(Pinterest was God’s gift to artists.)

I have never seen more truth in one sentence.

Yeah how do I improve

I find that my art is always way better when I use a photo reference. I can’t remember if I’ve brought up SenshiStock in this thread (and if I haven’t it’s my go to for pose references) but stuff like that is always super helpful and it’s great for anatomy practice.

That's interesting. So Krita is good for painting then? I haven't tried to paint in Medibang yet but I do have a lined cartoony style so I don't need to.
Also, have you ever tried the watercolour brush in Medibang? It has a blending setting.

For example…this drawing has been done using the wet watercolour brush.

Here are the settings I use.

And here is demonstration. It requires a few takes and a bit of eyedropper work to get it perfectly smooth but it depends on how smooth you want it (I didn't use the eyedropper here though).

For anyone wanting to mix colours and thinking about using Medibang too

I just use Procreate. I just got it, so I’m still learning how to use it.

I have tried it, and it doesn't really work for me because I keep my shading on a separate layer from the base color. However, that's a really nice drawing.

Thank you but so do I

Oh

yeah i like medibang ok its pretty good. I don't really use krita tho, I downloaded it on my old comupter before it broke, but i didn't get a chance to use it.

Hands.
Are.
So.
Evil.

Hands and male lips are the bane of my entire existence. I can draw lips on female characters just fine, but whenever I try to draw them on my male characters it comes out looking really weird and feminine.

i relate to all of these things

I get most of my references from pinterest too. It's awesome for that kind of thing.
