Forgot to share yesterday cuz I was tired
Hey all! I’m working on a personal comic project and this was one of the pages I made for it. It’s my first time finishing a piece this big and I’d love to get critique on some of the composition stuff or maybe a way to make the ambience better! This took me 16 hours. Done on procreate
Ignore the one down there.
Digital urban sketch I did of Chinatown using infinite painter, my Samsung tab s9 fe plus, and brushes: pencil and brush markers.
In my whole life, I've never drawn below the neck. So I want to learn it. But where to start? I watched few videos about it but not really understand. How can I learn anatomy, any tips/video suggestions?
I messed up a lot of things on this sketch so decided just to finish it, take notes and move on, the back sun and shading was a last minute random thing, but I really like this idea so I might remake it when I’m more skilled, and I know it’s not really good or anything but for some reason its has just made me really happy and proud of myself in a long time, so glad I decided to take up drawing :))
I think I'm struggling with background the most, idk what to put/how to draw. And that I'm meh at drawing in general
I messed up the perspective on the left side and I’ve tried so many variations of the head and it still looks weird 😭
