@AloofFloof The flipppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp. Your so talented and I love that art!

@Mosis_Is_Dumb Thank you!!! ;o;;

Yo does anybody know any good standalone drawing tablets that aren't too expensive? My family wants to know what I want for Christmas

What do you mean by standalone?

if you mean not attatched to a pc, I recommend an ipad or a surface. I have some friends who swear by those, but I always prefer my pc one so idk much about stand alones.

Yeah, I don't think you can use a graphics tablet without a computer. I recommend an iPad. I think you can get the standard version with 32 GB for around $250 on Black Friday. If you want a stylus, there's the Apple pencil which costs like $80-100 but you can also just buy a normal stylus off of Amazon for cheaper.

I really like my Simbans PicassoTab. I'm using it right now, and it's cheaper and still high quality. The pen that comes with it can be a bit iffy, but all in all I quite like it.

There are some tablets that are standalone, but most are pretty expensive
I got my screen tablet for about 200, but it's got an absurd amount of cords and is a pain to use. I recommend doing some more research

I've heard that one's pretty good!

Yeeeee
The pen is very touchy though, and mine has to have the tip be pushed into hard surfaces sometimes to get it to work so take that as I will
But the art program that comes with it is very nice, and unlocking all features is only about six bucks flat

oooo what do you use?

ArtFlow, it came predownloaded

:0 icic

There are some inconsistencies, but that's because these are a few months apart. I've been drawing for many years, but stopped for about 5 years.(drawing felt pointless for a while) I jumped back into art rearing to go, I feel like I'm good but I could get so much better.

I love them all so much :DDD

@Nyappy Whaa!! These look so good! My favorite is the upper right corner; looks like a screencap from a movie it's so clean and subtly expressive. Also the pose with the knives??? AMAZING???! The perspective! And damn , those muscles are on point :O

Omg thank you so much! You're a pretty good artist yourself! You are so good with backgrounds, one of my many hurdles to overcome. I feel honored aaa

@Nyappy Thanks! But I am not all that great with backgrounds, I was just being paid to stick to finishing that one… :"D. If that art was for me, I honestly wouldn't have drawn one in. xD Takes aaages ugh >~<

Here's a wip but I need help how to make the shading on the faces better
I've been trying to work on my shading techniques but I'm still trash at shading faces

Transition colors! Don't just use the technical shade color. For me, I like to use a slightly darker shade than the blush. Then, I add it to the edges of the sausage before blending, it helps with any muddling issues and it a bit more ~natural~ looking
I also like looking at skulls and references to see how the shadows fall, and the colors that they are since it's usually a mix.
Not to forget, adding highlights and then blending them really well can add a pop without it being too obvious

It's looking good so far! I'd look at references for similar art styles you like. Also, don't be afraid of reds. They're everywhere in the face and in lighting! My notes for adding reds are blush and then places where bone/cartilage is close to the skin such as around the eyes (use references and up the saturation to see better). For lighting, look into "subsurface scattering," it's kinda advanced but can make skin shading so pretty! I guess just remember that skin isn't like fabric or hair, it's semi-translucent and has many layers, so shading and lighting works a little different.

i'm late but so much mcyt art 🥺🥺🥺

So this is another Alter that I’m working on. Her hair has taken 6 hours so far and I haven’t yet finished actually doing the hair…

That hair's incredible
I wish I could draw that wellll

That's honestly gorgeous— it looks fantastic! Those six hours were definitely worth the current progress! It looks so real.

@SwimwithGamers @Katastrophe

Thanks for the advice! I'll have a go when I get round to it

@The-Magician lookin good so far! the hair has a realistic texture to it.
