Serious art thrØd

your figures are kind of rubbery. the joints need more definition. especially when force is being pushed down on a joint, you need to get that sense of weight that the arm or leg is holding up. i also am not very fond of those strange nubs you are drawing as hands. if you want to avoid drawing all the fingers at the very least draw the index finger. the other 3 fingers can meld together and you can get away with it if it's quick.

I haven't touched a tablet in a year, what is this.

skillz when?

i think you should hold off on coloring for a while until you get solid drawing skills down. or, at the very least, use solid blocks of color instead of weird blobs and soft airbrushes. and don't use grays and blacks to shade. it makes colors muddy

took about 2 hours, trying to utilize what i've been working on in my sketchbooks.

aside from the fact that this drawing is kinda scrappy, it's not bad. however, don't forget about bounce light underneath the figure here. the darkest part of the shading on the apple would be where the shadow begins as the main light source fades. then, the reflections from the surface would bounce onto the bottom of the apple. so the further down you go on the shadow, the lighter it actually gets. not by much, but the subtle change will make a big difference.

Here's a few studies I've done recently:



Just picked up matt kohr's basic rendering series too, gonna go do that and post results.

i like the top one a lot better than the bottom one. you need some contrast between sharp and blurry though, everything is blurry in these pics.

Those expressions kind of remind me of meme comics. I don't know if that really means anything though.

after all this time i thought that icon was a joke about cringey things or something, but hey, maybe that's the idea.

still, why would you even make that your icon if you made it yourself.

I'm atoning for my sins, think of it as self flagellation if you will.

Sam can do art things too! (also don't laugh at the tree it was born that way)
