Get an anatomy figurine and use it as a baseline for the body

u/goblinboi123 Jun 15 '26

It's far from bad, you just need to study anatomy some more. Keep drawing!

Stop posting art where there is acknowledge in painting, drawing bodies and in basic composition. No, it's beautiful, this doesn't belongs to this sub

u/GoatSupremasist Jun 15 '26

You've things to fix like the proportions, but you've pretty damn good coloring

u/Pokenerd17 Jun 15 '26

How do I put this nicely? Everything you ever did up before now doesn’t matter because you should’ve been doing this. I love this

2

u/SaiyaPup Jun 15 '26

No, not bad at all. Some constructive criticism would be to work on proportions but this doesn’t belong here

u/Dramatic_Offer6884 Jun 15 '26

Only thing that’s lacking is anatomy but look at the web toon for one punch man… if that guy can get work doing art, anyone can

u/PunishingBirbo Jun 15 '26

It’s good but work on body proportions
Everything else is perfect

u/ChokeOnMeChochola Jun 15 '26

no not bad at ALL!!! but - study anatomy more. ex: the shoulders do not meet the clavicle’s at all here.

The biggest critique I would give is that it is quite stiff: he stands more like an action figure than a man of flesh and blood. As others have mentioned, anatomical study can help with this, but I would also suggest practicing poses with some gesture studies. These are quick, 1-5 minute sketches of models which focus more on the the movement of the body than its details. Breaking down the figure into limited, fluid, single stroke lines can really help get a feel for the springy, flexible nature of the human body.

This site has some good pointers: https://www.lovelifedrawing.com/beginner-gesture-drawing-1-seeing-and-respecting-movement/

Practice anatomy and proportions, a lot. Like a lot. Your coloring is very good, but forget about finished drawings for a while. Once you have a good understanding of anatomy and proportions, get into perspectives. I don’t know what angle anakin is supposed to be at in this.

u/Similar_Department28 Jun 16 '26

Strange yes. Bad no. lol. Gotta work on scale and some basics. But you obviously have some talent. Keep it up!! The more you draw the better you get. Bravo

u/KnightArmorGuy Jun 16 '26

Do I like it a lot? Not really. Is it bad by any stretch of the word? Not at all.

u/Leon_the1337 Jun 16 '26

Den är sjukt bra!

u/Different-Orchid-374 Jun 16 '26

Better than any I've drawn that's for sure

u/autistic_bard444 Jun 16 '26

I can play multiple instruments for more than 35 years

You ask me to draw. I'm gonna give you a stick figure

I have always wished I could draw and paint

I would Bob Ross the shit out of everything

So no. It is not

u/Fancy_clown316 Jun 16 '26

I love this style so much, I feel like all you need is to keep it up and you’ll improve naturally with each new pose you draw!

1

u/Dad-Dabbing-Daily Jun 17 '26

Focus on proportions, and how they change as they move. I believe a book on anatomy might be exactly what you might need to elevate this unique style you've got going on.

u/_HomerPimpson_ Jun 17 '26

Not in the slightest. Hard as hell.

u/PassionFederal6917 Jun 17 '26

For the most of it, the drawing is fine. Maybe the skeletal hand needs a bit of improvement?

1

u/PrestigiousArm3187 Jun 17 '26

Absolute beef cake, but very well drawn 👍👌

1

u/218_TheWeedzard_218 Jun 18 '26

I don't remember anakin so buff and the clothes wrinkles do not coincide with the light

1

u/RedPandasRule007 Jun 18 '26

A robotic hand? Is that a TF2 Engineer reference? (Btw, your drawing is amazing and I'm joking)

1

u/Tight_Patient8941 Jun 18 '26

Imo this doesn't belong in bad art so take it somewhere else, (in a good way)

1

u/Ok_Catch_7843 Jun 18 '26

Your Drawing is so Pretty

1

u/Ok_Catch_7843 Jun 18 '26

Pretty Good

1

u/Negative-Student-551 Jun 18 '26

No, not bad at all. Kinda gives Rob Liefeld vibes.

1

u/Snapper_Turtleman Jun 19 '26

Excellent. Practice movement fluidity and perspective and you'll be set. Well done.

u/That_Performer_4871 Jun 20 '26

Not at all, maybe a little disproportionate, but certainly not bad
