What would be a good tip to get out of fear of drawing on procreate

[bleak grotto]

hmm, i mean, ibis paint is definitely worth the price for removing ads

and if you want to use procreate
it will take time to get used to, i didnt like it besides being able to zoom in really far and the pen features and thats it

[runic juniper]

Thinking of doing something similar with Elysia or smth

tried drawing manga

I suffered

I should use sharper brushes next time

[bleak grotto]

i think it looks great

[left siren]

Actually I suggest you study about manga composition

[grave nymph]

ah true

though manga isn’t really my main thing so I’ll designate that as a side quest w

[left siren]

There's a lot of simple elements you can do that when you know how and when to use it, gives your manga more impact

[grave nymph]

🤔

got an example for that? or keywords so I can search guides about it?

[left siren]

I forgot what this is caller exactly but basically a 3x3 grid like this

The intersection points is where you should put your focal point/important elements

Such as characters or overall what you want the audience to look at

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/735700983971315763/1087015331287027722/Shim.mp4

Here's my attempt of it

I drew it small first cuz it helps me with initial composition

Tis called thumbnail sketches

@grave nymph another one is foreground, midground, and background

It helps with the depth of the setting

Specially in large stand alone manga panels

[grave nymph]

ah those stuffs

compositions stuff I have basic knowledge

I find panelling hard

cus like

compared to illustrations

you only have limited space to convey dialogue, story, and the character’s actions and emotions

working on this made me respect the manga artists a lot more w

especially if they’re chucking out 30~page chapters within what

1 month?

heck there’s people who manage to finish a chapter weekly

[bleak grotto]

aa i wanna be able to do manga too

[grave nymph]

step by step you’ll get there

[left siren]

There's little to no backgrounds in most manga panels

Mostly just characters

And chat bubbles

[grave nymph]

mmm

that’s why panelling and the position of the dialogues is important hhhh

[left siren]

That's composition

Of you can master composition then manga paneling is a breeze

[grave nymph]

hhhhh

so they go hand in hand huh

Coincidentally I drew a similar position a few months ago

[spare dagger]

super coincidence

[left siren]

She's also supposed to have a stylized miko outfit aswell

[spare dagger]

it's like a musician create a song that already exist

still, very pog

your drawing is nice

[left siren]

Yeah but I got a chaotic space full of cubes about to rip the fabric of space-time instead of cherry blossoms

[spare dagger]

very calm scene I see

[rancid niche]

Both very cool

[past sand]

I did a sketch that I'll complete with Chinese ink later
I think it needs more volume on the back of her head, and that her forearm is too long. But i'm happy with how it turned overall

I'm not gonna lie, I thought it looked like a certain... phallic object for a moment there.

Hair problems

[celest notch]

just draw em bald at this point

[main wren]

what happened to her spine?

[solar bough]

Broken

I fix later

better?

[main wren]

not really, mostly the turn of her leg makes it seem like her pelvis isn't connected to it when placed against the position of the neck

[solar bough]

[main wren]

like if you take an image of a person standing upright and think about the spine then move the parts to make that pose, she is in trouble

I'm not saying the image itself is garbage or anything, just need to adjust some angles

[solar bough]

ima keep it this way, im not drawing expert anyways

[wooden raven]

is this based off a meme by any chance?

[grim edge]

yes actually

anyways give me a character

Hey y’all! It’s my first time doing Honkai fan art and it’s been a long while since I drew digitally. You guys got anything I can do to make it look better? It’s nowhere near done ofc tho

[noble wasp]

can make shoulders a bit rounder unless this is a stylistic choice

[sage canopy]

https://giphy.com/gifs/MgMzGtP4MvQzLtxcnH

[hallow geyser]

Guess who

[tulip oasis]

PLS HELP ME. anything i should do before coloring? also should i make the lineart less thick will it look better?

[runic juniper]

I think the lineart is great, and it wouldn’t look as good with thin lines with your style. I don’t think there’s much you can do other than color, but I don’t know what the fish thing is? Colors might make it more clear but rn I have no idea 😅

[vivid gyro]

I think it is a mahjong tiles

[left siren]

You lack line weight

[left siren]

There's a lot of things you can do tho

Currently the lineart looks flat, there's no sense where the light comes from and no variety

Everything is just the same thickness

This is the difference of having Line weight

In a manga style art this is a bit subtle but makes a huge difference

[tulip oasis]

thank you! ill try to fix it

[tulip oasis]

yepp the one shes holding here

[runic juniper]

Ohhhh yeah idk the character 😭

[bright copper]

Hiya!

I made more progress on my art thing and I’m wondering- what do I need to add?
Also how do I made the water not look horrible and same for the clouds lol, I only really draw on paper and don’t know how to do waves

ofc it’s not done yet tho

also I know it sucks im not very good at digital art :p

[dusky trail]

you could give it a lighter blue and just simple add wavy white pattern on it to create a wave

[bright copper]

Thanks! Also how do I add the white part of the waves? Like them crashing against the shore n stuff

making it in depth might be a bit too much for me buttt

[dusky trail]

well this is good enough reference, you can see the blue is a lot lighter and the white part is use stronger near the shore to give it more depth too

[bright copper]

ah that’s simpler than I thought

[bright copper]

Thanks a lot :D

[dusky trail]

simple is good, you dont have to throw in too many detail anyway

[bright copper]

Well- what about clouds?

Mine are kinda stinky rn

[dusky trail]

well you can also see it in the pic up there too

[bright copper]

true, but you got another example?
(Also pls ping me when you respond to me in doing something rn while on discord)

[dusky trail]

just simple throw a bunch then add thicker shades then you should have more filling in the background

it would at least keep your background feel less empty

[bleak grotto]

i would also lower the horizon line

[bright copper]

Thanks!

[bright copper]

Anything else I need to change or add?

Ah wait there’s one tad bit I forgot to color in

[left siren]

Clouds

It's hard to explain lemma just go set up real quick

Here's a similar one I did 2 years ago

I used reference for this but I can't find the reference cuz I just used a random picture of Boracay Beach from Google

Anyways we're gonna be recreating the clouds here which is pretty simple than it looks

Or not really recreating but just create a similar thing

[left siren]

first of all the sky is always gonna have a gardient

[bright copper]

ah

[left siren]

lets ignore the water cuz that actually is pretty complicated

next what youd want to do is pick any soft brush (im using watercolor brush) and created whatever shape you want as long as it looks natural

pure white can be used on a clear weather setting but depending on the setting, the cloud will have a bit of tint

next is using the same brush, erase some of that edge and then add tiny bits back to give the impression of the clouds splitting

cuz thats how clouds works irl

then just take a bit darker color tinted blue and do the same process you did with the clouds

you can do this randomly but if you have a fixed light source youd have to actually make the shadows facing away from the light

then just pick a darker color and add them at the top edge of the shadows to create conntrast

you could leave it like this or press ctrl+U and adjust the HUE and saturation to make the shadows match the sky

heres a timelapse if it helps

ignore the last part, I was just moving the ocean down

The lineart for it since I didn't think I sent it on here just the sketch

[runic juniper]

Stylized realism?

[dim abyss]

Nah it’s good. Your hands aren’t used to writing it so it’s a little janky, but it’s still better than some American’s handwriting I’ve seen.

[south ridge]

Guys what should I add to my Honkai oc??

cuz it looks pretty plain

[dim abyss]

Honestly I think for just a head it’s plenty detailed. An interesting eye design and a flashy/detailed outfit will probably make her feel more like a Valkyrie

[dusky trail]

well for the head, plain or not just depend on how you color and shade her

[left siren]

That's honestly something you should ask when you've done all the things you've initially thought of adding

[dusky trail]

just look at Star Rail solution for the head is to just give everyone hair vent

[midnight hound]

Question,
how is my drawing of Fu Hua's Cerulean Court?

I'll add more details to the hands and arms, btw.

Should I add more details on the torso part like the beads?

[warm mural]

i think the left forearm should be shorter and the left leg calves should have a little more shape to them, the foot positioning doesn't look very natural either so i think you should change that! it's very cute overall though :)

[left siren]

[bright copper]

y’all I wanna draw but feel unmotivated due to how I have trouble making the drawings look good. There’s always something wrong with their shape or face or anything. Can you guys give me some tips about them?

[dusky trail]

did you make any sketch before you start drawing?

[bright copper]

Yeah

[dusky trail]

show us some example then, can't give advice without know how your stuff work after all

[bright copper]

Ok one second

[bright copper]

Most recent thing I drew

[dusky trail]

the main issue seems to just be you unable to draw curve naturally yet

so the advice is mostly

[bright copper]

?

[dusky trail]

like some part here, did you just move it slowly to get the curve?

[bright copper]

no I just have really unsteady hands

I tried to make it smooth but I physically couldn’t

[dusky trail]

well... the charm point of the face and body is the curve

then your hand issue aside, most i advice i can give is try to use more ball join for the sketch

[bright copper]

Alright thanks!

also tbh I was going to draw the full outfit but I just got lazy lmao

[dusky trail]

then it mostly just depend on how you move your wrist for the curve

so it just a practice thing

[bright copper]

Alright thanks!

now to learn how to draw fabric

mb I just said the same line twice in a row

[noble wasp]

it takes time to become good, just focus on specific parts one at a time so you dont feel overwhelmed. eg. want to learn how to draw clothes, focus on that, once good alr, move on to next piece, and focus on a different subject

[bright copper]

What’s a good way to learn?

Is there a good place (not art school or something) or a good thing to watch or read?

Or is it just something you gain through time?

[noble wasp]

mostly fundamentals, trying to understand the thing instead of blindly copying, try not to draw what you think but rather what you see

i think for now, can focus on ratio, proportion and shapes when drawing

[bright copper]

I mean like

what’s the way I can learn

is there a place I can or is it something I get from practice

Thanks for the help tho

[noble wasp]

yt shud have a lot of resource on how to draw

but most of it will just come from practice

like as you draw more and more, you'll gradually improve

[bright copper]

Thank you!
I’ll just keep trying to draw stuff- I find tutorials to be very unhelpful at times

[noble wasp]

do you have a specific subject you want to focus on?

like draw people? environment?

[bright copper]

no clue

I just have an idea of something to draw

and then I attempt to draw it

[noble wasp]

well, as practice just to train your hand eye coordination, can get photos and try to draw them as accurately as possible

dont expect to draw it perfectly the first time

can start with simple objects first

[bright copper]

I’ve been doing that

mostly with berserk panels

[noble wasp]

hmm...if you want, can show here side by side to see what went wrong

[bright copper]

alright!

One minute

[noble wasp]

ok. give me a second

[bright copper]

last one isn’t finished

[noble wasp]

for this one, you can see the proportion is not accurate

thats why it looks a bit weird

[bright copper]

ok

[noble wasp]

this one, you can see that the angles are not accurate

[bright copper]

I know that one

[noble wasp]

also has some scaling issue,

the objects around guts dont look like bigger than him. i suspect it's because the details of the tree trunk

and the other trees

[noble wasp]

this one not bad

the crosshatching and shading looks good

at least the technique

[bright copper]

Thanks

[noble wasp]

only thing of note is the shape of the ear. from what i see, it's really mainly proportion issues

can measure more next time

good luck

[bright copper]

Thank you!

[lone wagon]

Not done yet but do you guys think the wheat is fine or it's too much? I wanna put wheat somewhere but don't want it to be too overpowering. Been staring at this piece too long now I'm unsure.

Yeah still a lot to do.

[dusky trail]

need more eyes

[hardy yew]

Beautiful! Di molto! Inspirational!

[dusk haven]

idk if anyone knows how to code mods for dont starve but ive got the art covered ;-;

[bright copper]

Hey y’all. I’m working on a thing but the lighting on the clouds feels… off. What do I need to add?

Wait I’m stupid I forgot about shadows

bro why did I decide to draw each individual blade of grass

[shadow nebula]

Character design wip

[bright copper]

It looks really nice! I like the outfit

[lone wagon]

Grazie mille jojo!

How very helpful that Italian is the only language I'm learning right now. I take this as another sign to move there.

[lone wagon]

I take that as the wheat is fine. Yes she has eyes on her arms but the problem is that the pose on my piece is not the right angle to show the eyes

I can just make it up and add an eye randomly xD

[lone wagon]

io sono imparando italiana.

Scusa non sto bene

Hope i said that right. I will find out hopefully. Dulingo becoming useful

[dusky trail]

but then it probably translate as you like some weird snack

[lone wagon]

No no I'm confident! But tbh the only Italian there was di molto. The rest was English so I can't really brag about it. XD

[dusky trail]

meanwhile i just force Silver Wolf's hand aside so i can see more of her pant

[lone wagon]

I love silverwolf

So far I have all the exclusive banner characters.

Very disappointed in jing tbh I don't like his playstyle regret getting him. Could've saves that fir another character oh well. I got my seele and silverwolf. I'm happy

[dusky trail]

i just gonna avoid the guy and get the girl only anyway

specially Kafka

[lone wagon]

I wanna get luocha

I got jing out of curiosity because people were hype over him

But I think I prefer my C4 Seele

XD

With my adorable silverwolf

I want luocha for them amazing healing skills so I can take out gepard since I can't use my seele to her potential with a tank and healer! Only need one

Was originally gonna draw seele but changed my mind

The aeons have such a cool design

[lone wagon]

I really like the purple shade for her long hair in star rail. She looks so mature in star rail than impact 3rd

[verbal marten]

Kek bye

[lone wagon]

Do you use a lot of motion blur?

[verbal marten]

Uh not really

[hardy yew]

Hahahaha! It’s okay my friend! I hardly even know Italian! I just use what little I know to compliment people

[lone wagon]

Di molto means by a lot. You said "beautiful! By a lot! Inspirational!" I thought you were Italian trying to learn English trying to make it make sense lmao xD

What did you think di molto meant?

[hardy yew]

I know what di molto means And bellissimo, I know a few other words too but not fluent at all

[lone wagon]

Me too, are you also learning?

[hardy yew]

Yeah

I know all the swear words-

[left siren]

That sir/ma'am is a glitch effect

You can achieve in many ways

[shadow nebula]

Thank you!

[lone wagon]

Do you use photoshop?

[left siren]

You can do glitch affects outside photoshop

[lone wagon]

I use clip studio so probably why it's different. It looks similar to the motion blur on clip studio

[left siren]

That's just the glitch effect giving the impression of blur

[lone wagon]

I didn't aak more since I forgot it's different in all programmes

They may be the same but they they can't really copy each other so they change it slightly.

[lone wagon]

I added them eyes. Hows it now? Not even in the right places but now it looks more like her so it's fine!

[dusky trail]

may look more fun if you let them more focus on single point, like the bottom one is slightly look up while the top one look down

[lone wagon]

I did that because I wanted it to follow the direction of the eyes on yaoshi's face

Liek they're watching you and staring into your soul

[dusky trail]

soul? what is it? can you eat Pom-Pom with it?

well just test it out by shift the pupil a bit, because they all the same that make them feel rather static

[lone wagon]

Oh I've not shaded them yet and I won't show the progress again until I'm done. I wanna enter it in the competition so trying my best not to show it too often. I have a phobia of art thief's

But yes I'll take your advice I need to make the pupils eyeballs better I just wanted to show you that I took the suggestion with them eyes.

The eyes really help with the triangle composition that I wanted to achieve and it directly makes it focus on the eyes and eyes only. So thank you

Glad I added them in

[oblique wing]

are there any methods to add shadow for dark outfits?

[lone wagon]

Lots of methods to add shadows.

[shadow nebula]

You just need to work with the values so make your shadows darker.

[lone wagon]

Oh, they meant how you work with shadows? I thought they meant the methods as in the tools you can use to apply shadows, like the lasso tool.

[bright copper]

Can y’all give me an idea of something to draw? I have some ideas but they’re all too hard for me to draw

[hardy yew]

What would you consider too hard for you to draw?

[bright copper]

clothes and exact proportions are just

bleugh

I need practice but like rn I don’t feel like trying to do all that

[main wren]

well person, animal or mineral?

[bright copper]

to be honest I haven’t drawn animals really ever thinking about it

Also what do you mean by mineral?

@main wren

[main wren]

you could always draw something that isn't anything you would normally draw

one of the three fullerenes of Carbon

[bright copper]

Well I don’t draw often at all so like a lot of things apply to that

[main wren]

a tin crystal

[bright copper]

I’m very new to art n stuff

[main wren]

could try going for the dictionary

[bright copper]

Eh?

pick a letter, pick a page, pick a number, draw whatever it is

[bright copper]

[bright copper]

Hey y’all. Do you have a good place to find poses/references? I can’t draw well without a reference for the poses of the characters

[shadow nebula]

there are quite a lot. For poses without nudity you can use adorkastock, jookpubstock, the pose archives, and many others. If you're okay with nudity then just google pose references. And as the saying goes you are your best model

[solar bough]

what ever this thing i made in blender

[noble wasp]

Always use reference, thats how you improve fast

https://line-of-action.com/

If you just cant decide what pose, or just want to draw randomly

[celest notch]

[half obsidian]

Hehe

[celest notch]

finally

i made 4 color version of this lmao

i can't choose which is the best 😭

[hardy yew]

Its either the blue one or the yellow in my opinion

[hardy yew]

Or maybe like a violet color

[hardy yew]

And also bc the blue and the yellow make the details more noticeable

[fallow thicket]

hi I wanna ask for a color study, which other colors go well for contrasting with red hair aside from yellow, orange, purple or blue? (like using the color to shade hair just like how I observed some artists using orange colors to shade blue hair) I just wanna know which colors are usually used to shade red to give off a contrast? thanks

[shadow nebula]

you can use blue and green

[left siren]

Try watching a video about Color harmony

They ain't complicated to understand

[fallow thicket]

Tysm guys this really helps

[glad sentinel]

hello! how's this as a summer skin? should i change anything?

[left siren]

Face

Move the nose and mouth lower

[rancid niche]

Wow thats so good

[left siren]

this is an easy way to do head proptions

just half each point of the face and put the eyes, nose, and mouth to where the points are

also flip your drawing occasionally, so that it wont look whack like this

if you dont know when that "occasionally" is, just finish the sketch first and then flip it to find some mistakes or corrections needed

then do some corrections on the vertical proportions

you can sort of see the difference

wow thats actually a very noticable difference

[broken wigeon]

Soo kinda like this?

[left siren]

Wrong half

[left siren]

Half of the head is where the eyes go

Half of the eyes to the chin is where the nose goes

Half of the nose to the chin is where the mouth goes

You got the mouth and nose mixed up

This is also too high

Move the nose here

Move the mouth here

Move the curve so that it aligns with the nose or in between the mouth and the nose

Also love the eyes abit lower

What you can also do is just move the chin up to shorten the face and just do the same adjustments as mentioned before

[broken wigeon]

I changed it like this now

[left siren]

The proportions is better but that chin curve is too sharp

[broken wigeon]

Ok, thanks for the help

[lone wagon]

Your face shape is too angled. You're trying to draw a face that's looking forward instead of to the side so the chin looks off. The chin should follow the direction of the neck and the direction her body is facing.

The facial features are also too high but I think it's because the chins is really long.

[lone wagon]

This one is similar to the direction of your piece. Its always important to find references to help you if you don't understand. See how they've done the chin? It follows the direction of the body therfore the chin should be more forward, it should be in front of the neck almost since its facing the side, but since your head is slightly tiltiled to look forward, it doesn't quite reach in front of the neck.

[broken wigeon]

Is it better like this

[dusky trail]

you may want to do something about her eye more

right now it looks like they stare at different direction

[visual cargo]

Yoo ._.

I'm drawing a pose

Yep

hey y’all. I’m trying to draw himeko but I can’t get the eyes right. Help.

[crimson heath]

Marbch Sebenth

[dusky trail]

well what are you trying to do here? is she just looking downward?

[bright copper]

Yes but I’m a bit stupid

[dusky trail]

well then you should title her head to the right a bit first

it will be more balance this way

otherwise it just look like she try to look at her shoes

[bright copper]

that’s da point

[bright copper]

But that’s the goal

[dusky trail]

that is rather odd choice...

then sideway would be easier choice for people to know that is she looking down

then again, she can't see her feet while standing up anyway

not with that huge chest of her

[bright copper]

lmao

[lone wagon]

Finished this piece after a long hiatus lol. Feels like been working on it for ages but really I was just lazy

[lone wagon]

I understand that part, its just the legs. But you're not done yet so u might already be aware.

[runic juniper]

Would this be an accurate depiction of the side view?

[left siren]

This made me realize I can never make a funny derpy stickman again

[grave nymph]

I'm gonna die linearting this won't I

[left siren]

Just color and clean your sketch then

[grave nymph]

NO

I did that last time I made a manga and it looks dirty 😭

that's when I learned you have to have defined lines when it comes to manga w

[lone wagon]

I mean... I guess? Lmao xD

[lone wagon]

Not seen you in ages

[grave nymph]

yeahh

i've been like

drawing for almost 3 weeks straight

just to finish this manga thing I've been working for hhhh

still am sad you didn't ping me when you made a twt account so I can be your first follower

[dusky trail]

2 old peoples meeting after decade, what a heart warming scene

[grave nymph]

a decade 😭

[lone wagon]

Sorry I feel bad pinging people to follow me on twitter. I want people to follow me because they decide they want to on their own. I don't wanna force anyone.

Also made a pixiv... might make an Instagram today and maybe others too depends on how tired I am when I finish work xD

[grave nymph]

ah that's okay w

[grave nymph]

ooooo

that reminds me to actually post in my pixiv but am too lazy hh

[dusky trail]

meanwhile, some of my lame gag about HSR and Hi3 blow up

[celest notch]

quick tip - fuck linart, start coloring under the sketch

[celest notch]

prob because the lineart is black

use a dark saturated color it works 👍👍

you can color the sketch on alpha lock too

and blend it out later

lineart may look good if done correctly but it takes a soul to finish

[grave nymph]

...this is a black and white manga

[celest notch]

then just clean up the sketch

It looks good

using ligher and darker mono colors also works great

for sketch

depending on the hair/clothes

[grave nymph]

uhm

I literally linearted the past 6 pages with a specific brush

[celest notch]

but its just an idea

[grave nymph]

if I just clean my sketch then it would be hella inconsistent

[celest notch]

well then good luck

i gave up on lineart long ago and wouldnt be able to come back to it 😭

[dusky trail]

you can still go no lineart with greyscale anyway

[celest notch]

there is a thing where you make important panels more detailed with a small change of style

[dusky trail]

well part of the main focus of the manga usually the joke itself anyway

https://www.hoyolab.com/article/17806861

just look at how cheap my joke it and it still manage to get that many views

some how

[grave nymph]

mmmm

getting there

[grave nymph]

not really my preference shrugs

this is like one of the finished lineart for a single panel

[lone wagon]

My favourite part of the whole drawing process is the lineart

XD

[left siren]

Coloring more fun

[lone wagon]

Everyone is different

[grave nymph]

I like sketching more :”D

[left siren]

Carpal tunnel better

Sore legs also pretty good

Coping with a not strong device that it can't handle long/multiple strokes in a short period pf time is the best imo

[lone wagon]

I personally hate colouring and sketch I get the most stressed xD linesrt for me is the chill part since u don't have to think much about perspective and anatomy since you've already done that in the sketch and you don't need to worry about the colours yet since you've also done a rough thought trhoufh the sketch also

For me the lineart is the chill before the storm

[left siren]

How do you get stressed at sketching

It's like the part where you actually don't get to care what it looks like

[lone wagon]

U have to think about anatomy, composition, perspective, u actually have to think about making it fit the canvas size and think about the colours and eveeything. I do all of that in the sketch phase

For me the sketch is my most complex part

[left siren]

Those are like the basics

Trying to make it dynamic is a different story

[lone wagon]

I do all of that in sketch. Dynamic part too

[lone wagon]

This is my sketch. This is what a sketch looks like to me.

This is my most simplist one I've done recently yet too

[left siren]

Sketch process only worries about composition, this part doesn't incorporate much about Perspective or anatomy, these two should be emphasized in either the inking/coloring process

[lone wagon]

Also another sketch I did

[left siren]

That don't look like a sketch

Where's the mess

[lone wagon]

It's my neater sketch. I do 3 different layers of sketch

Sometimes most od the time 2 now

[left siren]

Sketch supposed to be just to give you the general idea and then you go on to refine that

[lone wagon]

I do that to get everything ready and sorted in the sketch phase so I don't have to worry about changing much in the lineart stage

You don't have to. Just because that's the "basics" on paper doesn't mean you have to follow it

Step by step

You do whatever makes your life easier

[left siren]

No wonder why you find sketching a pain, you're already trying to do the details on the sketching phase

[lone wagon]

Yes I have 3 steps. The rough sketch, the more refined sketch and sometimes the final sketch then lineart

This makes it much easier for my lienart stage where I think more about how I want my lines to look to compliment my colours

So I don't have to stress about it when it's suppose to be nice and neat foe the colours

So my anatomy and perspective, the dynamics and even the thought process about how I want my lighting to go is already sorted so the rest is easier. I find it that makes it faster too for me

[left siren]

Just take your initial sketch and refine that a bit so you can immediately go to the lineart or coloring

It's less work than going over the lines like 3 or 4 times

[lone wagon]

Why? I see it as common practise. I'm not the only one who does this. The more complex your drawing is the more you wanna do during the sketch phase to make it easier for the more neater steps. It depends on your art style too. Not everyone wants a final piece that looks like a painting. And it depends on everyone's thought process too. Not everyone wants to go to lineart immediately. Just because I said my sketch is the most stress doesn't make me hate it, it's just the step that takes the most time for me because I I want my lineart and colours to be chill. I wanna plan all the complex things in the stage where being messy is okay then when I'm certain about it u can continue without worries.

It's okay to be messy during the sketch phase so it's the best time in my opinion to change things however u like without having to worry about not liking it and having to change it when it's fully coloured later on.

[left siren]

You can do all of that with the method I mentioned, the one I mentioned just cuts your work in half. I know people who goes over the lines multiple times but that honestly just too much work, the sketch doesn't really affect your lineart since the inking process is meant to be a cleaner more refined version to begin with, sketch is just there to guide you, so it can be used to whatever art style you want it to be. So in your case, you can still do whatever you do it's just a different sketch process

The method I mentioned just saves time

[lone wagon]

My sketch r different, the rough sketch is where I get my ideas quickly on the page, in this stage i think about anatomy mainly getting the basics down. Then I do the more refined step sketch. In this sketch I start to think about hair, clothing, lighting, perspective, composition. And add small details to make it more interesting and dynamic. In this stage its still very rough, then the final sketch. Which is where I make things really start to look more detailed and I start shifting stuff around to make my anatomy make sense. In this stage it's good enough to start to plan colours too and start to plan out more about the lighting and start maybe thinking about the textures and colour composition. Then it's the lineart but tbh sometimes I want my art to look a bit more rough so i don't even go to lineart. In the sketch phase I've already planned exactly what I wanna do and what I need to do. So the rest is pretty chill.

[left siren]

Welp you do you, I just think that going over the sketch multiple times is pretty tedious as drawing is already a pretty tedious process, Just find it easier to refine the sketch and add representations of details and then move on to the other process faster

[lone wagon]

It's not going over the sketch multiple times, its adding a little bit more details to your sketch and shifting it around where you can when it's still in the rough stages so you can be certain there aren't any mistakes later on. It's a good prevention from realising you've fked up the whole anatomy when you've almost finished making the most beautiful lineart you've done yet or even worse when you've almost finished colouring. It's also a really good stage to plan your colours. You can't really plan your colours when your work still looks like a deformed potato and ik u can plan during the linesrt stage but I'd rather not mess around planning things halfway through.

You can mess things up however you want in the sketch phase because it's so easy to change, it's a much more frustrating and annoying experience when you've realised you messed something up after you've almost finished the piece because it's a lot more annoying to change.

[lone wagon]

I'm no professional artist who's spent 60 years of their life practising their craft. I can't draw something perfect with a blind fold on. I'd rather not be so bold as to try do something professionals can do when I'm not a professional. I wanna take things step by step, making sure I can get things right before going to finalise it with lineart and colours. Maybe eventually I'll get to the stage where I can go from a potato sketch straight to lineart but I can't unfortunately I'm not that skilled. I'd rather be safe than sorry lol. I'm finding it a lot easier too to learn things that are more complex when I do things like this. Like I said everyone different ti me this way is easier might not be for u though.

I am slowly dying oh god

[edgy cairn]

I need some help, I’ve been drawing for a while now and my coloring really hasn’t improved, it’s very blocky and weird any tips to help me improve in coloring (and maybe in understanding how to draw anatomy too?)

[dusky trail]

it should be easier for other to help if you show us your drawing first

[edgy cairn]

I’m working on coloring right now but it’s not quite done (I combine all layers and liquify errors at the end so) but I can send it in a sec

also if you just search up my messages in this server you’ll find the old drawings very fast

I’ve been working towards more realistic than anime-like style

if you don’t wanna bother I can send it tho

The best way to improve at colouring and anatomy is to study from photos and life. You’ll learn how everything works and how colours blend together on real objects. For colour I’d recommend first starting with value studies which is doing a study of a photo or person/object in grayscale. For anatomy I’d recommend learning to do gesture drawings. Find a good reference photo with good lighting of someone with little to no clothes on and do quick gesture drawings of them.

To add to anatomy make sure you understand landmarks and how everything aligns while you do the gestures

[edgy cairn]

is the pose anatomically correct tho? Looks a bit off

[shadow nebula]

arms are too long and the head/neck are slightly off center

i am currently in artblock era so heres a Hofi redesign doodle

Honestly if you want your drawings to be more on Realism, the best and probably the only way to do it is looking at references and replicating that

Or if you want a Semi Realism look, which is a mix between stylized and realism. You're still gonna need references for that

There's plenty of tutorials in YT that explains how to do that

[ionic birch]

Captains I need help tail things or no tail things

[edgy cairn]

first time actually trying to draw with a difficult perspective, it looks really off help?

[edgy cairn]

tail

[shadow nebula]

For the body you've drawn the character leaning back while in the photo the person is slouching. We can see a portion of the back in the photo. Also the individual is slightly turned away from the camera while your character is almost fully facing it. If you want the face to also match the photo then you need to angle everything down and have the facial features follow the curvature of the skull.

[tulip oasis]

anything i should fix

[sharp swallow]

the left hands bend feels unnatural (if it is natural that looks REALLY uncomfortable) but its pretty dang good

[tulip oasis]

Thnk uuu i have a problem with drawing the hand thoo

[celest notch]

just unbend it a little and it should be fine

[edgy cairn]

I decided just to scrap the entire body but now I’m just trying to draw poses n none of them look good, help?

[long tangle]

spooder!

[shadow nebula]

I'd recommend you go for simple poses with little perspective to them. You can also look for poses from the pose archives on twitter since they have both male and female versions.

[hardy yew]

Slowly but surely making it

[lunar sonnet]

Need help with figuring out the composition of this whole thing.

[vague trout]

Damn people in the art channel are cooking

Cook some more y’all I like the recipes

[ionic birch]

Anatomy gods help me I need to know if this looks ok

I haven’t drawn a jawline in like a year

[long tangle]

sketchies:)

[bright copper]

I’m tryna draw mei laying down in some really casual baggy stuff but have no idea how to draw normal clothes lmao

btw the sketch is off cuz I realized I made the legs too far apart

[left siren]

Is that ibis paint

[bright copper]

Yes

[left siren]

Phone or pc

[bright copper]

tablet

[left siren]

So still the mobile version

[bright copper]

yea

[left siren]

I would recommend some easy to use programs for PC but since you're using the mobile version, there really not that much apps that's better and easy to use than ibispaint

You're very limited without the proper equipments

[bright copper]

ok

anyway can I have advice on the thing

[left siren]

Give her an hour glass shape

Also recommend watching some tutorials about guidelines for drawing characters

[bright copper]

Anything on drawing folds or creases in clothes

[left siren]

There's plenty of that in yt aswell, clothes aren't really the easiest to explain

I could like stay here to teach you an hour long lesson about that but nobody got that much time for that, it's better to actually just watch a tutorial about clothing and folds and stuff

https://youtu.be/QdCcB8SXudo

[bright copper]

Alright thanks!

God I have no idea what I’m doing

[noble wasp]

it's okay, everyone like that at the start

[left siren]

Yeah well that's art

It's just trial and error

And muscle memory I suppose

It could probably take you years to make something absolutely satisfactory

[bright copper]

I have no idea how to draw cleavage

[runic juniper]

You don’t have to overly pronounce it! Something like this with a shadow is all you need most of the time ^^

[bright copper]

Alr thanks!
Rn I’m putting that off because it is looking goofy and I was feeling unmotivated but this made me realize an easier way to do it

[runic juniper]

Yeah glad I could help!

[runic juniper]

Tried to find a good reference 😅

[bright copper]

Time to figure out how to draw clothes

[edgy cairn]
