Vesoralla's Manga Art

[Charcoal]

I MIGHT make a video of how I draw my manga characters. Maybe that way you can tell me what I ought to do or shouldn't do...things like that.

Well, here you go guys. A boring video of me drawing.

Sorry that it's 20 minutes long. I wanted to show you all of what I do when drawing a manga character.
Also, I hope my voice and video recording isn't so cringe worthy.
The video abruptly ends because my phone reached maximum capacity I think.

But yeah, I hope this gives you a better idea of what I do and what I need to work on.

EDIT: I'll put a couple more drawings in addition as well.

Another Boy and Girl drawing: show

In this drawing, I drew the hair based off of the singer Aimee Mann from the band 'Til Tuesday:

Crazy Haired Girl: show

So I think the main thing to work on is linework. You were very careful with the eyes, which is why they always come out fine, but going over your lines a lot ruins the image unless it's a large picture.

Confidence in your strokes and willingness to use the eraser.

Yeah. I also am trying to look for a way to draw hands better (which I might be okay for now), feet, and a consistent method of drawing hair...and I guess the rest of the body, but that's probably not too big of an issue right now.

It's been several days, but I'm back with more art. These are some fan art I drew for Smash 4.

This one was for my best friend at school. He requested I draw his two mains Dark Pit and Lucina, so I did:

Dark Pit and Lucina: show

I'm so hyped for this character; I really am:

Female Corrin: show

I didn't draw Cloud or Bayonetta, but I might draw them if I'm up for it.

This Corrin totally doesn't look like Fiora

Well done!

I feel really guilty for not replying to comments. I couldn't really think of anything I wanted to say in response to LF's post above.

Anyway, I'm thinking about keeping a consistent rate of 2 drawings per post on here. I think it would be less of a hassle for me so I don't keep trying to figure out how many drawings will I do in the next post, and it's a little quicker; and it's...better...for me...I think.

So 2 drawings:

All I did in this one was draw the guy adjusting his glasses while standing, and I went over it in pen; and I had nothing else planned for this one.

glasses: show

I certainly like drawing water.

Sunset and Lake: show

[Charcoal]

Like I said, I'm doing 2 drawings per post, and I have 2 more right now. So here they are.

Tried drawing a street. Looks meh to me. I don't like drawing buildings or a lot of urban things I guess...I don't know:

street at night: show

I really like this one just because my whiteout tool appears to be awesome at drawing snow:

snowy night: show

[Charcoal]

2 more. They're both snow themed.

That post about my parents: here's a drawing of how I expressed myself for that:

Fear: show

Here's a happier one. I thought about drawing blonde female Corrin, but I had already drawn green eyes instead of red; so it was kinda too late for that:

Happy Girl in the Snow: show

[Charcoal]

Alright, this one is NSFW, and I mean it. If seeing blood makes you sick, do not look at it. I have warned you, and that's that, okay? I"m not in a good mood right now. I'm really hating myself at the moment.

Here it is if you want to see it anyway:

NSFW Drawing: show

And yes, he is flipping himself off. I've just had it with screwing up. I can't take it anymore. I can't take not being able to express myself very, I can't take harsh words or criticism from people. I hate failing so many times without any deal of success for it. I don't want to deal with it. I hate going through it; it's embarrassing. It makes feel like worthless trash. I just...all this...and it's not only issue...I've just had it! I just want to end it all now, but I'm too scared to do it!

Sigh...anyway, here's something that's not NSFW:

Blue haired boy: show

[Oranjui]

I dunno, I feel like you're expressing yourself pretty damn well through art.

That aside, those are some really solid hands. You've had some pretty awesome improvement in that respect since way back two and a half months ago. Nice work. In fact, just looking through this thread overall, I think you've come really far as an artist with this practice. Be proud of it. I'd love to see you continue keeping it up.
