I took out my surface pro and drew something with SAI 2 today. I'm not totally satisfied with, it and there's some obvious issues (the face and left arm are the most noticeable) but I wanted to get back into the groove of digital art, so it's fine for now if it's not perfect imo.

Thanks guys! I love that you love 'em

Looks good, ProgramGamer- especially for being out of practice.

[ProgramGamer]

Thanks! I've done a few more drawings in the past few days, but here's the most recent one:



I've mostly done busts though, so I want to move on to trying posing and anatomy.

Something I did for a friend I wanted to cheer up :3

The images I posted before are the results of a bit of practice I, myself, was doing earlier. If you're interested, I can link you to the videos I used

Hey, I like this rough ink brush brush:

[ProgramGamer]

Oh yeah, that would be super helpful, thanks! Nice sketch there too!

Also, I'd forgotten how much I used to like drawing, so it's nice to get back into it. I'll try doing it regularly from now on!

[McMutton]

Thanks!

I've mainly been looking at two channels: MegaMegaMike and Proko.

Proko's video on the

really helped me improve heads and faces- it's a super good method. That one is part 1, and you should be able to find 2 and 3 pretty easily. Other good ones are

and This One

MMM's stuff is a bit on the lewder side, but you know how good those types are at anatomy. This Video and This Video helped me get torsos and legs down quite nicely- his technique is pretty solid.

And here I'll just list a few miscellaneous ones that helped a bit:

And thanks for the links!

Yeah thanks for the links, those will be useful for me as well.

Hey, I like this rough ink brush brush:

By the way, that's a gnarly sword! Very nice.

[McMutton]

Yeeeees! Improvement for everyone!


And thank'eh!

Not the final version, but maybe I should stop on this stage...

[velocirection]

08--n7.r6-79.84.1337, great work! I love the style, pretty color choice, very expressive lines. I admire when artists can make lines say so much(especially the skin fold lines around the elbow and chest or how the knee lines do most of the "heavy lifting" of defining the knee)

As for me, here's a screenshot showing my current game's style:

I'll be honest, I'm not a fan of it either, but still I love the lines. I wish I could get mine to look that nice but I suck at it and rely on the curve tool in MSpaint for my in game character art XD

Oh that reminds me, here's a small part of a higher res art I did last week...

(Coincidentally, he has a hat w/ ribbon)

And also, another thing for my current game~

What exactly can you say? My English is not very good, and I'm not sure about the context of your comment. Is it good or bad?

[Schoq]

There's no nice way to express why it's making me uncomfortable; it reads to me as an unsettling cross between an adult woman and a sexualized toddler

[Cobralad]

yeah, it pretty much looks like a child with weird detailed armpit nipples, toddler feet and man arms.
If youre going for stylised sexy chiby you should simplify arms, feet and definitely not draw detailed bikini area stuff. Look up dragon half or other animes, even ones with nudity try to stay away from detailed nipples.

Oh, now I see. Well, what can I say, I didn't plan to draw a toddler. And I don't see the toddler on the picture. I just wanted to draw a character in chubby/kind of dwarf style.

But thanks for explanation.

you should

I should? Why? Only because in some anime artist decided to draw like this? Sorry, but I don't see any logic in this.

[Cobralad]

whats is the logic of having realistic nipples but no nostrils?

It's my choice as author. You can see in this logic or not, your choice.
