/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

First, Chicocalte is based.

>>3726836
I'm happy the mobrei got picked as OP

>>3726836
oh geez
i've been lurking these threads and now i can post here.
I've had problem with coloring and shading and doing head angles. Especially teeth from different angles.
My idea of coloring is thinking of the color theory. I know i'm probably not making sense but please i need help with this

>>3726836
hope pixel art isnt heresy

>>3726799
I'm gonna just link to my past post, did I get this right or nah? I'm looking forward to see if I fixed the perspective/proportion issue or not.

>>3726878
as long as that guy in the green suit is supposed to be tall, i honestly don't see a problem with the proportioning here
that being said i didnt see previous versions. it looks good to me but i will say that you should always take another look, even when complimented or told it looks aight

>>3726871
The colors you picked aren't bad per se but depending on what you're going might not be accurate at all. In the context of a blue void being your background you can get away with a lot, but looking at the way you color it seems like you are relying too much on the theory and not enough on practical experience. Try doing a normal background during noon,dawn,dusk,night, etc, Overall though, you're doing good so just keep at it.

>>3726836
>Chicocalte
nice

>>3726878
people have perspective too. we shouldn't be looking at the girl and the man at the same level, especially when the horizon line is above the girl's head and below the man's.

Gonna dump some stuff, c&c?

2/5

First attempt speedpainting

>>3726927
why is the sunlight flying up at him?

>>3726933
Idk, I'm still learning lighting and color and not using outlines, I thought the sun was on the horizon basically, yeah I guess thats the wrong shadow huh...

>>3726902
Yeah you're right. I guess that's something I'll have to keep in mind next time, as I've already posted this to social sites so I'll take the L on this one and move on.

>>3726939
>>3726927
quoting both of these so you know that i'm referring to the desert pic

it's not a glaring error but the shadow looks nice, despite it being too bright to have a sun sitting on the horizon shining at him from that angle.

you're not too bad, friend

>>3713257
still wip
still no idea what im doing

>>3726952
rather large head for such a leggy fellow
i like it

>>3726892
something like this?
How do i make the colors more appealing?
I would like my colors to be pleasant to the eyes
Sometimes i feel like i can't trust my eyes with that

>>3726967
also how do i know where to make a soft edge or a hard edge when shading?

critique more than welcome

>>3726969
where the light directly shoots on them, make a soft edge or outline, what isn't in direct line of fire of the light source gets a hard edge, or at least a 'less soft' edge

don't take as fact like everything else u see

>>3726973
the sitting guy's butt placement isn't level with the bottom of the girl's boots. this is less of a leg pose issue and could probably be solved with lasso tools and shit

happy halloween

fortnite

>>3726836
glad 2 have u back chico <3

>>3726998
i love it

>>3726854
LMAO i didn't expect my doodle to get picked but i'm very pleased.

playing with proportion

>>3727117
interesting stuff, you got an insta?

>>3726658 #
No, YOU look.

>>3727205
nosir, im on twitter though

https://twitter.com/PheranMilam

>>3726967
lol sorry for the late reply but here's like a quick 5 minute color sketch . Fairly certain this isn't 100 percent accurate but this is closer to what a sunset would look like for this guy

>>3727209
You know she's like, 14 right? Not that 4chan would care because I know you all are into some fucked up shit.

>>3727397
oooo
nice!
what advice should i do differently next time i try to shade or color something?
I have a hard time picking the right colors
and it looks like you limited your colors and thats what i want to do with my colors.

>>3727412
She’s 18, he’s just a big guy.

>>3727454
Haha, all right man. I might draw some yoked black men later cuz that dude's proportions are so interesting.

>>3727441
Well, basically go outside and paint what you see. The biggest problem you had were that your values were too light (especially your shadows) so you tried compensating by shifting the hues very extremely, which only can change the value so much.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNB3XY67Q-I
Also try thinking about atmospheric perspective and temperature, in your's it had basically none at all. Sunsets are almost always warm in the lights which you didn't really show.

It's fucked but it exists.

>>3727477
Oh hey, you followed me on Insta thanks for that btw.

>>3727477
Is this real traditional or just a texture

>>3727481
Looks like a texture desu. If you download Kyle's megapack you can get an "add grain" brush that get a result like this.

>>3727486
Fuck Kyle

>>3727489
Just torrent his shit on cgpeers IMO. Only like 10 of the brushes in there are actually good for anything, the rest is just the same shit.

>>3727479
Thanks, I've never been a social media person but after tumblr died I've been enjoying instagram a lot. It's just simple to browse and post stuff.

>>3727481
It's Digital. I draw on Mischief and the pencil tool looks like that by default it also has some preset textures you can use for the canvas but this is the first time I'm actually using one.

>>3726871
>blue face
Is that you, StoneToss? If so, love your work

How do you draw for yourself and not for other's approval?
How do you overcome the fear of failure and disappointment?
and lastly
How do you find your own style and not be a copy of someone else?

>>3727525
Have you tried not being a fucking loser lol

Critique my ayy

>>3727525
>How do you draw for yourself and not for other's approval?
Do both.
>How do you overcome the fear of failure and disappointment?
Get more art knowledge and do more artist studies.
>How do you find your own style and not be a copy of someone else?
Become a copy of someone else and then branch off from there.

Here's a quick doodle of some fire dude.

>>3726836
who let chocolate back in?

>>3727495
>StoneToss
doubt he draws animu birds lol
I ain't him but i like his faces

>>3727579
Fixed the face a bit

>>3726992
Thanks, somehow didn't notice that at all.
Also some more progress. Pretty much the first time actually trying to properly render a drawing digitally. Anyone got any tutorials/images that might be useful?

>>3727579
Fixed the face a bit.

Drew this

>>3727724
Brian?

and I drew this

>>3727798
I don't want to be THAT guy but she looks like an ugly dude. Also...that lip and nose are just completely wrong I'd suggest getting a reference next time and studying the overlaps of the shapes in those features better next time.

>>3727726
he's actually steadily regressing it's crazy to watch

>>3727824
Wtf? No way, if that's Brian then I'm actually legit scared. Brian couldn't blend to save his life but he was actually a decent sketch artist from what I last remember of him.

>>3727831
here's another one

>>3727844
>that signature
>holy shit it's the mad man himself, anon was right
Aright, this one's a little better but I think you might have a serious problem here. You need to study female faces more because even this one looks like a dude. Also Brian, I know you know how to draw decent fucking arms, if this is some weird style bullshit you're trying to attempt then I'd recommend going back to doing more realism.

>>3727844
OMG Brian! Welcome!

>>3727209

>>3727844
>random lines = style
>actually cant draw hands
>cant draw from imagination
>butchers drawings from reference

yet still acts like a smug elitist its baffling
spends more time trying to pick up dumb normie black girls than he does drawing

A small warm up sketch. My values are looking pretty weird. Dunno if its just my computer screen or what. Hopefully i can get it together.

>>3727869
is this better?

>>3727902
Lol. Best troll ever

>>3727944
how about this

>>3726952
I like it. Much better. Reminds me of something that would make a great propoganda campaign of motivation for knights of England.

>>3727593
Slight redesign, any issues at all guys?

>>3728070
To be completely honest, I feel like the best thing that you can do right now is to just draw more. You seem to think you are a lot better then you are, but to be completely honest, your art just isn't that great. Go draw a bit more, and then maybe you can find the appealing style that people can gravitate towards. I do see some kind of style, but it's below subpar right now to say the least. Try not to get mad over what I said, I'm just giving you my two cents.

>>3728286
I want to see him grow too

>>3728070
Also by "go draw more" I'm pretty sure he means get milleage so you can refine your work, maybe today you're struggling with something but after getting milleage drawing what caused you trouble becomes automatic. Also keep posting so I can see your progress.

>>3728286
>>3728313
Cool, will do.

>>3728286
Well here's the final version. I never said I was better than any of you, just posted art here lol.

>>3728391
Whoops forgot file.
Feel free to bully.

>>3728391
different anon

you have the potential to be really great you just need to study, and draw more also try to push yourself to pick more dynamic or interesting story telling full body poses. so far I have only seen ribcage up stuff from you that is all very stiff more or less neutral looking poses. try reading some action comics or manga you like and study the poses.

>>3728399
>>3728403

Is stippling the most autistic method of shading?

I tried my hand at doing requests after some time of practice with realistic drawings. I have two pictures, one rather simple one and another I spent probably ten times more. I don't know why, but I feel like the detailed one looks a lot worse.

Posting the simple one first.

>>3728714
Here's the detailed one.

>>3728714
>>3728717
I agree the detailed one is bad. I notice a few things off about it right off the bat.
>Shading in the hair looks really odd and it looks like it has no direct light from a direction (if it's a spot light you may need to show that from the outside)
>The nose is a tiny bit off on the lining and the bottom
>Hand holding the mic is off slightly
Other than that the picture looks really good.

I'm having lots of trouble with connecting a stylized/sorta anime head with a somewhat realistic, simplified body, especially in the next/shoulder area. (Hands too, obviously, but i Need to study hand anatomy a lot more).
Got any critique or style reference?

>>3728831
Looooomis

>>3728846
Mind elaborating a bit? I mean i went through It and got the method, but now that i'm trying to stylize i'm finding It hard to apply Loomis

>>3728846
at least in head and hands loomis' head proportions (specifically how he deals with the back of the head) are kinda flawed, maybe another book would be a better recommendation? considering the loomis way is to cover what's not working with the subject's hair

>>3728954
Loomis is a garbage meme in general, his explanations are subpar and the only reason he is the standard recommendation is that it’s a free “comprehensive” resource that you can spam for 90% of beginner issues instead of wasting time.
Asaro and Bargue are orders of magnitude better for the head and especially features of the head, and Bridgman is a strictly better instructor on the body.
That’s without even looking at resources from this century.

Hello /alt/. I dont often come on here and post, but i was wondering, when would be the best time to stylize and when did you guys start?

heres a quick thing I made

>>3727043
is that a cute Muffet?

I like your style, post complete drawings tho

I don't normally draw in a cartoony way, so here is my fat labrador chilling.
What should I do for the background?

This is my second image that uses several consecutive shading levels. Hoping to try blending them with another image sometime, to work on my rendering (I mostly just do line art and single base colors with a few transparent layers of black and white for shading. I need to experiment more with color).

>>3729417
This is one of my slightly older works

>>3729210
what the fuck are you doing??

What's wrong with this?
I've been looking at it for some time and I can't tell anymore. I can't into perspective.

>>3729525

everything. and im not meme'in.are you drunk anon? everything is so half assed. i cant critique this until you attempt to draw fingers.

this good? she steps out at night but she is too pure to precious for this world

>>3729542
It's obviously not finished yet. Shit is just a sketch. I'm talking about fundamental flaws that would be easily corrected now, like proportions and foreshortening.
I'm asking before I put the real effort.

tfw you finally move on from using ms paint

>>3726836
drew a l-lewd for the first time

>>3729708
madofriend no you were supposed to be pure

>>3729525
its not as "wrong" as you're thinking. what throws me off is mostly the arm and weightless-looking butt cheeks. as for the sword arm: have it positioned more in front of her instead of at her side? not sure what's going on there.

I like this. The huge bush is a nice touch, too.

>>3729525
how can you focus on the rest of the drawing after drawing that ass? thats so distracting

I'm always fishing for advice for muh webcomic. I can't seem to get the greyscale to be as dynamic as I'd hoped. I think my approach is all wrong, but it's hard to tell.

>>3729862

Roommate went to bed so I can't draw anymore

I need to come up with a simpler design for the robot

>>3729789
your choice of colors here is much less repulsive on this one; i think the reds and whites balance the blues; I think the others are repulsive because you use green and purple

>>3729943
Bretty gud!

>>3729943
I love this so much turn it into a manga please
also give me yah blog please

ngl i think your drawings are becoming less repugnant

>>3729862
>>3729862
if you want my advice use a brighter red to really emphasize the blood and if I were doing grayscale I would use white a lot more and use much lighter grays for clothes and skin color etc, leave the dark grays for shadows and constrasting with background. your comics always look very dull because you are abusing dark values, though I have also seen some pages of yours where you do the opposite and abuse light grays. You need to balance and create contrast is what I am trying to say...

>>3729943
That's a really cool design. Makes me think of Megabyte. Do you have a blog?

>>3729865
stop focusing so much on sideways panels, its really boring and looks flat.
the facial features look ridiculous and its hilarious rather than intense or actiony.

change up your paneling more, its always extremely basic and it makes the entire page look boring, there's various ways people do panels so just try new things. but yours area essentially just big rectangles stacked on top of one another. even the first page you posted, just because its broken up in 3 diagonals doesn't mean it doesn't read as a giant rectangle. plus they're all very similarly sized which gives off a monotonous feel. which isn't what you want in action sequences. You really need to be pushing an action panel and maybe some smaller side panels to set things up.

also greyscale is really boring if everything is grey, push more white and blacks.

>>3730763
growing out of your WikiHow art style will help

In the biggest panel- should I be making her head smaller..?

>>3729862
you could always try doing studies of comic pages you like. mimic the composition and values to the best of your ability

>>3730685
the lineweights in this are hot

>>3730816
I think that size is fine, if you do go smaller i wouldn't go too much smaller.

ive been staring at this long enough to not be able to tell if it looks good or not

>>3730936
didn't mean for it to be this big

I was asking in the previous thread about styliization of male and female faces. Something in between anime and western. Got some advice, tried again. Mostly I was going for consistency of the style, also tried to not make them boring.
Sort of like what I've got.

>>3730991
If you want the actual trick to drawing men, downturn their eyes. Women have cat eyes, men have dog eyes. That's all there is to it. That's what makes men hard to draw. Making eyes not feminine is the hardest thing to learn

>>3730991
last baldie was better imo

>>3730991
Looks good, I might recommend pushing some more rectangular shapes if you want him to look more masculine. He looks like a slightly feminine bald guy atm. I have no doubts on him being a man, but he gives off that elegant male type of feel, and the soft edges with the roundness of his face pushes that too. I'd push the edges more on his jaw and around the eyes to give a more blocky feel if you want more manly.

if you're going for rich bond villain though, you nailed it.

>>3730991
How did you learn that?

>>3731004
Maybe color did this to him. Things always look better in rough lines.

>>3731010
I wouldn't bore you with the backstory, but I see, that he is not really on point for what I went for. Again, I blame the overrendering on my part. He lost sharpness of the features. I need to figure this out yet. Maybe I should add some lines, which died under the color. I've spent too much time on them already, I think I'll try some other characters.

>>3731002
This might do the trick, thanks. Although I don't want to lock myself in the certain eye/face shape. I want to develop an anime-ish but versatile style. I'm tired of sameface, that I produce.

>>3731049
Learn... what? Color? Style?
I look at the artists which I like a lot, hoard thier galleries like there is no tomorrow, download everything. Then I look at the brush strokes, colors they use, anatomy tricks etc.Some draw cool eyes, some draw splendid knees. I'm yet to find an artist who are good at collar bones though. A lot of them are always cheating, you can't learn from that.
I don't know.
I just absorb everything I like. I don't like copying, I have a bad eye for it, and somehow I'm pretty bad with photo references.
And I draw a lot. It's only a matter of visual library in your brain and practice.
I don't think it is a good advice though overall. My style is shifting sometimes, I can't get it consistent enough to my satisfaction. I'm working on it right now.

Don't learn from me.

Christmas gift for someone. Not my usual style

I'm a terrible beg, can anyone explain to me if there's a logic based on reality (exagerated of course) to those type of eyes? Not really the form cause I guess you just adapt normal eyes with less corners drawn and a more ovalish form, but I'm talking more about the pupil shading/lighting.
Any tips on other crazy sparkly anime eyes? I mean more crazy than this of course. Do they all foloow some kind of realistic idea exagerated or is there some that are made up ideas that have nothing to do with reality but still work?

>>3731125
Rule of cute.

But really depends, some are more abstract than others because extra large pupils become hard to depict properly. Typically speaking it's still shaded in such a way that theres still a darker round shape in the middle to act as a pupil.
The rest you just go ham on and find what works.

Theres less of a defined rule, especially in anime because they cut corners because actually including pupils means people are going to fuck up a lot. By ignoring pupils and sticking with vague shading you interpret it yourself, which works for anime but tends to look lower quality.

Does this look okay? I drew it like 3 days ago then yesterday i saw tons of mistakes and i had to change a good bunch of things.

>>3732555
More than okay Anon, this is actually super good

>>3732555
unironically blog?

>>3732505
finally back from instagrams huh?
missed ya

>>3732505
Looks good my brother

Drew this a few months ago

Not sure if this is even all that alternatively styled but I wanted to show /ic/ and I can't find the /beg/ if there's one up atm.

Since the draw thread is down I am just going to post here. I did a study.

>>3732734
not sure what's going on but it looks neat

Do you like this style?

>>3732854
No.

>>3729525
The hand/sword look kind of weirdly angled compared to the rest of the body but I could be wrong

>>3732555
very cute but she's an inkling now

>>3732872
How about this one?

>>3732881
No.

>>3732928
>>3732872
How about these ones?

>>3732881

Looks like something the cops would find in a serial killer case

>>3732881
What’s the lore behind the left pic?

>>3732881
I love how you show your knowledge of eyes in general being in the middle of the face or higher, and then yet constantly forcing them to the lower side of the face. Strong work. Belongs in a museum

>>3732945
anon they are baiting stop falling for it, they just want (you)s

>>3732950
i love this

>>3732951
But what if they aren't.

>>3732950
are you making a manga? or a one shot?
also blog?

>>3732953
then tell them how they can genuinely improve then stop replying to their posts because you already helped them. that's how you stop falling for bait

>>3732955
And how is one supposed to determine whether or not their posts are bait with such certainty

>>3732957
>deduction skills
>common sense
>using logical reasoning and making your own decisions
anon can you not do these things?

I'm actually looking for feedback on these drawings. Why does /ic/ not like my art?

>>3732958
No.
>>3732959
Because its the opposite of good.

>>3732959
this is pretty good I like this drawing

>>3732961
>no
i pity you

>>3732963
>he fell for it

>>3732959
it's garbage. Here's your (you).
Next

>>3732964
no thank you for falling for my bait proving my point.
your (you)'s were delicious

>>3732961
>>3732966
>its the opposite of good
>it's garbage
Elaborate a little. I need some actual second opinions with a little more depth than that.

>>3732971
Your drawings make me nauseous.
Please stop.

>>3732972
But why do they make you nauseous? That's what I need to understand.

>>3732972
it's honestly not that bad they look like they have some drawing skills under their belt they just really need to refine them and grind more

>>3732977
>Subject matter
>Shitty shapes
>Shitty anatomy
Though surprisingly you are capable of grasping perspective on big shapes but not always their parts. But in the end result is that your pictures are gross, like uncanny valley.

>>3732977
okay this one is pretty bad the one you posted before was better even it still had it's problems

Digitalfags will never understand true art

not falling for your bait anymore no more (you)s for you fuck off and grind some loomis

Looks pretty cool my man.

>>3733518

work on leg anatomy. those are disgusting.

>>3733518
This gets shit on
>>3732555
But this gets praise and an ask for a blog link

What's wrong with this bord?

>>3733627
They are afraid of competition so they try to break the good ones down early

>>3733627
Jealousy
The pink hair girl isn’t competing in the same niche, so it gets a pass because it’s non-threatening

>>3733627
shit on?

its called criticism.

>>3732879
sorry this is way better than

>>3733518
this retarded looking thing.
>crops legs
>ahh i cant draw feet fuck it

>>3732879
this has style and proportions are on point.

>>3733636
Lol.

Good one bro.

>>3733645
hahahaha stay bad bra

>>3733521
The pose itself of the foot was fone but went too fast in the end with the shadin which made it look weird, fixed it.

>>3733692
No honey the foot isnt fine,but what ever turns you on. Kek

>>3733518
Please stop posting your garbage, thank you very much.

>>3733692
I can fap to this.

How does this look so far? Trying to draw something cute for my friend for christmas

>>3733741
Jealous roastie

What do you guys think?

>>3733627
i look at >>3733518 and know that the artist is capable of doing better. a bunch of things are rendered out pretty well, but the foot is obviously not drawn with even half as much care, which pisses people off.

i look at >>3732555 and know that this is all the artist is capable of: sub par nicktoon knock-offs. theyre not going to improve past this point, and there are so many things that are unappealing/wrong with their art, that it's not worth my time (or anyone else's) to critique it. they clearly don't give a shit, so neither does anyone else. any compliments they receive actively hurts them by making them even more complacent than they already were.

/ic/ is helping >>3733518 grow and learn from their mistakes,
while stunting >>3732555

>What's wrong with this board?
it's working exactly as it should, my friend

>>3733782
resize the image asshole.

>>3733782
its pretty cute. blog?

>>3733755
>>3733692
i require blogs from these as well. twitter or NG is preferred though- for obvious reasons

>>3733786
Thank you

>>3733784
you're opinion is polluted with negligence of legitimate criticism. people like you are the reason i don't give help. stfu you stupid bitch.

>>3733786
looks good anon. only thing that bugs be is that piece of hair flipped up. it looks kinda stupid.

>>3733784
my third eye just opened

>>3733692
i like it. however, are you aiming for a looney toons lola bunny type of character? her waist and hips are a bit off putting.

gonna add some teeth doodles to this eventually

>>3733798
Not the anon but she's a one piece character

>>3733657
F U C K Y O U

Any tips on this one? I still think the proportions on her face are off but can't figure out why.

>>3733950
nose

>>3733518
I usually lurk but I just wanted to tell you I really like this. Blog?

You are actually a serial rapist.

>>3733950
The end of her nose is way too small.

>>3733790
It's part of her design, its not really my character

>>3733807
My fuck8jg metro. I didnt realise what it was at the time but cuck yeah that's awesome mad piero

>>3733950

How do you make attractive characters?

>>3733627
One has soul.
The other is souless.

>>3733518
this is fun to look at idk what the fuck you losers are on about. a full body pic and a more unique ~dynamic~ pose than a girl with one leg bent up would be cool though. blog?

Critique my work, not my lifestyle, fag.

Just wanted to leave a post here, since I don't want to make my own thread for it. I feel retarded looking back at my old samefag posts on this board I've done. I have no idea why I acted like that. (not all of them were me, but some were) I'm looking back on them and just feel embarassed at my past self. (even if only a few months) I'm going to try and be less autistic and insufferable with posting on here from now on. or just not post here anymore.

>>3734188
Have you tried not giving them anime faces? It just doesnt look right with your "style"

>>3734188
there's nothing to critique. It's beyond fixing, faggot.

>>3734189
Hey, as long as you learn, what's the harm? Your work is gorgeous, too, btw.

>>3734212
I dunno, I just don't think that 4chan is the best place for me to be honest, or just the internet in general. Well anyways glad you like my stuff, but I might take a small break from art, because I really need to think hard about some life stuff, as I've been holding it off for far too long. well I've rambled long enough now.

>>3734191
It's not anime nerd it's just japan inspired stylisation. here's one that isn't stylised drastically.

yikers

>>3734034
>>3734074
Damn, thanks anons. I didn't know the pose looked that stiff as well. What ae some good ways to get a better grasp at this? I went over Loomis and perspective gone easy some time ago but I still find a hard way combining the two. It just seems kind of a bit abstract to put the more detailed stuff into place.

I am finally enjoying my own work.
That doesn't happen often.

make a new thread before the nazi autist does

>>3734421
>>3734421
There's a new one probably by the same autist

>>3734366
This is a lot of fun. A couple things make it look lifeless up close.

The best way to add a bit more life would be to add some reflected light by the deepest shadows. Cast shadows also tend to grow more blurry the more distant they get from their source. Also consider places even less light than usual will reach, namely the armpit and inner thigh, directly below her groin. Since you were using one particular deepest tone, it's kind of hazy and blends with similarly dark areas. If you make those just a bit deeper, it will feel much more solid and volumetric. Think of how exponential curves apply to making things look round and use the same principle for shadows. Nice work on the shoulders. Although they're drawn asymmetrically, the shading is solid.

The hair also looks kind of flat, especially around the bangs. In addition to the other stuff in moderation, adding slight highlights can make it look much more round. That aside, the dark side is much brighter than the abdomen, for example. Since Rei's hair curves inward, you may wish to darken the bottom as well/instead. Consider where the hair is rooted and of what type to maintain order.

I highly recommend checking out Nekopuchi. That artist is one of the few I know of who also goes for a no-lines look and does it excellently. Keep in mind that Nekopuchi doesn't necessarily do what I've described so far, but still maintains a great sense of volume.

For the eyes, you can make highlights look more glossy by putting them in their own layer, duplicating it, then blurring the one underneath and remerging the two. That way you can get a shiny look around the edge without losing its solidity. You'll also rarely see solid black eyelashes. Most Japanese artists will do some variation of making the center dark but loosely based on color of the hair or eyes, dark, but with highlights like in hair, and with the sides fade into a reddish-orange as they grow distant from the sclera. I haven't quite pinned down a solid pattern, but there are some artists, like Houtengeki, who use all three inconsistently, so it seems to be based on the type of lighting. So long as it's not one flat black shape it's okay, though.

It's kind of hard to tell the angels are lowering the crown on Rei's head like in the original because their hands are completely obscured and the crown is just low enough that you might think it's already supposed to be on her head. The wristbands are usually also depicted closer to her wrist in official art.

As always, keep up the good work, anon. You don't want to turn into polished turd, though, so stay wary of symmetry problems like in the plug suit's design on the shoulders and beneath the breasts and the tangents in the crown.
