Hello again. o/
I haven't done too much in the last few days - pretty much a drawing of the protagonist (http://i.imgur.com/V09CErE.png) from Lone Survivor.
I also went back to redraw something from the first page of my old thread to see how much of a difference three years has made. (In other words, Improvement Meme)
Here's the drawing from November of 2010. (http://i.imgur.com/QuhKJal.png)
Here's the drawing I finished today. (http://i.imgur.com/fElEu5Y.png)
Oh, I will also take requests if anyone wants them.

Well done

Remi also looks like she aged about three years.
-
I don't know if you changed your style a lot but it seems that you drew the newer Remilia using a different style (different proportions) so it's harder to compare them. Excluding the color both looks pretty good, the newer one shows that you improved in coloring.

If you have some free time you could draw some Youmu or Sunny Milk :)

Maybe it's just me, but I see the style of newer Remi just as a logical extension of older one. Main elements (eyes, hair, node, limbs) in both pictures are basically drawn the same way. Yet, the newer one seems like it was drawn by more steady hand.
So, Aoshi became more experienced, that's for sure.

Ah, forgot.

I haven't done too much in the last few days - pretty much a drawing of the protagonist (http://i.imgur.com/V09CErE.png) from Lone Survivor.
I like this. :3
As for requests, could you please draw an amusing pic of a Touhou of your choice juggling something else also of your choice?
-
I like how on the first one remi is like, I'm all spiffy with my cup and the second, don't touch my cup I will cut you
Can you draw a super kawaii yuyu-sama?
-
Indeed she can. (http://aoshi-shi.tumblr.com/post/44433211372)
More kawaii? Oh yes, even if Kuruneko will have to wait. There's never too much kawaisa.

Jegus, that's a badass Yukari.
Then Chen must be on the edge of a cliff and Mamizou must be hovering over the pit! It's so simple! :derp:

Badass Sukuna, but those eyebrows look bizarre to me.

I... ugh (http://imgur.com/L0qoFCk). As expected, I am not Aoshi and am not Aoshi Level. ._.
So, do you think I may use this ^, or I'll better place original pencil? :ohdear:
What a loooooong body.
Google "LongCat." Pelvis could be more definite, because the clothes accentuate her waist. The neck should be not so visible with that standing collar. The chest is put rather high, like a male's one (and I thought Ruri had greater one), and maybe her arms could be a bit thicker?
Haven't noticed anything of that kind. ._.
-

The colored version is quite nice~
Haven't noticed anything of that kind. ._.
Strangely, Kuroneko was a bit difficult for me to draw.
I tried redlining the drawing. Better? Worse? (http://i.imgur.com/PTiNTSU.png)
-
I, uh, well, I don't know. For me, the original was quite nice already.
>_>
<_<
...Well, let's see what those guys say themselves. ._.

Weiss (http://i.imgur.com/7kNlrWN.png)
I would just like the point out that
Good job it's excellent
Although I find the ponytail a little too... You know. Solid.
Also, nice Myrtenaster, even if it is a little off in places.
-
...Well, let's see what those guys say themselves. ._.
Seems better. Arms' thickness is okay. The chest is still a bit higher than it should be. If she put her arms down, her chest would be above the center of the humerus. Thouhg, if she wears a bra with cotton wool or a corsage, then it's fine.
-
Oh wow, didn't realize you got a new thread.
Posting before class, so not even sure where to start commenting on here, but you're still doing good work as always, I see.
Keep it up!

Wow so many cool drawings :O

Post the stickers photos when you have them :)

The shading on Yuyuko is <3
You've improved so much! Keep it up~!

I almost began to miss your art.
Yuyuko 100/10
She's definitely the best in the pack, that's for sure. :3
-
Echoing everyone here; that Yuyuko is stunning!
And that's before she even hops into a tank the following picture, which was amazing for your first time drawing tanks. It certainly made Jeff (my best man) very happy on his birthday~ XD
-
Those are all awesome. Like everyone else said, especially that Yuyuko. But my favorite is Yoshika. I think it's her face, for some reason to me it looks like the face people make when they don't want their picture taken.
-
That Reimu really calls out to me. I am in love with her expression, simple as it is. :3
If you're still taking requests Aoshishishi, may I ask for Koishi in fall clothing? Maybe Suwako too?

amg ur back!!!!

Such improvement on shading, especially Reisen :* That tank is also pretty freakin' sweet also!

Final project from one of my classes. (http://i.imgur.com/wodHxLf.png) Basically we were supposed to do a scene on a particular street in three-point. During a field trip, I took a photo of the angle I needed and put a perspective over it in Photoshop. Not sure which I prefer more... doing everything in Photoshop or drawing it by hand.
Although I think this is a thing that I definitely want to fix up and color later.

Re: Shimakaze
So energetic. Go, Rensouhou-chan~! and so secondary in the anime it's sad, at least in the first couple eps from what I recall; havent finished it
Re: environ 1
Holy crap the detail. Looks very lonely there though.
Re: environ 2
The little menu thingies in the holder on the end of the table being out of alignment's a nice touch; I don't think they're EVER lined up right when one sees em...unless that's how they're supposed to be for visibility, I dunno. Looks like a nice place for a meal with family and/or friends though in any case.
Re: new Touhou
Way to make me have to edit my post, Aoshiiiii...! Anyway two thoughts. 1: Geez, gotta go fast much? Not even a day and you've already got art for her. 2: ...well, what else can I say? Crazy good work as usual. Loving the flowingness of the cape, though I also liek everything else so *shrug*

Trying to get more background practice in. (http://i.imgur.com/xDTQrFR.png)
Woah, this is great!
The color of the skin doesn't seem to work with the lighting of the background, but this is still way amazing! Especially envious of your ability to draw legs and feet.

Oh? What seems to not work? Too much blue in the skin tone? I'm still pretty new to how local color changes under different lighting conditions so any tips or advice would be great!
Testing something out (http://i.imgur.com/z97Y0I8.png)
WIP of Ringo (http://i.imgur.com/vOUtt1T.jpg) (I really like her theme)
Bonus value study (http://i.imgur.com/WdckahY.jpg) (Her right arm looks funky now that I look at it so I'm going to change it later.)
-
I'm not sure how well I can articulate, since I'm more novice than you. It could just be that the background is faded, while Tewi's pretty bright, and that makes her feel out of place? You could try darkening and muting the colors some, but I can't guarantee that would be the fix.
-
Trees by themselves suggest a cloudy sky at dusk. They are lit so poorly that we get to see a specular reflection of the sky on the sides of their trunks.
Tewi, on the other hand, is well lit from all sides, like it's still a little past noon.
I'm still pretty new to how local color changes under different lighting conditions so any tips or advice would be great!
Maybe not so useful, as it's an experimental idea I thought of only about a week ago myself; in the last two drawings I first dealt with pure lightning - filled a layer with some dark color for shadows, then put light patches here and there - and only then colored it on another layer, which was set to multiply, to grossly simulate how the light works.
...I guess you'd understand better if I just showed this. (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52018470/Temp/2015-06-22.sai)
To show something shiny (like hair), I imagine adding another pair of intensity*color layers specifically for glares, and setting them to "screen" with diffuse should work. (picking colors would be completely another story then though)
You can also add a pure additive layer for something that shines on their own.
So, basically, I simulate a Cel shader with brushes and pens. Oh well.

I'm always motivated by new Touhous. (http://i.imgur.com/V3eMoE5.png) (Spoilers)
Since it's two in the morning I guess I'll finish this later
-
I'm going to let this go (http://i.imgur.com/BbwgmXC.png) before this goes from extreme turd polishing to super ultra turd polishing.
I suppose I got a little too ambitious with the background. Fun to play around with, though!
-
I still think it looks pretty good, I like how you had the trees gradient into the background, it's a nice touch.
-
That's pretty nice. Same problem as with Tewi though; She's lit way differently than the background. If you had a glowing fairy floating in front of her it would look alright, and explain her expression.
The moon really doesn't shine (well, reflect) very brightly, so it would never go to full brightness like on her skin and white ears. The things the light hit are only perceived as brighter because what isn't hit is completely dark (as light tend to work).
Check out Futon's works (http://utubuse.suppa.jp/frame.htm), he's a master of playing with darkness (character galleries in the side menu). I really like the spooky side of Gensokyo, so it's worth exploring.

This is my take on the thing.
I think ragathol has a good point about the moon, but i'm not clever enough to figure out the lighting, so handwaved it as light from the top right of the canvas. I'm also pretty sure I worked in too red of a hue, but as I said, I'm not clever.
A great problem I have is how you've drawn and coloured her face. I never liked the proportions you used; they are too far apart and the cheek bone . And it's worse because you're trying to shade realistically on a stylised piece of work. The eyes are flat, and trying to colour in a tiny pin prick of a nose doesn't work too well. I went in and fixed the proportions, rounded the eyes proper and gave an actual nose that is easier to shade. Other fixes include softening some of the shadows (the neck for example), fixing the stomach and hip area and thinning the calves.
In the end, it'll be best if you revised on the form of the human body. If what i'm doing to the face doesn't please you, then you'll probably do well copying anime figurines.
I don't know if this paintover will do any good, or if it's any good, but may as well.

Thanks! I'll try to be more careful about this kind of lighting in the future.
I remember seeing a few of Futon's Yukari pics floating around a while ago so it's nice to finally put a name to the art.

To me the face - especially the nose - looks like an improvement (which probably means that I need to care more about the effort of such things). Thanks for taking the time to do this.

A quick little cheat. It may not be correct moonlight, but at least it makes it blend together a little more. Just make a colored mask and set it to Multiply.
Like in terrorism, in digital art the end justifies the means.

On a different note -
I feel like I've been pretty high-strung for the longest time, and my work seems to be suffering because of it. ...idk I feel like I've trapped myself in this mindset that whenever I put pencil to paper a finished product needs to come out of it. For some reason I can't just leave some drawings as just a sketch?? It's pretty dumb of me, and I'm putting all sorts of imaginary pressure on myself to make "good" work.
Lately I've been trying to get myself out of this rut by doing some small and quick sketches in my free time. They look pretty bad, but I'm fine with it; I think I would be a lot better off if I just went "lol, what is that?" and just start a brand new sketch instead of trying to salvage and painstakingly refine it.
At least, that's what I think.

Is that a CCS reference I see?

I agree with your approach 100%, Aoshi; perhaps trying just some short 10-15 min timed sketches or something would be good as a way to not even leave yourself the OPTION to get super involved with them?
-

Oh, is that where that meme came from? :derp:
Forgot about this today, but I did a quick ASakuya (http://i.imgur.com/odJzTNt.jpg) as a (day late) start of Inktober. I'll do my best to do one everyday. o7

This is a REALLY neat effect you have going on there.

Agreeing with JQ here, that Junko looks awesome. If that's my 2nd, then that Reisen is my #01 favorite. I love her look.

she doesn't look very pleased about that apple

You'd probably be upset with fruit growing off of you too!
Alternatively, maybe she prefers lemons or oranges or something?

I loooooove that Junko omg

When i saw the title I half expected ALakshmi, haha.
Also is that a popsicle in the tail's mouth? Adorable in any case.
I dont think I need to explain my views on Youmu by now to you of all people, now do I? =P

Not exactly a bump, but more of a "Look at this stuff while I organize some things in the meantime."
A greenhouse (http://i.imgur.com/t0hMlc5.jpg) that I did for a school project. Reimu's teeny tiny compared to Remi so I'll need to scale her up when I render this.

I want to point out once again that your facial proportions have done you absolutely no favours from the very first time you've chosen to stick with them and to this moment with your latest post. The wide eyes, low hanging nose and mouth may seem fine in sketches, but after rendering they fall apart like a paper mache without so much as a lone breeze. Many a time the nose is misaligned yet easily missed in sketches, but when they are rendered out, it's clear that they are usually off the mark. Until you've decided to recognise these proportions as awful, properly construct the face as a 3d object and take the time to align facial features, it is obvious that your progress will stall as it had been for a fairly long time.
http://i.imgur.com/3L66LzS.png
As usual I've taken a stab at correcting the face, but it's clear my attempt at correcting anatomy fell flat since I simply made a half-hearted attempt trying to fix the visible body whilst trying not to mess with the rest of it that's clothed. (Excuses. I know.)
Which brings to the point of anatomy. It's bad. I don't know what more to say, since I don't have any nude drawings to go off by. You just seem to have trouble grasping proportion at times and failing to recognise the changes in planes on the body (especially the stomach, which looks little more than a tube as I've seen with Ringo). I peg it down to lack of construction, but as far as I know, anything flies.
-
Ah, thanks. It almost feels embarrassing to be told the same thing twice, hahaha
Although it really sucks to feel like I've been dragging my feet when it comes to my art. I mean, it's not like I don't want to improve or anything, but... I feel pretty indifferent about it? It sucks to feel this way and I don't want to be this kind of person anymore, but first I guess I need to drum up my motivation again and just do it.
My anatomy's been gradually slipping in pretty much every area, but I think starting with faces would be in my best interest.
-
That you actually get work done is admirable though; last time I finished something was... never lmao
+OT, but pirate: all your things have weird cat noses

That is a hella Benben right there.
Also I didn't expect Alraune when I clicked on that link, and I am deeply pleased. EO needs all the love.

It's actually Scylla but I do happen to have an Alraune piece as well as a few other EO related stuff planned. I'll get around to those once I finish up all the birthday requests!

Dangit. That's what I meant.

Mea had been using his art for quite a while before Himiko blessed him with the current one. We may say his views are biased on the matter. :V
I usually apply varying degrees of editing to a picture before setting it as my userpic, though I haven't used a genuine Delfi drawing yet.
And why? This picture doesn't look like Aoshi's art for me, like at all.

looking at that picture gives me such an intense presque vu moment I thought it was hers. Or someone around here. Or of recently something something. I can't rememberrrr
blessed/given, yes, it just feels weird to use the work of a peer if it wasn't specifically intended for my use, I just assumed others had it too
