>>2292109
Man that nipple looks gross to me. It's so open, wtf. Surprising though, it's in that spot I always hate seeing it drawn on anime girls and shit.
>>2292117
I didn't even notice that.
It is kinda weird actually.
>>2292117
Try being less of a virgin/rampant homosexual next time.
>>2292123
I don't care what you say, the average nipple doesn't have a dip that big. It's an outlier, and it looks weird.
>>2292109
>sure, let's st-
>those big ass tits
Yeah I'm fapping m8
>>2292126
>implying you've ever seen nipples in real life rather than airbrushed photoshoots and porn
it's a normal human udder you dweeb
>>2292134
Here's the thing dumbass, I am myself a woman with boobs of my own, quite a few women in my family, and quite a few years of life drawing under my belt, I'm more than familiar with what real boobs look like considering I have to live with a pair. I've never seen a nip that looked like that, ever, outside of weird hentai drawings. Sorry I don't share your weird puckered nipple fetish but just because you like it doesn't mean it's normal for everyone around you. By the way she's not just going to magically sleep with you because you white-knighted her creepy vacuous nipples so get off my ass.

No more than the number of dicks your mom stuffs her mouth with.
>>2292152
Fuck you and your shit taste.
>>2292147
Idk, my nips used to be that way before i went through puberty. They'd only go in when I was chillin though, they'd go out when it got cold.
Anyway are you guys going to argue about nipples all day or are you going to draw?
You're never going to make it.
>>2292154
I wasn't saying it's impossible for nips to look that way, I mean it's a photo, obviously it's how her boobs just are. But it is uncommon in my opinion, and I'll be damned if someone's gonna accuse me of not knowing what real boobs look like when they're actually the spaghetti-toting virgins who've never seen one in real life.
>>2292158
>all this jelly about what a real woman's breasts look like
Just tell your kek bf to pay Dr Kim for a boob job.
well this thread is up for a great start
>>2292147
>those nipples are gross and if you don't agree with me you're a loser with a fetish, hoping she will sleep with you.
End your life. You won't be missed.
I agree with the lady, this chick is hideous.
Can you post a picture of your boobs, anon? You know, for comparisons sake. For science.
>>2292180
She's not hideous she just has weird nipples, and no, fuck off.
>>2292147
Wow, so mad. You sound insecure. Your art probably sucks, too.

I was already drawing something else that I'm still working on. I might do this one later. Despite her holey nips I still like the picture and want to do a study of it.
>>2292216
No, not gonna draw this photo. I don't know why /ic/ has such a hardon for these dark-as-fuck chiaroscuro photos with black shadows, but I hate working from them.
you need to be able to see shit if you want to learn anything. pic related: a photo with proper lighting to use as a figure study.
Yet another great study thread, /ic/.
>>2292248
It's not good for anatomy practice but it is good for painting practice! Both are good imo. Also funnily enough one of her nipples has an "innie" like the OP pic.
>>2292109
Are beginners allowed in the study thread or should we do the studies but post in there?
>>2292253
Post wherever you want, lots of these threads barely get any replies with actual attempts anyway.
>>2292251
>Also funnily enough one of her nipples has an "innie" like the OP pic.
NO YOU'RE ARE WRONG AND ALSO A FAG NO WOMEN HAVE NIPPLES LIKE THAT I KNOW BECAUSE I AM A GIIIIRRRRLLLLL
>>2292258
>most people don't have nipples like this = no one has nipples like this
>>2292259
http://www.embarrassingissues.co.uk/invertednipples.html
10-20% of women have inverted nipples
It's more common than green eyes or red hair.
>>2292253
Skill level shouldn't matter. I've seen some straight up horrifying work in study threads.
Besides, it'd be better to post here so you can compare to others. That's assuming anybody feels like doing it though.
>>2292273
>most
>10-20% of women
>10-20%
>MOST
>>2292279
That's not what you originally said though, you're backpedaling now.
You said it was super weird, uncommon, and an "outlier"
None of those statements are like saying that most women don't have it. Most women also aren't attractive but you didn't feel the need to shitpost about that.
>>2292283
Do you know what the word outlier means? Synonym for not average, in the extreme, uncommon. I also said here >>2292126
>the average nipple
Second post, I said on average. I'm not backpedaling, I ALWAYS meant that it looked weird to me because I've never come across it. I never said anything like it's impossible for her nipples to actually be like that, how the fuck can I when there's the photo right there? You all just put words in my mouth and made insane leaps of logic. The only reason I brought up my own gender is because dude was trying to say it looked weird to me because I just don't know what tits look like and not because it's uncommon but at fucking 20% maximum, it's uncommon enough for me to find it strange, especially since as a straight woman I don't go searching for titties. Go to any porn site, any pose reference site, anywhere you can see vast amounts of tits and the majority of them will not look like that. That's always been my position from the start.
>>2292297
>Synonym for not average, in the extreme, uncommon
Exactly
And 10-20% is 1 in 10 or 1 in 5 women
That's preeeeeeeeetty damn common
So you were wrong
Also
>Go to any porn site,
>the majority of them will not look like that.
No shit, it's porn
and
>Go to ....anywhere you can see vast amounts of tits
>especially since as a straight woman I don't go searching for titties
Why are you making generalized statements about things you just claimed to never look up?
>>2292306
You know what anon? In your opinion I shouldn't find her nipples weird. In my opinion they are weird. Neither of us is going to change the other's mind and it doesn't matter at all. It changes literally nothing about anything. So we're just going to have to agree to disagree.

>>2292315
I couldn't clarify that because of the stupid word limit. I do look up pose reference sites at times but not looking for tits specifically, and I don't look up porn sites, but that doesn't mean I've never seen them or shit from them. I mean if I looked for it more often, it would be more likely I'd come across that look, but I don't so I haven't. I do know that on the occasions I have looked at any porn or pose reference sites I never saw it, and I say that makes it uncommon enough. But again, none of this matters, and I'm not posting any more about it.
Once again some dumb attention whore comes into a thread and makes it all about her and her tits.
shout out to all the girls on /ic/ who aren't attention whores. I want to believe that you exist.
>>2292366
Shut up.
>>2292373
Follow your own advice.
>>2292109
is that paige turnah?
>>2292320
no one on ic draws anymore, all they do is talk about how artists working are all shit and how they are so much better.
had once a gf with nipples like those. they not that bad. I think they kinda cute and it gives character. people comes in all variations.
Btw covered her nipple for you guys who can't even look at a god damn nipple. you're almost just as pathetic like those people who want to do figure drawings but whine about naked people.
>>2292443
>they not that bad.
implying any sort of nipples are bad. sorry to go full whiteknight, but does anyone actually care about this shit?
at least she didn't have pointy elbows. girls with pointy elbows should jump off a bridge.

inverted nipples can be a sign of breast cancer.
Can you all just shut the fuck up and draw?

>>2292570
Seriously. I went back and stuck to line this time around.
>>2292147
I myself am a woman also and I've seen these kinds of nipples before. Try turning on a science program or porn. They are abundant.
So stop projecting and study or gtfo.
>>2292448
not only can it indicate brest cancer it's also a major problem while breastfeeding. Normal nipples are superior.
>>2292109
What do you guys think?
>>2293133
The head's a bit on the small side, but it's still pretty sweet.
>>2293133
Very nice. You pushed the contrast a bit too much for my taste. for example the shoulder isn't that dark in the ref. same for the breast area. On the contrary the hand looks pretty good.
Not gonna make it. First one in black is just looking at the reference. With red I used a guide for certain proportions.
>>2293575
>>2293597
draw bigger. Go darker with your values. Spend more time measuring proportions at the beginning.
>>2293599
aight thx senpai
>>2293597
Those eyes are huge nigga.
>>2293616
Yea I've noticed that a lot in my stuff. Every time I try to make it smaller it looks weird to me though. I'll work on it though.
>>2293575
Why can't i into crosshatching? Im not able to pinpoint what exactly is bad (line quality, values, form?).
And how do i improve the hatching, is it just milage?
rapoza and burt make it look so easy
It's Beehive Time!
>>2292109
I really need to go back to basics.
>>2293892
It looks like you go from one area to another without much structure
Figure out the planes of the face and build it up rather than doing each part separately
Also sort out a method of direction of your lines. Do you want it all one way, or curving with the shape of the face, or have each value a different direction? The more solid you are with your approach, the more finished and deliberate the final piece looks
>>2294153
Its all over the place at the moment i cant really seperate the values.
How do people normaly approach this? Base values -> shadows -> midtones? Most of the stuff on youtube on hatching sucks so i kinda dont know what im doing
>>2293997
>>2294175
I like the fact that your strokes aren't blended together but the ms paint aesthetic and proportion issues make it look very unappealing.
>>2294240
Thanks, I do try and pick all colours (or values) manually, with no blending as I heard it was good practice.
And my initial linework was crap to begin with - me and my shit attention span just wanted to get to the painting asap.
>>2292109
Dumping shit I found on Pinterest.
I remember one time in high school some rich kid who would steal watches from the mall put me in a headlock for saying Pinterest was for girls.
Good times.
Whelp, shit didnt go so good. Gave her a big head on purpose. Wasnt a proportion issue. I thought her small head was sexist and I think women have big brains so i adjusted.
>>2294704
Ironic shit-posting is still shit-posting anon.
>>2293597
do you turn everything you draw into an anime/real hybrid? could be a popular gimmick
are you done discussing nipples guys
wip
>>2292109
Just the sketch right now
>>2294863
It's something I'm trying to fix. When I try to draw some realistic girl it ends up looking stylized
How do I get rid of this habit?
Just something I put together in the time I had
It's been a long time since I did a proper focused study of a face, so this was pretty fun to do and hopefully some of the likeness is there
I pussied out a little bit on the nose and lips, gotta get confident there too
hopefully if my proportions arent too fucked (save the eyes, they're so much bigger than the reference holy shit) I can start focusing more on shading
>>2295823
Good shit nigger.
pls continue.
>>2295349
is this image blurry to anyone else or are my eyes going?
>>2295831
It's slightly blurry.
>>2295823
You are symbol drawing. Fix that by being more mindful of what you're actually seeing, and your art will improve tremendously.
>>2295823
hey mind if i ask for some advice. i want to get as good as what you are right now but am failing at drawing like that. do you have any advice
i know there is a sticky but i am looking for advice on how you got it that way.
i tryed >>2294533 and failed badly i will post a pic of what i did
also fuck yea i am getting real fucking paper tomorrow to draw fuck this line shit
>>2295845
how do you remove yourself from symbol drawing mind if i ask
>>2295849
'how I got it that way' lies mostly in the setup of the drawing, i think.
By no means did I set everything up perfectly, but I always aim to get a general shape of the face and head. I haven't read many books on learning to draw, but I'd imagine that at least 99% of them would tell you to set up the head this way.
You can still sort of see where I haven't erased, I have a crossing of two lines to help me get an idea of where and how the face curves, and it helps me set up where I want the eyes.
The rest, as far as getting likenesses similar and for things in general to 'look good', all lies in learning the proportions of the face, and that varies with every person
for your lines, i think you're pressing down way too hard as well
ease up a little, and relax. try not to chicken-scratch as much
again, I'm mostly just regurgitating in a general form what most books will tell you in a much more precise way.
the sticky might be intimidating, but it's definitely worth it to put some time at the very least into what you personally are interested in improving on.
>>2292109
>>2292443

>>2296078
You've lifted the head up too far mate.
>>2296088
softened the face giving it more detail
>>2296098
lowered the face with liquify tool.
>>2295850
be aware of the 3 dimensional forms of the objects you are drawing, and the plane changes that come from being a 3d form
Well that was fun, but gotta go to work

>>2297202
You won't learn anything like that. If you're practicing drawing big boobs then fucking use references of women with big boobs.
>>2297275
Thanks senpai.
>>2293575
Could definitely be better, but I feel like I got some fairly good practice out of it.
>>2297625
Nice
>>2297645
Thank you. I wish it actually looked like her.
>>2297666
Thanks Lucifer. Yeah her face and nose are definitely too wide and puffy and I tried for ages to make them thinner until I just said fuck it. Next time I'll have to refine the sketch better to capture the likeness, I resigned to just try and get some rendering and color practice out of it. Not excusing, just musing.
Can you guys do this?
>>2292109
>>2297625
>>2297661
if you want a closer likeness thin out the jawbone and soften the wings of the nose as it transitions towards the bridge and i think you're good
>>2292570
That's a term from painting. How do you think you can "mix mud" from a black and white pencil sketch?
Stop throwing around terms you don't understand in a pathetic attempt to try and undermine other people because you're insecure about your own abilities.
>>2295349
Chromatic Aberration is a crutch. It looks awful on profession work too. Concentrate on the fundamentals and leave the superficial post processing stuff at the door.
>>2297874
This is really nice
>>2297892
Thanks for the feedback, I guess it's really like that, I only do it sometimes when lazy.
Any other crits on construction etc?
>>2296570
Scared of the hair, I never did realistic hair before. Any tips or feedback ?
>>2299101
don't think
>>2299101
Not bad. You lost some of the character of the face by sort of straightening things out a bit and flattening some of the forms. Would be nice to bring in that richer dark reddish tone from the photo too.
This hair is actually easy to paint. It's already sorted itself into a nice large single mass, and then within that has a couple smaller masses. Keep this main mass present (as you have block it in) and then start to define the smaller masses. Keep in mind the flow of the hair too and how each small mass relates to others and the whole. Careful of the outer contour of her hair because in yours it is wobbly and hesitant. Look for the major curves and angles and get those right.
>>2299101
Squint your eyes

>>2299101
Brilliant
>>2299150
useless comment
>>2295349
Kron plz.
>>2299101
Very close facial proportions, my man.You've got a good eye for that. Pretty good and accurate detail work. Got the groundwork for the highlighted and darkened skin down, but I'd really push the darks a bit more on her forehead, nose, upper eyelids -- just most of the face is in the correct PATTERN of value, things are in the right place, but... where the skin gets dark you need it a little darker to really match the picture. I'd redden the shadows a bit, too, because your color's not spot-on like your proportions.
Good job, I'm impressed.
>>2299101
>>2300077
Adding to what I just said, I know your real issue is with the hair, but oh well, I hope other anon explained it clearly enough for you. Personally, I can't follow detailed verbal instructions like that, but I was never good with verbal instructions.
Anyway if you are wondering what the next step is for your face painting, after you did what I critiqued, if you want to take it another step towards being realistic, is to start working on the texture of the skin and eyebrows, scrotum, and even the lips some more.
>>2300079
>>2300077
I've just read your comment, and I added more shadow to the forhead (maybe not enough ?). My sense of observation is limited here so I think I've finished but if you see things to adjust tell me. Also thanks for the feedback >>2299109 the hair was in fact pretty easy!
And for the textures,yes it will be great if I learn that but I don't know how to start maybe I will make some research.
>>2300103
I still don't think it's perfect, but you're a lot closer than before. I bet you're trying really hard to push your perception here now, so at this point you did your best, so I suggest you don't keep squeezing your brain over this one. When you tried your best but it's not perfect, then that's your best and make a new best. This is my last comment. Happy painting.
>>2300527
Lol thanks. It's really frustrating, I see that it is not perfect but can't do more. I will follow your advice if I don't want that it make me crazy lmao.
>>2294167
some imho good advice I got on the matter was to never 'cross hatch' I mean, it has it's uses especially when you are using inks or other one shade mediums, but with pencils you can blend and you can make a wide variety of gradations, instead I was told to use a 45 degree angle on the first pass and if you do another pass do a very very close angle like 42 or 47 (not that you can eye ball that, just trying to give you a visual) also not saying you shouldn't follow the shape either. but think about not doing opposite angles but doing angles so close they blend together, see if it helps more than hatching would.
>>2294532

>>2301992
autism
>>2301999
A lot of potential in this.
You need lighter highlights but careful when tightening it cause it can easily get fucked.
I'd suggest more sharpness/focus in the eyes and the hair falling on her face. Maybe separate the lips a bit more with a hard shadow. In general a very very good start!
>>2301999
>>2302246
Also, the construction can be a bit more tight.
Mark the neck and the rest of the hair, so it doesn't look like a floating head, watch for the distance between the far eye and the nose, angle of the nose, distance between the nostrils, height of forehead, volume of hair etc.
Good luck!
>>2293575
I hate the blur and focus effect
>>2297625

Stop, redo it and make sure all your measurements are correct.
>>2302350
Another one, tried to correct her chin more but couldn't give a shit anymore.
>>2302380
I think same thing applies to this too.
>>2302427
Yeah, her head is way too wide, her eyes are lopsided and so on. Don't start rendering before everything is in the right place. Don't forget to flip the canvas (and ref) every now and then.
>>2292109
would you, /ic/?
>>2300527
>>2300103
I overlaid the images and I'd say it's as close as any of us could hope to get. The likeness is captured, and the margins of error are negligible. The only thing that is noticeable to me is that the specularity of her skin isn't the quite the same. Other than that, you did a really good job!
>>2293575
well i tried.
>>2295216
I tend do this as well
>>2302611

Did you try? Did you really?
>>2302692

>>2292249

More like "lets see who can make a 1:1 copy" amirite.
There are a few people that seem to actually are studying
>>2292186

>>2303146
You can't do an effective study until you can do 1:1 copies. These people are just earlier on in their artistic development.
>>2303277
>You can't do an effective study until you can do 1:1 copies
>>2303281
Ummm yeah. If you don't have basic observational skills and control over your medium how are you expected to effectively study something? You can't form a sentence without knowing some vocabulary and grammar. Learning to copy what is in front of you has been the most basic exercise for centuries--students start with copying diagrams or casts before moving on to more complex things.
>>2303277

What is an efective study senpai?
Say i got a 1:1 copy of op. But its just that, a copy. What/how do i study?
Is it true that you shouldn't study from photos as the photos has camera distortions.
I read this on concept art.
It seems like you're probably encountering the same problems I encountered. A course of action you should take at this point is to stop drawing from photographs. For now, at least, and focus on life drawing. This could mean getting a mirror, or attending a long-pose drawing class, or going to the library/cafe, or ordering an Asaro Head, or a skull. Or all of them, why not?
The photo is kind of an optical illusion. The camera isn't nearly as powerful as a human eye, and thus you are going to get all kinds of weird distortions that you wouldn't get with study of a real-life head. Somebody on this forum said something to the effect of "the brain doesn't recognize what it doesn't notice". You may recognize a face in that photo (well duh, but you know what I mean), and notice similarities across different photos of faces, but their optical illusion-like distortions will prevent your brain from really learning retaining anything more substantial than the skill of copying (not bad in itself, but you need more). With life drawing study you will be able to memorize and learn all the physical 3d structures that you may not notice in a flat photograph.

>camera distortions.
This and the unnatural lighting in a lot of photos I see people 'study', translating 3D forms into 2D is always going to be better than replicating 2D forms. The problem is that if people didnt study from photos whats the alternative? Life drawing sessions aren't exactly easy to attend all the time given time and money constraints.

Pick one thing and focus on that. Could be: construction, values, colour, edges, or something else. Really focus on getting that one thing right, and don't worry too much about the other things. Ask yourself for each stroke you make: why it is the way it is, and if you can change it somehow to make it better. Maybe you are focusing on colour temperature, you will want to shift a colour slightly warmer or cooler or more neutral than the ref. So you start to make decisions and changing things to your needs but always basing those decisions off the source material (so you consider the forms and lighting and so on). You essentially weave design hierarchies into the image so that it works as a whole and you control where the attention in the image is. You need to have basic abilities to observe and draw/paint before you can make these decisions from a place of knowledge instead of a place of ignorance.
>>2303316
You can set up still lifes, do plein air, paint a self portrait from a mirror, get friends or family to pose, copy master paintings etc.
Also I think it's fine to study photos so long as you don't exclusively do that. You should also spend some time making sure to understand the shortcomings of photos so that when you do study one you aren't accidentally building in bad habits (or at least you can reduce it).

Great. Doesn't look like her at all, please help me

Not him but you need to read some loomis or Drawing on the right side of the brain,
Your proportions are all wrong and the result is some hideous code lyoko thing
>>2303635
you're not observing. Really look at the image, notice the shapes of value and color and try to accurately render them. Don't make anything up. Also the proportions are obviously off but don't focus on likeness too much, just really study the values first. it can help to open the reference image and just take a brush and outline/trace the shapes of color and value you see

One of my first studies. still trying to get the hang of it.

Guys, please help.
I didnt draw eyes or hair cuz i have no idea how to go about it.
Am i still symbol drawing?
Im trying to look at everything as 3d objects.
>>2303635
Symbol drawing. Second the recommendation of "drawing on the right side of the brain"
>>2304690
>Am i still symbol drawing?
Yes.
as fuck
You should step back from adding features to the face and learn how to properly construct the head and its proportions.
>>2304696
Got a book or something that can help me?
Focusing on color identification and shit.
What's a good place to get reference photos for studying purposes? Specially non-studio photos.

You're friends "jokingly" insult your intelligence all the time, don't they?

Thought I'd make it easier on myself by doing it without color, but even then I never realized how tone-blind I was.

omg it looks like a man
Wait...isn't this Connie Carter?

Trying to get better with values and overall face structure. Critique welcomed. Thanks.
>>2307121
Looks good. The right eye (on the left) seems to pop outward into a bigger shape, which can be a stylistic choice or an error. The hair lines have been done pretty well. Perhaps her forehead is a little bit too small? This is overall an excellent drawing, similar to illastrat's style, I think. Don't mess it up, move onto the next drawing and try harder. The lines on the hair work really well stylistically.
>>2292109
I give up, good night fuckers
>>2308022
the thumbnail looks perfect. Great job anon
>>2306349
Useless comment. What exactly causes it to look like a man and how can i avoid it/improve?
>>2308022
the upper body is too short and leaning too much

Pretty good so far, anon.
First time doin a study. I wish I hadn't done it in a notebook.
>>2310117
Shit. Here's it shrunk down.
>>2308069
the face and the arms are too wide, do some research into what makes features more feminine or masculine
>>2310122
Can do that. Thanks anon.
