tbh, it's not my best picture i've made, but it was very relaxing doing it, i did nothing special, no filters, just used the fill bucket, different colors, smudging, that was it.
and you know what, because it's not grandiose, I think it is that much more beautiful.

Alright, so I'm making an OC KAN-SEN, based on the USS Edson (DD-946), which is a Vietnam-war era U.S. Destroyer that is a ship museum from where I live. I've already set a facial foundation bases on her many captains' faces and I need ideas for Appearance, clothing, hair, body proportions, etc. Anyone up for offering ideas?
By the way, this is merely a rough sketch, I can do a lot better if I had decided to take my time, but since it's a sketch..
i.e. https://www.pixiv.net/en/artworks/102074699 is one of my works
Here's some more info on her:

I think it's about time you should start placing more weight on your lineart; you know what I mean? You have a solid grasp of basics and colouring, your artwork would greatly benefit from it in this form.
I often see your art and it seems you got stuck at this stage. It always looks the same and while colours help later on, it makes the end result flat and far more difficult to look at, because there are no major focal points and eyes don't know on what to truly focus.
When done properly, linework typically guides the eyes and brings more depth to shapes.

But could you tell me how to do both?

It’s okay you don’t have to say sorry for that I willing to help you painting so you could feel free to ask but all I want to tell u is i probably can’t help u much cause this is also my first time to paint the latex texture so take a look at my video
Also I not good at doing a full gloss so I could probably help u for only a semi gloss
limber harbor
It’s okay you don’t have to say sorry for that I willing to help you painting so...
Thanks!
Could I ask a few questions if that's fine with you?
tender mango
Yes of course I do blending cause it’s very important part and I using air brush tool to make a white or black shadow and the bright or white reflection color I would recommend you to using normal paint brush cause it has a thicker layer of paint then you have to blending on the top and bottom of the paint and it’s done

the design looks so good

well i got a chance to flesh out the design
usually for vtuber front only works

does she have a tail?
native furnace
no
design too clunky to add a tail on top
she has a jacket too
gotta add that in
light flint
do you do the rigging too, or just the design?
native furnace
only design + model art
l2d animation is iron vertex
she debuted a while ago, but only requested a chara sheet now
light flint
oh wait so its the same combo as nazuna
light flint
or well you helped with nazuna
native furnace
well yeah
help is the easiest way to understand
but i have other nazuna projects unannounced

either way, having your name on an official vshojo member's art is still crazy
native furnace
you'll see one they come out

please tell me its nazuna in a sealittle outfit and rigging

nah cant do that with official art
hmm i should do chara sheet for nazuna in the future
i dont think she wants one
so that would be fan art

like caribou antlers are insane, so i can understand going with cutesy ones

or sth
mommy dommy mouse is also
uh
well that one had a hard face to adjust
took me a while to give the right face angles
it turned out decently well
light flint
and i mean haruka's works for the velvet antlers, so its fine
but like i have never seen even a png deer girl with a good set of antlers
native furnace
like i said l2d is limited
my upcoming designs are all made with l2d feasibility in mind
light flint
yeah but like im meaning deer girls in general, not even the l2d ones
light flint
even the antlers in bambi are kinda scuffed
light flint
i mean i hunt deer, so i cant not focus on the antlers
but if you want handlebars, stick with goat horns
light flint
i mean you have to mess up pretty bad to not make accurate goat horns that also look good on l2d
native furnace
depends on what kind of goat horn
and how big the turn
l2d is hell
i dont do l2d but i learn the limitations of it
well i don't do l2d YET
light flint
sometimes i wonder if 3d would just work better than l2d
native furnace
it will but people like l2d
light flint
or actually i wonder if you can combine them
light flint
like you know how houseki no kuni is the 3d gem people, but then they draw 2d faces on them?
and it looks super good
i wonder if thats possible without setting their computer on fire
light flint
yeah i mean the main issue with performance is trying to do everything on one computer
native furnace
not everyone has a streamer pc
well streaming
idk if you can even run the model separately

yeah idk how the l2d vtuber things work software side, but at least get the recording and streaming on a 2nd computer to let the gaming one breathe

Any helpful tips on improving?
I would suggest looking for references when you starts to draw something. They can be really helpful and can help improving anatomy. 
little tiger
Any helpful tips on improving?
Study from reference, tracing is okay for study purpose imo, just don't upload it in social media.
lucid talon
If you trace I’d just say post it with a side by side comparison of the original image
And if it’s on social media, ask the original artist for permission first
languid light
Tracing is good practice, but in terms of stylistic choices, referencing or doing an art study off of another artist is also good
There’s a YouTube that does a lot of different art studies
Mindset is also another key player, always have a good mindset when looking to improve
Draw on a full stomach with good sleep, helps the motivation 
Tppo is the art study guy, Pixiv also invites guest artists so they can show their techniques
My favorite was from Rosuuri
elfin prism
Any helpful tips on improving?
Start from the very basics: https://youtu.be/gl0VUHLJuls https://youtu.be/m5w3Yd-6s6o
There is no walkaround
- Learn to draw clean lines and shapes, basic figures
- Start learning basic anatomy and construction, then move to figure drawing
This obviously encapsulates the basics of drawing, things like perspective, line weight etc
If you don't know about these, study the topics first; it doesn't take long.
A good way to understand objects and shapes is to study them irl, observe nature and practice by drawing them
If you won't feel comfortable with drawing figures yet at that point, the second best choice is to draw plant life and inanimate natural objects like trees, rocks and rock formations
They are excellent objects to study form on

Definitely it takes time to learn the anatomy cause it's very hard

A quick question for the more tech-savvy art people here; I'm currently looking to swap out my old monitor setup for new ones, got any good recommendations?
I'm currently eyeing a couple potential monitors, my current setup consists of Asus ProArt PA238Q monitors and I'm mostly swapping out to get 1440p and new features + higher refresh rates.
Only IPS; I also like to game quite a bit, so I'm looking for something that blends best of both worlds.
It needs to be affordable as well, so all the top/highest-end monitors are out of the discussion
I'm not particularly tied to any brands; I'd prefer an Asus or LG but I'm open to any suggestions.
I'm seriously considering the Gigabyte M27Q P the most right now.

people have completely sold out the pro versions, so if you wanna go for those, you better act fast

Yeah, I'm going to order them. Seems like the best possible monitor to get at this price range, while sporting a lot of the high-end features.
It actually has a built-in hardware sRGB clamping mode to reduce the gamut from 135 to 100%
Might be a matter of taste... but in general, modern monitors display way too oversaturated colours with standard sRGB use
In all honesty, it looks very good as well with those thing side bezels and a bit thicker bottom bezel.
Makes it easier to set-up a multimonitor stand
I was considering some of the TUF monitors as well, but they are nowhere near as good for a similar price tag and from what I've heard from others, Asus seems to be having very serious QC issues in their factories as of late. Comments seem to confirm that, the back bleed seems to be horrible with them.
MSI is very similar to Gigabyte while LG is generally better, but as I said - I really dislike how those monitors look. They are also a bit more expensive.

There's also the new PA278QV which is basically a new, updated version of my monitor with 2560x1440 27" display, looks even better while being more or less same design and has a 100% 75hz refresh rate on all ports, mine only had it on HDMI, DP was limited to 60hz

A thin coat of semi gloss black
And 1 spray of super silver

Pretty, jealous that you can do backgrounds

Backgrounds can be created as long as you got the character design disabled, again it takes many days to create

I use a pretty simple setup really. Iwata Ninja air compressor ($150-$160 depending where you get it. Good machine though) you’ll need a moisture catch if you use this though since it doesn’t have one built in which is another $20-$30. I have two airbrushes, one syphon-fed one gravity fed. The syphon i have is food for fine line detail but requires higher air pressure to use and can be frustrating. But if you’re starting out, I’d say the iwata neo cn gravity-fed will be a good choice for $65. Overall you’ll be looking at spending a couple hundred at least. Personally i go the little extra mile for cleaning kits and materials to keep em in good working order. My syphon airbrush has been with me for 20 years and in excellent shape 🙂 most paints are fairly cheap too, running $4-$5 a bottle but the mileage per bottle is pretty good.

Otherwise youre a bottom feeder

But what matters is if you enjoy it
native furnace
i can live OK
but im living in vietnam
so i can afford more stuff
but if i was in LA i'd get a studio job
elfin prism
La is a shitty place to live in atm
native furnace
oh i know
im just saying i can afford it with drawing
but it's not optimal
for sure
elfin prism
Id say vast majority of us and most western countries
But when youre from east, you can deliver same if not better work for far less, undercutting everyone
And make a good living
elfin prism
You should
elfin prism
I meant, in your case you prolly dont have to fight for work
elfin prism
But you have that advantage in case + lower living costs
native furnace
yeah
elfin prism
At your point, everyone would want to work with you, bar aaa
For aaa you need contacts
Doesnt matter how good you are
native furnace
contacts are the real kicker
yeah
tbh communication and adaptability helps me more
than just pure drawing skill
elfin prism
I did work in aaa for a while, would never want to return
