should I have put a greyer background, or less contrast? for less flatness, I mean

>>8308

Less contrast and a bit lighter on the lower black background portion, I believe a darker gray would work.

Edit:

I can't help but notice the back leg, I feel as if that contributes a lot to the flatness , alongside the fur between the front leg and aforementioned one. It seems a bit, flowing downwards too straight.

I am guessing this creature is supposed to be galloping, so in my mind the fur should be all over the place!

>>8319
Uh, which one, the left-had one? It's a front leg.

>>8321

The one in the back, right side.

not sure 'bout this

>>8505
I think it looks pretty great, actually. Different, somehow.

>>8506
yeah, but; like: shouldn't the reflection on the hair be white instead of blue? should the green reflections be less harsh? should the outlines be less visible? should the inner right thigh be shaded more? should the bottom of the cape be bright green, should it be black, or should it blend in the background color? should the face have stronger white reflections?

that's what I mean by "not sure"

>>8507

To address these particular issues:

No, I like the hair with blue reflections; it makes it seem more 'metallic,' which is not only befitting of the character, but also generally appealing to look at. I think the cape is too strong in colour. Or maybe it's just because it seems unrefined at this stage. I dunno, you'd have to work on it more for me to evaluate what I think about it justly. The inner thigh probably could be darkened, yes.
Outlines aren't an issue. Again, it's most noticeable on the cape, and to me, that seems like little more than a developmental issue.
I think you need to either fade the cape into the background, or put more work into the lower legs. That is my main issue with it. I think the face is really nice, and you should leave it as it is.

That's my two cents, I guess. I really like this one, and would like to see it fully finished.

>>8508

What Overlord said is pretty much okay.

You need to figure out what is your lightsource, and build from there, Artificial or Natural. Is it a lightbulb pointing at her, or just something else.

You might want to play around with the lighting effects coming out from the Necron runes all over her body.

Other than that, looks great as always.

File 132157234189.jpg - (312.84KB , 900x1080 , sup my niggas!.jpg )

I think it's better, but it still looks too inconsistent; cartoonish. I think the problem is with the outlines and the metal effects, but I haven't figured out how to make them something else than high-contrast black/color stripes

>>8524
Hrmm...

You're right. It does seem cartoonish, but I don't think it doesn't work for this particular image. It looks, I dunno, cleaner and maybe a little brighter than usual. The colours play a big part in this, but don't change them.

I think you need to refine the cape even further, particularly around the collar. This is, in my opinion, that which lets down the image the most. It just looks like an unfinished part. The metal of the legs looks a lot nicer and more realistic now. I noticed you have darkened those glowy green bits, which I think need to be re-lightened, too.

>>8528

I think he should try and balance the shine on the metal. It seems too perfectly displayed along the body lines, instead of actually coming from a lightsource.

For example the chest shine does not align with the one on the thighs, are they intentional?

>>8531
>For example the chest shine does not align with the one on the thighs, are they intentional?
I thought it made them look more round, I'll try to see how it works by aligning it.

>>8528
I didn't darken them, though, and I don't see what's wrong with the collar...

I'll also try to make the outlines less visible, just to see.

>>8540

Ah, or maybe it is the abdomen shine that follows the spine instead of the thigh shine pattern.

>>8523
Gladly.

It works on the butt and thigh, but less so on the upper body, I think, due to lack of contrast. It looks matte, almost. For a sketch, it's pretty good however, and I think the lollipop is a cute addition.

I am more worried about the thighs and ass, actually, because I'm afraid they don't follow the same light source

Well, although I doubt you're going to fix it, since it's a sketch, I'd say it'd be easier to fix the the lighting of body to match the arse/legs, since it looks less developed, and as a point of focus in the image, I think the butt should get priority anyway.

>>10007
Drawinganondude and the few concept artists I've seen streaming work the exact same way and at one point, I tried doing it, for a commission if I remember, but I simply couldn't figure out how to construct shapes within a black silhouette. It would require already knowing what it would look like before starting the silhouette, and I suck at this. If I don't know what to do, I just reproduce patterns and vaguely organic shapes without any visual consistency. I'm just not familiar enough with highlights and shapes to do this yet.

but even trying to do it has an advantage: it helps realizing how much you can fuck up anatomy.

>>10013

I have tried that as well, and encountered the same issue. It's not feasible for one as inexperienced as I to pull off with any true success.

Perhaps, it would help if you made a couple of quick studies on the character you wish to draw, and really get the main shapes worked out. Once those are painted into the silhouette, I am sure that the smaller details will be easier.

>>10018
the point is precisely to avoid having to do preliminary studies.

>>10019
Welp. That's a bit of a downer.

I don't know what to think of it.

>>10054

Seems the same to me. Probably because you have looked upon if for so long flipped the other way, this seems 'new' to your mind. If anything, that says to me that you achieved a sense of depth well.

>>10054

It is relatively the same, altho there is one thing I want to point out but I doubt it's much of an issue.

There's those two spires you see, the first one is fine, but the one in the background seems a bit out of place, or at least sticking out of proportion.

which model should I follow?

2B, I think. How 'logical' lighting, to me, comes second to how good it looks. To an extent, of course.

The shoulders and torso of all the others is dull and boring, yet on 2A, it shines, and I like it. However, 2A has something ugly about it. It looks, well, smudged.

2B shares many of 2A's desirable traits, but retains the appealing, blotched look of the other ones.

>>10526
don't pay attention to the crappy "toshop smudge" effect, those are just sketches, all that matters is the repartition of lighting.

I'd go with 2B , but there is something about her left leg that's bothering me.

Maybe it will come out better once you start detailing.

>>10528
I think so too, it doesn't look like it's going deeper in the picture;

Of course, cleaning it all up will make it appear more sensible, I hope; at least the edges will be properly distinguishable.

>>10970
unless I find out how to make it look more similar to Brom's art, I won't go further.

Yep it's the Diablo artist..

It's basic realism + FLAT.

Try to do everything real with detailings, like you've advised me on my Eldar's blades. It seems some features are lacking effort invested than others.

>>10973
nah, it's something more subtle.

Like, he uses outlines where it doesn't look realistic. And the way he shades things up is very peculiar, not merely realistic. And even his most simple, non-detailed paintings look more solid.

>>10974

I guess you are right, I mean, I can't figure Giger out for the life of me.

Have you tried blending in oil pastels?

>>10975
I haven't been using oil pastel since last year and I was terrible at it.

It /might/ work, but it'd require me a good year of training, and I feel that it would not really help me understand his technique better.`

As for Giger, it's airbrush, airbrush errywhere, and filters to replicate shapes. use custom brushes, with opacity dynamics, and avoid making lines/shapes collide (except at 90°). That's all I know about it.

Alrighty then, the best suggestion I can offer is for you to take the details overboard. And fix the minute differences such as the black "clothing?" on her abdomen, I am not sure if that is part of the garment or it's actual flesh, because it seems to DIG in, to the actual white flesh.

You should try and get some more details on those joints , specifically her wrist and elbows, right now , they seem a bit too abstract, giving them an actual mechanism would bring them out even better, and as the requester desired fingers.

Some realism on her skirt and mask would be great. But, save a copy of what you've got right now, before trying any of this. Might not be what's in store.

>>10977
I'm confused, now, they seemed to me like the most realistic and decent-looking parts of her, it was more the flesh that bothered me.

>>10978
confusion is a common side effect of living. I actually adore the flesh,though I was confused by the the way her skirt makes it look on one side as if the metal abdomen is dug into the skin, a rather cool looking thing in my opinion.

Unfortunately I am not an art student, so I will defer to the God-Emperor as far as techniques. The metal does seem the most ethereal part of the picture so far.

Okay, after taking some real-life references, I came to the conclusion that under direct lighting, skin shading wasn't as subtle and as deep as I thought.

I'll try to apply this in a few days.

Holy shit, if I didn't know better, I'd say that's pretty close to Muju!

>>11198
I'm totally trying to imitate her.

It irritates me to think that I basically have the competences necessary to draw about as well as her, but that I lack the... you know, when you do things easily and elegantly, without having to purposefully think about what you're doing, and that it ends up looking better this way...

>>11200

well, I don't know what to say, Maybe you should try and take up a request every now and then?

>>11201
I have three interesting requests to spend hours on saved on my harddrive, right now I am precisely working on what would help me reach her level, and I don't have the time to do more.

>>11202

Sorry , I should have probably mentioned on requests you are usually not catering to.

>>11203
That would be boring characters, mostly. And I find drawing SoBs pretty boring.

To me, it seems to have the same problem as Heinrich, Skull is a bit out of proportions, eyes are too close to one another and they are too "indented" if that makes any sence.

yes, that's also the feeling I'm getting but the problem is that when I try to place them wider apart it looks even stranger, or not really noticeable

okay, I tried to compromise: how is this?

>>11450

it's a step forward. I am having difficulties myself with the redlines I made on Heinrich , I am losing too much details I want to show off, because I have to shift his torso / arms...

>>11451
I suppose that the fact that I gave her that weird asian-ish facetype isn't helping; but I've seen weirder-looking people.

well, unless someone has avery clear idea of what should be done, I'm going to leave it that way lest I screw it up even harder.

Not sure if I'd say I was totally clear on what needed to be done, but I think the nose looks a little long as well.

derp

>>11559
what?

>>11560

Sorry, I was just doing one of those "What Anime does to Western style" kind of comparisons...

In regards to your question on how to get closer to Muju's style, maybe it would be a good idea to drop fetishism for medieval style armors, bulky platings instead of corsets, actual warboots instead of high heels etc ?

>>11561
oh, if it's merely a matter of design, then it's negligible, I'm only talking about the technical aspect.

Also
>closer to muju's design
>drop the fetish bits and put a more serious-looking armor
not so sure about that

>>11563
You could always start with working on how to draw the hip area so it at least looks semi-realistic.

>>11565
And undo that ass? Blasphemy.

>>11592
well, at least move the right leg further on the left to better account for the width.

>>11592
Not really "dat ass", just a mess, as it has been since I saw Technomancers work for the first time.

Muju's work has a much 'harder' edge than yours typically does, Technomancer. Almost every detail is outlined, however finely, whereas yours does not. This makes her art look more, well, I wouldn't say 'cartoony,' but it looks as though it belongs in a comic book or similar. Aside from this, your art is pretty similar, I'd say. If you want to imitate her better, I'd suggest trying to copy this fine 'outline' business.

>>11606
probably because the ass shouldn't be distinguishable from that angle, and because the other part of the hips seems absent, right?

>>11625
seems so.

Also, Jean Giraud/Moebius just died and that rustles my jimmies.

>>11627

The guy that made the Halo Graphic Novel?

awww

>>11628
I don't think so, no. Nihei did a short Halo comic, but he has nothing to do with Moebius.

No, I'm talking about the guy who is usually regarded as the greatest French comics author. While I agree that his contribution, talent, competence and influence are all outstanding, I still prefer Druillet, so, since this one isn't dead yet, my jimmies aren't too rustled.

Moebius and Nihei both wrote parts of the Halo Graphic Novel.
