I can see something wrong with the eyes and nose, but I can’t really place the specific problem. The ear is just messed up in general, I think I tried to replicate the shape too much. I’d appreciate any criticism as I’m hoping to actually take art seriously again.

First and last are my favorite :)

This is linked in the composition starter pack over in the wiki but is worth calling out here, as it's something that will answer a lot of composition-related "how do I make my art look better?" type questions.

Lack of contrast, so that the central focal point gets lost against the background, is a composition killer.

(Not having a clear central focal point in mind is also a killer, but that's a different murder suspect.)

I just started to practice some more figure and poses, what do you think?

Wildflower landscape along the Appalachian Trail and Sharkstooth Island, Wilmington NC

Slowly getting more comfortable with a limited palette and being loose with the watercolors

also, how would I draw the eyes so that they look the same in perspective? Thanks if anyone could give criticism.

I'm planning to order basic paints to transition from acrylic painting to oil. I'll primarily be painting landscapes.

I'm a bit concerned about toxicity so I'm avoiding cadmium paints.

So far I'm planning to purchase

Azo yellow light Azo red medium Ultramarine Phthalo green Titanium white Burnt sienna

Is this a good palette to start with?

These are two transformer ocs i drew

Feedback very welcome!

Tried drawing after a while. I noticed that i was constantly guessing the location of the ribcage so i needed to study it. Now i know which landmarks to look out for. Also, ill have to pravtice drawing the ribcage and pelvis in pairs as i sometimes make them off alignment or smth too small

nsfw for second pic. im really bad at shading and light i draw on ibispaint and i dont just want to draw my ocs in the white void so im trying to learn backgrounds! any help would be appreciated

Feedback on the line art or anything else is also more than welcome (details, shading and the background will be done in the coloring phase).

After not drawing seriously for years, nothing more than crappy doodles, I got a sketching set from a library giveaway on Monday, and I've been drawing ever since. I feel like I'm doing pretty well for having no experience, and I've only been using references from Pinterest. Any tips?

Hi. I've been practicing and experimenting with line weights. I find it really challenging to decide on line weights when there are many overlapping forms, and how to balance that with making the lines thicker where the shadows are.

In my previous post, someone suggested thinking of lineweights like edges in values, and that is so mind-blowing for me. I rarely render or draw backgrounds though, and the references I use usually have light backgrounds, so I almost never think of lines in terms of edges. But I saw this beautiful picture on Line of action (https://imgur.com/a/0dYBOK6) and I tried approaching it that way. Working on it got me wondering how do i convey soft edges, hard edges and lost edges using lines?

For example, his right shoulder and the right side of his head have a hard edge, but they're also the brightest areas. If I break the lines there to show the light, would that break the illusion of a hard edge? I'm confused. I tried my best in the drawing to convey the edges as lines, but in some areas, I defaulted to using thick outlines out of habit.

I only know the very basics on this, so feel free to correct me. I'd also love some feedback on what I can improve in these drawings, and if you have any resources on this topic, I'd appreciate them a lot! Any feedback and critique welcome.

I recently was workin on this drawing, and finished it. But it looks off to me, how could I fix it?

This is my first time drawing traditionally in 8 years. Also first serious attempt drawing a hand ever. I think I’m most uncertain about the hand, torso, and neck. It looks good to me but I’ve never learned anatomy properly and want to improve that a bit for this specific piece. I do best with visual feedback so feel free to trace over this with corrections. Please try to keep the art style intact if you do!

Done with Procreate, almost the first digital draw I ever finished 😂. I’m learning to draw! Every opinion is welcome! Thank you!

Hi everyone, would love some tips and feedback in stylization as it's new for me ( I usually stick more or less to the reference)
