Help me stop sucking
17 years ago
General
Alright. I think my little emo moment has passed. Still don't know what to do with this account, but I'm starting to get in the mood to start drawing again.
As such, I come to you for help. I'm tired of my art sucking. It's time I actually try and fix it. So. Does anyone know of some techniques I can use, or tutorials I can read?
Currently, I'm trying to find a way to digitally ink my drawings that won't make everything look pixely and squiggly. Once I figure that out, the coloring will be easy. I'm also trying to develop a more cartoony style, something similar to what they had during the 90s with shows like Goof Troop and Bonkers, but I need to figure out how they made those faces look so well. Finally, I need to come up with a new design for Ziggy. Simply put, it needs a serious change.
If anyone knows how to help me with these problems, it'll be greatly appreciated.

Ignore that I'm far too stubborn to change his physical appearance...Color? Why does it have to look natural? I (and I'm sure you) have seen fur for every color of the rainbow... and thensome!
Well, I also want a color that's a little less generic. That'll come if I come up with a new design.
But if you want to try different things then my recommended method is to take the best parts of other peoples artwork and try and port that into your own style.
Another might be "anatomy".
But I agree. My anatomy is fail. Thankfully, I'm studying that now
