Rules:
>Do not take the bait or derail. Don't be a sperg.
>Don't fight about different male body types, ikemen/twink/bara. Nobody cares.

>No tits, no coochies, no female body ratio.
>Females are welcome so long as the image remains male-focused.
>Don't sperg if a feminine male (not femboy) is posted, ignore if it's not your cup of tea, keep in mind the nature of stylization and simplification in anime and cartoon art styles before you choose to derail the thread, though crit is welcome like always.
>If you have a question, post your work. Anons cannot help you without it.

Finished this and some nsfw art. Want to practice more backgrounds. It's more fun than I expected even if I'm inexperienced.

I actually really like all of the colors and how you but spots of warm and cool tones. I like the red one and how his green and stone teal-ish body contrasts with the red. These poses are so dynamic and fluid. I love the bird boy designs. They look so happy!

Pleasant jumpscare seeing my work on the thread thumbnail, super cool seeing everyone together!
>>7864447
The linework and colors are excellent. I agree that the pink one looks great, but I also like the blue one as well, they feel like two sides of the same coin. Second to last one is also really charming to me, it kinda feels like a jungle chicken with the head and tail feathers, really cute.
>>7867136
Love this guy. Nice muscle construction!
>>7867874
Congrats on finishing! I absolutely love the colors here. It has a whimsical retro feel that reminds me of a Jim Henson film, love that.

This exudes SOVL. Something about the colors makes it feel like I could've found this image in cozy old bookstore in an old fairy tale book.
>Himbo hero
YESSSSSSS himbo heroes are the most based, and it's fun to draw him being a goof :)

Is anyone willing to share their references folder or know where I can find a lot of references quick instead of going on pinterest for hours?
I need to learn how to draw men now after doing only women for so long
Not just real life pose reference but art as well,

Exactly what I was going for! Thank you. Please keep drawing your dark-haired ponytail guy.

Thank you, what a nice croc lab spy (?) boy!

He looks quirky in a good way, what's his personality like?

WIP because I've been a little sick between today and yesterday :c
>>7874169
Ganbare!!! Keep it up, fren!!!
And thanks!!! He's more of a public "hero" working for corporate interests than a spy, having pretty much been shoehorned into the job-- and his powers-- against his will.
>>7871562
These colors rock!!! They definitely add to his personality!!!

Thanks. I'm going to take some ibuprofen later and hope the headache goes away.
I like how your work has a trad-like feel to it btw.

Nice pose, but you'd definitely benefit from a scanner if you have access to one.

thank you, definitely was the right decision.

Thanks ! got a small lore for the fellah lol.
he's supposed to be a sky pirate, part of a duo, with his other being his bloodthirsty warmongering sister. He's the Chief morale officer of the crew, very popular with people but extremely useless in any combat despite his strength. yet he's still arrogant and has delusions of grandeur despite so.
also hardcore looking elf.....

that's an interesting idea! I have to think about it. His tail is essentially a giant lizard / serpent tail that changes color from green to brown. I also have an OC with antennae, so maybe horns are a bit too close to antennae? idk :S I'll have to draw Lizardman naked again since his lower half is all probably a bit weird. He tries to cover it up with clothing.
I like your long hair elf sword boy.
>>7876637
Lmao, I wanna see him and his sister. Sounds like a funny Boke and Tsukkomi-type duo.
Elfish guy is a good boy, promise.

I'm imagining a draconic / lizardly abdomen, so maybe no happy trail. I'll have to draw out a detailed naked reference. As of now, he came from a egg, and his mother is some giant snake / serpent queen. So no bellybutton either. But he has nipples because of his human blood lol.
>>7876637
Nice underwear lmao
>>7877671
Sorry about the art block. Sometimes watching pretty / weird movies helps me. I like how he looks angry and embarrassed lol, hot.

Your dedication to the bodysuit grind is astounding. I like the one on the right the best, though they all look insanely nice!!!

I like the shading and musculature here!!!

That is an insanely good angle, and the Spongebob underwear got a laugh out of me.

Uuuuhhh yes? Depends-- couldn't fight enemies for shit in the first arc but somehow salvaged new mech upgrades for the whole squadron.

Practice makes perfect, anon-- your rendering will improve in due time.
I think one improvement you could make would be paying attention to your hard edges and soft edges, but especially your hard edges. Looking at other artworks/IRL examples will help you understand how better to render human body. Sorry if this is worded poorly, but I hope this helps!

Ehehe... I like drawing him because he happens to be one of my best-developed characters in my world, which inspires me to draw him, and of course he has a fun design with both of his forms :)
