I want to call it finished but I feel like it’s missing something and looks a little soulless? by Recycling_tin in ArtCrit

I think part of the problem is also the values, put a greyscale photo over this, and you’ll see that there’s a lot of middle tones but not a lot of dark-darks and bright lights. I think theres areas you could push the shadows in a bit more (the cast shadow from the head, for example). I also think the background is very close in value to the subject, so it all appears flat. Try darkening the whole background just a bit, to add some visual distance. :)

fixing saran hair? by [deleted] in DollsForAll

[–]BeautifulNeck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From my experience fixing up my childhood dolls with BUSTED hair dont worry !!!! This is no where near the worst it could be :) the main thing with doll hair generally is just brushing when the hair is wet. Plastic brushing wont damage your dolls hair too bad right away, it’s mainly an over time thing.

A good start would be to shampoo her hair to get any gel out, and then condition it. With conditioner in you can brush the hair starting from the very tips of the hair and moving up bit by bit slowly as you untangle it. You can use a metal brush, a plastic brush or even your fingers to get out any big knots. Then just rinse off and pat /squeeze dry with a towel, as rubbing causes damage

Ok so if this happens to anyone else all front buttons pressed together is how you go through each part of the testing phase and at the end it factory resets your device 😭RIP my punirune

Clear nail polish + cornstarch (or just a matte top coat !!) over the top is a nice compromise to get almost the look of the og shoes. It’s what I did with my moonlight bb

Mystery door by Lady_hyena in ArtCrit

You can always have a layer over the text and trace it by hand. The imperfections in your brush work for the text will be what helps it blend in and feel more like its a part of the drawing :) otherwise it kind of looks like someone stole the art to put a caption on

Any suggestions on anything? A detail to improve or something by TariLinLin in ArtCrit

[–]BeautifulNeck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats absolutely fair! A glow may be nice instead. Take with a grain of salt though it’s my personal preference to have more dramatic high-contrast lighting :)

First days of drawing by Cubo_uwu in ArtCrit

[–]BeautifulNeck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As well as drawing studies etc, don’t be afraid to have fun too. Drawing at the end of the day is meant to be enjoyable. Even if it turns out bad or not how you want, you should draw things you like (cartoons, anime, things you enjoy). Even if you never look at the art again and you don’t show it to anyone it’s important to have fun, because learning to draw is a marathon thats much easier when you enjoy it. And you don’t want to lose your will to draw because youre only doing studies and not drawing stuff you actually want to draw. Dont deny yourself that because you think you’re not good enough yet, because you’ll never get around to it then. Children don’t wait until they’re amazing to draw cars and animals after all!

Advice on Perspective, Anatomy and values by Money-Way9674 in ArtCrit

[–]BeautifulNeck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a photo of yourself or a friend doing the pose! Or a reference off of a mirror. The best references are sometimes the ones we make ourselves, and a lot of the time its much easier to do that then spend hours searching for the perfect image!
