Post Your Artwork Thread V5

[Savory]

WIP of an entry for a Touhou crossover contest on DeviantArt.

Cookie for anyone who can correctly guess what Patchy is wearing.

[Akitake]

meh.

Wonder when I can start my own thread. Wanna start posting my artworks up.

[AnonymousPondScum]

Holy cow. If you've got more where that came from then definitely make a thread once you're out of tourist mode.  :]

EDIT: Oh wait, you already do have a thread. IGNORE ME. :V

[Mootsies]

Just some random incomplete doodling from this morning when I'm bored in class. I'm suck at clothes design, and proportions, and drawing hands, etc. oh well..  :V


Also, I just got started on taking drawing seriously, so critics would be gladly accepted. Especially on drawing different pose (anatomy).
I'm actually hesitating back and forth for half hour deciding to post this or not. Not actually the confident type.  :V

Don't worry about it! You did well deciding to ask for criticism.
Anyway, not the best drawer out here, but here's a bit I noticed.
The arms should be somewhat longer. Elbows typically are at waist-height, and wrists where the legs begin.
Her shoulders look pretty broad and stiff. Remember shoulders are usually a tad lower than where they start at the neck.

As for me, Reimu sketch. I recently found that sketches can be quite fun! You can create the whole form of the picture without putting in as much effort :U

[[K]KoaMeow]

Draw the first two out of boredom, and colored them first. Added shou later, along with the rest and et voila.

Link'd because the image is superbig.

@KrackoCloud : thanks for the feedback! True enough, I feel that the hand and arm position is a bit awkward.. so that's why.. thanks for pointing it out. And I got a problem when I'm trying to balance between left and right position (like eyes and face).
Anyway, I've been reading about anatomy for a while, gonna try sketching Alice later (or whatever comes to mind)
EDIT : decided to do reimu, here
RE-EDIT : just noticed the typo

[Shmarah]

@Indecisive Scientist- Anatomy wise, Reimu needs hips! (That don't lie!)
I know my anatomy improved incredibly once I studied a  body (those pose dolls are helpful for simplifying things) and started drawing hips; they not only help in shaping a womanly body, but they help in positioning the legs. (Before i just blindly stuck legs on where I thought the rest of their body ended)
Also, I hate positioning eyes too! I avoid drawing things front and center often, because it's easier when the head is facing left/right ish, but what might help is holding the picture up to a mirror.
Finally, Reimu's sleeves:  even if they are meant to be skin tight, they'd still make a sort of "bump" on her arm.
You're really not too shabby at drawing chests, y'know! (Kukuku... :3)

Rule of thumb:
NEVER FOLLOW DEVIANTART TUTORIALS
EVER
EVER
EVER
EVER

There's a few rare decent ones out there, but the vast majority will do nothing but teach you bad habits.

[Mootsies]

What's a deviantart tutorial? never touched them  :V
And please do tell me about bad habits, I'm still learning and will pretty much take as many info and critics I can have.
@Shmarah Oho ho ho, I do know woman's body well :3 (not).
As for me, I still can't draw different position as easily as I draw a center-pose, so I'm stuck at training my anatomy at center-pose first, and take it from there.
I noticed that my drawings tend to have a quality flux based on my mood and condition, so I really need to practice a lot more..
Anyway, I might turn to digital art drawing once I have the time to steal borrow my friend's tablet, gonna see what I can do. (it'll motivate me do draw seriously rather than do a simple doodling on paper, at least)

Don't just make anatomy "whatever looks about right." Use Loomis books or something. And read the text.

_{I wish I could unlearn everything I did horrifyingly wrong. ;_;}

Sometimes I wish I never looked up how to draw anime on DeviantArt.
Or read those How to draw anime books.

[DX7.EP]

Those anime books...ugh, the horror. :ohdear:

They only teach imitation, not actual illustration. Lousy things.

[Prime32]

Oh hey I have an account here now so I should post some pics maybe.
Momiji
Yukari
Keine
Old and bad but I thought it would be funny
Just a circle

I also have a ton of stuff in Order of the Stick style, though that's kind of... niche.

[Alfred F. Jones]

That Keine looks almost Technic, but it's probably something else. I'm too used to Bionicle sets and not much else.

[Tamer Anode/Cathode]

It looks to be made in Lego Digital Designer, and it looks like it's using a lot of elements of Hero Factory (Bionicle's spiritual successor). I'm more impressed by the use of hinged bits to get more angles in the dress and the hair.

Correct-o. Those Hero Factory parts are useful.

For me her shoulders could be more "relaxed", anyway nice sketch

PS: That Mechakeine is pretty cool =o

Yeah, I realized that too late ,:Y

[DX7.EP]

Not a problem; I notice plenty of post-completion errors on my own sketches. :V

If anything they're just impetuses for not repeating them next time

[[HJD]Red_Herring]

I am back, and you know what it is going to be. That's right, dump the sketches and WIPs, then run like h*ll. Those who commented on the previous batch, I thank you all. Anyhow, here are some works I have been at.

Now, my task of ruining your visual sensory organs is now complete. Time to run before you guys can file a lawsuit against me.

EDIT: I am terribly sorry about giving only the thumbnails. I just can't get used to the new Photobucket. Maybe, I will just switch to something else.

[KrackoCloud]

Only thumbnails?! Why?! ',:0

[Totaku]

I was about to say the same thing as Kracko said... also you're missing Seiga from your thumbnail set I recall seeing earlier.

Nooooooooooo, come back! I promise I won't sue!

That Iku is splendid. And that Patchurry on her stack of books... aw, hell, I love 'em all.

[DX7.EP]

*stuff*

Good god, your stuff is really nice as always. 무큐 파절임 was surprisingly funnier than it should've been.

I just can't get used to the new Photobucket. Maybe, I will just switch to something else.

It's giving me issues too, yeah.

Neat. Would like to see some of your own comments on the work and/or submissions though; always nice to hear the rationale! :V

Is it okay that I come crawling back to this thread? My old one has been buried after months and months of inactivity :qq:

Anyway I just want to share this Utsuho I rendered. I've been pushing my perception skills through hell to come up with something like this haha

You can bump it if you want, as long as it's not just a "bump!" post. AAA and PSL have autolock turned off for the reason of artists being lazy bastards and taking months and months to post things, after all. And wow, I am diggin' that Utsuho and I'd love to see more!

[HakureiSM]

You still exist
Welcome back

Balls, that's great
