Well... I'm new to try out the drawings on the computer and such, so... I'm trying to find out how to put the image I drew a few moment ago to the computer. It would be nice if someone can tell me how to transfer the pictures from paper to online. Well, here is a couple I'm currently working on and some are already finished. Some aren't anime-ish, so... Yeah. :whistle:

11140
Well, I sent this off to one of the Forums Games. :P

11141
I was drawing this on the computer *AND YES, I suck at computer drawing* as a quick test to one of the characters I was planning to draw on paper soon... I'm still coloring her in another location, but it's not finished.

EDIT: Two of these drawings are from the program: Paint. I'm using Gimp 2 to color in the pictures.

Wow! You have your own drawings posted up too!

You can make the eyes of the girl in the second picture a little less curved up, the position lower, and less long, and more wide. Maybe you can widen the overall shape of the face.

Well, thats how I would draw anyways ^-^

Ah, yes. I should do that, but I don't really have much time except go to bed now and wrap things up. I'll do that later. Thanks for the feedback! :3

Cool. I like the bunny (Already said in the other thread is cute and funny :)). The paint one is not bad for a start. Was you using a mouse or a laptop's touch pad? D:

Oh, and the thing on her shirt, reminds me to Tetris!

Mouse, but my hands are really shaky most of the time.

For now, I'm just going to post whatever anime drawings I have online, but if I can figure out how to put my drawings from paper to online, then I'll post them up immediately. Sorry about it.

Nyu001
August 21st, 2010, 04:10 pm
You can try taking a pic to your drawings. That is what I do since I don't have a scanner. xP

animefans12
August 21st, 2010, 04:30 pm
Hm... Sounds like a good idea. I'll do that when I have time. Thanks for the idea, Nyu001!

11148

EDIT: This picture was almost a year ago I made. Um... It was one of my Spanish 1 homework online and I since I still have it, why not post it? Same program, it's Paint, but I do not have Gimp 2 that time.

*NOTE: I don't just draw anime and manga characters. So don't expect everything to be anime-ish*

August 21st, 2010, 11:11 pm
HOORAY!!! I did what Nyu001 said and I can finally show my drawings! Though it might not be the best quality, this is the best I can do. :3

Here are the pictures:

11151
It's Neko Arc or something like that along the line... TT. I just actually did that an hour ago.

11152
Shino from Izuna and Izuna 2. I didn't do so well with the arm there... TT;; I did this an hour and a half ago.

11153
Sorry it's sideway. I'll find out how to fix it later on with the pictures. For now, this and the next picture is sideway. It won't happen again later. Ahem, back to topic. This is actually last summer in my place that I drew this. I definately don't like the hands, but I suck on it, so...

11154
Got a bit better, but the hands still suck. Other than that, yeah. It's another one I did last summer.

Once again, thanks Nyu001 for helping me. :D

Nyu001
August 21st, 2010, 11:24 pm
I like the first one a lot! :) The second ones looks really cool also. Do you mean last summer of last year? Looking at them chronologically, it shows that you have improved, that is good! keep improving and posting more of them!

Nice to see. :)

animefans12
August 21st, 2010, 11:32 pm
Thanks for your feedback and no, last summer as in summer THIS year. Sorry I didn't make it clear enough. Me and my messed up English. TT;; Hm... I'll post again since today, I have a real bad urge to draw everything I see now. >:3

I'm currently working on drawing Amamiya Yuuko from Ef - A Tale of Memories/Melodies and I'm almost finished with it.

EDIT: Here are more artwork that I did:

11162
I finished her up! I'm sure it looks cool, but the shadings... It looks like I overdid it. :heh:

11161
After finishing up Amamiya Yuuko, I decided to crack up my extra time by drawing Saber from Fate/Stay Night. This one is Light Saber? I'm not sure, but I know it's Saber. Took me forever to get the hair and eyes right. TT

Nyu001
August 22nd, 2010, 02:41 pm
Nice! You are doing great! You should have posted before... like months ago, hehe. :D

animefans12
August 22nd, 2010, 05:23 pm
11163
Miku Hatsune.

Not sure why the quality got worse, but I'll fix it later on. For now, yeah... <_<

To Nyu001: I actually wanted to post a couple of drawings, but they weren't as good as now and I didn't really have much drawing time. TT;;

Nyu001

My I warn some of you for a sec? I know this might be weird, but I have really low creativity going around in my brain, so many of the drawings that are original might not look so professional as expected. Well, here are the final pictures for today:

11164
Once again, sorry for the bad picture angle. Anyway, this is the main character from Persona 4 (P4).

11165
Just made her up on the last second? I know you're wondering why I slapped the hands behind her back, but that's how her pose is. I'm not trying to hide the hands...

RainingSilver64
August 23rd, 2010, 01:00 am
Thoughts still aren't processing very well...the first one. The angle is fine, the head is a bit weird. Second one...body proportions/skirt?...

Good job with the clothes detail/making them look 3D though.

animefans12
August 23rd, 2010, 01:12 am
Yeah... I can already tell by the time I posted it on here. I was so into drawing it that I completely forgot to look at it in a distance. It works to check out if you have problem with it. :P Thanks for the feedback! I'll keep that in mind.

i enjoy the thing i draw at the very last second. it's kinda interesting to know what comes out when you don't really think too much... and ultimately realize what you like to draw. the girl looks quite nice. the body is a little smaller than the face, but that could be your style. i also think the clothes your characters wear are pretty interesting.

I should try to not avoid hands. Maybe that is why mines always sucks. :whistle:

I'm back~ And I'm going to draw more~ Since weekends are here~ But I have too many homework~ So that might not be possible. TT

I'll post something when I have time. For now, nothing yet.

Sorry for the late delay! Too many school work and not enough time. Forgive me, please! ><;;

11188
Wanted to draw chibi characters. Been a while since doing it, so I just randomly drew this girl... Hm... Need to work on the eyes.

11189
I was really tired, so I decided to draw out this guy being, well... looking kind of tired? I have no idea what his expression is, but more like exhausted lookin'.

These two art are done in total of 10 minutes. I wasn't really into it, so I just drew and drew with a lazy hand.

EDIT: GAH! Forgot about flipping the pictures around! Uh... Just deal with it. You might see me run into these problems since I don't think straight sometimes. For this problem, I'm really tired and it's 10:27 PM, so... I'm heading to sleep after posting this. *Yawn*

For me, you just need to go to the option "Go Advanced" instead of "Post Quick Reply". Then, you should see bunches of options there. You see that little wierd pin or something that you put in when you have many papers that needed to be organized? Yep, click on that and there's a browse button and the upload buttion. From there, you can browse the picture on your computer for pictures you want to put up. I advice that you put your imported pictures that you drew and that you've taken it on the camera on your desktop. It might seem weird and messy, but trust me, you'll be finding it easier. Anyway, you would click "Browse" and they'll show you your desktop or whatever documents. Click on the "Desktop" and search through them. You should see thost pictures you drew there. Double click on it, and it'll be on the blank space of the Browse button. Click "Upload" and give it a few seconds. Ta-dah! Your first picture is on! But don't forget, you HAVE TO DO IT ONE AT A TIME. And, when you finish those uploading things, you can exit out of that and return to your message/post *It shouldn't be deleted or removed* You see that wierd pin again? Right next to it, looks like an arrow pointing downward or if not, a small triangle upsidedown. Click on that and you'll see your pictures that was uploaded to it. Click on it and it'll be attached to the message. And just keep on adding more... and more... until you finish uploading all of the pictures you want. I hope this helped and ESPECIALLY the members who wanted to know how to upload pictures on Ichigo's by camera.

KEEP NOTE: When you import your picture to the computer, usually, they're going to suddenly pop up a document with all of the pictures that you imported. Drag it and place it on your desktop or whatever you prefer. Mind that it's best to keep a seperate document for your drawings. I do that to keep organized.

*Whew...* Okay, that should cover up everything. And please, if you have questions, best to PM me or if not, leave a visitor message on my profile? I don't care if you ask questions here if you want that still. :3 Hope to see your pictures soon! :3 :3

This is really bad rough draft of my sample manga. Don't even think about it. It's not finished and the character might change like a HECK LOT, so... Yeah. Here it is, not sure about the story, but whatever. I'll add bubbles on my final draft. *READ RIGHT TO LEFT, THE ORIGINAL WAY*

Well... Yeah, that's the preview! And yeah... I'm going to keep on drawing still figures and really bad sample manga. Soon enough, within another couple of years or so, I might get better.

August 31st, 2010, 06:59 pm
What is going on in the manga?:heh:

What I understood was a girl was going to harm the other but then there is a beast that harm her?

mangaluva
August 31st, 2010, 08:31 pm
I would still suggest lowering the position of the eyes.

animefans12
August 31st, 2010, 09:44 pm

What I understood was a girl was going to harm the other but then there is a beast that harm her?

This is WHY I NEED TO ADD BUBBLES. I haven't, so it looks like an unknown scene. The story was suppose to be about a girl holding the butcher knife injuring the other girl, which should be her best buddy. Then, she notices that she didn't kill her best friend, so she called out that dog-creature thingy-a-ma-chig to hunt after her best friend since she fled. Not sure about that, but I'm going to try to add a flashback scene on what the heck is going on. Sorry about that... I'm going to edit it big time sooner or later when I have time. :heh:

To mangaluva: I tried doing that, but that wasn't my style. Lowering the eyes make me feel really uncomfortable with the looks. It might be better, but for me, it's not coming as naturally as I thought. Sorry about it... BUT I'm still going to keep using that as reference so when I make a different character with a different look or something, I can use that. THanks! :3

Ander
August 31st, 2010, 10:14 pm
what's going on in that thing. was that a comb she was holding, or a hatchet?

oh... the flashbacks will definitely help.

animefans12
August 31st, 2010, 10:34 pm
I said it in the description above your message, but she definately is holding a butcher knife.......... WHAT THE HECK. A hatchet then. This is a bad rough draft and I was just flying time away with it. I didn't pay too much attention to what the story is about, so... I'm going to try to make one up. If that doesn't work. erase a couple of scene and replace it with something fittable.

ONE MORE THING TO ADD! Once I'm finish with this sample manga, which I have a strong feeling of leaving a cliffhanger ending, not going to make any sequel or something like that. I'm trying to test it out on how to make those dumb manga boxes to put pictures in them and such. SO.... It's basically a test, not a real story I'm going to publish out. TT;; Might make another sample manga though... It's not going to be this bad. I know that.

:P Read Bakuman. It's a manga about...manga. Although it's fictional and has a story, it still explains the basics, like what a name is, which will probably help you organize the story a bit, even if you're not going to publish any of it.

animefans12
September 2nd, 2010, 07:19 pm
Hm... I should start reading Bakuman then...Thanks! And isn't it created by the same artist who drew Death Note?

RainingSilver64
September 2nd, 2010, 07:38 pm
Yup.

animefans12
September 2nd, 2010, 07:57 pm
Hm... So I was right... Okay. I'll read Bakuman when I have time in order to improve my sample manga strip. Once again, thank you! :3

:V Personally I don't think that's very... say, good. It's about licensing/seralizing manga, improving plot, switching editors, drama, etc. etc. etc. Though it may have some useful lessons, I don't think the things ya gain reading it will outweigh the time ya spend (if only to learn about manga).

animefans12
September 2nd, 2010, 10:39 pm
Well... I guess I can check online lessons on manga and such like that... All I have is my camera, bunches of paper, and my trusted pen and pencil. :P

True, but the beginning does have some useful information she could salvage. Oh, and improving the plot is important too...and who doesn't enjoy reading a good manga? :D

animefans12
September 5th, 2010, 03:38 pm
Let's see... While I'm drawing my stuff, I'll say a bit on how I started drawing manga/anime. When I was young (around...6 years old), I started taking interest into drawing simple, yet amazing characters like Garfield and Tom and Jerry, etc. I merely did not copy them by going over them, but I trained my eyes to look at the object/picture and started drawing on my own sheet of paper. Later on in the years, when I moved down to Florida, I started watching Naruto and all that other Toonami/Toonami Jetstream anime. When I found out they were anime, I started drawing them. Obviously, my first drawn anime character was Sakura Haruno, but later on, I wanted to draw with my own creation of anime character, so I started learning how to draw by watching lessons online and reading them. They helped a bit, and every year, my drawings have improved. As I started watching and growing into more to anime/manga, I also took more time to copy some drawings from the computer to paper, so... There we have it. That's how I started my drawing hobby or something like that. ^^;;

EDIT: Sorry about the huge delay, but something just happened. My camera's fine with taking the picture I have for the drawings I have, but my computer won't respond to it. So it might take a while for me to get the pictures up. :heh: But when they're up and I solved the problem, I should be able to post more than 2-3 pictures by then. For now, just hang on. Sorry about it.

animefans12
September 6th, 2010, 05:02 pm
Oh wait. I fixed it just in time. :heh: Anyway, I'm just gonna upload it one by one since I was testing to make sure my camera and computer didn't break to pieces. Well, here's one:

11237
Well... This is Marina from Valkyria Chronicle. Yeah... Not one of the best, but hey, better tried then did nothing, right?

RainingSilver64
September 6th, 2010, 06:33 pm
Lolz, I always have trouble with side views too XD. The back of the head is a bit weird, and I think the chin should slant inward a bit rather than out...other than that, I can't say much, because I hate drawing side views...

animefans12
September 6th, 2010, 07:32 pm
LOL. I agree with you that I also hate the side view. :D

animefans12
September 11th, 2010, 12:47 pm
Um... Are you mistakening that this is your thread of drawings? :heh:

Anyway, sorry for the delay since my camera went berserk for a while. But it's fixed now... AGAIN. TT;;

11248
I like the first face better than the rest...

11249
My younger sister wanted me to draw this, so why not post it up here? It's Takashima from Special A.

mangaluva
September 11th, 2010, 05:23 pm
I would say improving on the shape of those heads. It seems.... a little off.
Also the hair is a little spikey and gives a unnatural look to the face. I would still say make the eyes a bit lower. ^-^

Mushyrulez
September 14th, 2010, 03:34 am
Is the third face supposed to be really shocked or weird slit-eyes? :V

animefans12
September 14th, 2010, 11:01 am
The really weird slit-eye one. You know how some anime character would have this expression when they're acting all sly... and some are "Cat" characters, then yeah...

Mushyrulez
September 15th, 2010, 12:43 am
Add one more line and make her shocked!

animefans12
September 30th, 2010, 10:53 am
I know you're wondering why the pictures aren't being posted up in a while.... I might have time later on in the weekends after my marching band competition to post up something... Sorry about it! ><;;

EDIT: This might be weird, but the earlier rough draft manga wasn't really cleaned up after all... So I decided to drop it and do something else. Hey, I made a really short one page manga that actually looks right. TT;;

11385

Whoo~ I finally posted once again! :3 It won't be daily anymore since school's pushing me on the edge.

Some of the pictures do look weird and yes, some angles of the faces are completely wrong looking and don't say that I didn't notice that. TT;; It was already too late when I figured it out. <_<

EDIT: If you're wondering when I drew these three, it was two months ago. Darn it... I really need to draw more... Let's start with this picture and... *Mutters on and on*

Ander
October 11th, 2010, 02:14 am
im guessing the first one is Miku. Her arms are too long compare to her body. you should try to draw some outlines... like a very soft circle and fill in with eyes and mouth and stuff... cause it seems like you just go straight into drawing the eyes and mouth. i did that too, but when you draw some circles and stuff, it kinda helps. but it's up to you. i didn't do it for the longest time and i didn't understand why i would draw something circles before drawing the actual face, but one day it will just click.

animefans12
October 11th, 2010, 11:02 am
Good point there and no, it's not Miku Hatsune. I just randomly made her up. If it's Miku, I would've done things differently.

Ander
October 12th, 2010, 10:32 pm
:heh: sorry. i'm not really into that anime but i was just guessing.

It's alright. It's natural for us to make mistakes and guess on things. If not, that wouldn't be human, right? :P

There was a lockdown in my school just two days ago... Well... I was stuck in my 5th period class for 2 hours, so I just drew to kill time. I actually thought I did a bit better than before with my drawings. :)

11400
I think I did a whole lot better than before with the body. :3

11401
Dango~ Dango~ Dango~ :3

11402
Didn't finish this one, but I don't even plan on finishing him. TT;;

Nyu001
October 16th, 2010, 05:26 pm
The girl in the first one looks so short. She looks like a strong girl, someone that will beat you if you mess with her, lol. :3 What is Dango? xP

RainingSilver64
October 16th, 2010, 06:28 pm
Dango are sweet dumpings XD. I love Korean dango, except we don't call them dango, lolz.

Yeah, I'm with Nyu001 on the first girl, lolz.
She looks pretty proportionate except her shoulders are a bit broad, neck a bit too short, and her head a bit big. Well...that is, if you meant for her to be an elementary schooler...then you also need to flatten the chest a bit, haha. If you meant for her to be older, she definitely needs those proportions fixed plus a growth spurt X].

Oh, and I just noticed, you drew her chin so it doesn't lead into her ear. It should lead into her ear, but when you do, you'll probably want to erase the turning point so her face doesn't look as sharp/hard. If you're not sure what I'm talking about(since I'm sugar-high at the moment and have no clue what I'm typing), I'll try to explain it differently at another time, or I'll draw it out to show you what I mean.

animefans12
October 16th, 2010, 06:40 pm
Don't worry. I get what you mean. Thanks for the tips! I'll take that and add that to my growing knowledge of drawings. :3

Huh... Looks like I have to make the legs longer... TT;; I always think making the legs longer look so wrong, but maybe I'm wrong.... Maybe I'm wrong...

RainingSilver64
October 16th, 2010, 09:26 pm
Whenever I draw, to make sure the body is proportionate(the upper and lower body anyways), I see that the lower body is the same length as the upper body. For some anime/manga styled drawings though, I think the legs are either a) usually longer, mostly in shoujo manga, or b) it appears longer because the characters are very skinny.

I checked your first drawing with that, and the upper body and lower body are the same. If you want to make her taller, you can't just make the legs longer, you have to change the upper and lower body proportionately. ^_^

If you want to make her taller, you can't just make the legs longer, you have to change the upper and lower body proportionately.
That's not really a set rule though. There are significant variations in proportions between individuals. Some people will have relatively long legs, and some people will have relatively short legs. And as you said, a lot of anime characters have legs slightly longer than average. You can actually make anime legs pretty damned long before they start to look bad! Generally, the shorter your character's legs, the dumber, slower, and stronger they'll look. The longer they are, the weaker, faster, more agile, and more clever they'll look. Ninja have long legs, brawlers have short legs! When you're trying to make a pretty girl, give her long legs!

The character in question would actually look better with longer legs. The real reason she looks bad (or the main one, anyway), is that her head is freakishly large. It's almost as wide as her shoulders, and she's only about four heads tall, whereas the "ideal" (read: greek god-ish) human is *eight* heads tall. Because of this, she looks like a stunted dwarf. You could just erase her head and make it smaller, and it'd make the whole picture look much better.

About her ears, human ears usually begin at eye level, and end at the bottom of the nose. Her ears are placed way too high up.

XD Lol.

Yeah, you're right, sorry about that. It's just that I don't like making the legs too long on the girls I draw, or else their skirts, dress, etc. usually end up becoming really short, and sometimes you won't even realize it.

As for the eight head things...I guess that works, but I don't consciously use it, I just make sure that the upper and lower body are the same height if I want a proportionate character.

But as you said, Animefan's character here has a 1:1 leg torso ratio going on, and it still looks wrong. Head height is way more important than the ratio of the length of the legs in relationship to the body. Like I said, head height makes the character look either shorter or taller; leg-torso height makes them look stronger/faster.

Yeah, you're right, sorry about that. It's just that I don't like making the legs too long on the girls I draw, or else their skirts, dress, etc. usually end up becoming really short, and sometimes you won't even realize it.
Make their skirts longer? You should be drawing clothing *after* the character anyway, right? XD

i agree with hopeless composer regarding the body. i was taugh that from your pubic area to top of your head should be the same length as your pubic to the bottom of your feet. drawing skeleton figures help dramatically.

a question came to my mind when i was checking your third drawing of a guy's face. did you try to draw the lines before drawing any of the face? cause i definitely don't think you drew his eye brows across his whole face without a reasonable purpose. lol.

This one is mainly the only clean and clear picture of it, however it isn't finished yet, sadly.

I am happy that you used the acute accent in "Música". A lot people here always forget it or they even do not know that "Música" has an acute accent, lol.

Something horrible here is that the old Conservatory of Music where I studied, "Música" did not have the acute accent in their main building. It was very frustrating seeing the letter "u" without the acute accent. I included that mistake in my 80 photography of errors that I had to present in another college. >:3

Zero looks pretty good. I would suggest that you darken the thing that are closest to you. I mean like the pointy things such as the knuckles of his hand that carries the sword, the point of the sword, his left foot should be darker than the rest of the pic. Try it out. It'll surprise you. Basically, closer the object, darker it should be.

Rei from Fatal Frame III. You can already see that I didn't even bother to clean up the page, the face does look funny (duh), didn't bother to add details to her shirt, and this is the cleanest picture I could get before my camera died. -.-''

Ander
April 27th, 2011, 07:58 pm
An interesting style you got it going. I first noticed her expression... and I have no idea what's she's thinking... which is good... because I wouldn't understand what she's going through... The next thing I noticed is her nose. It's a bit high no...? It's as if her tip of her nose is right below the eye.... but surprisingly it works with the style. Narrowing down her face might look better though.

animefans12
April 27th, 2011, 11:34 pm
^I'll take that into consideration and yes, the nose is suppose to be like that. Oh, and I took the picture at a funky angle since my camera died that time, so she does look a bit... strange in that picture. :P

Her expression is more like it's mixed with feelings... er... how can I explain it... She lost her lover to a car accident caused by her being on the wheel and felt super depressed about it. Then, she became super depressed, blah blah blah and went to take a picture of a haunted house. Saw the film being develop and it showed her lover. She then gets thrown into a nightmare whenever she sleeps and has this curse on her. In her dream, she has the Camera Obscura (The camera she's holding onto in the picture) to get rid of ghosts and evil spirits in her nightmare-that-seems-to-be-like-reality. (If you die in a dream, you die in real life. Reminds me of the video game, Catherine. O_O)

2. Ryougi Shiki (Kara no Kyoukai)
3. Saber (Fate/Stay Night)
4. Arcueid (Tsukihime)
5. ?

Not sure what the last character is, but she has purple hair and wears a hat.

I like both of the drawings. First I want to mention the most bottom character in the first post. I'm sure the character is facing right. I just hope to see more of the angle. Perhaps tilting his head away from us might look better. The last character looks awesome, and here's why. The expression. Anticipation comes to my mind. Hair. Definitely looks like it's in front of the face. Eyes. Appear as if they are looking pass me. Eyebrows. For sure they look like they are muscles beneath them.

Well, to tell you the truth... not everyone can "copy". First, it takes time and effort to do it and it takes more to make it look remotely close to the original picture like you said. Second, now you are that much closer to understanding what makes that drawing look nice. Now you will, hopefully, find more ways to be creative with your skill. I don't know. I just hope that I am helpful in some way. :heh:

I see that you're upset about Deuce's hair. Part of it is because you were so eager draw the top of her head when the angle of her face clearly tells me that her head won't be visible, or at least the top of her head won't be. I never played a game, and I didn't even know it was a final fantasy game.... O.o But I did get to check out the characters and it seems like they are very cool.

Anyway... if anything... just try to erase some part so her hair (sidebang? not the bang but the hair hanging down by her cheeks) looks like it's starting from the side and not from the top of her head.... so I would suggest you start by erasing some part on the top of her head. yeah?:D

Oh god! what's with the eye on the first guy?? Did not need to see that. What I really enjoyed was the girl with a grenade. She's very cute. And the fact that she has a grenade just throws me off. but i think that makes her even cuter. The second guy surely gives a sense of longing. I still like the girl. i think it's because you made her face very clear and the rest somewhat blurry. Unlike the first guy. The lines on him has no dynamic. It's looks way stationary it's almost boring. But I want to see some more.
