Really proud of where I am right now just want to get that out of the way first. When I look at this piece (from reference) it seems to miss a some sort of magic element that ties it all together.

I think my hair rendering probably needs work, I think my shading is lacking some sort of particular interest, and it feels like there is some sort of finishing work that is missing to give it some sort of pizazz or something.

Any criticisms and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

It’s getting easier and I’m actually starting to like drawing them. Although I’m “just sharing”, advice is welcomed.

From this daily draw series I've been doing called counter ninja. Finding some fun ways to practice my foundations. I like doing these big cut shots and figuring out how to bust them out.

Like real anatomy, not just box figures.

I tried to do something nice but can't get it

Keeping my promise of holding myself accountable and posting every week.

Not gonna lie, I was a little busy with other stuff so my drawing time was cut short this week, but I still managed to do at least 15-30 minutes every day.

I know I got a bad habit with the vanishing points in boxes where I do them backwards sometimes so I am working on it. But hey, next week I am going to be drawing 250 boxes, so I'm sure I'll get better at it lol.

Anyways, like always tips and critiques are always welcome. I'll see yall next week!

Hey all,
So lately i've been trying to explore some hobbies and i've always been into drawings, specially regarding anatomy. I've bought myself some simple supplies (sketchbook and pens) and i've been looking up advice, watching tutorials, I even found books related to comics / superhero to check out how bodies can be drawn.

But here's my problem, everywhere i look i see either "just draw" or "practive drawing squares in every possible angle for hours everyday".
I don't find any enjoyment into drawing shapes or lines over and over. I understand i won't just draw the kind of art I want right at the start obviously but if I can't have fun learning it then what am i supposed to do ?

I can't "just draw" either, i don't know what i'm doing. I really want to learn but I still want to have fun doing so and i'm tired of drawing cubes, triangles, spheres in every viewpoints possible..

Does anyone here have actual advice that wouldn't make the hobby of drawing feel like a job ?

This is my main of, Daniel, the wolf.

This is my second attempt at two point perspective and I would really appreciate any criticism. Pls be harsh.

I'm a complete noob in coloring, so forgive me if this is too obvious.

My shading leaves these thin dark lines, even though I'm paying attention to the pressure I apply and keeping it as much constant as I can.

Did you go through the same in your journey? How did you fix this?

I paint with watercolour and have realized my drawing skills are holding me back. I've never liked drawing, but the more I paint..the more i see how the skills are intertwined.

Tried to draw the candle holder on my coffee table while watching a movie. I was so focused on the values that I didn't see until I took these pictures that the proportions are all off. I guess I'll try again, and block in the shapes before honing in on the details.

My artstyle include the long legs and spiky hair lol, I honestly just don't know how the feet or hands should look with this

Proud of the head, and the shading of it's mouth. Not so much about the body. Yet on paper it's the easy part, but seems I can't really add depth. What you guys thinks overall?

Please be kind I think it looks a bit goat like but any tips - lemme know
