Very early drawing, still haven't gotten to darkest or lightest values yet or rendering. Just looking for some early feedback.
>>2440699
give his face some kind of expression
Did this quick sketch
>>2440854
And then, after a little bit of work in SketchUp, I refined it a bit
*farts*
>>2440855
all figures are out of pespective,
horizon line intersects figures at same point in these type of shots
>>2440866
Yup, you are right. Just chekced with SketchUp. The cowboy in the background was too small (in sketchup, the two red rectangles have the same height)
>>2440855
>>2440901
Of course it's an overdone theme. What you posted is a great composition. However I really wanted to emphasize space and distance and I really wanted to have those stripes of light from the sunset
something i decide to paint today.

This should probably go in the alt thread but oh well.
Is this color block in on the right track?
>>2441101
did you give the Life Is Strange girl a C cup?
>>2441115
I don't know man, I'm really just trying to get better at coloring. Right now I just gave myself some structure to build on. Once I have the basic direction for the color I can define things better and fix shit like the bag. I just wanted to save that effort for the color because I always run out of steam too fast if I put all the work into the lineart.
finally got back to bargue plates. my hand kinda cramped up towards the end. been a long time since that happened :P
Posted this in the last thread and people told me to darken values of shadows. Edited it a bit and still need finished, but i think it's looking better.
Watcha think?
>>2441191
Still not finished**
>>2441194
It's gouache, gonna get a ref for the hair and darken under the nose
Can I get some hot opinions? I really need a direction to work in.
>>2441229

started last week, critique please?

theres a thread for new people :)
>>2441101
>>2441115
Duude, she looks really old. Like a mom version of Max. Its all the little suttle choices you made but the outfit especially. Give her hair less of an 80s volume and her crotcch and nose less definition.
the coloring looks fine I guess, but I'd say that the pants are too reddish in the middle in the lit area
Also frontal lighting like that isn't normally desired. Try moving the light sources over to the right or left.
The linework looks good, just the actual way you represented her I just can't stand it man.
>>2440604
i need to practice my rendering with graphite instead of drawing more fucking dicks

there are much worse submissions and THAT's the one you decide to shitpost?
>>2441376
there are so many drawings to critique and you critique a comment?
>>2441191
I like this as a general concept sketch, however the values do need work. Definitely needs to be darkened more so he has more presence; changing the background tone may be a good idea.
I do like how you rendered the shading tho, keep it up.

>>2441365
Thanks for the feedback anon. I really would've liked more depth about the color since that's where I'm struggling most. I need to improve my instincts about color choices and make sure I don't go too over saturated or under saturated. Nobody's said it's too saturated or anything thus far so I'll work on it from here and see how it goes.
>>2440861
So you're the weirdo who keeps posting "and then she farts"

well you are getting better
Does this face have too much contrast? Should I give the body more contrast to match the face or soften out the face more? Its supposed to look creepy but I don't want to overdo it.

yes. way too much.

>>2441897
thats the goal
heres some sketches from figure drawing today.
My first time trying blending colours and that kind of stuff. The hair looks terrible though, and I can't wrap my head around how to do it - can anyone give tips? He's supposed to be looking into a fire
how's the composition here?
>>2442073
maybe a little too stuffed. because of the two main trees
>>2442073
a bit too central for my taste but this could change depending on how you colour it, i like it though
>>2442073
I think it's actually really cool. Flat, graphic and static, but I like it a lot. Depends on how you are going to mass the values now I guess.
>>2442065
im making character sheets for a comic, they are all kinda supposed to "fit in" the same.
>same pose, top down 3 quarter looking to the front left.
>>2442118
I see it, I'll move them a bit apart.
>>2442137
too central you say. I don't think I'm gonna excite you about how I'm planning to shade it (pic related)
>>2442153
thanks for the kind words, I think I'll figure it out somehow.
>>2442155
i guess. they all look like the same guy though... maybe put off the comic for a little while. you don't want to be still learning when you are trying to make content, you want to be more prepared than this.
>>2442164
hmm, sounds like a good plan of action. thanks 4 the advice
>>2442161
the subject sits right between the center of the image and a golden section line, I'd push him down and to the right a little bit maybe
>>2442172
well i didn't really give you a plan, just that you should postpone larger projects untli you are ready.
im this guy >>2442067
>>2441483
what i'm doing isn't necessarily preparing me for the stuff you'd like to do, but i think a little ( even if its just a little) life drawing everyday would help you with your line quality and values. on top of that you should find some illustrators or comic artists you enjoy and do studies of their work. right now I'm doing one bargue plate, some figure drawing, and a page of hands everyday. if you replaced the figure drawing and bargue plate with two studies of a comic panel or illustration you like, and then maybe did a small page of hands everyday i think you'd see a lot of improvement. study for what you want to do my schedule wouldn't work for your art based on what you already make and what you probably WANT to make, but i don't think your regimen should be much different than mine. just sub in traditional studies for digital studies with some life drawing mixed in.
I kinda popped up with this attempt at speedpainting in the middle of my /gd/ related work today.
Why have I forgot how to render?
bargue plate before i head out for more figure drawing
>>2442073
>>2442161
the shapes and line work are nice, sort of reminiscent of zedig. it's hard to critique the composition because there's nothing happening in the picture. i'm not sure what you want to say with it, what you want to show the audience, what you want the audience to feel, so it's tough to make any worthwhile comments beyond fitting the elements of the image into composition guides (rule of thirds, golden rectangle, etc.) consider adding some sort of narrative to the drawing.
pic is an illustration by thierry martin, similar to yours in that it's just a character in the woods but what makes it great, in my opinion, is the subtle narrative. there's nothing really going on, it's just a fox walking through the woods, but you still feel a sense of adventure, like you're in the woods too.
>>2442070
It looks like you're using a relatively soft brush to do everything, so it looks pretty muddy for everything. Not that a soft round or other brushes can't be used for some blending and texture work, but the default hard round in PS should be your main brush for your base work.
As for hair, this is an eternal debate between a friend of mine and I...but she'd probably comment that you're over-rendering it. Personally, I'd just go back to the "you're using really muddy brushes" thing.
Also, fire is predominantly white, with accent colors on the edges, This kinda looks like a bunch of yellow and red wisps in a cluster. Try making a general white shape and then adding the yellow and reds on the edges.
>>2442242
Oh wow, you found me out. I've been injecting Zedig straight into my veins lately, and the picture itself is something that popped into my head when I was browsing his tumblr for the 100th time. It's a little frustrating because at the moment I'd like to stylistically achieve the same things as him (I'm sure that's only temporary though)
Anyway, I did try to draw out a narrative, which will maybe work out better when I eventually add colours. The mushrooms are supposed to be highlighted compositionally (being in the very front) while the figure will be highlighted with light and vibrant colour, hopefully connecting the two. The figure is supposed to be a gatherer, of mushrooms obviously. If it doesn't work tho I should rethink it.
I really like the pics, gonna look more into him.
>>2441987
You should be focusing on making the mom pretty, and then you add some slight changes to her expression to make her ambiguously creepy.
You're definitely in the right direction showing the white of the eyes and the big smile, but you rendered her face like she was a monster, and if it's not ambiguous, it just looks tryhard.
Check out this creepy motherfucker Coca-Cola had as a mascot. Look at how his face was drawn just like they drew cute kids, with rosy cheeks and all, and then the fucking creepy eyes, with creepy wrinkles, and the creepy eyebrows. I think you should be aiming for this kind of less obvious uncanny valley to get the results you are going for.
>>2442243
Ive used the soft brush for blending, but hard brush somewhere, like the eyebrows and eyes, and the hair too. I use a low opacity though, could that be it?
Struggling as always.
I feel my ability to draw from imagination slowly improved over time. however the consistency of structure is none. Everything looks floating around, not fixed correctly. I keep misplace eyes, draw huge nose, neck is too long... whether from imagination or not. the transition between observation and memorization is messed up.
I heard that, not using construction line helps, or drawing upside down helps... trying out all sort of things. any recommendation would be great.
>>2442447
Damn that's really fucking nice, I wish I was at that kind of level. How long do you draw?
Opinions so far?
>>2441386
this is a type of style i want to move into after i get a grip on the basics for about a year/1.5 years
>>2442471
expression could be better, he looks like hes just hanging out there.
>>2442482
Maybe. I didn't want him to show alot of pain or anything tho. I kind of wanted him to be a bit apathetic.
I'll try some different expressions anyway, don't want it to come off as unnatural. Thanks dude.
>>2442447
Damn those are some confident lines. Can you please answer if you've done the Peter Han/dynamic sketching/draw a box exercises? If yes, did grinding them actually helped?
>>2440985
beginner thread
>>2441191
Man it looks nice but the shadows can still go darker and most of all make some of the shadow edges less soft, all your shadows edges are soft, adding hard shadow edges can make it look much cooler, especially on the face.
>>2442471
Spoopy stuff anon, nice work. But as the other guy said the expression is weird. Also if he's supposed to be hanging then consider slumping the torso and head forward while keeping hands back only maybe I'd put them a bit higher, right now the pose doesn't look like anything, maybe like he's floating but even that's not very obvious, he's just sort of there.
>>2442447
you should learn a 2nd face
The hair is pretty garbage, but any critiques?
>>2442512
what are you drawing with? it looks wet with ink and smudged with pencil at the same time.
Thumbnail of a soon to be large watercolor painting for a bathroom. Will update
>>2442515
It's with graphite pencil, it's a little smudgy because it was rushed. I had to do it for a project I forgot about until like 4 hours beforehand.
>>2442507
thanks man. He's supposed to be floating, any ideas on how to explain that better? I guess it'll read better when i render the legs and feet.
>>2442515
Graphite pencil. It's smudgy because it was kind of rushed. I had to do it for a project which I had forgot about until like 4 hours before it was due.
>>2442299
Dang, thank you anon. This really helps a lot, thats the lighting and everything that I need.
>>2442507
>>2442482
How does the expression come off now?
working on filling my sketchbook
>>2442543
it's under bite makes it look silly
>>2442540
You know what, the first one doesn't look bad in full res for what you want to achieve,the eyes read different in the thumbnail, the new one looks cool too.
>>2442544
i am about to abandon this because of that haha
>>2442471
Looks great anon, I don't like the background color though. Is this somehow photobashed in a way? It looks like it but then I realized its pretty rare to find a picture of someone who's anorexic.
>>2442546
how can you see his expression in the thumbnail? That's practically impossible
>>2442554
Thanks dude. It's not photobashed at all, i think what makes it look like that is the edges, i have the guy on the top layer, and sometimes mark the layer to darken certain parts with the soft round brush, photoshop tends to leave kind of a white crust of pixels along the marked area when you do that.
Or maybe it's just because he's b/w and the bg is solid color. I have a couple of skinny refs if you want them?
>>2442546
thanks by the way. Now i can't decide which one i like better.. damn it.
I'm sorry, this is a dumb question but I'm having a really hard time trying to figure out what this skin tone is supposed to be on her hand and ears. I guess I was imagining rim light and mostly silhouettted but I'm afraid to make it completely silhouetted?
And honestly Im just not understanding how to get the right color.
>>2442592
I think the values are just really nice and subtle and making it look photorealistic.
Do you have a tumblr?
srsly I'm impressed man good job
>>2442605
Thanks alot, man. Appreciate it.
Don't have a tumblr, but i have a facebook page and an instagram.
Facebook page is ArtByTobiasJonassen (can't post link)

>>2442253
>The figure is supposed to be a gatherer, of mushrooms obviously
nice!! yeah, it's always good to add a bit of context to a scene when asking for critique, because it doesn't read very well from what you have here. especially in the second pass where the mushrooms are the same value as the rest of the foreground, it gave off the impression that you /didn't/ want the audience to pay attention to them.
i think the main issue here is in the ambiguity of the character's intent. he really just looks like a figure standing in the woods here, not like he's there to gather anything. i feel a change in prop would help greatly here. the walking stick only serves to push the point that he's just out for a stroll; replace it with a sickle or some other tool for gathering and his reason for being in the woods is immediately made clear, there's no question. as far as gathering mushrooms go, clarifying the character's eye direction would help a lot. right now it feels like he's just staring off into space, having him focus on the mushrooms, alongside the gathering tool in his hand, would leave no room for doubt in his intentions.
and zedig's good!! he's a good artist to be inspired by, his colours and shape design are really interesting. i'm sure you're familiar with his "i'm lookin' for" series? it's a good exercise in character design, a lot of the characters that came out of it were well defined by their props and silhouette. for this illustration, it might help to think of your character as a "i'm lookin' for mushrooms" kind of character, and basing his design around that. in my drawing on the right, i just thought to make his silhouette similar to the mushrooms in the foreground, to imply some sort of connection from the shape alone. a little lazy, but i'm not much of a designer anyway lol. just really try and push your designs to make them as clear as possible.
>>2442684
also, on the topic of shape design and silhouettes, i blacked out your illustration (pic related, the one on the left) and you might notice that the mushrooms don't read very well. bringing at least one up above the hill and away from the tree so it stands as its own shape will make it pop a lot more and give it more importance. contrast is a very strong tool for making something look important, so bringing it out and away from everything and literally putting it on a pedestal is a good way to draw attention to something.

>>2442067
I see some improvement. Good job anon.
>>2442665
looks good
plugsuits are really sexy
>>2442172
I don't think that's good advice, actually. You are plenty able to draw a character. You're already started designing for a comic, don't stop now. Go through with it to a decent extent.
However, if your characters are samey as other guy says, it means you should employ more reference/do more research, and more time in the thinking stage of doing your designs.
Try to imagine how a better version of yourself thinks, designs, and goes about in creating. Maybe you know you should be working some way, but aren't. I'm telling you this now as I don't want you to be led off your track. Doing fundamentals and studies can only bring up the quality of anyone's actual work so much. They can't fix issues in people's work and habits that were never about fundamentals in the first place. So, focus your efforts now on becoming a better designer, not a better artist.
Any critique?
i painted instead of hands tonight
>>2442739
I didn't want to get involved but I was thinking all of this >>2442172 A lot of artists and other entrepreneurs say "don't wait". You learn how to do it by doing it and you'll learn more by trying and failing than trying to be perfect before putting it into practice. In my limited experience it seems to hold true. But really I just wanted to say you probably shouldn't listen to Brian anyway. Not long ago in some thread he was telling people not to worry about construction and perfect anatomy and to just try to make nice pieces yet in this thread he told you the exact opposite. I wouldn't put much stock in someone giving advice that's all over the map, not to mention the other things he does to make me doubt his credibility. You still have a lot of issues to work out that would make your art more appealing but overall I think you working on a project is reasonable.

Crit pls. How do I make this better. How do I get better first read and how do I render big ships so they look big, also how do I into grass graphics.
>>2442925
To me it looks like there is no sense of scale - try adding some atmospheric fog onto the spaceship
>>2442467
Thanks man. about 3 years now. I started drawing when I was in high school.
>>2442488
I'm glad you like my drawings. and... no. I don't know what those are.
My only way to practice is just draw over and over again.
>>2442509
I searched the term "second face" but nothing came up. You mean i'm doing same faces?
If you mean by that, I've been drawing female faces only. It became my biggest weak point. I can't draw male faces without looking gayish sissy. I suspect samefacing problem also came from this habit. I gotta work hard to deal with this.
>>2442925
I think you need to plan out your values better. Simplify things, group things together that belong together. There is so much contrast in the foreground ship for example that it becomes a jumble of disassociated shapes, rather than a single object.
There is also a lack of hierarchy between the two ships. The far ship has nearly as much contrast as the foreground ship. Things in the distance usually don't have black tones on them.

>>2443467
but i agree its a bit overkill
>>2442925
>>2443079
Also, think about giving the little ship a trail. It suggests movement and also adds to the story a little. Maybe he is crop dusting. Maybe the little ships are being deployed from the big ship and are spraying herbicide to wipe out a population's food supply.
>>2443540
Thanks man. I really appreciate it. I knew something was wrong with the values but couldn't point out exactly what.

Some uncanny valley shit going on there. Right looks like a creepy 3d model.
The face in yours is considerably better, but the waistline is still unnaturally sharp and there is still more you can do to clean up the skin. You also have a lot of jagged and rough edges, and spots you left unfinished. Lighting is also almost porn-like, too saturated and warm.
>>2441064
Love all the faces. Nice job :)
Doodle I did
>>2443916
The colors are blown way out. You should move the left hand closer to the hip, nobody just rests their fingertips on their hip like that. Why did you make the feet bigger? And there's something weird going on with the neck area I think the head might be too high.
>>2442925
About making ships look big, it's about the texture detail too. You need to give it a lot of tiny volumes - it's unlikely that a ship that huge has completely smooth surfaces
it looks like a toy this way
You can get away with the smaller ship because it's one-man sized, reminiscent of UFOs perhaps, and yet still, it has more complex form than a ship that is, what, a thousand times bigger? (i am talking about the behind ofthe smaller ship, it is much more complex than the entirety of the big one - very unlikely for this to happen)

It's not very appealing. Looking at the thumbnail I thought it would be a bad beginner drawing with chicken scratch everywhere, mostly because of the old man who looked deformed, with an crooked hat, shield and staff.
But once I opened the image... there is just not much to work on. There is nothing that really looks off, except for the old man's arm? But even then it's a sketch so rough I can't tell. They are just rough sketches of faces and they look ok and that's it really. What were you expecting

I understand but I'm having trouble coming up with sensible surface design. I guess I need some more refs on this sorta stuff.
composition/perspective studies. I think they turned out okay, could be way better though

Whwn you flip, click save, you baka
Drawing some hips. Still have trouble with drawing appealing asses, especially from the side
Thoughts?

How do you get such nice scans?
>>2440604
>>2444602
It's fine, the values read well enough, but the brush work is a little sloppy. I would either try blending it a little better, or be more conscientious with your brush strokes. I can't tell how much under drawing you did before you started rendering, but having a strong and well constructed foundation may help.

thanks sorry for the resolution, Iam sloppy at everything I do< must be a mental problem

You drew this by eyeballing or did you sketch on top of the screenshot?
Also why do I want to guess 500 days of summer without having seen it
>>2444841
Damn, man. This is pretty fuckin' neat.
>>2444855
Eyeballing, comparing between angles and shapes while trying to keep 3d forms in mind etc. trying to get it as close as I could.
I feel tracing would kind of defeat the point of doing a study.
And not 500 Days of Summer.
I'll give a hint, it's a Chinese produced movie that takes place in Japan.

Thanks!

awesome.
Maybe her right arm's foreshorting seems wrong.

>working on filling my sketchbook
no you're not, you're working on a drawing of a dragon.
Start doing more pages of random exercises if you want to fill your sketchbook. The sketchbook is a tool, not a portfolio, it doesn't have to look good
>>2444860
Exactly, tracing would defeat the point, but this sketch is pretty good, that's why I asked.
Also, I will never guess this weeaboo shit, but I want to say, I noticed the woman to the right is asian, and now that you said I get an asian vibe from the guy on the left, but the girl in the middle doesn't look asian at all. I keep thinking she looks like Zooey Deschanel
>>2444871
Haha, wouldn't call it weeaboo shit honestly.
And yea, getting the likeness of any of them for me is super tough, my eye isn't good enough to get to that stage yet.
The women in the middle has her eyes open wider than usual in that shot so kind of betrays some of that asian vibe you would get, but yea the likeness is off itself and the asian features that you can see I didn't capture that well if at all.
I'll continue adjusting as I'm painting, hopefully get them all a bit closer.
just some mindless doodling
>>2444863
double check measurements and block in the shadow shapes first
Give me harsh feedback. Obviously I need to improve but what should I focus on the most?
>>2445019
READ LOOMIS AND APPLY
GET CHEAP PRINTER PAPER
>>2445025
I realize the drawing is on shitty notebook paper. Can you give a more specific answer that is not "read Loomis?" What is most wrong with my drawing
>>2444394
any opinions on these?
>>2445019

>>2445031
Cleaner lines, more form, less symbol drawing, more objectivity etc etc etc etc

It looks so much better in person, scanner doesn't pick up hardly any of the purple in the background and the face looks much flatter.
Any tips for scanning/manipulation in PS for paintings?
>>2445338
right when I saw the colored pencil I knew it was you, looking good
>>2445338
I like your color choices. My only gripe might be the eyes look like they're different sizes, her right eye being slightly smaller. Also with the right eye, the tearduct looks like it's sloping up a little much and isn't well aligned with the left eye's tear duct, making it appear crooked.

you are learning a very little amount from copying pre existing styles, learn fundamentals and how to feel form and construct form from scratch, this is a much wiser usage of your time.
>>2445381
no. post your work.
