1-3 layers tops.

Anyone or anything I should watch or study to get a better feel for it? Have a chinchilla pic I saved for your troubles.

I don't really know how to depict that "chaotic evil" expression. Also I know the left arm/hand makes no sense but I'll fix it later.

And to that other anon who hates my sketch filters, I hope you're fucking happy.

playing with saturation. If the saturation burns your eyes tell me. I will like to know so I understand more about color and graphic shapes.

I call it Waifu fight.lol

>>3232143
Needs a lot more refinement, but I like the color scheme and composition

>>3232144
I know anon. need to keep working on it but I need to jump to the next study.

Maybe later I will upload the final piece.

>>3232142
My point still stands.

How do I draw hands like you?

It's messy I know

Did you give up on the other thing

>>3229301
I really like these trippy trinkets. Kinda reminds of someone doing a vase a day for july this year.

>>3232142
You're such a fucking faggot. I'm not "memeing" look at the post times faggot.

>>3232165
Try emulating those hands with your own.
Oh, you say your knuckles don't line up that way?
Go back to drawing hands from life before asking this question again.

>>3232168
I haven't been too productive working alone, I think I just don't have the correct work ethic yet; so I got myself another contract work storyboarding. Things are weird with me rn

Shouldn't the hands be pressed against the skirt? Floating like that makes it look unnatural given the pose. Still pretty cute

gonna move on :(
>>3231154
>>3231913
it's always either the hands or the head. lol

lol

>>3232243
You've got to finish something some time man. The soul calibur art is much appreciated btw rock on senpai. However her skirt cuts off her thighs/hips where it should be sitting on top of them. Construct your body before you put clothes on it and this will stop happening. Also practice anatomy a little more, you need to make sure your skeleton is solid, it's a little bit broken. Also do some gesture, it'll do you good.

>>3232249
I honestly expect you to land a gig at some big animation studio or whatever you're aiming for.

>>3232251
I'll finish something eventually. haha.
Severely out of practice, tbqh. Still thinking a bit in 2 dimensions and I tend to rush into rendering when things are still broken. Bad habits die hard.

>>3232255
Ah okay. Then plan on making something that you will finish, even if it's not amazing you should still be practicing the process you go through for every drawing.

Thumbnails first, fix the composition and gesture up. Do color studies, block things in and find your color palette. When you find something you like then you gather any references and books you may need for things you don't understand, work out a sketch, fix your anatomy the best you can, then go on to your line art (keep it clean, even if you paint over it you should still use it), block in your midtone colors at 100% opacity, then block in your shadows/highlights, and after that you should render and detail. Make sure the whole picture progresses at the same time (you're not rendering one piece while another piece is in sketch stage, for example).

The only way to fix being severely out of practice is just muscle through it and practice anyways. Always work on one piece that you are trying to get to a finishing point, even if you're doing other studies. The process of going through a painting and finishing it up is essential if you want to make good shit some day.

Keep it up man. By the way you are definitely on the right track with your progress and I can see you're great at rendering and you do have a good amount of the process down (lineart color blocking and rendering) they're just all out of order. You just need to stick to it and really flesh it out. By the way collarbones are not that straight.

Keep at it. Even if it looks like shit to you after you've finished, that's okay. Learn from your mistakes and don't make the same ones on the next piece you do. Art is hard but you're on your way to being great if you just practice your ass off. Don't get lazy and give up.

>>3232191
Dude, your posts gave me hope that if i post something and someone posts "just stop" or "its shit" , i can ignore them, because even you get these answers and at the same time admirer. Because lets be honest your drawings arent shit.

made my mom a birthday card, she had this painting by Monet hanging in our house and I added our cat into it.

>>3232306
Stylistically Cute/nice to look at

>>3232285
Holy shit dude can you seriously stop sucking him off? When I came here I honestly thought the majority of people here were actually here to "critique" art, not lead others into thinking they are good when they are not, and stunting their growth.

>>3232312
would be nice if anyone here actually said anything useful to this guy instead of 'it's good' or 'it's shit' desu senpai but that's ic for you

>>3229301
Sick lines, dude

>>3232306
Quite nice

>>3232306
I really love this. Very thoughtful of you, too, anon. I would feel blessed if I were your mother.

Sorry for the shitty quality, my phone camera isn't cooperating today. Does the perspective look right here?

>>3232285
Damn, you're too kind. Thanks for making my week, anon.

>>3232312
Keep in mind that we're asking for crits on an anonymous image board, so you really shouldn't be expecting anything here. Also, any comment I get isn't going to "stunt my growth." I draw for the love of drawing, not for other's approval.

>>3232395
Just realized the ears could be fixed.

low effort

>>3232395
I would move that head further down into the torso, since I assume you're trying to do a stumpy character. right now it only looks like a normal guy with an oval for a body, maybe look at chubby guys more. anyways your stuff is nice.

Thanks

>>3232694
Head needs more space in the back, features perspective differs from the face, they also look a bit plain

>>3232777
i think the nose is actually alittle too small this time.
nice Trips

>>3232900
Thanks, I will fix it next time

is this salvageable at all? I can't even figure out where my vanishing points are..

>>3232981
I may redline this when I can, but right off the bat you can redraw the left leg to make it align with the same plane as the right leg. Depending on how much of it you want to fix, you can also readjust his(?) figure to give off a more dynamic pose through pushing out the ribcage, tilting the head up/down, stretching the neck (or bending it depending on how you want the pose to look), and have the arms less stiff through giving them a bit of curvature (such as having them stretch closer to the horizon). But it's honestly fine how it is barring the left leg, just a matter of how much flair you want to add to your drawing.

I like the overall flow & theme of the sketch,though. The perspective gives an excellent touch. Would like to see it finished.

>>3233114
>But it's honestly fine how it is barring the left leg

I meant "it's honestly fine the way it is minus the left leg."

>>3233114
>>3233121
Thank you for this! About the left leg, is it stage left?
I will try and make everything less stiff, the arms are especially bothering me. Please feel free to redline it if you want. It is also male. I'm trying to draw Beat from Jet Set Radio, and I intend on coloring

Something i whipped together for an OC contest. I dont normally try to make cute characters but id say i gave it a decent attempt.

>>3232466
I wanna see a finished work from you!

Haven't posted in awhile, good to see you all again.

been a while

>>3233396
Incredible.

>>3232714
How do you work on face appeal?

>>3233652
look up appealing stylized faces that attract your eyes and question why they interest you, use those questions/answers to help guide you through on what to work on.

>>3232348
something about your all one line width is appealing

>>3233396
blog?

>>3233388
Cute.

i was rewatching soul eater the other day for the sake of nostalgia

>>3233363

>>3234048

No need to justify it with nostalgia. The show is awesome. Great drawing of Soul.

Aw shit it's you, I've always loved your stuff.

I've been staring at this all night and kept trying to fix the fur/neck to make it look like he's looking up. I can't tell if it looks right or not anymore.

>>3232466
Funny you mentioned that. I only recently learned that you can't just slap blobs on a skinny figure and call it a day.

>>3234436
what is this supposed to be? Racoon fat man? Seriously. Do you have a fetish for fat racoon furries. This is like the most retarded thing I've ever seen. I hate furries, although I've unfortunately come across some at some point in my life, but the furries that you do just leave a sour godawful taste in my mouth.

>>3234436
garbage

>>3234427
>NTR enthusiast

>>3234436
lmao trust /ic/ to be helpful. anyway the perspective looks right to me, it helps that you shaded the neck so the head stands out more. it'll also help the perspective when you render the b/g more to give him more presence.

>>3234436
Just wondering, is this a character from Housamo?

>>3233396
God i totally forgot about you and your incredible colors. Ill bookmark your tumblr man, way too pretty not to.

>>3233311
So do I anon, so do I.

>>3233396
nice

>>3234500
>Do you have a fetish for fat raccoon furries?
Probably.

>>3234567
Yeah, I'm hoping once I flesh out the BG it'll look fine.

>>3234572
Morenatsu, but it's not every day someone brings up Housamo so kudos to you.

>>3234500
post work

>>3231154
>I cant tell what youre going for but i like the girl on the top right
thanks. just a bunch of doodles

>>3234724
if your gonna post a pic, post one that doesn't involve furries, you degenerate furfag.

>>3234708
see that itself is not a bad example you're posting there yourself, arms, hips, armpit fat, tits and belly are all things to consider when drawing a fat character, make them slope downwards to inply weight and softness. Also fuck these anons shittalking about >muh furry, focusing on one thing isn't that wrong, look at rinfag.
maybe learn thing seperately before tackling a complex pic, perspective first and anatomy later.

>>3234048
i disagree with tophead.

>>3234895
glad you left the server so i dont have to see this garbage. can you leave ic too?

>>3234940

>>3234895
nice

how about the toxic lurker that is you leaves ic huh ? How bout that MR crabs

>>3234940
never

>>3234950
gglad to hear

So how can I into my own style? I mean do I have to come up with it or is it something that will just be there once I'll stop copying other mangakas and start drawing cute girls of my own?

>>3234940
savage

>>3234981
Your "style" is typically going to be a collection of influences from many people and stuff you pick up along the way. Naturally, if you just copy one person you'll always be an inferior ripoff, and if you immediately try to push or create your own "style" out of nowhere it'll always be shit.

The lesson here is to rip off as many different people as possible and ignore consciously trying to create and force your own "style", because as you get better that'll happen automatically and unconsciously.

>>3234990
Yeah, that's more or less how I feel about it, I just needed some confirmation. Thanks anon.

>you will never be get good at drawning or anything else
just kill me

The absolute state of /ic/

>>3235035
I'm not even part of this argument. I just genuinely like the art that's all. It's somewhat rare to find something like this among all the trash sometimes posted here.

>>3235040
Just stop posting.

Any recommendations of anime that does noses (and smaller eyes) in a slightly more realistic/detailed style? I can't handle the triangle nose and gigantic eyes when it comes to my own work. The way most anime approaches figures though is great.

I would say things like Ghost in the Shell, Vampire D Bloodlust, Ninja Scroll, Cowboy Bebop (mostly spike and jet) have good examples of what I am talking about but I'm sure theres more obscure examples to be found.

>>3235049
try memories and planetes

>>3232981
Basic lineart of this. Crit, please? I feel like I especially need help with this right shoulder/arm?

>>3235049
Try the Monogatari series.

>>3235063
Is this a ruse? Monogatari series has generic big eyes and dot noses/side profile triangle noses apart from very rare gag/serious angles.

>>3235060
Your mate's missing a muscle or two around the shoulder/neck region.

>>3235089
>dot nose
Not really, nope. Also, give some example pictures of these "triangle noses" and noses you'd prefer instead. Also I'm not sure what you consider normal sized eyes if Monogatari eyes are "generic big eyes" to you. I hope you never encounter any shoujo for example.

Just wanted to say I love you all and I hope you guys have an art-tastic week

Good stuff

>>3234940
When are you going to leave? Also post your work.

>>3235106
Sure. I'm not criticizing monogatari or the simplified style of nose and round/bigger eyes on the left in the picture, just looking for more examples of faces like on the right.

>>3235141
Whoops forgot image.

>>3235133
Coomie you outdid yourself yet again. Love how you rendered the lollies and fries.

>>3235139
two pictures don't belong there.

>>3235143

>only 4 pages past where I drew before the redraw
>it's been a year since I started this thing
>Everything about the redraw is slightly off and I already have the urge to redraw it again
I won't, I'll just have to live with the dishonor on my family

>>3235175
peak masculine head right there, this is what loomis studied from to become what he is now

>>3234436
I fixed some of the anatomical issues but I kinda got lost with the coloring and lighting. Not to mention he has weird teddy bear fur that's too late to fix but I'm pretty satisfied overall.

>>3235049
like this?

>>3235307
Whups, fixed the color scheme.

>>3235347
Whoa! This is super nice, gj. Love the slight glowy/color change (idk how to say it) effect on the outline of the character.

working on new character concept recently.

>>3235498
took me a moment but is this the monkey king?
also 僧 is the male name for monks, 尼(ni) is for females, I don't know if you're trying to stress the manliness or not so take it as you will.
>that crossover between a skirt and a shirt

let me guess, youre not a faggot?

Wip.

>>3235612
why the fuck would i want to join a discord server when the main benefit of posting on /ic/ is posting embarrassingly bad artwork without it being traced back to me because it's anonymous

also discord image embedding/compression is shit and inferior to an actual *image*board

>>3235670
>>3235670
Yeah, I tried.

wip, i gotta wake up early tomorrow so might finish on the train.
>>3235901
aint bad man
maybe shrink the hands a bit next time? or draw them blockier to make it seem actually stylized.

>>3235938
I was thinking in shrink the hands but I was afraid it would look like that in the end.

>>3235513

I wasn't going for monkey king, but now you mentioned it , it does fit where she is in the story, so I will probably add that to her motif in the future. I might even give her real name as Wang Mei Hou , which would be a good pun for that motif.

"尼姑" are nuns. From my experience they are not often known to practice martial arts except for the special ninja temptress nuns from the certain sengoku mangas.

Using "monk" as her name have more to do with the fact that she is suppose to be a master pugilist.

>>3236197
can you draw miku plsss, ill draw w/e you want in return

>>3236197
YES, BACK TO YOUR ROOTS

>>3235441
Thanks! Apparently it's called reflected light. Unfortunately, I initially had the background and the reflected light green so I had to muck around with filters to make the colors look better, so now he looks very glowy.

>>3235626
same tbqh

>>3236237
reflected light has a lot of names. bounce light and indirect light are some off the top of my head

>>3236197

You should do more lineart. Your contours look better with lines.

Any advice on how I could further improve this line art before I clean up some more and start rendering?

I feel like there's something funky going on with the waist/hips that's making the legs look a bit off, and I have no idea how to draw nice looking, flowing clothing, so the robes ended up a bit droopy and over-designed...

Any comments are greatly appreciated.

>>3236467
unironically kill yourself

>>3236520
This looks really good, what helped you learn to draw anime faces and hair so well?

>>3236467
why do you even keep coming here when you know youre gonna get shit on?

>>3236520
Sorry for using a nekkid man but your shoulders and head imply a different pose than the chest down. You're basically making everything else flat when they should be in line with the shoulders since it looks like you're going for a more angled perspective. Same can go for the eyes.

>>3236520
Oh, and as for the clothes, you nailed them but with the wrong intentions. This is a good starting point to exaggerate things and go against the usual physics of clothes, namely having them defy gravity a bit and give them structure of their own so they add to the dynamics of the rest of the pose.

>>3230601
No, you left because you're a gigantic faggot who can't ever take criticism. You had an excuse for every piece of advice someone bothered to give you on that server, and never acknowledged anything. Your head is way too far up your ass from all the anons sucking your dick (implying they're actually a thing and it isn't just you samefagging like you've admitted before, because you're just that pathetic) which is probably why you never take criticism.
"T-They were talking like they were experts and they're not!!!!!" Guess what, asshole, you don't need to have the skills of the old masters to give a valid critique. Just like how you don't have to be a professional director to critique a movie. Some people have their eyes more developed than their skill, but that's something dunning kruggers like yourself will never understand. If you're going to blatantly disregard critiques do it because they're bullshit and make no sense after you've given them some thought, not because the person who's giving it to you it's not an "expert" or "professional". Their critique on your values was spot on, please stop trying to paint, if your drawings are awful, your color is hideous and beyond help.

I'm glad you retired to your own server/fan club, since all you ever want is praise for your lazy, unsightly attempts at drawing. Do everyone a favor and never get out of there.

>>3231007
Cringe. Please leave your namefaggotory in the server, no one in here cares.

I kinda disagree with this. The character is very stylized in the source material and that face is very accurate.
