Okay, a couple of female vampire hunters, i can't think of a canon pair who would fit this scene, but if you can, go ahead, have caught a female vampire. Run on sentence, bad Spengler ! One has a big checklist, and the other is spanking the vampire. Dialogue "Well, that didn't work. What's next ?" If you don't get my joke, how do they know what stuff to use against vampires? Did they try a bunch of random shit ?

Lol at one of the worst scribblers on the site offering to take requests(!)
In all seriousness, whether paint or pencils I don't believe you have the experience. Your paint stuff showed no understanding of curved shapes, perspective or proportion. Drawing with a mouse wrecks all sense of drawing but there's usually some sign underneath it that you know what your doing. If you want to start drawing 'again' do what every artist on this site has done, go to staples and buy three spiral-bound plain-paper notebooks and draw. Draw everything. Watch anime and just draw the characters while you watch it. Copy (yes, copy/reference, perfectly acceptable while learning to draw) simple non-spanking pictures off the internet and out of books. Fill two of those books with page after page of drawings, scribbles, little doodles and chibis. That should take you about a month depending on commitment. Then your ready to start drawing for yourself, inking too if needed. Fill the third book in about a month. Maybe then you'll be ready to draw for other people. I could be wrong, but I didn't see from your paint crap any sign that you knew how to draw anything other than boxes and sausages. Don't think about what to draw. Just start drawing anything and everything - especially free-flowing OCs. |
How about nurse Joy from pokemon spanking the girls? Misty etc. or officer Jenny? You wanted suggestions right?

RobM xD Holy crap dude, calm down, that’s a bit on the harsh side, isn’t it?...
…But he’s right. Nevermind taking suggestions or trying to construct proper scenes; if you want to be an ‘artist’, start with trying to understand how to construct proper basic anatomy (hint: other wannabes should take that advice too…). There are literally thousands of guides over the Internet, and as Rob told you, you can just copy stuff—it’s the best way to learn imho— or buy drawing guides, you have plenty of them even devoted to drawing manga/anime-style characters. You need to understand how a body is made, how it works. Once you get that it’ll be a great step forward. I’m talking proportions here, but shapes also, and joints, curves. Also, draw whatever comes to your mind, even abstract lines, learn how to control your pencil. It sounds stupid but really, a body is made of curvy lines, and you need to control those lines, it’s nothing like drawing straight ones. Draw a lot of everything. Fill out notebooks like you were told. If there’s something you don’t manage to draw well (hands, for instance), draw only that, hundreds or thousands of times, until you get it. Practice time is all the time. And don’t bother share that with us, that’s just practice. Maybe in a few months... Try to attain a certain standard before you post; I’m sure you realize what you did until now wasn’t good. If not, I question your artistic sense. It’s really good that you decided to work on your art, and I think anyone can draw with enough work, time and will. But don’t think you can get from where you are to amazing art in little time; it’s a shitton of work. But it’s worth it, too. |
Eh, judging by his art, Pablo Picasso apparently knew fuck-all about "proper anatomy" and is one of the most famous artists to have ever lived. His art, though, has motherfuckers with eyes on the same side of their head and noses coming out of their foreheads and shit, yet people spend millions on an original.
No two artists are going to draw exactly the same (indeed, some do not draw at all... Poser and Daz3D do all my drawing for me, I just move the 3D objects around with a mouse), and unless someone is posting works and requesting feedback and criticism, I really don't think posting critiques of their art, most especially negative critiques, is warranted, requested or even at all helpful. |

I even put it in a " (!) " to show I wasn't being serious. Short of a suggestive wink I don't actually think I could have been more clear that wasn't serious... Quote:
Never trot out the Picasso arguement in defence of lack-of-style. He could and did paint normally, one of his Rose period oil paintings which is a perfect styled renaisance portrait sold for £50m, which is slightly more than most of his surrealist paintings of the same time. And that was not a cubic style image. Like Da Vinci before him, Picasso included angular geometry within some of his surrealist paintings that actually required far, far better understanding of anatomy and fluid forms than most of his contemporaries. And do you really think that Rak, Aprion, iLoveforks and I shouldn't have given a good dose of reality to paladingeorge? Do you think we should have just left him to keep on posting crap down a artistic cul-de-sac? Should we just have written "Good" or "Cute" as many other disposable commentors seem fit to do? I think more good advice and clear, honest feedback is given in one of those posts than in 1000 posts of "Nice" from an RP partner who didn't look at it for more than eight seconds. |
@Rob: I know you're not serious xD Not everyone does, that's all, and sarcasm isn't always pleasant for the target of it ;) I do laugh my ass off every time I read your posts though ^^
As for Picasso, Rob said it perfectly, the guy knew how to paint and draw before starting cubism (which I hate and despise, by the way). Besides, Head Paladin George said he wanted to get better, so he can obviously take some advice. And I'm not trying to make him draw like me, or any other artist, he just needs to have some foundation before he builds his own style, and these foundations take hard work. Crap is not an art style, it is crap. Criticism is always helpful. Now if one choose not to take it... Well, first, one's an idiot, and two he'll never progress, but hey, that's just my opinion ;) |
