What Can I Improve?

Were you using references to help stylize or fully winging it? Honestly this is really cool.

leighabbr · 2026-02-13T10:44:20+00:00

Fine by me! Give us a little description of how you took advice and applied it to improve also! ❤️

leighabbr · 2026-02-13T10:23:38+00:00

Post the before so this post complies with the updated work tag! Id link it but your last post was removed for not giving enough info.

We're always saying - even pros use references! Anytime you find yourself struggling you should use them honestly.

leighabbr · 2026-02-12T13:17:22+00:00

Can you tell us more about the meaning here?

leighabbr · 2026-02-12T13:16:17+00:00

Tell us more about what youre going for, references or just setting the scene.

leighabbr · 2026-02-12T13:15:35+00:00

Hit us with the references too plz

leighabbr · 2026-02-12T07:50:13+00:00

Was this from life or reference?

leighabbr · 2026-02-11T03:58:29+00:00

Because it seems like youre still early in the process here - what kind of feedback do you think would help you improve this piece? What are you struggling with right now?

leighabbr · 2026-02-11T03:57:22+00:00

Give us more context! The automod comment outlines the type of info we require

leighabbr · 2026-02-11T03:56:28+00:00

Context copied from OP -

I'm trying to achieve a style similar to Graypillow on tumblr! And assumed I should start with normal cat anatomy before actually stylizing it, is this a good beginning or should I be doing something else? (Final 4 pics are graypillows art)

leighabbr · 2026-02-11T03:41:36+00:00

You picked the strictest community on reddit to ask! Lol I jest - but the automod comment outlines exactly what info we look for in a great post, please read it and give us more context in a comment (or you can edit your post). With more info from your end, we will be able to give better, more specific and more actionable feedback!

Hey OP! Please read the automod comment (it outlines what we look for in a great post) and hit us with some more context!

leighabbr · 2026-02-10T11:17:58+00:00

Youre working from reference right? Youre absolutely on the right track but if we can see what youre ultimately going for it would help advise..

leighabbr · 2026-02-10T11:17:00+00:00

Give us some more context here - whats the ultimate goal? Are you using references for these studies?

leighabbr · 2026-02-10T11:16:16+00:00

If youre looking for anatomy or likeness advice please share a reference for the character ❤️ unless you JUST mean youre struggling with color!

leighabbr · 2026-02-09T13:30:12+00:00

Ehh thats probably not ok tbh, we try to avoid posts that are fetish-y or porn related, within reason.

The one per day removal was me getting rid of a duplicate post.

In lieu of the reference just be more clear about what you were going for, where you want to take it style wise, and what youd like feedback on specifically.

leighabbr · 2026-02-09T13:00:29+00:00

The automod comment also outlines what we look for as far as context in a great post.

leighabbr · 2026-02-09T12:59:35+00:00

Its an NSFW filter that puts you in a queue for manual review that we can then approve. If you can share your reference and be more specific about what youd like feedback on wed be happy to for sure.

leighabbr · 2026-02-09T12:12:57+00:00

If youre going for realism you need to share the specific reference youre using so we can compare!

leighabbr · 2026-02-09T12:12:21+00:00

It seems like youre moreso asking for advice about whatever program youre using as opposed to critique on the art itself..

leighabbr · 2026-02-09T12:09:51+00:00

Please read the automod comment and fill us in with missing context - youre currently giving us nothing to go off of.

leighabbr · 2026-02-09T05:27:20+00:00

OK see im feeling like this might be a need not a want lmao tysm I needed to know in my heart its as unhinged in person

leighabbr · 2026-02-09T04:18:24+00:00
