PA Lineart.

E: first page get by me? so this is how it feels!…….. i don't get it.

Eh, this one came out okay.

Hey, hey! Another art thread. This is something I can get down with.

Here's the link to my deviantART page which I must warn the haters, is full of ponies. Some of the pony artwork I'm proud of include:

However, I do other arts too such as:

North Korea Best Korea.

This is the first time I've actually tried to draw something in forever…

I was pissed off, so I did this to distract myself.

This was a Secret Santa thing I made for TehBrawler.
I was limited to using a touch mouse and MSPaint though.

Whos Thirsty?

I got bored so here's some Soundwave.

New avatar.

My own version of Optimus Prime. It's based on a cross between Fall of Cybertron and G1.

The latest pages of two different comic series I run, Masked Maniac Wildcard and 27 Rutabaga:

Sunil as Grigori Weaver.

I have crabs

And I'm willing to spread 'em.

Practicing digital art.

I made a trickster version of CD (Clubs Deuce)

You had me at Sarah Jessica Parker.

I haven't done one of these in a while.
A very simple expression chart.

Well, since I finally got something finished after a long break, I thought I might show it to you guys as well. (yes, I've been here every day, but just haven't posted anything)

I drew this as a (late) christmas present for my girlfriend, since she wanted a pic of Draven from League of Legends. Too bad this also shows my inexperience with male characters, since many features from my female characters obviously carried over.

I would've preferred this if he would've been more of a badass and crazy looking, but I guess she doesn't mind a bishie Draven. Oh well…

It's not "Draven", its DRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVEN.

Dragon Slayer Ornstein, Tomorrow I draw Executioner Smough. Maybe as a bonus I'll draw them kissing. You'll never know.

Drew this for Cite. Poorly.

(Sketchbook Mobile is incredibly annoying)

I just drew this, it's not even supposed to be serious.

Here's an AoStH Robotnik I free-handed yesterday.

For some odd reason, I thought I’d try to channel Hirohiko Araki’s (current) Jojo style and use it to draw Soos from Gravity Falls. This was the result:

I'm not finished though, as I'll do Karkat next…

Finally finished JJBA Karkat Vantas:

Next is Strong Bad!

And Strong Bad is finito!

Applejack (human) is next!

I just downloaded Qubicle and this is my first project with it, an epic voxel sword.

Here is the pixel version I did for this with GIMP and exported it to Qubicle

A Spider-Man ink i did in Photoshop. I think it turned out crap IMO

This is a nice thread for people of all skill levels to share their art in. I think we should keep it alive.

… And here's a link to an AppleDash picture and comic if you're into these sort of things.

Thank you for that, Jostin.

Now, on topic, I haven't really done traditional art in a really long time (though I've noticed KYM users favor my traditional over digital)

I'm still getting used to a graphics tablet and art programs, I've made stuff like this

It isn't too bad, but it ain't too good either, I know. I actually just recently migrated from using Sketchbook Pro for Tablets (which started crashing a lot lately) in which I made clearer and simpler images such as this thing I made for All Levels at Once

I'm still trying hard to learn digital painting. I mean, I'm just 15, and seeing my 13 year old friend being good at it is quite discouraging. Then again, she had a Wacom since she was 10. Digressing, digital art to me is much simpler than trad – no creases, no scanning, and a ton more functions at my disposal. But if anyone could offer me advice or an opinion, please do so.

@Hurdy

The best advice you could ever receive is to just keep practicing. Draw all the time whenever you get the urge and just keep honing your skills.

When you feel comfortable with your current ability, push yourself harder. Make something more grandeur than everything else you've made before. If you constantly draw things you find difficult to draw, you'll find that they become easier with more knowledge and experience.

You're also already critical of yourself. That's good. You are your best teacher. Teach yourself what you're doing right and find ways to do them better. Of course, going to art school or undergoing an art program in a college helps too, but most of what you learn is what you teach yourself.

If you want a specific way to challenge yourself, draw some scenery; an actual, bona fide background. This is just about as hard and time-consuming as drawing a character and you will learn a lot from doing this.

As for my opinion, I think you're already a pretty good artist. You just have to remember to practice, practice, practice and in due time, you'll be a greater artist.

Thank you for the thoughts.
I do intend to take an art program, and yes, learning things on my own and in advance wouldn't hurt at all.
I'll continue to practice on the more basic things such as anatomy, perspective, and whatnot, but I will keep in mind to do a lot of practice as well on backgrounds and landscapes. I've studied a few background painting techniques before, and I hope that I would be able to incorporate them well enough as for them to not go to waste.
I will continue to practice, on the things I find easy but even more on that which I do not do frequently. Once again, thank you for the advice.

Apologies. I'd really like to post a few works here every now and then because I lack the dedication to keep my own threads alive. Well, at least we could bring this thread back to life.

Here's a couple of characters from The Bedfellows (which apparently I have recently gotten into), which I've attempted to draw only using a single type of brush on a single size and setting. It was pretty complicated but fun nonetheless.

Dark souls elite knight.

Damn i forgot about this thread.

Here's a two-for! JJBA Applejack and Jimmy the Robot!

I wonder what's next…

Since nobody's posting

Neat thread, I didn't even know it existed. So here:



And of course this abomination:

Also:

I know its an old thread but OP is still Glorious

I think I've improved so far.

Great to see all this new stuff. Have not been in this thread for awhile. Im Defiantly going to start getting my art on again!
