suck it past aki!
or you use your none dominate hand
well the girl looks more "alive" now than before at least
my small criticism of your painting would be that it does look a bit stiff and forced to me ' o'
compare to your pfp that you have done
need to be more relaaaxed ; )
let the natural brush tip flow like water or so
idk how to put it in words ^^'
I was doing and expression for the 1st time and i too noticed that it was a lil stiff
expressions are hard to understand for now
maybe do more line art at the start
try to capture the vibe with only lines
when you can do this then painting is gonna be much more easier for you
I'll try to experience a lot of different stuff for sure

yuh
oh
well if you're asking for brushes here this is the one i'm using
for lineart
i used to draw with feather traditionally so it took me a while to find the perfect fit. now im pretty comfy with this one
this one i use for painting either just gray scaling or coloring roughly in general
this is for sketching stuff before i do anything else
and these two are for more fine stuff like rendering. which i actually rarely use.
that's all the brushes i use. not a lot to be fair
i do think about using knife in the future tho. looks really fun and want to see how it goes
ooo
poggers

ayoo this is skadi from arknights right???
soo cool i love her
im pretty sure its skalter 
Is that Skadi the corrupting heart-
da armor is fun
Ah yes, had time to make this one, don't worry, BD ep 3 is already in the making, it's five minutes long as of now, and yes, there's a secret spoiler in this video.
Thumbnail by: Shark#5626
No, the thumbnail doesn't correlate with what the video has to offer, but I liked it anyway, so I used it, thanks Shark.
k im waiting.
so guys i just downloaded krita, any tips regarding brushes?
pink birb
birb
is it weird if the wind in that pic just make me thing Aki just tied up a bird and leave it on top of a stick somewhere?
holy shit i gotta draw these 
at least it is just alt outfit for global, otherwise, lost fishnet and pantyhose is a sin
I'm enjoying the updated clip studio very much, it is fabulous
Okay that's my weekly message, see u guys next week
made a quick avatar ' -'
🐰
For the hololive audition
You are 13, just use your imagination..
Well it's not highly rendered etc. Since it's more about the role playing of the fitting personality : |
I like this one
i would use that tablet of his and show the name there
instead of a lot of wasted space
are you talking to yourself
Shik knows who am i talking to
silly ayin, you can't expect Aki to have imagination in the first place
aki is the average artist that draws whatever they think looks cool and moves on confused about it
Thanks 
Not rly
he is too bound to reality
first stage of grief: denial
Only thing I ever drew that i thought was cool is that bird
I was always trying to give it my all when arting, now i realized that I don't need to create masterpiece ever day
meanwhile old Aki took month to do anything
we also have other artist that dont bother to finish their work 
Ppl change.. 
im looking at you shii
Saiphh
I hate her for it
Shii is too busy hanging out with the cool CC kids to spend time here
What's cc
content creator
i like sai's quick studies theyre nice to look at regardless finished or not
Aren't you that kid
i have the title but i rarely do anything with it
But imagine her finishing a piece, ot would look soooooo good
yeah i sometimes question myself if sai has other social media so i can stalk her
ok ai chan
Get fuckeddds shikkkkkk
She said she never finished a piece
Then she showed us her most finished piece and said even that needs a lot more work
But ayin, the thing she showed us...
It looked bloody amazing
standards so high you cant see the fkn top of it
thing can look good in quick sketch but draw the whole thing is different story
How was it in ai chans basement?
@lament stump just do it for fun and don't stress too much haha
having fun in the process is what counts
can't even tell which word is bad though
Having fun is super important to keep you going
so when you look back at your old stuff you'll be filled with good and happy memories instead of the painful stuff you have to go through to make it
when i look at my old stuff i go "bruh, i was proud of this shit?"
nah, it will be 80% painful because now that you are better you just look back and think "what did i even thinking when i make that draw"
I'm always gonna be happy when i look back at my shity bird
It maybe sucks but it was fun
happens... that's because you're better now xdd
it's a good sign
that happens to me every week when i look at my old stuff from last week

i guess
it is like looking back at your old OC you made and re-read all the weird backstory you gave it
but well, it also give you something to use for "redraw my old content" idea
Send us some of your storys
make uses of your bad draw to show people how much you have improved now
nah, sadly i'm not one to make my own OC
Smoge
i have always been the type like to draw fanart than make my own thing after all
even the OC i made, i just use her for avatar
no complex background nor hobby needed
🙄
||You're never obligated to, also at your lvl we can hardly call it good yet let alone a masterpiece so chill down||
When I said trying to create masterpiece I meant like giving it a lot of though and shit to make it best possible for my level
Not like masterpiece accepted by the world
well you almost gave up plenty of time, if not because we keep talking you into finish it
you would drop a lot of thing
ig thats one good thing about having a nice art community
i always find braids beautiful whenever I see one but they're a pain to shade
sketch part done
maybe I’ll line and color idk
my last 2 portraits didn't go that way
anime girls were like that
not just talking about the portraits, i talking about those before that too
Are your hillicurls beside her?
https://twitter.com/rain_marginals/status/1478822252590374914 like/rt to help a girl out, tips welcome
KAWAII
what brush u use
I’m in pain
LKR PEN @edgy cairn
its a downloaded pen from csp search it up
dies from cuteness

really didnt care if i wanna finish it, im not confident enough to color as its wack af
does this look ok for a sketch? 
Just stock em 1 day you’ll just wake up with motivation to Finnish them up
Great anatomical balance 👍👍 it’s ok but not sure 🤔 abt the left arm elbow join it feels weird
the floor seems uneven
proportions well balanced tho
ok, so, this is a bit more about character design than art exactly, but idk who else to ask
basically, i got this little guy
now, idk what color to use for a mouth, using normal black lines makes the mouth invisible on half his face, using white has the same problem
using them together just looks kinda weird when drawing more than just a simple closed mouth
i thought of probably using a single color but not sure which to pick
Its just i havent practice basic coloring
not that i havent had any single speck of motivation
yesterday i tried it but it was bad i have to remove the color
for now, i would try to do that while doing the sketches
If you do art for fun and not to improve then keep sketching what you want. You don’t have to colour. Don’t let others make you feel bad about it
well, yeah i have to remove my negativity and pursue it carefully
If colouring is something you really want to learn then doing studies will help a lot
hm yep would try to study
i would go with 4, the last one for open mouth, while 2 for the closed mouth
doesn't it look weird though?
i was thinking maybe a single color would be better but idk what color would work well
its perfectly normal to be bad at it first, you dont just slap a color first try and create a masterpiece all of a sudden, it takes several months or even a year to get better at it so dont be afraid to create bad -looking art, its just part of growing up and getting better.
so, i decided to try using a single grey color
not sure which looks best though
(it's just 20%, 30%, 40%, 50% on the greyscale)
is there really a different there
Reminds me of black zetsu in naruto
Maybe he might be a good reference
Or Dangropa monokuma
i would help if i knew which one is different
#1 - 20% grey
#2 - 30%
#3 - 40%
#4 - 50%
was it the mouth that changed or am i blind
it's the mouth
between 2 and 3
right now my issue is how to make his mouth
he has 3 forms, neutral (this), all black and all white
i want a way to show he's smiling in his all black form
Then for pure black use white ink as smile
that could work but then my brain screams at me because it doesn't like inconsistencies
i could just keep it that his mouth is essentially invisible in his black form to add to his already unnaturality 🤔
Whats consistent about it? Its a very common way to still depict lines in mangas, mangakas do this all the time when they work on black haired chars
i meant like "a mouth appears when all black, but not when neutral"
Then just don't draw the mouth
draw like that is completely normal in manga but if you feel odd with it then well, it just your choice now
either keep draw with white line until you are used to that look or just skip it
i think i'll just go with no mouth
thanks for the feedback/help
saber
he happy :D
I think the head is a bit big
head is too big, arm on the right side is too small, legs are off, and neck is also a little big
Ty
ur mom
you probably trying to avoid drawing breast but the back is the part with a lot of detail you need to get right so have fun with that
putting a big hoodie on
solves that
and I'm not trying to avoid boobs, i just want the girl in this pose
sure
i gave up
on that one
realised my fundementals aren't even at 1% out of a 100%, so I'll start being more serious now
use references when you draw. Ez way to improve while doing what you want
ofc i did but i just couldn't get it to work, it's a lot harder to use multiple refs to make your own piece then copying one, but you learn a lot form just 1 so I'll start doing more of that
duranduck
that glass gonna be easy knock off by accident if she keep looking that sassy
saaaaaaaber 
alt Saber is where it at
Nah i prefer normal saber, I feel like alt will sodomize you the moment you're alone with her
ooh fainted saber
ive grown to like dpoing backlights coz it vuts off 50% of shading work and makes the job just faster
alt Saber and alt Jeanne are all i need
Are all of your commissions dead ppl now?
3 of them aren't, a shrine maiden celebrating new year and an sfw dakimakura with 2 sides
Sounds like speed paint video time to me
Yup
Pog
lining this will be my end 
Beautifull

Bebe
Thank youu
Thx 
done 
yea that's his thing

She fainted, jesus
You've gotten better lately
Looks super cool
i thought delay’s thing was booba 
i even put it there :v
Almost
What's mp
values practice
How you guys think of my drawing?
mitsuri
I'm doing a lot of colouring practises rn but its all trying to mimick other people's art as accurate to it as possible so I've not been showing it out of guilt.

Trying to get used to the brushes
And the tools
Experimenting and figuring out how they're doing it
Do you think it's a good way to practise or am I just wasting my time?
It's good, you might find some new techniques that you like using yourself and it helps learning how to adjust to different styles
it’s a good way to practice imo
Learning different styles is useful since you can incorporate stuff you’ve learned into your own style
That's what i think too but the guilt is stoll lingering
it’s like photo studies but focusing on style instead
But that's with everything lol
this is one
woops wait PDF
This is one i've finished
The original
It is hard to make it 100%
Really close already though, it's good! If anything the original uses less hard edges
I used a hard edge brush and I didnt use much blending I noticed that too so I downloaded more options for blending
doing this one rn
Im trying out colour after sketch
Before I spent a long time doing lineart
This also not my own art original art but another im copying as best as I can
Just started though so when I've worked on it more I'll show the original too
Oooh they look really nice
Beautifull

yo my new manga projects 1st chapter is out
it's actually an oct (OC tournament). feel free to take a look at my audition
Finish with this drawing tell me how you guys think of it?
GORGEOUS
Sketch to get myself back into drawing again after not touching my ipad for a month or 2 😩
noice
Poggies
poggers teach me sensei
at least the legs of this one look more normal
some of your draw use rather large feet that it messed with perspective of that draw
yeah i kinda messed up the proportions on the last ones
kinda wanted to make the thighs thiccer
too background heroine
Does anyone have ||PE durandal|| references?
probably everywhere on youtube by now
soo adorable
Its a good
it may just me but the right front leg probably would be a bit further a head
nearly done might try coloring
made this today
the “thumb” part of their left front leg should be on the inside, not the outside
the rest of the paws look good to me 
Woahh your style is so pretty

Agree

Thanks 
Keep up the good work

Hmm are you using mouse to draw? I can't see any pressure lines 
Kinda reminds me of back when I used mouse to draw as well 
How do ppl even draw with mouse
the skill for that
Dunno, it just happens 
It is finally finished
Thank youu
then time to throw it in Honkai-fan-art, Hoyolab and everything in between
followed you on insta 
I like the way the hair shading is done
Tysmm <33 i'm glad u like it 
Maybe gonna post it on hoyolab later xD
I draw on phone my stylus doesn't have pressure so ...
haha
The original is so detailed I am overworking my brain.
Go for it say whatever
the blur on this shadow of the hair is too dark
did you try to use overlay?
it might give you the same style as the original
I used entirely just different brushes to challenge myself
well
dont take this offensively but there's a difference between doing something challenging and something that only creates more work for yourself
The only blending I used is add glow I think for the eyes xD
haha
yeah you should really use blending modes more, they give a much better effect and take a lot less work
especially with the style of coloring that you're going for
I have a habit of using tone curve
And the other tonal corrections
Instead of blending modes
im personally not very well versed in tone curving but blending modes and tone curving should be used as somewhat complementary
one without the other is just a little lackluster
Maybe that's why my colouring is so dull xD
But rn I'm going crazy downloading brushes and trying the out, it has become an addiction
I'm gonna attempt doing this one next after the current one. I think i definitely blending modes for this.
I also wanna try using gradient map
i can only say, good luck to you
I should be fine... Hopefully
That looks insane tbh 
My first time using overly in action. So magical.
Thanks for the advice I kinda forget about them and idk what they do tbh xD
haha np 👍
I updated my clipstudio recently for the liquify tool but my old clip studio was like 1 year not updated and the entire layout changed, not used to it
Wow art channel 😳 well hope you like this
How would I draw the muscles here?
dang, i wish i could learn advanced coloring
I haven't learnt it I just paint what I see. Im trying to learn it slowly too.
decided to take a break and just draw some poses.
Yeah hope i can have a good coloring skills
@lone wagon if i can ask, where do you find the brushes for the painting used? or which are used
I got to see the thumb reveal
Welcome to art I'm guessing you're new, everyone says use reference and i do say that too cuz that's what everyone should do
"copying" a reference is in no way a bad thing let alone cheating
Drawing from imagination is extremely hard so just look up a person stranding in that pose and use their arms to draw yours 😄
NO THAT'S NOT MY CASE, i don't like man
Lmfao yeah !
i mean ive barely drawn anything these days either because exams soon
Also i kept trying to see what i like for the eye and i found what i like
Just get an all nighter and finish it!!

I'm starting to take art more seriously so i draw every day
Not a lot, I'm working on that lol
american gang fr
Still a kid who can't make such a big commitment

What does America gotta do with no time
well for me
i spend 3-5 hours a day studying
also colleges are super competitive here
and id rather have a guarantee for my career over hobbies
What's your Major thing
undecided, still in high school
But that's like saying,art is limited to a hobby
also my family is super low income so i either grind or get screwed
in america, id say yes, because it’s nearly impossible to make enough salary to sustain depending on where you live
...
I'm sorry that you think that way
I'm not gonna try and convince you in anything tho
Many popular full time artist are from america
as i said before, it depends on where you live
Artist go to america for jobs cuz the industry is evolved there and is evolving still
birth rng decided id be born into a extremely low income family in one of the most expensive places to live in america

Btw the eye should be tilted a little to the left
So it's parallel with mouth
i gotchuu
but VERY slightly
it might just be me but i think that the eye isn't correct with the angle you're using right now
it should be more cut off (if that makes more sense)
like on this
I'll fix it up
Nc
I'm using clipstudio. Clipstudio have their own store. I'll show u after I come back from work
Bruh
I didnt see it
Sorry

Give me 1 more chance
Keep up the good work

Whoa i see you seem like to draw some detail like that

I love it
She do be playing video games tho
Yunjin 💕

@hardy yew to where I get my brushes as promised.
I have more than 1 downloaded so csnt go through them all. Just download and find the ones you like.
This was a request for someone
I feel bad cuz they wanted some cute anime cat girl
And i did that
cool lighting 
i think in the future my style will be in that kind of dark theme
i like dark themes a lot
i belive the eye should be like this
at least that's what real head anatomy says, in anime you can go with what you like more
tuna sketch
maybe I’ll paint in b&w
also I agree w aki ^
If you do plan to move it like this don't forget the eyebrow and stuff
Yeah imma leave it as is i’ll improve on it in the future
it is so bright that i can't even see anything in preview mode
line work could use some work
@lament stump have you checked out guweiz art?
His paintings might be pretty inspirational for your directions
The lights on her face can be a bit stronger to show the viewer a bigger contrast and the overall silhouette
If you look at guweiz's art you can see what I'm talking about
So good..
Yes the color is quite dark most of the time but there are a few very bright spots
So cool 
wlop?
Wlop has here a similar one
Very dark color but a few important places brighther than anything
@lusty hazel same
Art God xd
those are some thicc legs
Nice detail you got there
yae miko doodle

Critique? This is for my college brief (Arctic alien)
What should I scrap/change
Also how do I make the translucent underbelly work 
i would say those weird fin on the side
being snake like, the fin would just be more thin but and slightly translucent
but if you want to keep those fins anyway, maybe give it a slightly off color on the bottom or the side so it actually visible
it kinda blend in the body sometime
you can see in those reference of you, the fin often have white out on the tip
the glow is very bright, it reaches almost pure white so maybe tone it down a bit to give attention to the other parts of the design? I’m not sure if you’re going for realistic skull/skeletal structure but the mouth opening thing on the side is stretched far and the fins are quite sharp
Yeah, it's all rough rn I haven't toned anything at all
Why i feel like this is a bit weird (?) 
the head is too far away from the neck in that kind of angle
foot too big in comparison
the thigh and calf also rather small and short compare to the body
and all 4 fingers are the same length
Thx y'all i need this

if the arm about as long as the leg then that pretty much a problem
The anatomy is to hard for me but imma try my best to fix it

I've never been more lost on finding a pose for a character
I messed up the makeup too ahh 
Blurry 
I don't have the shoes..
I usually just post a row of 3 selfie style stuff </3
And I need someone's help for those kind of pictures 😭😭
Yup you really need someone to take the photos
chain is pretty much this version's theme anyway
I can edit those on 🤔 (I'm a guy)
Worth a try 👍
Well you ain't wrong
Hold up looks like im always get fooled by a trap

now if you just made Veliona's version and photoshop yourself in
Kekeke
At least you know now 
I was planning on it.. but so expensive 
Why you cosplaying seele anyway ?
Wdym why 🗿
Fuck
No wonder smth looked wrong
I forgot the flower in her hair 
Just imagine it as kallen and fu hua hair
Lmaoo i just realise
Shenhe's hair is normal enough
it is those with short and spiky hair like Sucrose usually the problem one
I got the opposite one lol
Im making it a bit wavy yet it fails to impress myself that it was shenhe
gosh i am having a bad time at this
they didnt come in w the dress or
😨
just rip one of the skirt and put on your head
Cleaning this at this moment
I think they didn't but the seller just gave an extra one 🗿 it has the same uhh
Safety pin (??) As the one that go on the dress but it's extra 🤷♂️
3/10 Not too bad
Sometimes stuff gets lost among the others.. or destroyed by my cats 
They're too cute.. I can't 
shaved the tail and used it as material
I will not shave my cats!! Let me shave your head instead tsk tsk
mine is too fabulous
My cats are cuter than your hair is fabulous
just get some from Aki, he probably gone bald soon
Look at her dumb face 
Good idea kekeke
Not done with this art yet but tell me how you guys think of it
good but probably could use something for her to sit on
imagine all the human looking up to the sky
Planning to add a cloud underneath her
nice clean lines 
Eye candy for those with giant heroine fetish, I'm just imagining looking at her from below..... Lol
Ayo
😐
https://twitter.com/rain_marginals/status/1480958423067992069 uwu :0 does it look okay
it's my first time drawing something like this 😔
it does look okay
Ye its fine
A default or did u download or make it?
hanami, you use csp right? How do you usually open psd files? I get a file not supported error when I open a psd that came from my pc (and open it using tablet ver of csp)
right now it just look like someone try to take a picture of a fox but it too fast
you have to convert it to a csp file
think theres a tutorial on how to do it on youtube
The only one I found is a vid uploading the psd to Google drive then opening it in csp but even that didn't work
@Delay
I've always just used CSP so I'm nto expert in converting files from PSD but it seems a lot of people have similar problems
Finally made it work somehow on my tablet
U trying out csp?
yup
It gained a lot of hype with its newest update
i'm trying to learn it so that when im outdoors and want to draw i can just use my tablet
Sounds good, heard its the best program for ipads and also for android tablets
Its practically an exact copy of the desktop version
it truly is
But I've always been bias towards CSP since I just love how it feels when drawing. It feels so much smoother I feel more confident using it than photoshop where the brushes feels more stiff
U should check out the CSP store, it makes downloading customizable brushes so much easier and u get a load of great things from there.
I'm using a Samsung galaxy tab s7 and since I'm used to big screens drawing on it feels so cramped
ok
The shortcut to the store is that button
U should check the store often because prstucslly 90% of the paid stuff it first becomes free for a certain amount of time before they make it paid
Nc
Have u customised your own brushes before? I'm too lazy to do it so I rely heavy on doenlaod Ed one s
Not yet, I just use gpen, im not rly one to be fixated on fancy brushes.
They're not rely fancy, they're just the default brushes that has been adjusted to make it easier to do individual things.
'-')b
Not that the default brushes can't do those things they're just been made easier to use to do specific things
hanami is simping so hard for them brushes
you sent a poo? 😱
Its only since last week where I started using customized brushes. I thought i didnt need customized ones since too lazy and i thought it wouldn't make much difference anyways but I was sooooo wrong, I regret not using customized brushes sooner.
must have been overloaded
i have tons to fix tommorow
I've been using custom ones since day one cuz I'm cool
Legs are way to big
nope, i like it that way
more normal than usual at least
wide hips= plump
but it is actually not the legs big, it is the head too small that cause other part look big
Well idk if foot counts as legs but if it does then idk how can someone like that
otherwise, the legs and body fit enough
the only thing bother me is her ankle is a bit twisted
actually, i prefer this if i make my head bigger, it would be disproportionate
It wouldn't
i might go mald at that point
Nah, i dont care about that
Aki just jelly because you pump out new pic faster than he can sketch
seeing shenhe arts= more motivated
well commission is a good way to practice too
depends on how you approach your art pieces
the kind of idea they want you to do~ ufufu
although the skin is a decent one, its not yet enough
I think the body is 11-12 heads long
maybe try 9-10 heads if you prefer stretched proportions?
ya, you can always limit the type of commission you want to do then expand it further
too many demanding peeps at this point
no one would ever appreciate how hard you do
do you mean mine?
Actually mine dud
I meant ataegina whoops
oh ok
shoulda been but its way too late
until you have enough enough follows and they fight over those slightly complain about your draw in the comment section
i was like uh... ok lol xdd
am at the coloring section now
yep
"perfectionist" types
that one kind of a people they criticize you for something that is bad in your perspectives
I'm the perfectionist type but I prefer more traditional style colouring where its messier
Idk what to do xD
i could feel you
well that is the usual thing until you have enough draw for it to became "your style"
from traditional to digi real way too quicl
No i meant I liek the traditional digital type styles
yeah, but the only prob for me was, i was having a different art styles
so sometimes my lineart do not match the previous ones
Like these
well, beside the head, your is not really odd
Which is a blessing in disguisd
same
I don’t do lineart frequently though 
might add the hair volume later on
In trying to get into the habit of not doing a perfect lineart
the head is really painful to fux
And spending too long on it like i used to
I have yet to find a lining style and I find painting more fun so I’ve been doing a bunch of photo studies with painting style
the time you spend on lineart though~
I'm not even doing liensrt anymore shik xD
like-
holy mily i am malding at linearts
After the neater sketch I strsight gor for thr colours
lineart takes so long 
With the practises I'm doing
i am dying to make it not look like a turd
I don’t even sketch most times I go straight to color blocking which is probably not the greatest idea
unless it’s an anatomy focused study
I have always been good with neat lines
Im having jt for the longest time
meanwhile, i do colored lineart so i have to separated them out and make sure they didn't mixed together
how do you do your color lineart
alpha locking?
Practise and studying
overlay layer magic
yah
am too dumb to even watch the tutorials lol
Rn I'm just mimicking others art to try to figure out how they do it
or yeah studying
but for stuff that’s not realistic overlay is amazing
can't really use the color itself to draw the lineart since some of them too light
I'm not good at studying since information goes in one ear and out the other so I'm trying to self study
And lesrn it by myself to engrave it into my mind from fail and error
I do my best to copy photo refs but I time myself to make sure I don’t take too long and I visualize big planes
Its only just tons of trial and errors
hard to even imagine yourself and not to take references
God am shaking my head rn
but~ colored lineart can make thing stand out so i just love doing it
neat
this is the closest thing I’ve done to lineart in months
the details doe...
so dope
tyy
fat brush allows me to ignore some details and make it look more detailed than it is
I'm still happy with my oc, when I get better at colouring I'm gonna do an illustration for her
havent even seen your oc's @lone wagon
hep, speechless
hanami is rly good at designing
dang man, teach me how to do that
for some reason, the dress make me think of a duck's face
Ducks are cute so I'm still happy about that
Might do an concept oc arts soon hmm
I've always been good at designing. The competition I've ever entered was a designing based competition when I was like 7 years old
Wearing qipaos, ayy
It was for a big chocolate company and it was a competition for the entire of the UK
I won 1st prize
It was only designing though, nothing of what I reslly wanted to do
woah
I got free tickets to visit the whole chocolate facility with my family
the only thing i could even be proud of is just winning the sci arts when i was in 4th grade in a district level
and the only thing that made me win was by copying others work
it was embarrasing and made me think that was the moment i hated copying other's art
There was a fireworks design competition in primary school too idk how well I did in that though but my teacher said I did well
Painful as it sounds but i learned a lot from peeps that you never deveolp your own skills by just copying alone
And in high school I won a sweets competition too it was for designing sweets for a big company and they've made it into a sweet now
totally relatable
we could feel dumbfounded of some things accidentally goes in our favor
In thr UK its called squashes the sweet I remember designing, but I didn't want to be involve in it so i didnt claim the prize since in high school I hated standing out
But i was a favourite student of the graphic design teacher xD
yep me might attract unnecessary attention
no, I've been drawing a lot these past few weeks
*we
like i said I'm getting serious shik o.O
yea, rn I'm about to go to my art class, being with ppl who share same interest as you in a same room rly gets you going
I hated high school art classes.
same but i only had that class in 1st grade of hs
I've never been good at studying, but somehow I ended up in set 1 art class. How it works is that if you're in the higher sets for other classes you get out in the same sets, but i was in set 5 for everything except art and people in set 1 qas salty
so you're saying you were a bad artist
Didn't blend in very well, the teachers favoured me and I hated it. Even when I think my art is shit she never shouted.
Or complained
She always gave it a good grade and others didn't like that
does someone know where i start learning art history?
khan academy has videos on it
I heard skillshshare is starting to become good
i need to find art parents that are not wlop and gueiz
Its an education platform
skillshare needs to be paid for
I think you can get like 2 months free of skill share
that's ew
If you watch a content creator who's be sponsored
just go on twitter then look for new artist
no
I've watch so many of them and they're always advertising skills hare and is like
i need masters to be my parents
If u put this code u get 2 months free of skill share
go on pixiv or insta or Twitter and look for artists
not some twitter anime drawing ppl
khan academy
A lot of artists ik are starting to go to patron though
For content like teaching
like this interesting monster girl's artist i randomly found other day
I've been waiting 1 whole hour for a bus now this is painful
If i dont rely within 2 weeks I've pribably froze to death
then at least give us a picture of you licking frozen pole for reference
Okay
list of inspos for me

was asked by a friend to color his drawing's eyes
Your style really reminds me of the olden days anime art
and you said you are not that old
I mean like 10 years ago
🏃♂️
meanwhile just when i got in the mood to get on my own project, a client want to do a $80 commission
but he did give me $20 tip at least
just to make it $100...
How?
Ai-chan is weird
All I tried to do wa imitating the sound of money
but well, most of my clients seem to don't care about the background so i always get rather easy job
it just to redesign the char they created from some game
those character generator doesn't have much interesting looking outfit after all
She gives me ninja vibe
did the client say you could switch up the outfit if you wanted to or no?
yes
I have no idea who I'm drawing here, but I am actually relatively happy with the drawing so far.
Does anyone have any suggestion for improvement so far?
or more like, that is the point of that commission
Have u asked what kind of outfit? Or what kind of personality is their character?
"i just leave it to you to decide" they say
I'd ask further questions about what type of anime they like or what genre they like
If they prefer isekai probably a fantasy themed clothes would be better for them
adam duff is pretty good
he's a professional
you could try add some ornament on and maybe some accessory
proko is also a pretty good one @lament stump
Maybe some clothes too unless u want her to be naked
Or unless she's wearing this types of dresses without sleeves
U csnt see her not having anything on
the bandaid type
That's a good idea. I will think about what else I can add. ^^
just set a personality type you want to use then use that to pick accessory for the char
then maybe change the facial expression to match
Don't worry, she'll definitely get clothes. ^^ '
Will do. Thanks for the advice. ^^
She gives me a gothic princess vibe like this too
frill, frill everywhere
I love frills
Then what abour a casual beauty
Simple modern clothing
I'd personally stick with the dark black theme
But they're paying $100 so probably more effort needs to be put in xD
i probably go for the "tight clothe on the torso while loose on the limb"
well, i just gonna test out various type and let the client pick the final anyway
too serious look for Nobu, give me back the goofy one
If its a game I bet its an MMORPG
And they usually have classes
That's why I said she reminds me of a ninjs/assassin type
But could be wrong maybe thry picked mage
Proko has podcast called draftsman with Marshall vandruf
There i learned that i need masters for art parents
Proko*
Oh
Yea, he's insanely good at teaching
But Marshal is on another level, i recommend to everyone to watch thoes podcasts
marc brunet is another very great artist
he even posts his lessons on yt
he was former blizzard and riot artist
which already says a LOT
Ik, marc has been my main learning source
poggers
Proko definitely really enjoy art history and art theory, most people even professional artists don't go as far as him in learning the extreme details that he does
XD
Oh, I just assumed gues si assumed wrong since only watched 5 videos from him
It's okay
It felt more like watxhing a biology lesson than an art lesson so I didn't watch more
XD
have you checked out adam?
That's what anatomy is
he's one of the most unique mentor out there
I didn't I'll tho
also worked for blizzard back in his old days
Anatomy is insanely hard and technical
well anatomy is indeed one of the hardest thing
Anyway I'm going back to drawing
and there's like infinite things to learn about it. you'll never go dry on content to learn tbh
which is why it's so fun to always try new stuff out and explore
Ywah but you don't need to know the names of all the joints and how they look, you just need to know the basics
The thing I remembered the most from watching proko is how he named all the joints and drew them all out explaining every little detail on how the joints work
Ik u need to know which way an arm rostates and how the body rotates
But not to that extreme detail
There are 6 types of synovial joints. They have varying shapes, but the important thing about them is the movement they allow. Let's go through each joint.

This video has bene engraved into my mind
And itll be the first thing that pops up when someone mentions proko
Well, saying you just need to know the basic is like saying, I'll learn what i have to and I'll stick to that for the rest of my career
Almost every professional and every master who drew or draws humans knew anatomy to extremes
Artists don't just limit themselves to humans obviously, but you don't need to study the whole biology of the human body to be able to be a professional artist
You see artists draw animals but did they actually went out of their way to learn the anatomy in detail of those animals too?
What about plants, tress and the environment in general? Did they went out of their way to become a Geologist just to paint some rocks?
Ans what about those who are good at drawing buildings? Did they have to take a degree in architecture to be that good at drawing buildings?
lineart done
I’m taking a college level intro architecture course rn
ppl frequently double major architecture + eng or architecture + fine arts bc fine arts is a big part of the curriculum anyways
So by that logic, ppl who specializes in drawing mechas also took some mecha-piloting voodo course huh
whoops I meant professional architects
Ok so I was just messing around and ended up drawing ganyu but it kind of scares me 😭
I think it may be the smile
The Grinch vibe
LMAO
Is a man XD
yes
and i said masters who drew and draws humans
not meany do both human anatomy and like concept art, mabye they do but if you're know for something almost never is the case for that popular guy to do humans and something tottaly different
I actually did put in effort to memorize canine and feline musculature and I know quite a few who know the skeletons of many animals
Imo it’s not biology artists study, it’s anatomy, not physiology
