>>5I think it's nice! I like the pose in the 3rd picture the most, and the colors in the 4th picture I think look good together. (also what program do you use? it looks like you scanned traditional drawings and colored them in ps/whatever)
I suggest saving your art in .png instead, that's what most people use for digital drawings. And also try to work on your linework, it lacks confidence and looks kinda flat.

No.10
>>5Your art is gorgeous! Though there is one thing i would recommend, your lines look at bit shaky and i have learned (well im still learning) that quick strokes look quite a bit smoother. (but besides that your art is very nice! keep up the good work!!)

>>11Ohh nice! It looks really good! and you have a game!? Is it out yet? Or are you working on it!? Also she's very cute, and she has the same type of hair clips as my Yume Nikki OC Alexander!
No.13
>>12Thank you!! And hair clip buddies. It's a work in progress, I've been working on it since around November, hoping to have a demo out by the summer. It's a non-traditional Yume Nikki fan game called Spectrum

>>5Yo, pretty much if your art looks like what it is supposed to then it is good in my opinion. If it looks like what it's supposed to then you can make a game or a logo or a design or whatever the heck kind of practical purpose you want. A lot of "art not being good enough" comes down to either snobbishness or money.

>>16(you should totally tell me how you color inside the lines when doing digital work though)
No.18
>>17Thank you, and yeah, its ready for the logo/title now with a few minor alterations! Sure, I plan to make some tutorial videos for digital art using GIMP (I do it on facebook but that's my private account) but let me see if I have some images I can show you for now of the work-in-progress
No.19
>>17So first I do the line art. I keep the line art on the top layer. Then, I make a layer for each different base color (for instance: "Hair"). After erasing the parts that go outside the lines, I use the magic wand tool to select the hair (or whatever portion I colored) and then I can do shading and such without it going outside the lines! In the second image, it shows the skin color before I erase the parts outside of the lines.
I hope that helped a little!

>>41I've been so busy with college and conventions that it's been hard to find time to work on it, but I've redesigned the characters, came up with new game mechanics to include to make it have some survival elements, the plot details are set in stone and details make sense together, restarted on tilesets (because I've improved drastically since I started), started on pictures for the intro scene, and I've been drawing on the side too (as you can see) so I can practice new methods of shading etc so I can do my absolute best with it! I have a break time from conventions now so I'm working on it again and it feels so good to be able to start on things again, I wish the day had more hours in it though..

You should definitely check out Firealpaca its a free light weight drawing program! (I love gimp to bits but for drawing its always hated me)

New drawing! It's been ages. Have a Dokutsuki!

No.54
>>53So, did you tried firealpaca like
>>52 suggested? Paint tool sai is a good option too. Your art is too cute to just be limited by gimp.
You've been improving a lot. Don't give up.

>>56>>56These are cool! The only thing I notice is that you shy away from hands in a good amount of your drawings. They're really hard to draw, so I started sketching pics from this website a while back and noticed an almost immediate improvement…
http://hippie.nu/~unicorn/tut/xhtml-chunked/ch02s05.htmlStill, really cool though. You're good at shading in color, which I find really hard to do…
No.58
>>57Thank you so much!! Yes I used to be able to do hands but I stopped drawing because of depression and I lost my ability to do a lot of things in drawing so I've been shying away from hands, whoops!
I do feel much more confident with art now though, u didn't feel very confident so up until a few days ago I only drew once every few months. I drew 3 times in 3 days now because I got very excited! Thank you for your kind words and for sharing that page with me!

Try to practice sketching real humans. Your art looks deviantart/10

>>64This, some of them look anorexic / deformed.
You should try making them chubbier and improving the face area around the chin, it looks like a Deviant face.
