if you are legally posting at this site its already too late

Age is an illusion, age is abstract. The only thing that matters is how much time you put into it.
If you lived forever would you think that because you're 200 years old it's too late?

Floating heads, usually dudes. Futa. Lineart, no rendering or color. That's the shit I doodle when I'm not feeling up to pushing myself.

Beginner Thread
Because we should not have to make new threads or post in draw threads with our fundamental exercises. Feel free to post even the smallest exercise you have done to show you are still trying, do not give up.
Do not forget to resize and crop your images before uploading them. 1kpx is fine.

Questions go in the QUESTION THREAD
This is for posting studys & getting critique.
>Thread study: Since nobody seems to draw people, lets just go back to animals.
TRY TO BE MORE ACTIVE AND GIVE PEOPLE SOME FEEDBACK - there are many studies left unreplied, which is bit sad and can be quite demotivating for the people that try their best to improve, but are left directionless.

Post your current drawing here and give constructive critique to others!
Please make sure your posted image is clear, downsized to around 1000 pixels wide, rotated to the correct orientation, and that any unused space is cropped.
If you want critique on a drawing from the previous thread, you can delete it there and repost in this one.

Post em now.
Rules:
-Do not rate or give critiques unless if the artist specifically requests it.
-If someone is RUDE tell them to not expect much from an hour's work.
-Posting WIP's, studies, "doodles", and random sketches are highly encouraged.
-The art must be fresh. Like you just drew it in the past hour.

This is for posting studys & getting critique.
>Thread study: This one is rather advanced because its quite likely people here struggle even with a basic head drawing, but its nice to branch out sometimes. Try doing some different expressions, maybe fill a whole page with them -> simplyfication is the key for quick skecthing, capture what makes the expression unique.

Would drawing images from anatomy books then trying again from memory count as a good exercise? Doing that with Bridgman Drawing from Life.
>>
>>2311900
No. Focus on getting proportion right with your drawing first. Don't forget to match the background value as well otherwise your subject's value will be off. For hair, focus on the whole thing by squinting hard. After squinting the value is about as dark as the background and only slightly lighter than her hoodie. The only light part appears at the top, not the individual strands on the side.

Why don't we draw lips?
Does it add too much detail to that specific part of the face in comparison to the rest? Is it because the lips aren't so much a form as a color change?
I have this horrible habit of wanting to add a bottom lip to my drawings and it makes my characters look pouty or just plain retarded. This has been happening less and less as I catch myself, but I think it's just from growing up feeling that when you draw a girl you have to draw the lips.
>>
>>2308206
I think its because it has too much of a contrast when the rest of the face and body isnt shaded and it just ends up looking bad.

You didn't say how far apart the dates had to be.

>>2286559
definite improvement on the lines but the wheels perspective are off on both.remember the minor axis of the ellipse points towards the vanishing point, along the line of the axle
dates can be as far apart as you like

They're a really nice introductory resource to digital art, I find. The videos often lack depth but has really good breadth, and he's generally pretty succinct and says what needs to be said in 5-10 minutes. Generally his advice is pretty reasonable too.
>>
>>2317453
Good. He is the only resource I've found that actually tells you how to use photoshop properly. I bought his first package and in one of the series he goes through how he made a digital painting from start to finish, It is nice to see the process.

Post comparison.

It's probably because you're using sketchy lines and messy draftsmanship to hide your poor drawing skills, but I can't know unless I see a comparison.
