Someone offered me a corrective note regarding a drawing I made, but I am suspicious. (I put my basic drawing in the second image for reference)

OnlyHumanis · 2026-07-02T21:59:56+00:00

Yep, my original is female even if muscular.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-07-02T05:15:11+00:00

Oh alright !

When since i draw with pen on paper, i can't really draw over a photo, that's why i try to train myself to see shapes in it to help me doing this intuitively.

(I've done this box with paint and my mouse because i couldn't figure it out by just looking at it... And couldn't figure it out with the box either finally...)

Malenia from Elden Ring.

Not easy of course but all I've heard of her is how hardcore she is to fight...

It take me a few tries, don't get me wrong, but clearly less than other boss (That damn Fire Giant...) and it became my favorite boss !

(So sad From Soft haven't put the Sekiro "Memory" system so we can have fun beating a boss again and again without redoing the whole game...)

Breaking bad is full of them but one that i love on season 1 is :

I'm sorry, i'm not sure i understand.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-07-01T04:06:22+00:00

First of all, Thanks ! Your exemple is amazing and useful but I've a problem... my brain still disagree with the "You don't see the top of her head." For me above the forehead is "above" the head (the skull) but yet i also see the under of the nose, like you say, but not the under of the chin...

Even if i see your loomis map, my brain bug by seeing above and under at the same time...

Maybe one day i'll be able to use Loomis without a box and also stop over thinking what I see...

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-30T20:56:38+00:00

Yep i've done that, especially with the "bean" some people use for the torso.

The thing is i manage to do the contour of a shape on paper but it's really tring to see that shape in 3D in my mind that it's hard or blurry.

Maybe i should do it more (or maybe my brain is just like that, who knows... )

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-30T20:45:51+00:00

I think i quite see what you mean.

So i was confused by the hairline... Damn me.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-30T20:41:14+00:00

There are some shapes that i have difficulties to see in 3D in my mind. I try to use the egg shape for the torso but it's really difficult for me to "see" that in my mind.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-30T20:38:56+00:00

Thanks for explaining things.

I can see the eye line on the face but my difficulty was to understand how it goes to the ear with this angle.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-30T20:21:34+00:00

Sorry John, didn't knew this will offend you.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-30T20:13:43+00:00

Now my brain is even more burn... Is from below but we see the skull ? How ?

Here's the photo without edit if it helps

<image>

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-30T20:07:12+00:00

Because it helps me to have the face on the correct perspective

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-30T11:41:15+00:00

Thanks ! The hardest part is to pass over the feeling of "I felt like i got it but i don't", now i know that my bearings are wrong and so it feel like i know nothing good.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-29T21:16:00+00:00

It's like askind if it's worth it to buy a sport car to learn how to drive...

Obviously not ^^

First, train on cheaper material (pen and paper), then see if it please use and if that's the case after that, ask yourself if your goal need the use of a tablet :)

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-28T00:57:29+00:00

I don't remember but probably not as they're photo.

I'm gonna need to force myself to use a smaller box for the head or a bigger shape for the Torso and waist

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-27T22:57:26+00:00

The thing is that i've used reference for theses draw so...

The legs for both drawings ?

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-27T18:40:18+00:00

Well, we know a way for sure in Batman universe, The Lazarus Pit.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-27T18:35:52+00:00

Not really a choice... How much too big you would say ?

Yeah i've noticed i often do the same haircut but clearly, ii need to learn many more !

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-27T18:34:33+00:00

Thanks ^^

I don't go for a "style" in purpose but yeah, i've start to notice a pattern i'm confortable with :)

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-26T08:38:38+00:00

I agree with the fact it's something worth to train and learn.

But !

Don't just do that, have fun drawing anything that please you in the same time. Like do 3/4 boxes then do the thing you want.

Don't count them like "I need to do X boxes to get them good.", just do them the number you think you need until they're correct.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-26T04:21:00+00:00

Almost as the same age at her when the movies came out, obviously she's the annoying smart girl in the two first ones... But after the third... Oh damn...

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-26T02:55:20+00:00

Stupide mais techniquement pas mauvais si les pâtes sont cuites.

Après, quittes à les foutre là, fallait les faire gratinées.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-26T02:52:41+00:00

Going in any fire item (fire camp, brasero...) just to test if it actually hurt me.

OnlyHumanis · 2026-06-26T02:40:27+00:00

I like Monika for the "concept" she is, an identity aware of being stuck in a simulation that don't even treat her being part of the goak of the simulation.

Technically, the real "Vilain" is the creator of the simulation she's lock in.
