I'm the guy who asked u to paint like that . I like it , it has potential. I like more rough sketches and paintings . I think the problem is that you didn't get used to the brush. Can you draw me objects with this brush ? any kind of objects ? Just studies but with the same brush

Welp. I'm extremely drunk beginner but I tried

Thank you, I can hardly say that I ever used any rough brush in my life, so you are right I am not used to it at all.

I did a still life, but I am a bit tired now, so I couldn't render it at all. Do you have any insight? Thank you in advance for all your help.

>>2385732
Thank you

>>2385751
Unify your shapes.
I'd advice any beginning artist to avoid custom/textured brushes because they add variation to your brush strokes and just makes it harder for someone starting out to keep their shapes unified and solid

>>2380720
>>2380731
thank you
>>2382041
i'm not, but I feel flattered

>>2385740
I had to consider a lot of stuff when doing each stroke (with practice it becomes intuitive and faster). In this case I focused more into overall values (squinting helps for this) and edges, which I exagerated and/or synthesized to convey volume.

it's way more complex than that of course (painting is a constant chain of problem solving), but I think the important aspects you should have in mind to get this result are: a sense of form (values and edges) and being aware of the tools you are using (the outcome of each brushstroke in this case).

I used sai and a square brush only, because I like the blending settings, although getting cleanly sharp edges is a hassle.

Those exercises that involve brush economy (paint this in x strokes or less) may help you imo desu senpai

This is a huge issue in most studies posted here.

I can't fathom why people don't simultaneously work on the background along with the figure - even if just a little bit. The background plays a critical role in defining a figure. It shows too.

To work directly on a white canvas is dead give-away of being a naive amateur.

i don't usually do this, but why don't you post your work so that all the 'naive amateurs' can learn from it?

i mean, you're right about working on the background, but you sound like a giant, pompous dick. calling someone a 'naive amateur' doesn't exactly shatter any illusions for most of the people here, like you clearly thought it would.

You are putting solid lines where there are no contours and stamping out symbolic eyes and lips where there are just regions of shadow.
The pose of the model is the most important part, if you want to draw a face use a different portrait
You have the tools for shading, just use those to define areas of light and dark instead of cartoonish lines.
