?

I started triying to ink mote oftently, but i got lazy at the scales, im in the textures drawabox lesson and its a fucking drag, i hate it

>>4571040
also, i have this problem where i get MASSIVE tunnel-vision and my proportions end up super fucked, like in pic related, shes supposed to be tall and androgynous, but this is just ridiculous, she looks like shes 6'8, also, im very bad at connecting the neck and the head

What do ye think

ppsht wonk badabing ohhhh this shoit good oh mmmm oh my godd pffffshhhht oohhhhhhhhhh ahhhh uhhh

>>4571045
if i try to concentrate too much on proportion my drawing ends up super stiff and if i focus on gesture the priportions end up fucked up (even tho my figure drawing isnt expressive at all)

Threadly reminder to keep on practicing.

I know now the next question! Knowing you, being the faggot that you are, digging in deep all the time, you will say now: "What does the /beg/shits think of posting arnold?".
Let me ask you something, when its the /int/chads that have introduced me to arnoldposting, what are the /beg/s gonna say? They're not gonna say "the /int/chads have made a mistake" because the /int/chads never make a mistake ! So therefore it is okay, I can arnoldpost around here, I can arnoldpost in my board. First of all, because the /int/chads introduced me to arny, and second of all, because I'm a STUD. I'm BALLSY. I don't take no shit from anyone. I post my arnold ANYWHERE I wan't! I don't have to find a hideout place, Like you! HAHAHAHAHA !

Some ground rules to start this thread and the next /beg/ threads off:

>if you are /beg/
Don't ever give advice.
You can relate and share your hardships with other /beg/s, but never give them advice.
If you MUST give advice, start the reply off with "I'm beg, but what worked for me is..."

>Before you post your work
1. Every person giving advice here expects for you to have at least read some of the sticky, and that you already know what you should be doing to improve.
In that light, replies such as "grind more fundamentals" are perfectly viable advice.
We expect you to know what the general fundamentals are (gesture, anatomy, perspective, drapery, etc.), and we expect you to know where you can find resources to practice these subjects.
Sometimes literally the only good advice to give is to practice more and improve your technique.

2. DO NOT post your 5 minute sketches that you didn't put much thought into. If you do post them then make sure to ask for SPECIFIC advice on a specific subject.
If you post a doodle and ask "where did i go wrong" or "how should I continue from here", expect to get meme replies such as "Loomis".

Follow these simple rules and the generals will become much more productive for both the /beg/s and the people giving advice

(sigh) fair enough, but what i said still applies, you gotta give something to bite into, the only thing i can say is that the leg is out of proportion, im sure youd try to brush anything else aside because "muh sketch" put some more work into your drawings and people will put more work into the critiques

The distance from the eye to ear is the same as the distance from the bottom of the chin to the eye which is approximately the same as the distance from the eye to the top of the forehead.

The lighting on his right pauldron needs to be sharper, you got it right on his left one though.
I think you need to push the values more on his torso, looks a bit flat currently.

>>4571101
I am schizophrenic but what's your point

Crab! (in progress).

I want to make one pincer appear metalic, like with a hydraulic system and everything but I'm having trouble finding good reference for how it should look like, anyone got tips?

Also general comments? I know it's barely even there yet but feel free to comment anything.

How do i break from the habit of drawing only anime girls in 3/4 with a stiff neck when It comes to drawing random heads as a warm up?

Also how the fuck do I fix the way I draw lines? I feel like they made my sketches look way worse than they are, and they are already pretty shitty.

>>4571139
A hydraulic piston defeats the purpose of a pincer. Hydraulics can only provide a pushing force, and rely on gravity contract. So this pincer will have zero pinching power.
Also hydraulic pistons are slow as fuck and are only meant to move extremely heavy weights.
This cyborg crab would be pretty useless with it's current design.

I still want to make it have a metalic claw, any good ref I could use for this? I tried to look for like steampunk and robot arms online but I couldn't find anything really convincing.

try to draw porn, or two characters interacting, is not the best idea when you are still learning a lot. try to focus one thing at a time.

>>4571263
Agreed. I still struggle very much with gesture. These took 5 to 10 minutes each but I'm getting better I think. At the very least in terms of proportions. Here are some gestures from a couple months ago.

>>4571248
I adore your line control. Please tell me your secret.
I always draw straight lines, ovals and floating boxes for at least 30 minutes as warm up every time I sit down to draw but don't see much improvement after doing it for a couple months now.

>>4571248
please tell me how to draw lolis like you

>>4571264

>>4571326
It's @Vevesveves on twitter.

>>4571351
Put a lot of thought into every line you make and your line economy will naturally start to improve. Basically, force yourself to be clean until it becomes natural.

>>4571373
Ok.

>>4571019
Maybe this is a little abstract but I was wondering about your process for breaking down and analyzing art so you both understand how a drawing or picture or whatever works as well as being able to articulate it and include it in your own work.

>>4571310
Shadows are not color+black!, adding shadow also changes hue, not only value.

>>4571019
Don't know if I'm reading the sticky right. Does it really mean to say that before doing ANYTHING else is should get really good at 1:1 copying? Should i just copy real life and well drawn manga for some weeks after having done the picasso and vase?

I posted quite an ugly drawing days ago, the threadly reference about a girl, yesterday I made this, it doesn't look good but it's a better attempt than the last one, drawing is fun, and I was feeling hungry, that hunger that human hunger. My hand and wrist were hurting after I drew and are hurting again, huh.
Can all birds fly?

>>4571410
You absolutely shouldn't avoid having fun, but you should spend most of your time studying fundamentals too, e.g. copying. You should grab one of the books they recommend to make sure you're actually learning properly.

>>4571379
how long have you been drawing

>>4571418
if this quick sketch made your hand hurt you might have carpal tunnel or gripping the pencil too hard.
Chickens and penguins can't fly.

>>4571419
Alright thanks. Copying and Fun with a Pencil it is. Will try to ascend from ultra/beg/.

>>4571433
They can jump though, the important thing is getting somewhere high, as close as we can, the fall shouldn't really matter, Icarus.
>>4571433
>carpal tunnel or gripping the pencil too hard.
I think I might have something, had to quit learning how tod raw last year because of some injuries, never was able to check them, I may have been too hard on my body while trying to learn how to make smooth lines from the shoulder.
How can I know which one it is by feeling it?

>>4571447
I'm guessing you're a dyel which is why your shoulder becomes sore after a bit of drawing
I'm also guessing you're a woke zoomer because you're writing like a retard.

>>4571452
I asked about the wrist anon, I had shoulder pain, yes but what matters here is the wrist.

>>4571430
ten months

>>4571458
how'd you get so good that quick?
What books or tutorials did you go through?

How the fuck do you draw from the shoulder.

In the draw a box guide he never fucking explains how you do this. He doesn't even show you how to do it properly, he uses digital programmes, not pencils or pens like he suggests.

>>4571483
I know right, I blame some injuries on no one actually showing it
>hah just use the shoulder
FUCKING DO IT

>>4571490
Is there any video of anyone drawing from the shoulder because I always feel like I'm using my elbow. Like jesus christ I'm basically just swiping across the screen until I get a clean line

>>4571495
There's not, I tried drawabox livestreams, etc
there's not footage of it around

>>4571477
I just drew lol

>>4571483
Wait is that meme real? How do you even move your entire arm to draw?

>>4571496
This has got to be some kind of conspiracy. How can this be such a popular technique yet there is no actual visual demonstration of it in practice?

>>4571500
Apparently

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAtmiQgW6As

It just looks like the dude is using his elbow to me

>>4571483
Forget all you read. Make sure to not move your wrist and draw a vertical straight line toward you. That's how you draw from the shoulder.

>>4571505
So all it involves is locking your wrist?

>>4571510
Yes, but idea is to use your whole arm, the wrist too, for maximum control. Nobody moves the actual shoulder joint like a retard if you were wondering.

I ordered a drawing tablet and i cant wait for it to arrive, any bad habits I should avoid early?

>>4571504
>Just practice the same movement towards one direction and just rotate the page bro
Is this guy trying to filter out as many people as possible?

How do I get better at drawing what I see instead of what I think I am seeing. I noticed after going through drawing on the right side of the brain the main issue I have is that I have trouble seeing like an artist. Instead of drawing what I see, I represent the world around me and in my head. How long does it take break this habit? Is there a faster way using digital art to break it? Should I incorporate her chapter 2 exercises this into my art routine until I feel comfortable?

I can't believe beginners are still getting memed on this drawabox shit. Look at the author's work, it's literally /int/ tier.

>>4571599
Improving with every iteration.

>>4571600
Drawabox is based off of the video instructions given by a much better artist though. His name eludes me sadly.

At best you you can say it's downgrade because information is lost on the transfer. But it's better than nothing. I'd argue it's better than most things as well.

How do I into proportions?

>>4571599
This girls a cutie if anyone wants to take a jab at her.

I noticed my eyes are a bit fucked. Good thing I caught it now. I'll try to fix it.

Senpai literally everywhere I look the Draw A Box guy gets his cock sucked so hard you'd think he was Jesus - I thought a lot of the stuff was shit but hell, everyone, including professionals, seemed to think the dude was a champion of talent.

And what is 'crabbing?'

>>4571612
Measure until you want to gouge your eyes out for great returns. Unfortunately that last 20% will be horrible. By then you'll be at those uncanny valley of despair where you measure until you want to gouge your eyes and everything looks like shit because you were off by a few millimeters. Not sure what to do then.

How do I evolve from loomis heads and learn to draw heads and faces intuitively?

>>4571626
The only answer I've found is to just grind it out. Tons of pages of you trying to draw heads from imagination. Adding a little more detail each time.

>>4571626
learn skull and head anatomy.

>>4571630
best place to learn?

so should i start with fun with a pencil or the key to drawing?

>>4571630
vilppu lectures are good.

>>4571600
this picture proves natural talent and intuition is real

>>4571045
Always start by establishing the size of the figure by drawing horizontal and vertical lines that form a box. The figure perfectly fits inside that box.
Afterwards you block in the big shapes by only paying attention to proportions, perspective, and form.
After that you're free to tunnel-vision on any part of the drawing because you can be sure that all the bodyparts are placed in their correct position.

>>4571600
Oh no no nono-

>>4571654
please tell me this is really early artwork

>>4571656
What's so bad about it.

>>4571649
that picture proves drawabox won't make you good at designing, composition, lighting, edge control, texture painting.

perfecting cooking eggs will make you good at cooking eggs. but you'll still lack skill to prepare seafood, meat, veggies and putting everything together.

>>4571659
It's designed to look appealing to /beg/s and normies, but when you take a close look at it almost every single detail is flawed.

>>4571671
I'd suggest to not exaggerate features before you know how to draw them normally. It can turn into a crutch.

me dont know what draw

tried drawing a doggo

>>4571734

-aww you broke my arm

Can I just go straight into drawing gestures and figure drawing without learning anything else if I just want to draw anime girls. I got the vilpu renaissance course but I've also read figure drawing is a bit advanced for beginners.

>>4571747
Does it look broken?

>>4571750

yaaaawnnnn, learn anatomy. if you knew anatomy you wouldnt be making dumb questions as ''where did i fucked up'' you should have at the very least a grasp of where shits are off but you don't.

i am a beg but maybe you should draw bones (lines) instead of circular shapes. that way it's easier to know where joints are and how muscle and fat are attached

How's the color? I'm trying to do something moebius-ish so there's going to be more stuff, but I want to get the main colors right first.

>>4571933
maybe less saturation on the orange and light blue? contrast in saturation would look very nice to the eye i think

>>4571660
It isn't an issue because drawabox doesn't try to teach any of those. A third grade teacher telling nine year olds that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell isn't bad at their job for not having mastered organic chem.

>>4571933
Moebius would juxtapoz an orange against a blue like that, but the planet and sky would be different values of the same blue - you've got 3 hues fighting for attention here. Mobius was a genius at choosing color, you'll need to study what he was doing more, and how he layered hues and values, especially as he typically worked in watercolors and inks. You'll need more unification in the blues to get more of a Mobius feel. He was very specific in terms of what colors he chose, and how he applied them.

>>4571082
sorry to hear that anon but you bought a pos chinese meme. next time wait another month or two and buy a real tablet. instant gratification's a bitch.

>>4571922
You can't just pretend to be studying by scribbling arbitrary lines and circles to pass it off as construction.

>>4571989
Not bad as a starting attempt. I wouldn't have chosen the pink for the background, or that saturated a hue, as it's competing with the foreground and focus, and look at the apple in terms of hue. There's way more color in there than green, I guarantee it. Look for hues in the shadows, and highlights. I don't understand what's going on with the white, but I'll chalk that up to beginning experimentation.
Look at brush strokes, too - learn to pay attention to them now, so it becomes habit. Don't just randomly fill areas with random strokes, like the table - mirror the direction of the strokes in the background with the foreground. As one of my painting teachers always told us, every inch of a painting should be intentional and defendable, even if it's "blank".
Don't have a mix of vertical/slanted/ horizontal strokes, use them to make zones more appealing. This really matters if you're going to paint this loosely.
Let the paint dry, and watch your edges. The pink edge on the apple is unappealing - and, always paint the background before the foreground, and let it dry if you're laying down that much paint. Look overall at your color composition - you have essentially green, pink, and grey. That's not very appealing, nor interesting. And, that pink should be reflected across the scene, as a background color that vibrant would influence everything, even if it's just some reflection in the rimlight.

>>4571082
>3 months
guaranty?

>>4571989
Nice composition. Red and green are complementary colors, and the light pink contrasts the dark green well.

The white hot spots appear to not be mixed well. Mixing the paint more thoroughly beforehand would produce less jarring streaks.

Is that acrylic? I don't paint much but IIRC acrylic is not good for mixing on the canvas because it dries so fast.

If I traced I'd trace better artists than me.

>>4572007
I know what you're saying. But it's not supposed to be construction. It's pre-construction. I'm too much of a shitter to do construction. I draw circles in the shape of the torso until it looks right and guess the rest.

>>4572093
Your construction should look like this

>>4571883
Ive seen youre drawings for the padt couple of threads. I like em but try to go out of your comfort zone. Try adding texture to the clothing, or add some dynamism to your drawings. Do your best!

>>4572097
Is this alke?

>>4572097
This looks similar to the construction process from that one japanese art book. Hita-something? They use heart shape hips like that. I tried to learn that construction process but couldn't get it right so I gave up with the intention of coming back to it when I was better.

>>4572093
>pre-construction
/beg/s say the darndest things.

>>4572123
I know I'm doing a super shitty version of "blocking in the form" or whatever it's called. When I said pre-construction I meant it as I am doing this as temp construction until I feel Im good enough to learn formal construction processes. Whatever, you'll probably just make fun of me for saying that too.

>>4572105
Yup, his patreon has his process pics as reward.

>>4571248
One day I'll draw cunny like you.

Can someone help me with this high contrast look. Going for a comic book/poster feel.

>>4572160

Img didn’t load

I've only really started drawing a few days ago and I tried to do a simple gesture figure but I guess I kept going at it for about 10 minutes. Anyway, I'm a little iffy with the left arm and some of the proportions of the torso (I don't feel like I gave it enough torque either) but I'm kinda proud of the legs considering I'm not too well-versed in anatomy yet.

I'm going to reply with the reference. Any tips, critique, and suggestions?

>>4572164
apologies that it came out in landscape. Also, I didn't really put any thought in shading for that sketch.

>>4572164
resize your image please.

>>4572164
So it looks decent as your drawing what you see, so essentially "copying" but that's only going to take you so far. As you've only been drawing for 2 days that's fine, just keep drawing and make it a habit. But eventually you'll need to start breaking down the 3-dimensionaliyu of the figure make it more solid etc. If check out Steve hustin's book way more beginner friendly then Loomis figure drawing imo after you get that shit down go to Hamptons analytical figure drawing to learn anatomy. That's what's working for me.

>>4572160
looks contrast form me. it pure black on white.
I do not know enough about bikes but can front wheels tilt like that?

>>4572164
I also attempted that ref bro, pretty hard gesture.
You actually got the relative positions and angles of all the body part correctly.
The torso so is too short. Hip and ass need more work.
Another point is that you need to use less lines. Right now you're scribbling way too many lines and most of them are meaningless. Try to be very conservative and put a lot of thought where you put your lines.

>>4572126
Here is the reference.

>>4572176
>Steve hustin's book [and] Hamptons analytical figure drawing

Thanks, I will check these books out.

>Another point is that you need to use less lines. Right now you're scribbling way too many lines and most of them are meaningless. Try to be very conservative and put a lot of thought where you put your lines.

Yeah, will do.

>>4571019
Someone told me I should focus on gesture drawings for now, but even when I do that it looks like shit. I hate being a beginner. I hate everything I make and so does everyone else.

I was thinking getting a graphics tablet.
Is it worth getting a wacom with no screen for 350 or something like hioun kamvas or xp-pen with a screen for 350.

Almost didn't draw today. I'll stop now and go study before sleep.

>>4572221
Did you watch Vilppu anon? You should be

>>4572226
And I stop a couple of mistakes as I post. Oh, well.

Playing with line weight is fun with a 2mm

>>4572232
Good form but remember the proportions of the skull.

What are some resources on better linework?

>>4572232
apparently distance from lower teeth to chin become two times bigger when you are not skeleton

>>4572258
Copy other artists.

>>4572258
this figure on the stone looks like smaller woman inside bigger woman body

>>4572264
Is it the size of the head, or how it's attached to the torso?

>>4572266
distance to the arm with shield, head size, and clothes reinforce illusion

Drew a rat faced man, kinda looks like my brother

>>4572270
Gotcha, thanks.

How would you fix it? I tried a quick fix

I made the head larger and pushed the shield away from the body a bit, is it better?

>should be drawing
>load up nukige instead
i'm ngmi bros

>>4572278
it better now.

I'm observer not a teacher. /beg/ advice is against rules.
and you need to improve your gesture generally

>Nobody has given me critique or advice in 3 fucking threads
Fuck this. You're all a bunch of faggots.

>>4572298
It usually mean you doing fine or need to just draw more

>>4572298
Pyw in 5 minutes and I'll critique it

>>4572302
Already posted it.
Guess which one is it.

This is utterly terrifying.

>>4572298
Good. Fuck off.

what do you guys think of this rendition of raze ult

No ref since I accidentally closed tab.
Is the placement of the features fine? Looks kinda wonky to me, I think I messed up the eyes. Does the head overall have volume or did I make it flat?

>>4572308
Kill yourself, fag.

>>4572320
>>4571069

>>4572277
>>4572305
You drew a face on a blank background with no neck or body connected to it. There's no form to speak of, but it's stylized enough where it's not unpleasant to look at.
I have no idea what you want out of a critique of this. More realistic? More stylized and appealing? Composition?
Assuming it's as realistic as you want it, It's executed relatively well, but there's nothing special about it. It leaves the mind just as easily as it enters it.

>>4572316
maybe like that

>>4572323
That's not mine, dumbass.

>>4572329
Yeah that looks better thanks

>>4572333
Then it's your fault for not specifying. You told me to guess, so I guessed the first one with no (you)'s. Next time try being polite and people might actually want to help you.

Sketching today

>>4572349
I really like the shape of these. Why is your paper dotted though.

looking for help of creating body shapes to look more realistic
model: jerri lynn davis

>>4572371
ew

>>4572365
Got a sketch book with dots to help with perspective drawings then I realized how much I like the texture of the paper. Super smooth so now I use the sketchbook for just drawings
Also thanks I been trying to do more sketching

>>4572375
i was about to type the same thing

I flipped around the canvas a lot and I think it looks slightly better.

>>4571019
been practicing body and want to know how i'm doing. i know its a little stiff/flat. just need some more info

>inb4 dick bulge
please anon its my pillow

>>4572378
Is the blue haired girl from somewhere or just your oc?

>>4572401
Tfw u drew the guidelines on the face but still managed to fuck up the placement

>>4572421
OC

Is there really any way to tell the difference between like mid beg and low int? There really aren't any guildlines on this board.

>>4572425
I find I have no patience for drawing faces

>>4572375 >>4572383
welll, is there anything I can improve on?

>>4572435
it unimportant

>>4572441
Not drawing with your mouse

How do you procure these things.
They sell them on Ali express but i have no idea if they're the real thing.
Is there any other way get these things?

>>4572446
I have a ton from when i bought my tablet
If you're not pressing down too hard these things should last you basically a year

>>4572444
I drew with a wacom bamboo,
there's something wrong with either the pennib
or the tablet itself where the pen won't stop selecting the document, leading to scribbly lines

>>4572444 >>4572371
I drew those three with a wacom bamboo,
the pennib is selecting everything, even when it's not touching the tablet, thus resulting in scribbly lines

>>4572474
I got one (1) with the tablet. I only just took off the sandpaper "protector" and adjusted the pressure on it so it should last longer now and not strain my arm from how hard you have to press down.
I just bought 100 from ali express, hope they aren't fake and ruin my tablet somehow. This one i have left should last a month more hopefully.

>>4572483
What type of tablet do you have?
I have a huion 610pro

does ic love anime or hate anime

>>4572298
>waaaaaaaaah ! nobody gave me free critique on my dogshit scribble!!! its not fair I deserve better !!

>>4572492
Yes

Deco 01 V2
Was 60£ + shipping and it's battery free with 8k pressure levels and it's as large as the largest wacom.
The only problems are the shit tier sensitivity as you have to press down for it to notice your pen is even there and the very high probability of getting poisoned by the cheap shitty carcinogenic plastic and glove you get with it.
Also the obvious problem that i have no nibs and i must draw.

>>4571019
Any and all feedback welcome.

>>4571073

>>4572392
Legs are too short, arms are too long, waist is too long.
Memorize pic related.

>>4572515
excellent work bro. mirin hard.

>>4572515
neat strokes

>>4572492
sure

Doing an operator anime girl, but after spending some time on it i just think it's pretty boring looking so far. Any tips or critique on anatomy/linework/posing etc welcome

>>4572548
not sure about this face but cool AK

Is there a keys to drawing equivalent video course . I'm an extremely visual learner and books aren't for me.

>>4572349
pretty good, i'd say give some more practice on proper face structure, the positioning of eyes/nose just isn't quite right for the angle the heads are in

>>4572590
Ya for sure face is something I struggle with, it was worse than this before. I couldn't wrap my head around the concept of the eyes shapes and how it placed in the heads and changes shape as the head turns
I'm not good at faces in general and I'm try to overcome it by copying artists I like and doing studies of course
Hopefully I get better and better at it

>>4572548
That's a really nice hairstyle anon. Did you copy it from another artist or stylise a real set of hair?

>>4572609
Thanks! I had doumeki from eizouken in mind while making this character so i kinda did her hair but a bit longer.

>Still can't draw a simple shape or line without it wobbling about the place or going off kilter
i think im going to kms

>>4572620
yes please

>>4572620
having a clean line work is really hard, dont get discouraged. If you're wobbling too much it my be because of bad posture, how you hold you pen, doing the line too slowly. Try searching for good tutorials to get a reference of how to have some fluid motions and have a good position while drawing. You dont have to have super clean lines to draw too, if you watch some pros sketching they start with a mess and take time to refine it

>>4572538
I'll give you something to stroke alright

>>4572628
ok
>>4572629
i'm finding it a lot harder doing it digitally than traditionally, prolly cos my eye's not watching my hand when I try and draw from the shoulder and grinding is Pain

>>4572620
if digital just use some stabilizer/ smoother.

>>4571073
I feel like I had it going until it came time to do the bone structure. and now I see how derpy the left ear is. something about the elevated chin was tricky for me to capture

Been trying to learn anatomy from Bridgman, Am I supposed to copy his drawings until I get good?

>>4572672
You're supposed to draw boxes until your body winds up lifeless

Why app should I use on iPad Pro for drawing and colour weeb degenerate shit?

I already have photoshop (iOS and windows) and Affinity Photo (iOS) for other stuff.

Should I get Procreate? Or is there something better suited?

>>4572661
>1.49 MB, 3052x3391
I think that was your downfall

>>4572548
Can you try this but with a DBZ character?

>>4572508
Did /trad/ and /int/ suddenly die? I don't see how you belong here

>>4572661
Ear is out of perspective. It's drawn flat like we're seeing it from the side.

New

>>4572703 >>4572703 >>4572703

About as amateur as you can get, did it as a fun doodle. Any recommendations as to how I can do better? (Besides getting better at sketching basic shapes)

>>4571584
Read Keys to Drawing by Bert Dodson, he dedicates the first chapter of the book exactly to teaching you to draw what you see intead of what you think things look like.

>>4571976
This looks like one of those "What anime characters would look like as real people" for Okabe Rintaro

>>4572699
In /int/ I get told to go to /beg/. And it's not /trad/.

>>4572518
like this?.

This is hell, why is my motor control like this

torso study, trying to draw them in multiple angles

>>4572736
thanks for the help I'll give it a try

Finished up the pain grind with a 10 min life draw and fuck me i shouldve clocked the leg proportions earlier

mr. me

Need to kill the beg threads

I want go draw underage japanese females like Akihito Yoshitomi
