Welcome
I don't know about you guys, but when I finish drawing something I immediately want to show it off to someone that will give me a pat on the back for making it, but also point out things I should improve. None of my close friends are artists, so I'm looking for that system here.
Who's ready for some symbiosis?
Set goals for yourself and we'll be here to cheer you on as you finish them, or @ you when you don't do it. Traditional art, digital art, animation, photographs, sculptures, and layouts/banners are accepted. If you don't see your craft here, ask about it below! I'll probably add it.

Oo I really like the single lined/colored drawing per week idea! Also I feel the traditional thing. I spent so much money on notebooks and supplies and I just haven't really touched them. Added!

Added! Also. I'm struggling with a sketch atm. Something is off about the face but I can't figure out what it is. Any suggestions??

Try flipping the canvas and seeing if anything looks off.

Unfortunately I’m not well versed enough on humans to offer much help. I think it looks pretty good, though! I think doing what Spark suggested and flipping the canvas would help a lot. Also, I’m trying to work on this painting of my Brightheart design. It’s going... poorly. Does anyone here digitally paint? [/img] I’m definitely going to change the scarring colour and make it a lighter pink, try and cement stronger values, and try and figure out my light source lol. I tried looking up references for intense scarring and got gore! Ugh.

Spark- Ooo thank you, that helped.
Dawn- Adding you!
Vader- Ty! And it looks really good atm! I think the lighter pink will help a lot. I'd suggest maybe looking up reference photos of The Hound. He's a human character, but I usually look at the way they do his makeup when I draw heavily scarred warriors

thread fell off the first page, very nice anyone been working on anything recently? i started a painting yesterday and im about halfway done, maybe. why does this stuff take so long. I’ve got some things on the go, and have finished some things, but haven’t been as proud of what I’ve done as of late. I’m curious as to what you’re painting! Care to share? And yes, rendering is hell.

I've also been painting, but nothing worth sharing atm ): Drew up some placeholder icons for a video game yesterday tho! They're shaded so I guess that sorta counts for my weekly?

@aromatisse - here's how it's looking right now, its splatoon related so its not original stuff this time. i should probably make my next finished piece oc related. hopefully i can finish up this pass today and start working on fixing things and adding details. rendering is a necessary evil, but damn, i wish it was a little less painful [edit: started second pass, not happy with a few things but ill fix those tomorrow] Nochi - hey, you drew something so it totally counts. you got me curious about this video game tho 👀

ssquiffy - It looks really good so far! *u* The clothes are probably my favorite part of it, they stand out in a good way. And it's a Warriors game o: Eventually I'm gonna have to make 4-8 face icons for every character but I'm being lazy and only doing the ones I like rn lmaooo

Ooh I forgot about this! I've been working on a few different things, but I haven't really finished much. A new reference for my OC, Arlo. I've had her since June 2014 and she's changed a lot over the years, but unfortunately I only finished three reference sheets for her (If last year's counts as finished). Here's a collage pic comparing her references from 2014, 2018 and 2019. A sketch of another character that I'm now using as a color pallet for her And the latest wip of that picture A bunch of sketches of newer OCs I've been thinking about working on Anddd this one's from a little while back but I still like... I keep looking at it and opening the file but I never seem to get anything much done with it.

Vixenclaw - Digital Art Criticism accepted?- Yes! Goal- Learn how to draw anatomy and body proportions well and possibly learn how to animate. Also learn how to get a good style going, since a lot of the time my faces look pretty off. I also want to work on a fully colored body at least once every month.
