-

@loveydoe color opens a ton of possibilities though
-
@metaltao I'm glad you like it. I would draw her casting eyes and sporting socks for you, but I haven't gotten the hang of socks at all.
-
@pianissima It is uncannily like a certain John Joseco painting, if you don't mind my saying. Did you use his "Manga Style Luna" as a base?
-
@loveydoe yeah
-
@loveydoe i use jon joseco poses for so much. and I have a similar art style cuz its fast and good looking
-
@pianissima He has a good style. I draw my style from ECMajor, Longinius, and Stradivarius, mostly.
-
@pianissima @loveydoe I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON BUT IT SOUNDS SO MUCH FUN!
-
@loveydoe yeah, i know what you mean. Occasionally ill do my take on one like with the luna one, but then I take it and apply it to other ones like the twilight one i just did
-
@metaltao WHO NEEDS AN IDEA?!?
-
@pianissima Me! I want to learn!
-
@metaltao learn what?
-
@pianissima Who is "John Joseco"?
-
@metaltao he is the creator of molestia and gamer luna. he does tons of art. really good. great to download his stuff and use them as libraries of poses

@metaltao I mean that we are talking about our craft. We love it dearly enough to share our inspirations with each other, as artists.

@loveydoe yup yup. I hate when people are like. 'nop, i dont draw anything similar to anyone ever.' good artists need to get over their ego and say, yeah, im not above borrowing a pose or doing my own take on a specific concept.

@pianissima I found it helpful to sketch ECMajor's work to see how he did things, but I now use constructive anatomy and thumbnailing to design poses. You're right - we have all of history before us to learn how to draw from, including modern artists and old masters.

@loveydoe yeah. I spent like 2 months doing mlp anatomy so I can draw stuff. Its great to adapt styles etc and see what you can add to it. I have a big library on my cpu of i think over 200 now poses that ive drawn out, 75% of them are mine, others are re-sketches of poses i enjoyed. It makes just practicing so much faster not to mention those commissions that you really dont want to do
