Not quite aiming for being rated, not quite complaining. Catchall thread for drawfags of all skill levels. Not limited to digital art; can also include other physical mediums. Post about:
-Cool Brush Settings
-Wacky tips and tricks that weirdly work
-Tutorials
-Art Challenges
-Art meme formats
-Exercises that help the average drawfag not become a shrimp at a canvas
-OC/FC designs
-Request Redlines of your Art
Practice good opsec. Don't post anything that you're going to post to social media unless you want to be singled out and targeted by idiots. Report and ignore bait.

Does anybody else not bother paying attention to trends, or drawing challenges? I feel like even though it slows down the growth of your platform, it's ultimately worth it because the audience you end up building is there for your real vision

Anonymous 04/21/25 (Mon) 09:12:34 PM No. 485646

>>485643
Depends. I usually pay attention only when it's a meme that tickles my fancy, be it funny or creative. After about 5 or so identities cycled through on the net, I have only recently come to realize that just drawing what I like solidifies the fans, rather than attracting tourists to an everchanging gallery that is struggling to stay relevant.
Probably is better to have one central autistic fixation (original or based on something else) in my opinion.

>>485643
I did a couple in the past, and while I did see more engagement, the biggest problem is that I can't really make something if it doesn't already work with the characters, so I tend to make more original stuff instead.

Nona, what are you talking about? This is cute and you were a kid drawing stuff for a show you liked, basically every kid that likes to draw does it at least once. I wish I had any of those drawings from that time of my life, but I got incredibly insecure when I was a highschooler and threw all my kiddy art away out of shame. I get so mad every time I think about it because it's retarded to feel shameful over art made as literal kid and I'd love to look at it now kek

I like how well the warm and cold tones in his design balances out, very cool design. I especially like how expressive the bottom right bust is.

Picrel is the MC of a RPG Maker game I've been thinking about making for a while and finally forcing myself to get started. It's going to be a retelling of the Seven Little Goats but playing off the already horrific elements in the story (kind of like what the Grimms did with all their stories for no reason), very inspired by Dreaming Mary and Fausts Alptraum. Going for a much more simplified style than usual, still needs tweaking and the very ugly dress is a stand in until I figure out a nice patchwork pattern.

Hey nonnas, do you have any resources/books/videos/anything regarding color theory? I am doing a great job at using art references for anatomy and such, but everytime i try casting a light or shadows i end up feeling like i am colorblind. I get lost in all of it and i don't understand every single thing that i give up by simply adding flat colors and simplyfing my lineart. My friends told me to see light sources and shadows as shapes, but it makes no sense to me even though whenever I use references i divide everything by shape.

Color theory is one of the hardest things, next to composition, for me to handle personally. I amassed a bunch of tutorials (I will now proceed to spam the thread with) to try and get a grip on it, to no avail. Hopefully it will help you though… (I also tried taking notes that I'll clean up and slap on here at some point)

>Is it worth it to join artfight?
I don't think there's a downside in it. At worst you'll get art from medocre artists or none at all. You get to pick who to draw for too. As long as people tag their OCs properly, you can find a pretty solid selection of characters.
>Plus should I start posting my shit on shitter?
If you want. Ironically, I think Tumblr's pretty solid. Not as good as it used to be though.
I've started posting this year after dodging it for years. I'm part of a really obscure and dead fandom, abandoned by its creators and its corpse is filled with files and reanimated. Managed to get some traction after a re-drawing meme people made out of rage kek. Haven't had anything bad happen outside of like… bots? There are a LOT of horny bots.

For all the nonnies here who search for art resources there is one telegram channel that I found very useful.

I did Artfight for the first time last year, and sort-of got fucked because my ratio was 70% attacks to 30% retaliations. If you're going there specifically for art trades, just make sure to read your opponent's profile to see if they actually DO retaliate. If not, you're gearing yourself up for minor disappointment when your opponent doesn't give back (i.e. attacking the guys with thousands of twitter followers).

I like having a crutch. It makes that program as unique as one's favorite marker brand or type, or even like a brand of modeling clay that goes bankrupt. I always thought digital artists were held to an oddly high standard that holds similarities to our canvas counterparts.
I know this probably has nothing to do with your thrown away comment, but I hope you create beautiful works of art with this tool.before you ban yourself nona.

This mentality will get in your way, at what point is the line drawn? Don't flip the canvas that's too convenient of a digital tool, don't resize anything you can't do that traditionally, don't use layers there are no layers on paper.
You're already drawing digitally it's already a crutch, use every tool available to make the art you want to make and don't feel bad about it.

Yes and no. For advanced artists who know they're capable of doing things the long way already and have nothing to prove, it's not more noble in some moral way to make things harder for yourself. That's not the lens I'm talking through. I'm saying in practical terms as a beginner:
In simple programs you have to be a lot more conscious of what you're doing and make choices with more deliberate intention, and the choices that constraints force you to make are often more interesting. The more features on a program the more I find myself in the trap of falling into autopilot, in general a lower default level of attention/awareness of what I'm doing. Which you kind of need to do for a while before you develop that sort of intuition that means you can do it subconsciously.

I was deluding myself more on the idea of a women's-only /ic/ and was thinking, would it be a carbon copy? With similar threads but with less griping allowed? I'd assume that it would have more tact overall since troons and moids would be out of the equation, and women here seem to be a lot more encouraging overall. Not to say it will detract all negativity, it would just feel more… I don't know, mentally stable? Being able to talk about art freely without the possibility of insane coomerism driving numerous threads sounds like a dream.

Honestly? Time and practice. Understanding the underlying forms of what you're drawing is the most important, as well as studying IRL and whatever you're trying to achieve stylewise.

Sorry if this is somewhat of a generic answer, but that's pretty much it imo (though IDK if my opinion is worth a damn on that cause my initial sketches look like ass most of the time).

The steps I'd take back then to make art of that nature are picrel. It's lineart but with a far less care put into the details. I hope this helps, nona.

Does anybody have a preferred method of organization for OC information?
I currently use a discord server to jot down on the go ideas and catalogue images for later reference, but I've reached a point where I just do not feel confident about the longevity of the platform in a usable state.
My preference would be a program that functions akin to a wiki.

It's the quintessential OC hub for most people. Alternatively there is just using ArtFight. Issue with that is there are limited numbers of images and the types allowed. Toyhou.se is invite-only, but I think people just post their invite codes whenever.

Throw away proton mail in Friend Finder maybe? Though I'd be careful, Toyhou.se has tranny jannies and though they're generally dead activity-wise you don't want a snitch.
Speaking of AF, I wonder if here might be safer to set up a tag? I was thinking of posting a encoded link to a blank html with the encoded tag on it and then wiping the site after 24-48 hours.

Trying to paint a bit after several weeks into lineart hell. I feel mildly rusty, but that's what drawing more is for.

>>490020
Thank you! For the textures, I just run a hatching brush over screentones, and it gives it a little more "oomf," so to speak.

I downloaded and played around with a lot of brushes from the Clip Studio asset store before I found one I was pleased with, but my process for adding texture to my images goes like this:
>fill in screen tones for flat colors
>set color to transparent and run over with hatching brush/texture brush of your choice to add texture

It feels loads more pleasing to the eye than just plain old tones and cel-shading, and the idea came to me after looking at how my favorite mangaka renders. Just experiment and look at lots of manga you like until you find something that tickles the neurons and try to copy it/put your own spin on it.

>context
TLDR is that it's a sci-fi capeshit universe, and this one-shot is set at the very beginning of it. Left is my fishgal OC, Elise, who is not very good with her powers at first, and the guy is Blink, a teleporter vagrant.

The tutorial example is a bit different imo, since it's obvious he at the very least copy pasted parts, which isn't wrong or "bad". The guy is impressive as hell, but he is using a different approach in that tutorial than in your vid. He's still working hard, but nonas weren't wrong in that there were shortcuts taken in his digital tutorial.

Last I'm gonna post about this because I don't want to derail further. That's not what nona said. And I'm showing he was capable of inking bgs without 3d reliance in the youtube vids. His tutorial could have just made you use 3d from the start but doesn't, he goes through the process of giving you a better way to visualize perspective without making a 3d model of it. I am quite certain he didn't rely on 3d for either tutorials esp since this tutorial has been out before CSP asset bashing like other anon said. And yes tracing 3d is a tool way before csp but I stand by my point. I'm just frustrated because of people claiming an artwork was made with AI or some super tool because they don’t realize people with pure skill, mastery and patience exist.

Artfight moderation is quite harsh. I think it was last year or the one before, but anons posted on AF with the tag "pastures" to identify each other. It was going well until a hypocritical tumblrite snitched and literally everybody using the tag or who even interacted with someone using the tag was banned.

Nonis I need advice. I used to be a huge copycat when I was a teen. Like the ones skin walking brujoari's characters and art style. I don't know why I used to do that (well, I tend to get deadly obsessed with specifics subjects) but now I feel shame and I want to move on and do my own thing.
I contacted the artist I used to skinwalk and I ended up changing my character. But I still feel a bit guilty, I think should change more.
There's also that, I used to get adoptables and many of them are my now main characters. But I've changed my mind on them, I feel it's plagiarism. I feel I should care less and just move on but I'm anxious.
Would giving the characters a revamp be enough? Do you truly own characters you get from adoptables?
I never bought any character really, they were gifted from online friends.

yeah thats the point, unless there's some shitty TOS or something similar
i guess you should think more about what you will use these characters for, you should know wether redesigning those characters is enough or not, you can redesign them, change their names and never tell anyone if you want

she was honest with me that the close similarities made her uncomfortable and gave me advice on how the character could be more different. I showed her the end result and she told me it was better now.

>that's the point
pretty much, but I've been wondering how copyright laws actually work.
my characters now just look inspired on the adoptable pictures though. I think there's less they can do about it.
there's was just this persistent fear that if someone finds out, they could accuse me of ripping off a drawing I found online

plus online friends are gendies, and hate "proshippers". I've changed my opinions, and I feel there will be conflict about it.

Question: a bit schizo and perfectionist on my end, but how do you go about developing and learning to draw the art style inside your head? Is it possible to draw something that is 1:1 exactly like the image you capture in your mind or is that impossible to ever replicate no matter how good you are?

Anonymous 05/20/25 (Tue) 01:35:36 PM No. 497784

>>497688
I think it's impossible. That's why we're on this journey of learning to draw and getting closer to the image in our head. I don't know about anyone else, but that style in my mind also changes over time as I'm exposed to more and more art. Once we get past the hurdle of hand-eye coordination and fundamentals, it becomes a game of grabbing smoke. But I may be full of shit as I focus primarily on recreating styles that already exist.

>>497688
imo it's entirely possible, it just takes experience, good draughtsmanship, and being able to maintain a clear, consistent image of something in your head (even if you rotate it or it changes in some way). I can't give much specific advice, but for me I stopped feeling like I wasn't getting what was in my head onto the page during a period where I was putting a lot of time into observational drawing, line control exercises, technical drawings, animation, and generally working on project bibles. It kinda just clicked one day and I haven't felt the frustration or disconnect like I used to since

>>497784
It's natural for the style in your mind to change over time, especially when you're still in the earlier stages of learning, expanding your visual library and more easily influenced, having to juggle the act of growing as an artist and being consistent in your vision and work. It can, of course, also change simply because you want to change it kek, or because a given project requires a different style

>a game of grabbing smoke
>I focus primarily on recreating styles that already exist
Do you break them down, analyse what makes a style? Figure out what is and isn't allowed to occur within them, their patterns and unique components? Replicating styles becomes easier the more you take them apart, they become a rule set that you funnel your imagination into as you put pen to paper, rather than you needing to match your mental image to them from the outset. It's sort of like how once you get to a certain point, you can visualise construction on the page as you draw rather than drawing it all out first. Takes a bit of work, but also very doable

Thank you both for your valuable input. The art style in my mind is like a fusion of more realistic but stylized manga, manhwa and western comics, usually white and black with lots of lines and shading, but can be watercolored or digitally colored at times. I get the concepts and theory of art, but I could never figure out the practical part to actually achieve that art style, I just don't have what it takes I guess. But again, thanks for the answers nonetheless!

How do you create a consistent front, side and ¾ view face? Like some sort of reference to come back to that is consistent. I've heard of artists using 3D models or sculpting or using dolls, but what if I want the pictures of a face as my reference? Do I just look up the person from different angles?

Stupid maybe, but your post made me feel a lot better. I have hand eye coordination worse than most, and I don't see discussion surrounding the learning curve on this. I was beginning to think I would struggle with this forever.
>>497841
Nta obviously, but thanks for the detailed post. I've been cobbling together ways to practice from the resources in art salt, but your post helped me piece together more ways to help myself. I feel like a big hurdle is trying to understand what I'm looking up in the first place.
Can I ask what you think of drawabox? I've seen people recommend it, but not too many reviews except from those who said the course was discouraging and quit. Anons in art salt talk about it sometimes, but more about individual exercises or how they think it's a waste of time kek.
>>497923
>I just don't have what it takes I guess
I feel like you were looking for an external reason to give up. The second anon even gave you what was pretty much a step-by-step on how to do what you're asking for.

Sorry for the abstract picrel. But I think good lineart might utilize making the ambient occlusion out of the lines! I will draw and post something else soonish. But nonas, I think I'm figuring it out!

>especially when you're still in the earlier stages of learning,
ayrt I wouldn't consider myself in the early stages of learning by any means, funny enough. I don't wanna huff my own farts either, so I can't exactly describe where I am, skillwise. I have no idea how most people judge that.. But I think it should be all about constantly expanding one's visual library! It's fun, honestly.
>Do you break them down, analyse what makes a style? Figure out what is and isn't allowed to occur within them, their patterns and unique components?
I do! I find it easier than trying to figure out my own style. I think my own style (art drawn without another artist's style in mind) comes out in the "just draw this thing you want to exist" way, like an OC or one of my pets from memory though.
>its sort of like how once you get to a certain point, you can visualise construction on the page as you draw rather than drawing it all out first.
I think this part might be a case by case basis; all these years and I can't really trust myself to freehand and not lay down a base sketch. It makes the overall drawing more logical, so I figure why ever skip the step.

I use guidelines. I'm sure there are some errors in this method, but this is what I do for character ref sheets!
>>498279
ayrt >>495999 I THINK it's the parts that are the darkest value; parts where light doesn't do a lot of bouncing and stuff? I'm still learning, but those parts you can just use the lineart to cover.

Thank you sooo much! These are my side project characters. When I need a break from working on my main webcomic I like to draw moody art of these two and vignette comics. Its basically a slash romance with drama and sci-fi where they travel around space and do random things. In that piece I just wanted to draw them both with long hair and the scene is in a prison, having a plotting conversation together

on a more positive note im actually happy i can actually try and draw a man unlike before. Back to practicing until im inspired again yay

If these look familiar, it's because I've posted them in the art rating thread a while ago before this thread existed. Anyways here are my shitty drawings, described by someone as "medieval tapestry art style" once and I kinda like the description. Lots of edgy shit I made as a teen inspired by Bleach, Junji Ito, and metal music. Then some random sketches I made when I was bored. The dragon was for my little sister's art homework I helped her with. China called and they're suing me for ruining a cultural symbol of theres. Jokes aside I'm planning on drawing some metal song/concept album lyrics for Halloween this year in a similar way to top and middle right. Might post it here if I'm happy with it.

So! The stabilizer has several different instances. It's super strange? (hoping you use the english version; I tried helping someone using the French version and it did not go well LOL)
>File > Pen Pressure Settings (J)…
That allows you to change the pressure overall for the entire program. But!
>Click a brush >Tool Property window >Click the wrench icon > Correction > Stabilization
There are several settings here!
>Stabilization
Makes a delay the higher it is.
>Adjust by speed
I haven't managed to get this one to work right, but I think it gets more of a delay in drawing the line the faster you go?
>Stabilization mode
Specifies! Pretty self-explanatory
>Post correction
It will readjust a line after you've drawn it, with more bars = more correction. Sometimes it does overcorrect though, so it would depend on your use for that brush.
>Taper
More bars is more post-draw tapering.
>Enable snapping
Snaps to rulers, grids, perspective lines, etc.
I don't know anyone that does tutorials on this but be sure to check the CSP help forum if you have a question that was horribly answered here kek
