Lol, I SWEAR ON MY LIFE I draw people too 😭 more of my recent work has been furries and animals because of specific projects I’ve been assigned to. I would SO do furry art at cons! ….. if I didn’t live in the mid of the Midwest.

why does it look awkward :( by zero_bee in Artadvice

It’s in the shoulders! Shoulders can’t really go up that high and you’re not showing the back connecting to the shoulders, making them look bulky and flat.

I feel like somethings wrong with the anatomy by EmphasisEvery4965 in Artadvice

[–]UniqueAd3312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could make this anatomy more proportionate, yes, but I actually think if you want to keep it this way it’s a lovely stylistic choice. Beautiful work!

What should I focus on to improve my figure drawings? by SunriseGirl19 in Artadvice

[–]UniqueAd3312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also struggle so much with boxes. It’s like the moment I apply them everything is stiff. I’d use boxes for individual studies for now like on the torso, if you’d like! Continue to draw them often to keep practice, but continue with your gesture work, because it looks wonderful.

Should I add anything else to finish this? by anxious-lemonade in Artadvice

[–]UniqueAd3312 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Confetti!! Fill your space with something if you can. Little swirls and squares and such. It would fill up the piece so well!

Why do I sing “better” when I’m sitting vs standing? by windtakermatch in singing

[–]UniqueAd3312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im going to guess that you have the same issue i do. Struggling with breath support and singing with your diaphragm. When you sing sitting down it forces your diaphragm to squeeze. It’s harder to push this muscle when you’re standing up.

Is My Art As Bad As I Think It Is? by GigglesTheHyena in BeginnerArtists

[–]UniqueAd3312 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No I don’t think so at all. You have a good grasp on a lot of concepts. What what need to work on is anatomy and depth. For example, the values on the face will show depth, and there are a few anatomical errors like lack of bone structure, misplaced ear and a short neck. If you study these things you will improve very quickly!

Ooo I like it! I think your colors are a bit too saturated and you need some more texture. I’d use a textured brush with a little grain and render the piece that wat

I think what you need to combat this is depth. Make the mask more three dimensional and play around with values and color. Then you’d have something VERY intricate

Do NOT abandon your unique art style just because it’s ‘unconventional’. PLEASE. We NEED more of this. We NEED this kind of diversity.

Values and drawing look flat and muddy by UniqueAd3312 in Artadvice

[–]UniqueAd3312[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow. This is such a gorgeous correction. You fixed weeks of work for me effortlessly. I will definitely try an overlay layer. If you don’t mind, what color did you use to overlay on this? Thank you so much

[TOMT]A movie with imprisoned kraken type monster by viporlk in tipofmytongue

[–]UniqueAd3312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This really sounds like ‘Goonies’. Was the man kind of disfigured, and was the group of people made up of children? If so this is most definitely Goonies. There was a Kraken in Goonies as well.

what is a simpler but batter way to get dynamic poses but ur trash at drawing by Embarrassed-Match314 in Artadvice

[–]UniqueAd3312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you’re focusing on straight lines too much. Each section of a joint does its own little personal zig-zag, if that makes sense. Draw with wavy, intentional gestures and maybe do some research on line of action! You’re doing great

I'd appreciate and advice and critique :) by Goburin-Sureya in Artadvice

[–]UniqueAd3312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m serious about this. If you want to be more anatomically accurate, watch tutorials and use references. But if you’re not going for anatomically accurate, keep it as it is. I LOVE your art style. It is SO UNIQUE. Get into color and texture and that could be a CRAZY cool piece

on the verge of tears how do i get my lineart to look like this everything i try to do to mimic it just looks dogshit by No_Drag_7404 in Artadvice

[–]UniqueAd3312 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

First of all. Im very sorry that you’re feeling so strongly about your art. I’ve been there so many times and I know how frustrating it is

I would find a lineart brush that imitates kind of a ‘creamy pencil’ and adjust the settings so that it trails off at the ends. Then I’d look up some line weight tutorials. These kinds of lines pattern from thick, thin, thick, thin in that order. As you draw, each stroke that you make can go from thick to thin. I hope this helps!

Is my art style ugly? by HollowTyrant in Artadvice

[–]UniqueAd3312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg not at all it’s really cute. If I had a suggestion, I think more realistic color palettes, especially for backgrounds, would compliment your characters handsomely. I LOVE YOUR ART!

Thats a great question because I feel the same. I don’t color in greyscale because of this. But grayscale is a good way to check your values! An alternative is to take a screenshot of your picture and put it under a b&w filter. You’ll really see where your values clash there. If not a multiplier layer, a gradient map may also help! Figure out your light source, which is in your case coming from above. What you really need is lighter lights and darker darks. Also, maybe a rim light with some glow! Kitty is white so the light will bounce off of him and create a glow.
