past aki is never gonna be better than present aki

#

unless something failed miserably xdd

lament stump
#

suck it past aki!

lost wagon
#

or you use your none dominate hand

dusky trail
#

well the girl looks more "alive" now than before at least

lost wagon
#

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 ^^'

lament stump
#

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

lost wagon
#

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

lament stump
#

I'll try to experience a lot of different stuff for sure

lost wagon
#

👍

#

have fun then ; )

#

yuh

lost wagon
#

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

#

Well it's not highly rendered etc. Since it's more about the role playing of the fitting personality : |

lament stump
dusky trail
#

i would use that tablet of his and show the name there

#

instead of a lot of wasted space

lusty hazel
lament stump
#

Shik knows who am i talking to

dusky trail
#

silly ayin, you can't expect Aki to have imagination in the first place

lusty hazel
#

aki is the average artist that draws whatever they think looks cool and moves on confused about it

lost wagon
dusky trail
#

he is too bound to reality

lusty hazel
#

first stage of grief: denial

lament stump
#

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

dusky trail
#

meanwhile old Aki took month to do anything

lusty hazel
#

we also have other artist that dont bother to finish their work Teriehe

lament stump
#

Ppl change.. SirinPat

#

im looking at you shii

#

Shii is too busy hanging out with the cool CC kids to spend time here

lament stump
#

What's cc

#

i like sai's quick studies theyre nice to look at regardless finished or not

i have the title but i rarely do anything with it

#

yeah i sometimes question myself if sai has other social media so i can stalk her

#

ok ai chan

lament stump
#

Get fuckeddds shikkkkkk

lament stump
#

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

lusty hazel
#

standards so high you cant see the fkn top of it

dusky trail
#

thing can look good in quick sketch but draw the whole thing is different story

lament stump
#

It was some girl with neon colors

#

Damn amazing

lament stump
dusky trail
#

don't even notice because of how short it is

#

i'm not you after all

lost wagon
#

@lament stump just do it for fun and don't stress too much haha

#

having fun in the process is what counts

dusky trail
#

can't even tell which word is bad though

lament stump
#

Having fun is super important to keep you going

lost wagon
#

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

lusty hazel
#

when i look at my old stuff i go "bruh, i was proud of this shit?"

dusky trail
#

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"

lament stump
#

I'm always gonna be happy when i look back at my shity bird

#

It maybe sucks but it was fun

lost wagon
#

it's a good sign

#

that happens to me every week when i look at my old stuff from last week

lusty hazel
#

i guess

dusky trail
#

it is like looking back at your old OC you made and re-read all the weird backstory you gave it

lusty hazel
#

nowadays i look my art for more than 10 secs and be dissapointed in myself

dusky trail
#

but well, it also give you something to use for "redraw my old content" idea

dusky trail
#

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

lament stump
#

dusky trail
#

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

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

you couldve said like

#

“put all effort into”

dusky trail
#

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

whole cloak
#

the floor seems uneven
proportions well balanced tho

onyx pumice
#

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

molten flume
#

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

shadow nebula
#

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

molten flume
#

well, yeah i have to remove my negativity and pursue it carefully

shadow nebula
#

If colouring is something you really want to learn then doing studies will help a lot

molten flume
#

hm yep would try to study

dusky trail
onyx pumice
#

doesn't it look weird though?
i was thinking maybe a single color would be better but idk what color would work well

onyx breach
onyx pumice
#

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)

dusky trail
#

is there really a different there

wet pulsar
#

Maybe he might be a good reference

#

Or Dangropa monokuma

lusty hazel
onyx pumice
#

#1 - 20% grey
#2 - 30%
#3 - 40%
#4 - 50%

lusty hazel
onyx pumice
#

it's the mouth

lusty hazel
#

between 2 and 3

onyx pumice
#

right now my issue is how to make his mouth

onyx breach
#

why not just do this? Ignore the number

#

open mouth

onyx pumice
#

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

onyx breach
#

Then for pure black use white ink as smile

onyx pumice
#

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 🤔

onyx breach
#

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

onyx pumice
#

i meant like "a mouth appears when all black, but not when neutral"

onyx breach
#

Then just don't draw the mouth

dusky trail
#

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

onyx pumice
#

i think i'll just go with no mouth
thanks for the feedback/help

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

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

shadow nebula
#

use references when you draw. Ez way to improve while doing what you want

lament stump
#

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

lost wagon
#

yeah that's what did and am still doing sometimes

#

really gonna learn a lot from it

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

lone wagon
#

Do you think it's a good way to practise or am I just wasting my time?

north wraith
whole cloak
#

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

lone wagon
#

That's what i think too but the guilt is stoll lingering

whole cloak
#

it’s like photo studies but focusing on style instead

lone wagon
#

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%

north wraith
#

Really close already though, it's good! If anything the original uses less hard edges

lone wagon
#

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

if i could say something though

lone wagon

Go for it say whatever

full solstice
#

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

lone wagon
#

I didn't use any blending monde

#

Mode

full solstice
#

oh

#

blending modes are really important for shading

#

save you a lot of time

lone wagon
#

I used entirely just different brushes to challenge myself

full solstice
#

well

#

dont take this offensively but there's a difference between doing something challenging and something that only creates more work for yourself

lone wagon
#

The only blending I used is add glow I think for the eyes xD

full solstice
#

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

lone wagon
#

I have a habit of using tone curve

#

And the other tonal corrections

#

Instead of blending modes

full solstice
#

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

lone wagon
#

Maybe that's why my colouring is so dull xD

full solstice
#

perhaps

#

if you don't have the nice contrasts it can look dead

lone wagon
#

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 should be fine... Hopefully

#

"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 😄

or if you’re ultra lazy just do the pose in a mirror and take picture

I'm sorry that you think that way

I'm not gonna try and convince you in anything tho

it’s how life is

#

also probably because of where i live

lament stump

as i said before, it depends on where you live

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

whole cloak
#

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

plain bane
#

Yeah, it's all rough rn I haven't toned anything at all

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?

onyx breach
#

yup

lone wagon
#

It gained a lot of hype with its newest update

onyx breach
#

i'm trying to learn it so that when im outdoors and want to draw i can just use my tablet

lone wagon
#

Sounds good, heard its the best program for ipads and also for android tablets

#

Its practically an exact copy of the desktop version

onyx breach
#

it truly is

lone wagon
#

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.

onyx breach
#

I'm using a Samsung galaxy tab s7 and since I'm used to big screens drawing on it feels so cramped

lone wagon
onyx breach
#

ok

lone wagon

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

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

Your body is like 8 or 9 heads long

i would be confident enough to do a commision

well commission is a good way to practice too

molten flume

yeah but my skills are a bit lackimg though

coloring for instance

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?

"perfectionist" types

that one kind of a people they criticize you for something that is bad in your perspectives

lone wagon

I'm the perfectionist type but I prefer more traditional style colouring where its messier

Idk what to do xD

dusky trail

well that is the usual thing until you have enough draw for it to became "your style"

molten flume

from traditional to digi real way too quicl

No i meant I liek the traditional digital type styles

I don’t do lineart frequently though TeriCube

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

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

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

whole cloak
#

or yeah studying
but for stuff that’s not realistic overlay is amazing

dusky trail
#

can't really use the color itself to draw the lineart since some of them too light

lone wagon
#

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

whole cloak
#

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

molten flume
#

Its only just tons of trial and errors

hard to even imagine yourself and not to take references

God am shaking my head rn

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

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

lone wagon
#

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

molten flume
#

Painful as it sounds but i learned a lot from peeps that you never deveolp your own skills by just copying alone

lone wagon

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

molten flume
#

we could feel dumbfounded of some things accidentally goes in our favor

lone wagon

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

I hated high school art classes.

lament stump

same but i only had that class in 1st grade of hs

lone wagon

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

lament stump

so you're saying you were a bad artist

lone wagon

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.

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?

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

lone wagon
#

Have u asked what kind of outfit? Or what kind of personality is their character?

dusky trail
#

"i just leave it to you to decide" they say

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

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

Anyway I'm going back to drawing

lost wagon

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

lone wagon
#

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

#

This video has bene engraved into my mind

#

And itll be the first thing that pops up when someone mentions proko

lament stump
#

Almost every professional and every master who drew or draws humans knew anatomy to extremes

lone wagon
#

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?

yep

architecture there’s a 5 year program at many us unis
