>>250596I'm the facetune anon (which was just for fun), but I didn't do any of the others.
You can't stylize until you know the basics. Spechie has absolutely awful technical and stylistic skills. She doesn't understand basic anatomy, line work, lighting, coloring, ect. You can't go "oh but style" for any of that. Her work is shit. That's pretty much a universally agreed with opinion on this site (check the general art thread and her thread on snow). If you wanna disagree, you can, but just know most people are going to think your opinion is shit- because she's shit. If you honestly look at
>>250576 and think the left looks better than the right, then yikes. Idk what to say to that.
She can't draw a normal face, the alien bug-eyed with no chin look isn't an intentional style choice, its a lack of skill. The shitty line quality, unrefined edges, poorly rendered and detailed features, etc aren't a choice. They're cause she's baaaad. I never thought I'd see someone defend Spechie's "style" on here, its like defending Holly's. I'm kinda like just shocked.
But, regardless, this is a thread for fun. Contribute your own redraws, redlines, or revised work. Its fun.
(And kek at calling Spechie a "cartoonist." She's a shitty youtube "artist" who is just famous for her spergy rants and edgelord attitude.)

every "fix" in this thread is objectively and equally "bad", with no potential for improvement. you'd need to construct an entirely new original foundation using hundreds of 3-dimensional geometric shapes from the perspective point(s). you cant just warp or blend over it and say its better on those arbitrarily chosen points because you made it look smooth and flat or put things into "place". you're not "correcting" it. you're doing things you personally like which look just as bad.

What “field” are you even in where you think Spechie/Holly’s work is “objectively” just as good as the edits? And even if everyone’s work is just based on what they personally like, who fucking cares? Why does it bother you that they’re playing around with art and what they like? It’s not that serious.

The issues from the first are still there (strange eyes, awkward chin, etc) but then you added some like the strange lip expression and tiny teeth. I do like how you’ve colored the cheeks.

I've seen the blush placements in manga art long before tumblr style. The only thing I hate of the blush concept is red noses, especially when in most tumblr art it's the only red part of the skin.

>>304817None of the other posts in this thread are mine; I literally dropped the picture here and forgot about it until now.
I think all the criticism here is legitimate, especially the ones
>>305299 outlines. My only disagreement is that I don't like how animu your revised face is. I'm not a manga artist- if you're going to critique me, do it based on normal human anatomy.
I agree that I drew his face a little too feminine and his legs too thick, as several anons observed. The mouth is a bit too wide, and the shading needs more contrast.
Thanks to everybody who gave actual critique, instead of just vaguely calling it "fuggly" (nice spelling, retard).
>>305154This one looks way more like a chick than mine. No human male over ten years old has proportions like this. Also, the lineart is sloppy and feathery as hell. Am I supposed to be impressed by this?
Having a preference for manga styles =/= observing an objective difference in skill. Yes, this one is cuter than mine, but it's less anatomically correct.

Especially when you start throwing a tantrum about your work being ~more anatomically correct because it's "not manga"~ like a pretentious asshole. The source material is trying to imitate the manga bishie style so it's only justified to have the redraw fix that aspect too by making an actually attractive manga-styled hottie male. And still, the original character clearly has an angular face with slim features, your redraw has a gnome face.

>>310259It's not bait. I was being serious.
Unless a piece a art is bad in a really obvious way, how the hell is someone with no art background going to know what to say? Is this not common sense?
Sure, on some level a non-artist can sense a problem with the piece, but with no knowledge of the discipline, they can't articulate the problem. I think this is why a few anons are just saying "this sucks," while other anons are able to talk about things like proportion, gesture, value, etc.
It's all well and good if you think a piece sucks, but it's not helpful. The most relevant information is the stuff that follows, "this sucks
because".

technically not much wrong but you could of used more of a gesture line cause it feels kinda like a unbalanced jenga tower. I just made him lil more straightened but i could've pushed the gesture more by: having him lean backwards OR having him arch back and push his tooch out

I'm also sick of people wahhing about "weebs" when they're being told that Holly is trying to imitate the anime bishie style (and failing horribly) and they probably should utilize that in their redlines/redraws but instead go for their own generic style, completely ignoring the source context because m-m-m-muh realism.

did a pretty true to definition redraw/trace over spechies bowestte piece that was obviously shit out judging by how lazy it is.
even though i did draw this in a pretty animu style i did try to make the general anatomy and style more appealing vs hers which looks very stiff and heavily referenced.
considering i directly traced over her art and managed to give somewhat better fluidity to the piece just means that spechie just really needs to focus on laying out better basic shapes (those spiky bands and shell lmao) and also pay attention to female anatomy more because how she does her females and males is the same to be honest.
its like she learned how to draw basic male body shape and head and just uses that for all her base art and it just gives all the females she draws an unfortunate aesthetic. her art would benefit a lot more if she stopped with the fucking useless painting studies and actually learned basic form and anatomy first because the way shes trying to get better at art will always leave her shit looking stiff and askew when she does any art that isnt heavily referenced and traced

Either way the right one is worse. It's a blurry mess, like someone went crazy with the Smudge tool.
No. 324343
>>324319>feel free to critiqueI'll give some.
So the two most glaring issues of Spechie's piece on the left are her color selection and the hair. Her colors are too bright, it's painful to look at. Some bright colors are fine else all art would just be grey and lifeless, but every color she's selected is bright, and as a result they are not in harmony with each other. The other issue is the hair, which features too high a shine when compared to the rest of the piece. You would need very bright, harsh lighting to achieve such a high shine on the hair, and that lighting would give the face a similarly high-contrast look. Instead, the face has a more subtle contrast between its light and shade, and it makes it look like it has no connection to the hair.
Your piece fixes the color issues somewhat. The colors you've chosen don't hurt my eyes nearly as much, but because they are all similar values it also means that there's no point of color interest. I'd have made the eyes brigher to try and counteract this.
And as someone else pointed out, you really overdid it with the blending. The nose has a good level of definition, but the rest of the face and especially the hair is overblended to hell, making it feel like I'm looking at the image through glasses someone rubbed butter all over. I would allow more brush strokes and harder lines to exist within the piece to give definition, particularly to the darkest and lightest areas.

I know it's profoundly arrogant and shitty to redesign other peoples' characters, which is why I'm posting it here, anonymously. The only reason I'm not posting it to /co/ is because I hate /co/.
So rip into me anons! Literally some of the most valuable critique I've read is some of the stuff I've read here.
Autism on the changes:
A lot of the decisions I made were to make it more obvious what time period he's from. His name seems to imply that he's from the seventies or eighties, and I went with eighties simply because hot pink was more common then, and I tried to keep the palette of the original design as much as possible. I was looking at the guys in bands like Hanoi Rocks, Judas Priest, and Cinderella. So what I came up with was a bright pink, cropped leather vest instead of a suit jacket, and a choker instead of a bowtie. The vest exposes his flank more so his arms have somewhere to grow from. I also wanted to make him look more pointy overall.
So in terms of things I removed, I made him look less like a furry, which I concede might be more boring (?) So now he's got a mohawk instead of random fur sticking off of his head, and the bizarre fur-boobs are gone. The problem with giving him actual hair though is that he looked really weird without ears, so I added pointed ears. Removed all the things I felt were unnecessary or scene-kid-ish (heterochromia, stripes everywhere, freckles.) I wanted to keep the gold tooth but it just… didn't look right no matter what I tried.
I also wanted to make him look more spider-like, but that didn't really work out either. All of the drawings I tried where he had eight eyes or mandibles made the character unrecognizable. Like if what Vivienne was going for was "promiscuous spider", than the design needs a total overhaul, which I didn't want to do.

>>493263I posted about this at length in the art salt thread, but nothing about him makes sense for the forties:
1) Porn was underground and illegal, so there were no porn "stars." 2) PCP (Angel Dust) wasn't even used by hospitals yet, let alone recreationally at that time. 3) No one was wearing hot pants and thigh high boots– not even hookers. 4) His color palette is very neon, which makes more sense for the 80s than the 40s.
Having him be from the eighties makes more sense. Viv would even be able to keep the part about him being in the mob, since not only was it around in the eighties, but it had a hand in porn production.

No. 493429
>>493179My only gripes are:
1) Hate the mohawk. It just doesn't fit with the character and reads more as a biker than a pornstar.
2) He's not a spider. His species is literally a spider demon and this just looks like a boring, normal demon when he's SUPPOSED to stand out with him being a main character and all. He just looks like another background biker chick with some masculine-ish features.
3) The ears? Confusing. Hate them. He's not an elf and it again, doesn't read spider just generic demon or nymph.
4)This also doesn't read as eighties. At all. If you didn't point out that he was from the eighties, I wouldn't have known. It's one thing to research the clothes they wore, but it's another to take the basic most recognizable to the time period features and using them. This is for animation, the audience needs to be able to know everything about the character in their first appearence with an equally as readable silhouette. You knocked the nail right on the head with saying beforehand that it's boring.
A for effort anon, but this looks like another generic background demon rather than a spider demon main character.

this one is super weird in particular because when i started re-drawing from forehead-down i felt like i ended up at a completely different angle from when i was drawing chin-up and had to redo it. tried to keep the eyeline and general face shape consistent, at least. i think the cheek area is what drives the original into ogre-territory like that other anon said.

I don’t want this thread to die, so I thought I’d throw in a month old re draw of Vaggie from hazbin hotel. I felt that her design was really close to being decent, but the stupid scene hair, and ugly colors threw me off. Plus the unsymmetrical design is hell to animate. My drawing still isn’t particularly animation friendly, but imo it’s a step up. I also added in her spear, since Vaggies original spear changes it’s design twice in the 30 minute pilot. Btw sorry it’s kinda unfinished but I’m way too lazy to go back and finish this.

I did make it look a little too different. incorporating more X’s into the design, and changing the hair to fit the original design would be more fitting. I wanted to incorporate some of the colors from earlier designs of vaggie (the dark blue hair and somewhat similar dress, the image attached is what I’m referring to) but I think the blue makes her look too different, and almost blends in with her skin tone. Also I might redraw this since it’s been a minute, and I’ll try my best to mimic the style of hazbin hotel! My style is kinda anime, and I did watch avatar as a kid so I see the avatar comparison lmao. Thanks for the advice anons!!

>>549049I really think you should work on anatomy and general skill development before you do any stylization. If you do different studies on anatomy, shading, colour, practice drawing proportional faces and hands etc. your art will improve much quicker than with just regular doodle practice alone. It will make it easier to draw art in your own style that is executed well. To work on your line art skills, try practicing drawing a line in one go instead of sketching back and forth because it makes it look nicer and is easier to colour.

>>549049I think you’ve lost a lot of fun in your work. If I saw these both side by side my eye would be drawn to the first one. I personally find that piece to be a lot more whimsical and weird, where as the second one appears to be a little more lifeless. Now, I don’t think that you can necessarily choose exactly what your style comes out to be, and I definitely don’t want to discourage you by any means because god knows people on anon forums can say and do anything they want which in turn can leave little brain bugs that nestle in your head for years— but I think
>>549067 had it spot on. Work on those fundamentals, but don’t forget what makes you want to draw, your roots, your core self. Sage for the shitty ramble, I see a lot of potential in you

Anyway, learn anatomy before you try to stylize things. The faces on these characters are terrifying.

>>549046>>549049well I think you should learn the basics first, the artist salt thread (older ones) had this image and I can only recommend these books
The colours in the first one are cool but it just seems without 'purpose'

this webtoon is a study on odd faces, it might because its mostly google sketch up? it ruins the mood when the characters have snap turtle-like faces.

>>557007Umm I used another pic as ref and I took some of the shading from it. The top is darker and the bottom gets darker in a gradient. A bit like a sphere. There's shadows where the hair is turned away from the light. I made the hair turn lighter at the tips in the middle of the face to make it look more transparent/the face looks brighter. My example isn't super well done.

>>564108Here's what I think. The pelvis is angled differently. the original has her pelvis angled as it it's tilted back and you can tell she's putting her weight more on one leg. Your shapes aren't showing the same orientation in space. To show that she's putting more weight on the leg that's drawn on the right, you need there to be more mass above that leg. The different body parts also need to follow curves (motion/action lines) for the pose to look good as another anon said. Hope this helps.

not a redraw, just a super shitty redline done on my phone, but I felt it was necessary to truely visualise what meyoco's hydrocephalus skulls look like. I think the combination of the thick neck and bobblehead with a tiny face is really something.
I kind of want to Photoshop a normal human face to meyoco proportions using this as a base, but I don't know if that's allowed in this thread.

>>576738If you want your work to have a better sense of movement, you should do 30 or 60 second gestures on a large piece of paper, preferably from a live model, but there are online resources you can use for gesture drawing, too.
Your biggest mistake early on is that you didn't draw a line for the spine. The line of the spine is important because it tells you where to place the neck, ribcage, and pelvis relative to each other. As a result the neck doesn't line up with the rest of the body. In general, you need to do more anatomy studies. I would recommend looking at some Burne Hogarth books for that. Like
>>576746 said, this isn't a very good reference photo if you're trying to improve your gestures, because she's wearing baggy clothing that obscures her body and is doing a stiff pose for the camera. You need to use nude models for this sort of practice so you can see their anatomy and musculature.
