overall shapes aren't that bad, but it's a little flat i guess, it lacks volume.
that'll go away the more you practice, just keep thinking in 3d shapes. try to make things pop out of the page a little more.

also that gun looks like a joke, both in detail and proportion. look up some references when it comes to these things. make it look believable.

I'm not familiar with your process, but I'd recommend plotting out your idea as intended across the canvas so that you can only focus on refining that one concept and none other. So lay out a composition for one piece and not half a dozen.

Still, drawing haphazardly and filling the whole canvas like that looks very nice do you have a blog

It didn't "fix" anything, all it did was remove the stylization. Instead of looking like a petite girl, it looks like a cherub. Both are right in their own regard, but both appeal to different preferences. This is the biggest problem around here, too many people think there's only one "right" way. You'd think that in the Alternative Style thread people would see past trying to make everything match Renaissance works in favor of pushing the visual appeal and interest of things, which is what style is supposed to be about.

Don't be Peter Criss of Kiss wearing a Kriss Kross wife-beater. If you do a redline, just keep the intent of the original picture in tact. If you redraw it and correct the anatomy, but change it to a fish-eye angle for no apparent reason, even if it's well drawn, personally I would consider that a bad redline, unless it helps demonstrate how to execute something the original picture was trying to do. That's what a redline should be for. Here's how I would've redlined this picture, because there were some areas I thought could use touching up. The hair would need more time than I want to spend trying to clean it up but I feel like the hatching should be somehow simplified. All in all though, I tried to correct the problems I saw while fitting them into the original look of the image. Don't stop trying to help people by any means, but don't disregard what they're trying to accomplish with their picture and project your own ideas onto it.
>>
There is literally nothing wrong with his drawing but the beer glass. Maybe you two should stop redlining.
>>
>>2295752
Hey, he posted it saying he wasn't satisfied. I already said I thought it was fine, but I thought the hair should be simpler. I didn't do that redline for him so much as to demonstrate how to do a redline without completely changing the original picture, you'll notice I didn't even link it back to the original picture because again, it wasn't really for him because I agree it looks fine, except the hair. I do think the foreshortening on the back leg was wonky though.

>>
>>2295749
not that anon but your redline sucks. you may have kept the 'original feel' of the drawing but now she looks even more anatomically retarded.

Christ. Ok for starters, the butt that you gave her doesnt make sense, its so much thinner than her hip bones, i mean hell you outlined how wide her torso is yourself. zoom out an look at it as a whole. your foot work is complete guessing and you've given her a swollen front half of a foot, and the big toe that you made prominant is now half the width of her foot, look at your foot. does it do that? no
im mostly mad that you didnt even address the glaring issue of the drawing, being the girls right arm, and you left the flat beer alone despite everyone with half a brain pointing it out.

>>2295646
solid effort, its nice that you noticed the uncomfortable length of her torso and tried to point it out, unfortunately the artist doesnt seem interested. keep redlining honestly, this thread has more issues with proportion over anything else

>>2295101
and for you. this is uncomfortable to look at because of proportion issues. i know you're concerned with the feel but its a dull pose to begin with.
right arm- notice that the upper arm only reaches the rib cage, and not the waist, thats incorrect, the elbow would be lower since her shoulders arent raised any. you tried to compensate by making her lower arm longer to reach her face, which in turn makes it more glaring and uncomfortable.

her torso is too long. despite your style choices, the size of her upper body and the size of her legs are two different figures, make one match the other. right now, her head is very small compared to her body.
her head: i also just want to point out that her mouth needs to be darkened at least, it doesnt read as a mouth at first glance at all. and her skull is off to the right too much, its like her face was placed and you put the skull around it, its really evident when you look at the top of her head and how it flows into her hair
>>
>>2295708
he fixed the fucking porportions and made it generally moe appealing holy shit whats wrong with you.
The girl is made long by accident and he fixed that too, thats the only stylization element he didnt keep. Fuck off man.
>>
>>2295768
>The girl is made long by accident and he fixed that too
>by accident

You're projecting. The long torso is hardly the problem. The legs and feet are what were the most jank but the shoulder edit adds though since there is a curve there now instead of a dead straight ling.

You missed the point entirely. It's not about what I changed, it's how I changed it. I wasn't trying to correct the picture for the original artist, I was showing how you can make changes without completely destroying the original drawing and replacing it with an entirely different one. If I was doing that image to actually serve as a correction, then yes I would have done the arm and maybe a few other things, but I wasn't after that, merely showing in a few places how you can make edits that fit the original intention of a picture, but of course, of course, you'd ignore the point entirely. This place is full of "redlines" that are just someone else's version of a drawing and those aren't good, imo. If a redline doesn't help the original artist complete their vision, it's not serving it's purpose. But whatever, nothing ever changes around here.

My only gripe is the flat beer, and the shading on the head. It looks stiff, though I'm not sure if that's what you intended.
Your hatching is GREAT though. It's fantastic

what No.2295646 did is to show that when anatomy is done correctly, it will naturally look more curbed in

hey! this is kind of a late redline since you're already so far into rendering the whole thing, but it might be something to look in to for next time! sorry that i did it with a mouse, but i hope it still gets the point across alright. i feel there's mostly just uncertainty when it comes to the perspective on the figure. the top half seems to communicate that the camera is above the figure, but then the lower half has her at eye level, it seems. if she put her arms down beside her, her elbow would reach her hips! look how high up her belly button is! it might make sense if it was an extreme angle, but the legs show otherwise. i would make sure that everything is working coherently in the drawing stage before committing to the painting in the future. try using a grid, maybe? there's also some directional issues with the flexed arm and the legs, but it's a little hard to explain with words. i hope my drawings come across OK.

the figure is also a lil stiff, and it seems like you're aware of this since you're compensating with some dynamic effects, haha. it still shines through, though, even beneath all the rendering and junk. i would play around more with what you really want to draw! i can feel that you want it to be cool and action-y and exaggerated, but you're just a little nervous about really pushing the figure. don't be afraid to make the upward fist large while the legs and feet are tiny! if you haven't already, watch the film "Mind Game" from Masaaki Yuasa, he's really good at drawing some crazy exaggerated stuff. do some studies of some still frames of the movie and get loose! you gotta loosen up, ya dig? after seeing the way he draws and the freedom he has, it's hard to want to draw anything normal.

but, uh, yeah!! i hope this is helpful. the rendering's looking nice, and i'm not too great at that kind of stuff so i don't have much to say in that regard. keep it up and all that!

Dude. Stop. He doesn't have a patreon or something, I think it's fine to reference artists to get a better grasp of this kind of poses, I did that too, Houtengeki's works are still pretty limited to pinup poses so not like he can reference him forever, especially when from what I saw that only happened for a few pics that are all pretty recent, months old at best. if he can already put out renders of this level then that means he's already on the good way, got to improve others stuffs now.

>>2296517
> Everything about his work is stiff af

That's something which should be focused on for example now. Though I do think he has got some construction techniques, but not enough. Just like everyone else here, there is lots of room for improvement.

He doesn't. Look at the tail in >>2296452. The discrepancy in quality is massive because he has no construction technique nor does he have an understanding of objects in space. He only knows how to make half ass copies off references. He's not trying to understand the reference. He's just mindlessly copying it. You can't learn that way. You have to be conscious of what you're doing, why you're doing it and why it works for the artist who did it originally.

>So fucking much to learn, I really need to git gud
>>
>>2296562
>What so bad about the sack?

The sack is flat. The pattern on the sack should help to demonstrate the volume without rendering but the patter is drawn too flat and the rendering doesn't help. It doesn't demonstrate believable volume in the form. The torso also isn't connected to the hips because there is no sense of perspective on the torso in relation to the hips. You need to stop mindlessly copying and think about the forms you're actually trying to drawing.

>And why are you ignoring all the head details part?

Because its just copied it from OPM, cut and paste like everything else in that piece. He only knows how to copy, he doesn't actually understand form in space, which is why the torso, hips, and sack don't even look connected to each other.

Someone brought up Kron, but Kron actually understands form in space, which is why his copies and more original works are good. But Smurf's always end up looking like cheap Chinese knock offs.

Use this tool to do a shit ton of figure drawing. It will loosen up your poses and give you a hell of a lot better understanding of how fat and muscle shift with posture. Set the timer to 2 minutes and copy the form as fast as you can with as few lines as you can. I did it for the first time today, and this was the result.

Stop chicken scratching try to draw more fluid single lines.
Pay more attention to the proportions there's a few things arms too skinny, thighs too long, the body seems to be attached to the legs too far forward etc.
The poses are stiff, i suggest practising gesture drawing to work on all of these facets.
Just keep practising bruh.
