Nigga this study is going to kill me.
>>2332123
Because of the terrible exposure and high amounts of grain?
Critique encouraged
>>2332135
Shame at that pleb script in the corner. You can do better than that!
Better version.
>>2332135
gotta agree with >>2332148 the signature is pretty shit.
The portrait itself is fun, though. It's a nice caricature, a lot of people just give them weird proportions and call it a day but yours feels a little more natural.
I don't know what it is about the eyes, or if it's just me, but they seem to stick out a little though.
>>2332135
>>2332148
thanks thats a good point
>>2332135
Still reckognizable as mark twain which is the most important part. Something does seem off about the proportions though. I think the nose and the hair are a tad too big. Only by a hair though. The face also looks a little too chiseled, he was always very round around the sides of his jaw.
>>2332161
Keep doing your thing, bit if you want to have a script, or typographic font you better make sure that shit is on point and clean.
>>2332171
meant to say "if you want to have a script as a signature"
Practising sketching, mainly making things cleaner and clearer for colours.

Beginner here, trying to get better at sketching. Crits plz?
>>2332280
Pic related, used it for reference
trying a darker colour sheet out. thoughts?
>>2332280
Well, it's ugly, so at least you got that right.
>>2332289
Unless that's a false horizon from the top of a steep hill, the perspective is messed up. The horizon line should intersect each figure at the same point if they are standing on the same level plane. So either both with have the horizon line cutting through the neck, or both will have it a half head height above the top of their head. You can't have both.
Also you have a TON of tangents. Like everywhere.
I think this would be more interesting with a more clear narrative too. Not much happening here and the posing of the foreground guy doesn't really convey anything in particular.
>>2332278
Thanks a ton. I felt her head was a bit small, but I wasn't sure.
>>2332262
And I ruined loomis again.
>>2332316
Anon you gotta draw the other one so you can get better at it. Since you're doing digital, just make yourself some guidelines on a separate layer so you can line it up, there's nothing wrong with doing that. That's what the guideline step is for, only with digital you don't have to erase it you can just turn it on and off as needed. It's still part of the regular drawing process and is totally fair to use.
>>2332280
in addition to the general things >>2332288 said, there's a thread for beginners that will suit you better.
Even there, though, you're going to hear one thing primarily: read the sticky and read Loomis. Personally I'd suggest checking out Proko's videos, his head and face drawing videos reflect the gist you'll get from Loomis. You should probably still check out the books, but a convenient summary in quick video form is nice.
So start there, if you haven't.
Good luck, friend.
>>2332328
Thank you for replying. I know I have to draw both eyes, and in the next drawing I will. I'm just trying to get comfortable. The only small detail is, I'm using mspaint so I don't have layers. Also, I'm sorry if I got it wrong, but my red orientation lines doesn't count as guidelines? I try to copy the red line like in pic related using that plane method.
>>2332337
>I'm using mspaint so I don't have layers.
Why are you using MSPaint? Even if you're afraid of pirating you can get better programs than that for free.
>>2332337
Oh, without layers it's not quite the same. You draw the guidelines to draw directly on top of like a projector. That's why you would put them on a layer, so they can be directly on top of what you're drawing and you use them to line things up. Otherwise you do it the traditional way, drawing the guides then drawing on top of the guides directly, and ending with erasing the guides. They shouldn't be off to the side, they need to be part of your actual drawing, one way or another. Adding to what >>2332341 said,
DA has a free in-browser drawing app that's actually pretty good and has layers.
>>2332341
Because with mspaint I don't get distracted by fancy brushes, layer modes, "miraculous" painting tutorials and such. Besides, failing in mspaint weight less (this is kinda hard to explain). And last motive, I feel really comfortable with it.
>>2332345
Forgive me if I got it wrong but you talking about tracing the guide lines? If that's the case, sorry I can't roll that way.
>>2332352
Oh, I see. I guess I get what you mean now. I did draw the guidelines under, but I erased it while shading the boy face. Next time I post a drawing, I'll leave a picture just with the guide lines so you can see it.
>>2332123
>>2332126
here's the original
>>2332135
hello dfp, yea gotta admit the signatures a bit ridiculous
>>2332358
You don't really need to leave the guidelines in all the way until the end of the drawing, just long enough for you to use them to line up everything in its proper place, and then you can erase them and start shading, The most important part is using them to construct correctly though, not to race towards shading so just keep that in mind, okay?
New to /ic/, I've just started this one but am struggling with the eyes. I know there is a lot left to be done...
>>2332366
Alright, thanks bro.
>>2332349
>Because with mspaint I don't get distracted by fancy brushes, layer modes, "miraculous" painting tutorials and such. Besides, failing in mspaint weight less (this is kinda hard to explain). And last motive, I feel really comfortable with it.
If it works for you, I guess. It just seems kind of like handicapping yourself. It's like deciding to only do traditional art with a sharp rock and a wall.
If you're worried about the fancy stuff in a better program, just avoid using them. Still having a program with some pen sensitivity and a better brush engine would help.
>>2332369
Read the sticky.
>>2332386
I read it, what's the problem?
>>2332389
You haven't, if you had you would be studying and not asking about obvious mistakes.
>>2332380
>If you're worried about the fancy stuff in a better program, just avoid using them.
That's the thing, man. I can't simply avoid fancy stuff. If I get photoshop, I'll want craig mullins brushes, I'll want all anthony jones, I google and save millions of textures (and other stuff like this) and in the end I won't actually draw. I'll just keep gathering resources and never work on what actually matters, that is, fundamentals. So, yeah, the best way to help myself is by keeping things simple.
>>2332389
you're not in the beginner thread, that's the problem
>>2332395
Not him, but the sticky doesn't say jack shit about what threads you should post your work in.
>>2332395
Sticky says shit about that

Nah never heard of him, I just drew for imagination.
I really enjoyed doing these

>>2332786
I liked the earlier version you posted like a couple weeks back or whenever. This one feels too sterile. The colour is dead, the background totally flat, the outline is uniformly very hard, the internal forms feel mushy etc.
>>2332687
the top one is top
love the hard highlights
>>2332821
Thanks for the critique! I had a problem with the surface being too absorbent, I think that's the main problem that caused most of that, especially the colour problem. I'm not sure why but its probably because I didn't paint the gesso layer thick enough.
>>2332687
bro, don't paint with opacity, bro
>>2332682

The flow of the lines could be better. I feel like you're exaggerating without much thought to how the shapes interact. There's a class called analytical figure drawing, or something. I recommend you check it out. Besides that, I like it. Maybe try to do a little less blotchy shading.

learn lighting types I feel they will significantly help you improve. For example, search in google 'rembrandt lighting', study it thoroughly start incorporating it in your work, also check other methods as well like 'butterfly lighting' etc. Got a lot of potential.

>>2333194
I'm not much qualified to critique but the idea is neat and it's looking good so far, anon!
Take what I say with a grain of salt because I'm a bit of a beginner but maybe push the values a bit more around the skull and reduce it a bit around the hands? Right now the hands are the highest contrast and most eye catching... unless the focal point is intentionally the hands, in which case carry on.
first digital drawing. just got a tablet. is this okay for a beginner?
>>2333305
Well I mean if you make a conscious effort to improve everything's ok for a beginner. However: make sure you post in the beginner thread here >>2331234
Now start your work on fundamentals pronto.
Also stop chicken scratching. A great way to do so is to open a blank file and just fill it with parallel straight lines, each one stroke. You can also try making several freehand circles or also tracing pictures in confident strokes (just for work on your line confidence)
Read the sticky and work through it and good luck.
>>2333194
>>2333194
I don't really get an ominous feeling, even though it has all of the ingredients. I think this would better serve as a symmetrical composition, with mr. Skeltal in the center, kind of looking up on him. Might would serve to push the lighting effects (warm pink glow on bottom and the coolish yellow green from top) here's something I scribbled on my phone with my thumb, hopefully you can look past the messy Ness to see what I'm saying. As a storytelling aspect, I would have him calling all the creatures toward him with the horn. Maybe fancy up the horn and make it more magical or important looking.
That's my 2 cents anyway.
>>2333293
the hand looks super symboldrawn
>>2333320
damn, the thumb looked so much more promissing
aldo does anybody else see that skewed face of an hispanic guy looking to the top left? its in the bottom of the thumbnail
I'm being a substitute in a kind of large scale art secret Santa. But something in my picture looks really off and I cant figure out what it is....
>>2333403
I think it's the neck. I'm not quite sure on the anatomy but I don't think human neck bones bend inwards like that most of the time. Usually they curve in the other direction, so maybe try changing that?
>>2332786
it isn't awful. I would leave it, though it seems to be missing darkest darks and highest lights
>>2333403
I don't think the neck is the problem. Looks to me like there's a problem with the way the figure is grounded. The way the right foot is angled/placed suggests more twist in the hips, which isn't there. The ankles are very close to each other and the shins don't suggest much twisting/bending, meaning something's weird going on with the thigh/hip to have that work. It makes it feel unbalanced. The legs might be a tad too long too. Try doing a basic construction sketch on top of it, you shouldn't need to redo a lot to get it fixed.
Red is current, blue is possible fix, green is approx center of gravity. Forgive it's crudeness, I'm no pro but I thought the visual might help. Notice the difference between the angle of the ankles and the angle of the pelvis.
>>2333452
Thank you! I will see what I can do
halp me please!
Workin on a wip, trying to gettin back into drawing got so caught up on work this year guess I got lazy. Well that changes this year.
help me /ic/. i did this grayscale drawing and i don't know how to color it. I have two layers, one is the background layer that is 25% grey and then the next layer is this drawing on top of it.
i tried a multiply layer and just coloring on top of it but it came out crappy and muddy. it's for a friend, so i really want it to come out good but i don't have any idea what to do next
>>2333495
Different layer modes will affect the values underneath in different way. These are some that I use:
Multiply: makes everything darker and tinted with the colour you choose
Screen: makes everything lighter and generally less saturated and shifted to the colour you choose
Soft light: if you paint a light value it makes it lighter, if you paint a dark value it makes things darker. Pushes towards the extremes basically. Everything gets more saturated. Good for glazing in a bit of a colour and getting a minor value shift.
Hard light: similar to soft light but more extreme
Overlay: also pushes values to extremes and saturates, but reacts with colour slightly differently than hard light and stuff
Color: keep values exactly the same but changes the hue and saturation to what you picked
>>2333495
Is this how you want the colour?
Because this is 5 seconds in Photoshop.
>>2333501
>Because this is 5 seconds in Photoshop.
It shows.
>>2333504
I'm pretty sure most people who colorize their greyscale still do a lot of just plain painting overtop. The stuff I've seen tends to set their base colors with color and multiply layers, and then go overtop that with an opaque layer and make it look less awful.
>>2333175
tones and selective details around the eyes are fantastic
working into this one now, any early thoughts?
also, if anyone has any color theory images handy i could really use the help.
Anything super off that I should fix before I start throwin down color?
i think i fucked up the nose, also how to draw hair?

study your drapery
and more than anything, I think you can use some hard edges on the form. Try reading Anatomy for Sculptors, its very applicable since you're working 3d. For the drapery, use references or find a tutorial from cgpeers (they have plenty of 3d learning material).
>>2333601

Started adding colors but something seems super off. Any suggestions?
i wanted to at least finish something this year, kind of
>>2333819
Are you saying it is finished then? Becaus eit looks very unfinished. I think you'd do well to bring in more colour variation and control your values and materials a lot better. Take a look at someone who is a strong character designer/painter like Moby Francke or Wes Burt, and you will see their values are way more economized than yours. I would also think of ways to bring better readability to areas. Like for his empty hand, perhaps the palm can also be that tan colour of his belly so it stands out and doesn't get lost with everything else around it.
>>2332107
>>2333535
make sure you get the construction lines clear b4 you ink it, the hand with the gun looks like you had no idea where your construction lines where
tried a bunch of different layers and then just went over it with opaque like another anon said. think it came out kinda nice. hopefully she likes it

>>2333931
Is this meant to be pixel art? It looks like it's just an image you've scaled down. All the edges have the same anti aliased look to them so it's all just a bit blurry.
>>2333549
You too.
I"m doing this warhammer test again. This time I'm focussing on making the characters exactly the same as the references provided, which seemed to be the only thing that was wrong with the last one I did.
Whatchy'all think?
>>2334029
Literally orcs and space marinesxDDD art.
>>2334029
i dont like it.
the space marine's pose gives me more of a "I know karate" vibe, like he's disarming the orc.
When I think warhammer 40k I don't really think of a fist fight where they are slapping weapons out of each other's hands and doing Gunkata on rooftops.
At least not between orcs and space marines maybe another race. I think of those two as being mostly "get fucked up and fuck them up in the process" types. There shouldn't just be anger in the orc's face, it should be in his body language. They should be trading blows, getting stabbed and shot and still fighting through it. They both come across as too agile in these poses.
>>2333465
cleaner edges and more contrast would help. also study tiger heads, his skull looks more like that of a bear or dog.
gave up on this after a couple hours, could fix more but i figure i'll move on instead. really need to work on digital painting. crits are appreciated.
>>2334029
take this with a grain of salt because im
>>2333912
i just draw portraits of people and abstract nonsense
but i think when you are posing these characters you shouldn't think of them as having personalities. Don't give them years of combat training and any idea of personal safety.
Pose them as if they were animals fighting in the wild, not as if they were people. You are making me care too much about them. It's like the opposite of what I like to do, they should be completely devoid of self restraint and humanity. It should be as violent as possible while still being tasteful.
If nothing else try doing it that way just because the last one was almost identical the way you presented the characters. Don't try to tell their story, make them the backdrop. They should set the tone for what all the little fights in this war look like. It's not an anime battle it's god damned war. Space marines are religious zealots and orcs are animalistic killers. Don't try to humanize them, save that for main characters not cannon fodder.
>>2334048
The internal edgework is sloppy. Get some harder edges in key places. Also think more about what the form is and paint the halftones and shadows to show those forms. Sometimes you just are copying shapes blindly and small errors are making the forms not read properly.
>>2333931
did you draw it normally and then just remove definition?
>>2333023
very comfy
>>2334048
THis is pretty good. Her left tit is too small, if you see that ridge that runs down the middle of her chest the tit you drew is too far off of center and her waist is slightly too wide at the belly button on her right side along with a number of small discrepancies here and there. Other than that your transitions from light to dark are a bit sharper in many places than the photo giving it that amateurish look.
Over all it's good though, good study. Though I suggest when trying to figure out what's wrong do as you've done here and put the images side by side, then dart your eyes back and forth from the reference to your painting, if you do it fast enough the discrepancies become clear.
>>2334067
Did you make a lot of thumbnails and preparatory sketches to figure out the composition, poses, values, and colors? I ask because this is still pretty similar to your last one, and IIRC you mentioned that they found it to be too static/peaceful, correct? Did you explore vastly different camera angles and scenarios?
This doesn't feel as exciting or intense as it could be. We already know you can render it to a finish regardless of what you go with. Considering that, I'd place even more emphasis on getting the earliest stages rock solid.
>>2333293
good job!
Still battling with drawing people. I've been watching a lot of Vilppu lately but I still can't seem to get any 'life' into my drawings. Desperate for some critique or advice.

>>2333856
that strong bold unbroken outline to the figure is not helping you.
the form is very flat, the only place that feels full is the legs and they are over done at that.
the anatomy on the head/jaw is just wrong.
please also post the obviously used reference so we can further help you.
>>2333900
thanks for the tip anon, im just going to redraw that arm you said looks wrong.
>>2333939

>>2333918
Just google "abs" and you'll be set.

>>2334037
The karate comment was pretty spot on after I thought about it. Maybe this is a little more brawler-y?
>>2334050
Also good points.
>>2334105
I made lots of little sketches of people fighting. I chose this because it it shows lots of the details of the figures and I thought there was something interesting happening with the whole blocking the gun and shooting back thing.
So in the email they sent me which I recently checked, this is the only thing they said
> Unfortunately the art you sent us does not meet the standard we require
> This is the most important part. All art must represent the models, this includes armour and anatomy, down to the minute detail of shoulder pads and weapons (reference shots are supplied). It should also reference relevant iconography and heraldry wherever possible. (your picture doesn't do this accurately enough).
I guess I just assumed it wasn't action enough. Also I was thinking maybe part of the problem is that I made the ork really big which might not reflect the size they want them. I might shrink him down
>>2334258
Personally I preferred the earlier one, but a punch could work. Right now though it looked to me like the marine was holding the gun in the hand he was punching with. The perspective also seems a little weird to me, it makes the arm look really long and huge... Unless it's a power fist, but even then.
>>2334263
Yeah it's a powerfist. In the previous one I wanted to have him crushing the gun. with that knowledge does the previous work better?
>>2334258
It needs to sell the figures thus it needs to look exactly like the figures. What they're doing isn't as important as them clearly being the white scars or those wolf marines or whatever. Maybe plan it more like a PR shoot, where the shoulder heraldry is pointing straight at us.
testing
>>2334271
That's my thought as well, I think I'll just move the marine's arm so you can see his chest.
i like this one kinda
Ok this is what I'm going with.
that's it, for now.
oh, i posted without the image, wtf.
>>2333175
bretty gud
>>2333811
I love the mood the purple makes, great job. Only thing that feels add is the bushes feel kinda flat, and maybe the girls legs look weird. Could also maybe add some light
>>2334414
Thanks! These are just the flat colors, I'm adding lighting and stuff on top.
For her legs, is it the shape that looks weird?
Does this rain looking convincing or is it just cheesy?
If it's the latter does anyone have any tips on how to paint rain?
>>2334439
Actually looking at it I like your style of drawing the legs, but yeh the leg shapes looked weird to me. Youre way better than me but I tried to show what I mean
>>2333912
I find your lack of a sex life disturbing
>>2334489

>>2334489
the whole image looks flat, the umbrella looks very flat.

Sorry to double post, but where are the anatomy problems on the head, neck and jaw?(I actually have expected the numerous errors in the anatomy of the legs to stick out, especially on the back of the thighs).
Perhaps I'm just over protective, I haven't received many criticisms yet.
>>2333195
i like it
but it feels off in a way that it doesnt have fully confident strokes or is dark enough
working with colour a bit
im thinking about rework the jaw thing but i dunno. thoughts on this? first thing ive done from imagination in a long time
trying to draw other ethnicities
>>2332107
ARGH. I haven't finished anything in over a week.
>>2334596
Your values are too dark. Contrast background/creature (light/dark) and within one shape, to have a better value range, make the light side double the brightness of the shadow side. For example, if you work with Photoshop, when the dark side is a 20 in grey scale value, then have the light side being a 40 in grey scale value. Not sure if this makes sense?
If not, just watch this and do some value studies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3WmrWUEIJo
A good point is that it looks like you're having fun designing this thing, man.
Keep trucking~
First time trying digital art

clearly. The river drifts into the sky, the spiked mountains lack depth and the colors lack key light. the clouds dont make sense either(or fog)
>>2333194
I like it, I get a spoopy macabre feel from it. Keep it up
>>2334133
lol
>>2334404
Pretty nice. Very scratchy looking though, and you might get more feedback in the stylized/alternative draw thread.
>>2334521
Head is way too small.
r8 anatomy pls
>>2334739
can't draw hands or feet/10 per the usual.
>>2334742
I can, I just leave that shit for last
First thing I've done in several months, not really sure what to do with background.
>>2334739
Is this a flat chested girl, a guy with wide hips or you also leave the boobs for later?
>>2334772
>fucking rekt son
>>2334772
Holy fuck I'm still sketching.
Do you add final details to you drawing when they are nothing more than stick figures too?
>>2334812
Actual body parts are final details for you?
Yet, you drew the hair, defined the face expression and even a fucking headphone or something.
I think your conception of basic constrution and details are entirely wrong.
>>2333082
Please keep us updated with this anon.
Blog?
>>2334732
I'll give it a try, thanks,
>>2334812
theres nothing to rate then, asshat

I dont want to see your 'stick figure' sketches.

Trying to loosen up alot. Is it somewhat readable, or at least interesting? I want it to be kind of confusing and hard to read, but it needs to be more than just a mess.
>>2334864
I can see a dog's jaws and a fork, and that's about what I get out of it.
It's not my bag personally but I like the values at least.

Finished product, this is honestly my first time ever drawing fur. Although I'm happy with the outcome any pointers is welcome
>>2334887
Looks pretty good although the bottom of the snout kinda melts into his body. It looks flat
Painted this over a Randy Bishop sketch to practice light and form. Care to tell me where I fucked up, /ic/? Thanks!

>>2334849
I was just asking for feedback regarding how the legs look and the torso. You know, anatomy.
This is a thread about "what are you drawing" after all.
>>2335034
Then you could have blocked in her proportions with all body parts in it, like everyone else.
Proportions and anatomy seem ok with the style your used, but the pose doesn't seem natural and I think the foreshortening on her left leg could be better executed.
Crits?
>>2335047
Thanks for the tips. I also noticed that something looks odd with that knee and overall leg perspective. Going to check some references and improve it
>>2334755
I think it was a barn - all black and white exept for that yellow. One of the finest rendering work in this thread and then no comment. Typical ic/ ...
>>2335056
left leg/calf is so fucked up. both actually but left especially.
>>2335056
I know her left shoulder is supposed to be in perspective, but it just look short compared to the right one.
Gonna drop some color on this - anything that needs changing before I do so?
>>2335088
Yea it was a barn, black board with white snow showing through. The thing that worries me is that in the movie/graphic novels he was bright yellow so it was impossible to miss him. Concerned that doing a 90% dark background would overpower the portrait itself in some way.
>>2335056
nice line quality, i think the confidence just isn't there yet but im sure your working on it.
thing that stands out the most is hands look a bit weird and the toes are too symbol-y. like for the toes you just went "i know there's x many lumps, so i'll put x many lumps". really be specific with every body part and how it is posed even the piggies.
>>2334337
I kinda like the thumbnail, but in the large version I don't really understand what I'm looking at. Are these mountains? Are we in a cave? Where is the light coming from? From what kind of perspective are we looking at this scene right here? I don't really know.
When you are drawing/painting you should try and see your piece from viewer's perspective. It's really easy to just get lost in your own work. Ask yourself questions all the time.
Does it have to be a drawing to be posted here? I have some modern art i would like feedback on, but dont want to clog up the board with "Critique My Work Thread #932422859"
>>2335205
Thanks for the crit. I'll definitely try to address the toes.

Any Tau influence there?
>>2335257
First time hearing of it. I took inspiration more from proxy green and duster132.
>>2335270
Tau is a part of a modelling thing some of my friends do, its a fictional army.
See pic, some amateur art of them I got off google.
>>2335056
Tried to address all the problems plus added more detail.
dont know where to go from here
also whats wrong
>>2335291
Head is too big for the jaw. The rounded cranium sticks out a bit more than in your pic - google "skull" and compare. The clothing is flat and two-dimensional, you need to layer it. Since when do skeletons have necks, and how do those lines make any sense on it? The lighting is inconsistent.
But i like the design, and the lines are pleasingly confident. Keep trying!
>>2335217
Well i waited for 90min and nobody answered, so i guess ill just post it.
I included an explanation because I know a lot of people complain that they dont "get" this type of thing.
>>2334521
You really need to work on your linework.
