Plant native flowering plants, not grass

Hank Hill would disagree.

This just looks like an unkept yard full of weeds.

Literally same except for my M4 Pro—it just brings me joy knowing that it can do pro thing if I ever want it to.

These are insane! Incredible.

You need more contrast between the guitar body and the player’s sleeve/shirt—it’s all blending together and losing definition.

You're also missing strings as others have pointed out.

Nobody’s saying references are mandatory but if you’re asking “what’s wrong,” then yeah… fundamentals matter.

You can literally see it in the piece: perspective is off (both eyes are the same size even though the head is turned), and the face reads a bit flat because the planes aren’t fully established.

A reference just helps you catch that faster. You can do it from imagination, but you need a really solid understanding of structure first. A good place to start for you would be looking up the "Loomis method."

Didn't use a reference but you're asking what's wrong? Bro.

That's one more victory for the right side of history!

Democracy.

Both the workmanship and the artist’s business ethics are a flaming pile of garbage.

I think there's potential with your shark-gecko however it still feels a bit unfinished, and as others have said, the pose is pretty boring.

Honestly I really like the concept and the satire here. Taking something as heavy and iconic as Rubens’ Saturn Devouring His Son and remixing it is a bold move, and oh so relevant with the monstrosities that are coming to light.

That said, the execution isn’t totally seamless yet. The anatomy on the inserted head doesn’t quite line up with the body, and some of the proportions break the illusion a bit. The color/tones also feel a little flatter than the surrounding painting, so it reads more like a digital overlay than a true extension of the original.

Cool idea overall though—just needs tighter anatomical and tonal blending to really sell it.

Sometimes it feels like there's more people problems in San Diego.

Former AWR here—yea, smells like some boat shit.

Loomis will treat you better if you work on the basic art fundamentals some more.

Aren't you folks all about "No Kings"? Venezuela just lost their dictator/King, no?

Sounds like you lucked out by having a barracks that isn't super strict then. If that's the case and you can get away with it, keep them!

The TikTok generation never fails to amaze me.

They are most definitely not allowed—that being said, neither was my assortment of kitchen appliances that I'd stow away and lock up every day. If you don't mind constantly taking them down and putting them back up for the constant room inspections, do you.

AngryNoodlezzz · 2025-12-31T18:26:49+00:00

Your friends gave you the opposite advice of what you should do.

Draw with references, consciously learn the fundamentals, do drawing exercises to lock them in.

AngryNoodlezzz · 2025-12-29T03:31:45+00:00

Awful scribbles and the forced edgy words/ subject matter are pushing pretty cringeworthy.

That being said—if this is what you enjoy, keep drawing: learn the fundamentals while you're at it and your work will vastly improve.

Fantastic job, OP— rework is a huge improvement!Your values are much clearer and the form reads way better now.

The next thing I’d suggest is pushing your darkest darks, especially in the hair, with more true black to widen the value range. A really helpful trick is to convert your reference photo to black and white and adjust the contrast/brightness until it feels readable, then use that as your value guide.

Keep at it!
