Well, here is how: Make more solid and smooth lines first, then add solid colors and after that add the shadows on top of the solid colors. I mean, make the clothing like RED ONLY, BLUE ONLY and after that on top of it add the darker colors. :)

It looks like your lineart is a scanned drawing which is over-contrasted. Just like what WindFleuret says, first and foremost fix your lines. Do this by re-tracing your picture in SAI, PS, or whatever program you're using. Coloring will be much easier after that.


Well, that aside, here's my latest drawing. My favorite girl from No Game No Life~ :D

This one's suppose to be for a game project of mine but, well, cancelled, which is not really surprising as I get distracted from every project I start (and results in it being put in the abandon land).

Learning to draw digitally and this is where I'm currently~

What do you mean with learning? Unless you've done traditional drawings for some years, there's no way you're just learning if you manage to do stuff like this.

Even if they've been drawing traditionally for years upon years, learning to draw digitally will take a good while. Either he/she's extremely fucking lucky with learning, or they're lying just to brag about being good.

If you don't believe me then go and try drawing digitally. It is a lot easier than traditional drawing. The trick is to analyse work that inspires you and break it down trying to replicate the effect. It may look complicated but once you break it down its not that difficult to replicate it. Watching many speedpaint videos also helps significantly.
It varies from person to person on if drawing digitally is easier compared to traditional. It isn't the same for every god damn artist. When you said it's a lot easier compared to drawing traditionally, it's from only your perspective.

Replicating an artist's artstyle isn't going to help you in the future. You'll eventually develop your own artstyle though it can possibably include hints of your favorite artist's artstyle that influenced it. Maybe it's just something small like the corners of the mouth or the angle of the eyes, anything. Trying to exactly copy an artstyle is a waste of time. You're better off developing your own unique one.

Ah, you've just proven my point, because

was what you said. That is rather hypocritical.

Also, regarding the issue of replicating an artist's art style, you're right in the sense that it is better to develop your own art style. However, it is not a waste of time to replicate good artworks. Perhaps you have misinterpreted the word "replicate", or I was not clear enough, but analyzing good pieces is definitely not useless. It helps you identify and learn the factors that the artwork has that make you like it, and thus being able to apply it into your own works. This applies not just to art.

Replicating an artist's artstyle isn't going to help you in the future.
Even though this statement is nowhere near correct, many of us here, including me, are hobbyist, therefore does not apply regardless.
I said it varies per person on "IF" drawing digitally would be easier. I never flat out said that it'll be harder nor easier. Just that it varies for everyone.

Why not just draw everything in your own artstyle and incorporate the things you like from your favorite artist's artstyle? It's just baffles me why anyone would try to draw anything in the exact same artstyle compared to drawing in their own.

Would you rather be praised for your art that isn't even in your own artstyle, or art that you used your own style on?

You reply as if you haven't even read my post.

I do not disagree with your statement. The difficulty of drawing digitally compared to traditionally may only seem easier from my perspective. That I do not lie. I guess you didn't understand what it meant when I called you a hypocrite?

I give up. Please re-read my original reply.
I'd rather fap to birds shitting on cars than to re read it.

You could've always just let the comments slide by and went on with life, or do you not like being criticized?

Edit: We both have our own god damn opinions alright? Just let this end

I can't draw shit digitally. I can't draw shit traditionally either, but at least it's slightly easier, and with "better" results.

I find it interesting when someone says not to copy such & such since I myself get immense enjoyment out of replicating, reproducing, copying (what ever you want to call it) another artists work over producing my own. Fact of the matter I copy more shit than produce original content and I love it and what's sad about it is that I sink more time into them than my own work :D

Just to elaborate yes you could say what I do are direct copies but they aren't without reason usually they meet a certain criteria like lack original stocks, left un-colored, done in pencil, Shit linework, shit resolution... There's just something I'm not happy with.

Always cartoonish. (How can I make it so that it isn't cartoonish?)

This is my attempt to make a chibi.
(Reminds me of Hibiya-kun).
