Check out my art, guise.

A boy falls in love with a girl. He is mysteriously gifted with her phone number. He calls her and finds out that she likes him as well. But the next day, she doesn't remember the confession. The girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn’t exist in this universe at all. She is the girl’s alternate universe counterpart, who likes his own alternate self. Hijinks ensue as the two tell each other their darkest secrets to conquer the hearts of their other selves.

>>92501601
i think what bothers me about the way this looks is that only a few parts are moving at a time

i think you can achieve a much better overall look by doing a lot fewer frames but redrawing the whole eye each frame, and with more exaggerated and eased movement

only the pupil, inner iris (if you were to draw one) and the shine should move, the outer iris I don't think should be moving or being redrawn at all. layers are your friend, and I think that will help give the eyelid a more believable feel.
the way it looks right now, it doesn't feel like the eyelid is on top of the eye and moving up out to reveal the eyeball, but instead the whole thing feels like one abstract shape morphing

>>92501578

This is a little clip of my first attempt at making a longer animation, well at least longer than the low frame loop gifs i usually make

when i finish it i think ill use it as a little introduction video or opening to one of my webcomics

im keeping things as simple as possible the next part im going to animate is the orange guy running so i can use simple parallaxing and tiny animations for the rest of the video

it should end up similar to this if i do it right

The criticism in these threads is so wildly inconsistent it's no wonder why nobody posts in them anymore.

>>92501874
There's a few assholes in these threads that just say mean shit lately. He can't tell you "how". He just wants to shit on people because he had a bad day.

Like the faggot in the wecomic thread asking people when they'll give up making comics and do something with their lives.

Or the asshole up top telling people to second guess their art as if they haven't for fucking hours already.

>the poses up top are a fair bit stiffer than the ones on the bottom

They're not wrong in a sense though. If you talk about your ideas or post your content it's proven that you can get enough satisfaction from WiPs to feel like you're done and not want to continue. It's more true for stories or comic work but it's still true for art.

You're better finishing a piece and setting it free. Unless you're trying to get insight into character design, a portfolio piece, or you have consistent anatomy problems someone can point out, most improvement you're going to make will be your own. Not anything anyone here says.

I use the thread to dump tips and occasionally post stuff to keep it going.

What are you expecting other people to give you here? They're typical practice. The point is to do these things a lot then use what you got out of it to make art.

>>92509923
That's not gestures.

I have characters that people often commission me to draw because they like them. Whatever. It's money. It's often wildly out of character and usually porny. Also whatever. Occasionally I'll get people that seem to think that I like to draw my characters doing these ridiculous things and want my input into their fascinating ideas or want me to write dialogue for their scenarios "Since I know the characters."

I don't want to turn my money fountains away by telling them I don't like their ideas. How would you deal with these situations with tact?

>>92511317
I assume you do lots of things with these characters outside of commissions - draw a clear line between your official work and commission stuff. It's kind of tough if you've already set a precedent for wacky porn stuff - I dunno, it depends on how much you want/need the money, really. If you have room to be picky, maybe politely decline some of the more "out there" stuff and stick with stuff that's at least somewhat in-character. Though it's tough to be a prude when you're already doing commissions for this kind of stuff so honestly if you've dug yourself too deep already I'd just grin and bear it.

How long did you spend on each? And since these aren't gestures, have you considered them?

>>92507941
I'll try, but it's not like they're going to look all that different. I've decided what these three look like already, with the facial differences (nose and eyes are similar, but not the jaw, the chin or the eyebrows, or even the eyes actually), but I'm not talented enough to make them really consistent AND with actually different facial features, my style is a lot manga-ish and that means that I have a simple style, and a more cartoonish design, with more exaggerated traits, is out of what I want for the comic. I'm a very limited artist, but I promise I'll try to make them distinguishable.

Here's a dump of "how to art" stuff.

I haven't looked at it in much detail so I don't know how shit/good it might be, but I might as well bump the thread with it.

Now that you have the gesture stuff down, work on translating that into a finished drawing without losing any of the energy. As a general note on references: get creative with where you're getting them, everybody using the same sources is probably unhealthy in the long run.

>>92514149
All I can suggest is being careful you don't make the design too complex as you go along. Looks great otherwise.

>>92517685
The backgrounds work perfectly the way they are. The only thing I see is that center walkie-talkie, which has been stylized so much that it's kind of grotesque. Everything else is aces.

Well alrighty then. These are just a quick few doodles that I've been doing here and there. Trying to work on eyes and faces.

>>92518980
A good piece of early advice is to try being less careful when you draw, worry more about carving out a shape with lighter lines. You're going to make a lot of bad stuff, but you'll also learn to trust your hand more and eliminate the middleman between what you're thinking and what gets on the page.

ah! okay, cool! thank you!
should i tone down the angle-ey ness of the walkie talkies, then?
(cool art by the way, black and white ink person)

>>92519155
So you're saying that I should worry about figure drawing first. Such as getting the actual model down instead of putting in detail?

Would you be able to give an example?

>>92519573
I think that top corner's the only problem. It's kind of flying out into space. The other walkie-talkies are fine.

>>92498570
read it, pruddy gudd but the updates feel really short, almost lackluster

>>92519833
More just getting comfortable with drawing altogether, since that's the first thing you should tackle. Your lines are thick and stiff and it's obvious that you're being really careful about what you're doing, because you're new to it, only you should really loosen up and let your hand feel its way around what you want to do. Like someone said earlier, it's a really hard thing for somebody to do when they haven't been drawing for a while, because at first everything is going to look like total shit, and your brain will be telling you that you aren't getting any better so the whole cycle shuts down and people quit.

Since you're just starting, focus on what's fun, but push yourself each time you go to do something. Being good isn't nearly as important as getting better. Doodle fast and loose and don't be afraid to look up something if you need to know what it looks like.

Most of it you just have to learn through sheer experience and paying attention. If you ever need to know what you should work on, it's usually what you don't want to.

slightly-angled perspective. Angled at neither the face nor the finger, but more the wrist.

Someone tell me what I could be doing better with this? Is the other arm overcompensating the depth with its smallness?

>>92518980
Think more about consistency between the pupils, if the pupils are wonky then it'll be one of the first things anybody notices. Some of the eyes, the very way you drew them also seem to be pointing in different directions. Lastly, keep the sizes of the eyes consistent as well. For that pair where you seem to have redrawn over the left eye a few times, that eye is way smaller, which may be trying to create depth but I don't know if that's what you were going for.

And is that supposed to be Scaramouche on the bottom?

>>92521712
I'd recommend getting a big mirror to act out the pose in, so you can compare it with the drawing and figure out why they don't look similar. You need to get more familiar with the different parts of the arm and their basic shapes.

They're for a series of short stories I'm working on, so they have context, but this doesn't seem like the place for writing.

>>92527154
They're nothing but gesture drawings, and by gesture I mean any rough drawing that's there to capture the motion more than anything. Unless it's just normal practice and you do a whole bunch of polished work on the side, try to finish a drawing without losing that energy.

The reference thing was just general advice to not use the same four reference sites to do figure drawing, whether or not you were.

Here's something i was sketching last night and attempting to "color".

I have absolutely no idea where to go or begin with coloring. As it may be obvious, i just kind of chose a random set of colors to work with. For tones, I tried to avoid doing greyscale shades and, instead, chose colors that were inherently darker or lighter. Does anyone have any tips for coloring? Or maybe you have a guide / resource on color that has worked well for you?

Obviously there are a lot of other areas I need to work on, but coloring is always a weird thing for me.

>>92535281
Is his head supposed to be on fire, or does it just look that way?

Colouring is tricky; it's why some people start off in greyscale to figure out the values and to define the forms and lighting.

I'd suggest starting by using the pink and the dark red (as the two highest contrast colours) to place the shades and highlights first.

Take a look at ctrlpaint.com and the video library. There are dozens of tutorials that may help with digital art.

>>92535521
> Is his head on fire
I know right? Just looks that way; I was playing with colors and thought a fire theme might be fun to try.

>Colouring is tricky; it's why some people start off in greyscale to figure out the values and to define the forms and lighting.

Yeah, that makes sense. Whenever i draw from life i always do grayscale as well to help manage the complexity.

Cecile ( the black haired one you (You)'d ) is a divorcee, because her ex-husband hunts undead.

She has full control over her body make up, and her signature move is using her fingerbones as projectile attacks.

Her special technique is when she breaks the face of a clock, time stops, the amount of seconds equal to the face's diameter.

Blah blah, JoJo Reference, I know and I'm ashamed!

Seeme (the small tiefling with the lute) is just a trickster fiend who travels the land while living on the streets. She tends to get by using parlor tricks and low level magic to compliment her petty thievery.
She also uses a shortsword in combat.

My friend suggested that there should be more stories featuring women with young boy sidekicks, so I helped him come up with his pitch for a pulp adventure that's a combo of Indiana Jones and Golden Age superheroes.

Vox Vixen & Tough Puppy, A.K.A Roxanne Robinson & Rex Tennyson

She's a glamorous all-American cryptozoologist and pilot who travels around the world in search of mythical creatures.

He's an Australian boy with an uncanny ability to understand languages who was raised by dingoes in the Outback after being orphaned.

They butt heads at first but eventually form a tight bond after many harrowing adventures.

Together they travel the world, track down beasts of legend, fight off Nazi-commies and a crazy cult, and face off against Vixen's arch nemesis...the Cougar!

I'll take that as a compliment, I guess? I should have added some context for the comic, whoops.
Someone made Pipi (the girl frog) based on a Hokkaido mossball mascot that had a weird bulge in its... lower body area. Because of how weird it looked and how its name was (marimokkori, mokkori having an alternative meaning as a slang for boner) teachers hated it. The more you know!

Needs a bit of work, but I did this last night, working on the next page now.

I'm half-way through chapter 3 of my hobbyist GN project I started in 2013, it's taking me forever because I don't know what I'm doing.

>Try to get into a profession that requires you to out yourself out there even to simply improve let alone make it

>>92508059
No, he's absolutely right. When you post something early, like a storyboard for a webcomic, an idea for a character, or a half-finished drawing and receive props for it, you're triggering your brain to feel satisfaction for your project, which in turn robs you of the drive to see it through to the end. If you already got complimented on your art or your writing, why bother finishing? Laziness begins to set in, and unless you have a strong work ethic or a deadline to complete, it's all too easy to coast on the satisfaction you've already received.

Mind you, this is different from, say, posting something early because you need criticism or advice on HOW to complete it. I mean just posting like, a step-by-step preview from sketch to color as it's being worked on for the sake of posting it. I can tell you first hand I began to lose interest in writing scripts for my webcomic when I started sharing it with my friends. I got a few good ideas out of it, but I began to lose interest in working on it. Once I learned that this was a thing that happened, I began only sharing story info with a single writing buddy for advice or input, and then keeping the rest close to my chest. Since then, I've reignited my drive to finish this thing!

TL;DR it pays to have patience, Anon.

Proportions are a little bit off, but I like the concept you have going. Keep studying anatomy, but you should also take some time to study how animals actually look when they smile, like dogs and mice and such. Just googling "Happy X" should give you a good example. I would say you're almost ready to start on your project, but the weird off-perspective cartoony faces on a semi-realistic depiction of an animal really takes me out of the art.

Redoing the arms, so the right one's being redrawn to come forward rather than go back. The human body is screwy, but I feel like life drawing's helping me slowly understand some of it.

>>92581432
Damn, that looks gnarly. The simple background is fine, especially because the character design itself has a lot going for it.
My design skills are definitely not up to snuff, but perhaps if you wanted something more stylish, you could make the gradient more choppy? Like a splatter effect or summat? I dunno- times like this are when I like to experiment.
You're doin' awesome shit, Anon.

>>92564543
This is kinda cool- almost seems like a exercise in diffusion. The perspective is a bit skewed, but it still has a simple look that works. Just as a general suggestion: the fuzzy, scratchy lines on the river and grass clash with the thick, solid lines on the trees- cool stuff though!

...oh, I also have this, but...eh. I'm not super happy with it. It's the first 'character-sheet' kinda thing I made of her when I first thought her up. Kinda toned it down a bit. Made her less THICC went easier on the spikes- more human proportions. Maybe that's more boring, but I'm still kinda learning anatomy, so exaggerated bodies aren't something I can really sell well.
Always happy and willing to take suggestions, though.

>>92582342

Whoa nelly, thats a whole lotta demon hot ass!


But yeah, i feel the updated version looks better, and cleaner, obviously. Although i do like the arm spikes/claws, maybe make them retractible?

>>92583435
Yuh! I like booty as much as the next guy, but I suppose this is just an exercise in restraint.
And yeah, still toying with it, retractable spikes might be a good way to handle it. The claws are something I'm incorporating for sure.
Thanks, Anon. Just gotta draw more. In general.

>>92583984
Art is a lot about practice, so drawing more is always a good thing!

And on the matter of butts, i feel both designs manage to hit a point where its tastefully sexy (as in 'its there, but its very clear that its not the point of the character', not entirely sure how to express this, but i hope you get the idea).

Best of luck man.

Unrelated, I drew someone's OC from here before and thought it worth posting again.

>>92586125
It's an ambiguous bulge. I've checked with a lot sources, they mostly say it's not a boner and if they do call it that, it's in jest.

>>92586125
>>92586972
Also the bulge is there for a pun
Marimokkori is an anthro mossball, so his name comprises of marimo (the word for mossball) and mokkori (bulge)

>>92586131
Yeah. It's a difficult middle ground to get at. Backgrounds can really be an exercise in design sometimes. Less IS more, though...so perhaps the gradient suffices?

...and yeah, I like the big, broad arms, too. It has a clear, physically imposing visual, but...yeah, I also don't want it to come across as a crutch while I learn more proper anatomical forms. Still experimenting, though...perhaps there's room for both. An anon suggested retractable spikes. Perhaps if they're retracted the arms thicken up? Who knows!
Also that's a cool-lookin' fur-demon-beast. I hope whoever that was for was happy!

Nigger employers want the people who care the most. I've seen people with somewhat lesser talent get hired over more talented ones because they wanted the job more.
