weird arm

left arm looks horrribblllyy off and I've been struggling to fix it, please help! if you see anything else wrong please point it out too,,

I think the main thing would be fortshorting

Basically your left arm is technically farther away from the camera, and there is no marks for the palm as well, to mark if it’s the inside or outside of the hand

Basically forshorten the forearm a bit, because right now it looks like it extends from her chest rather than her arm socket beyond the hair

Hope this helps, it might be hard to show tho because of the hair, but I’m sure you can do it

what do you mean? I'm not really into the whole art lingo so if u can explain foreshortening to me please 😭

sorry lol

basically foreshorting and perspective is, what’s father away from the camera will be smaller to show how said farther/closer the object or person is, in this case for your arm

Basically your arm kinda goes in a straight line? To her chest rather then going smaller and reaching to her arm

It’s a hard thing to learn and get right without body parts just turning into baby arms, legs or hands I’m still learning myself but it’s what I know

It’s alright don’t worry about it😭

Try to imagine where her elbow is on the floor and away from the body to the side that leads her forearm to be pointed to the camera

[grand dagger]

does this make sense?? 😭😭😭

like it's rough

[ivory halo]

Did

Did it just

Censor but

[grand dagger]

YES LOL

[ivory halo]

LMAO

[grand dagger]

it said I was typing 2 fast 💔💔

It’s rough but it gets the basic idea down correctly I must say

Her shoulder is a bit further front then it should be, but we can ignore that for this art thanks to the hair lol, as we are focusing on the fore arm

But the way the angle the forearm is facing and the way it grows bigger toward the camera is pretty good

Just follow your sketch and move the hand, make sure it follows your basic anatomy and size of your right arm

And it should be perfect

okok ignoring the block for hair does this do it?

I feel like it's a bit better but needs minor tweaking

[ivory halo]

I think push the forearm a bit more out and after the tweaking, yea it should do it

Make sure her arm doesn’t look smaller then it should be

Flip the canvas if you need to, to get a fresh look

[grand dagger]

okok tweaked it a bit more here it is flipped and unflipped

wait let me fix the botton of the hand

[ivory halo]

Yea make sure to fix the hand😭

Make sure it’s tilted and follows the arm

[grand dagger]

ok wait is this better

[grand dagger]

scratch last one I retweaked it

does that make sens3

when I shade and stuff the palm will probably look beter

[ivory halo]

Yea it should lol

All that’s missing is the palm details to show it’s the inside of the hand

[grand dagger]

okok!! thank you for your help!!
