took a couple minutes to do in Adobe Illustrator because I'm sick of my drawing tablet, vectors are chefs kiss so easy for a lazy person like me 
Lol
now it is the same as ref
not like a 100% cuz i didn't trace over the ref but everyting should be in the right place now
not with that dislocated hip
left or right side?
madoka doodle
now?
okay mabye now it digs even more
the chubby looking waist long with skinny arms only make it looks like a body of an old man
very simple one this time
Bro it's my body
then go hit the gym

Elysia's outfit's lineart is gonna end me🥲
Maybe someone likes my skinny body type
looks really skinny and long imo
but if thats your body then oh well
😐 🔫
I'll give it some clothes to make it look less skelly
i've put the sketch over the ref and they match like 90% so it'll be fine i think
Not looking forward to painting the clothes
crazy art skills 
heart eyes
she looks like shes having a good time
🤔
Hello there
@onyx breach does your hand get sweaty from artist glove?
deleted it before cuz didn't like the eyes. Gonna go eat now and come paint again.
I still don't use those gloves
With or without the gloves the hand naturally generates sweat because its working
Mine don't sweat
but mine gets so sweaty that i want to take off the glove
It does, you just barely sweat is all
The weather rn is too cold to sweat but even in summer it doesn't sweat.
Thats the point of the glove, to catch your sweat instead of it smudging your screen. If you remove it, it loses its one and only use
Just wash your glove regularly
at least its not like me
I went into a sauna for like 20mins and i only had a tiny bit of sweat on my forehead though so I think i just don't really sweat.
I don't sweat on my feet also. Even in 40degrees heat it doesn't get sweaty or smell
Same as armpits I don't smell under my pits
Your body is doing a poor job at cooling itself
Sweat is like the fan of a laptop
But at the same time I get so cold easily too my body just does a bsd job at regulating my temperature
Ye thats terribad in its own way
But the benefits is that I don't have smelly feet and I don't have smelly pits
my hands also slides smoother with glove
Geezsus how sweaty does it get?
I never saw the point in those gloves I didn't know what it was for, now ik
But i dont need it Xd
Its useless and gets in the way for me
try the glove i bet your gonna see the difference of sliding across the screen
it feels smooth af
Ye your hand glides in the glass
Lol wash it regularly , it dries quick anyway
Ah great, another case of commission where client only provides manga pages of the character reference entirely in black n white 
Already threw away my gloves, I used them for like 2 hours
And i threw them away cuz they were annoying
Lel
probably the most times i had to do mirroring in a single piece

Also had the chance to use my chair as the reference haha
Your artstyle looks different in this. Are you trying new things?
No, its one of the CGs from a game im working on and they asked me to copy a specific artstyle for these CGs
Oh makes sense
getting into digital art and looking at the people posting here shows me how much further i have to go lol
some real talent in the honkai impact server
love the use of the texture tho 
"Talent"
hey whether its lewd or not its still has good craftsmanship
What?
Does anyone know what type of clothing this is? I wanna draw it but I dont know what it looks like in the front.
beside the fur trim, it mostly just this style
nc
Really tried doin' somethin different
then how about draw they back sometime
i dont have any confidence to draw backs yet
how is this diff from the usual piece you do? 🤔
im too attached to the booba yet
then you can always try side boob
attempted to draw thin lines on the hair
i think that im satisfied but i need some refining
try diff angle next time then '-')b
its always front view with more or less the same pose
yeah i guess so
Ancient samurai clothing? Maybe it's not a dress I think the top is called the shitagi and the skirt is a hakama.
But it just looks very stylised that I'm not sure. It could also be the Chinese hanfu but who knows xD
it looks like a korean hanbok just modernized and stylized
I think personally it resembles the shitagi and hakama because of the fact that these were worn but samurai which are warriors with swords. And the painting has like trousers on and hakama old basically a skort which is trouser and skirt.
The samurai would usually wear armour over the top though but that one don't have armour
that is too different from a shitagi and hakama. Art style looks korean and has what looks very similar to traditional korean clothing.
it does, its a modernized version of it. Fairly common in korean comics
Ik cuz i modeled for a korean fashion show In hanbok and the hanbok for the males doesn't look anything like that
The pic is not loading im on the bus
Wait
U could also argue its the Chinese hanfu modernized
From that image
I was talking about historically on what it looks most like
well it is layered clothes either way
Yeah
Bit hard to discern but cool
you just have to add more drill
Because you haven't seen enough memorable twintailed characters
yes bcmiku is the most memorable
wait there’s osana Najimi
but her hair doesn’t have loopyloops
bronya
i think its most often the bangs doing the miku effect
Miku never pops in my head when I see twintails
Me too
The only thing that screams miku to me is the blue hair and pigtails
But it has to be blue hair as well along with the pigtails
That one is pretty I like the artstyle
from one with more volume on they hair to those with random horns/cat ears like on they head
why one of her thigh seem flat
Inori is more pigtail though
The difference between them is that they just have less hair
Personally I count them as the same thing xD
Same style just thinner hair
Plenty of pigtails/twintails characters that look nothing like miku
but ya, we have plenty of twintails
it just depend on which one leave a more impression on you so you instantly think of that char whenever you see someone similar
just like how you see a char wearing black jacket and using two swords will make you think about "is that Kirito?
calli in her kimono
can that mask even fit on her face
just wanted to add : keqing is kyoot with no cat ears
the one in my pfp is more cute, but we don't talk about that
GIVE IT BACK NOW
she looks bald without it
guys what is the black thing he's wearing called?
messy sketch but except clothing and clothing folds everything is done
i wonder if theres to much emty space on the floor
I'm leaving it emty cuz i want to push the eye to the hand cuz the hand will have light and the head, se thoes two will be the main focus
bg gonna be blured cuz fuck dealing with perspective, but because I'm going for the dark theme I'll leave light on that window behind him so his head pops out
this?
That's just Japanese standard male uniform for high school
IM SORRY FOR LAUGHING
well i had to find a ref
didn't rly think japanese male uniform would work
THAT ANIME YO
I'm so glad they are airing s3
not my taste
I'm into teasing so it's a dear anime to me
i have it a rought idea of how it should look like
i won't do whole grey scale I'll just use this as a ref, but it seems i have to do line art :(, otherwise I'll have to refine it too much
silver I'm sorry now i understand line art purpouse
okay I'm not doing line art that's hell
I wonder if they'll ever animate the takagi-san spinoff as well where they're already husband and wife with a daughter
That spin off is very wholesome when it comes to the tease jokes compared to this one where it's more on the childish side
there just way too many "teasing heroine, shy protagonist" for my taste
i don't hate playful teasing heroine on they own
but when combine with push over main just not as fun to watch
I can stomach the takagi-san anime but not for nagatoro
The way her expressions are drawn just gets on my nerves not to mention she gets possessive of him when other girls treat the Mc better than her like bruh
ya her face certainly annoying to look at...
specially that one normal eye and one wide eye
Yup
hm
i like every show that's like this
nagatoro is one of my fav
I've read the manga but dropped it
I almost did the same thing to quintessential quintuplets as well coz Nino's attitude prior to dere phase was insufferable
did you just spoil the show
the thing bother me with that show is they made the girls look so different just so no one else but the main char can tell who is who
none of my friends like teasing types, same with you guys, why do ppl hate them so much
Because they're chaotic neutral characters
Not to mention, they color their hair differently but in the mc's pov theyre all pink...
it just so hard~ to tell the different between a boy-cut hair and long hair
and in the early stage of the manga, it seem they all have more similar shade of hair
so it could be either the publisher or the author just changed it later to make the girls more pop
What I hate the most was Nino, she's been treating the Mc like human garbage the whole time and just flipped 180 and just turned dere dere all of a sudden. You can't just excuse that attitude and forget about it the next day just because she's treating you better all of a sudden.
Just makes my blood boil
normal people may don't care about the hair color thing but as someone who draw stuff, it just really bug me when chars with that much color yet no one able to tell who is who
Coz like I said, they're only different in the reader's pov so we can tell who is who but for the characters inside the story they're all pink
the same way you know how a RPG work but then when you read isekai series, author keep pulling nonsense like they never play game before
like you know, a witch who beat slime for 300 years and get maxed lv
even though anyone play game would know the exp you need to lv up will increase each time
but anyway, we just gonna go deep in off-topic at this rate
Ye lol evrryone knows your exp bar gets bigger everytime you lvlup in an rpg
Also, rpg games normally have ranking system for highest lvls, dmg, hp, etc so that players can feel good about themselves yet for some reason ppl don't know her
but she's hot
If the Mc was a masochist if be fine coz then her attitude towards Jim would turn into comic relief
playing tsundere is very effective in real world, except when she bullys you to the point of saying die you human trash
ppl always talk about how you come to want someone more if they don't want you back or in tsundere case pretend not to
Ye I don't mind tsundere troupes, what I hate is when it gets overboard to the point they just treat someone as garbage but then acts all jealous when a potential girl treats mc better
Just makes me 🤢
Anyone watched saiki k series?
yes why?
I was so confused at the end of s2 and i was like is it over on clif hanger
And them im like it's been 5 yrs and i don't think there's s3 then i had to go on yt only to find some 3min ep of a part i didn't see and that's when i realised reawakened is like s3
||why does he have his powers in 1st ep of reawakened if he lost them in the special prior to this||
Spoiler^
i feel like it's missing something idk
head is garbage rn 😟
is this correct? also where should i draw the arm because idk where to go from here
So messy
nothing wrong with messy sketch, its just a wip after all
Wdym just move that up on canvas and put two lines out of it and boom arm
as long as artist can understand it should be fine
Who said it was wrong
Its a good start. I'd recommend using a reference for the hand if you didn't. The hand and fingers are missing joints and you're missing the thumb.
i dunno where to slap the arm without it looking wrong
take a photo of your hand in the same position and you'll know where to put the arm. I'd recommend always using a reference if you're not sure
The amount of time you said use reference is countless lol, but some ppl still say drawing from reference is this and that
casually trying to find a way to prop my phone up to take a picture and struggling

is it fine if i dont include the thumb as a style choice since it looks out of place
No
Well everything in art is fine
But would leaving the thumb really make saiph happy?

Now take a almost naked ref photo oh your self and send
Leaving the thumb out isn't s style choice and will make the hand look very weird
Saiphs pfp matches her current emotions, candz be careful
1 sec
its how i draw rough sketches
like half asleep right now hows this 
Congratulations
Uhg the handddd i hate it
i might just leave it
You Drew 2 lines
Just don't peave index finger to be longer then middle
Looks weird
Btw what program is that?
Or as cool kids call it software
ive been trying to and it looks so ugly either uhg
why does it matter to you
id rather not have my laptop explode on me while i draw
i shit you not its overheating with just discord and 2 yt tabs open
laptop fan go brrr
im using my ipad rn bc my laptop is at my moms
ipad gang
Well head isn't the main focuss anyway
i just wanted to draw ganyu with an afro, ended up drawing a granny
well technically ganyu is more than a granny
i guess this ok for drawing this pose for the first time :p
i wanna say something inappropriate
can i
aki tryna flex his cps
the device doesnt matter, skill matters
i draw on my phone
well, actually it depends
same 
almost done 😩
how does this look? 
the thumbs should be visible in that shot unless they point toward your body
they shouldnt stick out if theyre behind the middle finger, no?
they will from that angle
how would i angle them to be behind the middle? sorry cant really think well right now
the way you draw the fingers, the hand should be low enough for the thumb to be there
just simple draw the tip of it near the index finger
from the way you set up, it should be like this
could you redline where it should be to make it behind? ill probably forget by tomorrow if i dont have something saved
since im going to bed 
but i just did~ =3=
also if you want to thumb to be hidden then you can straight out the palm more
the way you draw the palm look round and more visible under the finger there will create a more "high up angle"
@hardy yew just gonna throw you both style like this
add some knuckle like the left one also help flatten the hand out
trying to remember how to paint closer to anime style
hu tao wip
thank you
Bayonetta anyone?
all i think about is Dark soul
no
💔💔
she's looks hot
wip
nice hands 
i just watched a vid about leonard de vincis life, how did a man do all that in his life, what the fuck
thank you
add some sunglasses and a hat, maybe some gold chain and it can look like she is rapping
Snap back to reality
snap back to air

god colors are cool, i didn't even give him grey hair i gave hi8m like gray blue color for hair and it looks grey cuz of everything else
same with canvas thing
@dusky trail you use pixiv right?
how do you post an image without getting pixelated?
Mines getting punished for being too pixelated even its a high quality pic
Is that in the oixiv app?
yep
try uploading on browser
Hmm wait
Its probably an app problem
yep browser
It worked fine on browser ?
yeah
kinda too large in original, had to resize it pretty much
even in the resized pic dosent even work in app only in browser
Thanks man, great help
yo i should start posting on pixiv huh
If you guys are up for it you can also open commissions there
I'm still yet to open that fanbox you talked about
imagine pay for Aki's fanbox
fanbox is basically pixiv vesion of patreon, just a lot stricter
so unless you prepare to put out something worth people money every month then it may too soon for you
good thing i back Blade Galaxis back when he just opened his fanbox so manage to get some uncensored one ufuufuf
i like Blade's art but boi he love to put his stuff in really low resolution
There's plenty of uncensored things in Google
but you want more of your fav artist uncensored version so you can steal some technique for certain part
like i backed Takanashi Rei since he has some interesting sketch
while Rei also an artist really put detail on the ribs
Amatsukaze
Blade and M-da T-rou also put PSD file as their reward so you can also see how they do they thing there
though M-da's file is... quite big
Its still not above 250 mb yjo
it is the amount of layers he used since M-da draw a lot of variant along with background
like with this one
quite a lot of layers go in to it, the high light, the sweat, the foggy effect and the color layer
so it is quite fun to dig in they PSD file and see how it work
Yay for navel
We had a convo about this some months ago and delay was the one pushing me to do it and i think you said something like that as well, idk if you guys were joking tho
joking it is
i dont have like a place for real money to go yet
or i probably do but my parents manage it
time to make a fake ID then go to the bank
i still like Gudako more than Gudao
Understandable, have a nice day
I thought those were bullet holes...
Me as owl 🦉

Does this look like it could be the beginning of something?
Are you trying to draw HOV?
I asked because of the hands it looks like you're trying to do her signature finger click
Like this
finger clicking good
but well, from the way the hand look, it is more like one of those "sending kiss" scene
elysia
GOEEEETIAAAAAAAAAAA
Well done, man
thanks!
Hi akii
No, it's a vtuber named Multiverse Monarch
Yup, That's what it is hehe
rate my shirt hading
why is her earphone's wire seem to go into her breast then out there
wip
bc lol i shade over lineart im gonna draw them after
Ofcourse, he's my favorite TG character
plus the way Ishida wrote him is just tragically amazing.
Ahhh, they really messed up season 4, his scenes would've been more impact ful of they didn't rush it

whats that in her mouth?
Froth
she has rabies
and in pain by the looks of it
Yup
i don't get cosplay
mabye i do if it's for fun, anything that is fun is okay to do except braking the law but y'know
but i don't get professional cosplay
yes you look cool if you do it right
but compared to the caracter you're cosplaying you are never gonna look even close as good to it's art form
so you can do it for fun but how do you make that professional, do ppl pay money to see you in cosplay?
ig if you cosplay someone and you're aslo hot and you do nsfw content that can earn you money
then again doing nsfw content when you are hot doesn't requier cosplay so then it comes back to it being fun and you wanting to do it
got some time to develop on her design further
i think im heading the right direction.
any suggestion or opinion?
this character is supposed to be a caring mother. btw
it's a way of making promotion for the series/game etc. not all professional cosplayer are also selling nsfw content as far as im aware.
she will be appearing in my future manga that im still working on atm.
i have seen it
but i don't want to further discuss about it here tbh since im afraid i might get muted or so <: (
And promotions done better with art, my point is compared to art cosplay doesn't make sense if it's not for fun and if you want to be cool/cute
Okay
all kind of promotion has it's meaning.
i believe
art is a good way and so is cosplay
it's just they're focusing on different people.
you might be more attracted towards art related promotion because it's more relatable for you. for someone else who maybe doesn't appreciate are as much as you might get the attention from a cosplay.
i know its not christmas but i wanted to make padorus of my ocs
yin looks so bad help
Guys do you have socials anxiety?
social anxiety or anxiety about posting on social media
I don't have that one, cuz if ppl on socials Media/Internet not like your stuff it doesn't seem like it brothers me, oh they don't like my stuff 10 commented it's shit but i got 5 likes so I'm happy with my likes and I'll go for more likes, if it results in more bad comments then oh well idc
Bot that anyone really comments on your art that it's bad, ppl respect you for putting in the work so even if it's the worst thing ever none or very few are gonna say it
I have a social anxiety irl, I can't seem to start conversation with strangers aka make friends, i just can't get my self to go and say hi I'm aki
Not that i would say aki irl cuz it's a nickname but you get what i mean
I have some social anxiety irl, I just think that “what’s the worst that could happen” bc chances are it’s someone you won’t see again or it’s someone not super important
don’t think it over too much
if anything, posting art on social media gives me more anxiety lol
which color palette (I’ll push contrast and shift composition later this is like a thumbnail)
the first one seems like dark and musty like there are a lot of clouds covering the moon, while the second one seems more like its brighter, however the moon isnt fully covered or there is a gap in the clouds. For me personally the first one looks more realistic, however idk what style you pefer
ty
I got the first by putting a filter over the second actually 
i see
stickers

thankies thankies 
I think its more on just having fun and wearing your fav character's clothes and im pretty sure they dony rly consider it as a job but rather a hobby
But if you get money and enjoy your hobby its killing 2 birds with one stone
Nothings better than doing what you love the most and earn money off of it.
I've heard that, but people say at one point you begin to burn out
Had a photographer friend, man got really burnt out bad
You only burn out if you keep doing the same everyday you need to give yourself a break. Its just like a game, you play so hard you'll eventually feel burned out no matter how much you already spent on it. Give yourself a breather and do something diff from time to time so when you get back to what you were doing, you'll have a fresh mind and new motivation.
facts
I tried to test putting on my artwork as a pfp the other day but it was way too blury as a pfp
How do u fix that? XD
I have no idea still on why my paintings goes blury after I make it into a jpeg
don't export as jpeg, always export as a png
you also typically want a lower res for an icon
This is genshin but...its also part honkai ref
but she using a sniper~~ =3=
well, i handpicked it to be a kriss vector
intentionally swapped
also im in pain for not getting wakamo
didn't get her either but got Karin and new year Serika
who i decided to skipped her banner but then so up in this one anyway...
I should have been skip the yukata aru dang
i regretted it
90 but a eimi and a heckin aru dupe
well i just gonna start save up and wait for summer rerun, probably show up in 2 months
she probably not limited anyway so someday
do want her too of course since i still have no good mystic type
Day 2 progress. god, I'm not a professional in any way, shape or form
well beside the rather unstable looking lineart, it is good
ye
and anxiety in general
I cant remember someone asking if you are a pro so don't worry about that
when am I getting it's good
go ask Sel for that
huh
go praise him Sel
drawing on french schoolwork 
Accidently drew Sirin while drawing Cecilia by memory
Looks pretty good actually
thanks, i guess it was a happy accident
Biology art :p
What application do you guys use to make these art pieces?
I am new to illustration world and currently use adobe illustrator, is it good enough?
Depends on what you wanna do, illustrator is really nice for vector art!
I use Clip Studio Paint for painting and manga/anime style illustrations
Cool, I dived into vector art and kind of felt a bit of limitations here and there
I wanted a good app for anime illustrations
Thanks
photoshop
I use photoshop
ha ninjad
XD
I use ibispaint and occasionally procreate 
I use Ibis paint and CSP
does someone have an refs of that style where they use pink and blue to color
no but id also like to see that
idk if it's a style or just 1 pic is like this
no its a style lol
i wanna learn how to do illustrations
that have like dynamic colors
Search up synthwave aesthetic pictures
then start learning
some commissions 🧍♂️
really nice coloring dude ^^
i made emote for my oc

ik
The eyes can't be flat like that
They curve with the face cuz the head is some what a box it has 4 sides and eyes fall/ curve to other to sides
Seems like you got it right on the mouth tho
did they ask for critique
Idc, I'm always glad if someone takes out their time of the day to help me improve and understand more about the thing i love, art
what if its stylized?
There's 2 types of art, 1 is where you follow the basics understanding of form and make beliveble stuff with thoes set rulesz then you can create a style where you break thoes rules but to break them you gotta know them 1st
And the 2nd type is you do what ever you wantz if it's fun to you to put two dots and a line and call it a face sure do it but don't expect it to be good in other ools eyes
pls tell me why you need to know anatomy when you wanna go for the opposite god aki
i thought it was just an optional thing to study
F you, I'm not trying to sound smart it's just how things are
What question
What is "opposite"
stylized
To break the rules you must know them to understand how to break them
And style is you breaking the rules
nonono, i just thought it would be pointless to do that
No need to know every bone and muscle if you draw lolis but fundamentals are needed
just did a roblox commission i think its kinda cute
nice color choice

yea that didnt help
there are no rules when it comes to art
well it depends
it depends on the style you wanna go for
but for the most part there arent rules
rules of anatomy lol
my anatomy is sht lmao i take tips from people to improve it
youre doing great 👍
thank u
Ofc, that's why someone is good and someone is good in their own mind
i think everyone is good they just have their own style
Making this you followed some "rules" like half rule to put eyes on half the head nose on half between eye and chin etc
ye theres too much perspectives to look at art 
That's the rule you followed
If you didn't follow the rule the face would look weird that's all
yeah i mean im not saying i dont follow rules but i am saying that even if someone doesnt that doesnt make their art bad
If you like the wired then you don't follow the rules
ok i like it picasso
But if you know how to break the rules like Picasso then you become Picasso the all mighty great artist
that would be great but i wanna be around to see my art flourish
didnt u hate abstract art awhile ago
who
aki
oh
I still don't like what Picasso did but that isn't the point, the point is that he mastered the fundamentals and then went to develop his style like every other artists
Now why did he get so popular for it i do not know nor i wish to
thought most artist got popular cuz they died
bro if someone doesn’t ask for crits don’t give it
nobody asked

I don't care, I'll give it if I want to
you’re just making someone feel worse about themselves if they don’t specifically ask
even if you say it nicely they still didnt ask for it LOL
I don't say shit to finished art cuz i now if you oost a finished product you sre not here for crits but if they send a sketch
To art discussion channel
There's no point in doing so if not to get feedback
art discussion AND WIP... there are people that draw for fun and are not looking for crit...

Sure
That lesson was about putting things to harsly
And it's stupid to force me out of trying to help, the ppl i say stuff to have no obligation to listen to me it's a message on the internet you can ignore it but I'm just giving advices
simple critique can be too harsh in itself if someone doesn’t want it
not everyone feels comfortable even posting so the point is that critique isn’t helping that (potential lack of) self confidence
or some ppl just aren’t interested in getting critiqued and want to move at their own pace
haaaah this thing again
yep
Aki never learns does he? 💢
oh shit shii is back
I’m always lurking
I’m just so deep in chibi hell due to one request that’s why I’m inactive

giving advice : only doing that when ur asked to
being an asshole : "i can do whatever i want ur not forced to listen to my advice"
chibis are fucking amazing theyre ez to draw yet cute
uhuh
until you forced yourself to make 40+ of them


honestly
get a 1 year break after that
Oh I will get a break

then go draw someone other than seele
I am drawing other people

Just wait and see what am talking about

It’s supposed to be a simple yet it evolved into one hell of a request
go draw the other seele
because of me and my ideas
did you even finish it?
no
All of them have base colors now
I just need to shade
and polish after that
Someone lend me their sanity
:”D
a commission or one of those dumb goals you thought was a good idea to do
request
ah

I would say yes but Im just like you at 0 sanity
copium
take my op
I’m still surprised no one’s ticked off to the point they reported him to the mods or something
idk, but he is insufferable to bear to the point we dont even care for his antics anymore
Shii is the legendary Shiibi anyway, can just make 40 chibi in a day
just dont mind him, let him be on his world alone
1: SENSEIII NOOOO
2: my sanity’s literally gone sensei
i should finish my thing today then start planning something for valentine too
wow you can even make a lot in a day
god
dunno if in valentines i shold compile a lot of my fave girls in every game
its kinda my first time doing that so i have to look for pinups oof
feel like if you do, the pic just gonna be 80% boobs
yep you guess that
ironically guns and booba is the only thing i want lol
she technically looks like akagi from al lmao
but they at least gave her a cool mask
yeah badass mask doe
still 100 pulls didnt even give me wakamo
liek whyy my luck suck
that is why i only ever do 3 pulls on every banner, only do 5 if it is the banner i want
and i probably just gonna do captain-verse gang for valentine
pyro depleted, no raids, not even a single stage to clear
that way i can do Rosemary and Kongming first just incase i got busy and didn't finish it in time
K but it looks good the way it did so I didn’t see it needing to be fixed
it just Aki forcing his style into other people as usual, no need to mind much
that say, i do want you to throw a grey background or something so the preview doesn't look so bright that their eyes are the only thing i can see
I'm here spending weeks to finish 1 piece and hr here finishing 2 in a day. How speedy are u? I can imagine your hands going at the speed of sound
I just learned about this case today
Sorry for the big delay 
Better late than never, but his frustration over the artists end today
For a reminder, everyone can report an agressive or disrespectful user via modmail ( dm the bot and state your inquiry )
Will do then o7
This hurts, because it's true.
:v
But i also don't do art everyday
Cuz work tires me out I'm not mentally ready for art
Even when i have the energy I still can't make art fast enough cuz I lose focus easily xD
Its awful
I got called out
When I play my Playlist I can go draw for several hrs straight only stopping to eat etc
Me too though that's the thing I draw for hours without eating hut within those hours I'd get randomly distracted
With like the music that's playing in the background I'd randomly dance around
Or I'd go to discord to check stuff and be like it'll only be for a bit but I end up being for hours
Or I'll have a convo in vc with someone while doing art and then I'd get distracted tlaking instead
I always have music in thr bg but half of the time I end up doing karaoke by myself and have a dance off by myself
And forget about the art that I was doing
Its like this when I play games too I'd be doing an important mission and it'll only take like 20 seconds for me to get distracted by grass
i usually just listen to music or drama CD while drawing
listening to podcasts or to music is great for concentrating in my case
and good thing cygame love to voiced all they dialogue so i can just let it autoplay while draw
silly Delay, thinking i can't understand jp~

miku doodle
I do that too but I get distracted by the music even though i also listen to jp music and i hsve no clue what they're saying
then time to listen to the beat only
I tried playing BOTW and I totally forgot the main purpose of the game, I spent the entire time collecting horses
While the world was in chaos
though i'm the type can sing along while also drawing
I cant do both xD
My multitasking skills is like 3/10
The other day when I was drawing I was trying to build the pyramids with my sweets that I got to keep me going while drawing
I totally forgot about drawing for a bit
Ans another time I was just staring at my ceiling for ages and though to myself, wouldn't it be cool if I painted the ceiling with all my favourite characters so when i wake up it's the first thing I see
But then i was like nah that's too cringe
That's my kind of distracted, it's so random.
I also have a habit of getting out of my seat and just wandering around my room and then sitting back in the seat.
Especially when I'm in a good mood.
then i guess the only way for you to focus is to make you constantly suffer always in bad mood
Does anyone else do this or is it just me?
I hope its not just me cuz I'd feel like a weirdo that needs to be checked up.
Dw there are a billion people in the world someone will definitely be like you
For some reason I feel like i just got a giant needle thrown at me, idk if that was meant to help or not xD
Ik ik I was just joking, found it hilarious actually.
Especially when doing something alone
Oke 
Yeah i need someone to tell me to get back into reality cuz I just doze off doing weird sht
Same XD
I purposely bought a pen with loads of bits I can fiddle around with cuz it helps me concentrate more at work.
I taught myself how to spin a pen around my hand in high school from my pure randomness of being distracted by weird sht
I csnt do proper pen flicking tricks though, it's not like that.
Like this but without the throwing of the pen and it's not this fast
Anime makes it look cooler than it actuslly looks
Ye thats rock bottom lvl of mental focus right there 😬 . I can see ppl labeling you as one with very long turn-around-time in the future...
Wdym by long turn around time?
yup, mobi
im too depressed to draw
but when i start, its hard to stop lol
Ty
i want to draw rn but im at school :(
Why?
100% right
Gl
All you need to do is get better at using fast strokes and your lineart time should also improve along with it
Yeahthat sketch has so far only taken 1 hr apparently
😭 youre acting as if its aquick fix sddjklv;’
Practice fast strokes everytime you're holding a pen
well as long you have clear vision of what you want to do, it is not that slow
but of course, unless you are the type go through your draw again just to fix the tiny part sticking out even if no one else notice...
Definitely one of the most annoying linearts i did so far
Not to mention the coloring part 
This one as well, rip png ver 😐
doodle out of boredom 💀


Idk if you're writing out lyrics or it's a poem
I think this is cool. You really like creating circular compositions
Ye i like them coz they allow me to add more detail without the detail eating more area around the actual character
One of apho 2 illustration's had a really cool composition
I enjoyed looking at it
I thought it qas very smart
This one
I enjoy looking at this
I think that the composition is really cool
i really should stop doing stuff like this
also ill be drawing any cursed honkai pic if u dm me it
draw my shitty theresa and turn this into a cursed img 🙏
Heh
aki’s banned from this channel for aggressiveness?
well
ig no more arguments
about anatomy and shit
honestly
it always ticked me off when they went on and on about how someone got anatomy wrong
but then they themselves don’t have the best understanding of anatomy either
aki did definitely improve over time but
they aren’t some master
they aren’t some god people should listen to even if they never asked for advice
but it’s in the past now
no use on dwelling on it
I agree but imo even the most masterful artist probably shouldn’t give critique if the artist didn’t ask for it
exactly
if they’re just drawing for fun then let em have fun
i like seeing people grow too, and i still have plenty to work on
i used to critique people even when they didn’t ask, but i stopped doing that a very long time ago
i know from experience how it feels to be receiving unwanted critique and giving unwanted to critique
it’s not pretty and feels so damn rude
my bad, not feels, it is rude

its the main reason as to why i dont really post a lot of art here eifjsbd
the first time caught me off guard and uh i didnt want it to happen again
yea...
but i suppose i should try and share my art a bit more
so here's a wip of my D&D char i play for a campaign i'm in 
the hairstyle is really cool 
thanks 
i actually had a lot of fun drawing it lmao
literally posted art and they said
"so messy" with some annoyed emoji
and on another art i posted
they also gave me critique without me asking
man am i glad aki never saw any of my sketches
i'm the kind of person who sketches things out then refines it
same
my sketches are like really messy
i like carve the sketch then refine with another layer
here's an old sketch
i actually got farther along in the progess
ooo
i like the light
found it
nice
it lost a lot of the curvature near the head for some reason
idk what happened
"pog light ig" 
YEA LMAO
thats me sometimes
i was indecisive on whether or not i wanted to keep it
so i just clipped it out from the original sketch and slapped it on a different layer 
diluc wip~
@onyx breach your art is good
smug boi 
yuhh 
🤔
Its unfair for nyx to make appearance so to counter the imbalance I present to you, Seele!
lol
I just felt a strong sensation of deja vu here
someone roast me, it's been a while ever since I drew non-chibi things
donte
but that still looks like chibi
a very fine piece id say just the hair feels off
id say maybe pratacing a bit on perspectives would make this much better

too human looking, need more chibi
chibis are the way to just escape the painful reality of always breaking your hand in anatomy and making things much cuter and easier for yourself
its looking really good but the eyes need to be adjusted as her left eye (our right) is too big and is sitting on a different angle from the other eye and the body needs some slight adjustment but I see a lot of improvement from several months ago
I thought so too, and idk how to fic it w
ah
thank you saiph-sensei 🙏
also, about the slight adjustment, what should I change?
I wanna use this as a practice thingy for coloring
i think i had a head perspective example saved on my phone
ill send it here hold on
maybe that'll help
i use this template myself to get the correct angle of eyes when drawing
thank you so much for the pic qwq
I just hope the minor adjustment isn’t the head
please don’t tell me it’s the head
head is good tho
but the eye angle is a bit odd
@w@
Look at this bud, it will help
maybe side
right now, the left eye is looking toward you, while the right eye is too far off the one side
naruhodo
darn, 120 rolls no wakamo

the adjustments would be to the body and eye. Draw a line following the tilt of the head and you'll see that the eyes are not aligned. You should also size down the left eye (our right). For the body use a reference because currently each part of the torso looks like it comes from various body types and sizes

snek
its coming for you
Not all of it but I did most of it yeah
Still having trouble with basic stuff because of my wrist, but I made Senti's head jewel
I wish I could work on stuff more, but having a bad wrist makes stuff difficult to do
