so in an effort to help nurture more artists my self being one of them in the ways of lolicon so that we might have more ample supply of our chosen material.
here is stuff I spent a few days gathering and I shall add to it. please feel free to do the same( maybe eventually we change this over to its own board?

No.28686
>>28681
You are on the right track…
You need to exaggerate more, to go too far… then come back a bit, to get to "artistically acceptable perspective".
Eg, Ass up, arms and hands down, in 3D space, on the bed/off the bed… Hands and lower legs and feet should seem "smaller", while the ass and head should be slightly larger. Also, the thighs, which is a top-down view, should be about half the length, to simulate a cylinder at a 45-degree angle, which is about half the total length of what is "expected"… Which is why it seems flat. We expect that "Flat" model to have thighs that long, hands that large, body that small, as if they were laying flat.
If he is laying flat, that is a horrible pose. Look-up "strong poses", and that, if it were laying down, in that pose, is a weak pose that would never be drawn. Looks like he is climbing up the side of a building, hugging the wall. (Not an insult, just what you drew as a pose, as it portrays. I assume not as desired… doggy-style.)
The bed, same issue…
Attaching a sample. (Not a prime finished work of art.)
P.S. Wacom… Love it… and art-rage studio and Sketch-book Pro.
No.28687
>>28676
When learning to draw… You have to train your brain before you become good-enough to "guess from memory".
Trace real people, or other works of art. Get your brain and hand trained to the curves and proportions, trusting that no matter how "ODD" it looks while drawing, it will end-up looking right.
You have the same problem that I had a long time ago. You "remember" flat, and draw linear and flat… Arms 2.5' long, Legs 2.5' long, Torso 2.5' long… without taking into consideration that angels severely distort shapes and bring new curves into light.
What helped me learn, besides using good references and posing myself on webcams… was "Daz3D", which comes with good base-models you can pose and play with camera-angles, to get that perfect shot. (Instead of trying to hunt down what others already drew. But, you still use their drawings for reference, for what curves to draw, enhance, or ignore.)
P.S. Daz3D Pro is free… For now… get your license while you can.

I was going to draw a pillow under neath her, sort of raising her ass up but so as to jot allow her to lat flat. Bassically a halfway point between doggy and flat down. The folds in the blanket at her feet elbows and knees were to emphasise how displeased and or aroused she was. I will work on it more tomorrow(:
Thank you for the tips though i am currently oracticing foreshortening as you mentioned i should.

No.28775

No, not miles better… Like I said, you are on the right track.
(By the way my bed is way too small. Wasn't going for realism, your was more realistic in proportion there.)
That was just freehand, off the top of my head. Which is why it looks "off"… I never drew a pose like that, in that angle. It is a difficult position to draw well. (Eg, not a good power-pose.)
I was only trying to show an example of going too far, where you can later back-off, to something between, that, and yours.
Shades help too. That is the other good thing about playing with 3D models. You are not using the flat washed-out lighting that others have in photographs.
Same thing there, go dramatic on lighting, and then go back and tone it down.
Normally, when I do tattoo-art, I just build-up and keep squinting my eyes to blur the image, to get lighting to look right.
Keep drawing more. The more you see yourself progress, the better you will want to get. If you doubt your progression, look at your old drawings. My oldest stuff all ends-up in the trash anyways. My new stuff, however, is mostly digital 3DCG, with an occasional outline or cell-shaded conversion, done by hand.

Part of your issue is having a background, some people learn doing both others don't.
Figure out whats important to you, a damn good looking figure and character, or the atmosphere as a whole?
If it's figure, character, and pose, then i wouldn't worry about a background for now and just focus on learning to make really nice figures. There's a lot of major artists who are like this.
If the atmosphere as a whole is your thing, which generally requires background, you have to accept your figures may take a while to look decent and you'll have to try harder on subject mater but can benefit from bending the rules. Lot of artists like this too. Also helps a ton more to learn Color and Value here.

Question, why jump right into poses and sex rather than focus on learning some basic anatomy/structuring first?
This is great in one way since it gets you used to having poses. But i think a little bit of structuring is good. From what i can tell you're good at finding the poses you want but you can't quite see the depth just yet. On top of that intercourse and characters interacting with each other is very challenging stuff.
If you really want to learn foreshortening quickly i think you should do something more extreme and less involving multiple interacting characters. You'll have enough of a challenge making one character look proper i promise you that. But you shouldn't take it easy, do some really extreme angles. Doesn't matter if they always look bad keep doing them.
But also structure your drawings if you can, even if it's just a little. Most of the structuring images you find an artist may not draw all those details but they're at least thinking about it.
Lastly don't do just one pose, do a bunch, spend a short time on one pose before moving to another if you're just learning before moving into other stuff. Beginners tend to have attachment to each and every small drawing, don't do that, it doesn't help you. Value the sketchbook as a whole not the drawings.
Oh and stop doing short strokes, it shows, do longer ones using your entire arm rather than your wrist. If you get friction from the pad, buy smudgeguard or put some panyhose around your pinky and ring finger.
These two images will help you a ton.

Just adding that the houses in there, are complete houses… Inner walls, wall-trim, doors and door trims, full kitchens, some other room components.
These were left untextured here, for "painting" in a paint-program, for that "non-rendered" look.
Most stuff was made in sketchup. (That is the sketchup scale-girl that comes with the default scene.) I had to shrink the houses and Ferris-wheel and other stuff to fit on the city-street intersection.
Here is another sample… Unrelated… Not "my model"… Just one of the characters used, based off Daz3D's model "Skyler", but with the Gen3 genitals added. Only rendered in true-light, and a backdrop, for showing someone the model. Normally I would just use it to pose and be my "reference" for drawing.

A lot cheaper, and same hardware is the "Motion computing J3600" sold on ebay for around $700 to $1200.
The $700 ones are i3/i5
The $1200 ones are i5/i7
Both have the bright screen "view anywhere". The older ones… LE1700 around $160 are the lowest I would go.
They all have "Wacom" digitizers built-in. Actual "Wacom", not knock-offs like many Toshiba models have.
However, they are all crappy on battery power. Because they are the juiced-up versions of the mobile processors, made for temporary off-power use. (Normally they are on docks and running off live power, which is not an inconvenience as most laptops run this way, 90% of the time. Makes for great "power-outtage, help save-me" use.)
Plus, they all have video-out for monitor duplication and as a secondary extended desktop. Great for more true colors if you have an actual true-color IPS monitor, otherwise it is the same as the rest.

Bruh, there's no reason not to learn shading at any point in your artistic career. By increasing your grasp on shading you also get a better feel for the three-dimensional nature of your subject and can therefore grasp the errors you make in your art better. When I started out my artistic career I did nothing but color stuff, and I think that helped my eventual step into actual drawing.
>>30649
As for you I can't give any specific advice since I don't work in Gimp. I would advice you to get a tablet if you want to shade, since without it you won't be able to do any kind of blending. If you're too strapped for cash I'd advice looking into cel-shading, since that's just solid blocks of shadow without softer transition most of the time. A simple google search will give you a lot of resources regardless.
If you wanna do blending in gimp, or any program for that matter, all you need is a basic hard round brush. Set opacity to pen-pressure and use the color picker liberally. You can do this with a mouse too, but it's fucking impossible to get a smooth result, at least in my experience.

there's a lot of crap advice and subpar tutorials in this thread and unfortunately i'm about to spew the same advice that people should have already given you.
if you want to learn how to draw lolis then learn how to draw people. learn the musculature and skeletal structure along with body fat distributions and the anatomical subtleties between the male and female form, solidify your understanding of range of movement with gesture and figure drawing, study paintings and photographs for their colour and values, do self portraits, draw objects in your room from multiple angles, focus on specific aspects of your artwork that is falling behind and don't forget to do the things you enjoy doing while you're working towards improvement.
do you think people who make good tutorials just learn from other tutorials? they learn from studying real life and for whatever god forsaken reason they decided that for everyone else a tutorial should suffice. it won't.
following anime tutorials will just impede your progress towards draw proper human bodies. you're going to eventually want to study real people anyway to improve, so why not just start there? the examples posted here, especially when it comes to loli proportions and body shapes are just oversimplified derivative observations that in general don't even look good.
once you can draw a decent looking human form in any pose you want, drawing anime is just simplification and stylistic application.
if you want to learn hair, study real hair and understand hair growth patterns, then take that knowledge and apply it based on what you see in anime.
whatever.

The issue is people being unwilling to learn this stuff in the process, or take time to develop their skill at all.

Those are the artists who are stuck with one single art style and NEVER improve. They're stuck at the same skill level forever. So yes, they'll be great at drawing lolis in one style, but will they be able to add 'depth' to their art? For example, perspective? More than 5 or 6 poses? etc.

If you learn the basics, over time you'll learn how to apply your taste to your work, and it's easier to see your flaws and weaknesses.

Your colors are too light, and the shading/highlighting tones are way too close to your base color. I made a thing to help demonstrate what I'm talking about, hope you don't mind me doodling your character.
No.1: Your colors, pulled as best as I could from the image you posted. Your shading tones aren't dark enough, and since the colors are so light you don't have any wiggle-room color-wise to highlight, so it feels a bit flat. Maybe it's just my monitors, but I can barely even see the dot I made for her base skin color in the palette down there.
No.2: Your base colors, with darker shade tones and lighter highlights where I could make them. Colors can now be used to define features instead of inked lines (i.e. bridge of the nose). It's not bad, but still feels limited to me.
No.3: The shade tones from No.2 are now the base. I can now use highlights to help give depth. The girl got a bit of a tan in the process, but this was more to demonstrate a point than about character accuracy.
I got those dark shades by nudging the color wheel closer to the red then decreasing brightness slightly and increasing saturation.
I didn't mess with line colors in my sketches here, but those definitely need to be darker as well if you're not going with straight black.
Still, it's not a bad try. Shading is a tricky thing to get the hang of, so don't feel discouraged. Keep it up, and keep drawing!

I was at first afraid that the colors would be too different, but now that I look at it, they could use some contrast.

No, but the only shit ones are niggers. Asian and white are best lolis. Also the funny part is the black ones are not drawn with black feature 95% of the time, they are literally the same facial features as Asian or white just colored balck.

Hard to provide countless examples when there's hardly any black people show in anime. I've seen like what, probably 3 characters?. Either way, regardless animu characters dont represent white/asian features besides straight hair.

They do in said shows I mentioned with human features. In both the ones with human features and cliche anime features both do not depict black people as any different other than being colored black. If you've only seen 3 how could you claim it's a majority that they are drawn realistically?

Because most of the other "darker" skinned characters i saw seem to be depicted as brown (indian for ex), not black (in my opinion at least, the creators hardly ever specify what they are if its not mention specifically in the anime/manga).
If anime was supposed to depict a races facial features, why do they japanese characters have huge eyes like that? Thats not a realistic depiction isnt it?
Point is stop looking too deep into it. Anime isn't meant to realistically depict any races features. There just supposed to look cute/attractive. Otherwise asian characters should visibly look different than white characters. And they do not.

It's not "looking deep" I'm just not being blind, don't try to push it off. You keep saying the same thing even after I out right say even in shows that don't have the anime style, many anime has human features. Since you want to deflect it shows I am correct, they they are not "black" Just a dark color swap version of ever other girl in anime. And the character you mentioned do look different in the non cliche anime chows that I have been talking about this whole time. It's true and there's nothing left oto say about it, whether or not you bring up generic big eyed characters again.

Pro tip: stretch out your drawing hand before and after your drawing sessions. Could even be prudent to take a stretching break during the session if it's a really long one. Carpal tunnel and other hand ailments are no joke, and should not be taken lightly. Don't kill your artistic career before it really gets started!

Thanks a lot for these OP.
I've been taking a drawing course at uni for the past few weeks thus far, and I did these two recently.
I'm just having the most utter trouble with faces, feet and hands.
Feet and hands perhaps it is because I need larger space to give them more detail, but as far as faces go I cannot, absolutely cannot create a respectable face, life-like or cartoonish.
Whatever I make for a "face" ends up being a disaster and my drawings look like they have downs syndrome and 40 other things wrong with them.
Does anybody have any tips for that?
Also area shading to give a more life-like look to as well.
Thanks. Pics for reference.

Your problem is the same as most beginners, they're bad at drawing and draw like they write with their wrist.
My advice is learn to make simpler drawings, or drawings in less strokes. Use your arm not your wrist.
Practice gesture drawings so you can get decent possess then go back to learning proportion then more specific anatomy.
This vid will help

Actually I also have the sense you have no concept of perspective and form, learn that or you won't go anywhere decent.
I don't get any sense that you're thinking of your drawing in 3d space, just lines to a shape.
And I don't mean shading either, it shows in your drawing, you have no sense of form.
Practice stricture drawing, it's that thing you see in anatomy tutorials where they break things down into simple shapes. That has more to do with how you think than the anatomy itself most of the time. It teaches you a sense of form and perspective.

I'd suggest you finish up that pic as quickly as you can and move on to a new one. Learning to draw is a long process, and to be honest the first couple of months you'll be doing this you're gonna be absolute crap at it.
The only advice that I think is widely applicable to everyone when it comes to art is this: "Fail faster". Just draw a lot of different things, look at what you're not good at, and practice it. Don't spend several days on a single pic when you can instead spend the same time doing several projects and learning from the mistakes you'll no doubt make with those.
Also, study artists you like. Look at how they do things, and try to figure out what their process is like.

you're using a very light background. You must adjust the foreground color to match well with the background. I use 60-40% gray background.
The uppper body length should be at least 1.5 - 2 heads, yours exceed 2 heads. You can fix it by making the head bigger or shorten the body. She's lacking hips too.
The knees position is wrong. It needs to be same length from crotch to shoulder (crotch to knees).
I learned drawing by measuring my own body, loli is a challenge since you can't find enough IRL resources.
It's not about practice, its about building your fundamentals.

Nice! I quite like it so far. I'd suggest making the dick a little thicker though, it seems a bit small for the size of the guy fucking her, even if it is better sized for her pussy. While guys can have small dicks like that, I think it just looks better if more proportionate. Plus it makes the bulging she's got going on seem more plausible. :)

I've been working on this recently and I think its decent enough to move on to the coloring phase, but I'm still concerned about the anatomy, specifically the head and neck. Does it look ok?

where the neck meets the shoulder makes it look like if she was standing straight that her neck would be off to the side, I'm no anatomy expert or anything but in my opinion I think making it a bit more like pic related would help.

You just need to work on your understanding of anatomy, it looks to me like you started with her legs facing straight on with the camera and then later added the rest of her body in a position thats not actually possible to hold with how her legs are facing.
Poses like that are complicated and unless you have a comprehensive understanding of anatomy or rely heavily on a reference its bound to look off by the end.
Instead of trying to fix an image based on a shoddy foundation just keep pumping out new art while studying anatomy and you'll understand where you went wrong on this one, practice makes perfect.
