I mean I can't really vouch, but taking and using critiques I feel will really help. I still struggle in using references because a part of me thinks it's like cheating, and that you have to "git gud" by yourself.

...and that's why my rate of improvement is horrible and I will probably not get any better.

your desire to be "authentic" is rooted in nothing but illogical pride

why hamper your growth by intentionally limiting yourself when ultimately one of the goals of art is free, unrestrained creative expression?

selling copied work is an issue of copyright law-- there are no laws in art. do as you please, copy what you like, and eventually you will assimilate those ideas into your own work

really don't know what to do, and i have to use this monsters

I don't draw, just browsing boards I don't frequent often. A lot of cool, impressive stuff. But what I've noticed is stuff that seems really good gets the most responses, and usually always negative. Are most of you art majors? I'm science based and find myself thinking overly critical of other science-based work and I've wondered if it's just me subconsciously shitting on people to partly justify spending all that time and money on my degree; I'm an expert now, I need to let others know, etc.
It seems like that here, times ten.

How much do you think people with styles like this actually know how to draw realistically?

>>3042543
>art majors
God I hope not, the 'art community' you could consider /ic/ to be a part of universally acknowledges art school to be a waste of time.
However, yes I'd say that's a fair assessment, just replace art-major with self-taught. Also, it's not as though the negativity can't be helpful; but it does get absurd sometimes.

>>3042543
most of these faggots barely draw, they read one or two infographics and are eager to show off what they learned. just look at all the shitty redlines filled with tips that the "corrector" himself can barely follow

>>3042458
The girl looks better from what you used to draw, looks like improvement but the perspective is completely fucked. I cant really tell whats going on part of me thinks I'm looking at her from above but the background tells me we are nearly at eye lvl with the horizon. I think the main reason is that her calves and feet look like we look at them from the top but the rest of her body looks more like we are looking at her at eye lvl.
But don't listen to me try it out for yourself, adjust her legs a little and see if it works with the background.

>>3042530
Man you are leaving that poor man no chance. In the last one it looked like he could maybe beat them but now he is just cut in half immediately. Poor dude.
But the fact that the slim one cut him is now easy to read, at least for me, however that he comes from the same direction as the fat monster and his legs are behind the fat one kind of make a clusterfuck. Also I think it might be easier to read if you dont make him cut that dude in half so that you cant see the fat monsters leg through the mans body.
Also the cut feels unnatural because the monster comes from behind the fat monster. Maybe if the slim one was on the other side of the monster it would feel more natural. because it could reach him easier.
I can't really help you, and so probably 70% of the people here can't, we can only give you some insight on what others think, you gotta pick out the good stuff.

>There's enough competition as is, you retards can fuck off
Not really. I can sustain myself solely through art. And I do it without ever drawing porn, like a lot of artists on here tend to.

I got three routine clients that pay me monthly, two for comics, and one to design characters for him. Plus, I also get the occasional commissions from time to time for paintings and such, from people who just come across my stuff on my facebook or insta or tumblr, and just really like it. For example, pic related is something I did for a private client for $1000.

And I've done fuck all in terms of proper marketing or branding online. If you start putting your stuff out there, if people like it, you'll get commissions for stuff. The market is much much bigger than you think. Especially with private clients who just think, "oh, I'd like to hire an artist to make me a painting of X, to hang on my wall." There's a fuckton of those.

If you have a scarcity based mindset, especially one in which you believe that you gotta undermine others to sustain yourself, then you're only undervaluing yourself, cause as I see it, it's like a belief that your work simply isn't something valuable enough to retain or attract clients. I know that so long as I keep my clients satisfied, they'll keep coming back to me, and they'll spread good word of mouth to attract more clients. Simple as. If you live in an abundance-based mindset, then you'll have actual abundance in everything you set out to do.

Personally, I like to help people, and see them improve, simply cause, especially as total newbie, I understood just how frustrating it is to try and get any decent feedback when you need it the most.

Your anatomy and shading are really not good, and why not put the same effort you put into her ugly torso into her hands? They're so amateur looking.

>>3042458
This looks REALLY wonky. Her lower legs look like she's cripples, her breast looks like it's coming out of her sternum, she has a sasquatch arm, and can YOU swivel your head to a perfect 3/4 angle sitting like that? Your rendering and lines are great, but I think you should leave this drawing and start a new one, there's a lot wrong with its construction.

my lineart is super shit but i like to make it one of the focal points of my work. i can't get the flow of my lines to be nice curves. would getting a bigger tablet help or should i just get better at drawing curves? maybe both? i use a small tablet with a 4x6 active area so it might not be enough space to flex my wrists to actually draw them.

I think the issue derives mostly because the background perspective is inconsistent with the one of the body, If I were to make it more simple like a mostly top view grass field it would work better.

Thanks for the feedback

I really like the style you're going for in this. And yes, a bigger tablet with an actual screen will make a world of difference.

Needs more contrast to split up the dude from the man and the thing and the background. Nice job though.

I`m gonna get hate for this, but... one thing I've learned from these Alt/Style threads is that PS is the industry standard but out of all artists who post here the best ones work in CSP.

To take 3D render passes as comparison, you only seems to use the "rim left" one. It all feels very flat and lacks shadows and reflections. Consider studying those, it helps a lot in improvement your shading.

One other problem I see way too much Is that you put an highlight everytime there is a line. Stop this, that's not how it works at all, you're just repeating errors of others.

>>3043961
I see, thanks a lot. Also, what do you mean by this?

Why does a leather/denim jacket have so much SSS?
Why would a solid object like the helmet have SSS at all?

>>3044783
I just used it because the render passer list was fairly complete. For the SSS, I think it's like the reflection pass, It's put at max to be then used for if necessary when doing the final render. Or the guy just wanted to show how it would look, like for the normal pass.

Anyone happen to know brush settings that could simulate this sort of "low quality AA" look that Pixel's older art has? Some of it's definitely just a binary tool sort of thing, but not all of it.

I don't think it's her chest cause that seems alright, I think her torso is a bit too short. Her crotch seems a bit high up. I did a shitty redline to illustrate.

Also notice the perspective of her breasts and the sash underneath are going in different directions. Unless her sash is going diagonally, you should have them roughly follow the same perspective.

ooh really neat style! Though I think to improve the readability of it, you might want to consider adding white lines where the edges of certain objects are, kinda like i've done here.

I also thought the head was a little too tall, and the rear hand could use a little more detail than 'vague blob'. Other than that though, really cool stuff

>>3045964
I was going for silhouettes and shapes (leaving out white lines) for a more flat look. I get what you mean though.

If you ant to change up your style, what are some things you can do? I heard you can try to mimic other artists you like to try and take on elements from there drawings to add to your own, but I usually go back to drawing styles I learned from how to draw manga books. I do like anime, I'm just wondering what I can do to mix things up a little.

Very nice, do you have a place where you post your other work?

The face is cute, but you seriously need to get those lines under control. Stop chicken scratching and make long, single stokes for your lines, ctrl+z until you draw the line right. Additionally, it seems like you referenced the photo without much understanding of the underlying forms. The hands are the most glaring problem area. Do some simple anatomy studies, draw more bodies and hands.

>>3046907
This is rare, the full image looks more appealing than the thumbnail, why is this even?! Honestly confused

>>3046941
Agreed, its not a huge difference but kind of.
I think the color pallete is a little bit off and maybe thats why, I think the blue in the background is too glaring maybe. Im unsure cause I'm bad with color but this is cute.

But I like it. It looks exactly like I want it.
>don't get too attached to your drawings
True, I'm overly attached, but the only way to overcome this is drawing a lot, and this was, like, my third drawing this year? Forth? It boils down to "become pro to be pro". Deep.

>>3047303
>but I like it. It looks exactly like I want it.
No, you're attached to the idea of it due to how much time and effort you put into it. In reality, it looks like shit and you need to redraw it so you can get better.

To me it looks like your are abusing either dodge/burn or a shit ton of color replace/ balance/levels/curves. Stay away from those up the very late stage, and only use it a little even then. Also think about the focus, add details to the parts the eye should focus on, and much less so to the rest.

You shouldn't use pure greys and blacks.
Instead use very dark/desaturated colors that create harmony with the saturated ones.
For example here you could use desaturated blue or violet for her blouse and dark red for props on the hair,

How would I make this read better?

I used to do this kind of straight hatching technique on traditional, but it just ends up as a mess on digital. Probably due to worse straight lines, and partly because I just don't know how to draw stylized hair at all.

Can anyone draw-over this and section the hair in a more coherent way?

something looks off, but I can't put my finger on it. It's probably the eye and the cheeks

really nice, liked your style since I first saw that jungle comic you posted here on /ic/ long ago (did you ever finished that?). just message me on pixiv anytime you want to do another art trade with me. and thanks for the lovely draw.
