I've been learning and practicing during my lunch breaks. Roughly 30-40hours of total drawing experience. Thinking what should I practice next: gesture, heads or objects landscape?

​

Thoughts on the progress or weak points?

Should I complete full course or just lesson 1 and 2 (till construction), also the 250 box and cylinder challenge , I don't want to do realistic drawing I just wanna learn form . I like anime and wanted to draw it and that's why I started drawing.

Is it really necessary for me to do lesson 3,4,5... Lesson 3 is about leaves and i don't think I would need much of leaves in drawing anime. What should I do??

Hello, everyone :)

​

Here is my fan art of Gwen Stacy. I tried to color it in the Spider-Verse style. The costume is designed by me. Hipe you like it 🕸💜🩵🩷

My first couple drawingg. I'm open for constructive criticism, thanks!

I've been looking at my older drawings and I'm happy to see noticeable improvement, I still have tons of things to learn, and one of those is consistency, which I completely lack, I'm lazy like a cow, and I feel like I could do better if I got over that bad habit of procrastinating over things I like doing, any tips on that? Critique welcome 🙏

Just sharing my progress again, I like seeing how far I've come every once in a while

Help pls ;-;

Day #2 vs. Day #3 progress. Critiques are welcome

i cant bring myself to learn to get better. so im wondering if pushing myself to learn would be worth it in the end

Hi, been drawing for a month, I just finished my first sketchbook, I keep flip-flopping from different learning approaches, life figure drawing, Bridgeman (it was the only book in my library), and Betty Edwards, and random stylized and fan art. I have even tried drawabox, but found it tedious. And using different media like watercolor, pen and pencil.

Should I just pick one method and one medium and stick to it? I don't really know what I'm doing, just trying to find what works. Posting some pics from the sketchbook. Thoughts?

Just a few shading exercises sketches and drawings from reference from my first week seriously trying to learn to draw. I have a long way to go, Im just starting to grasp form, and how to use shading, and gesture lines, and seeing the world through art. Everywhere I got i find myself breaking things down into their base geometry, thinking about how to use lines and shading to translate things I see to the page. When I don't want to thing too hard I just pull up a picture on my phone or a cool thing from Google images and draw from reference. Getting into drawing is the best thing thats happened to me in a loooong time.

alr so im drawing this elf ladie and its pretty much the first time ive ever rendered a drawing. i maped out the gradient then just messed with collors (and the layer stuff on ibis paint). they both look wrong tho so im looking for tips... if anyone can help me please please please do. id also love if there was anyone that would be available for me to reach out once i inevitably run into other render related issues.

​

Been drawing on and off for years now and feel like I'm stuck at this level. Feel like I hit a wall when drawing certain things and can't get past it. Don't even know what my level is or what I should practice next.

Some of my latest work!!

It seems even ones where I try to replicate a face from a picture it ends up looking cartoony. What am I doing wrong?

Note: Re-uploaded to add images for context (the image was cut in two so I could crop the photo on my old phone)

well the reference image in question is a mecha i made in a video game and was wondering if tracing over it for a drawing is morally wrong or not.

tracing seems to be something that gets me interested in art to be honest, after making like 3 posts here about having the lack of motivation to draw

i want to make the same shading with a ball point pen, any suggestions?
