nothing to do with shading, it's just the brain's facial recognition getting messed up because the features are out of line.

similar effect in my image

if you choose to play video games (at this amount) over drawing then do you genuinely want to do art

Yes I do, every now and then I get that pic related feeling. Im not that into games, stopped playing for half a year now. but when a particular game gets my attention, in this case smt apocalypse, its guaranteed that I will pour hours into it until every content's explored. G-guess ill be away from drawing for a week or two.

Are you bipolar

You're retarded

Two options-

Either get comfortable enough to sketch directly onto your final paper with minimal erasing, because there's only so much abuse the paper can take. Learning how to sketch very lightly helps with this, and then increasing your pressure for lines that you're confident in.

Or when you trace with a lightbox you have to preserve the integrity of the original sketch, don't just trace mindlessly over your lines, you have to keep the energy there while eliminating the messiness.

I do both, when I draw using references I usually just go directly onto the final paper (saves time tracing) but when I draw from imagination I use a lightbox because it takes me longer to get it right, and the sketch is usually messy.

I can't critique something so shit looking, sorry

>>2920914
i honestly don't know how to critique.

sorry

It's nearly marketable. Draw more.

As a lover of moving things and especially tentacles I have to say that your tentacle creature is poorly executed. Not much motion in it.

Also this is my first time trying to color my sketch

What a coincidence, just yesterday I was doing a tutorial on head construction. Try them all and settle for one, or even better, make up your own.

Draw big but not too big and be mindful of the parallel lines in perspective. Other than that, it's just about mileage. You'll have to use refs for a while, so don't expect any masterpieces too early in the process.
Learn Reilly abstraction too, while you're at it.

>>2919750
>Can someone suggest a better method that is retard proof and that allows to build faces that are relatively attractive?

Try approach that sinix has, basically he doesn't draw on sphere, but "masks" which are faces based on the cylinder (half of it to be frank) and the rest of the head he constructs with box.

He argues that in this way face head looks more organic and I agree. I would also advice you to look into Reilly method, I personally find it a lot better than Loomis stuff:

I'd recommend getting the magazine with advertisments and people there and draw the planes of the head/Reilly rhytms on the faces of people.

Loomis construction is legit, your issue is probably how the head attaches to the neck.

>>2919817
faggot trying to reinvent the wheel

>>2918386
Yes.

>>2918386
Considering that even elephants and monkeys have made works of art, no.

>>2918386
Unless you're actually retarded, no.

Depends what kind of style you're going for. If you're going to do art where line work is part of the final piece, look into Lazynezumi. Or use something like CSP for the linework. Otherwise, it doesn't matter.

>>2910771
Try not to use crutches, it's perfectly possible to do good lineart in PS after a bit of practice.

>>2910814

Stabilizing software is not a crutch. It makes linework feel more like working with physical media, not less.
Photoshop can't do clean digital inking all that well because it fundamentally has a flawed brush engine that struggles with long flowing strokes with a nice crisp taper. I don't care if you take the best inker in the world; he's still going to produce better looking linework in Clip Studio than in Photoshop simply because he is working with a superior tool. Yes, you can make nice looking drawings in Photoshop. Particulary if you work with a rough line art kind of style. But super clean inking is best done in other software.

I was asking me the same, thanks for make the thread.

Anyone has any of the Real Action Pose books?

>>2889695
Is it worth it? I preordered Hyrule Historia at the time and loved it. But A&A seems like it has all the art I've already seen (at least in the pictures I've seen of it).

>>2890139
There are a few pictures not shown ever before, but it's mostly enemy designs from the early games and things like a better look at side characters from Twilight Princess.

The breath of the wild stuff is what sucked the most, as it is no concept art at all, just promotional images we've already seen printed on really nice paper. I'm sure they're saving it for an official BotW Artbook.

I don't regret getting it though, it's pretty comfy to look at how the art progressed through out the series.

Getting better at controlling edges is a byproduct of getting better at understanding form

>>2919637
Alla Prima insists a lot on edges, try reading that

>>2919637
>How do I get better with edges?
Paint from life more and analyze master paintings way way more.

>Are there specific tutorials for that kind of stuff?
Probably, but I would be wary of a tutorial on it since how you treat edges is very personal to your style. There's obviously a few general "rules" like soft objects (fur, clouds etc) are softer, and form shadows on rounded objects are softer than more sudden plane changes, but still these "rules" have been successfully broken many times. In general, more soft edges makes something more dreamlike and painterly, and a lack of soft edges brings a solidity or graphic quality to an image. Probably you will not be in anextreme of one or the other but will look for a balance of soft and hard edges, keeping in mind it is not a binary thing but rather a spectrum (like values are not just black and white but there are lots of greys).

As another anon mentioned Alla Prima has a chapter on edges, but iirc it mostly says to just observe them carefully and paint what you see, and squint to help group things.
