Creative Work That Doesn't Deserve A Thread V5 <Dongery Penis Edition> - General

I like to get high off hard drugs and look at things. Here are some rhymes I thought of after seeing four young, attractive women in short shorts. Skank ass hoes dressed to fit popularity Shit it's like you reject individuality And you live off generality You're fucked up past thinking with clarity Your friends are just a crutch to your insecurity These ideals you promote as sanity Can't be justified by masses as reality But by those who reflect your vanity I speak with ideals of purity Untainted by your conformity Lead by my own diversity Not to appeal to the majority

Warning: Furry alert [IMG]http://i755.photobucket.com/albums/xx200/myst_penguin/progress_digicolor-5.png[/IMG] Yes I know I went over-the-top with the color scheme, this was my first time seriously doing digi-art. What I mainly want to know is; did I get the shading right?

needs more shadows...

I don't care what you choose for the color scheme, but I want you to tone it back at least a little next time so it isn't blaring blue/red. As for your shading in general though, you have to think about where a lightsource is. Some of the shadows in your picture (such as the hair and ears) would lead you to believe the lightsource (let's say sun) is directly above, some show it's straight to the right side of the picture (shadow on the muzzle/ears), some show the lightsource to be directly in front of him (shadow under chin). I'm not saying you need to develop an advanced understanding of the shapes of your figures, light dynamics or other crazy stuff, I just want you to focus on making sure all of the shadows seem to follow the same direction of light. You're doing good so far, so keep working at it.

[IMG]http://www.1337upload.net/files/danu2 copy.jpg[/IMG] I was just messing around in photoshop, it's my friend in the picture.

[QUOTE=Daolpu;23367836]Was a slow day at work, so I decided to have a go at the pen tool. Really neat, I should start to learn Illustrator more in depth. [IMG]http://cubeupload.com/files/2ae966redpandaface.png[/IMG] [/QUOTE] Why Illustrator? Photoshop can do this stuff too.

Oxu365: I think it'd look even better without the texture over the whole thing. Even if it was just not on your friend and just on the background. It looks pretty cool though.

[QUOTE=KorJax;23368964]Seems kind of random and too spontaneously busy with no real direction. I really like the use of your text though even if it is kind of "grad school artsy fartsy" of a thing to do.[/QUOTE] eh yeah i started to just throw stuff in at the end, but it's over done. I also couldn't find any good high-res backgrounds to fit in for the bottom

[IMG]http://i31.tinypic.com/1hl38.png[/IMG] is this any better?

[QUOTE=JaspertheDoxie;23388761] This is Lucy from Elfen Lied. Note, I am somewhat new to drawing anime/manga.[/QUOTE] If you're new it won't be too hard for you to stop right there and move on to not-anime drawings. With all the respect to anime, it's not good practice of anatomy or drawing at all. Anime figures are quite repetitive and often lack interesting features. I'm not saying anime is bad, neither is drawing it, but it's not worth the effort. (Also, I think the drawing is nice but the nose isn't in the right place, it should be more to the left, when making boobies try to shade under them and not make half-circles like that. the shoulders aren't supposed to pop like that unless her shirt weighs two tons, they are also too wide, the length of each one from the neck to the end of the shoulder is as long as the neck is from one end of it to the other. The whole thing seems a bit awkward, try shading it for better looks.

I was hoping for constructive critisism, not someone telling me to stop drawing anime. >.> Last time I'll ever upload art on FP.

[QUOTE=JaspertheDoxie;23390325]I was hoping for constructive critisism, not someone telling me to stop drawing anime. >.> Last time I'll ever upload art on FP.[/QUOTE] One piece of negative feedback doesn't require such an action, i think you should wait for more feedback.

The first part of advice is good though and you shouldn't ignore it. You should learn human anatomy with life drawing before adapting that skill into anime or other alternate/abstract styles. From what I have heard it makes you a better anime artist in the long run if you really like that style in particular. You don't have to leave anime completely but it shouldn't be what you start at. As for the picture, her breasts are completely wrong looking and the entire mid section looks flat and has no depth. She looks like she has no waist either. The head seems slightly too large even for anime but that might just be my opinion. Also, most of Facepunch isn't fond of anime, so you will expect negative comments. Any artist should be able to handle this and simply ignore it and look for criticism about the art itself rather than the style. If you can't take one negative opinion you may want to consider if art is for you because art is meant to spark discussion regardless of if this is positive or negative. When people have nothing to say about it at all is the worst.

Edited my post for constructive criticism, didn't mean to make you lose hope in facepunch...

That confused the heck out of me because my name is Emma. Then I saw "lips tutorial" and remembered who that was but I thought that she was called jenny considering it's in all her user names. edit: stop editing your stuff so it looks like I am speaking nonsense sunbird. :v:

I was the one speaking nonsense so I edited it out :v: [editline]11:19PM[/editline] I get confused at times :v:

Ah well, don't we all. :v:

any crit on my picture above?

Better but the clock doesn't "shade" right with the rest of the picture, looks to clashy and copy+pasta. Basically there is no sense of depth to the fragments themselves while there is a small sense of depth to everything else. Doesn't integrate well at all. Also get rid of the drop shadow if you have one on it. Looks like you do at least.

Some shit I did: [IMG]http://th05.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2010/196/8/0/Thumby_by_Infernomonster.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://th00.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2010/196/e/2/Bulls_On_Parade_by_Infernomonster.jpg[/IMG] I hate colour pencils. Anyway I'll do a huge dump once I get back from my roadtrip.

[img]http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/196/0/4/Lucy_Elfen_Lied_V2_by_AspiringAnime.jpg[/img] I improved it. I made the breasts have shading, I made the hair better, and I made her face more like Lucy's. Whatdy'all think?

only tits are shaded mak es him look like he tanned his tits, and lost nipples and a bellybutton. Shirt is overly tight and it's manga. Stay the fuck away from manga with your dear life.

Hmm, in all the mangas and animes I've seen, the breast itself is shaded, and the shirt is tight not overly tight.

Base your foundation on realism not some japanese cartoonish stylisation. It's prolly a period you have right now like I did, where I in the start drew some manga shit from Elfen lied as well. Keep well away from it, you may come back to it later if you wish, even tough right now I don't even want to look in it's direction.
