Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

I love this! Idk if that's you, or if its like someone's sassy aunt but I feel this vibe so hard! Only thing I have to say is the hatching on the ear is kind of hard core. I mean, the ear could be in complete shadow but typically ears tend to have spaces of highlights kind of on the upper rim and the outer area. I am not sure if you catch me, I don't know anatomy like that so this is how I have to describe it. I also think it's brave as hell you did this whole thing with dip pen because my ass would have fifty splotches everywhere by the time I was done with something like this =)!

Cheers!

I totally agree. The shading in this is a mess, a fix upon a fix upon a fix. Eventually I just had to make myself walk away and stop overworking it. Fortunately the lady depicted seems to have liked it!

Nah, the shading in this isn't a mess. I FUCKING love your shading, and I swear to god if you talk shit about it again I will come to your house and braid your hair. Don't got hair? You're gunna get a braided wig. It's on! Anyways, I totally am a "do I stop now, or do I keep going at this until it's pure black because I can't stop inking all this shit" kind of person. I get it! I've said it once and I'll say it again - if you can capture the essence of whatever you're drawing you got it. and clearly - you got it. So you done good! Don't be mean to yourself! I just figured I would say the thing about the ear because it might help in the future. What are you gunna do? Get in a time machine and fix it? Nah. Just a little thing to tuck away for the future =)!
