Bare in mind it was the first time painting over plastic and this normally isnt my style, just wanted to try something new
Lets draw something and post hoe much you change, either in style, color use or something like that
![Combattler_hyouma_ambassador[1]](https://i.4cdn.org/ic/1585969097385s.jpg)
Post up whatever you made, sketch, finished, whatever, just show that you actually did something today.
The more I work it, the more I feel like I should just drop the small pixel stuff and make it bigger. Damn. Any pointers guys?
Do you know any rules or tips when drawing big cartoony eyes or expression?
Anime (In general) seems to just change the face, but doesn't really squish the head
I needed something to draw while traveling next year and people said this is a must have, even some nips. Picked it up and used it for a few hours and i cant fucking stand it.
To the anons that use this shit, how the hell can you put up with this? Am I missing something here?
I've zipped some of these sets to make them easier to download, especially if you download them from your iOS/iPadOS device.
Enjoy!

Was it worthwhile to go? How much did you improve from when you entered vs when you graduated? How much of that improvement was due to teacher instruction and how much of it was just due to drawing a lot? How easy was it to get useful, personalized critiques on your work?

Strive for quantity AND quality.
Anime Studying:
>Copy anime references exactly and draw them from memory. Use illustrations, screenshots, anime figures, 3D models, etc.
>Don’t copy recklessly. Use construction, color theory, and other fundamental concepts to rehearse a drawing process that you can later easily manipulate for original artwork.
>Post all of your anime studies. Post even when you’re told not to. Create an art community that actually draws and improves together instead of just talking about it.
>Number your attempts and link to your previous posts.
>Critiquers should lead by example by posting their studies.
General Anime Style Discussion:
>Questions about achieving certain styles/techniques/compositions etc.
>Drawing methods, study habits, resources, tutorials, tools, software, etc
>Be specific and try to post a sample of your study attempts before asking for help.
Keep most of your personal works for /alt/ or the other critique threads. Here we should be drawing copies from good anime styled references to mindfully up our mileage, internalize appealing aesthetics, and learn from each other’s processes and knowledge.

Basically reverse image searching literally found me the the reference photo first instead of the anime paintover.
I don't know what to do next. If you're a pro what are you currently doing to grow? what's your next milestone.
Pictured is a weirdly skinny/muscular third world construction worker
So I would appreciate if there was any video courses based on loomis' work.
>still havent drawn anything today
I want more sculptures like this. Similarly looking drawings/paintings/art is good too.
Is this a style at all?
I have a feeling I've really seen something like this.

Which one is superior? I dont care about mobility.
This amazing artist has really stunning piecess of artwork, from the nature of their descriptions ("Ink is my blood") I suggest they are all made with Rotring. But, some lines are so clear that I wonder, maybe she used Illustrator and just made them look like that? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't seen such masterpieces done with Ink.

Which is best for learning?
Pretty much all of my recent work has been "graphic" in nature (graphite, ink, charcoal...) and I attend a mf'in Academy of Fine Arts. I have years of practicing even my general drawing skill until I can get good, but I'm really unsure how to start with any type of painting.
Most of my experience with color has been digital (and I need to get back on that soon), but every shot with acrylics has looked kinda terrible. If somebody could name a good resource (books, posts, classes I could torrent or w/e) for a beginner in this, I'd very much appreciate it.
