ART POSTING

(Subject not going through....Third time's the charm...??)

Art stuff thread starting...NOW!  If you draw stuff, you can post it here! I draw in a sort of anime/manga/toon style, but if you don't, don't let that stop you from posting your stuff!  I would love to see other people's art so post away!  They can be OCs, fan art, or just random stuff.  You can use any media, including digital, like I do!  Just to let you chatterboxers know, I started this thread so we can share our tricks of the trade with each other.  Feel free to: ask questions about how to draw certain things, post techniques, share art, and mostly HAVE FUN!  If you draw your OCs, feel free to share information about them such as their names and that sort of thing.  Same goes for fan art since not all of us know where these characters are from.  You don't have to be polished with your art.  I myself am just a beginner at anime/manga/toon.  I'm not good at hands so if any of my hands looks particularly cruddy, you know why.  I also struggle sometimes with feet so same goes for that.  If any of you know how to draw a particularly good hand or foot, feel free to share your trick for it.

Going to post a picture of my OC, Tuxedo, if this post goes through okay.

I don't have an art class. I just figure things out on my own. It's surprisingly enjoyable and rewarding. Thanks, Lap!

I was experimenting with drawing more... creepier I guess you could call it. Hopefully this will go through. With my phone, ya never know. Anyway, this drawing's a work in progress. Should I color it or just shade it? Thanks in advance to anyone who replies!

Ooh, nice! I like her pose, and her eyes are really well drawn!

I draw a lot of... dark stuff, and I usually just like to shade it. I make every line really thin, then weight the ones where the shadow falls, maybe adding some cross-hatching where needed.

If you do color it, though, I think it would look just as great— maybe avoid bright colors and stick to a more muted palette.

Thanks! I had a hard time with the mouth and legs, but oh well. 

Yea I do too. I'm not good at shading, so if you have any tips, they'd be appreciated! That is the next piece I'm working on though. I'll post another pic when I'm done.

Thats an awesome pencil sketch!

If you were to color it, you should either do dark and pale colors for a scary look, or some muted primary colors if you want a more happy look. You draw so well!

I am better at drawings with marker, and with pencil my drawings look super messy! ;)

Anyways, great job!

Thanks! Surprisingly, it took forever to get the hair and wings right. Yea, I don't think I'm gonna color except maybe with gray and black-although those are more the absence of colors... Oh well. I'm terrible with markers. If I find a pic that isn't terrible, I might post a pic with markers I drew. We'll see.

Cool, Ember! The first one is my favorite! I love the way you drew the wings and hair!

No prob! :D If this is in regard to the pictures, they look fine! If it was for art in general, then I suggest you use real people or expert drawings as a reference for poses or break characters down into shapes.
