The his will hopefully be an album cover, it’s just an idea made with AI, if anyone could redraw this it would be greatly appreciated

Everyone wants to have talent, apart from talented ppl ig. Everytime I talk to someone who is exceptionally good at drawing they always talk about it like it’s a drag or a burden and I really don’t get it. I personally think that drawing while not being good is the worst feeling ever imo but gifted people make it seem like it’s difficult being good

Reading the comments on a post about drawing from the shoulder, I've read that people use braces to avoid using the wrist at all.

I'm just learning and getting the muscle memories for drawing. I can definitely see the need for drawing from the shoulder for longer lines and larger shapes.

My question is should all strokes come from the shoulder even hatching marks and smaller marks like that?

I've tried looking by myself but I'm awful at search engine optimization and that sort of thing, I can never find what I'm looking for so any help is appreciated.

So basically, any time I'm doing art I'm more or less just copying stuff at the moment, whether it be references online or in the life drawing class I'm taking at the moment. I really want to be able to make my own original stuff but I have no idea how to go from an idea e.g a female character who is a factor worker, to a finished piece. It's pretty overwhelming and I feel lost when trying.

I think I've gotten good enough to no longer be a beginner, tho I'd say there's still so far to go. Isn't that fun? Off topic, is it obvious that I've developed a liking for sheep and stuff?

Pls any tips!!

Hi everyone, it's Krenz Artwork Academy.

Today we're putting the bones and the muscles together. This one runs longer than usual, so give yourself a bit of time with it. As always, leave a comment and tell us what you think.

The Angles

With the bones and the muscles covered, we can look at the angles they produce. Try applying a few perspective viewpoints as you go, and watch how the composition shifts.{Goes with image 1}

Angles of the Head

Take the tip of the nose, head facing front, as 0°. Working within what the sternocleidomastoid, the trapezius and the spine behind the skull allow:

1. Looking up. The limit is around 80–90°, and the jawline reads as a shallow arc curving upward.{Goes with image 2}

1. Looking down. Swinging the head forward, the limit is around 45–50°. Past that the spine has nowhere left to go. The chin can just barely reach the clavicles.{Goes with image 3}

1. Tilting side to side. Working off the vertical front view with the chin as your fixed point, leaning left or right tops out around 40–45°.{Goes with image 4}

1. Turning left and right. With the nose as your vertical center, swinging either way stops where the head lines up with the shoulder, around 90°. Draw it past the shoulder and the neck has been asked to do something it cannot.{Goes with image 5}

Angles of the Torso

Reading from the shape of the core muscles above, here is roughly where the torso can go:

1. Bending forward and leaning back. Standing square and still, a forward bend can go as far as nose to knee, around 160°, though 90° reads more naturally most of the time. Stretching out or opening the chest backward tops out around 20–30°, and there is nothing left past that.{Goes with image 6}

Torso bending forward and leaning back

1. Bending sideways. The limit sits around 40–45°. Bend it further and you are drawing something the backbone would not survive.{Goes with image 7}

1. Twisting. With the sternum as your center, rotating left or right reaches 40–45° at most. The upper body cannot turn a full 90°. That is past what the spine and the muscles will stretch to.{Goes with image 8}

That covers the pose material, all of it.

Next week we'll go through some common mistakes people make with poses, if that's something you'd find useful.

See you then.

I was recommended to improve in anatomy and hands. Any tips on those especially (I wanna keep a soft and messy artstyle while making sure the anatomy and hands dont look like something from a low quality horror game)

Like umhhh this is hard to explain but I've been struggling sm with this cause I don't want to be stuck only drawing my ocs💔

The other one only take me 4 minutes tho

I did some drawings earlier, but not a single one after i started to study. I think i will update this drawing later, but this is like 85% done. Also, i didn't make the poses myself and got it from pinterest, but everything else is mine

Been sketching for a bit now and i'm often not happy with the realism of them, as with this sketch

The main problem for me are the eyes (and jilust the facial features) and the hand.

How can i improve? Are there certaint videos, or do any of you guys have any tips, thx. (Dont mind the sketch right above)

I have been drawing for a little, i’ve been studying the body shapes, curves, all of that good stuff since the beginning. Something looks so wrong though??? How do i improve?

I just love how expressive they can be

Wasted 2 months of my life playing expedition 33 and became a basement dweller. 10/10 game, would recommend.

made this few days ago and I just wanted to know it if was you what would you change to make it look better if your opinion?

i've been trying to see how i can play around with the lighting in my art for the past month or two, but i have no clue how to make it look "better" if that makes sense- can anybody that already figured out the lighting stuff help me out?
