cool stuff.
the left leg is kinda fucked and her right hand just disappears, maybe hind at the hand more.
the legs are also not standing on a plane that is in perspective, try to incorporate perspective into the legs.

>>2392543
start dropping the shadowin the upper part of the eyes, its looking creepy the way you have it!

>>2392696
Thanks bro, just noticed that leg issues i'll fix them tomorrow, maybe it'll take about 2 days to finish this completely, see how far can i get.

when people say study an artist's work, do they mean copy their artwork, find intricacies in their work, and then integrate what you find into your own work?

>>2393194
You basically find the pattern to how they tackle the basics. How they stylize anatomy, how they use line/colour/shapes.

Take things from their work that you really like and try to emulate that in your own work, you do not want to completely copy unless you want to compare your skill level to theirs (which is kind of disingenuous since you're not making any decisions for yourself, simply trying to be as accurate to the original as possible).

How is this?

>>2393686
I know you are trying to keep it simple but everything under the belt looks really flat.
I would show more detail in the clothing.

I also am not fond of the brush you used behind her.
Perhaps leave the background plain as it is with the stripes but hand draw some cute shapes like stars?
Also, is there a second light source coming from below?

>>2393570
Medium is important senpai but what you really are avoiding is that dank line weight issue you have, ammiright?

>>2393515
The lips are straight up symbol drawing.
You could say you haven't rendered them yet but the shape looks otherwise.
Same with the nostrils. Look at nose ref and it looks nothing like that. Where is the form?
Hands are a mess too. You need to study their mass more.
But You have colors going well. Your values aren't great but the thumb reads nicely.
Don't give up.

>>2393705
I noticed that myself lol but I was too lazy to add in more details.

i also dont recommend an outline or as much of one on her

>>2394476
chicken scratching will kill your wrist. her waste is quite long, the perspective on legs is wrong, i recommend the sticky and Beg thread.

Also, dont hide your feet because you dont get the perspective.

>>2394040
This is not cluttered compared to your previous works. Nice colors too. Pillar feels out of place.

Just wanted to share some feels.

I applied to CalArts Character Animation for the second time this year. Last year I got rejected because I made a lot of small mistakes in my observational drawings and royalty fucked up the sketchbook by minimally drawing from life. This year I took the advice of one of the portfolio reviewers I met online and cut the bullshit. I sent two sketchbooks with about 80% reportages/gestures/general life drawings and only dedicated a few pages to story ideas and cartoons. My observational drawings were purely honest with only a hint of stylization/design. I also only included one character drawing in the portfolio and that's it. I followed this persons advice 100%, sent them work frequently, and was told I was making great progress. They even said they were glad to hear I was still applying when I disappeared for a few weeks during a crazy busy semester of college.

I feel good about my progress but I weary I'll actually get in this year. I know most people shit on CalArts here a lot, but it's important to me I get in since it's really the only thing I've been focused on for a few years now. Most of my heroes went there, my friends are going there, and I'd just like to be apart of all that.

The decision comes in a few weeks so wish me luck.

The head structure is wonky (especially the chin) and her right eye gives the crossed eye look. Check your structure. I like the body.

Does her body look vertically stretched or considerably normal?

>>2395074

looks fine to me
you seem to have gotten your darks down, but perhaps up the amount lights?

>>2395074
arms seems long, the legs are rendered in a way that they dont have roudness

>>2395114
Really? I thought the upper arm including the deltoid was about the same length as the forearm, if not just a bit shorter. Idk

>>2395074
Everyone has different body proportion but your drawing has a nigger arm. It's probably the position and the size of the hand.
The torso looks really awkward to me as well. It looks like somebody punched her so hard from the top and spine got crushed a little.

Thanks!

I also noticed I need to commit to more drop shadows, for instance I tried to implement them to a give a proper volume to the left deltoid, I also changed the face a bit and fix/polish some areas of her body.

Btw I'm glad it doesn't look elongated I started using glasses for the 1st time and it feels like I'm taking crazy pills, everything looks way wider now :S

>>2395219
I know but it will be inaccurate to say I've "only" been working on this piece for weeks

>>2395285
Looks a lot better.

>>2395285
Her face and body don't share perspective. The breasts lack gravity. They shouldn't be squashed together like that in this pose.

>>2395259
this is unsettling

>>2394633

mabye.

I'm glad it helped with the body, but I'm still waiting you to modify the head more, you've draw highlights on the nose so it looks more like a pig, it's pointing upwards, that's worse than before
the eyes are improved, but the face is still designed on a box, if you push the direction of the exterior part of the eyebrows, they follow a diferent shape, and if they go up, it's more femenine
the decoration on the dress under the arm pit breaks the shape of her back, making a weird effect that you don't need

the hand should be placed a bit more closer to the arm

you might want to show her left arm ahead touching some hologram piano or something, draw the screens flat and deform them with transform>perspective, it would add meaning

push core shadows and add a soft rim light from behind
the body under the boobs might need to turn some degrees at the bottom (to the left), as right now the belly is too forward compared to the boobs

I still prefer my taste for the head/face :/ It's more kr0npr1nzt tho

The amount of self projecting butthurt is hilarious here.
However i noticed that shit-artists that draw anime/furries/some autism tend to be buttmad at some good artists posting on anonimous boards

>>2395486
theDark is a shit polisher.
Everything about his work is dull, like QC.
theres no spark, nothing interesting, its just bland shit over and over again.

>>2395486
I noticed that shitters tend to interpret any criticism towards decent artists as jealousy.
that's because you're so bad you can't even imagine someone criticising artists that are so much better than yourself.
that's why again: go home you shitter. back into the beginner thread. you only create unnecessary drama here.

He's shitposting, those looks great. The amount of details and the gestures are excellent, and don't see any problem with the expressions, they really feels alive. Keep up the good work.

You already have a professional level here, and a good one. Well, for character designing and linework at least, don't know how well you handle stuffs like backgrounds and color.

Thanks, I'm bit surprised you find her current head/face unappealing, I'm aware I could make it more "figurative" but I didn't want to break the stylized origin of the character, However I'm far from done so I will keep in mind your recommendations, I was also afraid of the back ornament detracting from the form, guess it will have to go :(

>>2396610
Nose is huge. Eyes are flat. Everything looks too symmetrical. Ears look like they're coming out of his cheeks rather than at the side of his head. That's not where clavicles go or how they work.

There's a lot that's way off man, but main thing for now would be to work on those forms and wrapping the space around them. Right now it's all very flat. Firez might be forever lost in the uncanny valley but at least he has basic forms down.

>>2396674
Still looks a bit high and far back/out. Imagine the line of them wearing glasses if that helps.

try picking a more direct/angled light sources. having it straight on tends to flatten things out. don't worry too much about converting grayscale to colour, just try experimenting a bit more. consider doing face/head studies that are well lit so you get a feel for the planes of the face and shit.

>>2396674
it's better, though maybe too far back. it's good that you're experimenting with colour!! i would maybe stay away from white and try doing studies with a coloured light source, because right now it looks fairly washed out.

>>2396572
i'm trying to figure out character design too... i would consider using broader or more exaggerated shapes, and to use those shapes to help sell your character's personality. the thin shoulders and wider hips makes it look feminine, but it could still be pushed more, i think.

>>2396610

Ears are not supposed to be that visible in frontal view, think about them in perspective. Whole image is flat, especially the hair. Shadows are weird making the hair look like its floating. The neck needs to be longer and the trapezius muscles definately dont go to the top of the neck. Moreover the values are off, you should add more darker and lighter tones, not just middle tones. I would have suggested beginner thread, but I'm not a fucking asshole, keep working I'll be happy to crit.

>>2396704
Thanks, I shifted the ear a little bit more and I think it's probably the best I can do. Next time I need to render that whole cheekbone and ear connection area before I paint any hair over it. Also yeah I'm trying to find a balance with color. I tend to start off way too over saturated so I'm trying this method of starting washed out and building into saturation. So far it seems easier for me to build up rather than tone down, but I'll try to make sure not to leave it looking too washed out. Thanks for the feedback!

Different anon here, but to be brutally honest you're quite up yourself man. Being such a cunt to beginners and shouting them to leave to the beginner thread when you're not even that competent yourself isn't a good trait.

Putting lesser artists down is a terrible thing to do. It doesn't make you look better at all, even if you use your name on here. I know of a few other professionals who lurk on here and like giving help to people who need it, sometimes just using a different phrase to explain something can help someone along the path to getting better and that's awesome. But seeking attention like you've been doing, and putting down other people who aren't even that far beneath your own level, is not a good thing to do.

I don't know if you're a hobbyist or aiming for a career, but take it from me, there are very few top tier artists out there who act like cunts. To become the best you need to understand how much you still have left to learn, which is why so many of the best are such modest people who like to help others. And from a networking standpoint, if you're an asshole, even online or on facebook or wherever, you can and will get blacklisted from certain studios.

Hope that helps you see things clearer. I look forward to the next wip.

The shadows are supposed to be like that but fwiw there are 2 shadowing schemes an overlay layer with gray tones lay down with an aliased lasso tool and other done vía a second overlay layer un which you use a huge software brush with a very desatured blue and a somewhat satured orange these two layers go above the base color ofc, hope that makes sense.

>>2397058
hey! i was a little vague earlier when i suggested picking a more direct/angled light source, but i didn't mean to just kick up the contrast, lol!! i feel that generally, when things are lit directly from the front it tends to flatten them out a bit because you don't really get to see the forms defined by their shadows.

lighting the shot so that everything reads well is important for both the audience and the artist-- the audience so they can quickly and easily tell what they're looking at, and the artist so they can more quickly and easily make decisions with their work. for example, here you have a lot of highlights all around the face. the larger highlight on the eyes is on the top right, but on the lower lip it's on the left, and it's all scattered about on the hair. it makes it look like guess work, which it very well might have been, but if you choose a better light source then there's no guesswork involved! if the light is to the upper right, then the upper right is where the high lights go. i find it also helps solve ambiguous areas like the neck, because then it just becomes a matter of a cast shadow from the head on top of the rest of the body.

and don't be afraid to go into the bright whites and the darker greys, too. putting down such harsh contrasts often scare away beginners because it won't look right at first, but once you have all the values working together they won't seem so out of place. consider running a google search for paintings that use Rembrandt lighting and doing some studies of how they handle light to clearly define the face. bonus points if the painting is actually done by Rembrandt!! here's a rough paint over for clarification, hope this helps somewhat

>>2397131
I know what you meant, i tried to address it in my own makeshift way, i figured changing the shadows on everything would be a major drag which is why i didnt do it, but since you went out of your way to help me ill make a second version of her when im done, with more hair and your crit applied.

im an idiot, its above, i cant believe you of all would accuse me of polishing a turd. i dont tell people to go beg thread out of spite/hate by the way.

>>2397475

I stated that I didnt do it out of hate either. I have eyes nose bro, and comparing my drawings to yours being the most objective I can, I have some of the basics down while you are doing beginner mistakes like making the ears face forward etc. It really is polishing a turd, I am not a guy that gets hurt over mean comments, but hey dont take my advice ask another anon to compare us.

These three are pretty much the starting point and first reason I began drawing, it gives quite a nice feeling to be able to draw them like I wanted now.

It's a good sign that people can recognize what it might be, knowing it's supposed to be based on the original.

Good stuff.

Still trying on this. Left is where I am so far, right is quick idea of where I may go with lighting, just on the face though.

Son of Gid is theorized to have shorter hair than that. Look up " prince of peace" painted by a nine year old girl

I understand what you are doing. Different anon here. If you give her legs armor or baggy pants then it will look much more butch

>>2396992
I also recommend giving her shoulders something like plates or leather so that her head significantly smaller head doesn't make her look freakish

>>2396915
I don't like how her eye wraps around her head on the right. The left one looks better.

>>2398133
Her expression is shit. Focus on defined shapes instead of that lump mumbo jumbo you are doing

Her face looks like she's mentally retarded

>>2398133
Right looks much better

The left looks extremely punchable
