Build construct, don't draw with your feelings, this is the way.

A thread made by either a complete retard with a grudge or a samefagging cunt from sharty. How lovely. Can someone make a less retarded op?

I'm the guy who asked the abs question in the last thread, didn't expect it to cause such a shitstorm. Thanks for the replies I guess, here's some constructed midsections from what I understand.

I know, I’m working on proportions. Drawings are from Paul Richer, I’ll post the ref. Something about the way he draws them makes it very difficult to get them on the full page. I posted these last thread bc they’re from a different artist and are easier to understand.

>>7881602
Tell people that the shape of the abs are similar to two balls, the lower ball that connects to the pubis is bigger and it always goes downwards to the pubic area because that's literally to the part it connects. When you draw the pelvis area like a bucket it sort of looks like a dick.

zoomniggers discord chimp out of frustration and ignorance.

It's the beg thread, they will never learn to draw and they don't want you to learn how to draw either. They are only here to shit the thread and tribilize things, they will never learn to draw not sure why they even bother. I honestly think it's malice and not stupidity, no one chimps out like that because they are stupid, or do they? I don't know i had top tier education in a first world country.

Do more references. Actually, you know what? Fuck you. I don't have to help you. I'm sick of this shit.

>>7881616
It's just a way to simplify it because the two lower abs are bigger than the rest. I drew a bucket to represent the hips becuase the abs actually curve towards the bottom of the hips but that curve is barely visible in a straight on angle.

Not like it matters, these retards are doomed

You know i'm right. Close the thread faggot, little niglets are not welcomed, at least the retarded zoomers that are never going to make it tried to stand their ground, shame their entire generation was never taught critical thinking, the main thing that's required to learn how to draw.

Everything I draw has something off about it I can't figure out that always comes through when I'm done linearting. orz

>>7881749
Your underlying sketch brush size is too large compared to your linework size, this compounds badly on the finished piece since it accentuates the searching line effect of a sketch on something that's supposed to look finished, that's based on what I can see from your previous work.
There's also something odd going in with her neck, left (viewer's side) shoulder and his back shoulder + arm touching her shoulder (his arm at the back appears larger than the one closer to the viewer too and doesn't seem to connect to the shoulder), you also might want to erase that peek of his ear.
Good stuff though, looks really nice other than the small errors.

>>7881760
Ooh thanks! That will help a lot. Never heard of the "searching line effect".

>>7881763
Out of the top of my head Peter Han should mention this probably at the start of Dynamic Bible (the old version), should probably be in Vol. 2. Other authors mention this too but I forget who would other than Han.
It's a bit different than chicken scratching since it feels more like drawing a large line over and over again until you get something that feels right.

I'm assuming you painted some portions in greyscale with a soft brush, then converted to screentone?
If you want your image to look more like authentic manga, then don't do that. Use a full "sheet" of screentone, and carve it into the shape you want with a hard eraser or using the selection tool.

Completing a project is a skill itself, and if you're both having fun and learning, I don't see any reason to stop.

>>7881843
Have a goal. Learn iterative drawing, and the process of memorizing body parts/muscles and its rotations.
First and foremost, you NEED to be able to copy with at least 80% accuracy before you can reliably "construct" things from memory, and you need to have at least a basic understanding of perspective. If you can't copy accurately you won't be able to grab images from your mind and place it on paper without it looking inaccurate in the first place. If you're already satisfied with the accuracy of your copies then move on to construction.

Actually this really sounds like something I could use, do you mind sharing the name?

>>7881914
The one I use is called Screenzen.
Each of my infinitely scrollable apps gets 3 ten minute chunks a day, with a 10 minute cool down between, and a 60 second bootup time before they unlock. It's very customizable
I also keep everything scrollable off my home screen.

Results will vary depending on what kind of person you are. But this setup has pretty much kept me off of things like Twitter completely. I still let myself use 4chan but only for the generals I regularly have pinned.

The 3/4 one on top lacks the back part of his skull and therefore brain matter, but his face looks like a nigger's, so I guess it's anatomically accurate.
The front face on the right is asymmetrical, but then again many humans are such, and the position of the features / the proportions aren't wrong, so I guess it's passable.
The bottom one and the left one are pretty good.

i used to use 20 pixels per meter (1 pixel = 5x5 centimeters) for all of my ships, but for non-covenant ships i've started to use 25 pixels per meter (1 pixel = 4x4 centimeters). the covenant ships are all increased by 40% to make room for taller species like sangheili and jiralhane, so in practice my covenant ships are all 28 pixels per meter, and i quite like the enhanced detail so i've been trying to scale up my regular ships too.

here's a swatch of my skaven template i took from my foreverial incomplete eliksni sloop. i've fiddled with the HSV and dodge/burn. i redrew some of the wall corners and the shower to have angled walls instead of rounded.

i'll use this as the basis for the skaven ship, which is still being modeled.

That's a solid goal, I have attempted to do the same but sometimes fall out of love with what I'm drawing, and then I go for like a month or two just doing occasional sketches.
And for 12 minutes, that's looking like a great start.

I tried drawing torsos following Morpho.
As expected, it came out like utter shit.
Honestly, now that the book isn't really giving explanations but just showing rough drawings/sketchings, I'm not finding it very useful. I'm thinking of dropping it or skimming through it and moving to another one.
What do you guys think (both about my anatomy sketches and changing books)?

>>7882265
Your accusations are confessions, projections. You call others childish but you have nothing but infantile insults and refuse to think for yourself or look at the world as is, living in an imaginary utopia.
Be that as it may, anon's drawing is crap and I showed why.

>>7882232
The point of copying anatomy books is usually to improve your observational accuracy and give you a better feeling for "proper" anatomy through dozens upon dozens of these copies. That being said if you find it mind numbingly boring feel free to instead copy something you find fun. Pick any drawing you like and try to recreate it. And then do it again and again and again until you can copy with 90%~ accuracy by eye. Or find something else that's both productive to your improvement and personally enjoyable to you. The most important part of doing this hobby is persevering through the dogshit skill level phase without burning out and quitting after all

>>7882278
You're right. Thanks.

>>7882271
You are polishing a turd, but it has good traits

thanks chief
and ik that feel, inbetween my illustrations i always do some random bullshit paintings and sketches then go back to work on it, taking a few days breaks or whatever; all my illustrations have at least 8 hours on them cus idm taking my time since i like painting way more than drawing but theres still that feeling of "man this looks like dogshit why im wasting my time"

i guess the reason i can still keep with that goal is because i only started taking this more seriously in september and have 0 expectations for myself while keeping ridiculously high standards and consistency, so when things dont look retarded im genuinely surprised and keep going to see how it looks in the end (i give up alot of times tho)

anyway sorry for hte blog im a little drunk

>>7882332
I second what the other anon said. Do not listen to that faggot it's a pretty good drawing. That said the previous pose was much more dynamic in my opinion

>>7882332
Yes. The original pose is completely off balance. This one is actually plausible.

>>7882317
Learn to draw basic forms in perspective. A gear is basically just a flattened cylinder, with another cylinder carved out in the center and boxes or pyramids attached to it. Do drawabox, work through brokendraws free book, do artwod or anything else that teaches perspective, basic form and form manipulation. After that you will be able to deconstruct and reconstruct literally anything.

I get that, but I just cannot manage the perspective on the teeth. I can draw a cylinder, I can draw a box, I can draw a pyramid, I can draw a gear rack, but I can’t for the life of me bend that around into a circular gear.

>>7882356
to me the face features look they're tilted downward at an angle, but her hair makes her head look like it's straight-on 3/4. and i don't think the angle is so much angled to the right that you shouldn't be able to see some of her left eye

Nigga yours look believable. Do not waste your time on autismal details. Drawings should be believable, not realistic. If you are a beg you have hundreds of other things to sink your time into.

Yes, it's possible. But you'll still have to consciously try to improve with each drawing aka you'll still have to do boring studies.

>>7882398
anime is 90% realism especially the body

>>7882398
Sure there are people who grind out a specific thing, but the best Anime artists that inspired you probably genuinely enjoy drawing a wide range of subjects and find beauty in mundane and unusual things.

tried another ink project
it came out okay, but i messed up a few points (shack size, perspective is probably off as well) and the owl is scuffed.
feel like i should just use a ruler for some of the straight lines too
the ref: https://litter.catbox.moe/4pk9hd4qqp4s88uk.jpg

>>7882494
also could've use a different hatching method that would look better

>>7882494
The values of the owl need to be way darker my nigga

>>7882500
you're right, but i don't know sort the of stroke i should do/should've done instead while still giving the feeling of it's feathered form

>>7882494
I think the biggest problem here is the crosshatching on the wall. I thought I was looking at a wire fence at first. There should be more lines, or, you could just color it solid black.

>>7882514
yea that was something i feared. i wanted to do cross hatching but i doing straight lines like that causes that issue

>>7882515
It's kind of impressive how uniform you managed to make it.

I need someone to sit me down and just give me a list of things to draw.
Every time I open krita I just end up doodling torsos. I never progress to even approaching an idea of an illustration.

>>7882528
Here are some ideas:
>front view of a torso
>side view of a torso
>back view of a torso
>a torso in perspective looking up
>a torso in perspective looking down
>a torso in any arbitrary perspective
Don't come back until you have at least six new torso drawings.

Focus on effective practice. Do things that will teach you a lot with very little effort. Doing drawings like pic rel would give you a stronger understanding of gesture than what you’re doing now, especially since gesture requires a strong understanding of the underlying structures of the body.
