Sorry but I won't finish this series in the near future, but do expect the full story in my book

all the girls you draw seem to have very tiny hips.

they don't look too feminine, they look sorta square-y and MANLY. like they're 20% MAN.

panel from the latest RA comic im making which is going up TODAY and im not even done oh god :((

Looks neat!

Thin wires around the bottom/sides of the deer could use some rethinking - at the moment they don't feel sinister/horrific or very well refined.

Texture/clarity of the antler-region feels like it's been plastered with JPEG artifacts several times.

Coloring on the big, surrounding pillars makes them really flat. The rear-most pillars fade unconvincingly

Why is it the opinion of most people here that we should be drawing the idealised human figure

[Detlef]

if only I had time to fix stuff like that

TI-84 to be exact.

girls have hips.

Edited:

I can see that ADT needs to shape up his anatomy, even tho drawing girls with narrow hips is of course ok, he needs to learn proper anatomy to understand how it's really gonna look.

[Maloof?]

Point, but drawing non-idealised figures isn't something to be frowned upon

Edited:

Grammatically speaking there should be a comma between the 'albeit' and the sentence it refers to

Edited:

otherwise it's too detached

[Detlef]

anatomically incorrect is not the same as a non idealised figure

Grammatically speaking, there should be a comma be between 'speaking' and 'there.'

Grammatically speaking, the full stop should sit outside of the inverted commas at the end of your sentence.


Should we talk about something else

[Squeaken]

Idk, I haven't studied anatomy anywhere near as long as you guys but I'm not seeing anything incorrect with the way ADT draws hips.

[Detlef]

its his style I guess.

[Maloof?]

No, I think maybe he just prefers a certain body shape?

Edited:

Do you not prefer to draw boyish men?

[Maya2008]

Why not let ADT answer it himself?

[Detlef]

I am saying the anatomy looks off, not that he shouldnt draw certain body types.

are you seriously gonna bring up this again.

Like everyone in the cc isnt drawing beautiful ladies all the time, but of course THAT'S ok, you guys fancy that huh.

[Ehanced_AI]

the red one looks fine the purple one doesn't.

[Xephio]

and heres something ive sacrificed my eyes for the past nights

I'm not saying it's not ok for you to draw what you draw; I like it.

I'm saying he's allowed to prefer certain body types

[Detlef]

its the anatomy part that is incorrect, not the body type.

[Ehanced_AI]

the problem with the purple one is that the thigh looks too thick for the hip and instead of it looking liek a different body shape, it just looks weird

detlef is right this time

[Detlef]

I am talking about the purple figure and some other stuff I have seen from ADT.

[Maloof?]

Maybe if you pointed out where the anatomy was wrong (instead of just saying 'hips are too small', which given the range of body types is invalid) it would be more useful

[Detlef]

I like to send people on their way to figure out stuff themselves.

that's less usefull then just saying what's wrong.

it takes longer for them to figure it out then if you just told them, try to help instead of being cryptic

the dude is really really stumpy and his hands are tiny but i like the effort you put in with the scale. otherwise, composition is pretty unexciting

[theLazyLion]

snip saw it wrong.

I get that

But when a disagreement like the one above happens you need more than cryptic hints to support your side

ADT posted:

The red one is fine, just a slightly big rib cage. But the purple one's anatomy is off with the pose. She's supposedly standing in a contrapposto stance which shifts her wait onto one leg. The leg with the pressure on it(going straight down) should be balancing out the center-line, meaning if you drew a line from the head, straight down, it'll land somewhere on the foot. Try fixing that and you might then see what's wrong with the hips anatomy better.

Good example, reversed of yours:


And brown guys hips are jutting out just a bit too much, soften that torso to waist transition a bit. Also for composition's sake try switching the position of the red girl and purple girl, just to try it out to see what happens, might look better that way.

[Detlef]

the anatomy is wrong and he should study more anatomy in near future.

Edited:

what is there to argue.

[Ehanced_AI]

there's nothing to argue but you could be more helpful inthe future.

[theLazyLion]

Just saying it'll be easier for him to see the anatomical mistakes once he fixes the pose.

ADT you should just nab some references and work off those for practice before trying out a big piece like this.

I can make comments without writing a detailed critique. I just said the first thing I noticed.

[JoeyZ]

You guys are silly

[Detlef]

discussing art in an art thread boy are we silly.

[Shortyish]

honestly i have no idea how arm muscles work or how they work so i just did random shit

Edited:

also i seem to have forgotten to shade the hand
