[pseudo rock]

The eye aren't leveled

You need to flip your art when you draw, the face shape is weird and doesn't follow the skull

[errant shuttle]

the eyes r leveled u just need to move the outer one closewr in bc eyes dont rlly hang off the edge of the face like that theres usually a lil space

[bold narwhal]

lol,

Hi

[subtle jolt]

how do I get access to the #🎨│my-art channel ? D:

[wanton bronze]

theres a channel and you need react to it to get it or smth

[steady trench]

yeah i checked and the lighting, nose, and mouth made it obvious

yo anyone need tips

[river elk]

shit I WILL

[static badge]

Hello

[modern kayak]

Hm

[knotty mason]

Anything i can do to improve a drawing style like this?

[chrome rover]

Play with lighting a bit more, your shadows are great but imo unique lighting can really bring out an anime style drawing (like these! They were reposts so I couldn’t find the original sorry!)

[knotty mason]

Thank you 👍

[crisp hazel]

hello, im making this, what do you think about the color palette?, is harmonic? or is better change it (is not finished yet lol)

[crisp hazel]

And how do you recommend lighting it?

sorry am noob

[hoary moat]

The pallete looks quite interesting, but I feel like the green is a bit out of place, it would be a bit better to make it more blue/purple, I think
About lighting, sorry, don't know how to help
.

I tried to imitate AI art; any tips on how to make it more AI-like? I like the way AI generated images look but I feel like passing something I didn't make as my art is bad, also generating images does not give you enough control over the result, but I still want to save that surreal/dreamy "vibe" in my art sometimes.

[quasi yarrow]

maybe add some things that are irregular or unrecognizable

i ran that image through an ai generator and got this

[hoary moat]

Thanks
It's a bit hard to do since there's a really strong tendency to rationalize everything, but I'll try

[hoary moat]

At least someone will sleep by my side. I'm fine with that
Forever? Even better.

[teal cairn]

Should I restart it on drawing paper because the notebook paper is folding on the roughly shaded parts

[chrome rover]

Love the shading! If you have the time commitment to redo what you did, go for it!

My face proportions look wrong, anyone know what it is before I draw the line art+render?

[pale falcon]

I think it's that the lips are in a front view, while the face is in a 3/4

[chrome rover]

Ooh wait that sounds right, thank you!

[sudden mural]

the eyebrows also dont match the angle of the drawing

its kind of front view

[chrome rover]

Ooh okay thank you, I’ll fix that now! You guys have been a huge help

[steady trench]

I suggest flipping it and then fixing any errors

[lilac wolf]

The lips look a bit flat and the eyebrows are very front view. I would also say that the ear is a bit flat also. The eyes should also have eyelids! Remember that the face has roundness, sharpness, angles etc and the face features look different from every angle. Try watching a few videos on yt for some more advice. You could study the human head for more accurate proportions. I really recommend just drawing everyday. Even if it's a doodle or a full drawing, everything counts!

[pale falcon]

Np!!!

[urban kelp]

Heyall, how do you set it up to not have to erase the drawing from the previous frame to see the onionskin?

For animation i wish it would just be onion skin without an actual duplicate on the next step.

[mint elm]

if anyone wants to learn how to draw goku hit me up

[stable acorn]

My drawing looks weird to me can anyone tell me what I did wrong

[obtuse rivet]

the arms are positioned weirdly i think?

(rly cool tho)

[tight basalt]

them eyes a bit off too my guy and i think you didnt do much shading cuz shading highlights a lot

maybe a bit too yellowish color used for the skin but overall good bro

[mint imp]

probably not advice but can anyone give me colour suggestions for this guy here? (2nd image is the original pallette)

[lean lagoon]

The original pallet is very nice! Maybe try a a lighter cooler grey see how that looks though I think it looks amazing!!

[mint imp]

really REALLY late reply (because i was sleping) but thank you very much!

[lean lagoon]

no problem

[mint imp]

probably have finalised her colour, any feedbacks?

tbh i should'eve drawn the full body instead

[lean lagoon]

It turned out amazing!!

[runic wind]

The only thing I'd say to add would be shading to it to give the 3d parts more depth

It doesnt have to be overboard as it is already dark, just enough to make it pop

[mint imp]

another really really REALLY late reply (same reason) thank you very much yet again!

[mint imp]

i am still figuring out how to shade using a diferrent brush at the moment

[simple rock]

[mint imp]

best art ive seen in two weeks

[teal cairn]

render hair how????help😭

it looks so flat idk what to do

whenever i attempt to shade it just looks muddy

[lean lagoon]

Maybe try adding warmer/darker colors

[celest magnet]

have you every tried the mute purple on multiply layer method of shading?

[deep current]

hi

[obtuse kite]

Unfinished and looks good, what do you guys think?

[outer willow]

no advice here, anatomy is on point and the folds on the cloth is nice and so is the lil shading thingy, 9.9/10 deducted 0.1 points cuz its a bit lewd

but great job 🙂👍

[lean lagoon]

I really like how this turned out but I feel like somethings missing idk what tho 😦

[paper galleon]

Any advice on rendering in general

[obtuse kite]

As a beginner, for I do shading first in a different layer and a different layer to overlay for lighting and another overlay layer for highlights

Sorry if it's a terrible advice

[blazing arch]

i just use a hard brush lmao
use layer effects and clip shade and shine over it

[vital latch]

Chuck me some advice, it’s my first time doing kemono furry art

[dusk narwhal]

Hi

[grim rover]

Anyone know how I can improve?

[grim rover]

Hi
I'm Silly

[quartz horizon]

what kind of improvement do u need

[quartz horizon]

what kind of improvement do u need

[dusk narwhal]

Hiii im như im from vietnam

[vestal vale]

Any advice on poses?

[worthy fox]

Jojo poses

[vital latch]

Just making sure all the bits and bobs are in the right places and that the anatomy is correct

[bright tide]

The drawing looks great but, to better understand where you can improve, try to clean up your sketch, it helps understand where you actually struggle and your true weaknesses 😉

[obtuse kite]

Almost done and do I need some improvements?

[blazing arch]

not about poses, but, perspective helps with the dynamic of how a drawing is composed
also makes it like 10x more interesting

[vital latch]

bahaha thanks, i usually do that with my line art

[vestal vale]

Thank you, how do i do perspective?

[blazing arch]

oh.
Its too long.

[final vigil]

Based on where your at in your art process and what you need help with I believe that 'bluebiscuts' video called 'this will help you understand art better || form (prt 1)' will help with understanding of shapes and practising anatomy

[vestal vale]

Thank youuuu

[quartz horizon]

i never draw a furry type of art in my entire life, but for the sketch, i thinks it's fine enough. still, like saps said, try to make the final product, cuz the sketch can still pretty much change depends on what kind of style youre pouring it into

[vestal vale]

How do i do like

The arms in perspective

[strong bane]

Need help
Cant make it cooler

[lean lagoon]

@strong bane it's already super cool but maybe try darkening the background (unless its supposed to be light) or adding something that won't take away from the person

[strong bane]

Ic ic that works thx

[lean lagoon]

np!!

[errant shuttle]

Draw a line of action for yhe arm and start adding shapes to it

[errant shuttle]

Something like this

It's like 4 am if jt looks off ignore it

[errant shuttle]

Do some research on gesture drawing, should help ur sketches

[errant shuttle]

Make it grayscale and check ur values, add some dramatic shadows for atmosphere

[lean lagoon]

@errant shuttle thx!! (Plus love the pfp)

[errant shuttle]

The right arm (my right) is too far away and looks dislocated / being held up by his clothes

[errant shuttle]

I could explain more extensively

[lean lagoon]

@errant shuttle Wdym?

[errant shuttle]

I could go into more details about where to add shadows etc if you want and what i mean by check ur values

[lean lagoon]

Sure you could DM me if that makes it easier

[errant shuttle]

Yhh alrighty

[stable acorn]

Ohh I see ty

How about this one

[errant shuttle]

AYEEEE that looks great imo, jf you think it looks off maybe flip the image

[errant shuttle]

In like a drawing software like ibis or something

Or if u can just flip em in ur gallery that'd be fjne

[stable acorn]

Oh k ty

[crude quiver]

HOW DO I DRAW KIRA EYES

[quartz horizon]

like this?

[small iris]

yea close enoguh

I’m working on dio part 7

I need help on eyes and mouth

[quartz horizon]

like this?

[teal cairn]

Yeahhhh

[teal cairn]

Blud is Yoshikage Kira

[haughty lynx]

Today is my favorite holiday

[onyx trench]

Does anyone have any tips on how to render the bubbles on this egg

[late mesa]

I’m not a professional
But most likely tone down a little on the blues and purples for the bubbles

Honestly I think it looks great as is
Amazing work

[onyx trench]

Thank you!!! I’ll try

I had a hard time picking the colors for the bubbles cause all the colors are so random so I just chose blue cause it’s a decent contrast

[quartz horizon]

the color of the bubble tells me that the egg is on frying process (quite raw), but the outer egg is already fried, so its kinda weird for me, but it looks really good damn

[vestal vale]

Any tips on faces (i'm noob)

Especially for the female one cause it looks flat

[vestal vale]

Thank you

[covert oyster]

better than mine

[cosmic lantern]

For the girl you could add some shading to the cheekbone going towards the ear to give the head some depth n maybe shade a lil under the ear to make it further away, with the guy you could add some more necklines and maybe an adams apple to add that extra masculinity to the piece!

[bitter patio]

Guys my art is very very trash

Can someone suggest good tips for when im drawing

[latent locust]

How do I be patient when I draw something? I always try to finish it as fast as possible and ended up with wacky results.

[latent locust]

Okay thanks

[cosmic lantern]

I like to draw fast, it was bad at first, scratchy lines n whatnot, but i got better and better each time and began to zone out in the process. Dont focus on making the art, just have fun making the lines and little details here and there.
I can make detailed faces on procreate within 5 hours now, longer than that n i abandon it tbh.
It depends on the type of artist you are. If you wanna draw fast, draw fast. If you wanna go slow and add that extra intricate details here and there and try make as few mistakes as possible, go for it.
Dont burn yourself out though, if you cant take art slow then just dont

[vestal vale]

Grazi

[blazing arch]

a thing i do so that i feel like i do progress and also is good for planning my art is that i like to color in my sketch on another layer with basic colors and main shading, as well as establishing a color pallette
that way looking at your sketch(if its not too messy)
makes it look nice and honestly is more motivating for me at least
most importantly is to not rush it obv

[vestal vale]

How do i draw the shoulders

[lean lagoon]

@vestal vale maybe something like this would work

[vestal vale]

[outer willow]

moth : )

[lean lagoon]

@outer willow #🎨│my-art is where you'd want to post you're cute moth if you aren't looking for advice

[outer willow]

oh dw i am looking for advice

[lean lagoon]

what advice are you looking for?

[eager edge]

Yo isn’t he from naruto?

[lime sentinel]

Ok so, here’s just some constructive advise from me, for the moth I’m guessing this is a lunar moth so you would want it to look extremely fluffy - I recommend doing lighter pencil strokes around the fur to make it look more bouncy and soft, also make sure to control the shading to create a nice contrast for the fur so it doesn’t look streaky. Right now because you drew the outline of the shape of the moth (arms, legs and body) you only filled in the fur on the Inside with straight lines - so to make it look better I would rub out the outlines of the arms and legs (because right now it looks a bit circular) and just start replacing the outline with fur strokes

[lime sentinel]

As for the light source I’m guessing is above so just take note of where your shadows will be, I can already see that you have shadows at the bottom but if you want it to look more effective, make it darker at the bottom and make sure to make the lighter parts at the top of the moth look more visible

[brittle estuary]

Also your shading strokes could follow the shape so it looks 3d

[sharp trellis]

Hi i'm new here!

[stable acorn]

What could I improve on drawing cars and how do I properly color it if I don't gave alot of colors

[outer willow]

that was very detailed, ty very much 🙂

[copper viper]

What can be done better here?

[wooden moth]

Hmm, coloring obv and a glow to it

And if you dont color

You could just add a mustsche it would look great

[eager edge]

I got pinged-

[severe pier]

The side profile seems so odd for no reason. Any advice?

[foggy jolt]

your head should be able to fit in your torso twice

[mild tapir]

The neck is extremely short, and she needs more upper chest area

anything I can do to improve it when I color?

[silent kiln]

[dire shell]

hello people, id like some advice on how to make good looking eyes

[hollow nimbus]

i need an example to help myself on rendering

because is just so bad or rushed in the end

[high ore]

watch a ytb tutorial, look at references or just pratice in general

[dire shell]

i wish i had a drawing tablet for my pc

mouse pad so hard man

[unique sparrow]

Draw the steps of each eye at the same time, ie. Don’t draw one full eye and then the other, draw the eyelids of both and make altercations to them as you go (and with the rest of them as well, of course.) Doing this helps keep them more even/similar to eachother :).

[unique sparrow]

And, this avoids the common art trope of not being able to draw the “other eye.”

[dull flicker]

Hmm, I like to draw eyes 3 lines on top, two on the bottom, add a line ontop of the eye to show the eyelids. I'd like to add thicker lines at the ends of eyes to show eye lashes. Make sure to draw both eyes at the same time, so it is easier to draw them evenly. Make sure to draw the pupils as full circles. These are more typical eyes, however atypical eyes are really fun to draw aswell. So just learn hte different styles and act apon it

[quasi yarrow]

This is great advice

[rapid sequoia]

I need help with the perspective

Because this looks ASS

[lean lagoon]

@rapid sequoia is the camera pointing from the bottom looking up?

[rapid sequoia]

Yeah

[lean lagoon]

ok so the way you drew the angel is great the only thing that seems out of place is the foot on the right. it's too far out for the way the knee is bent

[rapid sequoia]

I see

fixed the highlights, js need some advice 😭

[unreal tulip]

i really like how you did the hands, i think you could prob work on shading. try to have a mix of hard blended and soft blended shading

[unreal tulip]

replying to this bc i feel like i should probably ping

[zealous spindle]

here's some tips on hand anatomy

sorry for the crappy hand writing

[tough ivy]

thank yuuu this acc helps a bunch! will use this in future

[zealous spindle]

here to help. your welcome

i can probs post some more hand anatomy tips

[tough ivy]

that could help for sure! i'm usually rly good with hands but was absolutely throwing today lol

[zealous spindle]

well i hope my tips can help out. ive got about 3 years practice so i guess you could say ik what im talking about lol

[tough ivy]

same actually! I've been studying art for about 5 or 6 years now, but only started digital last year. i've got the main anatomical things under my belt but shading is my weak spot 😭

digital is honestly really difficult when i've been doing trad for so long

[zealous spindle]

i get were your coming from

[tough ivy]

yur advice has honestly made a lot of sense though! thanks a bunch

[zealous spindle]

good to hear

[unreal tulip]

ofc

[zealous spindle]

honest to god i thought you were talking to me

anyway here's some more tips. i labelled the stuff i talk about red

[zealous spindle]

sorry i wasn't spersific. i studded the hands feet nose eyes and lips for 2-3 years. ive been drawing for about 11 years. since i was 4 edit: the only things i drew when i was 4 was scribbles of my family, but i did draw so im counting it

also some people think that references are cheating. its not, references are a good learning curve and is recommended. tracing is cheating but can sometimes help as long as you don't post it as your own at least state the artist you traced .its copyright ,so don't do it.

[misty bloom]

I have one question. Do you learn one area of a body (for example hands) a few months, years etc. or do you learn everything at a time? Cause ive been practing poses for a few months and they have been getting better and better but since I noticed that my hands and muscles were bad I thought of practing them, but im scared that im gonna loose skill of drawing poses if yk what i mean...

[zealous spindle]

what i did was do both

one page was for poses and anouther was for hands etc

and you wouldnt lose your skills unless you went back to it after 2 years or so but you would get back to your skill level alot quicker

muscle memory

[misty bloom]

ok thank you , cause i was confused since u said you studied feet, nose, eyes and lips for 2-3 years, so i thought u concentrated only on those things during that time

[zealous spindle]

yer

so i dedicatid a time for a couple of days to do those things but then after that time id draw normaly

[misty bloom]

ahhhh ok, ok. thank you ":D

[zealous spindle]

no problem

here to help

ask me anything. any time im free from thersday to sunday almost always

[misty bloom]

ok, ok good to know

[zealous spindle]

just dont msg me to much. i need some me time

lol

[zealous spindle]

yep

[ember epoch]

looking for anatomy help (for the body, not head)-- trying perspective

[tight basalt]

just draw only gojos lower half

[tight basalt]

jk, maybe look up a reference

[teal cairn]

I was thinking of adding rain or something

Although I was also thinking about adding clouds

And like rays of light

[forest harbor]

Turn your head to 90°, His head is missing a bit on his back, the pose is good tho Adding rain seems like a good choice, definitely play with something from above regarding the composition you chose

[teal cairn]

On normal occassions I personally wouldn't advice drawing in this kind of perspective

Perspectives have a bit of a tricky visual information , normally takes a lot of practice to indulge the information and intuition into your long term memory

[tight wren]

The neck is too skinny and the head is too squashed I’d use guidelines to start out

[tight wren]

Why is the thumb so disproportionate to the other fingers

[tight wren]

Use guidelines or reference to better proportionate the body anatomically it looks kind of weird, if you’re going to do realism you should try to use tones and no outlines is what I’d recommend btw midtones are very useful for areas like arms and places between shadows and highlights

[obtuse briar]

I am anthony barbosa

[zealous spindle]

personaly thats how my hand looks but thats like that cuz thers a bunch of joints. if i was to say. for each movment in ur body thers a joint for that , and your thumb can do like 360s and shi how do you expect that to fit in your hand as small as posiable

im sorry for shi wording

[teal cairn]

Blade ball 😩

[tight wren]

No but if you’re being realistic those all fit in real life, if you’re trying to make a 3d or 2d realistic hand using outlines wouldn’t it have realistic proportions

[zealous spindle]

it dose

im use to drawing my hand so my hands that i draw i based of my own

if i was to try a different hand i could but thats my main hand style. if that makes sense

and even then it doesn’t look the same cuz i wasnt trying to make it as good as possible i was just sketching to show my tips

thanks for asking tho

[tight wren]

Oh ok it just looked weird to me that’s all

[indigo ore]

baby hands

[zealous spindle]

im 16

[indigo ore]

same

[zealous spindle]

ok

and what do ur hands look like

[bronze heath]

where did you make this? looks great

[hazy dome]

Adobe Animate, though if you are going to use it, I suggest keeping the auto save time VERY low since I lost ~ 30 minutes of progress due to a crash.

Adobe Animate is very unstable, though it was the most convenient option for me.

[bronze heath]

thank you bucket man

[hollow kernel]

Any tips on my art style? Should I switch or change anything up?

[sick pulsar]

the only thing you should change is linking your social media in your bio!! i really wanna see more of your art goddamn! you've got a nice style but don't feel married to it if you dont like urself you can always change it.

one thing im noticing is the lack of shadows in both your artworks, so maybe you can change that, and see if you like what it looks like afterwards.

[hollow kernel]

Thank you! And I'll definitely work with shadows lol. My insta is YummySoupCan!

[tight wren]

better shading try not to smudge too much

[dense jungle]

does anyone know how i can make a homemade stylus for laptop and mobile(surface capacitive)?

I need tips on how to draw legs like knees and below

in a minute im gonna do a full body sketch and I'll send that

[shell moon]

WOW

[teal cairn]

The hands don't rlly matter I went lazy on em

just need advice

[tight wren]

Take a look at realistic anatomy might help you out on that stuff but don’t forget about proportion make sure it’s well balanced too

[hollow moss]

anyone have tips on woman anatomy? I try to use reference but it kinda ends up looking like shit, I have a reallly hard time drawing the facial features, neck, and head. It ends up looking like something a 5 year old would draw rather then someone who's actually trying, I also would like advice on charecter design, like ocs and that kinda stuff

[tight wren]

Send me in dms

[rapid sequoia]

I need help with the shoe bruh

Cuz this shit look ASS

[hollow moss]

Okay

[merry acorn]

Art books on general human anatomy and proportions are very helpful for me. You can also find others on design and appeal. If you want a detailed rundown of what you’ll need that’s where I’d suggest you look!

[merry acorn]

I would try drawing from life, I would start using the website “Line of action” they offer free art references for faces, hands, figures + more. Drawing from life and spending time on gesture can loosen up the figure.

Generally the arms a little short and the head is slightly miss placed on the shoulders for specifics details. Also don’t be afraid to have big sweeping confident lines, while hatching lines can help they can make the whole figure feel stiff. I like that you have the sketches underneath, I would bring some focus on the posture of the spine.

Hope this all helps!

[hollow moss]

thank you so much!

[teal cairn]

Thanks bro

[open stratus]

I suck at art(especially faces) does anyone mind giving me some pointers to make it look better

[steady trench]

It really depends on the style your going for, but a general tip is to do studies of artists you like and how they do facial structures, and to look at references

[open stratus]

Idk what style I can barely draw stick figures

[teal cairn]

Style is the way you draw for example- cartoon, anime or realism

Me personally I draw in a mix between styles

[finite carbon]

I change style every line i make with the pencil

[teal cairn]

😭

[sterile lintel]

how do I get the screen to stop moving when i draw?

[finite carbon]

What app or programm do you use?

Nah, do whatever you want!

Unless it happens to be.. furry p-

Okay but like how much? 🤔

[teal cairn]

For what… 💀

[finite carbon]

This is more of a request for someone to create a meme, rather than a tip, can somone make a chad nerd? Like, a buff nerd emoji in a drive and power pose? Like flexing his muscles? Would be interesting

[teal cairn]

I can try 😭

[tight wren]

???

[tough ivy]

I really like this style!

[hollow kernel]

Thank you!!🫶🏻

[wanton lichen]

So this was like a really quick sketch but i was instantly reminded i still cant draw hair, how do y’all draw hair?

[wet wedge]

Chunks of hair rather than individual hairs then maybe adding individual hairs sticking out for detail

[finite carbon]

Draw firstly the head mask, then draw many bananas from one point, sorry i'm not really good at explaining, when i get home i'll make a drawing to show you

[wanton lichen]

Awesome tysm

[wanton lichen]

Ah ok i see I’ve been kinda brushing where ever so that helps a lot

[finite carbon]

First the head base, sorry if it's crusty but i'm tired, then the head mask and then the bananas or other shaper that will match chunk of hair and place them where you want the hair to be, lastly ✨details✨

[wanton lichen]

Not at all it looks really good thank you so much for the help, ill start practicing later today

[teal cairn]

How to post videos here?

[reef steeple]

Does anyone know a free app in which i can use gradient map?

Thank you:0

[teal cairn]

Drawing is a relaxing thing you do its not i want to be good its i will be

[gray fox]

Hi

How do I put photo in the message?

I mean, I can't put it for some reason

Lol

I got it

Just had to click agree

Anyway

This is the first time I drew shades in the drawing, so I want you to tell how I can improve here.

Shades are just really hard topic for me

So I drew them only in the places I could draw them more or less normal

[finite carbon]

Try making shades with the multiply funtion instead of just maiking it a darker color, and remember the mothers of all art ✨ANATOMY AND CLOTHES FOLDS✨ but if your art style doesn't comprehend them, then it's still good, also, try making a layer after all the drawing and make a color and put the opacity like, rlly super low, and also, if you want to have a colored light effect, make the shadows the light color, and remember, there is no such thing as too many shadows and lights, only not enough, sorry if it's bad explained

To be honest, they look like it's just the clothing being darker, that's why the multiply function and lower opacity tip

[gray fox]

Thanks

[silver coyote]

how do i send screen shots in to this channel

[finite carbon]

From phone you should just tap the plus on the right, while on pc, just drag the file from the folder to the writing bar, tablet should be the same as phone

[reef steeple]

Its for premium only

[sour flame]

I've recently been working on this drawing but at this point the anatomy seems off. Is it just me or is there actually a problem?

[peak anvil]

Arms are a bit small.

[sour flame]

length or width?

[violet notch]

Width

[sour flame]

thanks

[hybrid cedar]

guy how i join public lobby???

guys*

[ocean beacon]

Coloring tips and line art Or anything fr.

[peak anvil]

Small nose, where bridge???

[runic wind]

keep your line art consistent, either give most or all of line art or keep it painted, the light hair and light background doesn't give it the definition it needs from the body or background. The eyebrow should probably have some definition as well to see it better. know your light source for your shadows, i see you shaded the hair and clothes possible shade the neck and face as well to add to that.

[peak anvil]

What do you think I should add or change?

[ocean beacon]

Appreciate dat!

[ocean beacon]

U rii

[mossy linden]

how do you draw with a mouse

and not have it be bad fr

[rancid tundra]

Confident mouse movements. The more you move the mouse erratically, the shakier the lines will be and the worse they’ll look. That being said having smooth mouse movement is a skill to learn on its own and takes practice drawing lines, circles, and shapes over and over again.

[rugged birch]

Can someone give me any tips I feel like they look wonky

[teal cairn]

The woman on the top looks kind weird to me. Seems like you drew the lips really low. Try raising the lips and nose a little bit

The lady on the bottom has a long neck I think but idk. Looks like her eyes are aligned funky

But do ask me to draw anything just sayin what I noticed

[rugged birch]

Real

[rich beacon]

it seems to me more like the problem is with the chin and ears
the chin, too high, the ears, too small

[teal cairn]

Oh shoot I didn’t even look at the ears 😭

[rugged birch]

Help I’m getting dragged 😭

[rugged birch]

I attempted a redraw of the first girl is this any better? @rich beacon @teal cairn

[hollow kernel]

Way better! Good improvement!!

[barren jolt]

Should I ever make any adjustments

[sonic oyster]

HOW TO DRAW BETTER plz not like this

i suck at art btw so i pass on it

sad

[hollow kernel]

Make your lines smooth not shaky and figure out your art style !

Any tips on making it more alive instead of flat and bland

[crude bramble]

I have an art style but I'm on mobile with no stylus wth do I do?!

[peak anvil]

This scared me so much, OMG.

[peak anvil]

Better. . .

[rugged birch]

What?

[peak anvil]

I pizzed mine shelf.

[rugged birch]

Why is it scary?

[rugged birch]

What’s that supposed to mean

[peak anvil]

They be scary lookin, mate.

[rugged birch]

Why is it?

I don’t understand

[steady trench]

anyone have any tips for clothes rendering?

[rugged birch]

???

[peak anvil]

Yea.

[rugged birch]

I don’t understand why it’s scary

[rugged birch]

Tell me why you think it’s scary

[peak anvil]

To be blunt? They are horrid to look at, they are ugly, their faces will haunt my dreams forever until I die because they are so unimaginably ugly.

[rugged birch]

So your just racist

[peak anvil]

Huh?

[steady trench]

Man that’s not a tip… that’s just kind of rude.

[peak anvil]

THEY ASKED!!!

[rugged birch]

😐

[steady trench]

Ok so I think they were asking for why you didn’t like the drawing, but your response was just “their ugly” without giving advice

[peak anvil]

I'm Native American.

[rugged birch]

Ok?

What does that have to do with anything

[peak anvil]

How am I racist?

[rugged birch]

“Their faces haunt my dreams”

[peak anvil]

AND???

[peak anvil]

BTW I said "will haunt my dreams".

[rugged birch]

I’ll take it that your 12 or 13 and going through your hitler phase where you think being racist is funny

It’s ok bud you’ll grow out of it

[peak anvil]

Bro, I'm 16, and Hitler was a mid painter with horrible anger issues.

[peak anvil]

HOW AM I BEING RACIST?!

[steady trench]

I think that you guys might be misinterpreting each other’s criticisms because I don’t know how we got to this-

[peak anvil]

Same.

[rugged birch]

Bfr

Your the problem if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say it

[peak anvil]

Nah.

[rugged birch]

Bye

[peak anvil]

YOU LITERALLY ASKED ME!!!!

[rugged birch]

🥰

[peak anvil]

Yea, you asked.

Anyway...

[peak anvil]

Steady your hand, maybe thicken your brush?

[peak anvil]

Horrible grammar.

"You are the problem, if you do not have anything nice to say, do not say it at all".

Dang @steady trench, I get it, I'll stop.

[steady trench]

I mean… you can use “you’re” and “don’t” though, and the “at all” is more of an add-on than a necessity. Plus, correcting the grammar doesn’t really respond to the original message’s statement. Anyways, we should probably stop arguing about this issue because the argument isn’t going to go anywhere, and it’s more deconstructive than constructive.

[steady trench]

Alright cool 👍

[peak anvil]

[hollow kernel]

Umm idk, you need to practice not everything comes easy

[swift zenith]

does anybody have a good tutorial on drawing hands

[ember crystal]

aye.. tips fir hands??

[solemn geode]

Wanna see something I painted

Nvm I'm not done yet

[tight wren]

just practice

get better

[tight wren]

think of every finger individually while not forgetting about proportions, as well as palm

[teal cairn]

Nothing in specific but perspective changes alot for hands and helll, kinda everything but I feel it affects hands and feet most

[patent bobcat]

i ned art edvice

can somebody help me

what to improv?

this is the picture pleas tell me to improve

[teal cairn]

Well 1 the eyes aren’t complete circles they have shape. Definitely start with references though. They can help alot with starting off. You can get the right proportions and shading with references

Also the chin is very long and try to be more symmetrical

[harsh pecan]

Search up draw like a sue that’s how I learned to draw

[tight wren]

you mean sir?

[patent bobcat]

ty

[patent bobcat]

ty also

what about now?

[knotty timber]

I think a good tip is that the eyes are always an eyes-length apart

Ofcourse there are different art styles and that rule dosent always apply

[tight wren]

try making five points across the face, one on each side of the face first, then one in the middle of the face, then two in the middle emmpty spaces. Those two should be perfect for the eyes

It's called the five point rule

[steady trench]

I found the same image on pinterest through google image search... did you draw this or did you take it off the internet? If you drew this, well done, but if you didn't, than please don't post art that isn't yours.

Also, the one from pinterest was posted 3-4 years ago.

?

[devout flax]

I’m no good at digital art lol

How do I make it look better? I just started

I don’t do art often

[spare yew]

Any tips to make it better?

[devout flax]

Awww so cute!!!

My only comment is the arm closest to the camera is just a tad funky looking, but it still looks really good that’s like the only thing I can think of and then again I’m not even an artist lol

[spare yew]

Yeh now that I look at it again the arm is kind-of funky. Tanks

[devout flax]

Of course! :))

[steady trench]

Idk man I just had the thought like “I swear I’ve seen a similar image before”

[rugged birch]

Blud it’s not your art

[spare yew]

Good this is good, at least we know now that the art is somebody else's and we don't praise the wrong guy 👍

[zenith thicket]

Someone help 😭

reference

its embarassing to show this

[zenith thicket]

mf from brawlhalla

[devout flax]

Bahahahahahaha xD

[unique mirage]

dont be

[runic wind]

my advice is to use multiple references, get the body anatomy correct and make the clothes on it working off of what you made

[spare yew]

My advice is to start with the " blocks " of the body in the position you what, then start adding detail from there. (there are many tutorials online to practice from) and with a lot of practice you will get better

[zenith thicket]

I'm gonna do that

Thanks 😛

[tight wren]

For hats try and imagine them in 3d, when his hat curves around it looks different in 2d

[devout flax]

Tried this stupid FlipaClip challenge thing

I can’t draw in that program lol. Or animate for that matter xD

How do I make it not look like a sticker on a background?

[tight wren]

try adding saturating instead of shading

for example, making the colours sharply contrast, or making htem complementary colours

[azure marlin]

Do you guys have any tips on improving this?

[barren pecan]

what is that thing behind her?

[azure marlin]

those are like supposed to be extra fins on his sides

kinda like wings, but they are fins

[barren pecan]

cool, you may make some on his shoulders

can someone recommend program for drawing on PC?

[frank basin]

clip studio, it does cost money, there is also fire alpaca or sm else.

[half pasture]

Your proportions are off, idk if u did already but try using a reference. Also your hair is very stiff and so is the rest of the character if you look at other character art there is a lot of movement, smthin that could help is keeping your sketch in with your line art and cleaning up the guide lines. Again im talking out of my ass cus idk but the quality of your drawing changes wildly in certain spots so it looks like you traced, nothings wrong w that ofc if ur learning but we can tell

[tight wren]

its a example lil bro

[azure marlin]

but i didnt trace, also this is an original character. I use a web browser drawing thing called kleki and the brushes arent the best. I def do need to work on proportions. Thx for the advice

[devout flax]

I don’t think it’s that bad at all. The main things I see is the hair is a little stiff like some people said but for proportions, the main thing is focus on is the right arm is pretty short

[unkempt mortar]

Medibang

[twilit kettle]

[devout flax]

Naw man me too

[unborn saffron]

what do you enjoy drawing? maybe I could help?

[unborn saffron]

any advice with freddy?

[opaque bronze]

difficult in gartic phone but in other drawings you should make the shadow colours ¨blend¨ more so it looks a bit better instead of lines

[opaque bronze]

most of the time things like people ya know

[unborn saffron]

do you have any pictures of your drawings?

[unborn saffron]

I appreciate that, yes

[opaque bronze]

I don't draw much I will look for some drawings then

[unborn saffron]

alright 🙂

[opaque bronze]

I drew this in art class

And this during math class

Only ones I could find

[unborn saffron]

I found these on human anatomy, these are good references 🙂

it's kind of simple in the 2nd

[opaque bronze]

thank you very much😁

[opaque bronze]

so like sketches for the base of a person

[unborn saffron]

yes, and with your drawings, maybe darken it a little, maybe just the outsides of them

[opaque bronze]

k thx

[opaque bronze]

you got some tips for other things to draw like inanimate objects?

[unborn saffron]

I kind of struggle with inanimate objects, but first I'd say just be simple- then start expanding into more complicated areas

[opaque bronze]

ok thank you very much

[unborn saffron]

of course, happy to help!

[indigo cradle]

if you're actually serious, don't try to draw every object in a single stroke

[high bane]

Write something you like about your favorite artworks/artsyles and mix and match with those elements (example bright colors, very thick lineart, stylized eyes ) another thing you could do is draw the same thing in different style and pick your favorite and work with that.

thats the only advice i can give 😅

[grizzled cobalt]

any advice? i mainly need tips on how to draw the scarf better

[arctic slate]

try only having one of the scarf ends drop

[tight wren]

Id use colour theory and saturation on background if you really want the eye to pop, as well as adding a bit of glow on the eye, and tinging fur black

And don’t be afraid to blend strokes, just don’t get lost in the sauce

[dire ember]

any tips on drawing muscles or detail anything i suck at anatomy (repost)

[teal cairn]

An important thing to remember about the chest is that the pectoralis muscles are directly connected to the deltoid muscle. This leads to the chest being seamlessly connected to the arms/shoulder.

i kinda have my style but i cant draw realistic stuff, life idk how to draw a cat in my style, or a certain person

[raw cradle]

i think it looks good but i feel like using the same transition over and over again looks off

but you can do whatever

[raw cradle]

reference pictures i suppose?

[high bane]

If your art style is realistic and let's say you want to draw a cat, just simplify the cat. Don't draw any details. Just draw the basics of what a cat looks like

Idk if thats the problem but it looks you did both at the same time. left side has an angle when right doesnt

[hybrid ginkgo]

Kinda inbetween that, also its her*

I actually kinda fixed it by lowering the left eye it looks better

[unborn saffron]

just for a little help with the ears (I know that it's a roblox character, but I still think it helps

[unborn saffron]

because you're a top member, different roles have different colors

[raw cradle]

what’s too meme we

auto correct

top member

[unborn saffron]

you get top member for participation in the gartic guessing games and if you hit a certain amount of points you get that role- idk if thats the only way

[raw cradle]

ah

[unborn saffron]

that didnt really answer the question but top member is ig top member because of how many points you have?

[raw cradle]

idk

[elder veldt]

Any advice

[raw cradle]

I feel like the face should be facing towards the bushes a tiny bit becuase of the angle

but I’m not the best so I would ask some other people

[upper kindle]

Ok let me help you here

[teal cairn]

This server knew people like me'd need a place like this

[upper kindle]

Here some stuff that could help so cuz of the perspective the way the legs are drawn the character isnt going in the right diretion

How whoud it look if going right way

[upper kindle]

Something like this

[elder veldt]

Thx

[upper kindle]

Its nothing just keep up the good work👍😁👍

[hybrid ginkgo]

Thank you, but the ears are like 90° angle so its unique not like most cat ears. This makes it kinda hard tho

a unique-ish design is usually a hard one to draw...

[dire ember]

that doesn’t help the fact it looks nothing like a human

idk how to draw hands, head, body, faces feet’s…

[limber marsh]

i tried lol

mine looks more anime-y or semi realistic so take my style with some salt

but my suggestion is, imagine as if you're wrapping the parts of the face along a sphere with lines. so that the face doesn't look crumpled. you wanna make it look solid. notice in yours, that the right eye looks as if it sunk into the skull. the face also feels smudged to the right.

next is, try to draw hair with more flowy, one stroke lines. i would only do what you did with the hair when im doing final renders. during sketches, you want the hair to be clean too, so it won't be confusing when doing line art.

intentionality is also important. subtlety is hard to do in drawings because of the lack of context. it looks like she's either pouting or her face just looks like that. but its fine, this is nitpicky anyway.

[grizzled cobalt]

try drawing hands at the level of the start of legs
im sorry if you didnt get me, i know this is a confusing explanation but idk how to tell otherwise

here's a picture so you can understand better

also try keeping the hands the same size

im pretty sure if you will practice it a lot, it will soon look a lot better

but you dont have to rush it

drawing humans (even cartoony ones) is pretty difficult, but you'll get it soon

👍

[somber ivy]

Tysm 😭🙏 this def helped a lot, im for sure gonna steal that ear from u cause idfk how to draw them lmao

[somber ivy]

Wait also which brush did u use cause I can’t find one I like and I can’t tell if the lines r too thin or not 😭

Or do u just have a sketching brush and line brush

[limber marsh]

actually, dont steal the ear lol, the inner top part is inverse for some reason, just look at this

as for the brush, just use anything really, doesn't matter. but the one i used is a calligraphy shape. just make a slanted line as ur tip

[dire ember]

any tips on making better detail, better muscles, shading, really everywhere or perspective because i tried to make him facing slightly to the right but i failed idk how i need help

[somber ivy]

What’s a calligraphy shape 😭🙏🙏

[storm peak]

wtf

its good tho

[unborn saffron]

so the arms at the hips is how you would explain it (or waist)

[upper kindle]

Let me help you again

[upper kindle]

So heres a sketch that should help you

[grizzled cobalt]

yea thats what im talking about

[elder comet]

@onyx night you're host now of the game can u press next

[grizzled cobalt]

#💬│general exists for this. this channel is for helping with art

[elder comet]

Sorry couldn’t find the general channel 😅

[dire ember]

ty that helps but i meant something like this lol sorry i’m bad at explaining

[upper kindle]

O ok i see

[upper kindle]

So like the bodie turned right and the head straight

[dire ember]

idk it’s kinda just in that stance like turned to the right idk how to explain

[grizzled cobalt]

any tips to improve smear frame?

[dire ember]

pretty good but thats not really a smear frame

[dire ember]

i still cant even draw that if i dont have the picture directly up and copying from it i cant draw muscles without it looking bad bro

[upper kindle]

Instead of copying try drawing the volumes first

[upper kindle]

And its ok to use ref

[dire ember]

whats a volume + its not a reference cuz im just straight up copying it

[upper kindle]

Heres an exemple of an arm divided into his basic volumes this only my version theres tones of ways to represent volumes

[upper kindle]

Try and practice volumes it will help you understand the reference without having to copy .I practice a lot volumes (im not perfect i still need to learn) and heres what i can do now (ps it doesnt do evething but it helps a lot)

[upper kindle]

If you want to i can explain it to you in a deeper matter

[harsh pecan]

Any art advice trying to make it look less 2d

[dire ember]

i see.. what abuot gartic phone its timed so you wont have time for all of that

[upper kindle]

I dont do that in gartic you cant do sketch (ps now i only use volumes when i do hard pose i dont know how to draw or reference)

[upper kindle]

And mostly if i dont feel like i have the time i simplify my drawings like this (ps if i dont have time i dont do colours)

[upper kindle]

@harsh pecan yes i often draw on paper

[harsh pecan]

Nice

I have a couple of sketchbooks

[upper kindle]

Would you like to see one of my drawing

[harsh pecan]

Sure

[upper kindle]

O and you asked for tips earlier do you still need any or

[dire ember]

how would i draw on gartic then

[upper kindle]

What fo you mean

[upper kindle]

I guess you should try to do less line posible with the smal brush than go over with lower opacity colors

[harsh pecan]

Yes please

[upper kindle]

Let me a couple minutes

[harsh pecan]

Sure

[upper kindle]

All could see that maybe could of been done better are the 1 hand and the head but its overall good

[harsh pecan]

Which hand

The hand snake front one or back one

[upper kindle]

The one on the head

[dire ember]

i meant like if i don’t do volumes and stuff how would i draw that in the time limit

[grizzled cobalt]

In animation, a smear frame is a frame used to simulate motion blur. Smear frames are used in between key frames.[1] This animation technique has been used since the 1940s.[1] Smear frames are used to stylistically visualize fast movement along a path of motion.

so that's kinda a smear frame

but it doesnt work very well, does it?

if you dont understand what im talking about, this frame. this is supposed to be a smear frame, but it just doesnt work well

[runic wind]

Me when

[dire ember]

yea but a smear frame is more like maybe if someone’s head is moving their head is all deformed but it fits, or a spinning maybe stuff like that but that’s just kinda motion blur sorta smear imo

[olive swallow]

Any constructive feedback on this?

(I know the hands whack)

[mortal hull]

the hands, the legs, and the shoulders could use improvement. they are a bit too stiff.

[open pecan]

@manic hearth HELP ICE IS RACIST

[sacred coyote]

adviсe?

[red wigeon]

Maybe some more texture on the bottom and middle part of the dress i think its called a bodice idk

[tight wren]

anatomically correct

[upper kindle]

Ps this his not his drawing just so you know this his made by a dude called angle 8 days ago who helped him in the same channel i know it i was there

[dire ember]

yeah

[sour viper]

WHY ARE ALL THE KEYCHAINS 5$

[copper viper]

an interpretation for a clockwork orange, ive been practicing, any advice still?

p.s the arms are supposed to look like that

[upper kindle]

I think if you wanna work on something maybe remake the jaw (im just sayin it good but i know you can do better)

[runic wind]

i agree with toast in reworking the jaw, but it can also be said about the teeth they're a bit too similar and small

[tight chasm]

would anyone have any tips for drawing chibi characters? I dont know how in the world to draw them- this is my best attempt

if anyone needs a reference of the full character i can post a reference in the my art channel-

[raw grove]

for drawing chibi characters, i recommend using circles as an base of the character's head, it will help to make it easier. and for the body, try making it smaller

i need advices for drawing wings, i'm struggling with drawing wings

[tight chasm]

thank you

[pure frost]

for wings, try drawing them based off of triangles? ik it probably doesn't make sense but make a triangle for the base and then you can kinda fold or manipulate the shape until it looks right.

[copper viper]

i agree

it is starting to look weird after a while

[hollow kernel]

Any advice? Work in progress btw!!

[upper kindle]

Yo guys im working on my vtuber model and i wanted to know what you guys are thinking about the design (his there something you think i should change ?)(ps the face design will be changed)

[buoyant urchin]

Interesting

I dunno tho

[grizzled cobalt]

any advice?

[limber marsh]

I would really suggest using an animation software. Tons of free ones, mobile and pc.
Firstly, water droplets don't work like this, or mine. Realistically, they just spread into really thin droplets. For the sake of understanding physics, they're cartoon-ier.

Don't make the water flatten into the ground. Since it's falling at high velocity, it tends to bounce. You can try splitting the animation into three frames. The initial drop, the impact and the split.

but how would you apply it in gartic phone? skilled animators tend to have everything planned out. But that comes with constant practice. So it becomes muscle memory to you. here's the animation too

[grizzled cobalt]

thanks for the tips! 👍

[full light]

I wanna send my art but sadly the image button doesnt work 4 me☹️☹️

[limber marsh]

go into #🎟│upload-guidelines and read them carefully

[harsh acorn]

Tyty omgg

Guys any advice?

[dire ember]

how do i draw a cat

[grizzled cobalt]

imo, the background is lacking detail
try adding more colors to the water - lighter color, darker color

[hollow thunder]

I sent you a video of my recommendation

[teal cairn]

how to join

[wheat kindle]

Is krita good for animating

[rugged birch]

Does this look weird?

[grizzled cobalt]

hmm did you use a reference image or no?

[rugged birch]

No that’s why I think it looks weird

[grizzled cobalt]

oh

[rugged birch]

All of the folds and shading o honestly pulled out of my butt

[grizzled cobalt]

whats this supposed to be

[rugged birch]

Exactly

[grizzled cobalt]

oh

drawings like this express your imagination so its fine if it looks weird

thats my thought 😅

[rugged birch]

Thank you 🙏

[grizzled cobalt]

does this look any better?

[limber marsh]

the physics now resembles a ceramic vase. it's too solid. try to make each individual droplet stretch too. water likes to stick together into blobs and splashes.

good on the timing, maybe make the drop faster.
and importantly, when it splits, it's like another bounce. make it so that they slow down at the height before they go down.

[true goblet]

no

[grizzled cobalt]

you think i asked you?

[noble elk]

i was trying to make a cat oc, but i suck at drawing cats. so i made this quick sketch to see my "cat drawing" skills
any tips? maybe on how to make it look fluffier?

[hardy quest]

[boreal schooner]

Possibly add fluff like effects to the body and tail, also enhance the fluffiness of the ears inside too, thats how i atleast do it

[true goblet]

no
