Feedback on this?
>>2479897
i would begin by not using paint
but an actual program with some pen sensibility
I don't like the mouth because it's a little "kabuki teatre" style
but that may be what you wanted to achieve
well, it will take some work and studies but drawing hairs is hard
meh, I'm reposting my meme
>>2479904
Ditto.
Pun intended.
>>2479902
how to draw mouth?
>>2479897
the skull is fucked up
here, it's not that difficult to google a 3/4 view
>>2479910
incase you didnt know anime heads dont have such big jaws
>>2479916
You're beyond help.
>>2479916
Look the only thing I know for sure is that your first language isn't English and that you're a shit artist.
Give it up.
>>2479922
i watched prokos vids and he showed me how to make a skull with circle
now gtfo faggot
>>2479908
don't have a really clear idea of what you wanted to do
but i would do it like this
but this is how i like things, you may want to draw in a more "80's" style
>>2479926
ok good, now keep that up and keep following his lesson plans, don't use paint, and don't draw anime faces
>>2479934
Go get fucked tasteless deluded faggot.
>>2479926
You need to take some time to properly construct the head. It's like you're just going through the motion of making the lines you were told to make, but without any effort of doing it correctly.
>>2479938

it's you
>>2479938
NO U
oh well i just realized he was trolling
damn i want my 2 minutes back for drawing that face

Why is the gun handle speaking?
At least have her mouth open.
>>2479702
see the redline
>>2480049
beautiful.
boku?
>>2480049
So you turned a cute loli into a crack addict trap? Ok den
Yeah you got decent anatomy skills but I think your redline lacks a soul. It doesn't have any charm and the pose is even more awkward somehow. It looks like she's about to carefully climb out of a tree house rather than being on her back being all silly and giggly.
>>2480049
you changed the cutesy slut pose into something more sporty and casual, imo
>>2480049
Noice.

>>2480049
What the shit did you do to her face?
critique please
>>2480236
needs a bit of loomis in her neck and torso specifically her tits
Real lazy shit.
The tits ge the watchers, right?
I feel pretty unmotivated after finishing a massive work that no one including me didn't enjoy.
>>2480291
the hair and face could need some improvement but otherwise it's not that horrible. good job, keep trying!
>>2480291
I think you should work on a few small drawings until you feel more motivated
It's important to remember that everyone here has times where they feel exactly the way you do right now but I promise you can work past it and be even happier about your work when it's over

what is up with her neck messy and beginnerish
>>2480291
why is she naked? Maybe you wouldn't feel unmotivated if you'd stop jacking off to softcore porn.
>>2480236
watch your proportions
>>2480049
you changed the pose completely and the expressions intent while adding basic gesture jargon all over the page to impress nobody but yourself

that one was new lmao ok thanks i guess
>>2480782
>sora from kingdom hearts
fuck forgot
>>2480049
I feel like a lot of people don't understand the point of redlines. They're not done with the purpose of telling the original artist "this is exactly what you should be doing." They're supposed to offer suggestions to the artist, and that's exactly what this one is doing. The advice the redliner wrote in this image is valid and useful. The new drawing's just an example of what could be done; the artist has absolutely no obligation to replicate everything in the example drawing.
If all you can get from this redline is that her face is changed, then you're missing the entire point.
>>2480813
>grab a similar looking photo in similar pose
>draw it
>talk about gesture to facade knowledge
>I-it's just suggestions!!!
No you bumbling tard, you are missing the point.
>>2480813
let them be. retards will be retards.
>>2480818
back to the beginner thread with you
>>2480049
that's actually great inputs
ic always complain about actually helpful redlines while at the same time complain no one gives that kind of elaborated feedback
it's so funny
>>2480122
yeah ik, it gets too fat at the end :/
the aberration is little and applied only when I wanted to separate forms with it rather than line thickness, or to push saturation next the core shadows
pretty random tho
trying to figure out how to simplify the female body to achieve a more appealing look, honestly having some difficulty. thoughts, tips?
>>2480921
Analyze how other artists stylizes it.
>>2480921
study things like pic attached, then do your own studys
cover form with lines, but not randomly
>>2480927
thanks
doing stylized studies, any thoughts?
>>2480950
Goddammit why do you faggots do this shit what is he looking at why is he staring off at some random corner in space why is he not fucking looking at the viewer instead of giving an awkward look is he blind is he autistic is he spilling spaghetti?
>>2480957
IIRC he's looking at his aunt and uncle's burned husks
>>2480957
what a bullshit rule
>>2480957
its what he was doing in the picture, thanks for the expert critique

Good job on the letters.

SOURCE on this please? Where is that from? What artist?
More thumbnail things. I'd say about 75% referenced.
>>2481484
I like 'em. what are you reffing? the red figure?
>>2481488
Just discovered Eric Canete, so I grabbed a bunch of his stuff.
I ref'd pretty much everything now that I look at it. Trying to learn better composition, painting without first doing line work, and filling the whole page with a scene instead of floating figures in white space.
I am able to get more detail down before tapping out from boredom...
>>2481513
... Did you just take a picture of your computer screen with your phone?
Ayy senpai pretty sure the arms are messed up.
Can I get a redline?
>>2481535
cool beans, dude. thanks for sharing the artist, I'm checking him out now. btw, I know you didn't ask, but my favorite compositions are the top and bottom left ones.
>>2481577
>>2481513
>>2480957
why not?
if its done correctly there is not really anything to critt.
yea, its everywhere.
so.
>>2480574
>Space spook
Awesome lines man
>>2480776
Everything he said was spot on.
A bit nitpicky, but he wasn't wrong.
I drew this guise. Please hang this on your fridge.
>>2481793
lol no.
>>2481948
>>2481982
>progression is pre-determined.
>this retarded.
>>2481666
i would give it a go but the image is quite hard to read especially the lower body
try a different angle or a different pose maybe, the way the lower right leg covers up the entirety of the pelvis and the way the right thigh foreshortens made that area very fucky. It also seems like you made the lower right leg too long to accommodate for the pose. The left leg cuts off at a very awkward spot unless you just cropped it that way.
I think you just need better planning and measuring proportions before committing to details
>>2480049
tnx, nice boots
>>2482268
Make your lines cleaner
Colors are hard
I like this artists way of drawing and with 99% of artists stealing from eachother I assume he has learned from some known artist.
Can anyone recognize the style?
>>2482270
It's my style.
>>2482333
I think they would look better with cleaner lines. At least to the degree you have on the face.
>>2480921
You can't fucking simplify something and make it appealing if you can't draw the subject from life the correct way. What you are doing looks bad.
>>2480994
pretentious
>>2482286
Doing the same type of studies not so hard now is it, turdnip? I see you attempted to slightly break out of the repetitive bubble with that one pose on the left. One begs to wonder why you keep drawing that same asian looking chick over and over again.
>>2482268
You need to stop with the excessive pet scratching.
>>2481666
She looks like shes a holocaust survivor. I wouldn't be smiling like that if I need a ration of food as soon as possible.

fuck you for being this good at something that looks so simple yet so hard
don't think i'll follow through with this but maybe i'll give it a shot
>>2483164
Its interesting, but it doesn't make much sense to crush something with your chest like that.
If she had tripped on something and just happened to land on it, it'd be cute and make sense. But I mean, who crushes a city with their chest? That's just silly.
>>2483235
>but it doesn't make much sense to crush something with your chest like that.
>If she had tripped on something and just happened to land on it, it'd be cute and make sense. But I mean, who crushes a city with their chest? That's just silly.
I think it's supposed to be cute and sexy you're being autistic.
>>2483235
maybe it's just a her coping with her proportionately small breasts.
>big enough to get the job done
>>2483238
Well its a loli, crushing a city with your flat chest would be painful.
And rather a hard thing to do desu.
Like try crushing a chestnut with your chest without flailing about like a whale on a beach.
>>2482268
I absolutely love your style!

Man, I always thought you and ThDark were the same person so I never bothered asking your for your blog. I feel kinda stupid now. Your comic looks pretty damn awesome.
I'm trying to move away from my fantasy style and try to mix it with something that's more "acceptable" in graphic design, but apart from being random doodles, i dont know where this is going yet...
Feels more like i do random characters without much sense

Really? That's flattering, Kukez makes what he does look effortless but I could never do it. That, and he's far more prolific than I ever am.
>>2484161
Stop. There's way too much of this shot out there already. I can't name any "artists" who do this style off the top of my head but just stop. You have so many 2014 art cliches in this picture at once that it's actually pretty impressive how unoriginal and bland you have managed to be. Let me list a few problems:
>Floating hat (popularized by Ariz, or whatever that graffiti artist's name is)
>Wiggly limbs (aka adventure time style)
>Oversimpliied/nonexistent face
>stupid patterned shirt
>dinosaurs
>lack of thought going into composition or actual interesting subject matter, really just a lazy conglomeration of recent art memes in one picture
>looks like you just got stoned, sat down, and tried to be creative
Just stop. Try something else. It's overdone.
Looks like there's some pretty decent art being posted in this thread this time. Allow me to fuck everything up for you (BTW this was done with a ballpoint pen and some highlighters...not that it matters)
>>2484161
What the FUCK Anonymous????
Don't do what's "acceptable," do what you WANT! Christ!
just can't find the drive these days, you know?
>>2483164
nice form,
i see you've been lifting bro
>>2484681
just out of curiosity what do you plan on doing with your art skills, id imagine in the lines of things related to animation
>>2482268
It looks like you traced over a 3D model.
Don't take it the wrong way, if you didn't then props to the pops because the form is solid.

drawing some mechs lately
... im trying to challenge myself, cuz designing machinery is one of the hardest things for me
last one from recently.
>>2481484
Got a late start today. Had to find me a Yoko for the bottom pose, but otherwise did these mostly from imagination.
>>2481691
I usually peak after my first one, and the others are just me polishing turds.
Still in the first stages.
I think the hand's too small... Any crit?
Facebook reminded me I drew shitty mspaint chibis. I redrew it, I guess.
>>2484818
i like it. i think the hair needs to be defined better tho, particularly in the back of the head.
i think you can get away with the hand size, but i think the knuckles/fingers need better dimension... same goes for the mouth.
the eyes really grab me tho.
Meh
i didn't want to make a new thread for this so i'm posting this here. does this look traced to anyone else, or am i just imagining things? the style of the outline and how it appears that it was built from an outline slowly, the hair being such low quality compared to the body anatomy. it all points to a tracer. what are your thoughts?
>>2484980
The lines look a little scratchy, but not really bad. If someone accuses you of tracing and you didn't, that's kind of a compliment I'd say.
>>2484976
i really like that
>>2484976
really nice
>>2484898
How old was the chibi?
>>2485022
2 Years ago.
>>2485031
Wow, nice improvement.
>>2484980
Lines look a bit scratchy considering how everything else is pretty good. But it could be just unused to the medium.
Even if they traced, tracers usually have fairly confident lines. I think they're just new to digital.

yeah, I'd love to work in animation, but will I ever get to be good enough to be noticed?
I'd even like to work as an in-betweener
but who is hiring? I don't live in Japan or speak the language.
right now my skills are sorely needed in the grocery store I'm working in in
yep
here's something I did a year ago
>>2485842
yea, you're pretty much fucked. Even though something like inbetweening takes next to no skill and the market is oversaturated the language is the most important thing. Also, you'd be making less than minimum wage as a fish out of water achieving nothing more than deadlines. you'd get no recognition working on generic anime as a unimportant worker. stop daydreaming weeb.
>>2485842
Do contribution n shit.
Only way to do this kinda stuff.
>>2484799
Just wasn't feeling it today. Gotta find something new, these are getting old fast.

>>2485913
this is dope
>>2485915
Thanks, unfortunately I don't know how to take the sketches any further. I can wrap my head around coloring in line work and throwing on some lighting, but I have no idea how to complete a "speed paint"
It is like going from a gesture to a completed drawing.
Can't show that in a Christian imageboard!
>>2485913
this one I think would looks better if it stayed this way.
I REALLY like the style and the colors you used.
It somehow reminds me of the game Superhot
because of the colors and the sharp edges. You got a blog or something?
>>2485403
Look into how manyy history steps you save, also consider turning off history snapshots if they're currently on.
If I paint for ~4hours i'll end up using 25gb of hdd space, even with 16gb of RAM. In general I use that as a good time to take a break and reload Photoshop.
Something
>>2485733
Thanks I'll work harder on getting those things right, I know I still wing them somehow haha.
blog's rokujuukyuu69.tumblr.com beware the edge

>>2485943
This semen demon is very cute
>>2485852
Guess again. This guy got super good by studying Sakuga animations, and he got hired by Watanabe to work on Space Dandy with him from Sweden. He's also worked on OPM and other anime.
Also, I should note, Watanabe reached out TO him, not the other way around.
Anything is possible if you git gud enough. Now quit being a faggot you fucking faggot. No one like pissants such as yourself.
>>2486205
Also, I should note that THAT was bahi jd's calling card. That gif is what landed him a job as an animator.
Look him up.
>>2485842
>but who is hiring? I don't live in Japan or speak the language.
Japan uses mostly Koreans for their animation, believe it or not. You have a better chance moving to Korea, but they work for very cheap.
>>2486205
but man, that's super duper fuckin good.
>>2486205
On the subject; good place to gather some of Sakuga work? It's all over the place, but wondering if there's a more organized source.
>>2486205
But Bahi speaks Japanese and the people who contacted him spoke English very well. He also lives in a country with a good safety net and is supported by his parents.
He's better than most animators, an exception and most can't compete with his work. It's really delusional to think you're gonna be a gengaman or w/e making a living off anime. People like you are truly disgusting.
>>2486226
sakuga.yshi.org
>>2486266
I think Bahi learned japanese as he worked for Japanese companies, of course because it's pretty necessary. But yes I think he got jobs before he knew japanese (well).
Little trivia: My friend went to the same high school as him and one teacher told her that he just drew every class and didn't very good in school at all, haha. That's some dedication.
