I decided to see if my fundamental grinding is paying off and tried to construct some anime heads. I'm really happy with how they came out, but these took a ridiculous amount of trial and error to get looking good. At least when it came to the hair, I think I'm finally starting to 'think 3 dimensionally' or whatever the fuck that means.

Why is that?
And what's with the box method? I thought you were doing Hide's head course.

I have appeal and that's aaaallll that matters

>>7869490
You might be mixing me up with another anon. I was working through Xiao Weichun's textbook in earlier threads. The basic idea of construction I learned there is helpful, but not directly when it gets to heads this stylized.
A lot of the trial and error was trying to keep the character consistent when drawing from a new angle, which is something I haven't done before. Discounting skulls, I just haven't really drawn a huge number of heads, so I don't have a good intuition for facial feature placement for the tougher angles.

>>7869494
I did mix you up sorry, I saw heads and lineart and didn't pay attention to the style.
Did you already try Loomis? The template proportions work on many anime heads out of the box, and if not it's pretty easy to adjust them.
This is just my own experience but I found trying to use a box first was counterproductive. Not only is it difficult (for me) to place the sphere inside the box correctly, but I had a tendency to flatten the features. Maybe I will try it again some other time.

where am I supposed to find a community for beginners where I can share my suffering with?
Every discord I join has some draw gods and normal people drawing well

>>7869502
here?

>>7869504
Not really. i want instant feedback in a community.
my constant bitching here makes me easy to identify and potentially become a lol cow
this hobby breaks people like me

>>7869478
A book on perspective would be a good idea too.

>>7869500
I'm not attached to the box, and maybe trying loomis next time is a good shout. I don't really have an established method yet, but I liked the idea of the box, since it was closest to what I was doing with skulls and it sets a clear 'goal' perspective/scale for me at the start that I can shoot for.

/ic/ can be fun, sure. Posting your drawings on here is like joining a mosh pit, it can bring a great sense of togetherness, sometimes you'll see a schizo on the floor rambling about talent, sometimes you'll bump into people that post their own stuff, but there's a huge amount of crabs. Ultimately, once you leave the mosh pit, it continues as if you weren't even there. The only people that will remember you will be the crabs and schizos on the floor because they can't escape the pit.
You'll get some responses, but 90 percent of the time it will be useless. Joining a local art community is better in the long run, even though it requires going outside and meeting people.

Every art group I’ve joined IRL has been full of libtards. It’s terrible. Don’t conservatives draw?

I would like to know your ethnicity before I help you. Not to discriminate, but so I know which code to switch to.

>>7869603
They do but there's 0 chance they'll ever join one of those groups, and probably 0 chance you'll ever clock one if you come off as even remotely liberal. Cons and even unaffiliated groups self-select hard against liberal groups and liberal friends (lol no that "conservative friend" is not conservative) so unfortunately liberals end up kludging together and create echo chambers wherever they go.

I went to a conservative artist meetup but there was this one weird guy there with long hair and cut marks. He showed me his bizarre gore porn collection of little boys and kept talking about how excited he is for his 3rd bath of the day despite smelling like blood and vomit. I never went back.

People will choose which artists to follow based on their politics and if they find out an artist disagrees with them they'll start saying their art was always bad.

And I first tried to lean gesture from Hampton too and he is legit an atrocious source for begs. He is better revisited once you get somewhat comfortable with drawing. Gestures are actually hard as fuck to pull off, you need to draw dozens and hundreds of them to start getting the feeling and understanding unless you are a talentfag. Try also watching Proko's and Brent Eviston's take on gestures. I watched them all and took bits and pieces from them in my gesture drawings.

Learning to recognize flaws. If you can identify what's wrong the second time around, you are over halfway through the process of improvement

It feels more like when you set out to draw something and get it partially right, your brain temporarily learns to translate what you drew into what you actually intended. If someone else drew it you'd be able to see it as shit from the start, but when you draw it yourself you need a break to let the association with what you were aiming for fade before you can see it for what it is. I think what you're really learning isn't how to recognize flaws, it's where you need to be careful to stamp out the flaws early before your eyes have time to adjust to them.

I've been drawing since december 2021. 2 hours a day 3 - 5 days a week depending on how I feel. Recently I've been getting a lot more serious about my drawings and noticed that whenever I'm brainstorming how I'd like to stylize a character I will draw the head then erase it then draw it again, tuning aspects like the eyes, shape, sharpness etc. until it looks like how I want it to is that a bad idea or is this how you're supposed to train style?

>hmm yeah fair, i watched it at different stages of my life and its interesting to see that i react much differently each time..still love the movie bc it does delve deep into the psychological result of heavy trauma
Don't get me wrong, the theme of the movie is no joke, the visual brutality takes away the focus from the importance of the plot. Obviously the movie work as a n exposure device of these cults and sects that really believe in that shit.
>happy to see another enjoyer of that fetish but yeah it does need proper build up and stuff

I'm not exactly starting from zero as I've drawn as a hobby since I was very young, but I'm still very much a /beg/ because I don't really have a good grasp of the fundamentals. I admittedly don't feel as much of a desire to rapidly learn them all since I mostly like my toon drawings as a supplement to character creation and writing, but recently I tried to draw a bird (the greater lophorina) from a reference after doodling it by memory, and I realized I greatly lack the ability to properly interpret references, as in, I don't think I know what I'm looking at. This is deeply frustrating, as I want to feel confident in what my eyes see. After some research, one could say I suffer from symbol drawing, no? As in, I draw what I *think* I see rather than what is actually there. I did a still life of a crushed can I had and attempted to copy a portrait of Aaron Copland, and then later marked them over (primarily the Copland) digitally (It does not look like Copland, but rather a respectable cafe/dive bar owner), which you can see in the catbox link below. I'm thinking of reading Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain too, if that would be any help to me. Hopefully my shitty phone camera and shitty indoor lighting doesn't completely fuck this up, lol.

>>7870146
I don't think it really means anything about you, it just means that your artstyle isn't flexible, but in most cases that shouldn't mean you have to completely overhaul it. Do you have any examples?

>>7869633
If that's the case, why do you post here instead of on Reddit? I like people's art who I disagree with but I'm not going to like spending time with, say, some retard with a sea sponge tier political opinion like that ICE is Nazis, for instance. That would get very tiring very quickly.

Project 2 B: Emulating a Master's Handwriting
I attempted to emulate Herni Matisse's artstyle. I don't think I emulated her style too well though.

Here's the reference I used. https://i.postimg.cc/yd1WTYNg/C1Mvg30.jpg

The figure on the left was a new approach to a drawing I did before the course; the heads on the right also had the glabella/nose geometry incorrect.

Using what he taught about adopting the glabella as the most important reference point on the head, and not the eye line, made it much easier for me to understand facial geometry

>>7870479
I) Your understanding of the centerline and the torso is a bit off. The center line tracks well from the abdominals between the breasts but then the sternum appears to be caved in towards the left too much. The result is that the bottom of the torso looks slightly disconnected from the centerline of the collarbones and neck. The way you design hair and braids could use some work as you tend to repeat similarly sized spikes at equal spaces too much. The design would be much stronger if you learned how to incorporate principles of "Small Medium and Large" for both your positive and negative shapes. I would also learn line weighting more as it would make your illustrations feel a bit less cheap.

II) The lighting is a bit wrong. I get the feeling we would see more of the light hitting the left planes of the pectoralis, judging that the deltoid and side of the face are fully lit.

III) Color theory wise you could also do a bit better. Your choice of colors in the shadows feels dull for the skin, and could use more hue variation so it feels less dead.

IV) For the design, I'm not sure the red spikes on her trapezius is supposed to be feathers or fur. Even with just silhouette, shape, and cell shading, I should be able to tell what material it's supposed to be in your design. This lack of material understanding is also apparent in the way you handle the metal on her design as well as being a bit too sparse with some much needed extra drapery folds on her chest to show the tension of the fabric.

Personally I'm not a huge fan of this design, but taste aside I think it will take a few years to improve from points I-IV to the point where you could reliably hope to get income from your work that would exceed what you get from welfare or any entry level wage job. You obviously have some experience, but your execution, character designs, and fundamental understanding still needs further refinement.

Hagström's portfolio on Instragram and Artstation are little better but a lot of the female faces look too masculine and the aforementioned issues also creep into his other drawings.
Mind you, he said he's on welfare so it doesn't look like Kaj is getting getting a mentor or going to a school anytime soon. He will have to grind it out like the rest of us.Getting from /beg/ to /int/ can be relatively short with consistent practice and learning theory. To go from /int/ to /pro/ takes several years of dedicated effort getting specialized feedback especially if you want to make it in a highly competitive saturated market for character art.
