pro tip:
Dont draw people its very hard to make it look good, draw dinosaurs and monsters, to like everyone I know its much more fun and easier to do

[exotic flame]

Thank you Tomato I'll make sure to do that 🙂

[lilac sundial]

alright

[teal cairn]

Is fighter jet good enough

[lilac sundial]

yes

military vehicles go hard

Me personally I love drawing a godd M1 Abrams or M2 Bradley

[teal cairn]

Hell yeah I just finished a really good one

I love drawing fighter jets, mainly the F-15

[lilac sundial]

awesome

[peak violet]

what should i put in blank space

also any general tips i forgot how to draw thank you (:

[undone belfry]

first off whats that on the right just so i can get an idea?

[bold reef]

someone pointing a gun

[lavish bone]

You should put in me... making my way downtown, walking fast, faces past and im home bound!!

You could put in a gigantic robo-godzilla

[peak violet]

Sorry if it's not clear... He's sitting against a wall that's covered with vines and stuff and the thing in the corner is just a broken off wall in front of him.

[undone belfry]

Abandoned city maybe, try finding tlou pictures as a reference.
Or perhaps a rainforest, making him inside a treehouse

[peak violet]

The city idea is cool, I think I might do that. Thanks! I'll be sure to hopefully show the artwork again here as long as I don't forget.

[exotic flame]

Have the blank space be a dream

[exotic flame]

Thoughts

[crisp plinth]

Did you finish it yet

[peak violet]

I've got the sketch down, but it looks bad rn

[meager quarry]

hi

[lilac sundial]

Idk donkey’s portrait looks awesome man

[barren echo]

mods are gays

[willow rune]

Idea for Nitara from MK on a AU I just started working on lol

[loud coral]

hi

[silent delta]

How would you all recommend to do linearly on procreate i can’t find. The right brush leading to never finished drawings 😕

[proud hollow]

how to make something like this look like its rotating

[left fjord]

leaving lines from the direction he turned

like this

in this picture it's not spinning, it's blowing up, but it's the same technique

[pastel plaza]

Can I tell you something?
And that keeps me up at night

[chrome bay]

I personally find this a bit bland and I wanna know what should the background be? (It’s sleep deprived podcast btw)

[exotic flame]

maybe some color to the characters themselves and why is dude screaming?

[hoary raven]

This is insane. literally amazing

[stoic lark]

how to shading

[jovial bone]

p

[stoic lark]

very helpful

[quasi geyser]

what software

[stoic lark]

it's blender 💀

[teal cairn]

NOT using AI might improve your art skills!

[quasi geyser]

how do i stop being mid

[edgy ingot]

stop being mid

or draw a 🐟 or something

[royal sluice]

Anything wrong with the posing and anatomy? (feel free to draw over it)

[lavish bone]

You're missing 4 eyes

[runic wind]

from the looks of it the torso is a little short so it makes the abs look bigger than they need to be

[royal sluice]

ooh ok thanks

[split pollen]

hi so im trying to draw book from bfdi as a human but the problem is

she has two colors and idk how i should do the outline

i usually make the outline one dark color

[runic wind]

you could possibly make either the hair or clothes, or even both with those colors instead of the character themselves. For the hair, the part could determine a split point in the color or you could even have blue hair with green tips/ highlights

[proven trench]

maybe eyes mix of geen and blue with a green and blue shirt

[split pollen]

oop alr ty

[rose gate]

something is so wrong with this what is it i need help plz im going insane

it's def the lighting right

i dont know what to do

[left fjord]

try making the background color red

[left fjord]

because the color of the character and the background color are similar

[rose gate]

Yeah I can only have so many shades of gray with low res 😭

[brazen gate]

yeah i definitely think maybe a more vibrant red background would make it stand out more

[brazen gate]

looks amazing by the way! maybe you could add some red lighting on the character from the background and itd make it pop more?

[rose gate]

Ty

Should I only make the area around the character red or the whole background?

[brazen gate]

i feel like making it red around the character could make it look great! but honestly both could be good options. maybe the one where you make it around the character could make it pop out more and keep the gray background beyond that

[rose gate]

i tried highlighting first i think it looks better now, you think I should try a reddish background glow instead?

[brazen gate]

I think that looks great! I think the orange is a little too dim(maybe make it a bit brighter? Similar to the orange you have on the sword but a lil darker)

I think making it more of of a gradient (eg 3 colours rather than the two you have) could also make it pop more

Definitely doesn’t hurt to try out the other option too! Looks amazing though omg!!

[rose gate]

ty ty for the advice 🙏

[harsh pecan]

Can anyone help me improve my drawing I want to make Timmy (the cute monster) look a bit more malnourished and show his ribs through his skin (or have his chest open with his ribs poking out) but idk how to do it. I also want advice on how to make Timmy’s back have peices of his spine poking out but I don’t want it be traumatized by anything weird I come across if I search it up

Can anyone also help me with anything else Timmy is looking a bit bland

[harsh pecan]

No way you have a Hilda pfp too

[rose gate]

TONTU PEAK

[harsh pecan]

Y E S

And woodman too

[edgy ingot]

try making some parts of his body just like
ripped open ig

and maybe try adding some random bits of bone on the spinal column or something

[harsh pecan]

Idk how though that’s why I came here

[spice robin]

maybe look at a picture of a skeleton and see how it looks, then test on a sheet of paper how it would most likely look on the drawing?

[worldly ridge]

Tontu and Giant pfp based

[silver shale]

What can i do to mae this look better?

[proven trench]

what is it?

[woeful glen]

demogorgon (i think), maybe add some darker contrast on the skin and inside the mouth area?

[harsh pecan]

It looks like it would work better if you added a little bit of it body showing so it all looks more connected and add some shading to it mouth to make it look more 3d

[woeful shard]

How can i make this look better?

[grave glen]

hey guys how do i post in my art?

[sterile spade]

#🎟│upload-guidelines

[proven trench]

his right foot kinda just disappears behind the arm. maybe you can make it show a bit or something?

[woeful shard]

Ok

[dire elk]

Back area is a tad confusing, and the head blends in a bit. More contrast around the aread would help

[woeful shard]

Ok

[woeful shard]

How can I make this better?

[real coyote]

how can i draw with a mouse

[modern cove]

@real coyote there is a type of mouse you can buy online that you hold to the side and it's almost like holding a pen. It's call an Ergonomic mouse

I'm still busy with this drawing. Any advice on making it look like water rushing down its tentacles? Like it's rising out of the water?

[left fjord]

Hü

İs this okay?

[royal sluice]

Is there anything wrong with the posing/anatomy? (feel free to use red pen over it)

[scenic warren]

Your mind line on the belly looks a little off but otherwise looks great

[tawny stratus]

Advice on shading the hair? (also let me know if there are problems with the overall topology)

[left fjord]

ı can't see any difference

[woeful shard]

How can I make this better? (btw its a little drawing I made at school)

[tawny stratus]

it's out of context, he was joking in the vc

[dire elk]

You could place the hair a bit more on the scalp 🙂

[dire elk]

I don't think there is

[lean depot]

The neck can be a bit thinner and like rævyn said the hair can be lower down on the scalp/head. Also a little blending can help soften the texture of the blazer

[woeful shard]

Ok

[exotic flame]

Behold the banana angel any advice

[woeful shard]

Add a background

If you want

[left fjord]

If you open the bottom of the middle banana, it looks like a dress.

[silver shale]

How can i make it look... more natural

[tawny stratus]

her right leg seems off

[exotic flame]

Well here was the final product I didn’t get see where you said split the banana open whip I now regret

[hollow kernel]

The top stature seems pretty stiff, id recommend irl references and making the proportions the same size and connecting more smoothly

I did a lil trace over of which I think would look more smooth, hope this helps a bit!!

Just remember, references (especially human refs) will help!🫂

Here are two references I think will help out!!

[copper lichen]

erm what the sigma

[rose gate]

nuhwhoowaaah???

[honest escarp]

Yo

[zenith valley]

There is a website I would recommend for people studying anatomy and poses

It’s called “Line of action”

[olive swallow]

Give me ideas for more despicable abominations (gremlins)

[proven trench]

add one thats a ball of feet

[olive swallow]

spongebob disgusting fog horn sound

[scenic warren]

I feel like a bird that has a disgustingly large beak is needed

[old coral]

how would i take an animation from blender and send it here? im a little new to pc

[honest escarp]

How do I make it

..better

[fading panther]

define better

there are a lot of directions you can take this

[sterile bay]

Everyones art is soooooo good ❤️

[honest escarp]

Idk

How do I make it look more professional

[fading panther]

for starters you might want to start with a well-defined sketch

people say you shouldn't break up your sketches into shapes but it's been immensely helpful for me when i was improving

try to draw your lines carefully yet confidently, making sure there are no gaps or overlap

don't be afraid to use references, you can even paste them into whatever art program you're using and try to copy them! just don't trace, otherwise it will look weird

[honest escarp]

Oh ok ok

Thanks

[wintry jolt]

anyone knows how to use a drawing tablet on roblox properly

[glossy bison]

You mean just to use it like a normal tablet? But with the power of the computer?

Or to draw on a roblox game with it

[wintry jolt]

like i have a tablet but when i try to draw with it, the line dont really sync, example would be that i try to draw a straight line and the start would be somewhere else

[glossy bison]

Hmmm, try calibration

[royal sluice]

Anything I need to fix? (Feel free to draw over it with red)

[left fjord]

maybe you can try drawing the nose straight down

[royal sluice]

I ended up fixing a lot with her arms and hands

[merry whale]

I can give you guys a tip and it’s pink

[hoary raven]

alr we're waiting

[wary chasm]

If plates could walk (scary stuff), what can I do to improve this. Also I would like to add a shadow but I don’t know where it should go

[teal cairn]

add forks for the 2nd part of its leg

[wary chasm]

they are already spoons on one end

[brisk obsidian]

The plate looks flat so changing the perspective of it

Would make it look better

@royal sluice the big thing is the proportions like the shoulder and the boob plase ment

[royal sluice]

i sent that days ago, its been finished

[brisk obsidian]

Ahh I can't send any pics of my art

That's what I'm working on rn

I need to ink it but my pin disappeared

[unborn yew]

If you wanna play gartic join VC1

[timid edge]

Ain’t no way that’s a real ad💀

[lilac linden]

Uhm i cant sent my art here??

[weary summit]

What do i do with the mouth to make it appear better?

[proven trench]

if he is going for a blank expression (like yuji's stare from jjk), make it curv down slightly

[weary summit]

Like this?

Seems a bit better yh

But feels a bit too slanted lol, 1 sec

Thank you, i feel it looks much better now!

Not really blank anymore but it looks better ty

[lilac linden]

Bro i cant send photos herr

Do i need a role or something

@weary summit

I was bored so i went to town with your drawing haha i hope u dont mind

[lilac linden]

Can i post it on Instagram (asking bcs i drew it without permission) if so can u give me ur @ so i can credit

[weary summit]

Whoa dog, looks great

I just started drawing recently and i hate colouring

[weary summit]

Sure

If u wanna credit me lol, but u did most the work

My insta is vanwykeduan

[lilac linden]

[honest escarp]

Omggg😭😭

[honest escarp]

Tyyy

[lilac linden]

[proven trench]

on what

[weary summit]

Lol fr, its good

[lilac linden]

FR WHAT ARE U EVEN TRYING TO IMPROVE I WISH I COULD DO PIXEL ART

[north marlin]

I’ve been learning digital recently so I’m asking for help on my early stages of drawing

[weary summit]

I think the jaw is too far back

Or the nose needs to be moved back a bit

[weary summit]

Im not a great art producer so get advice from others aswell

Just in case

[gusty oasis]

Someone tell me a fnaf character to draw sexy

[scenic warren]

The blue dude

[left fjord]

how to ı improve this

[scenic warren]

More contrast, I've seen some artists use a white outline to help the subject(s) pop out

[orchid musk]

i js started getting back into art so idk if these are to great, i used to be alright but its been a while sp tips would be great

also both of these i drew from reference on pintrest

[main token]

I can’t send pics in here for some reason

[signal fog]

Hey. You just need to read the #🎟│upload-guidelines.

[main token]

Found it

[cursive radish]

Is it good? Is there anything that I should improve (I didn't complete the body yet)

[plush kite]

I'd recommend you to not make the eyelashes thick

What do I need to improve

[bright tide]

You should use references when drawing, it helps you get the hang of the face anatomy, especially with hard expressions 😉

[plush kite]

I did shade off the original dude

I just tried to use self imaginary

Sometimes

Can you give me an eye tip where if I draw the first eye the second eye comes out worse or unfamiliar

[bright tide]

Got it, if it’s a style choice the it looks good as it is! Now it’s only a matter of knowing where you wanna get with your art

[bright tide]

AHAHAHA dude this is like artists obsession

No one knows how to draw the second eye properly

[plush kite]

Lol

[bright tide]

That’s why I draw very cartoony eyes, I can get crazy with them and get away with the second eye thing

[scenic warren]

ive been trying to get consistent eyes for a while, try and simplify them into more geometric shapes like square or triangle, circles are too vague to get a consistent 2nd eye

[north marlin]

I tried drawing in notes, does this need improvement?

The art style is supposed to look unblended

[abstract quail]

Trying to draw a bipedal cat without making it look like a furry. I think the eyes are too human, and the porportions feel off. Any suggestions?(its got them rizzler eyes, but I'm not sure how to draw them both realistically and expressive at the same time)

[lilac linden]

Somethings wrong and idk what

[final meadow]

i feel like its the eyes, idk

maybe they should be bigger?

and the neck feels long to me, but someone else should verify the proportions

[signal fog]

I think it's the position of the eyes

[plain snow]

how can i post a image on this channel?

[final meadow]

#🎟│upload-guidelines

[plain snow]

Many thank

[plain snow]

so id wanted to draw more like this guy

anyone knows how i could create that effect?

[slow kernel]

can someone help me with shading

tysm :D

[stiff elm]

enhance the jawline definitely first

[slow kernel]

I did this but it still looks off :(

ty though

[median halo]

referring to cats from ghibli may help? such as 'the cat returns' or the cat bus character from 'my neighbour totoro'

[abstract quail]

Did some lazy and quick(finals rn)

[slow kernel]

oh ty! this looks a lot better, good luck on your finals :D

[chrome matrix]

if you mean traditional id try gouache for background and go over it with posca or similar paint markers

just an idea

maybe some fine tip opaque black:- I’d recommend micron or competing brands but make sure your substrate is like rly dry or you’ll kill them

[plain snow]

im fairly certain this drawing was made digitally so im really interested on how the artist created that specific effect for the "paper"

[abstract quail]

I think I did ok, crunched for like 32 hours straight and then slept for 20 or so.

[grizzled cobalt]

any tips on the lightning?

[plain snow]

I think ye should make it more yellow and make it with a softer brush so it will look like its glowing

[slow kernel]

aw that sounds exhausting, make sure to care for yourself!

[abstract quail]

It's cool, over now. Thanks for the kind words (:

[slow kernel]

np, have a wonderful day :D

[olive swallow]

Help me draw hands 😭 also leg positioning, and basically anything you see wrong

[olive swallow]

You could try overlaying textures?

[abstract quail]

I would practice perspective(look up perspective practice/learning videos) and also anatomy(fully body), and use references. Here is a sketchover I did where I tried to make it more 3d/improve anatomy.

This is a more dynamic pose, in my opinion.

[olive swallow]

Nice thanks I’ll try do that

[elder veldt]

I dont like it but I cant point and say THAT IS WHAT IS wrong is it just genral lak of fundimintals or ?

[abstract quail]

I think linework, shapes, and values could use some work.

Always a good idea to practice fundementals!

[scenic warren]

when i shade w/pencil i either only shade one way or make the different patches very defined on spots where i think it should change, otherwise it can come up messy

[echo rover]

i need advice on how to render this, i want it to have the same rendering style, or at least similar to rossdraws. i mainly need advice on how to make it lineless as i have no clue how to get rid of the lines and make it look good

[rancid pecan]

make more gay

[echo rover]

tysm! it's actually working#

next step is making the gay shadows, gay lighting, and gay background

[echo rover]

i have no idea how to make the shading better

[devout flax]

maybe add more overlay shadows

10 minute drawing on my phone- ive never drawn on my phone before- any tips

i usually draw on an ipad

[devout flax]

you have a lot of good lifhting but yoy have to put more midtone shadows. like under the neck etc where the light wouldnt reach

[echo rover]

ah ok that makes sense ty!

[echo rover]

woa that looks great!

[devout flax]

lol thanks. my fingers are too big to really draw well on such a small screen xD

[hexed relic]

the shirt collar (especially on the right) is confusing me
the connection of neck and shoulder feels a bit off (on either side dunno which / depends what look you want, the left is small or the right is big)

and a weird tangent is caused by those here

[gusty oasis]

Some please tell me how to improve (and also tell me which bottom is best)

[sonic plover]

i like the second one! and your style reminds me of danganronpa (i love it lol) as for improving i have no tips sorry

[devout flax]

lol ill fix it. thabks 🙂

[exotic flame]

thoughts or ideas?

[queen hemlock]

If i stare at it long enough, I know it'll blink.

[agile igloo]

[echo rover]

i just friggin deranked to iron 1 i've hit rock bottom

[teal cairn]

skill issue

[echo rover]

fr

[devout flax]

that looks awesome!

[devout flax]

my only advice is the way shes holding the cig is kinda weird. its a little curvy, snd shed probs be holding it the otherway so she didnt have to flip it around to smoke lol

[zenith rose]

oof yeah ur right lol

the cigarette looks kidna limp too

[devout flax]

lol otherwise it looks amazing!

[zenith rose]

oh thakns 👍

[reef carbon]

You could also use your own hands as reference

Hold them in the posision that you wanna draw that a pic and boom

Its gonna help tons

[teal cairn]

It looks good I just feel like the shading is a bit mono in like basic areas idk if the hands are supposed to have shade or not just a little thing I can’t draw good tho lol

[reef carbon]

Everyone here is drawing online i dont do that much anymore but here is my art

Hurt my feelings please

[zenith rose]

Ahhh kk lol, that sounds good. Hands are kinda rough

I might try that bext time

[zenith rose]

hrmmm, i think i was going for like hand definition, but i think the shadows ain't too accurate lol liek especially for the fingers, thanks for the cirt tho 🙂, yeah might have to consider that nextr time lol

[teal cairn]

Yeah and if there is a shadow over it just make it darker next time anyways imma play gartic phone in a bit

[safe sparrow]

heelp

[devout flax]

i like the colors maybe work on proportions a little

especially in the arm and neck to face. just use a reference to really nail the structure

[devout flax]

im not really an artist but for facial proportions going off of the way their head is turned the eyes would he where the blue is

i like the angle the face was at tho but if keep it like that, the neck and top of head would change more

this is a better guide for a low angle

the other on i put was a little straight on. also again IM NOT AN ARTIST LOL

so other people feel free to roast my advice too xD

[torn arrow]

got any tips for this?

[ivory violet]

May I ask what app you’re using to create digital art? :))

Because idk if the shades on your character are from a mirror or sunlight

But using the blending modes might be helpful

I don’t usually use blendings modes that often (cuz I don’t colour that much 😭) but they make your art look better effortlessly

For example

I can’t send photos 😭 but anyways, I went to ibispaint and used the colour FF694F, into an “add” blending mode layer (60% opacity) then I added some strokes to imitate sunlight on the hair

And I suggest searching up “line weight” on google, it made my art looked better ever since I found out about it. You just basically make your lineart on shadow parts thicker and make your line on lighter parts thinner.

Hope that helps!! ^^

[tender loom]

this is some good advice, but people usually forget the head width is bigger than you’d expect

[devout flax]

sure

[torn arrow]

procreate, the original one

[torn arrow]

its sunlight lol-

[grizzled cobalt]

any advice

[tender loom]

well, it’s hard to give advice on these types of things because it’s primarily a style, and you aced the style look

[teal cairn]

Practice makes perfect and I can say you have def practiced

As Gordon Ramsey says there is always someone better but that doesn’t mean you can’t surpass them

[jovial sleet]

I wanna upload a picture but it doesn't allow me to help (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ🆘

[devout flax]

you have to accept terms and conditions

[devout flax]

^

[jovial sleet]

Ohh from where (•_• ?)

I think I did already but I just can't upload pics

[grizzled cobalt]

Go to #🎟│upload-guidelines and accept the guidelines, im pretty sure then you can upload pictures

[elder veldt]

Here's what I noticed personally her eyes are a little too big and I made her a little less lanky then I should have

Please critique me

[devout flax]

her eyes are a little close together and her neck blends into the rest of her body really weird

also the angle of the nose wouldnt be as upturned because its not a low angle

[upbeat lodge]

its a bit messy but Ive been trying to practice drawing poses and kinda hit a wall on what i could improve on and what i did wrong. Its a rough sketch but i still think it looks good especially not having a whole lot of experience in drawing so i was just texting to maybe get some feedback.

[elder veldt]

@upbeat lodge I kind of suck but suggestions I've heard other places are that the body is never perfectly in line with the camera so having some sort of turn in the Torso would make it look more natural also personally to me the shoulder looks too big and I love the way your jawline and neck created form

[upbeat lodge]

thanks! i tried to make the shoulders pop a little to give it a bit of foreshadow but i appreciate it😁 @elder veldt

[tender loom]

shoulder isn’t too big, it’s just that it’s too high

[elder veldt]

Ok sorry

[devout flax]

i tried to draw over some things just for a rough guide line- my right hand was occupied so i did my best to draw with my freaking left hand 💀💀- but, i adjusted some proportions and marked them with blue, showing distance etc. hope this helps! your drawing looks great :D))

my style is still pretty cartoony and that accidentally comes through in this but its ✨only✨ for reference. especially since im not much of an artist lol.

hope it helps though! love your og drawing :)))

also id like to point out that i like your face better i was just trying to adjust for proportions 💖

[steady swan]

Do you have a reference or something you‘re aiming for in your art?

[elder veldt]

Lol i hate the face heres my reff lol it was just practice imma be honist i ran out of room and could not put full hand and rushed the face a bit looking back at it

I needed to make her longer to

[elder veldt]

Also thx for the idea to go thro it and fix som porporshans

[grizzled cobalt]

yep, its almost finished tho

[grizzled cobalt]

finished! any criticism?

[elder veldt]

@grizzled cobalt it is so amazing and I don't think I could make anything as good as it my only criticism is that the light fire I didn't even notice it was there until I zoomed into it because it doesn't stand out from the background but everything else is amazing I love the contrast and would love to hear about the story of these two

[grizzled cobalt]

tysm ^^ and yeah i know the fire blends in the background but i wasnt sure what to do about it 😅 also i havent really made a backstory about them but they are brothers :)

[steady swan]

Its very styleized but i find that its a lot of circles and curves, i think you should think more about overall shapes

The second one is very well done and has a lot of shape
But the second one isnt thats why i think you shpuld invest more in shapes to make it more noticable and memorable

It wont let me add pictures but i have some @grizzled cobalt

Also some shading to fit your style do color blocking kinda like your fire, plus remember fire is a light source which means around the fire will be the brightest area you can add darker colors around the drawing
Doesnt mean it has to be darker as in goung to back but perhaps a kind of orange or even leaning to red

I love you piece so much though! Its sososososo cute 🤭❤️

[hoary cipher]

Hi, I just started drawing 1 week ago and I'm wondering what the best way to improve is?

[elder veldt]

Practice the fundmintals

[steady swan]

Yes, learn shapes and draw what you see
Consisteny is key if you want to get better faster

[devout flax]

lol i drew my friend. i cant render tho- someone help lol.
to be fair this was literally around 15 minutes to draw- so for that time- what can i do lol

[grizzled cobalt]

Yep i intended to not add lighting from fire as it is just a background decor ^^ thank you

[steady swan]

Thats alright but you should check out more contrast coloring for future reference c:

@grizzled cobalt

[steady swan]

You did very well only think i can say is neater line work and perhaps wrinkles in the clothing? Its already super good as is though good job (^^) proud of you

But rendering is hard i cant help much with that, what i do is do both blending and hard color shading

@grizzled cobalt I CAN SEND PICTURES NOW SO I CAN SHOW

1st sillowett (idk how spell)
Its very bland theres not much to it
BUT it also has very good coloring 😼

But then its the oposite for the second one
Bad coloring and good sihlouette

Theres a pic of the first if it had more triangles

How do I get art perms

[grizzled cobalt]

#🎟│upload-guidelines accept the guidelines

[hoary cipher]

Oh thanks

I drew this alien guy. I started drawing around 1 and a half weeks ago. Idk how to color, shade, or draw from a certain perspective so all his armor plates are facing me. Anyways uh yeah I just wanted to share this guy

[abstract shuttle]

okay very cool guy I luv it and if you wanna do perspective, you can just draw one side a bit smaller so it will look better -or at least that's how I do it (life changing fact ik).
and have fun with drawing :]

[devout flax]

what do i bruv he doesnt look anything like the reference pic lol. also i cant render

[steady swan]

You‘re welcome c:

[steady swan]

Dont worry about color and shading just yet, right now i say focus on 3d shapes

Look at cubes and circles at home and draw them. Or even just look at blocky 3d robots online and draw them from reference

You‘re still learning so feel free to make a charaxter sheet. Remember it doesnt have to look perfect so dont delete them so you can see your progression (^^)

[hoary cipher]

Thanks for the advice 😄

[steady swan]

You‘re welcome c:

tweaked

[jovial trench]

Hum, I’m trying this new artsyle and I would like some tips if you all could spare some

The first one is my usual style. I want to try to add more texture and colors so I tried this new style in a Discord WB.

Just some rendered sketches to get the feel of the color placement

Does anyone know how to get better at lighting placement?

I feel as if the lighting isn’t quite realistic in terms of where the shadows are

[rapid vortex]

How do i get better in anatomy

[grizzled cobalt]

any tips on the background

[scenic warren]

Nah frfr watch any basic anatomy vid then practice those steps on characters from ur fav anime or show or comic, it's gonna suck at 1st but you will get better

[rapid vortex]

Thanks you seem genuine

[upper kindle]

Hey yo you guys probably dont know me but i use to help around in the beginning of the year i dont got a lot of things to do rn so i might check this chanel more often i study a variety of things so ill try to give a hand if you need it just saying

[hoary cipher]

[zenith rose]

whoop sorry for posting my iamge in this channel 😭

[abstract shore]

dd

[steady swan]

Practic stick figures, than shapes, then put them together

Use that to then recreate reference images as those figures

[rapid vortex]

Tysm gunna use that

[rapid vortex]

Guys how do i get better in different perspectives

[signal fog]

well I'm not an artist but I know that you can use reference images for practice, so maybe give that a try

[peak violet]

help me make this not suck pls (i cant draw clothes or people ): )

[rapid vortex]

HOW DO I GET RID OF THIS

Nvm i figured it out

[fathom bridge]

Just draw them naked

[rapid vortex]

Lmaoooo

[steady swan]

Dont smudge colors together for clothing, if anything color block. Do bit shape colors and remember gravity. If you want to see how it works hang up some of your clothes and draw it. If its lighting on clothes then use your flashlight in a dark place on your clothes

[steady swan]

You‘re very welcome ❤️

[peak violet]

Good tip thx

[iron nebula]

Just get good

[peak violet]

👍didn't think about that

[iron nebula]

how do i send my art into here?

[old coral]

ty

i canr draw well with a mouse

and i drew the first frame not well compared to how i drew the rest i think

[steady swan]

No that super good just make sure you render it right

[broken abyss]

Every time I get to the shading bit, that's when my mind goes offline and I don't know how to proceed. This is the second time.

I had a drawing I started back in October, but is now only sitting in my gallery because I don't know how to apply shading and lighting for the life of me.

[grizzled cobalt]

Where's the light coming from? It's important to know where is the light source when you are shading. If there is none, there will be no light spots except from the glowing eyes and the flame (or how you call this thing)at the bottom. I might try to send an improved version, but don't count on me- I am myself not a pro artist 😅

Also nice art :)

[broken abyss]

There are only three light sources, them being the eyes, the body and the flame. Well, four if you count the stars in the background (I hid them for this png), but the light they provide is more on the transparent side of things.

Btw thanks! ^^

hi guys bro

[hazy stag]

could be bc of the round ends maybe make it a bit blocky? as most of the guns have more sharper ends idk if im explaining myself

[snow stag]

its 1:34 AM and i didnt feel like trying and im kinda high so like prob wont remember this

but any tips on improving solo animation?

[steady swan]

Start with Simple designs (animations)
Then work towards more defined ones.
What i liked to do was look at gifs for references when i was starting then try them out and work my way onto makinh my own

[manic jacinth]

hi

anyone want to paly

[viral root]

Wrong channel.. go to #💬│general

[teal cairn]

Bro does anyone know how to do impact frames I’m so bad at it 😭😭

[true crystal]

p

[cedar lagoon]

idk how to shade hair pls help😭

[pine crane]

I need some tips on animating better and animating/ drawing people. Here is an animation I made today. Any tips on how to improve it?

[steady swan]

What i like to do is shade in chunks then individually render them. Thats why its nixe to make hair as bananas

[steady swan]

It practically stays the same the only thing moving is the hand, it needs more overall motion usually for a more impactful punch a person steps with their punch and throws themself a bit more forward kinda like what you did with the head exceot the whole body

[pine crane]

Ok

[pine crane]

Improvement?

.

[umbral plover]

While was bored, tried to draw a burger with a main point of using different tones to create more realistic image. What can I also do to improve this skill. And what can I do to improve my drawings on IPad. (I draw on IPad Pro 2022 with fake Apple Pencil and glass protection on it, however I think about removing the glass)

[rapid geyser]

How can i draw shadows well

[steady swan]

Its not just about different tones but creating textured, i also reccomend perspective on the cheese if you‘re aiming for realism. BUT I LOVE THIS AS IS BECAUSE IT REMINDED ME OF A ROBLOX BURGER

[mighty sierra]

contact shadows!! cast shadows!! very important for making a 3d object feel real

[grizzled cobalt]

i want to give this little lineart more personality and "epicness", any advice?
also please advice for the chainsaw because its the first time i drew a chainsaw

[cold canyon]

the cheese looks a bit- stiff
relax the cheese and maybe make it melt a bit as well would be nice
the cheese needs to go to the spa and relax

[cold canyon]

personally would recommend emphasizing one light source out of the 3 and weaken the other two sources because it is hard to work with and having a main light source works better for the overall structure

[broken abyss]

Perhaps, considering that the flame underneath does seem to be the brightest source.

[trim verge]

freaky

[steady swan]

IM SO PROUD OF YOU

SORRY I DIDNT REALIZE I PASSED IT LADT TIME BUT ITS SO GOOD

[steady swan]

Okay but now add your black flash to incorporate impact frames with another color!

Heres what i mean (this was posted in #🎥│gartic-animations )

Its keeping the same animation but adding impact with the color

[steady swan]

This id awesome, but it could use some variety in the line art. For example fabric the way it falls to the bottom should make it heavier.

For example this peice by @kami (posted in #🎨│my-art )

The line quality in the hair vs the hands
And the heaviness of the dress
It helps create a more visually appealing peice

—!!
For all those who dont already, go appreciate and learn from all of our amazing artists in the other art channels
—!!

[pine crane]

Impact frames, the thing I can do well

[steady swan]

YAY! You got this!

[pine crane]

Yes I shall try tonight

Note that I am doing this all on mobile. Mobile sucks.

[grizzled cobalt]

Thank you for the advice!

[steady swan]

Well you‘re doing great!

[steady swan]

You‘re welcome! Keep up the great work

[umbral plover]

Hi @steady swan , this time I tried Spider Man and I think it looks okay even though I’m a total noob at art. What should I do next time to improve my drawings?

And yes, I didn’t try to draw realism, just cartoon one

[steady swan]

THATS VERY GOOD!! I love your spiderman! ❤️
But i think you could change the colors a bit, your colors are very saturated. You could put a clipping mask layer and put a desaturated ref and blue. With that you could do the shading with purple

I also reccomend learning from other artists

[umbral plover]

Thank you so much for your responses, they really help me ❤️

Just to clarify, what is “desaturated ref”? (English isn’t my first language)

[steady swan]

Desaturating a color

[steady swan]

You‘re welcome 🙏❤️
Im happy to help C:

[umbral plover]

This time I tried to show the depth and the light, I also used ur advice about the exposure. Does it look better this time? @steady swan

[steady swan]

THATS SO GOOD

😱!!

IM SO PROUD OF YOU

It does look better! (^^) @umbral plover

[delicate star]

Gang what lighting

[steady swan]

Light from above

The holy light of god

[delicate star]

I see

[pale kernel]

This is so dope! I love bungo stray dogs ❤️

[delicate star]

Ooh thank you!!

[pine crane]

Improved?

[pine crane]

Is the new one fine to?

[grizzled cobalt]

looks good, but i'd recommend reducing the slicing animation by 1 frame. let me know if it helps!

[pine crane]

You mean like make it wait another frame before the slice?

[steady swan]

Very good very good! But you‘re putting too much all over. You have to do its small then slowly increase to make the punch more impactful

[steady swan]

I actually think this one is good as is

[azure meadow]

this is amazing

[azure meadow]

i recommend making a pause between when he raises his arms to throw the slices, and the character actually getting sliced

it will make it more dramatic/impactful

in my opinion ofc

[past cargo]

please help with some tips on coloring!!! and general whatevrr

[agile igloo]

im gonna be nit picky since its pretty good but its hard to see where exactly the lights coming from because the shading is so unorgnaized in a sense.
so if you have the shadow on the left side of the nose but not on the left side of both hands it just makes it look a bit strange... to really help with seeing if your shading or colors look right always put it in greyscale or squint your eyes to see how it blends and complements other parts of the drawing

also the shadow here makes the nose look sort of wonky

i would just add more shadow to the side of the nose

[past cargo]

oh yeah!

thank you so much

[agile igloo]

of course ❤️

[weary lintel]

the line art IS great but it is lacking a lot of shadows i would add some more shadows on the left side on the face and on the nose

[past cargo]

thanks!!!!!!!!

[pine crane]

There is. It's 10 frames

[steady swan]

Shading on the hair is differebt from the face and hands making it look wrong, also the face needs more overall lighting and color it looks kinda gray and chalky, and finally the hand on left side please help the fingers. I love your style though and the detail you put into the hair, keep up the good work!

[pine crane]

I tried to do the world cutting slash.

[steady swan]

THATS SO AWESOME 🤭

You‘re getting too good 🥲❤️

[grizzled cobalt]

This is really good!! But I recommend making animations in an actual animation software instead of gartic phone. Try Flipaclip for start

[azure meadow]

Amazing and, accurate 😭

[spare owl]

Bro did so many leg days he refuses to fall over w em

[azure meadow]

It's a.. well, it is accurate to something I can't spoil 😭

[spare owl]

Oh yeah. Is it a JJK ref?

[azure meadow]

Yesss sir

a sad one

[spare owl]

Ah I see the vision now

I didn't see the ep

[azure meadow]

Oh its a manga one

not actually out yet

[spare owl]

Gojo? Or na?

[azure meadow]

Yes

[spare owl]

I thought it's out

Cuz the internet done did its job to spoil it for me

[azure meadow]

Nope, don't think its coming out anytime soon actually

[spare owl]

Ah ight

[azure meadow]

Ye tbf, alot of people got spoiled of it

[spare owl]

The fandom went insane after that. Goofy videos of Gojo with comments like "he ain't the same anymore"

[azure meadow]

Yea lol

Eh tbh idk about the same anymore thing, but they did him dirty 😭

[pine crane]

What is flipaclip

[devout flax]

its a free animation software with ads. you can buy premium for no ads etc- its not a very good one. its mostly for beginners- but i would recommend it because its free

[pine crane]

Ok

[pine crane]

I tried flipaclip

[pine crane]

So I made another animation but I don't know if I'm allowed to put it in gartic animations. It looks cool too

It's 3 seconds long

Also if you notice the ripple I think I did good on that

[austere raven]

Not sure if itll help but maybe u can change the speed

[pine crane]

I tried. It looked best at this no matter what I did

[austere raven]

Alright basically i meant on the frames which looks slow or fast and try to adjust n voila

[azure meadow]

Yea, you cold try duplicating some frames

Basically to make it look slow at some parts only, not overall.

[pine crane]

Any advice on this?

[azure meadow]

its kinda hard to tell whats going on, but i deduced that its gojo flying, charging up a hollow purple and shot it at someone else?

some tips if you wanna do them:
1- make him fly horizontally, sort of like floating upwards
2- add some effects like dust or something going downwards, so that the viewer can tell he is flying
3- I think it would be better if the hole at the end had the same color as the background, also a blood-splatter/explosive effect

[pine crane]

This is a bad dismantle 😦

Also piercing blood

[grizzled cobalt]

looks not bad! you're learning pretty fast in my eyes

[umbral plover]

@steady swan yayy, I bought a new one and also I finally downloaded Procreate

[steady swan]

YES I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE FIRST THING YOU MAKE

IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU

[steady swan]

Im so prouf of you, you‘re doing amazinh

[umbral plover]

Honestly all this is going kinda wrong, cuz my brushes and everything does work well, and also sensitivity (like how hard you press) doesn’t work

And the problem is the idk why😭😭😭🤷

Btw I got my passport today

[steady swan]

Have you checked the settings?

[steady swan]

YAYAYA WHERE ARE YOU GONNA GO

[umbral plover]

Yes I have

And eve the procreate ones

I really dunno know what to do 😭😭😭

[steady swan]

Im unsure how to help :c

[pine crane]

Kamehameha. I tried doing something other than jujutsu Kaisen

I've tried the tips I was sent one day and I couldn't get it right

[steady swan]

So.
Much.
Practice.

It takes a while but if you push through, it’s worth it

Like this dum hand that took me 10 minutes

[austere raven]

I really want advice for this one

Feel like somethings wrong

[molten heath]

Try looking around YouTube to see animation tips normally it helps

[umbral plover]

What brush do u use? I really,y like it 😍

[austere raven]

Yeah, i used references from youtube but im still not around their level
So im js asking u guys since yall r amazing at giving tips

Or if not then thats still ok

[steady swan]

Just regular hard brush at 4 and i dont put a lot of presure

[steady swan]

Its very well done but you could add the arm to make it look more full or use onion skin and make your lines neater
Keep up the good work! (^^)

[steady swan]

Also since half of it is blocked im confused if its being handed to or if its being catched because depending on it would stop immedietly because the bottle is kinda slidinh on the hand to fix this i‘d say make it known where the water drop is or add to the surroundings or have some of the bottle coming from beneath the hand

[umbral plover]

I’m still not good in the interface, is there a chance taking a screenshot of this brush?🙈

[austere raven]

You can see a little bit of the bottle under the hand but ill try refining it
Thanks for the tips

[grizzled cobalt]

When the hand grabs the object, it almost instantly stops moving (unless the hand's grip is light)

Especially in a grip like that

[austere raven]

So i should make the bottle slide more?

[grizzled cobalt]

No, its the opposite. When the hand catches the bottle, the bottle stops immediately

[proven trench]

Make the grabbing have more impact and maybe exadurate the hand movement

[steady swan]

Yeah exactly

[steady swan]

Give me a minute

[umbral plover]

Okay, btw it’s been 10 min)

[steady swan]

Sorry I got caught up in something

[steady swan]

It’s in airbrush

[umbral plover]

Oh, k

Tysm

[steady swan]

You‘re welcome (^^)

[buoyant maple]

Made on gartic but wondering what should I improve

[muted quartz]

Make a eyebrow and shade the eye darker also make the eyelashes more defined(I know it’s an anime art style but I think it would help) make the lucidial caruncle bigger and make the top of the eye more round and if you want gojo to have more life in him make a white spot in the iris! You did really good especially working with the gartic paint tools! I hope this helps

[steady swan]

THATS AWESOME!!! Keep up the good work! But i‘d say include more of the eyelid and space it apart from the eyebrow. I‘d also suggest doing a bigger brush with less opacity for the eye coloring (^^)

[pine crane]

Did I cook on the quick punches?

[pine crane]

And yes it is a JoJo referance

[steady swan]

Does anyone have any tips for hair? Im not very good at it 🥲

[pine crane]

Same

[steady swan]

JOJO DUDUDUDUDUDUDUDUDU

[pine crane]

That's why I draw stick figures. Also because I cant draw them

[steady swan]

Why not try drawing them more for practice?

[pine crane]

Tried that before. But I still couldn't

[steady swan]

Its not that you can or cant, its practice its not supposed to be perfect

[pine crane]

I can't do the nose, hair, ears, or the arms, legs, feet, chest, neck, or body

Fingers (kinda) and eyes that's what I can do

[steady swan]

Its never supposed to look good

^ this used to be my art

Arts never gonna look good wheb you first start, its all with time and practice

This was also my first painting

And theres my most recent

I have art from when I was in 4th grade with me

It was actually good.

I'll show

It's not as good in the photo due to moving camera

[austere raven]

That looks better than most of my old arts wth

[austere raven]

I think if ur talking abt shading then draw lines in the hair with a bit of spacings
Then for the top part do a hard shading then go a bit softer when going a bit lower then keep the plain part in the middle, no need to shade that

Then start with hard shading from the lower too and go soft until u reach the middle

For each of the spacing

I didnt explain well did i

[steady swan]

Da (i have no clue what you daid)

[steady swan]

But its just proof that we all start off wonky, But we all get better c:

[steady swan]

OKAY THANK YOU SO MUCH! I appreciate you (^^)

[scenic sundial]

Eye patch maybe, but I can't draw 😂😂

[pine crane]

Lengthen the hair to cover the eye

[steady swan]

Hello, I want to start drawing, painting, whatever, but I don't know which program to start with.

I would be happy about any tip or program, thank you

[steady swan]

The best program is pen and pencil

:p im playing

But its always best to know traditional before any other medium

[versed lichen]

Procreate is a great software for iPad

[scenic warren]

My friend is really happy using krita

[steady swan]

I personally use clip studio paint and procreate

[west glen]

for procreate users do you guys have any downloadable brushes or any suggestions on where to download some?

[olive swallow]

Any ways I could improve this drawing particularly shading wise I don’t know if I’m being dumb but it feels off

[gusty cypress]

Probs lighting needed

[umbral plover]

I see that in some places you have smudged the drawing, but on others it’s so sharp. You need to find a balance between these two

[olive swallow]

yeah that was a mistake and i couldn't figure out how to fix it lol specifically that one tooth

[buoyant maple]

Rushed this but I'm satisfied. What could I improve??

[umbral plover]

You probably could just sharpen the whole art in the settings

[pine crane]

I do need to know. What should I improve on here

Also what should I do for my next animation?

[umbral plover]

You could do outline with dark red color, so it shows the redness of the guy

[pine crane]

Ok

Next time I draw this I will do this

[pale flax]

Do an underlying drawing first then do details on top for cleaner linework

[steady swan]

Its honestly pretty good as is

But you could always try more smooth blending?

[pine crane]

On gartic

Man i don't wanna spend another hour on this

The longest I have taken to draw something was 50+ hours. It was for my uncle and on paper. It had color and looked good. It was a human but I still can't do humans. That was the only time I could

[final meadow]

how can i improve spunchbop

i've never drawn spunchbop before so idk how his hands work

[pine crane]

This reminded me of a gartic game with my friends. Someone drew freakbob.

[final meadow]

[pine crane]

I can't send the photo seeing as it is innapropriate

This might help though

[pale flax]

Maybe just work on lighting. There should be less shadow since you have two light sources

[fossil hearth]

Anyone know how to draw straight horizontal lines

Weird question but my vertical lines are always straight and nice and my horizontal ones are uneven and wobbly even if I draw them fast

[devout flax]

take time.

[pine crane]

I will send a video of me drawing a straight libe

Line*

[devout flax]

you have the ruler on. just turn it horizontal

[pale flax]

Drawabox

Use that to learn

[fossil hearth]

i have drawn many boxes

they all just end up wobbly unless i draw them out of like 20 very small lines

[pale flax]

You have done Drawabox?

As in the website?

[fossil hearth]

oh no

i was doing on paper lolo

[pale flax]

https://drawabox. com

That's the website

[fossil hearth]

alr ty

[pale flax]

Just fix the .com part. It teaches you all the fundamentals

[pine crane]

I know it was a joke

[pine crane]

Before I start drawing this. I need some advice. What should I do to draw a good gojo doing the hollow purple. The one against toji

Also any good apps to use for drawing? On mobile

[olive swallow]

Ibis paint x

[soft sable]

Any suggestions?

[pine crane]

Any advice? I took 2 hours to draw this

Here is my reference image

I couldn't do the shading. Too many different colors

[warped arrow]

thinner lines ig

but thats crazy good

[peak bloom]

im getting freaky

[pine crane]

Yeah I'm still learning the app

I don't know how to do then thinner lines yet

Just ask anyone who has played gartic with me I am very much so a beginner

[pine crane]

I asked my friends what I should draw

They said draw a certain Austrian Painter who has a funny mustache...

Am I cooked?

[pine crane]

I finished it so whoever wants to see it DM me

[austere raven]

That is hella good

Damn but maybe blur the background a bit like the reference

[umbral plover]

You probably could blend some colors, for example the light

[grizzled cobalt]

any tips? it looks weird af to me

[devout flax]

try adding lighting. and flip your canvas to see imperfections in proportions

[grizzled cobalt]

I made it without almost no lighting on purpose. And yes, I've flipped the canvas and it looked about right to me.
Im gonna redraw this later tho

[devout flax]

id remove any tangent lines, and definitely vary line weight so its not just one thickness. that will bring a lot of energy

[grizzled cobalt]

Thanks for the tip 🙏

[devout flax]

yup 🙂

[steady swan]

I love that guy!

Hes my crush

[steady swan]

Every place uses just one color, add details in adding more defenition to him

[distant garden]

thank you!

[errant hornet]

@grizzled cobalt I don't know if you always draw like that, but your style is so cute...

[grizzled cobalt]

thank you :>

yes i mainly draw in this style

[errant hornet]

@distant garden I like your style too! It looks like one of the unique paintings.

[distant garden]

thanks i have a youtube channel if u wanan check i usually post whatever comems in my mind can be food characters lol themrLucky1 is the name 😉

'Cause I don't have much talent, but if I doodle something in the future, I will share it.

[distant garden]

well that also impressive to maybe give opinions and ideas is what give the artist confidence and im sure if u start doodling or drawing im sure u will make out just fine.

[pine crane]

I will DM you the image then

Do I get a role for this?

It's at 10 ⭐

Nvm its 15 ⭐ on gartic animations

[pine crane]

Any advice?

Here is the referance

[pine crane]

So uhhh. After 1 hour and 9 minutes I got this much done

This is barely half

I also have to do the background so I would say I might take about 3 hours total

And this is the less complex one of my two images I chose

I'mma be here for at least 8 hours doh

Dog*

[steady swan]

You‘re welcome (^^)

[steady swan]

YOU CAN GET ROLES FOR STARS?!

[pine crane]

Yeah 15 stars for animator

[pine crane]

Also did I do good on my new drawings?

[steady swan]

Add more detail in color, render your drawing

[steady swan]

Yes of course im so proud of you! (^^)

But your reference if from an animation so its not supposed to be best quality so you remaking it you can add more quality through rendering

[steady swan]

Thats good! Make sure you‘re learning from it c:

[pine crane]

Here is the finished sukuna

This is the halfway point

Why Turkish

Bir çevirmen kullanırken haklı olduğumdan emin olmalıydım

[lofty basalt]

is there a way to use multiple different brushes on gartic??

to makew more detailed drawings?

[steady swan]

Sadly no, theres only different sizes and opacities

But you can still do a lot with the little you get! 😼

[pine crane]

Guys I'm on the 2nd half now

I used the blur tool for the first time

It's hard

[final meadow]

bro thats amazing

[pine crane]

Thanks

The finished product finna hit different

Here is the reference

[pine crane]

Did I cook?

6 hours and 32 minutes in total

[pine crane]

Finally my war is over

[pine crane]

Not even gonna lie Gojo's hair could be better

Too many colors tho

[devout flax]

did you do a color by number thing and just trace and select colors?

[pine crane]

Neither

I only traced the box that the manga panel was on

[devout flax]

oh no thats okay i used to do it too dont be ashamed. i just overlayed them and its the exact same strokes

[pine crane]

Tf you mean same strokes

I look at the panel and measure useing tools

Then I draw

[devout flax]

dude its okay xD we all do things like that.

[pine crane]

I'm being serious tho

Key moments. Do you see an image in the back?

Also Im on mobile

[devout flax]

its not a thing to be ashamed of people trace all the time to begin.

[pine crane]

You really can't accept that I'm not tracing can you

[devout flax]

these are the reference and your drawing overlayed woth lowered opacity. its the exact same. im not trying to out you man.

its okay you dont have to get so defensive its okay to trace as long as you sont day you drew it on your own

i used to do the same type of thing all the time it was dun and relaxing so i get it!

wow i cant type well lol you get what i mean

[pine crane]

It's not fully exact

[devout flax]

its okay man. you dont have to defend yourseld

[pine crane]

Also told you already I use measuring tools

The only tracing was the manga panel

So that I could get the measurements done well

[devout flax]

im not going to bother you anymore 😭 all i asked was a question because it reminded me of when i started digital art a year ago i would take an image and trace and color like a coloring book. it was fun. i wasnt trying to out you or anything but you got so defensive. i feel kinda bad. i didnt mean to make you defensive. so that’s my bad. people always think tracing is a bad thing but it actually helped me grow so much in art. you just have to remember not to claim the art as FULLY your own. even if you did adjust some things :)))

paragraph moment xD bahah

i do kinda feel bad tho like- so sorry man

this was when i started digital art last year. i would take an image that a friend would give me and then trace and color pick. it was SUPER fun. it was like making your own coloring book. i liked doing it a lot.

now a year later it helped me to get proportions correct and learn how to draw (Collab with artist- mines the one outside the bubble) on my own :)))

and btw man it still look absolutely sick so keep up the great work :))) ive REALLY enjoyed seeing the animations you’ve posted. theyre so awesome!!!

[pine crane]

Any tips? I'm not coloring this one in. I have done enough of that today

[flint oak]

Line weight

[steady swan]

NO I WOULD TOO BECAUSE I LOVE TRADITIONAL MANGA ARTISTS (i‘ll send what i traced in a bit)

BUT I LOVE YOUR STYLE ITS SO CUTE AND ITS GREAT TO SEE HOW IT HELPED YOU! 🤭

[rain ingot]

After a few years, im getting back into art, any advices to warm up quicker?

Because my art is significantly worse than before if you ask me

[grizzled cobalt]

Nah THIS LOOKS FANTASTIC!! The only thing I wanna point out is the eyes on the left, they look kinda off

[steady swan]

Just do recaps of studies of what you already knew, trust me after a few it comes back quickly

[rain ingot]

Thank you, i guess i will start to study anatomy again

[steady swan]

Not study all over but do mini recaps

[rain ingot]

I didnt exactly learn everything

[steady swan]

I‘d also suggest warm ups of drawing shapes

[steady swan]

Then study the rest, YOU GOT THIS!

I‘d give you tips and try to help but im not that good either

[rain ingot]

Gotta study feet and hands, m y w o r s t f e a r s

or every artists worst fears tbh

[steady swan]

NOT FEET

DONT LET ANYONE SEE

THEYLL THINK THE WORST

[grizzled cobalt]

My tip is draw what you like to draw, not what you think you need to draw. Personally this helped me get back into art after long breaks.

[rain ingot]

that part is where ethic gets questionable

for me

[rain ingot]

(i have talent for drawing feet 😭)

[steady swan]

Guy i need a tip for myself, i often feel disapointed because everyones always putting more into their art and i want to do as much. But the problem is im so drained from having to do it forcfully at school, and to top it off i dont even really know what I myself like to draw. What should i do?

[steady swan]

(Im thinking the worst 😞)

[rain ingot]

what i did before was just starting with a line, then going crazy from that

draw whatever you want from that line

[steady swan]

like a one line challange?

[rain ingot]

dont be like "I HAVE TO DRAW PERFECT LINEART!!!!" just let it go, let the pen glide

[rain ingot]

No, no, just a starting point for your imagination

[steady swan]

I never thought of that, thank you c:

[rain ingot]

tbh that mindset is what kills peoples love for art, that is where things get more of a business like

no art needs perfect line art

[frail path]

my stupid ass won't even complete my own art

got any tips for motivation?

[rain ingot]

that is okay to a some degree

[steady swan]

No for me its that im fone with really messy art infact i love it, but its just that im so dependent on studying from reference that i lost creativity and feel like everything has to be studied

[rain ingot]

if you dont feel like it that moment, dont push yourself

[frail path]

same, don't ask why

[grizzled cobalt]

Draw anything, in any style
And after some time I'm sure you will find your cup of tea
Draw things in your room, modify them (like giving them eyes or something)
Experimentate with art

At least that's what I think

[steady swan]

Cant help, im the same 🥲

[frail path]

we both probably have adhd 😭

innatentive*

[rain ingot]

Not everything has to be accurate to real life, take animes for example, they can look beautiful without being anatomically or logically correct

Sometimes its best to go mentally insane (and draw cars with legs ofc)

[steady swan]

I got it thank you!

[frail path]

object show ahh type of advice

[steady swan]

NOO PLEASE

[grizzled cobalt]

😭

[frail path]

"battle for dream island" ahh advice 💀

[grizzled cobalt]

I'm terrible at giving advice 🗣️

[rain ingot]

If any of you looked at my notebook irl, you would question if i even try to finish them 😭

[frail path]

same 🗣️

[frail path]

dude I rarely erase my sketches

[rain ingot]

Erase? what is that

[frail path]

my sketches are better than line art 💀

[rain ingot]

Same here 💀

[frail path]

ayy

[rain ingot]

I absolutely suck at lineart

[grizzled cobalt]

FR THO SKETCHES ALWAYS LOOK MORE EFFORTFUL

[rain ingot]

for me sketches show much more emotions

[frail path]

ikr

[grizzled cobalt]

I like doing lineart but sketches feel more real

[frail path]

people that use sketches on digital art are stupid

[steady swan]

Yeah but i lost the creativity to think that way or if i try it i always try realism

[frail path]

change my mind

[frail path]

could draw torso, not arms

[rain ingot]

only thing i draw realistically is gore 💀

[grizzled cobalt]

You can't draw lineart from the first try 😭

[frail path]

why are you like me 😭

[grizzled cobalt]

At least I cant

[frail path]

me:

[rain ingot]

Some of my friends call me a psycho

[frail path]

that's because we are

besto friendo.

[steady swan]

🤭

[rain ingot]

check dms

[grizzled cobalt]

For some reason I started liking drawing creepy things though I'm sensitive to horror

[steady swan]

I think everyone gets that as a phase unless you adapt it

[grizzled cobalt]

Personally Liam Vickers' art inspired me to draw creepy things

It's fascinating in a way

[steady swan]

I believe sketches are better though only because they have more flow and rythm. lazier artists tend to have better works

Oh! Im gonna check him out

Its cutesy creepy :0

[grizzled cobalt]

Yeah hes a cool guy

[grizzled cobalt]

Exactly

[steady swan]

Thats actually awesome

[steady swan]

Kars -jojo’s
Chifuyu -Tokyo revenges
Chainsaw man (if you know you know)

But here’s an example of me always using reference

[grizzled cobalt]

redrew

looks better imo, i changed him a little tho but i can do that because he doesnt hve a reference sheet yet

he looks more badass now :3 but also cutesy

[solid silo]

How did i do?

Also, looking for advices to be more creative with those kind of faces without getting a lot out of style

[austere raven]

How do you draw perfects wafts

Im on my grave trying to master it

[devout flax]

thanks! yeah it helped my style a bunch

i think what young artists need to realize tho is that they cant just claim it to be their art. that’s basically stealing so as long as you dont call it your art 💖

[pine crane]

I used the blur tool for the first time

[pine crane]

Should I start the coloring process?
