I posted this on an art site and jokingly tagged it cat and mostly got notes from people with cat blogs.

Such is art life.

Does fan content stemming from /co/ webcomic discussion count? Because I've been working on that, trying to figure out the basics as I go.

>>92041526
Of course. The thread is pretty much "post shit you made you don't have an excuse to put in the Drawthread or Webcomic threads".

Ah, cool. I've been chipping away at a Critter Coven fancomic for the next /co thread, since I've finally got the urge to practice my drawing on my day off. I'm pretty behind on the art scene, admittedly, and I'm not even sure that practicing the style of a hard-outline shape-based webcomic isn't just procrastination of a different kind, but I feel pretty good just drawing.

That said, if anyone has critique, be brutal. I won't improve without perspective.

Decided to actually get some work done on something that's been collecting dust on my SSD for months.

File: Gestal and Jacks At The Bar (Alt).png (669KB, 1000x1000px) Image search: [Google]

669KB, 1000x1000px

Actually I paid foolgirl/dr.strangelove to draw this but the idea's all mine and from a story

The scene where Jacks, after realizing her travelling companion is extremely clingy, decides to get Gestal black out drunk so she can have a night on the town to herself.

Of course this backfires when the bear begs not to be left alone, leading into a drunken breakdown where she admits her guilt over breaking a mugger's leg and causing him to get frostbite, and how she inadvertently poisoned another man while also destroying his shop. Jacks has done far worse but the bear's sensitive and the least she could do is give her a "there there"

Thanks! Yeah, lipstick has always looked off to me unless it's only on the bottom lip. Both lips or top lip just looks strange to me in cartoons.

There's actually nothing demonic about her, I just thought her hair looked neat with little "horns" when it's not in a bun, to really contrast to shape of the hairstyles.

She's just an extremely sweet, loving, caring mother of 2, in a very, VERY happy marriage with her giant of a husband. But as nice as she is, she's also very emotional: Her protective nature of her family and friends comes with mental exhaustion and a short temper. As easy as she is to anger she's easy to calm; a kiss from her love, a hug from her family or friends, or just a nice tip at the diner she works at can easily lighten her mood.

She, her husband and her son have strong, cartoonishly Australian (or maybe more cockney?) accents, while her daughter (pic related) only developed some short-form speech patterns (not pronouncing the "g" in "ing." I.E. "pronouncin', endin' " etc.)

Yeah, she has a lot of nice and sharp features. Makes her all dainty lookin', but I guess it does give her a bit of a devious look too, huh?

No because I can't seem to grasp the concepts of digital art down even though I've been doing it for years.

I'm still using Paint SAI like a poorfag, I tried pirating photoshop but I was overwhelmed with all the customization. I don't understand multiply layers, I don't understand brush settings, it's all so complicated and it's just another hurdle on top of mustering the motivation to draw in the first place.

I picked up my old bamboo fun about a month ago after completely ignoring and hating it for ~5 years. Then I checked out a few "ctrl paint" videos on YT and it sort of clicked.

Here's some stuff I've done since I picked it up.
Still very much a noob when it comes to digital drawing, tho. Only work with the most basic parts of the program when it comes to brushes, layer styles, and other cool photoshop effect shit.
Also worth mentioning that I've drawn quite a bit with traditional media, and have used photoshop for not-drawing for a few years..

>>92041887
Is that a fucking shoebill?
If so it would be the first cartoony shoebill i have ever seen

>>92044150
why not just study traditional painting? what difference does digital tutorials make? I think most digital paintings look dull.

>>92046204
While that's still a good idea the tools are different so it might require some different thinking in some specific areas when applying it to a digital surface.

>>92046204
Not having to literally watch paint dry?
There is viability to all sides of the craft.

Convenience, all you need is a computer and a tablet.

With traditional paint you need canvases, different brushes, paint tubes, etc. and you have to be more painstaking about it, you can't easily do things like copy+paste or resize/transform. Making spontaneous changes to your work isn't always possible. Not to mention when you do fuck up you not only wasted time but also actual money considering stuff like acrylic costs like a gorrilion dollars a tube

When it comes to lipstick for me, the bottom lip has the most lipstick while the top should just be a slightly thicker upper like with the lipstick color.

Unless you're exaggerating it for a bimboish character or a kanker sister style kiss.
Then again I have a lipstick fetish so I probably pay attention to that stuff more.

So this is somewhat reminiscent of that shot from the Samurai Jack intro. Even though it's more of an atmospheric thing instead of a direct redo I'm not sure what else could be done with it outside of the longer animation it's going into. Making the rain a faster framerate would hurt the atmosphere I'm trying to build.

When it comes to painting skin it depends almost wholly on the style of the artist but both of those look sickly.

>>92050725
Telling anyone to use dodge and burn is a terrible idea. It's usable in situations but it's most often used by 12 year old weebs that don't know how to color mix.

>>92050729
This person with their 'mine is better' is full of shit. The original is better. Not great but that nasty grey pink is terrible. On it's own. It might work in a very specific lighting but there's no context to why they did it that way.

I didn't post any examples because OP seemed to be asking for brushes rather than color theory but I guess I'll post some for others.
I'm having a problem getting the website I have most of these kinds of things stored on to load so here's someone's painting process. I'll try later.

Not to mention in this one they say ONLY use pinks and reds which is completely false even in neutral lighting. There is blue in veins and in depiction of facial hair. There's yellows in the forehead.

This artist isn't the best but they get the point across.
