Sometimes she's the only thing in my mind
>>2283072
She looks like a demon.
She doesn't feel the same way about you the way you feel about her. You're wasting your time familia.
If you spent more time drawing instead of tugging your dick to her facebook photos you might be in with a shot.
How do you guys draw when you go to a live drawing session?
As far as I know there are 2 ways to approach it, either you go full academic and only draw with planes and copying exactly what you see like you were doing a cast drawing, or you do it the Proko way where you build the skeleton based on the model and then draw over it, which I don't know how to do.
What should I be doing to improve fast? Any books or tutorials where this is explained?
>>2282908
there's no reason to draw a skeleton if the model is right in front of you, imo. that's best for constructing from your imagination. just draw what you see, that's the whole idea behind life drawing.
>>2282920
And how do I draw non-academic way? I've only been taught to draw from life like that, copying what you see, but not understanding perspective and construction.
I've started reading Figure Drawing by Andrew Loomis but I don't know how to combine methods. If I try to now draw academically the proportions are shit and the drawing looks bad.
i usually have issues with proportions from 0 to 10 how far would you rate this?
I like that you're absolutely horrible but you set up a patreon.
Symbol drawing everywhere, but hey, draw them anime girls surely you'll be the next sakimichan m8.

Man, this place is retarded. No wonder not a single one of you if even a professional artist.
>>2282539
What book is it from?
What's wrong with it? What are you even trying to say?
>>2282539
what is your complaint?
this is one of my animations i made while having a depression.... any critics?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cfdev3etOg
>>2282500
It's poorly made, you don't even know how to draw a room in 1 point perspective.
Topic is edgy and reeks of highschool.
Whole video instead of being creepy, scary and interesting is just full of badly made gore.
Your "style" is unprofessional and ugly.
It's shit, read sticky.
>>2282500
>Any critics? Thoughts?
>Give your honest view on it
>hurr durr you're just jealous post your work
not this time
>>2282526
>>2282526
That kind of language is not appropriate for critique. You are needlessly aggressive in your words, the points you make feel more like personal attacks than an evaluation of his work. Saying things like this doesn't help anyone. It is discouraging to hear people talk like this, meaning they are probably going to want to avoid critique because they will associate it with personal attacks.
OP. Read the sticky, and study fundamentals. This animation demonstrates a significant lack of understanding with regards to fundamentals.You have a very long way to go but I think you have potential.
Is there any good figure reference book like the Art Models series, but with clothes?
Why would you need a goddamn reference book for that? I know anons are autistic and all but millions of pictures of clothed humans in various poses are available literally everywhere, it's not some rare resource.

Need some critic anybody is welcome will post more if i a see interest in this post.
really good, i'd like to have more please
>>2281230
abstract art generally isn't accepted here
good or shit ?
>>2280947
anatomy is pretty decent, you have some nice details but lack some major ones which shows you don't have some anatomical knowledge that could help your piece.
The foreground and background have nice colours but the very bottom of the canvas is looking a little flat/dull.
By the look of your canvas, you are working pretty small which is limiting you, but over all pretty nice :)
I like it a lot just i'd have put more details on the face
>>2280947
question how did you get that skin tone, its good imo but im bad who doesnt know how to get flesh tones

It looks like cheap hotel artwork
Hello /ic/ I come to you with a question.
Do any of you by chance, have a tutorial on ambient occlusion painting?
Im very interested in learning it, as I enjoy the look it gives 2d art.
SO far I have found a few touch in tutorials on it, and one in Russian, that looks like it is actually very well done, I tried following it, but I don't speak Russian, so yeah...
My problem is, I'm too focused on darks as shadows, and my AO attempts just turn to shadow layers, I can't quite shake it off.
Any help would be appreciated
>>2280826
Alex Negrea has one on gumroad, it's pretty good.
>>2280838
thanks, is it worth the 5 bucks? Dont mind paying for it if it is :)
>>2280842
I think so. five bucks is basically a fast food meal, maybe you can pirate it somewhere, I don't know - I bought it. It's very long and indepth.
So recently I made a slow but sure transitions from Stickmen to Humans. And since the people here seem pretty good at art(and yet humungous dicks), I thought I'd ask you all 3 questions.
1) Which of these 4 styles do you prefer?
2) How could I improve on this?
3) Why the fuck are hands so hard to draw?

How does Kim Jung Gi draw like this?
I'm guessing he has a sort of photographic memory. If he has a photographic memory all he has to do is trace over the images he sees.
>>2279889
I think he just draws anything that comes to mind, whatever structure comes of it is improvised.
He's been doing it that way for years and that's why he's good at it.
>>2279889
He's spent thousands of hours drawing He's spent years and years building up his visual library and drawing anything and everything.
That's how.
None of what ever that bullshit is your saying.
>>2279889
what the fuck is that pic
does that happens in reality in med schools
So I want to learn how to draw porn, likely in some /d/ fashion. I know they have draw threads over there occasionally, but to get started, obviously anatomy would likely be the first place to start, right?
Also, I have a decent tablet that is waaay over my skill level, and a sketchbook that is nicely in hand as well. My goal is to become masterful on the tablet, so would I learn my fundamentals all on the notebook first, then translate them over, or would I just go balls deep on the tablet and use that alone, if that is my end goal?
Pic sorta related, I'd like to get to a level where I can achieve this sort of level of detail. Found a ton of pdfs on drawing lessons in the sticky and in a thread on here a while back, should I just burn through those?
>inb4 OP is a faggot
Probably am.
>>2279643
Not sure why it is one or the other. Do some paintings on your tablet and do some drawings in your sketchbook. Do lots of both. Buy several books on anatomy and figure drawing and copy out every drawing and draw them again from memory. Copy photos and paintings to learn to paint. Do still lifes. Go to life drawing sessions. In a few years of this if you do it right you should be able to paint an image like the one you posted.
>>2279643
Depends ow you're planning to go about starting. Learning to use a tablet is a skill in itself, but if you're going to start from the very basics of constructing lines and such, then you might as well do it on the tablet and as such learn both simultaneously. That is the major challenge of a tablet anyway, being able to correctly draw what you want, despite it's inherent difficulties such as not seeing what you're drawing on the drawing surface, and exaggeration of your movements since the tablet is probably smaller than your screen. If you've gone this far on the tablet might as well stick with it all the way through, and go on to anatomy and such.
>>2279649
I've got a few drawings I've done sitting in my sketchbook, nothing spectacular, but nothing particularly great. Hell, most of the time I was just impressed that I got something to look relatively okay by my current standards. I'll look into some books, since I'm not really all that big into electronic media as far as text books go. The sticky should have some and I'll do a little research on my own, unless you have any immediate suggestions of your own.
>>2279658
That's the thing, so far, I don't think I've put enough time into the tablet to really get the physical movements of it down, so far as getting my hand to move the way I want it to, so a lot of it is frustrating, but not impossible to overcome. I think I'm going to do a bit of both sketchbook and tablet to start at least getting the mental imagery down, but I'll try to get to the point where I can just go full on tablet. Its a long way off, but I think it'd be really cool to get to a point where I can justify spending money on one of the draw-on-screen tablets.
