/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

If I was looking to commission some art for a porn game would this be the place to find someone? Or would I be better looking into deviantart or something?

>>4059809
You look in all the pleaces. Here you will find guys posting some wips, some finished works, some sketches, so could be, or could be not. You can find porn artist anywere. Newgrounds and hentaifoundry are solid options and more easy to search than deviantart

>>4059815
also in newgrounds you can search games in the description they put the artist that made the visuals, even if they have an newgrounds account they appear in a column in the left side, so you can easily find the guys with more experience in work for games, if you want more professional work

The colors are a bit harsh

well gain another one mah boi

I think the helmet came out better this time.

>>4060206
its hard because i lose interest in everything i draw like halfway through im not sure whats wrong with my brain

>>4060208
no no, i mean you gained another one with me brah and don't worry dude, your are so talented and skilled, just keep posting bro, soon or later those followers will start to increase

>>4059866
I think it would look better if you stopped using the airbrush tool or whatever soft brush you're using to render too much. Try adding more hard edges with the hard round brush or something.

>>4060213
hey thanks

hey can i steal this idea

beg question, how did you start off learning to draw/paint so good?

>>4060429
I didn't invent autofellatio so go ahead haha

What character are you making suck his own dick?

>>4060479
>learn some fucking values

I honestly cant tell if you're telling me to make more wholesome porn or to add more weight to my colors with harder brushes. I'll assume it's both.

>>4060146
Cool. Render it softly and personally I'd slim down her hamstrings a bit, a lot of Gwen's appeal comes from her lean, slender figure.

>>4061069
Lovely expressive work!

>>4061069
the feet would look a lot better without the lines, right now they just look kind of gross?
Something about his visible arm is bothering me, I assume the perspective is a little off.

Christ, half of this stuff is worse than anything posted in beg. Lazy, unfinished chicken scratch linework, terrible sense of lighting, no sense of form or perspective, values airbrushed and given no second thought, awful color choices, etc.

Porn art literally the refuge of artists who's neuroplasticity is past their prime, or minds so thoroughly rotted after years of excessive masturbation since a young age.

anon you're quality

>>4062385
What fundies or learning materials do you recommend overall?

I'm trying to make a porn sort of games. I thought I could handle working by myself until I hit a wall: I'm no artist, like at all, I can't draw for shit, and I could try, but I'm desperate for art, plus, my idea was trying to make art for my own game ideas. While the coding is going smooth for all my game ideas, when I attempted to make art for them all attempts went simply horrible.

As so, I'm dealing with a kind of life and death situation here. I decided to bet everything into this game and wanted to go to patreon to make a living designing the games I always wanted to. But well, this happened.

So my request is simply, since it's against the rules of the board to ask for free art, I actually would want to propose a partnership with an artist to work in any of my games, most likely the VN since it's easier to code and it's almost done, so we can start a patreon and split the money evenly during the duration of that project, with a contract and yada yada, I don't ask a lot, I just need enough money to pay the rent in the meantime and hopefully it can be profitable for both of us.

Since the games all lean towards NSFW at some points in their history, some of them being outright smut, then I thought this thread was appropriated.

Here's the discord channel I made for the games I have in mind.
https://discord.gg/KESwTn

This is the game concept so far.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/12_Lxzt-ayYvlW_EOB-HliH76BL9k7dginzyC3WjC6Mc/edit?usp=sharing
I'm working with placeholders at the moment. Kinda shitty, but the game structure, like the code and dialogue are almost done. Pic related.

I hope this post doesn't break any rules. I genuinely just want to make games and don't be homeless, and I want anyone involved to benefit from it, because regardless, asking for free art sucks. Any suggestion for the character design is really appreciated, but the story is mostly done, but can be changed depending on how hard it can be.

>>4062863
Any resources that teach fundamentals can help. Try as many as possible and find the one that clicks with you.
What helped me most was Loomis' Successful Drawing and Scott Robertson's How to Draw.
Also studying artworks you like and styles you want to achieve, but never forget to focus on fundamentals, cause by learning those makes you understand the process behind the art you want to study.

>>4062900
Just noticed the invitation expired.
https://discord.gg/6c9AURk

Also, here is the general concept of one of my games which I want to be a metroidvania the vein of FoBS and Eroico with evident Inspiration from SOTN. The game is already being worked in Godot. But as you can see, I can't barely make Pixel Art. At least detailed enough for it to be the /ss/ game I want it to be.
General concept and ideas:

>>4062900
>>4062930
That's a lot of words for saying you want free art. Get fucked no one is gonna work on your inane shit out of goodwill just so you can earn some money
>But I will pay you later pinky promise!
HAHAHAHAHAHA

>>4062990
You missed this part
>with a contract and yada yada
As I said, I'm proposing a partnership because asking for free art is shit. If you work under a contract I'm actually obliged to pay you your share.

I'm not just jumping into game development out of the blue, and after problems like the Breeding Season disaster the contract is beneficial for me and any artist that want to sign in.

>>4063022
Yeah I'm sure your contract from bumfuckistan is gonna hold. Good luck with your shitty scam.

>>4063044
Thanks. And it will. If something, I'm risking you can give false information and not deliver.

Doodle. Anatomy probably all wrong. Thought it was kinda cute.

>>4063305
Pretty cute indeed, anon. What (software) do you use to draw?

>>4062452
thank you. Funny enough I find actual sex to be the least interesting aspect of porn so i dont draw much of it outside of commissions

I wanted to try NSFW and it was actually okay, doing things more loosely in sketch process was good too. Once I learn more anatomy/perspective I'll be able to do more than floaty dicks in the future.

>>4063049
How are you risking if you are not paying?

trying to step my game up

>>4062385
It genuinely hurts realizing how much better you are than me. I guess that's the difference between knowing fundamentals and bullshitting your way through it.

If anybody has resources to unfuck myself I'd appreciate it.

>>4063663
Are you French?

>>4063684
no, why ?

>>4063613
Focus more on muscles man, those thighs are just organic shapes that are close enough to the uninitiated.

>>4063756
i know :(

>>4063617
You are exaggerating. I can see you understand perspective and form. All you need is more practice. If I was you I would focus on doing quick gesture studies using references to improve your line confidence and build your visual library.
You can achieve this only by grinding, and probably focusing on anatomy and proportions when you do so.
Then there's values and color theory, but those are a completely different beast.

For gesture study try this: https://www.quickposes.com/en/gestures/timed
For anatomy and proportions check Proko: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtG4P3lq8RHFBeVaruf2JjyQmZJH4__Zv

You will eventually improve if you just keep drawing stuff you like and using some references here and there, but with some focus the results should come faster. In my experience it's harder to keep oneself motivated this way tho, so watch out for that.

>>4063792
fuck proko, learn from someone real like Vilppu. Lurkmore to find some megauploads with videos/manual. Study the old masters to understand the fundamentals of composition and garner taste.

>>4063818
Proko's yt course is more concise and focused. You can go through the resources much quicker and efficiently.
Vilppu's videos lack that kind of orderliness.

This said, the best would be to check as many resources as possible obviously. Some mentors can click better with you than others. Same goes for books.

>>4063834
>https://www.quickposes.com/en/gestures/timed

I like your quickposes advice, but I have to say that proko is a charlatan. Guys like Vilppu clearly studied the old masters and as such are in touch with thousands of years of the western artistic tradition. You needn't cut off your own balls just to save a few hours and some head-scratching.

>>4063390
Thanks. Haven't drawn in ages and not really confident in my ability, so that's encouraging. I use Photoshop.

>>4063792
I appreciate this mate. Back to the study mines I go.

>>4063851
>proko is a charlatan
I don't know how much that's true, but at the end of the day I don't even care.
His course is pure gold. Story ends right there for me.

Not great but at least I drew it from imagination like a stupid fucking meme person.

>>4063982
he's not a charlatain as much as just a sliver grade artist who only made it as a teacher and not artist
check this video out

https://youtu.be/4h4-2HRHaHI

>>4063986
You really think I haven't seen this before?
As I said earlier, I don't care what his weaknesses are. I only care about his strengths. His Anatomy course is one of his strengths.

>>4063566
Risking losing time when I could comission a different artist.

Dunno if you guys will like this, but I'm probably not going to post this for a couple months because I'm lazy and full of self doubt but I would love to see what people think of it.

>>4064073
It's the best pic in the whole thread

Shitting out work like that isn't going to get you any autismbux. Furries with money want polish.

>>4064133
I'm assuming her back musles are where I'm supposed to look, but the lineart is so think, it just distracts me. You think you could redo the lines?

>>4064133
As the other anon said, you should add some line art to the muscle forms that create a contour.

Also, her right eye (our left) doesn't follow the perspective properly and it looks like a projected sticker on her head.

>>4064133
Sexy stuff Anon! Loving it! Do not be afraid of adding more darker areas it will make the image pop better. Keep working at it!

Her mouth is at the wrong angle compared to how the face and eyes have been drawn. Also the nose seems rushed. o:

>>4060146
Really nice expression with Gwen,I love it!

>>4065768
Honestly I like it, i just think if you drew a bit bigger the line work could be cleaner. And imo for something to be "fappable" usually it's a fully rendered digital piece.
Most people don't bust nuts to trad drawings. Also the bottom half would be nicer if you could see the legs. Not tucked away, show the relationships between the fat of the calfs and thighs. But yea.

the sketchy look of the lineart doesn't go well with the way you colored it. The face is hard to look at, it just feels messy. On first glance i also really dislike the color you chose for his hair.

tried to do a comic, but it sucked too badly.
only panel that is not a complete disaster

just two dudes being dudes

>>4068915
Yep.

I will try to preserve the texture as much as possible. Thanks anon.

I'll try to finish this one tomorrow.

>>4069211
I wanted to draw something like this

>>4069213
did you tried, to draw the same pic from a different angle ? the pussy looks almost like a frontal view rather than being in perspective

>>4066668
I like the color choice and subject matter. >>4068558
Firez you never answer my calls or reply ti my textsss.

This took me a very long time from sketch to lineart. Does anyone know how to fix her face? Clothing folds are also very tough for me. The lengths of the foreshortened arms I'm not sure about either

>>4069084
I hate the subject matter, but I like that you actually paint the fur texture, a lot of furries I see just render the fur like skin and it kinda freaks me out

>>4069406
i know what you mean. im actually not certain what the furry community wants whether they like the shaggy fur or not. thanks.

>>4069260
I checked the things I never check but I doubt the couple of messages I just replied were from you. If you contact me again I will reply for sure

Btw really nice lines and composition!

>>4066984

>>4069353
Hot, blog? Also, 1 face is fine, but the one on the right is tilted up too much. And also smol legs.

>>4064073
nice. please post more.

>>4065768
wow that ended in disappointment.

Generally speaking, it's nice to see a lot of good work being posted in this thread. I haven't been here in a bit, but there seems to be an overall improvement in the quality of content being posted.

>>4069353
I actually found this to be adorable and funny

i want to do this last skech before start rendering my pending projects like >>4060146.

what should i work with? i think a will give me more chance to practice perspective, what point of view you think is more appealing.

>>4063511
You're definitely a fan of Joel Jurion, there's potential her if you clean you lines up a bit more, gotta find something of your own to inject into it though.

>>4065494
Firez going THICC seems to improved him slightly, however there's a bit to much well..face on her left cheek, were are the other two fingers on her hand holding her breast? if there folded back that's just weird and unnatural. Finally either the mouth or the nose need to be centered.

pretty good

>>4069898
Did you see? >>4068558

>>4068558
Firez what's your secrets I need to get gud

>>4069920
Idk really anon. I don't think I'm good but maybe the pressure and extra time derived from unemployment has made me a bit better in this last year. I had to move to a cheaper more isolated place so that also helped

Do it everyday and try to be totally there, Maybe I'm a brainlet but drawing well requires a ton of focus for me. Sometimes I don't even listen to music, just an app that generates white noise. I also use the pomodoro tecnique through an app called engross that tracks your working hours every day

While doing figure drawing, try to watch at the subject once or twice at most, change things, if something is weird looking on the ref just change it based on what you know, this will improve your working memory and ease the transition to drawing from imagination

I also followed the 1st year of MDJ videos, ymmv but I digest very easily his explanations

If you feel lost. Read The Art Spirit from Robert Henri, that book is a must for any illustrator I would say, I get back to it every 3-6 months, it gives you some sort of guideline about the state of mind you need to be in order to create in a competent/worthy way, it is incredibly motivating without being cuddling, etc...

>>4065494
Arms looks really weird.

>>4068558
Hey, Firez!
I've constructed a skull underneath and my main criticism of your piece is that each facial feature seems to be drawn at different planes or angles. For appeal sake, I've constructed the skull around the angle of the eyes since they were the first thing that caught my eye when looking at your art.

The shape of the face was drawn at an upward angle with the cheek being pushed too far out and the cheekbone disappearing into it. The nose was too wide and over detailed and the mouth was drawn at a more severe side angle as well.
By drawing a skull underneath, I find it really helps make consistent of the proportions and shapes someone tries to achieve.

>>4069998
I forgot to mention, I also changed the silhouette of the hair so you could see more curves of the body. Working in larger clumps first helps create an appealing shape.

>>4069998
Thanks anon. Dully noted. That looks really cute :)

>>4070015
Thanks! Best of luck. c:

>>4070625
please try not take too long to answer me ive been thinking about it for a day or two now i think and its stressing me out!!

>>4059735
Usually I like what cutesexyrobutts produces. This Rosa pic, though, looks very unappealing in the face region.

at first i had both their furcocks massive and throbbing but it didn't look right

I’m really glad my commissioner is patient

>>4070731
You are slow af.

>>4070810
yes, but in this case I was just lazy and didnt work on it since the last version i posted

>>4070679
I'm going to give you another tip. 'Brown wolf, yellow wolf' isn't very thoughtful character design. Furries like characterization. Also, your facial anatomy is really off-putting. Look into bara kemono.

>>4070841
>bara kemono
>Hey man, draw generic square muzzle with simplistic eyes like everyone else does!
Fuck off

>>4070679
Your faces do need work, but don't listen to that retard. In order to express your own style, you first need to understand the anatomy beneath it. Your faces at the moment look like uncanny taxidermy failures and it's super unsettling, especially since you're going for a high contrast and high detail style. It's making the mistakes more obvious.
Go check out some wolf anatomy over on google images. Study the skull from different angles and musculature. Using 3D scans is useful too if you manage to find any of them. Don't reference other artists for the time being since it's likely that you may not understand if they've done something incorrect or not. Once you get the basics down, then I recommend implementing some inspiration from other artists if you desire.
Best of luck!

im new to furry stuff i have been doing realistic portraiture for the past 5 years and i understand what you guys are talking about how it looks uncanny. i see it now too

do you think a more simplistic illustration would read better than what im doing now? i feel like the more i look at it, just doesnt seem like furry art can easy be adapted to the realism i've been trying to force it into...

>>4070978
i think your stuff is nice, we have plenty of toony furry artists already. nice to see some more realistic stuff imo. but work on face yes.
>>4070905
this looks more right

>>4070935
You can check out my other work at https://twitter.com/Marmalade_Mum

>>4070978
I think a bit of practice will go a long way. Good luck!

>>4070978
Yes, which is why I suggested bara kemono. Realism<appealing stylization. Certain styles are popular for a reason. That doesn't mean you have to copy them; just expand your visual library.

>>4070990
How did you prove that studying wolf skulls is necessary to draw furry smut again?

How the fuck do I draw not cursed faces

>>4071005
i dont feel so bad anymore thanks anon

>>4070978
Nothing wrong with a more realistic style, see Chunie or Dargem.

It is just easier to go into uncanny valley with a more realistic style, just keep at it.

Something about you gives me the idea that you don't realy care about furry, I could be wrong, but it will be harder to figure out appeal that way.

>>4071005
looks too human.

>>4071005
jesus

>>4071027
what the fuck do I do, stylize more? I can't draw smiles on even normal human faces, always looks creepy as fuck

>>4071005
Pretty good nightmare fuel

>>4071102
look at actual sexy fanart of isabel and try to copy that. Look at what they do with her proportions, what makes it look sexy.
This isn't just so you copy another artist, but to learn from them, so you can incoorporate what you've learnt into your art into the future.
I'd recommend you scrap this image and start over instead

>>4070679
What bothers me is their furry dicks. I mean, that must be very unpractical.

>>4070999
I proved I have more artistic knowledge than you and people are better off listening to me than you because of that.

if you had to rate this as an artist, how angry did you become in the process?

>>4071161
If it's from a 12 year old, not so much. If it's made by an adult, i'd rage pretty hard.

i did a couple quick sketches of more stylized furry subjects and i think it translates better than the realistic stuff. i will still try to render it with realistic lighting...not sure how that will end up but its worth a try.

>>4071168
I doubt a 12 year old is able to post porn on furrafinity, but hey, it's clown world we live in, so you never know...

>>4070978
An artist with a similar coloring style like Zaggatar would be a good place to look to answer your question. He nails realistic lighting furry stuff really well.

>>4070999
You asked him to post his work you fucking smoothbrain.

>>4071178
No, he asked me because he entered the conversation without context, doesn't have an actual argument and wanted to flex his follower count. I'll live.

>>4071102

some fag weeb white fatboy who posts his foot fetish smut in /ic/ pretty often.

>>4068294
well anon, if you know your pillow shading is ugly and needs work, why even post the image, fix your shading, challenge yourself, chose a source of light and TRY,
then you could post, you could say
>i tried NOT pillow shading, pls gib crit.

>>4069979
Thanks for the insight, I feel as if I'll be out of my rut soon enough!

>>4071005
Toppest of keks thank you anon i needed this right now

take 16 pictures with faces that you like from other artists, draw 16 20min sketches of each,
the best 8 redraw and COME UP WITH A CONSTRUCTION UNDERNEATH, the best 4 shade monochrome, the best two finish into colour. Then do one face from imagination to finished picture. Rinse repeat.

I don't know what I could do to increase visual appeal. I'm usually at a loss of where to go at the final phases of a drawing, to give it a look of completeness. I'm also skeptical about my color choice, I feel like something was lost when I went from the shadow block-in to color

Thank you, I initially thought she was a very generic design sans the clothing. Didn't expect such a positive reaction!

>>4071649
this is terrible, don't do this.

Trying to do more finished pictures. Apart from hands, what should I focus on improving?

>>4060476
is this fucking gex?

I wonder how furry artists feel about how some people are so desperate and work so hard to break into something they do for fun. It's kinda weird.

Maybe try more cartoony fox colours? Orange plus white/light beige.

>>4071749
Tummy. It's one of the biggest areas in your pictures and its a big chunk of absolutely flat colour. Either break it up with clothing or add detail for it to be on par with other body parts.

I feel like the shade on the neck wouldn't go that low becouse she's looking up.

>>4071546
Your picture needs more darker areas in general to make place for more midtones so that your shapes could finally come out more. I changed the head a bit because it felt off that is just a side note.

But if you want to draw furries you have to just accept that drawing/painting bodies covered by fur in general is great hassle because fur is just a complex material that is messy and often needs extra work.

>>4059866

The gesture (posture) is the first step, building onto the forms with structure + mass & resolving anatomy is the next step, then fleshing out the mass with texture and contrast is the final step. The posture is the very first thing you address because, as you can see, it's very difficult to go backwards and change a pose without losing almost everything you worked on after the fact. It's easier to change a rough sketch to look right than a piece with the skin painted on. If you build a barn too narrow, it's easier to fix when it's lines on the dirt than when it has walls and windows and doors and a roof. Complete your first step before moving to the next step, you'll thank yourself later.

>>4071749

Give "the pink void" in the background a bit more attention. Obviously you don't want to distract from the piece with a busy background, but is this witch being molested in a library? In a classroom? In a stone-walled cellar? Unfortunately, in this state, it's neither, it's just a pink backdrop that flattens the whole piece. You took the time to give her a desk full of books to be fucked *on*, give her an interesting room to be fucked *in* as well. You have the technical ability to start pursuing better settings and making composition considerations such as background depth. For now, I'd rather see the setting be better established with background elements rather than reworking her shading or anatomy, which are fine and will improve the more you draw. Don't avoid backgrounds or else you'll be drawing the same pink void for all your pieces.

>>4071983

On second glance I see she's actually on the floor, not a desk. It's fine to have repeating brickwork become less detailed and visible the further back it goes, but the change of color from blue to pink give it no continuity to imply that there's more flooring behind her.

i want to thank everyone for their help i never thought i would be having so much fun drawing gay furry porn

i like to think they are married and in love
i wouldnt want to draw any anthro canines having premarital sex

>>4062900
if you dont have the money at hand get a loan and pay the artist, keep the games profit 100% to yourself

what, you dont trust the game to even make back the investment? then you cant expect a stranger to risk hours and hours of work for a promise

>>4070871
i gotta be honest, friend. im not too sure what you are talking about. i know the one you are talking about, i just dont know the forum post you are referring to. if you like the american swimtrunks one that is still in my gallery free to download. username turboyiffer69. sorry i cant be more of help.

>>4071989
i like where you are going with this pic

why would 2 men especialy dogs get married tho
its not like they can have kids

>>4072112
They can adopt

thanks.

>>4072055
thank you for answer at last! i printed you picture and taped it to my door so i have it now for good now i can see wheenver i need to empty myself ^^ lol

>>4064002
And that is why you are going to make it.

>>4070731
I would be patient too. Your work is worth the wait. Would commission you if I had the info

>>4063511
You dont have to answer if you do not want. How old are you Lambrey? Allso are you making a good living with art or is it just a hobby?
really love your stuff. your fundamentals are off the charts... borderline jung gi

>>4071172

>>4069893
I really love his stuff. a big part of his influence on me was he approached things the same way and cared about the same things i did, he just managed to actually pull it off. It gave me a very clear direction I had to work to improve overall, where other artists just had one or two things about their work I wanted to emulate. Luckily i've found plenty of other sources of inspiration since so my style and taste will continue to evolve

>>4072458
thanks, i don't think I'll ever reach gi but theres no point in aiming lower than him either. I'm 24 and work full time, art's still mostly a hobby. I barely make any money off commissions but I don't treat it very seriously either. Making more money would mean a lot more time spent working on things that might be fun in the moment but won't help me grow. I used to be obsessed with "making it" but my motivation for that was that it would put me in an environment that would push me further artistically. holding my breath for the perfect job seems silly now when I know I'm perfectly capable of improving on my own if i just put in the effort.

>>4072996
Add depth

>>4071845
Shoo shoo gains goblin

>>4073266
Adding weight in a lot of the wrong spots but yes, do add depth. Don't need to add so much weight to the bottom of her horns, where her bangs meet a horn, or the crown, for example. Could stand to put some of that weight into the contour or tapering from the tips of her horns/crown.

>>4073266
>>4073430
Thank you!

>>4073232
Guy who asked your age here again! :)
Anyways I really think you've got something special. When it comes to "making it " unless u mean something different than being able to use your art to make money, I do not see why you could not be "making it" right now. With the right understanding of the market you could tap into just polishing up your images a little bit, you know airbrushing and that shit which we don't care about but u know.... sakimichan proof and such.. You should be able to make good money of your stuff you just need more exposure i think. I'm not as good as you but I have ideas on how to "sell out" if you want to talk about it. I have plans on doing it myself when I get good enough. Could be interesting to see if it would work if you applied such techniques to grow a newly created Instagram or similar. Again tell me if you want to chat on disc or similar about it. Does not have to be mic just typing.

>>4071943
I tried to do the back view with your advice in mind after I touched up the first one. I still am really unconsciously hesitant to choose darker values, I guess cause my brain thinks a lot of detail will be lost if I go too dark with the shadows. Otherwise my lights and darks lack contrast or I just pick muddy colors. Doesn't help that one of my monitors is inferior to the other so it always looks strange when I shift it over. I think that's the main reason I pick saturated colors, it's so they'd show up well on my shitty monitor.
My lineart might also be incongruent with the rendering I'm trying to achieve, I tend not to paint over the lines themselves because I spend a long time on the linework so it'd be a shame to paint over it. I guess the solution to that would just to get better and faster, or just not focus on lines so much.
I appreciate your help, you saved me a lot of time figuring stuff out

>>4073357
two right feet

>>4073357
Correct the foot that's standing on the ground, stretch it in length and correct the shape

not feelin this so probs gonna redraw it later

Some of you have amazing linework and yet all you do is draw girls with cocks. What a waste.

>>4073514
Hi Anon >>4071943 here

This picture is way waaaay better than your previous work GREAT JOB! Yes, picking darker values feels bad at first because it feels like we are ruining the picture, feels like we have a clean piece of cloth in front of us and we are suddenly pouring disgusting dirt on it. At least that is how it feels for me every time but I have to push through my feelings of thinking that this is wrong because I know it must be done.

My problem is working with saturated and bright colors, even if I want to somehow I always dial it back unconsciously just like you in other ways. Thus all of my works are somewhat muddy and dull and that really hurts me because I know it and it is hard to get past it. I also still can't paint with different lighting environments colors mess up so much all the time. I wish I could use layer modes effectively but they never turn out the way I want them to.

>>4073802
Looking great keep it up!

>>4073826
stole them from u

>>4073266
You are adding line thickness randomly. This is not the proper way to add depth to lineart.
Just the most jarring example in your redline.
Her hand on the ground that is the closest to the viewer should have a bigger line thickness that stuff that is more far away.
Just adding thickness to ambient occlusion areas won't do the trick if you leave out everything else.

>>4073868
>everyone must like what I like *crying baby noises*

>>4072001
>you dont trust the game to even make back the investment?
I do trust that it will make profit but not over night unless the art is truly amazing, and I'm honestly looking for amateurs, the ones that go for 20$ a piece. I did take a loan but it needs to get approved by the bank, although I have a couple of artists working on the concept art for the game. But since they are working for free at the moment, I wouldn't ask them for more. I'm very grateful towards them. I'm only missing a guy who provides backgrounds and other small assets, but I'm working on my own to do those, although slowly, since I don't need to work much on the code other than doing things for the game to look better, like a grid menu for the selection screen.
I think the artists jumped from this thread, but I may be wrong since I made similar posts in at least 2 other boards.

Just posting my discord again just in case.

Use hentai you find on google as placeholder art til the game is in a finished state, then start hiring artists or offering your profit cuts when you have a finished game as proof that they're not wasting their time on a game that won't be finished. You can't expect people to put all the risk of their own paycheck in your hands, especially when you're posting on the saltiest art board on the internet.
