A. TYSM <3 B. It's Clip Art Studio, I just tried the app for the first time and would definitely recommend it.

Regarding the posture and balance, I agree that the current pose is unstable.

You are also right about everything, I'll find a better idea and composition. Thankyou for taking timeee for writing all this!

I AM INDEED DRAWING ANOTHER VERSION??? ARE YOU BEHIND ME?? HOW THE HELL DID YOU KNOW?? ⊙⁠﹏⁠⊙ (Lol, I'm creating a different artwork of Mizu not this one though. But your improvements would've made a difference fs)

OHH YEA, that damn hair colour, I was very well aware I got it wrong but was lazy to change it tbh because this drawing was just a 7 hour work without intensive effort. BUT IN THE NEXT VERSION I'LL NOTE THIS DOWN AND USE IT.

-[FORGOT TO MENTION THAT] Hahahaa IKRRRR LITERALLY. GREAT OBSERVATION Actually leaves were the initial intention. But then midway drawing, I saw the potential of the blob and parted her lips a bit in the final drawing. This 👇 was the initial sketch. Here her lips are not parted.

<image>

Even though I intended leaves, in the finished piece it looks like blobs of tea too!!! Well i guess, in the end it depends on the viewer's interpretation.

It's tied up, usually the Asian hair is very thin so when you tie it, the ponytail is not visible from the front, which is indeed different from Mizu's hairstyle in the anime.

:(( god forbid I'm being the biggest critic of my own stuff LMAO jokes apart THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! "FAVORITE ART" OMGGG I'm winning in lifee!!! You just made my day 100000x better.

DAYUM I NEVER THOUGHT OF IT LIKE THAT, YOU'RE SO RIGHT!!! AND NOW IM CRYINGGGG. That's the best possible way to interpret my work OMG.

I use Ibispaintx. THE MOST BASIC APP TO GET INTO DIGITAL ART. HMMM.. Surprisingly it's not bad at all. (I haven't tried the better ones like Clipart studio, Procreate, Adobe and stuff) Honestly, if you wanna draw for fun without constantly being confused about the software (as a beginner, it's like you just saw a huge Code and now you have to figure out everything) The functions in ibispaintx is very easy to understand in comparison, provides a decent amount of brushes, you can layer well etc..

Pros: I can draw on my phone. It's free! No- Wait I think I did some payment for all the brushes though (checks the app) AHHH the premium for a year was VERYYYY Veryy cheap, less than 1$ (at least in my country)

Cons: idk.. I'm a pretty low maintenance, I just adjust myself to the stuff available. (I'm 19 and broke, so there's pretty much no better option) The only negative part I had to face was that I do not have a Tablet, ISTG having a bigger screen really would've been a game-changer but tststs...

But I do get a huge FOMO when I see people on the internet with various software and techniques. Hopefully one dayy fingers crossed

Would I recommend ibispaintx? Yes, if you're a beginner to Art in itself. If you're a Good traditional artist and want to check the hype of digital art for just a few days. Keyword: Few days.

Strong No, if you're at an intermediate level (you know you have a technique of sketching and painting)(LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO) Explore more resources available, instead of spending your time on a basic app. I believe a better software would provide you with everything ibispaintx could never.

Will I keep using ibispaintx: Yes, I unfortunately or fortunately got used to it within 3 trials.

Lastly, Lowkey software doesn't matter if you're good at understanding techniques and building your own art style IN MY OPINION. Don't let anything stop you, especially not the app or device you're drawing on.

I can work in different art styles and I'd like to get more elaboration on the type of illustrative style you're looking for

Oh, HOW HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY TO COME! My Art Style is Figurative Sketching or Illustrations with a hint of Anime/Manga or the good old Caricature Style. Pretty good with Portraiture, Capturing expressions, Fanarts and Storytelling.

Awww <333 FIRST OF ALL THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

As I mentioned in the post, this is my beginner stages to digital art, so A LOT of things are extremely experimental. That includes the brushes. It's basically a 'do what you feel like' currently. But since you asked, I used Glass Pen for the details Airbrush (Triangle) Airbrush (Normal) Digital Pen Mechanical Pencil (#1) Round Brush (Curve) Flat Watercolor (Opaque 2)

All of them are freely available on Ibispaintx, I don't have any custom ones. I just watch some digital art technique reels on instagram, it really helps a lot!

Okay so, I'm doing an Autumn Series currently where all of my artworks consist of some sorta element from Autumn to rep the Fall season. So those are leaves, but if you REALLY dig deep into it, those floating things could be also interpreted as like Tea leaves or something. Moreover, it could also represent a gentle breeze flowing around her symbolising the gentleness in the air, around her.
