That creature looks really shocked, like a few of those small tubular fish swam up its butt. I like the texture on the shell. Composition is a bit dull though.

Guys, I have an issue. I read the rules and it seems that i can post here my problem.
Now, this is it. Look at those horrible black lines, it happens when I draw short lines.
Anyone knows whats the problem?

You may be inadvertently holding shift?
>>2486518
He's not, I've had the same issue though sadly I forget how I fixed it.
Have you tried reinstalling your drivers? And does this happen only in photoshop (or whatever program you use) or various drawing softwares?
Also you'll probably get shit on for not using the question thread.

I had a Cintiq 12WX that did this. It's definitely not him. You might be able to solve the problem by sending it back to Wacom. My solution was to bury it in a storage unit and never use it again.
Nice lines anda textures

Looks like a shitty pencil drawing that someone laid textures over in photoshop.
i dig that

Just a question. I've been drawing a long while with mixed results. Then I came here, went on the beginner link, and downloaded Andrew Loomis' stuff. Started with 'Fun with a Pencil' and I was just wondering if this is the best book to begin with. It seems pretty basic to be honest, I don't really want to draw egg-headed ratmen for the next week to be honest.
>>2486002
If the basics are what you're missing you should spend a huge amount of time drawing either egg-headed ratmen or just basic forms and shapes (spheres, cubes, ellipses etc.) in space which is the same shit. Loomis just assumed people would find the former less boring.
Since you didn't post anything I assume your drawings are bad enough that you have pretty much 0 basics so yeah.
>>2486002
"Fun with Pencil" is worst Loomis book. Seriously, you should go to beginner thread or lurk a bit more since questions like that are asked nearly daily.
Actual beginner's books should be Dodson "Keys to Drawing", "Perspective made Easy", "How to Draw" by Scott Robertson + supplement it with drawabox.com and Proko videos.
Proko is ok because he distills in his max 10 minute videos a lot of knowledge, also from Loomis.
If you really want to go Loomis...

Then don't. I've never read fun with a pencil, but the very page you posted says "If your shapes do not match mine it doesn't matter, any shape will do. Get the working principle"
This seems to be a great exercise to just get a basic feeling for shape design, get your creativity going, have fun and learn about 3D forms. Don't copy his rat men, but draw whatever...

advice ?

Quit smoking weed. Your lungs and brain will thank you.
>>2485791
I looks good but I would try doing something with the cigar. It blends in too much with the lion and isn't pronounced enough. Make it a darker color and hit it with some highlights to distinguish what you are trying to convey. Looks good otherwise.

Also... Maybe some smoke?
I've noticed that most of the activities in 'Keys to Drawing', if not all, don't use construction. Dodson doesn't teach the reader construction and rather instructs them to draw contours and negative space for the most part. On the flip side, you have Loomis who teaches construction right off the bat in 'Fun with a Pencil'.
Why does Bert Dodson do this? Isn't construction one of the most important concepts of drawing? Should one learn how to simply measure and draw contours/negative space before constructing?
>>2485636
>Should one learn how to simply measure and draw contours/negative space before constructing?
yes
Keys to Drawing (and Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, which is similar) is about learning to draw what you see as literally as possible. Fun With A Pencil is more about learning to draw from imagination.
>Should one learn how to simply measure and draw contours/negative space before constructing?
No and disregard >>2485642
Drawing is not gated process, rather, it is holistic, and you should be learning all fundamentals as simultaneously as you can. The best course of action is to...

Agreed, many things you will learn will seem paradoxical, but learning from various teachers/methods/books will help round out your skills. You will eventually keep what works and dispose what does not
I'm doing a bit of artwork for a Game.. And we are on a bit of a time crunch so I had to use resources at hand. But I'd like a critique on the almost finished product, maybe redlines/ suggestions?
Anyways here is the piece.

"Done in the Quotables theme, I created this piece partly in response to a commission by celebrated author Heidi Durrow for her Mixed Experience History Month, which she single-handedly started in 2007. Nella Larson was featured in her website badge in 2012.
I was inspired by Nella Larson's writings myself, so I created this piece as well."

Makes me feel like I'm eating cotton candy as a fat kid hiding in a cave and watching the ocean too afraid to go out and let my glorious man boobs bounce as I swim freely amongst the mermaids.
Opinions please
