I really like the way this turned out. I am in fact blinded to its flaws by my joy that I have made a nice-looking picture. Please, shatter my illusions.
Nekomimi Moodo des!
Mouth is a little odd, lines are a little sketchy/messy, there is absolutely no detail on the chest below the collarbone... But for the most part, I like this picture. The problems with it are only small and can be fixed easily.
Good start, but you need to work on the anatomy.Lightsource anyone?I guess that you made that in photoshop?Just too big brush there. I go with a 7px basic brush with 95% hardness, drawing most often on a 2000x3000 canvas, resizing it if needed.

This might be a bit belated, but thanks for the anatomy reference.
How is this? I'd really like help with lighting, if someone could give me some tips. I kind of just randomly shade. :/ Redline would be muchly appreciated as well, thanks.
Her left leg is really messed up. It looks like it was broken inwards.
>>4872 Year 1995 called and wanted his gif. compressed color pic back.
Randomly shade=very no.This a really confusing redline because of me trying to redline both clothing, skin and bone structure.Personal opinion is that lifted shoulders would give little better feel into it.You put her hips too low. fixed it.Head looks ok, though I donät like the pupils, they look too stylized.Hair back on her head would be nice, if she's not bald there of course.

>>4874I actually save in bmp's, but iichan doesn't accept those.>>4875It's not confusing - thank you. The legs really helped.
>>4881jpeg > All
Try *.png
>>4882Jpeg isn't always the best option.Every format has an useful meaning.Gif. has limited colors but no artefacts when used right way. Jpeg has the artefacts. Png is HUEG but has a nice interlace option.BMP. is a cruel hueg raw hi-quality(?) format.etc. etc.
Well, what do you think of this? It's a character from a story I've been working on (doing a crappy drawing is a good way to slack off from writing) and I want to know what people think, how to improve it, etcetera, etcetera. The big vein looking things are supposed to be burn scars, but I don't think I pulled it off.
>>4865And some people start from 1%talent and 99%practice like me. Plus the 20% useful critique.Pic: 3years old drawing comparing to a fresh wip(that I never got to finish).

>>4867Not hiding them.My hand anatomy isn't perfect, but that doesn't have to mean that i'd hide them for that.Just thought that having her hands behind her would look cuter.Critiquing? go ahead.

OP here: My power's been off for a while, but I guess if the thread is still going I might as well ask for critiques on some other work.It's very crooked, but at least of that crookedness comes from having to use a camera instead of a scanner.

>>4876 What the hell with all those silly hiraganas?Whatever, Shoulder-Hip ratio is plain wrong, even if it's a male, he should have some more hip.Arms too long, feet too short.Everything is pretty much built up from classic tastless clicés like the scars, wings.Beltssssssssssssss, Nomura is pleased.I recommend getting a scanner, they don't cost much anymore. Or a tablet for direct drawing on pc.(cheap models for starters go at 30,-)

>>4877To add:Fingers too short and thumb is missing one joint.Btw, where's his other arm?
>>4877it's not hiragana, it's a cipher I made, I make no excuse for the cliches.I actually have a tablet, but my pen is broke and I need to buy a new one.couldn't draw the other hand because it was covered in notes. For a long time I've had a habit of making technical notes on drawings, specifying colours, telling the function of things, that kind of stuff.I'm surprised no one pointed out that it looks like the arm is broken

Well.. some sketching I did... I am not very good yet...
What's everyone's deal with fucking porn? Draw some fucking violence. SHIT!
Hell... It's what's happens when you draw and roleplay at the same time..
PROTIP: Drawing porn or violence doesn't make you better or more respectable.OP's style is nice tho. Keep it up.

Oh hay guiz, every so often, i partake in this furry RP forum, (see link) and i thought i'd make some sketches of my character. are they bitchin' or what?
second one!
third, and final one, chaps. well, are they awesome, or are they awesome?
tell me what i should fix <3
This one worries me... Your not planning anything, are you?The torso needs work, along with the shoulders.

Nice tie you got there..What should you fix? Draw sumthin happy!^_____________^The hand looks stiff, it's the fingers. Can't do much about that now I guess. You can however add some more shading to the dress to bring out the shapes, the lack of shading currently makes the picture look kind of flat. Not to say that isn't consistant with the rest but anyway. Every step in the right direction is a good step.

bleedy girls are hot. thnx <3
Is this okay? I need some help with the penis...I'm not sure how it would look from this side. Can I get a red line or something please?
Unless he's a freakish mutation with a foot-long schlong, the woman's hips would obscure it from view.
I'm not so sure that's a woman and that the visible penis belongs to the behind guy, lol@Op, there is soo much wrong here, and the penis is one of the lesser problems tbh. Care I to elaborate? Nay

>>4830 Yes, go ahead.
>>4830
Yes, go ahead.
>>4831Go ahead with what?
I hate it when people waste any kind of artistic talent on something so stupid as hentai.
>>4833I totally agree but in this instance there is a startling lack of talent to begin with. You could however go and have a stab at the OpenCanvas-board. I puke and lol in equal measures every time I poke my head in to see if they have produced something apart from porn.
Ever had the feeling to draw whatever comes to mind and never be able to stop until you're so sleepy that can't see clearly but still try to keep on going?
the artist looks familiar :0
>>4546Hmmm, how? This is my first drawing posted on this board.
>>4547, it looks a lot like, uh, >>4546's style...I am confused.

Yes. What happens is your eyes begin to blur uncontrollably
I meant off the board

What kinda pens do you guys draw with?Everything looks a lot cleaner than my sketches :(Special pen or computer edit?

HI.

i like the way you coloured it, and it'd be better if you didn't have the extra lines
I think the head needs to be a bit longer, right now it looks squashed down.The body on the other hand needs to be less stretched.That's all I can think of right now, other than that, pretty good.
I won't criticize on how the body is done because I am not sure if you are trying to use style or try to be anatomically correct. There is a good color scheme going on and you have limited yourself on which colors to use. This is good for setting an emotion on the drawing. The bottom half is lacking, there's too much negative space. What can be done is probably crop the bottom edge or continue the drawing of the dress up to the end of the dark shape.

i apreciate them.
ups, i forgot the pic....
>>4755Awesome effects!What technique did you use for the lighting and texture?
>>4756oh, thank you.for lighting i copied the image in a new layer, used desaturate, put layer property at lighten, and used gausian blur on that layer until i like the lighting, i think this is called angelical glow, but i´m not sure. later i used noise filter until i like it.

This is gorgeous. I don't know how good your artistic abilities are, but I wouldn't change much.
If this is some of your first art then it's great. You should focus on practicing anatomy and draw some from life. And when you do you should try to build an understanding of what you're observing and recreating so it sticks in your head better.You might have potential if you also have an interest in making art and the patience to build your abilities.If you're in to this shit I suggest you start a sketchbook on www.conceptart.org/forumsIt's a great place to grow as an artist.

I agree that you should study anatomy anyways if you are an artist. It would only improve what you already have here. However, what you've made here is a bit different, and doesn't necessarily need to reflect true anatomy.You seem like the type of person that has raw talent, and you just need to learn how to use it. And even though I would call what you have created anime, it is definintly unique. Honestly, I think it is quite beautiful. A little ruff around the edges, and a lot to learn, but you have great potential.

Not too hard.Nose needs to be slightly more centered, I think, and perhaps some work done on the far cheek.

>>4720 Possible redlines or something? I just can't get it look right.
Yeah not too hard, here's sum MSPaint redlining with mouse lol#1Eyes moved up to align with shape of face, slightly altered shape to align with side-view. Eyebrows moved down to align with the downward facing.#2Neck too thick, even if it's a boy, wasn't consistant with the gentle features of the face. Neck was also too long. I mean srsly come on?#3The ear, look at some ears dude..Hope dis elps
