- four times the same "arms at 45 degree for reasons" torso and face frontal to the enemy pose does not just look like some dead manequin with weird posed arms but also boring , is she supposed to by shilled and not taking it serious? then drop the arms and give her some lose grip, otherwise give her some serious combat stance.
- first page head of guy is too far right and too big
- what is a neck
- first page dude is arching too far left into the girls panel. looks unbalanced
- is that right left reading direction? everyone but the first two panels look else look like right left. its confusing
- first page third panel. maybe give the reader some hint that combat started except the text, who is moving, where they are moving, its switches immediately to some static swing pose and close combat, was he already that close? was he charging? is the girl moving? there is little to no sense of environment or motion.
- second page the diagonal drawn by the right leg and left arm leading away from strike and does not look like she is stemming against it,
and leading the eyes into the bottom left corner when reading direction appear like the "argh" panel should be next
- motions in panels make no sense. first panels starts is a a horizontal swing. second panel strikes vertical from top with contact. third panel jumps at the girl when he just made contact? jump is totally lost in that little corner and looks just force into the remaining space.
-last two panels. put the "face+shild" first then show the "miss" you are already litterally explaining the big picture and then make some redundant close up of the dodging again just for the comment
- dont waste hours on animaymay eyelashes in a sketch
- everything is white space and lines
- drop the animaymay

The necessity for high value contrast depends on the style, though. There's multiple ways to make a character drawing feel lively, and in this case I can see color contrasts doing a good job at giving additional definition.

Your brushwork and rendering kinda remind me of doomfest/softmode, and in a lot of his paintings he doesn't bring any values towards the darkest blacks except for occlusion.

Got bored, tried to paint a quick example of what I meant.

If you up contrast selectively, you can get the form to read better, while still keeping the soft values which will give your colors a better chance to stand out.

Update.

I just gotta finish rendering the rest of her hair, and her dress, as well as polish up her face some more, and add some extra detail to her dress and stuff and I'll be done. The idea is to have it look like the official artwork for the game. Should be finished be tomorrow. Then I plan on tackling Isaac and Sami as well.

One of the most difficult part is keeping it simple, enough to give a believable form but not to the point it becomes uncanny and unappealing.

There's a reason why animu faces are mostly flat that show almost no form.
>>
>>2515819

But i REAAAALLLY suck at doing framework things

i feel more comfortable doing "renderings" for studying 3d

reminds me of the persona style (in the face),
i think one thing this could benefit from is exploring color theory. i can see you've brought green through in the folds of her clothes but as the other anon said, try to avoid using white highlights. a lot of your shadows look like you just put the value down of your base color, try using a different hue for shadows and highlights, it can really put life in your work

the braids/ cloth on her waist looks so good a1 mate

Of course you can. Select by color and desaturate just the green things. This is easy in Darktable.

i took a shot at it. was weird cause i've never drawn loli before, but here's my recommendation; it looks like you dont understand the facial planes, so try to focus on them in your studies. your facial features especially are really weak. but like other anon said, try to keep simplicity in mind, or else you end up with something over rendered and scary, so study and experiment with how you can simplify the facial planes, and use only what you need to to show form. (please dont use my painting as an example, i just wanted to try painting something with exaggerated features cause i've never done it before)

What the fuck is she looking at seriously what the fuck at least have her fucking head turn towards whatever she is directing attention to nobody fucking does this in life its so awkward who the fuck looks with their corner of their eyes is she trying to be discreet? Is she suffering from some type of head trauma where she can't turn and look or something?

>>2517082
I really like the drawing and the way you render but it feels very flat, it needs to have more contrast, a more dynamic lighting and definitely more general shading to unify the drawing.

Some parts do look flat doe to weird shading like her legs, hair and boot cloth strap things. These areas show where you no longer were able to reference the picture for the shadows and texture, so I suggest using several references to get everything looking right.

I'd say it works as an animation style
>>
>>2517601
Is that really your style or did you make it up on the spot to have something "unique" to show in your portfolio?
Remember that the most important thing in animation when it comes to character designs are characters that are clear enough for the animators to keep a consistent look.

Your character is stuck in a limbo between a stylized flat and life-like rendering. Think about it, would it be easy to draw her face and hair from different angles without much guesswork?
>>
>>2517832
A bit, but not really. I'm scrapping this idea, I'll do something else. My plan is: 2 pages of characters, 1 page of realistic landscapes, 1 page of "cartoony" landscapes, 1 illustration, 1 page of caricatures, 1 page of figure drawings and 1 oil painting of a sculpture. I'll watch some sketchbook vids on yt and try to get some motivation. I only have like a month to complete it, plus I have to make a 12 strip comic in addition to the portfolio. Maybe leaving everything to the last minute was not the greatest idea I ever had.

I'm feeling way too good about this, please roast me/redline it.
Took me about 15~23 minutes to get this point, is that good or bad? I've been drawing constantly for a little over a month now, btw.
Also, how do I draw nice curves on a tablet? The floaty looks weird to me.

It has plenty of mistakes, BUT I think it's good you're trying. I have okay knowledge of anatomy and still don't dare to draw interacting people, so I most probably suck at it too. Keep going at it anon!

motherfucker do you want me to rape you? Put a fucking midline on your faces and then place the features.

Then go and buy a styrofoam ball, the type youd place planets on for the science fair and sticks two Qtips in them ( on the two sides of the natural line often in these). Pretend its the fear ears and start turning them. Then. fix everything and kill yourself. Come back to life, praise allah, and redraw that chin, ears, facial placement.

Who cares. THE MOST important thing they want to see is life drawings. I'd say have around 15 life drawings, and around 5 pictures of other stuff (if you don't have that many pictures of good quality, cut a few. Less is more). Animation schools do not care about your animation; they care about your potential to LEARN animation.

I think the main problem is that the legs are massively long for such a small stocky body with no waist. It also affects the boobs because it makes them seem like they reach the bellybutton.

Sorry for the MSPaint redline. I'm at work and don't have a tablet either..

When you do a back squat the elbows either points up or behind the body. In your case, it seems like the right elbow is pointing down, and the left elbow behind. In my redline I tried to point the elbows behind since it looks nicer from a posing POV, but it's obviously up to you how you do it. The other Anon pointed out how weight lifters bend their arms forward. This is true, but they're doing a front squat. The bar is in front of the torso and resting on the shoulders.

Another concern that bothers me as a weight lifter myself: The bar placement is a tad too high. It looks like your figure is carrying the weight on the neck.

There are two different type of back squat variations. The first one is the "high bar" squat indicated by the yellow color. The bar is resting on the upper trapezius muscle and the torso is more upright. The second one is the "low bar" squat, here indicated by the blue color. The bar would be in between the deltoid and infraspinatus muscle. The body is leaning more forward, which your figure is also doing.

Just like this anon >>2519020 said. You need to show the underside of the chin. The neck is for the most part fine considering the situation she's in, it's stiff and parallel to the spine. If you want to bend the neck forward, just move the minor axis of the neck (in the form of a cylinder) towards the viewer, but that means you'll have to redraw her head as well.

If I may to point something else: I think it'll look more correct if you show the sole of her right foot. It lies relaxed on the table and you can see the plane like her butt.

I do a lot of anatomy/perspective/life drawing etc etc (probably not as much as i should though) and i just have this really unattractive style, my women are never cute, sometimes sexy, but i like to draw everything with heavy blacks and dramatic lines. I just really really enjoy drawing like this.
Tips on making content that appeals to more of a mass audience?

You need to study drawings of attractive grills (and possibly photos) and internalize the right shapes and proportions.

Look at women with strong jaws, you can still draw cute women and draw what you enjoy. Angelina Jolie for example. Overall, if you wanna scrap all of what you enjoy, remove everything masculine and add softer lines and features.

none of those skin tones would change the overall quality or aestheticness of the drawing

if I had to choose I'd say right or center since the skin is lit up more by the fireballs

I said center because imo the grey tones (or lower saturation) on the skin make the fire pop more and makes the whole image less busy
