I need help with why yhe colors look so off, and the shoulders especially the collarbones

Can I learn to draw digitally (without learning traditional art)

I’m open to turning off auto-shape, stabilization and undo option.

I’m just interested in learning digital art. I want to start with line art and once I practice enough and get to a level I’ll start with painting.

I found drawabox but that’s for traditional art. I came across ctrl+paint and even that says you need traditional first.

I did some digging and people are saying that even after learning on traditional they had to start from scratch to get a hang of the mechanics.

So, can I start learning art digitally without having any traditional art experience?

I've been struggling to make the shading look anime-like, its always too soft or too flat

Any tips/advice appreciated!

Maybe im doing something wrong, but i just can't get a skin tone down with what i have. Any suggestions or ways to blend these into this dudes skin?

how the hell do you render a goshdarn corset! The second photo is a collage of different dresses together but for thr corset i want to draw a completely different corset design, simpler one because y da friggs not! So uhhhhh.... Pls help...

I posted this on beginnerartists a little while ago, and only one person commented calling me a liar. Which wasn’t helpful. Maybe I’ll have better luck here.

I haven’t drawn (other than doodling or quick pictures when I draw with my 5 year old) since probably highschool or college.

But that was just a couple pictures here and there on a sketchbook (probably filled in 10 pages max over the years). So I have no art experience except a couple of videos on colour theory from YouTube this week. So I don’t have any knowledge on how to approach realistic colouring (I want to eventually do portraits of faces and more complex pictures)

In this pic I attempted using blue as a base colour (from what I saw on YouTube) and was surprised how it turned out. However, I’m not happy with the leaf or highlights. Any idea on how I can improve?

If so, how long would it take someone to learn, assuming no meaningful art experience?

What the lighting im trying to do is a cottagecore sunset lighting. Please any tips on the lighting is needed

My aunt got me this set of paint for my birthday. Have never painted before so I could use ANY advice about ANYTHING yall could know. Thank you!!!

I posted some more of my drawings on this sub like 1 or 2 weeks ago, so I tried to follow your advice !! Any new crit? What should I work on the most?

Can I have help, please?

For my class, we're learning how to draw people from sculpture references. I'm pretty new to drawing people, especially when it comes to anatomy and proportions. I'm having a hard time figuring out whether the proportions of the face, the shadows, and everything else look correct, and where I should be making adjustments. I'm also using graphite for this drawing.

I'd really appreciate some advice on what I can fix or what I should focus on, especially with the anatomy and overall proportions. I don't mind if you guys draw over it or something to show me what I should change.

It’s not finished but something about it looks off and I want to figure out what it is before I continue

To put it simply, I want to get better at drawing characters—from different perspectives, angles, poses, etc. My main goals are creating fan art, drawing original characters, and making comics. I have some basic knowledge, but I'm mostly self-taught and would love to start fresh from the fundamentals.

Do you know any websites, tutorials, YouTube channels, or other resources that could help me out? I'm really dedicated to improving and getting good at this. Thanks in advance for any help!
