This thread is meant for artists who might want to try to make stylized work in-between their studies. It is strongly recommended that you use this thread in conjunction with learning the elements and fundamentals of art. You can also discuss the visual elements of various professional artists as well if you keep it relatively articulate and civil.

>last thread was about mechagirls.
Last thread was autistic weebs getting upset because someone said mechs are harder to draw than animu girls. I still don't understand why /a/utismo got so butthurt over such a simple statement. They make weebs look as bad as furries.
>>2272808
If he had simply posted his work this wouldn't of been a problem but nope.
>>2272813
If you had an argument you wouldn't have went on a irrelevant autistic tantrum. You don't contribute to this thread in the first place.
>>2272815
All I said was that the most difficult part of the thing was keeping it simple but at the same time convince there is form and shape in space but without delving into the uncanny valley.
Does style come after studies?
>>2272824
Yes
>>2272822
The point is contribute to the thread or shut up. /a/utism don't contribute to these threads. All they do is shitpost whenever anyone even expresses not liking anime. This thread is for all stylizations, including cartoons and western. If people want to express not liking something, deal with it. This isn't tumblr, fuck off over to there if you want a hug box of people who think the exact same way.

didn't follow the autism last thread until the end but mechs are easier than humans. it should be obvious.
simpler shapes, solid structure and parts. are dolls or humans easier to draw?
simple things like this make me believe the cartoonfags earlier were complete shitters.
i wouldn't mind it at all if it weren't for this juvenile faggotry. the OP isn't even done by anyone last thread.
there are people out there that can enjoy both anime and cartoons. this thread was supposed to be that. but you people are too fucking dumb to live.

i like it
I did some more to my characters. I scrubbed one of them out. It would have worked as a piece of outsider art, but it'd be a push to take it seriously. I felt warmly to the characters, but they're too odd. What I'm trying to do doesn't quite work, the manner in which I'm painting it. But I'm sort of stuck with it, I'll have to stick with it till I have something passable.
Not sure what the solution is other than keep trying till I fluke it.

I don't know if it's a gift or a curse winning the adoration of the tumblr crowd in that stephen universe/undertale/etc vein.
On the one hand they're dedicated as fuck if you tow the line, on the other hand they're horrifyingly fickle and shallow and probably more vindictive than 4chan is.
>>2273366

>>2273390
>valid reasons for why UT is trash
It might as well have been a visual novel. The gameplay was garbage. The characters are the only draw, and if you don't get attached to them, there is no reason to play the game. It's for a generation of kids who don't actually like playing videogames and have mediocre taste in storytelling. Who needs good writing when you can just rely on gimmicks, shit humor, and forced "feels" bullshit? That is Undertale.
>>2273404
the gameplay is simply bullet hell, and congrats on sounding like a complete tool
>>2273404
>do I fit in yet guys?
>>2273407
>the gameplay is simply bullet hell
Which serves as nothing but filler for the narrative. It's not even good at being bulllet hell. It's obvious the actual gameplay of the game was shafted in favor for the narrative. It's clear it wasn't the focus. It should have just been a visual novel.
>if you don't like undertale your a tool!
Every Undertale fag is exactly the same. They can't handle the idea that there are people who think the game is crap. You're obsessed.
undertale sucks kek
>>2273395
imo i dont care about fandoms in general
i do hate artists who jump the bandwagon on anything thats popular, whether they like it or not, I have a friend who is like that and its like he doesn't have an identity. its just as bad as having all the top 25 singles tracks just because its the top 25
>>2273414
I have more issue with the people who jump on bandwagons but don't like the material honestly. What's the point of attracting people who are fans for a thing you don't even care about?
>>2273414
>i do hate artists who jump the bandwagon on anything thats popular, whether they like it or not
But how you supposed to be an artist? Artists don't draw what they want.

Everything else is nice, the biceps/triceps sems to be way too big for being straight and relax, the correction on the belly buttom line is because I don't think her right hips is going to be hidden with the belly

Oh shit I'm a retard, I was so worried about working with the contour of the body I forgot, thanks for the tips about the bi/tris. Also thanks for the hair.

Also don't the eyes line up to the tragus, I know you said you messed up a little but still.
>>2273555
I didn't draw any "horizonta nor straightl lines" there, if you want to see them connect the upper part of the ear with the eye hair, nose to the bottom, there you go, the wrong possitioning is due to it's not centered enought

Eyes are a secondary feature. I can tell by the way you drew the far side of the face that you're still symbol drawing. Construct the skull first, it'll give your heads the correct shape, then add secondary features. Proper placement > features alone.
I haven't been to /ic/ in a long time. When did this place become a shitpost board? You all helped my artstyle by leaps and bounds, then I come back after a while gone and it's nothing but shitpost and edgy-bullying.
Unless this is a rare occurrence I am cutting this board again.

feels like wasted potential

What would be the most efficient way to improve myself? Go back to studying anatomy? Colour theory? Gestures? I want to reach a 'saleable' level by this summer, if that is a realistic goal. Lay the critique on me, /ic/.
>writing jap on your sketches
Please stop doing this.
>>2274744
>another faghag that doesn't know how male genitals work
Definitely improve your anatomy. Don't take shortcuts to avoid drawing things you're not good at.
>>2274749
I have a tendency to write stupid commentary, puns or sfx on my doodles. I also like the aesthetic of busy sfx. I'll try to tone it down though, seeing as the images themselves should be able to convey ideas without the support of words/characters.
>>2274752
Yeah, I've been working on genitalia! The balls/ballsack rendering is still kind of awkward since I still haven't managed to wrap my head around its volume, but I think my understanding of positioning has improved at least.
What are the shortcuts that you're speaking of, though? I'm not sure if I'm taking any unintentionally or something...
>>2274749
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
>>2274758
Unnecessarily large/loose clothes a la sweater boy.
>>2274768
Oh, no, no, those aren't shortcuts for me. A friend told me I was terrible at drawing folds so I'm trying different types of fabrics/textures. If I could, I would draw everyone clothless or in latex bodysuits or something.

>>2274807
This kid looks like someone I'd want to punch in real life. You can start by making him look like less of a pussy. I don't mean make him a big buff manly man, I just mean I hate his clothing choices. Like, he looks like a total normie hipster that tries to act cool by wearing meme/pop culture attire.
>>2274807
Is it a boy or a girl? It's really hard to tell with the waistline, the outline of the chest, and the shoulders.
That hand is enormous, same w/ wrist. Scarf thing doesn't look 3 dimensional. There's no seams on the clothing. Thing on belt is unreadable. Wristwatch? Thing? is unreadable. Right foot is weird. Strap is tilted way too far. Mouth to jawline is bizarre.
You should develop your colors more, that's a major reason why it feels so plain, almost everything is the same color, with the same fabric textures.
>>2274807
its awful. youre almost /pol/ drawfag tier
>>2274807
I r8 pokemon/18.
But seriously. When designing a character, give him things that symbolize parts of his personality. Since he's a Blue Mage, the was a good call. Because he's also a courier, I'd stick a bigger bag on him to reinforce that aspect of him because his current bag is small and won't allow him to carry lots of stuff for more efficient delivery runs. As far as his clothing goes, it does fit him somewhat I guess. The fact that it's triggering the anons here means that he's a normie and thus somewhat fits the easy-going bit of him.
If I had to change one thing I'd throw a blue hoodie on him. As it is he looks okay, but with the hoodie he'd look a bit more casual. Just my two cents.
>>2274807
>Treasure Hunter/Courier
have him carry a bigger bag, so far the design is really generic
do some thumbnails
Now I'm obsessed with Edouard Guiton. I found a treasure trove of his drawings on pinterest. I combined a few today educational purposes...

Sorry about the last one, no idea what happened.

If you're having trouble with poses, what I like to do is mold my kneading rubber into a human shape and pose it like my figure. You could do the same with silly putty or the equivalent if you don't want to invest in a proper mannequin.
>>2274949
That's a great idea, thank you. I'll consider buying the mannequin, too. It could work better in the long run I guess.
Something about her arms is really pissing me off but I can't tell what it is.
>>2274963
what should piss you off more is how out of perspective her eyes are and how close they are to one another.
>>2274968
This. Also, Halloween is over desu senpai.
>>2274929
There's some thing off about the construction, making it not grounded. The pose seems to be uncomfortable... Cute hairstyle though.
>>2274969
Not this guy but that's the casual clothes of this character, not one for Halloween.
>>2274963
I think it needs more energy overall. Nice 2hu though.
>>2274981
Thanks. I agree, at first I tried to make her look like she was sitting relaxed but then I wanted to highlight her right foot and hips a bit more so it ended up being quite strange. The same applies to her hands. I guess you noticed they are very tense.
>>2274993
> Lambda
> 2hu
>>2274993
Thanks for the redline, this helps a lot!
Lambda is pretty much a loli, so I'm not sure if putting more emphasis on her hips and boobs would make her look too curvy, but I'll try to give her more movement.
>>2274993
Your redlines are nice.
>>2274488

The light source isn't very clear as the shadows on some of the ghosts seem to be misplaced, like the bottom ghost as the shadows in the rest of your piece seem to suggest that the light source is coming g from behind the viewer, in which case the shadows are too high up. If the light source is from the upper right of the piece, then likewise the shadows on the ghosts on the upper right are on the wrong side.
>>2275573
It's easier to list what you didn't fuck up.
>Nothing.
There.
>>2275602
Looks like I failed at making the object she's reaching for my light source.
Whoops.
>>2275605
Ah, now I see it. If that's the case its mostly fine save for the ghost below her head, its shadow suggests light coming from where its facing rather than slightly above.
