How do you guys get yourselves to do actual complete works?

For too long now I haven't been able to break through incomplete sketches. After like an hour, I just stop and couldn't get back at it

Is there like some sort of practice which increases your drawing endurance?

>>2520761
I also felt that something was wrong with the face but can't put my finger on it. Just because something looks off doesn't mean that I haven't been studying loomis for years and own the books.

The breasts look saggy because of my not understanding how to do the sweater correctly, as I think I made it too baggy. If you look at the flesh body I drew under it the breasts are actually quite perky.

Again thank you for your critique and I am not arguing because you are wrong, just to try and gain more insight into what I did wrong so I can grow from it. Thanks.

You mean human eyes? I guess but I don't really see the connection between animu eyes and human eyes.

>>2521480
animu eyes are flatter, yes.

but by doing it you'll get knowledge of how eyelids, eyebrows etc work so you'll have easier time drawing it from various angles and making different expressions

it'll also let you try different styles easier because you'll know which part goes where

why is her left leg so thin? her pose isn't clear, it's hard to see what's happening with her left arm, and at first i couldn't see that it was her hand holding the bat and the bat wasn't sticking in her neck. you're not drawing through your shapes, the figure looks retarded under her clothes. the colours are pretty awful .

as for spock, it looks unfinished, the colours are lifeless on that too, work on being able to do a good drawing before going into painting.

tl;dr - git good before you try to sell stuff.

Hi I'm kinda new to this whole art thing. If I want to dedicate myself to drawing fanart from anime all the time, and I see people prefer seeing other artists draw characters in their own style instead of the original one...

Is it really that bad or low of me to just copy their styles (the eyes, nose, proportions used etc) and I'll just add my own choice of line weight and coloring style? I'm thinking of just improvising in proportions if I can add something that would suit me (such as boys from manga drawn as kids in the creator's style, then make them more bishonen/attractive to girls in my style).

>>2523477
I mean I guess you could but then it kind of defeats the purpose of "Fan art".

Well initially I thought I could draw my favorite characters in different scenarios with whatever story/idea/AU I can come up with, while copying close to the creator's style as much as possible, which is the main reason why I want to do fanart.

I see a lot of pixiv art and those that do have the most ratings. But I didn't know it was being looked down upon until now.

>>2523572
Well I mean as long as you aren't actually tracing over stuff and changing a few things I guess it is okay. Just do whatever you want man.

>>2522288
>chicken scratch
Your first problem. Better get to working on those lines if you plan on scanning shit. Maybe you should draw a sketch first to get an idea of what you're planning on drawing before actually drawing it so your lines don't get to be so indecisive. Also get a softer, thicker lead so you don't have to do your lines over to achieve certain line weights; otherwise, you're only make it scratchier and therefore shittier.

>>2523646
that isn't chicken scratching

Advice welcome. I'm moving away from realistic drawings and thought I'd dip my toes into a different style. I think realistic drawings have made my creativity rigid. I feel that shows throw my drawing.


I don't like the mouth or the eyes. I think I really could have changed the placement of the facial features and added more stylisation- perhaps larger lips and varied sized eyes.

I mean it looks good overall, but I think the way the tree breaks is a little off. She's going from the middle of the trunk, so do it like a cone. She obliterates whatever is at the center, and it just sort of gets less and less the wider the cone is. Which means that tree top is coming down on her head.

Sorry bud, but it's not a trace. If you actually compare the attached reference pic here to my drawn version, you'll see a bunch of small changes and differences of proportion. My version looks good but it's not faithful enough to be a trace.

People have been using reference photos for hundreds of years and portraits specifically can be near exact replicas of their subjects. I've gotta say that if you can't discern the little differences in my line drawing from the original, then I think that says more about your skill level than mine.

>>2525298
Is this a joke?

>>2525308
No. I'm tired of having my work labeled as traced just because I draw well, and I'm salty as shit, fully admitted. I really don't understand how people can't tell freehand just by looking at the variances.

I can tell it's not a trace, nice linework. I wish mine looked that clean.

I think people just tend to assume anything referenced from animu is traced because that's what the majority of shit artists who think they are mangakas do nowadays. The very first drawing I was ever proud of was a shitty trace of Zoro from One Piece I did when I was in like 6th grade, but damn was I happy with it... Until someone called me out on my shit and I realized that you can't say art is really yours unless you change something about it. I can see what you changed though, the hair looks very different and some other details. Looks nice. Color it.

But you may as well have just traced the image, right? All that's really different is the hair and the facial expression, and even then it's only marginally. Like what's the point of the drawing? Can you draw something of similar caliber without basically copying an already existing image 1:1?

>>2520805

thx op I cum on cat then she hiss at penis

>>2525382
Nope. I'm not a creative artist at all, just a technical one. I like to draw and I'm proud of the skills I've developed because I've worked hard for them. I always post my references and make it clear that the concepts I use are not mine. I waste my time freehanding base sketches only because tracing is so scorned!

My question would be - why do you imply that original concepts are the only viable art form? Comic books as we know today are generally finished by an inker, and it's a respected field amongst professionals. Many types of art, portraits included, copy from reference and are still appreciated as the art they are. Different strokes for different folks... pun intended? ;)

>>2525359
Well thanks. I'm reminded why I don't usually post, but sometimes you just want to share! I'm sorry that 6yr-old-you learned the hard way about tracing. I started with realism when I was young and always thought nothing about using reference photos, until I learned that my love of cartoons applied the same way was apparently subject to different rules.

Don't feel bad about your own linework though. Most people don't spend too much time practicing that last step! I'd recommend tracing out your sketches (lol) and learning to ink on those copies. Never ink an original you're especially proud of until you know you're going to do it well.

You know, sheep; depending on most general breeds, don't have horns. Maybe refer to these as rams/goats.

>>2525629
you are mistaken my friend, while true the rams are typically the ones with horns, a ram is just a male sheep, just as a ewe is a female sheep; the term 'sheep' refers to the animal, without any regard for its gender. and a goat is another animal entirely.

4, but change the skin shadow color so it pops out a bit more. Maybe blend half way between the skin shadow color from 2 and 4, so you get it slightly off-hue but not too contrasting.

The pink background doesn't really work imo.
4 got my attention only because the foreground colors against white remind me of a jester on a playing card, which kinda works with the whole joker+jester theme.

Also that semi-transparent overlay in 1 looks really dull in gray. I'd make it use dark pink on light pink instead (eg. that dark pink from the background in 3).

Shift the hue of your colors more when swatching shadows and highlights. Don't just stick to the same hue as the base, it makes things look like wet fabric rather than adding vibrancy to your piece through warmer and colder off-hue color tones.

Good luck at the convention.
Also, classic Harley Quinn any day.

Anon, I can relate a bit because I'm somehow very good at copying and referencing things and always have been... difference is I never felt proud about it. As a kid people would tell me how well I'd draw and I'd just feel guilty - things haven't changed now.

People are telling this for you. Do you really feel happy and fulfilled knowing you just copied something that isn't yours? The feeling of creating something from scratch is completely different. Sure having references and knowing how to analyze is important, after all that's how one learns how to draw, by learning how to see, but there's a middle ground in there.

Some people call me Bleach-fag because on many occasions I want to drink bleach because I cant draw but do it anyway

>>2526054
something unique and easy to remember.
kairoboingno is impossible to remember and kyle is too vague.

Learn from MalDraw ,he established his artist handle pretty well just look at the google search results for his artist handle. Literally started less than a year ago.

>>2526054

I'm a fan of your work but just a small nitpick, the shadow of the raised elbow looks off somehow, as if it doesn't follow the form correctly. I feel it flattens the arm.

>>2526054
Other artists from /ic/ that have a good artist handle as far as i know of other than Maldraw are thdark and keppok.

BBC chan comes quite close but that handle is pretty vague as well but at least his stuff is easier to find than yours.

>>2525842
I guess it just depends on your goals and focus. I'm not a professional artist and I've never been interested in becoming one. I have never sold my work nor accepted commissions, so I don't usually consider my preferences an issue.

For me personally, I enjoy the repetitive and soothing nature of technical work. Perfect shading and inking for hours. Doing the creative aspect takes far more thought and effort and pretty much ruins the whole point of why I draw - to relax! I realize that I'm the minority in this but I've never understood why. Some people just love to color, I like to ink.

Ideally I would form a casual relationship with other artists and just ink their work directly, maybe toss around ideas or be allowed to change things here and there without offending someone. I miss co-drawing with people for fun, just to see what we can do.
