Poor comment, you need to practice. Read Loomis about how to reply properly
Why not?
>>2277255
There's nothing to this that is worth critiquing.
>>2277255
why?
>>2277205
Anyone fancy critiquing me?
>>2277205
it's hard to say without knowing you. the left one is more or less boring, and the right one has at least an own language. but it's on the other side so ridiculous. i still would like to have it
>>2277335
>its hard to say without knowing you
annnnnd /thread
move along everybody its just some random shitter.
>>2274816
ITT, OP is a fag.
>>2276526
Less please.
>>2277135
Dude he's fucking got no arms.
Cut out the chicken scratch. Not sure if you put the ears that high on purpose or not, looks funky.
Looks like it might be good if you cleaned it up, the part where the right arm meets the chest looks wrong as fuck though.
>>2277188
So you did basically nothing
gg
>>2277205
Perspective is fucked mate. Go learn ya some 2-point perspective and try again. Right now it just looks like you're trying to guess and it's not working.
Also clean up your hatching man, at least try to be consistent.
>>2277335
You're a fucking idiot.
>>2277255
You made a mess with some paint, congrats.
>>2277397
thanks for the advice. I'm just starting out so I was guessing most of the shit i was doing. Going to practice hatching and 2 point perspective and then have another go
>>2277397
you are right.
it's very great what you say.
thanks
>>2277255
the blue color and pink may work (tho I don't like abstract expresionism), but that sort of green/gray just kills it... go back to work, Pollock
>>2277439
Thank you for at least mentioning the style, even if you dislike it.
>>2274816
here are my latest works.
just started working with color.
>>2278821
>>2278864
sorry forgot to resize

Here's one I'd love an opinion
>>2274816
My uncle wanted a tattoo design, he said grim reaper.
This is what I've got right now
>>2278931
Can't tell what's going on to be honest family. Like a surreal house or something? There are elements in this that could be cool if focused on more exclusively and tightened up a bit
This was accepted to a local art show recently along with three other similar pieces.
How much is it worth in your opinion? They're asking me to price it to be sold or put NFS.
>>2280718
Your drawing is very good. However, I think you would achieve a better effect if you changed the face of Death. The one in your drawing is great, but is too childish: it resembles the cover of a Metal Band album. Maybe try something like pic related.
Or maybe use a simple and clean skeleton face, maybe even without the clothes, just a simple reminder of Death. The great big eyes in your drawing kind of humanize the entity, but Death should be something much more powerful and otherworldly.
>>2280752
I could see that about the metal cover, my uncle collects pointy metal guitars though so I think that will be ok.
Im on the fence with the eyes I like the smoking orb thing, not sure about a pupil though, here's an earlier version
>>2280738
>Professional now means got a half eaten chocolate bar commission for drawing furry porn for an autistic friend in school
>>2280765
Definitely this one. The smoking eyeballs are a bit much IMO.
Is this thread still actually getting crits from OP? I have a pic I kinda want to get back to and the drawthread is moving really slow.
Critiques would be super appreciated,
also posted this in the draw thread hope that's alright
The background bothers me a little but I don't know how to fix it or what to fix.
If you have another thing to point out I would appreciate it too
Don't mind the animu style pls
>>2281493
i like the way how the 4mb image size bumped the ram usage of my browser from 400k to 900k
>>2281255
Find a new academy to learn at. Florence academy and it's derivatives are shit.
Recent piece.
>>2281580
of shit.
>>2281581
I'll keep practicing then.
>>2281255
These are great. How long did it generally take per piece?
>>2274816
generic robot alien thing. dunno recently the best I can do...
>>2281580
Is not that bad, I think is the mouth that it needs to be fixed, the rest is really good.
It's unironic but is it kitsch?
>>2281493
Wow that's fucking good, I just found myself a new phone wallpaper (not op btw)
>>2281521
Again, thank you very much for your crit. Genuinely appreciated
>>2281564
Hahahah ahh man I don't know whether I agree but you picked it, like half of my tutors have trained at the florence academy
>>2281580
Everything below the nose is 5 years old kid tier, watch out
>>2281606
Cheers! Aw man I'm hella slow first two were like 40 minutes and the last about an hour and a half. Thanks though dude :)
Hit me
>>2277255
Bad use of color. None of those colors are complimentary. The contrast between red and green is too harsh. Plus if you are doing a pollock he makes use of negative space. It's not about filling the canvas with lines of paint but rather documenting his movements.
Sorry about the furry shit
>>2277255
Wow, another pollock rip off.
That shit was never even interesting to start. The fact that it's still influential offends even the most retarded of connoisseurs.
Suck shit faggot. Stop fucking up this board.
>>2283026
Overall it's correct in proportions, the weakest area definitely being the neck and head, but you lack the sensitivity of a more experienced which comes with time.
>>2283249
cheers bud, I'll work on 'em.
>>2277255
Just sit back a minute and imagine being this retarded.
Go for it
>>2283026
I don't detect any errors with perhaps the exception of the way the nose is lined up.
>>2283026
The collar bone is too far to (your) right and doesn't line up, the neck is too thin, and her face is too far up on her head. The nose looks wrong. Noses are the hardest part for me to draw. Her hair looks too stylized compared to the rest of the drawing and looks out of place, but that's just an opinion
The body looks fantastic though. Keep it up
>>2283026
I've seen a few people tell you the proportions are correct here but they aren't. The head is too small and too high up the neck. The breasts are too high and don't connect to the shoulders as they should. The ribcage and upper arm area are all too short, the upper arms should definitely not be shorter than the forearms. The waist is just drawn incorrectly, with there being too much space between the bottom of the ribcage and top of the pelvis, and that division being too high up the body, and the legs are too big, not in thickness but overall, as if they're not in the same scale as the rest of her body. Other than that, there are structural issues in the head and hands; alignment when it comes to the head, stubby and misplaced fingers when it comes to the hands. I'd suggest looking up more proportions guides like this one to start giving yourself checkpoints for placing anatomy.
i know i posted this in another thread already. but i didnt really get much of a critique other than memes. i saw some mistakes and tried fixing them up a little.
please let me know what you think. dont scream loomis at me, im reading him. referring me to a part in loomis you think i should pay particular attention to would be helpful.
>>2284762
I think this is a job for mileage. This is good, I can see you're coming to understand drawing form vs "symbols" as they say. Just keep practicing with construction, drawing through the figure, gesture drawing, and taking gestures to finished drawings. Where you are now, I would say the best thing for you is to pump out things, not get too caught up on or attached to each individual drawing you do, because trust me, even 2 years from now there will be nothing you've drawn during this time that you'll cherish all that much. You may come up with good ideas but by that time you'll likely just want to redraw them and improve the overall execution. So study and practice, but try to be okay with letting go and moving on to new things.
>>2284781
thanks i really appreciate the advice, ill keep at it
>>2284791
You're welcome. Actually there is ONE thing I feel would make this better, and that's if the downward arm could have the hand coming towards the viewer. Right now it sort of looks pressed into her stomach or side or something, and I just think if it looked like it was pointing outward, sort of like the leg below it is, that would be a stronger gesture. Other than that like I said, finish it up and do more stuff!
>>2284800
yea i agree about that arm ill fix that
>>2274816
be brutally honest
>>2283209
Don't apologize for what you spend time creating. Instead, maybe question why you create what you create, and that may carry you.
>>2285239
flat
>>2285239
well those are dogs.
>>2281493
BG has too much contrast IMO. Would work much better if you pushed the atmospheric perspective more and softened the contrast on the bushes a bit. Good potential, keep it up
>>2283026
Good sense of form, but poor understanding of human anatomy. Previous anon touched on most of the issues. Do lots of figure drawings and study up on anatomy.
>>2285249
This.
>>2281255
hey do you mind telling us where you got that brown paper from? it doesn't look like a sketchbook. please annon
Give it to me straight

>>2285878
Dude don't be afraid. This is your art. If you post it here looking for emotional security you wont grow. In all honesty, it seems like a nice piece, leaning towards cartoonish and that kind of turned me off. I like the eye specifically though, its attention grabbing.
Posting my own here. Can you tell I'm a fan of Pollock? I don't go around saying my art is the best in the world. Just paint how I feel, and I paint the hallucinations I see. I would appreciate it if you told me what you felt when you looked at it, anything along those lines, your thought process.
>>2285900
Heres a poster I am working on for a film
>>2283913
Enjoy this piece, would have been better if it appeared the splats went off the page in my opinion, kind of defeats the purpose of abstract expressionism. See we don't want tight confined borders or patterns, we want chaos, and sometimes within that chaos we see something beautiful.
>>2285876
I really enjoy this.
>>2280763
When was this created?
>>2285876
Digging it, some high chroma flat expressive work. Don't apologize for your shit as >>2285902 just fucking vomit at your canvas and post your work. It's expression, we can't tell you how to do that. That being said that work is all over the wheel and chaotic, try limiting your palette as >>2285902 did for emotional impact.
High chroma reds against a neutral palette creates contrast and pattern and there's an overall sense of composition. It's still expressive, but its not technicolor vomit.
Also what's the deal with the segments, how's this going to be arrangrd?
how long until i can be sakimichimichonga?
I'm hitting a wall because I'm not drawing from life, but I have no one to model for me, no money and no education.
How do I progress.
>>2286312
never with that attitude.
>>2286355
Photo studies. Or mastercopies. Or grab a mirror and draw yourself. Or go outside and draw people in public places like cafes. Or look for life drawing sessions in your city.
>>2286356
how long until i can be your sexpig
not the best quality but
>>2286363
But I'm an introvert, also it's winter here, lots of rain, lots of wind. Coffee shops require money to be in.
What do.
>>2286718
Train stations, airport terminals and indoor plaza's are good places to be in the winter.
not OP, but unless most of you are trolling, a big thing you need to work on is your understanding of fundamentals alone. If you can't learn to diagnose blatantly obvious issues, you're gonna be fucked
>>2284762
This pose looks awkward weight wise, and you can't honestly believe that you've studied hands and are so lost for direction that you're seeking "professional" help
>>2283209
Similar to before, you must know that you're obviously "winging" certain things. Do you seriously not see any direction for you to go?
I'm not trying to comment on the overall quality of any of these pieces. For all you know, your art is better than mine
Crit pls.
hit me
>>2281255
these are beautiful man
>>2286795
focus more on construction, you seem to be trying to distract the viewer with fancy strokes.
im too poor for a scaner or a tablet yadda yadda.
>>2286308
I don't have the money for one big piece of canvas, let alone paint. I try to use at most 3 different colors and small variations in their shades. I ran out of paint, and I ran out of canvas.
My parents just filed for bankruptcy, were moving into a one bedroom apartment in a higher crime area of NY, by the Hudson in Yonkers I think, family of five not including me. I really want to paint, its all I've wanted to do, but I don't have the:
>money
>space
>resources
>support
There are to be six paintings, this is the first, but no monies, so looking for a way to sell. Tried patreon, no one is interested. Tried emailing and calling a local gallery, nothing yet. I might just take a bus to NYC tomorrow, walk my ass with all those paintings to a local gallery. I have no idea what to do to make a living off of this. Tried getting a job, got sacked after a month in construction. Being off my anti-psychotic medication doesn't help.
Sorry for the rant, but I'm in a bad spot right now.
Walter Horton,
I didn't get a critique in another thread, so i thought id try here. It came out very cartoony. i like it, but only because I haven't made anything in such a long time. I'll come to hate it later. thanks for any crits guys!
>>2280763
the same day i posted
Are you still doing these?
Could you do mine?
its a whacky fantasy costume design.
>>2281255
i like this very much, but they are quite stiff
try getting some more gesture in your drawings from now on.
