Hey Lillian ! I’ll try to help you out, though disclaimer my art is quite a bit more cartoony then yours is.
So the hair on these looks pretty good. I myself am a beginner so I can’t really tell you the right/wrong way to do stuff (maybe artists like @christieaton and @mariposaaristio and @ethyrendal would be of more help) but…[Read more]

@ariella-newheart  Have I reminded you recently of how amazing of an artist you are?

@mariposa  VULCANODON!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAA!!! *faints of fangirl overload* That is TOO cool!!

And all the rest of your dinosaurs, too. You should make an adoption center for them. XD

@the-fledgling-artist  I love the owls!! You are such a great pa…[Read more]

@ariella-newheart, those are some nice pictures! 😉

@the-fledgling-artist, did you paint anymore of those owls. I like owls… especially when they have a mixture of red in their plumage. 🙂

… @christieaton, so, what have you been working on lately? Any more artwork? 🙂 I need to do some more in one of my sketchbooks. I may try to draw a…[Read more]

Drum roll, please! I’d like to proudly present, General Raspberry!

@mariposa, @christieaton, @skreddar, those pictures look really good, better than I could draw. 🙂

I usually don’t paint, but I more prefer drawing. Drawing maps, making creatures, and even making big paper games that I draw all sorts of stuff in is fun too!

And speaking of making paper games, I’m making this dinosaur one right no…[Read more]

@christieaton That background is amazing! 😮😍 I enjoy drawing backgrounds myself, but they can be so time consuming!

@skredder I like your use of shading and perspective in that first one. 🙂

@christieaton Wow! That is excellent background work!

Here’s something of mine.

@the-fledgling-artist

I don’t have much experience with digital art outside of blog design and Adobe programs, but I think you’re off to a good start. What I’d focus on for now is as @christieaton suggested, bringing out the facial features some more. They really seem to blend with the freckles right now. XD

@christieaton Oh, thanks! That’s actually helpful! I can see that they do blend in a little now. 🙂 Would you suggest doing that by having darker values/more contrast in values around the face? Or do you have something else in mind?
I used Krita! 🙂 It’s pretty great considering it’s free (or at least it was when I got it) The only negative thing…[Read more]

@anyonewithanartisticeye

@christieaton Thanks! 🙂
Observational stuff is something I totally need to practice more. Anything non-organic like cars, houses, or chairs are really hard for me.
The picture of the girl is almost a month old so I can see a lot of problems with it now (I’m sure you know how that is) but at the time I remember being super happy with it. 🙂

Here are a few things from my sketchbook(s) 🙂 I might post some pictures of some (of my) characters at some point too.

@christieaton I finally got home and was able to post! 😉

@christieaton It is, I agree. My favorite character thus far is Jay, because he’s just the smartest of the pack. Have you seen season 6? His brilliance really shines through in that season. *nods sagely*

And ah yes, BotW Zelda. My fictional counterpart. xD I’m not typically a fan of videogames, but this one I love. The story is exceptional.

@christieaton In the past the norm was to sketch with pencil or ballpoint pen, but recently I’ve been exploring the vast realm of color. 😀 Colored pencils, markers, and watercolor are all things i’m exploring right now. 🙂

If i’m being honest I feel pretty overwhelmed at times as there are so many things I need to practice. I’ll try to give you…[Read more]

@christieaton I really love your art style!

@ethryndal That ink is so striking! I love black & white drawings, but I can never not add color, (it disguises all of my mistakes ;p).

@christieaton What art program do you use? I love the first one! The lighting/values are nice. I have one seen the first two seasons of that show.  How does fanart help your art skill?
I am interested in digital art and I downloaded krita. It’s free and seems good but I am not good at drawing on a tablet!

In scrolling through to see everyone’s amazing art…

@ethryndal wwOOOOWWWWWWWWW OKAY THAT’S PRETTY AMAZING

@christieaton Oh my word. Ninjago!!! Ahhh!!!

I feel inadequate to be here.

@christieaton

A) I’m here, an artist. Hurrah!

b) YOUR SIGNATURE. Am I mistaken in assuming that you are a Ninjago fan?

@christieaton Oh, okay cool! Do you draw your own characters often?

Do you tend to draw a lot of fanart? What are some ways you go about practicing? Do you sketch in a sketchbook or on loose paper? Have you ever used acrylic or watercolor paint? What is the hardest thing to draw for you? And lastly *exhales* is there anything in particular you…[Read more]
