Post any pictures or drawings you make. If you paint, do pixel art, or just draw normally then share your work and see what other anons have to say about it.
Today I drew this. It doesn't really mean anything but I think it looks pretty cool. I like using sacred geometry like the Golden Ratio as a basis for my work. It gives it a certain vibe that I like.

Edit
It gives me a noir feeling. The patterns are really cool too.

Thanks. I don't draw very often but I suddenly found myself making this when I was color editing a picture of the Golden Ratio. I decided to implement it into a cool drawing of a dude. The original idea was going to be a ghost or something but I decided to make it The Hat Man because he's cooler
>>533
The cube in a sealed jar is a nice touch.

A perfect drawing for a perfect day!
I'm always looking forward to new Niniba drawings.

For the one anon that wanted to see my work. These are some of my most recent standalone pieces
>>1447
That's really cool!
>>1447
Thanks anon. It's taken me a long time to really develop my style but I'm super happy with it nowadays.
Maybe I'll post that comic I'm working on when I finish it
I like the bright colors and interesting shapes used in the background.

What is your comic about?

It's going to be a pretty simple 10 page one shot, so nothing too crazy. I don't want to really elaborate past the fact that this is the protagonist. Same dude in Veronautical Consequences

The Tailor is the one I like the most due to how these parts look. How did you get them to look like that? They remind me of the spray tool on paint. The transition from pink to red then orange/yellow I enjoy a lot as well.
Nice work, man
>>1452
Thanks a lot. I used a filter called Random Pick on a thick black outline I added to the image, which spread the pixels around randomly within a set distance and thickness. Really, The Tailor is mostly a lot of layer and filter tricks put together, but I think it came out looking spectacular. It's very distinct from my other works
>>1452
In GIMP you can use the Dissolve layer mode for similar stuff. There's also some noise filters that can help. Here's some tuts.

"Under the Gaze of the Sun"
No sketch, a sprite of Alucard used as a pose reference

i might be stupid for saying this but i like it when people take pics of drawings instead of scanning them because in some cases it adds extra flavor to the drawing like its an artform in its own right although the most important factor to consider would be lighting and if the text and art are legible.
In some cases its lazy but if you think hard it doesn't have to be.
I like the comic but in my opinion some of the letters are too scrunched together and it makes it hard to read, spacing it out properly would have been good.
>>1758
yeah, turns out hand drawn comic text needs more planning than I thought...
>>1757
This kicks ass, you show that snaky bastard who's boss
>>1758
really? i like the scanned look to drawings but i don't know how to create the effect myself without a physical scanner.
>>1758
Both appeal to me, but they each have their own advantages. The personality from taking pics of drawings is always one of the more interesting parts of the post.

Inkscape seems to become more unstable with each passing update. It really shouldn't be having problems at just this level of complexity.
Well I'll finish them later... maybe I'll try an older version of inkscape, though they weren't all that stable either

Thanks. I'll take it as a design compliment. I can see it.
This is a new work heavily related to the comic I'm working on right now. Progress is slow but it's coming along. I'll make a thread for it when it's done.
>>1951
You can support me by reading it when I post it and giving me good feedback. Sharing it with your friends also helps. Despite that, I have no social medias, and no way for you to donate to me. I won't even be putting my name on it. I have virtually zero online footprints. In the future it will likely be associated with the name but only indirectly.
I would like to be supported but have no use for material rewards. I appreciate the consideration though

an unfinished portrait study of famous rococo artist
Here's my progress on this painting I've done. I've drawn the sun with a hand so much I'd go as far as saying I'm obsessed with the image. It's called Sun Cheeto because in its original incarnation it was offering a cheese flavoured corn snack.
I'm not happy with the idea of a cheeto though...
and I'd like some suggestions for what the sun should be holding in order to finish the painting.
>>2052
Make it a leaf. The painting already gives me spiritual /x/-core vibes, maybe with a leaf somebody could get something out of it

Amazing, Was this Digital, Watercolor or a bit of both?
>>2182
Thanks. It was an entirely digital process, though I did sketch the figure and his pose on paper. I'm too poor to afford paints

"The Second Flood"
I ended up using a more modern and vibrant coloring style with this piece which, while still good looking, goes against the established style of this character and that irritates me.
>>2358
did you do the modern colors to experiment?
>>2359
No, it just sort of happened. I was always planning for the fire to be red but one thing led to another and I forgot to keep in mind the other, more desaturated style in >>2177 and >>1928

Inspiring and some good advice.
>>3176
Why do you think it's "good advice"? I'm curious about your reasoning
>>3187
Being at peace with your life situation even if it is a lonely existence is the best course of action when there are no alternatives.
>>3227
the art and music is a good pairing
>>3243
I relate to this deeply after a full day of wagecucking. Is there any deeper meaning to this in your mind Anon.
>>3248
so deep, is it a penile? a figure brooding in the rain? or a mushroom? we will never know.
>>3251
Yes it is the penile! It runs down the nile as well.

No, he's a well meaning, kind, and intelligent man, but he is a man who kills everything he touches, and he is powerless to stop it.

He is a troubled but good man.

All good men are troubled
>>3510
He is going through a rough patch in his life from the looks of it.
>>3745
the shading and colors are really cool!
That looks really fucking cool especially the colors. What was the process that went into creating this?
>>3746
>>3748
Thanks.
My process for drawing pictures like this is pretty unusual, because I draw with a M+KB.
Usually, I don't use a paper sketch as a basis, but for this one I did in fact have a paper reference that I used. From then I'll create a digital reference to use as the basis for the digital version, and from then I'll draw out different "chunks" of the piece based on where the light is hitting the subject. If I were to create an analogue to traditional drawing, it's like I draw the white parts, rather than the black parts.
Then I will separate parts of the image into different segments based on the material, i.e "leather", "hair", "cloth", "coat", etc. This is because I typically do coloring and texturing based on the materials, and I like to keep it organized just in case I need to redo/ touch up different segments of the piece.
The final part I do is the actual linework, where I will typically just outline the piece and fill it in with black. This was the first time I didn't use a textured brush for the linework, to experiment.

I forgot to include this, but while I don't have WIP screenshots of it, I did The Punisher separate from Vash himself entirely, and the geometry of putting it together was something I did when I was bored inbetween segments of filling in parts of the coat/ drawing the gun.
Here is a completely black & white version of the image. I think some parts of the picture are better without colors, like the bands and parts of Vash's arm, because they're easier to see.
Coloring is the LAST part of the process that I do, and I like to use lots of paint-themed brushes to add some nice texture. I tried something different with this piece however and did more cel-like shading and coloring, because I thought it would look nice. I'm glad it came out the way it did, and I think I need to find a way to mix this method of shading with my "normal" ways of doing it because then I would have the best of both worlds
