Well idk if i hit myself or i ask you to hit me
Next time I'll phrase it right,ty for understanding
said the guy regularly got slap by AI-chan
Well that's cuz i say curse words, ai chan don't like that
I'll add to this by saying, don't give unsolicited critiques. This goes for several people in this chat. You might be well meaning but in the art community its actually quite rude and off putting
sai clearly staring at me there sob sob
^^❗
When I post in this channel I'm generally looking for critiques cuz I'll get some knowing the people here.. but it's not necessarily the same for others 
others as well. If you have nothing good to say and the artist hasn't asked for a critique then say nothing
if you want a critique make sure to say it. This is a wip and art discussion channel not a critique channel
Be like me, I barely have any free time to even read what the hell is going on here everyday
and you wonder why
but well, Aki just have to hit his "ban for bad word" daily quota i guess
Oh he's muted again 
Anyways.. before I forget the seele cosplay arrived
the seller forgot to put in the chains and gloves so I'm waiting for that 🗿
that cat is still too thin, you need to feed it some more before harvest is hair
He's just a baby... 
i still personally like Seele based outfit than Nymph
Which one?
probably because that umbrella looking skirt that bother me
This was the only one I could find 
Like miku style..
This one doesn't have sleeves either though 🤔
I like both
She's so cute 
Also this has been mentioned multiple times by other ppl.. I could just take off the petticoat but it looks rly weird without it 
I'll send a pic a bit later cuz I'm out rn
well it most like her overall outfit is feel stiff to me~ the umbrella skirt, the puff shoulder pad, all the chains
it just not as fluffy as her Shallowtail
then again Shallowtail suppose to be a more nimble Seele
Hmm
I don't rly wanna change her outfit too much.. 
So pretty
I wonder if I should buy thing highs for this.. they don't come with 
Kekeke western danganronpa cosplayers wouldnt agree
Im so used to sn cheongsam that I forgot how the original sn looks like
Which one is that 
Sn's first outfit
Ohh
That ones pretty too 🙏
the "i wish you can swap between two Seele so i can stare at the other one anytime i want" version
I am starting to become like this.
I still watch anime and read manga almost daily
But i only have timr and engery for my art only in the weekends now

When i comr back from work everyday I'm like a zombie
well at least the amount of anime i want to watched nowaday is quite less in compare
only few in each seasons i care enough to watch
Lmao yeah
Must be good to have supportive parents. I would have way more time for art if my parents actually believe that art could make me a career
Last weekend I was working on my art and my mum got furious, I spent almsot all day on it. And she came to me and was like you're an adult ans you're still drawing
How pathetic are you
Being an adult and drawing?
She thinks it's onyl for children, they rally underestimate art it's infuriating
well that is normal~ i do some minor stuff for money to so my parents won't complain too much
but ya, stuff like art is not something people willing to treat as a job
I told them that I'll work while practising and home instead of going to uni. I sacrafice uni for my art while working and they agreed with me. But now that they're seeing me make money from not doing art they're extremely happy . However when they see me draw in my spare time
They get annoyed
They just dislike art in general
They hate being proven wrong, if i prove them wrong by making money woth art they're going to become salty
well it is hard for older generation to imagine you can get money from art like now after all
the same way they treat cartoon/anime as something just for kid
but let ignore all the violent visual it can bring
Yeah my parents thinks anime is for kids too. So one day I decided to play adult content anime on the big screen in thr living room
They nevee thought that again
so you finally show them Boku no Pico, you monster
I was like, mum maybe we should show your friend's toddler this anime
After all its just for kids am I right
well, sadly just like me, my parents are stubborn type so no matter what kind of stuff i show
give it a few day and they just bring up how anime and figurine are kid thing
even if it is bishoujo figurine
Games are so popular now days the industry is going to grow evenmore, concept artist and illustrationist are gonnahave way more opportunities i wish your parents understood that
And if you don't want to work in the industry you can do freelance and delay is a example of how it can make you a living
They know that but they never see anime liek games that make it big
They're like, if you're gonna draw why draw anime?
Why not do realism?
it is never easy to change people view from what they never try out
My mum keeps telling me. You're not gonna make money by drawing anime
show them genshi,game how took all the awards this year
You didn't invent anime, it's already been done many times
people like that don't care if a game won an awards
You think you're gonna make it big by drawing anime like everyone else? It's not unique at all
you an literally show them a game that sold for billion and that won't change they view
Then start socials hanami,if you wait for the right moment to do so it's never gonna come, the faster you get recognition the beter
They're gonna be like
because unlike you, Hanami is too old now
Art you telling me that you made £20 today? So what? Are you gonna make that amount everyday? No
Rn I'm more popular then you even tho your art is way better and it's only cuz i post my stuff
So what if you make money its not as much as how much you normally get in a NORMAL JOB
You tell them I'm gonna make even more
But plsake socials i beg you
Your art is too good to not be posted online
plsake, is that a short word for "pls, for god sake"
I just dont like much popular social media cuz they're filled with spoilt children
Who pretend to be a hero for some likes
you just have to hang out with weirdo more
..
JUST START IT HANAMI
like here we have artist draw about how they are saving up for the fav horse girl
And when I tell them how wrong they are and that they're idiots and I'd do whatever I want
They're gonna have tantrums
I see so many artists apologize to these idiots online and im like
For every spoilt child there is a potential customer, so unless you have a really good network of connections irl building a social media following will only help you
I'm on socials for 4 months now, no one touched me... They are not gonna bully you straight away
Why why the hell would you do that?
They all try to get free art anyways and call you evil for not giving them free art
Exactl,nowmake socials hanami
And then you say your parents view the world with Short eyes or how you say that
That seems like a pretty negative view on it, I'm speaking from the perspective of someone who is living off art if that helps 
Or they be like ill pay you with EXPOSURE
until your build enough fanbase and they will instantly bully back that negative one that is
Social media os the best way to earn money as freelanc,like it or not
I'm not confident with my art yet I still think I'm sht
Until I can colour and get better I won't yet
SO WHAT
Hanami is indirectly roasting Aki again
I'm literally the same as you
Ppl like to see you grow on socials
but people still follow me because of my trashy art
THAT'S INTERESTING PART
just start a Twitter account Hanami-sensei
I'd be fighting to be your first follower 👀
because there a taste for everyone, even for Shii
I have like 6k views on my art and I'm shit but ppl see it
I'd advertise your account like a crazy fan
but well, it is never bad to have one even when you still learning
Just start it come on waves lightsticks
it is fun to see how your art progress over the years
mhm
Yes
you can also treat your account like an archive
My bf good with computers, I'm waiting for him first. My main reason is cuz I'd end up getting hacked
...
just verify phone
set up 2fa
don't click suspicious links
and you're good '-')b
those are the basic yet solid steps for protecting your account owo)b
then you should change passwords
ASAP
said Shii after he clicked all my "sus" link
Ao im waiting until my current one is less busy cuz I ain't good with keeping myself secure online
Anyways gotta go back to work now
It's sus though I trust sensei so isoke owo)b
it's not like I never seen those kinds of arts in my entire life anyways
If im gonna start opening up art accounts properly I need to make sure I can keep myself safe first
Hope you have a good day then sensei '-')b
1 more thing befor you go do you want to be concept artist or illustrationist
well i have to deal with plenty of weird comments back in DA, only really response if they actually make a point
I wish you good luck with the new accounts if you decide to start them!
like that weird "father of 2 kids" ranting about how my art is unsafe and waste of my talent
and i just show "well i have a completely normal and safe" art folder right here that you clearly didn't check yet
and boi, i sure draw innocent looking stuff back then

but well, you have all the right to ignore or reject the stuff you don't want to deal with
i draw over 10 years now and you expect me to remember that?
but if you check my pixiv then it about 3-4 months in
as for the follow, who know, since that was back when i still in DA
but i just set it up early without care
I'm wondering when i should post it,ik it's still not the time but I'm just wondering
there is no harm on setting up early
not like the moment you set it up, ppl gonna flood in to ask for it
just set up the rule of what you want for commission and leave it there to dry
I see ppl in da post a picture of taking comms and they display their works on that picture,i wanna do it to when i get some good works
in DA there is that journal thingy
that you can pin so it always on top
most people use that to set up commission page
or just do it in their about's section
Okay I'll do one more artwork and then I'll set it up
Ei ei
Setup multiple art pages in fb, Twitter, da, pixiv, and even Instagram. The more exposure you get the more likely ppl will see your art and eventually someone will come to you and ask for a commission
Be confident but also self aware
Yshould, there's tons of art groups iut there
In fb
You can join them and advertise your artworks
Np, my first social platform for art was DA but it didn't click for me. Probably because the drawings I made before doesn't fall into the popular genre so I went to fb and built up my rep and clients there. Went to Twitter, did the same thing, and now pixiv. Planning to go to fiver next year too.
more sites also reduce the chance of them banned or closed down
like DA and then Tumblr did to me...
thouggh in Tumblr's case, it is a self-destruct
"Hey~ let removed all the art that make up 80% of our community~"
I'm not fond of insta because of its mobile format. I just can't be bothered to save my art on my phone and upload art through mobile.
anybody have a good picture or guide that tells you how to color clothing folds? 
isn't one of the "sus" link i throw you have a clothe guide's book
good, then you can ask them to translate it for you

You can also look up references similar to what you want
what are good sites to try and find references anyways?
can't use pixiv since no premium
trying to type in keywords though nothing useful shows up quite often
Look up professional modelling photos or the specific article of clothing you’re trying to draw and find a photo that has a similar pose
It’ll take a bit of searching to find what you want but thats better than possibly using a drawn reference thats incorrect
until google lead you astray
If you’re learning i recommend staying away from using drawn references unless they are done by a professional artist who studies realism
well just try not get in a habit of using too much reference
you may became too depend on it to think outside of the box
I actually have the opposite problem
You should always use references, there is no such thing as too much
the [Not having enough references]
Many ppl don't understand the importance of realism
and I often try to just wing it w
I'm too dumb for it www
ya but sometime we have those to depend on it and have to find the exact pose, angle to even draw
If you get realism down it opens so much more
Professional artists will always use a reference no matter how much they’ve studied. Its why drawings without references typically look a little weird
just try to able to see 3D out of that reference
like how Aki got stucked in that reference because he unable to tell how the body behave under the jacket
Thats something you learn through learning figures and anatomy. You can’t expect someone who only just started to know. Thats a very advanced step
that reminds me to start doing gesture studies
well we did told him to practice framing reference from time to time
Kim jong gi is typing...
Idk what you mean by framing since framing in art is referee to the composition
anyway, i gonna go focus on my stuff, do want to finish this draw today
He’s spent years studying but i don’t doubt that he still uses references from time to time
It takes a lot of detarmination to do gesture studies for me, they all look like shit when i do it and i feel like it doesn't teach me anything
Its going to look bad for a long time. Mine look terrible but i see improvement as i work
Decades, i admire him, every artist does
I'll start doing them daily, no excuses
I do them daily as well
Also since i do traditional art as well,when im not home in school and in art class
I noticed that i stuggle with composition
I CAN'T GET IT LIKE EVER
Let me send a pic
Learn rule of thirds and golden ratio
I guess composition’s basically where/what place you put stuff so it looks good
what are you even aiming for anyways
Well its one object so its more like a sketch randomly thrown on a page
yep
Idl how that line appeared on her face
This one is a wip and idk if composition is ok
To know how to use composition you need to understand rule of thirds and golden ratio until then you won’t have a good grasp on it
yup
Okay I can't focus on too kuch stuff at once, I'm still on learning human head...
But ill throw gesture drawings in
I'm impressed, it's been over a month and I still like the oc design that I did
How is this possible?
There's stuff I wanted to change but I still like it!
And aki I wanted to do a bit of both
I like character designong I think its fun
But i also love illustrating
I think im more of an illustrator though since I only really like character designing. I hate having to do concept arts for other things like backgrounds of the world aka world building, or objects like weapons, vehicles houses etc..
then watch a link i sent you
it will motivate you for everything and FOR MAKING SOCIALS
@lone wagon
you can always having fun slowly building up the world along side your OC
like say, your OC has a special bed or chair she love to sit and that will set there is a bed on her room
just slowly putting in detail on that world along with your OC's habit and you will slowly build up a room
and there you go, you will have your background
the more you build around your OC, the more that world will expand
specially if you didn't made your OC for a large world in the first place
another fun way to do it is "my diary" format
just make like your OC showing the viewers what she doing that day so you too can get the idea of how thing happen around your OC
@dusky trail follow your advice, it looks great 
More curve added makes pose looks better
could probably put her crotch or filled up the skirt gap there
Ay, didn't noticed that
I'll do
there also that one uncolor gap between her left knee and the skirt there
actually, why is there various white spot around her?
Selection tool messed up
lol
Just a rough sketch, no need to be precise
well ya you can fill in manually later
though you didn't make the background color to just be in separated layer so it will be under everything?
it also a good way to help spot any weird left over spot when you color thing later
Background are seperated, the colour one is only one layer that's why i use Selection Tool alot
i usually separated skin/clothe/metal/hair/face color into separated layers
just incase i fuk it up then i don't have fix too much
it also easier to shade later
like say the hoodie there, if i separated the yellow part from the outfit, i can just dump the color bucket in for shading later
You really want me to open up art accounts ahah
he is lonely, he just want someone to add in his non-existent friend list
Would try that, i usually minimum the layer count
meanwhile... my over 200 layers draw..
over 200?!
if your cpu isnt that strong sure but if it lifts, go ham with layers
PC would turn into vacuum cleaner
i draw variant set style so i can have more than one facial features
sometime even different body part like open hand, grip hand and so on
Ahh so harshh i wish someone saved me from this disaster
ohh
i’m still not sure how that would make over 200.. that’s crazy 
Hanami watch the vid in your free time, he's gonna put it better then me
because my style of color require me to put in various layers to stack on each other like this
like their hair alone already took 3-4 layers
and so, when i draw something with this many colors, it can created a lot of layers
i see.. how does whatever device you’re using handle that 
it is a $900 PC i saved up after few years
don't want to keep using my brother's second hand laptop
makes sense
i see it was worth it
even for scenes I rarely use over 30 layers
i'm the overly careful type~
ever since i started painting i use like 10 to 20 layers
Fixed that crotch and white spots
looks nice
Thanks friend
just fix up the line and give her a bright and cheerful kind of background then you are good
Nice comic style 
Yep, im gonna proceed to next step
Thanks for advices friend
Wip 
UwU
mouse is a pain in the ass
but i wanted to redraw a screenshot from APHO 2
or at least sketch it out a bit
so
draw all that with a mouse is rather impressive
that shading style is really cool
simple but effective
imo I’d say that’s closer to semirealism
Looks nice! Sometimes I just want to colour but lineart takes 5 years to finish..
Stop getting distracted when doing it
XIAO AND ALBEDO? give me
Impressive 
your Twitter
Gonna take 5 years to finish. I don’t understand motivation
haha it's ok, just look at some more pretty eula art then get motivated 
What's your phone?
@lament stump happy belated birthday
trying to draw Nyx idol version
The crotch part looks off

just set a "risk" for yourself then you will have motivation
like say, give me 2800 gems if you didn't finish it by the end of the year
Give me all your money and belongings if you don't finish it by new year's
Rate?
legs are rather short for my liking so 7/10
though the way the short look, it certainly make it like the upper body is longer than the legs
ya but ty for the shirt, it cause the body feel longer while combo with the pant that feel like a short pant
it ended up make the torso seem long
Friend finished her drawing
here ya go
8/10, the knees are a bit low, but overall i really like it so far
anything that has to do with strawberry crepe cookie is usually good anyway 
timed studies (30 mins each)
nice lil redraw 
so much improvement 
Xiaomi Redmi note 9 pro
Ty


Should i color it
Yes yes !!
Is it good
the long looking neck makes it look rather stretchy
If you want. I think it would look good and it’s cute
Christmas Yun Jin 😊💕
check ear placement
and the bottom of the nose
also upper lip is significantly thicker than lower
This person obviously got lip fillers
Its trendy
Although I'd personally wouldn't want one
I hatelips
It's okay to draw them when head is facing forward but damn when it curves..
Um sure
Her head above the ear is bigger then i drew it
Should i make lower thicker or upper less thick, I'm not sure but I think lower thicker is the choice
The back of the head is too small and the ear needs moving a little I think
The head is not a perfect round shape
Sorry I'm on a bus so it's hard to draw it nicely on the phone
you really need to fix that weird habit of throw the ears all the way to the side of the head
not toooo brag hanamiii
but i saw it
ty tho I'll shange it up
i did that in 50min I'm starting to get faster, I'm exausted cuz of school so i wont draw anymore but tomorrow I'm literally going to try and finish it whole in 1 day, idk if it's possible for me but we'll see
Her forehead is quite flat and you rounded it
and the nostrils seem missing
maybe do some ear studies?
i did a rough earr cmonn
Nice but also maybe try practicing shading as well

yea it's going to be a fully shaded piece, just like my pfp :)
design is pretty cool! there are a couple things i'd fix though:
- her eye and mouth aren't centered on her face
- the hair is a little off from where the skull should be
- fingers are uneven and too sharp
- legs need a bit of fixing
Thanks
how is all that now?
is kamvas 13 a good drawing tab
check the nose structure in general
ye
i reccomend 16 inch vers if you have the budged tho
ear too low
even in that reference of your
you can see the ear is line up to her eye there
i fucused so much of getting it into a okay shape that i lost perspective of whole picture and that happend
it happens a lot :/
oh the ears a bit slanted too, if you rotate it a bit and line it up with the eyes properly it should be good
so which kamvas should i get
If you're just planing to draw at home, buy the 24" with qhd or uhd
If you want to take it elsewhere get the 16"
There are ppl who draw at home and office if they're an illustrator
im too scared of it breaking to bring it anywhere 
but silver
Yes?
that kind of money isn't avalible to everyone
But iirc syy said something like the budget isn't a problem the other day
ye ik, I'm just wondering how they got to 13 inch one if there's no limit
wait candz
your artist pro 16 arrived?
AND YOU DIDN'T SEND A PICTURE
time to bonk you

No, ibought a Samsung tab s7 instead
its in the box
im not gonna leave a 16 inch tablet on my desk while i study lmao
cant fit my textbooks
just google a picture

Finally doing some oc content
The sketch is crusty cause I transferred it from my notebook
no I stopped working on it for a bit cause I wanted to do zhongli bday art

isn't jinx's bang on the other side of her face or am i tripping out
o ok cuz i was so confused lmao
Pen is nc
i realised that her hair will cover up all the face if i didn't put the hair on onther said
i couldn't see your face reflecting from the tablet 0/10
stalker 👀
you could've said a doodle instead of that whole sentence but okayy
nah, spread armpit just not as special
But ye good pen, strong cpu, almost no perceptible pen lag
As shown in the vid
My main problem personally is that there's no keyboard forvshortcuts so inhavevto press them using pen which is a hassle
I already forgot the word doodle exist
does your skin press against the tablet and fucks it up cuz it's touch?
No, once it detects my pen, the tablet pretends my hand don't exist
And ye my palm is pressed on the tab
my dumb friend says that it makes a problem for him and he uses the same thing
thing as in tablet
it's the same tablet idk if it can happen
Never happened to mine so far
I draw with a normal writing position on my hand and it never detects my palm except when I put my pen away
I'll tell him his tablet should detect the pen and not his hand then lol
he uses the same thing, I'll go talk to him..
My parents said theyd prefer a cheaper one
get 16 then
Ahh then a 16" will do
The xp pen 16 pro dances around 400 bucks, not sure if they're having Xmas sale rn tho
12"
Ayy would u look at that
The 15.4-inch 1080p Full-Laminated screen of Artist Pro 16 drawing tablet offer realistic color accuracy up to 99% Adobe RGB. the new battery-free stylus Built-in high efficiency smart chip X3 will give you Our most natural pen on screen experience.
Well get em next time, son
tfw aki got screwed over by birth rng
If there's a best time to buy a tab it would be now
They say theyd prefer a more professional one over 500 (up to 800)
say no more
The XP-Pen Artist 24 Pro allows you to draw, color, doodle, and edit a digital image just as if you were painting an actual picture. 2560 x 1440 QHD resolution , 90% Adobe RGB, 2 red dial wheels and 20 shortcut keys , support tilt and pressure function .
this one same size but no shortcut buttons
only good thing about holidays is dem sales
artist 16 tp is i think 600 something and it's 4k with touch screen
but ig 24 inch is better then 4k 16
Yup
24 also sports qhd so its still better than fhd
...
ofc it does
every tablet that;s like over 400 has insane graphics compared to normal screens
lmao
i should probably get a pc but i wanna see how long my laptop could survive before it perishes on me
Extract as much performance and money as you can from your laptop before it retires
indeed
ill probably get a better computer or smt when i hit my college years, its too early right now to dump more money
that's what i did to my phone, poor guy died on me and he could've never been recharged again...
sob sob
look aki im not drawing dead ppl anymore, instead im drawing someone who takes care of the dead
all i can see is that someone is takeing care of her
ok
so in conclusion of my drwaing tablet thing
my parents said they wanna get this
out of all of it
Wacom Cintiq is a creative pen display that helps you bring your ideas to life on screen. Perfect for those who love to draw in their spare time or art/design students seeking a Premium on screen experience. This high resolution (1920x1080) drawing tablet with screen display comes with the super-...
good or no, ig?
theyre mainly doing it cause they can split payments into months
@onyx breach
@edgy cairn the xp pen artist 16 pro is better than this, don't buy this.
If you buy this you're only paying for the brand name
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/783078378872897608/924032443198087218/unknown.png
This one have way better specs than that.
for comparison
artist pro 16 | wacom 16
99% adobe rgb 92% adobe rgb
8 shortcut keys none (you can buy the wacom dial but thatll inflate the price even more)
2 scroll wheels 👆
other things not mentioned are specs that both are roughly equal to
lmao its like those people who buy gucci even though its just a normal item with a brand slapped on
Yes
not really, wacom has better software and less bugs as well as their drawing tablets last longer
welp i checked your specific details and i find them true, so i just decided to go with artist pro 16...
especially cause i also want to get it to create comics, so i also need to be able to afford clip studio paint ex
but are there alternative apps for comic making? i dont wanna spend 220 for one app
you can make comics in any program
Almost every drawing apps can create comics
yup
if you go with that tablet look into the bugs since you may have to deal with them
I guess CSP has some features that make it easier or something
i mean, ive dealt with a fair amount of bugs on my current ipad, im sure its better tho
my ipad lags a lot, and if i have over a certain amount of drawings in procreate it crashes a lot
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uj6mqgfOzoQ watch this and any others you're interested in before making a choice since it is quite the investment
My tech reviews: https://www.brad.site/
DISCOUNTS FOR MY COURSES: http://brad.site/learn/
I ran into some problems with this pen display. They improved the initial activation rate at the pen but it also seems like it took a step backwards in terms of the actual drawing quality. This isn't so much a review but my process of how I went about trou...
so, im honestly stuck with which i should get
i have until tomorrow specifically
well i also notice that you need to pay an extra 80$ for the stand for cintiq 16, which thats a downside but i can draw flat down i guess
watch some reviews and look into the bugs for both. Just one thing to keep in mind is that the reason wacom is more expensive is build quality, durability and overall better software with less bugs. Thats not to say that other brands are bad, they're good, but there is a reason wacom is still the best.
also what is an artist glove for
No, drawing flat on a pen display hurts your back tremendously
i dont see a purpose
It's to filter out the natural sweat your hand produces when drawing and keeps the screen from getting smudge
oh, i see
since ive never had a drawing tablet compatible to my computer, does the wacom work on this?
it works on any os
alright
i can confirm this
gonna get scoliosis from using my tablet to do hw zzzz
i dunno if my opinion matters as much but id rather have a “slightly worse” tablet (pro 16) over the wacom because its $140 cheaper
i wouldnt pay $140 for just some minor advantage yk
like even if it lasts a little longer that price is just 

you could always pay that $140 for a massage session
or just get a stand like a normal person (which i still havent done)
back pains speedrun
wacom was able to up their price not only because they had great hardware and softawre for their time but also because they didnt have any competition 2-3 years ago
now other companies are slowly crawling up their backs with touch screen displays, 4k screen with lower prices and better pen tech n softwares as well
medibang
What's afaik?
as far as i know
Draw lying down 
That habit started from doing hw lying down.. and then drawing on my phone lying down, then old ipad and it still stayed to this day 
Nop, not happening. I draw for 8-10 hrs in 1 sitting
You get used to it + I love what I do
I'm still waiting for that speed paint vid 😕
Soon
what kind of PS1 graphic is this
🤔
My friends first commission
so Shii following Aki's style and draw someone jump off the mountain
line up her right arm to her left leg and see what happen
unless you want to make it like they can totally walk on all 4 that is
but well, the way the arm also as big as the thigh also cause it to feel that way
so you could extend the hip length to gain some distant between the arm and legs
ooo
either make them about the same size or the hip longer than the chest
otherwise it will look really odd
probably because my style of head circle always for the face so the hair would take a lot more space
but that body is rather small and Shiibi like

as in, everything on the body?
if so then I can just enlarge it 
probably faster to just reduce the head size
???
i know but not really sure why
they did said because of bad word but.. what bad word?
odd
guess that is somewhat fine now
the butt
if we see the base of the left leg near the crotch
then the way the right leg up, it would dig right inside her crotch
faster to move the right leg down i guess
well leave it as it is would show a clear view of her crotch

well there always that option to move her body to the side
also, you can see the length between her hip to her butt there
so equal distances huh
seem fine to me~
does it look too stiff?
well it is a frame so it is fine to be stiff
you can add thing like curve and clothe to make it feel less stiff anyway
o
lengthen the pelvis a little more, it'll help the anatomy
no worries. You've made the pelvis very short, roughly the width of the thigh so move the legs down to lengthen it
to get a better idea, bend your legs and feel your hip and measure the distance
o
the ear is too far, jaw too long, eye doesns't match the angle and neither does the mouth, mouth is too small as well, forehead is too flat and vertical, and head in general is too big for the face
you also need to make the ear a little bit bigger to line up properly with the eye and eyebrow while remaining aligned with the base of the nose
is it better to start over then fix all that?
should also mention the tha chin is too far forward
thats up to you and your skill lvl tbh
yea I'm starting over
the forehead and the hair also don't feel like they are connected
i'm starting from skratych so id doesn't matter shik
still worth mention so you don't do the same thing again
i tought i was decent now and that's why i spent so little time in sketching process, and this is what happend
it takes a long time to build up your visual library. And while you
're new to art or don't do studies you end up thinking you're better than you actually are
if only you fixed that weird habit of put the ear so far back then it would be even more perfect
yeah, its pretty well done. You're definitely improving just don't hold yourself too highly. I've been doing art for almost 4 years and i'm still garbage
even before i asked saiph i saw that ear was so too far away so that's something
then Sai, give him some tip on ear position
its something you'll get better at with practice and studies
Idk how to do semi realistic eyes
They are supposeted to just be bigger
But idk where to place em or how big to make em
go look up artist with that style you looking for and use them as reference?
ah that's boring
it always good to have 1 or 2 artists with the style you like so you can steal all they technique
where do i find them tho
i don't know
there probably a harshtag on twitter or DA to help you find them
Before you can properly venture into semi realism you need to know realism
I know but you won’t understand how to fit things together until you know the fundamentals of anatomy. Looking at different artist won’t help much in that regard besides just stealing their style or coping their painting
or i stal where they placed the eye :)
Where they place the eyes is all anatomy. Its not random just stylized
Hairline
The hairline should reach downwards before the ear
also the hair on top of the head is cutting into the head
part where the neck connects to the head is wider than where it connects to the torso
:)
ty tho
i apprichiate it or however you spell that
some grammar to keep me save as well i see
Does anyone have a tutorial on how to use alcohol markers?
a lot of us here do digital
Ah ok
rarely seen someone send tradicional stuff
i dont plan on finishing it but is there anything that i can change?? really lazy to draw the background
that part is blocked by the text so it is not that important but
she either has a small pinky or only have 3 fingers
well 4 if you count the thumb
she has a really tiny pinky
and while you may too lazy to finish it, you could also try to only colored the eyes
that way, it will fit the eye glowing thing and you can be lazy with the rest
i kinda hid the pinky so it's small
but thanks, i'll adjust it tomorrow 
i got my first drawing tablet with a screen!
its a gaomon :3
i gotta dig in the christmas bag lmao
take your time lol
im thinking of buying this digi pen as replacement for my s-pen, the pen is just too thin for my liking 
sometime you just have to accept your small size




hahahah
Put some rubber on it
Around it*

what can i do to know how to draw anatomy and poses correctly without a reference
first step is to use refs and grasp basic structure
Or try reference bashing and take different parts from different refs and put them together
drew this for an AU while also trying out my new tablet (cintiq 16)
it felt so good to use a pen after using a mouse for so long
@onyx breach did that tornadoo that hit your country fucked something bad up?
tornado?
ouch
does anyone have a reference for a fun character to draw
only thing ive been drawing is genshin, which is getting immensely boring
doodles from the plane 
male or female characters? or no preference
i know a few maybe
male
i rarely get to draw males bc the majority of genshin chars are females
especially the ones i have
ensemble stars could be fun 
i’m think if there’s any others i know
i enjoyed drawing marvel characters for a while too

are there any detailed charaters?
not sure what you mean by detailed 🤔
like, lotsof clothes details
uhh
??
i mainly have wataru refs cuz he was my fave one to draw..
ohh wait hold on
i remember this card with cool clothes
lemme look for it
??
idk if this is detailed enough
hmm
Yup, it messed our place very bad
My friend from Philippines hasn't answerd me for few days now :(
thanks
It's more like a typhoon but yea, yknow those cartoon movements where they hold their ground just so they won't be blown by a strong wind? That's the feeling except it's irl
but what do tornadoes really taste like
Dirty wind?!?×(×€#
Tastes like the cow floating in the centre of it
its unfortunate but there are casualties here, latest report was almost a hundred, bless their souls
i’ll change the colour later
for now it’s gonna be grey
figured i’d work on the clothes to stop looking at faces.. where to even start 
drawing hair while the character's falling is hard
Get a wig
And throw it over and over again
It'll stick eventually 💪
don't have money 
Make a wig out of your hair, improvise. Adopt. Overcome.
Cheap wig works 
This also!!
🤣
So pro..
naruhodo
too flat for Shii's taste
Haha
that muscle in the armpit doesn't exit so you'll need to remove that shizue
??
Do you post those short anis on yt?
the one delay drew near the characters back doesn't exist so don't draw that
o
Yup
Ah wait, no it's actually a part of an larger animation atm
Just get silver to draw it for you he he
da hell
hmmm
that’s wlop the art god
At least i now know that it's achievable to be that good
Rate please 
Greyscale is fun 
Fu Hua Wip
when you have fur over fur just to covered her chest then that would already 12
dayum
I'm like not gay but he's hot

i am a straight female and i would let him step on me
i am a straight female but i would not let him step on me but he is very good looking, i'd say

teri teri
This is completely furry but ??
Strange choice to leave out the head and neck 
You got something you wanna tell us
lmao

its like the show Cats where theyre covered with fur with only face as human-ish 😲
i think their face has also fur
Furry
Basically
Just waiting until drawing tablet comes
I need something fun to draw for a test
What did you buy?
Cintiq 16, mainly cause I dont think shortcut keys are very necessary for me
Plus there was 6 month free clip studio
And my mom refused to buy anything else but from amazon or wacom
That'd good
Qas setting ip my new chair that I got for Christmas yesterday. Needed a new one since my other one was a kitchen chair and it hurt like hell after getting up from drawing for hours.
I think its no longer my chair
My cat is obsessed with it
senti
Soooooo fluffyyyyy
Hes cuddly too
people are so good at drawing here 
When you say that it's kind of funny some of us started a few months ago, yet it feels like a long time ago........ 
Hey people can get really good at drawing with just a few months so it's great and if it feels long it feels like gaining lots of experience
Scrolling through here maybe it will motivate me
I'd really like to thank the people in this lobby I learnt a lot
Yeah it can. I've also been through the kitchen chair experience, my back hurts like hell now. If you ever bùmp into a problem feel free to ask
Anyone but me lol
Oh on procreate I used the chromatic displacement thingy
It’s cool lots of tools on procreate
Will try it, hope I'll make a breakthrough coloring is difficult
if only there was a for serious dummies testbook or tutorial 
Ikr I rlly struggle with coloring it’s super time consuming but I hope you do well practice makes perfect 👍
I mean ik many people say this but like the way to really get use to knowing colors and using them is to actually draw a lot
with colors and experiment with different colors and shades
Cat

How’s the shading? Looking for critique or ways to improve it
Redraw of some wlop thing to kill time at School
looks much better irl and i hate that
Despite digital it looks like shsddd wigh pencil 
I'm bad at shading traditionally,my teacher has yet to show me the the technique
check the neck structure
