LinkFor example, I feel like I need to do better at colors and anatomy, any tips?
Or you can point out some flaws in my drawings?

LinkDoubt maybe you guys could oh, idk, pick a drawing I did and see if there’s anything you would change about it?
(Wow, you guys are so nice 😅 I showed my mom my proudest artworks and she found like a hundred things wrong with it and I’m pretty sure she was going soft on me...😆😭🤣)
YOU ARE SO GOOD AT AART ALREADYQ!. maybe fix the leg proportions? thats all i can think of because of how good your art is
Mhm, kay
So like make them longer or something?
(I suck at legs so I do these weird simple stuff...)
Well, ur art seems really good! I love its cute style and unique design
u could probably improve in anatomy. All i can really suggest just look at a whole lot of refs, and even pay attention to ppl's art and see how they draw certain things and take it into consideration.
It's what i usually do :)
Ok, thanks!!!
(I hate learning realistic but I know I need to, to improve 😅)
It doesn't have to be realistic! :D
Just learning simple anatomy is good. Like u can use cartoonish anatomy or anime anatomy which is the best to use if u don't want to be too realistic
mhm, ok, i'll try that!
(i actually dont watch anime that much so guess im just going to rewatch tpn)
lol, i also suggest just searching it up. It's nice to search up "female refs" or "female anatomy, male anatomy refs" etc
You did nto just say "how can i improve at art" YOU ARE A LITERAL GOD
zoom 🏎
ok so
one thing for u i would work on is hands(they’re not really that off but i mean there’s not much u need to improve greatly yk)
and then like in this anim>>
the proportions of the eyes (the left one << is way too small)
also the anatomy is a little off in this one but in like literally every other one it’s fine
i recommend learning all the proportions of the face and body in a more realistic “style” first, if not realism entirely so you learn the rules, then apply those rules to ur style and yea 👍
also use refs if u don’t alr lol
ye ye
Is one of the problem with the anatomy because the head is a little too big..?
It seemed a little off to me
And yes, I really tried with that other eye, i literally redid it 5 times and I still don’t like it 😅
Is there any tip to doing realistic?
I’ve never done it before so I’m going into this a little bit new 👉👈
BUT YES, THANK YOU SO MUCH 😂
Ok so tips for realistic:
USE REFS
if you have another drawing program where you can import images (like procreat, clip studio paint, photoshop, medibang, etc) then import your ref, and draw over the ref with simple shapes and lines showing the head, chest. hips, and limbs amd joints, then try to recreate those shapes next to it. don’t trace over it tho, try to do the shapes separately by yourself using the shapes u put over the image as a reference.
for realistic heads, study the asaro head, (there’s 3d models online)
two youtubers i recommend are Angel Ganev and Ethan Becker 👍
oh and for the anatomy issues for the anim i attached i was thinking more for the legs, they kinda looked like they were super skinny and smooshed together too much at the knee, but then the foot was kinda wide. so yeah the knee was just super small
the head was a little big but i would’ve just made the body bigger instead of the head smaller. but yea 👍
DANG THIS DRAWING IS SO CUTE.... lemme see if I have any good criticism... the fur is a little uneven at the persons tail so it kind of looks like just a big mass of fur? That’s all I can really say xd keep it up though you’re great
And probably just in general, facial proportions, though it’s not as much of an issue in this one. Three-quarter views are hard so I get it
Yes, three-quarters are my worst enemy 😅
I also for some reasons just can draw someone’s face turning to the right..?
I think it’s because I always draw them turning to the left that I just can’t do it anymore 😭
But thank you!
Like, I can do it perfectly turning to the left and then when I need it to turn to the right, BOOM, MY HAND DIES 😭😭😭
I love ur art soooo much, I literally love how u do da lil legs and the white lines around everything, its so cuteeee I could never-
And I love how u put so much time and effort into ur lil people, and get the lines so precise, and don't use just one color for the outline
(I can't do emojis rn, but if I could I'd put hearts)
Aww thank you!
I find that if you want your lines to be more smooth, zoom in on it. It helps a ton 👍
Doing a simple sketch also helps
AND YES THANK YOU, I LITERALLY WASTE MY MORNING DRAWING ON THIS APP 🤣🤣🤣
something you can improve on is the full tool thing if you look closely theirs a little transparent line their 🌚
I still dont understand what all the tools do
I only use pencil, bucket, uh.. the color picking thingy, and the one that only colors in what you’ve already colored
The highlighter looking thingy I still don’t understand, either does the rollerblade thingy
im saying where you full tool ect the legs or the black things yu could see little dots because of the full tool and you could maybe color select them and color em :)
I know your probably tired of hearing this but your art is truly amazing. I know it might not look like it to you but you're really talented. Now for advice. I'd say, for anatomy, try looking and different perspectives. Like if someone's reaching out the hand will be bigger. also try doing some different poses that you might not normally do. I know it's so easy just to standing up but what if they were sitting or falling.
A little tired, yes, but I always makes me so happy ❤️
And yes, I’ll try that, I don’t do different perspective too often so that’s something I should try 👍
And thank you ❤️💕
IMPROVE? Your art style is amazingggggg! I honestly don't know- your drawings just seem so perfect to me :D
IDrk tbh your art is already godly :0 maybe add more detail??? Idk overall ur art is a m a z I n g
So prolly doesn’t need improvement :)))
Mhm Kay, anywhere specific you want me to add more on...?
But yeah, THANK YOU!!!!
You don't need to improve your art! I ALREADY LOVE IT, AND I'M ALWAYS JEALOUS!! 4i3urhbj54uhb4rft4ihu5bjnt4i9ejrd
Honestly depends on what your end goal is. Anything specific in colors and anatomy? What are you looking for to be improved in your art?
Uhhh... I don’t exactly understand the color theory even after reading it...
Um... maybe lighting? Or like designs, I’m not good at those either...
For the anatomy, HOW ON EARTH DO YOU DRAW LEGS?!?!? 😅😫🤣
I also really want to improve on realistic, is there any good starting point?
your colors are really really good, but the anatomy is kind o f weird qwq
try referencing joints and knees
in more skinny characters the kneecap usually displays a mark or two, in more chubby characters there's just baggy skin lmfao
i dont know- your literally like the most well stylized artist here and im not just saying that because im promagmphobic
