Draw Your Cataclysms

Please do one for legs and feet and we’re set. everyone could be an artist from now on.
Heck I’m so inspired by this I’m gonna draw again something pls reply in the next 2-6 hours if you want anything on the drawing.

Legs and feet eh? Hmm. These are less something I feel confident on, but if part of drawing is improving one’s game, I really have no reason to decline the opportunity.

I’m happy to have motivated someone to draw without outright demanding they do so. I am also not coming up with any request-worthy ideas at the moment. Go nuts!

Edit: Wow I do not have nearly as consistent a method for drawing feet yet. This may take a bit longer than the hand one did.

BLB’s dudes are kinda fun to see.

Ahh. Pokerface survivors.

My wrist hurts and my hand is cramping, all the written text reminded me of why I hate dysgraphia. Took longer than the diagrams did by far. Would have drawn a leg folded, at rest, or legs crossed otherwise.

TIME FOR TOTALLY RANDOM STUFF
Beware, bad quality drawings and randmness ahead- with very bad caligraphy.

WOAH DID NOT KNOW THAT

And wooooowwww. That looks really good!
I love the details.

Just a little commentary, it kinda looks a bit estatic? Like, not much movement.
Apart from that, awesome drawing! Keep drawing more for my eyessss.

Indeed it seems pretty static, the dog looks like it’s literally frozen mid air. At least I have a new goal and area to improve my skills.

Following you on Da!

Also, tried giving it some movement. I don’t know if i succeed, but it was quite fun.

Yup, seems largely improved specially the dog and the feral hunter. They seem like they’re actually trying to catch my character there.

Great!

The trick is to avoid poses that can be… well, posed. If the character got stuff that could flow with the movement, like hair and scarfs, that goes too. And the essence of movement (Like, the drawing must be done in a way you could predict more or less exactly where the thing would end? I am bad at explaining)

I hope that helps? Idk though.

Hey, posting here because if not Chaz might not see it.

Read your webcomic, man. Read it all. Abd let me tell you, it was fantastic. I loved it so much! Really. Every time I write “really” it’s because… Really.

This kind of thing inspired me. Also, never knew of Comic Fury. Might try to make a little webcomic, for myself? Always promised that one day I’d try. Need to say that you inspired me, Chaz! Thanks![/quote]

Don’t kill me…

We see things holding still, we see them in a state of balance.
We see things moving, their bodies are not balanced, their center of gravity is way to one side or another. But their motion forward evens it out. Limbs going in opposing directions can balance too - like when our hands swing forward opposite to our feet when we walk. That’s not perfect though. Every step forward is technically using falling to our advantage. Like a pendulum!
It’s only when we see a still-frame of something that was moving, that its imbalance looks obvious.

Take the zombie dog for example: with its legs underneath it, it looked static. Twisting it changed it so its front legs are reaching where it wants to go, and its hind legs are pushing from where it was before. It could not stand still in that posture without tipping over, but our mind sort of fills in the gap by interpreting the pose as being in motion.

“Maybe I’ll draw, I haven’t drawn Ekarus in Catacylsm in forever…”

…maybe not.

Why not? D:
Draw, i command you (?

Best way to make me not draw a thing is to tell me I owe or should make some art hehe. (and yet suggesting a completion of anatomy guides works out? I’m back on my dexedrine finally, it does weird things to my artistic motivation.)

I get you. Got like a million drawings pending to do. But anatomy is so inspirational…

So what I have learned today?
SHARPEN YOUR PENS (and perhaps buy a harder one)
Don’t draw on the bus
Practice drawing humanoids (or even anything organic) more often than twice in 7 years*


How do I resize halp

*sadly, true story - I didn’t draw ANYTHING other than some, let’s call them “blueprints”, since early primary school. Then I saw this thread.
