orange~ got a reaction from plastic_rainbow in Show Yourself (again)
Just so no one has any misconceptions about me. I look like a washed out junkie with a gollum-like posture. Random eye makeup doesn't help :'D

orange~ got a reaction from plastic_rainbow in happy paintings
@plastic_rainbowyea hey I definitely agree with you. I too like to see the work that went into the picture, just the same as I enjoy seeing brush strokes in more traditional paintings. So ya, we're in the same boat in that sense ^^
But there is some truth to the criticism, because I often leave my stuff in an unfinished state - without realizing it. I've had on few occasions someone suggest that I continue a little bit further with some works and the end results are usually clearly better. So there is truth to me being a bit too sloppy in that regard. Just gotta find the golden middle road somewhere.
I posted my stuff on this Finnish FB-site with lots of amateur and pro graphic artists/painters/etc. and got feedback about working more on composition and anatomy. So those are the things I'm gonna be concentrating in the future. I'm already going to this live model drawing courses to work on the anatomy. yay

orange~ got a reaction from SadMoomin in Isa's drawing (Mostly fanarts)
I like drawings of Sivy, Andy and Kazuki the most. Their faces are the best imo. and what's up with the electric cord head?
Keep up the good work! Sharing your stuff can be nervous at first, but it goes away surprisingly fast.

loool. You don't look like yourself at all! How about drinks in couple of weeks?
Selfie with my cat! My nose is soooo big that it is comfortable to sleep against.

the gory detail on the first drawing is awesome! great color usage too~
branching off from the comment about your painting style, i think your sloppy style is totally fine! (mainly because i like to draw sloppy myself lol)
i also receive the same comments about some of my drawings from my sister (who also draws, we have very different styles) so i get it. they may have a point, but not everyone has the same way of doing things. i personally admire the expressive look a sloppy brush stroke gives. whenever i actually try to clean something up i start to hate the drawing even more, and it loses its spark. so that was when i pretty much decided that i'd do my own way of things, despite what others say. if people prefer a cleaner and polished look, that's them! just do whatever feels right man!
i mean, it's good to receive critique from others of course, there's nothing wrong with that. and they can be quite useful too. but just saying that, ultimately you'll be the one who decides what to do with your drawings! ^^

Thanks for the feedback!
@PsychoΔelica, why happy paintings...? : / Well obviously they're not, but saying they're paintings of suicidal and depressed tendencies makes it sound too gloomy imo. I tried making more happy things with this style, but they didn't end up looking right. I guess the topic title is a little distracting.
But yea, thank you million times for the constructive stuff! I've heard it before as well - that these works look a little sloppy and unfinished. And I agree. The thing is... I often get bored of drawing these before polishing and just decide to throw them to tumblr anyway. I need to learn some patience for sure. I've been continuing some of these afterwards and tried to give them an extra layers of polish, but still some choppiness remains... I'll probably try to find sweetspot from somewhere between what I have now and more detailed lines. Proportions and anatomy is an area I need more practice too for sure.
Here's an example of continued work:
(You can see the earlier version few posts above. Personally I like this new one a whole lot more ^^)

Hi!
I suppose you gotta promote yourself everywhere if you want something good to happen and get to places and finally have enough money to buy some music from your favourite artists like Avelcain or Mejibray.
so anyways I do digital paintings. here are few I try posting more later.
feedback is always welcome! negative/positive whatever! ^^
you can see the same stuff mostly on my tumblr: http://slsds.tumblr.com/

orange~ got a reaction from Eikazuya in The GAS - great anime story - the manga
I don't know about the community at webtoons... It's pretty funny imo. The GAS is stuck there with shitpoor ratings :'D Many people misunderstand my manga Although I kinda enjoy the extreme negative reactions too. But I'm glad there are few people every now and then that seem to like the stuff. It's slowly getting more readers too - which I don't know if it's a good thing or bad thing. It means I can't just ditch the thing.
But thanks for the tip! I'll be checking that tapastic out and most likely putting everything there too! ^^

orange~ reacted to helcchi in helcchi's band drawings
So this is something I’d completely forgotten about - Nokubura’s Masa had my artwork as his lock screen one time in 2012. And for some reason, “rediscovering” it four years later, I’m way more excited about it now than I was back then. But not only that, back then the only place I uploaded it to was deviantart with no mention of any of the bandmembers and how Masa was able to find it is anyone's guess.
I know many of you will not care and have not seen my artwork, but I was most artistically active between 2011 and 2013, having drawn about 60 bands in that timeframe. One of the reasons for my eternal hiatus after that was the amount of art theft that started to kill my motivation. And as I got older and busier, it’s not easy finding the time to do these hobbies as I used to. However the other reason was my own fault, seeing no real improvement in my art style and subsequently sitting on a shitload of unfinished drafts from 2013.
But enough of my life story because I finally decided to pick up that tablet again and so here’s to my first band artwork in almost 4 years - Jiluka
If I have the guts, I'll be posting them onto my social media accounts in the following days, but this forum gets to see it first I hope you enjoy this "advanced screening" (Suggestions are welcome!)
