I drew some stuff and I would be pleased if you looked at it.
Here's some bits from a comic project with a friend.

These are guys in masks doing some traditional festival stuff. These spirits appear and take crops, which they roll into thin cigarettes; they smoke and fill the sky, pushing away rainclouds. They appear in droves and cause droughts and famine.

I like the masked dudes~
it's pretty good but personally i am not intrigued
i like your style. the poses feel stiff but that's always something you can improve on. try some lovecastle (http://lovecastle.org/draw/) or pixelovely (http://www.pixelovely.com/gesture/figuredrawing.php) for some pose and anatomy ideas for your style :)
GOD DAMN IT, that's how I usually react when playing vidya games. I find your art intriguing, share more with us.
I like your style as well
My favorites are the spirits, the mountain monster, and the sketches form your personal project :>
Keep it up
i demand a wav of jim carrey going HUUUURNNNGH
also the drawings are ok
like most people the masked fellas caught my eye because it's more complete than your other work
keep it up!
cute sketchu booku
Heyllo everyperson.
I had yet another idea for some comic. It is inspired by Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Texhnolyze.
I made a bunch of sketches, and colored a few. Here are the two that don't make me cringe. Maybe possibly expect more later.

I of course tried to draw some clean lines, and color those, but they were too soulless and dead-looking.
Have been working on making "complete" drawings IRL, and not just doodles. I would submit, but it's like a five minute walk to the nearest scanner and I'm not having any of that.
Also some more stuff from the mountain-eater / smoking mask project:

I'm trying to stop sketching everything. It's hard to make one line and resist the urge to go over it or correct it again in some way.
And I'm trying to to make more "finished" pieces. :/ I really have been drawing nothing but heads for the past few years.
Also, more color abuse. And my scanner broke.

Eventually I just break down and start drawing more lines than necessary.

Wait, when did I start drawing everyone looking to the right.
i like the first one the most. it'd be cool to see a full painting with that color scheme and temperature

2. Thank you for your disinterest? What kind of art are you into, anyways?
3. I have really never worked with color before, so I'm sorry, I'm sort of losing my shit over it now.
4. Okay, I will try uploading more "finished" things. For instance:

whiteknighting is far less constructive you stupid cocksucker
if you would go as far to say that is whiteknighting you're just further proving my point
that wasn't whiteknighting. your criticism was generally unhelpful. you didn't state anything that was wrong with the colors, or that was right with anything else. and stu didn't say "fuck you sinitron leave lovey alone" he said "don't take him too seriously" which is perfectly good advice because it seemed like she was.
so what you're saying is
the colors aren't trash
which is completely and utterly wrong if you aren't fucking blind
do you want me to write a fucking article about it fuck you you don't know shit about color and your eyeballs are fucking rotten to the core, all three of you (stu, sev, zen)
you're all far more worthless than anything i could possinly say
subject 1:
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thebackalleys.com%2Fdump%2Ffiles%2F1401%2F190No9_summer%2520bishop.png&hash=722f1db870e41d1b2a72b2db1501659fd5f42b77)
this is acceptable
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thebackalleys.com%2Fdump%2Ffiles%2F1401%2F137Uo1_Troisfleurs%2520et%2520Le%2520Monstre.png&hash=2ba15c4ae10b59fa18fb4a0cae79364a980cfa2e)
this is very brown, but it's not a soft and earthly brown, it's a revolting electric brown which is really fucking horrible to look at - it's also inconsistent but apparently the file was corrupted or something so i'm going to assume it is unfinished
the color abuse post is just that, save for the last picture which isn't pretty but bordering to acceptable
(https://thebackalleys.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.thebackalleys.com%2Fdump%2Ffiles%2F1401%2F7667gU_modern%2520warehouse.png&hash=d20d9a7ae49fea03a6665e2a628585541e48fe04)
this isn't too bad but some of the color transitions are too sudden and crude to achieve the (hopefully) intended goal of defining the shapes of the characters and instead it loses form and looks messy (but again, this was apparently sort of unfinished)
it's odd though because this only applies to the human characters that make up the foreground while most of the stuff in the background, except for the very bright red boxes, is good and consistent
there's like a million fucking books on color and MOST PEOPLE were born with eyes and common sense and judging by some of the things i see lovey is fully capable of making far better choices than what is seen in some of these pictures but it could just be a matter of getting used to digital media and/or not having a decade+ worth of fucking experience with idiotic drawing programs developed by fags that use apple products (nuke adobe) so FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!
we're not defending the colors, that was the point when i said stu isn't whiteknighting. but you deliver your criticism like a socially retarded pretentious asshole and no one who's trying to get better wants to hear that shit.
i never actually defended anyone at any point, you're just jumping to a reason to counter my statement but there's really nothing wrong with what i said no matter how you put it.
plus it's not like i was even saying you should stop doing it, because i wouldn't expect anything to come of that.
edit: fudahdsf why is the forum being so laggy right now nevermind
shut up you're not helping write a novel about her damn drawings to compensate or GIT OUT i want to see a full in-depth analysis using established methods for advanced dissection of visual mediums <- i just made that up but try to find flaws anyway

Yeah, it is definitely very, very, very, very bad. I have about as much experience lining things as I do coloring them, and my hands are damned unsteady. I'm not exactly sure of how to fix this.
Other than practice, practice, practice and getting a tiny bit better very slowly over time. ;_;
i agree the color choices on the brown one is really unattractive but your figures are pretty cool. keep up the good work!!

In the place where this takes place, the boy is a rather important person who only speaks some completely unimportant third world language nobody gives a shit about. The girl is the guy's translator; she's fluent in all four major languages, as well as his native one, and is also pretty good with a sword.
Also you guys are making me really happy thank you for your critiques and compliments. ;_;
i like the muted colors. you should just fill it nicely instead of scribble on it. it probably would have only taken you about 15 more minutes :wile:

I drew the girl in red as an afterthought, which I'm pretty sure shows in her asinine pose.
Can't seem to get the hang of soft shadows, so I tried dabbling in hard ones.
Is the color alright?
i probably would have met with a more muted background color, makes everything else pop out and the left character's shiirt is too close in value to the purple

Hahaha, oh my god.
Maybe I should lay off the video games.
That comic page doesn't seem to make any sense so far...I see a lady turning and then a monster and then a close claw near her as she is running okay...but then some dude in a hoodie and a little box with "snap" written on it ?_? Um what's going on there? I can't piece it together. Also everything is crammed into those panels so close that they all seem "boxed in" by the panels. I'd zoom back just a little more on the faces and allow more scene to be shown so that we know she's running in a place (like where IS she? in a desert? in a city? a building lab? who knows.) I'll leave the rest of my concerns when we see a more finished looking page :)
I abandoned whatever comic attempt that was; the page is absolutely terrrrible. >_>
But I'll try solidifying another comic idea and making a better page.
I lost my tablet for about a week and half, but the instant I found it, I drew this.

But that's probably going to take a bit.
any reason you're using that mustard yellow color for a majority of the colors? judging by the sky it is night time, i'd expect a cooler color dominating the scene
Because I forgot about coolness and warmth.

nice animation. i like the turnaround and dash. what was going on with the oekaki?
Nothing wrong on your side; I just couldn't figure out how to get some pressure-sensitive thing to work correctly, and kept bouncing from program to program.
I forget which program wasn't letting me control the size of the pencil tool. Maybe Shi-Painter.
i know with jtablet installed chibipaint will do it automatically, and then shida mentioned another one also supports it if you turn on some option. but i can't remember what it was
If you have jTablet installed. On the top right hand corner of a shipainter/shipainter pro canvas is a 'P'. Click on it and you can switch on pressure sensitivity for shipainter =)
I'm making a wallpaper for a game I've never played.

They're all straight from the game.
I like it but what game is this from?
It's .flow ("dot flow"), a Yume Nikki fangame.
