I’m looking for a guide on producing and making a cartoon pilot.

Title says it all, it's about a ninja-turtle-like brazilian super hero, and I really need to finish it because it has a time restraint looking good is a necessity, but looking mid would be ok. I'm using references, skills, graphic design skills, Blender, all the jazz, the first one is illustraton 24, the second is an idea of how the cover is going to look like, a background is still yet to be done here, and the third is ilustration 29. I have a lot more and I can show them, if you'd like, I can show everything. but I'll keep up on these 3 first. Thanks beforehand.

Just a random Odie doodle I did for fun.

https://speakerdeck.com/emilioramos/siren Can i get some feedback on how to give a good motivation for the main character for what she's trying to achieve. I am trying to make this scene feel cohesive and feel like it fits in part of a larger story.

Hello everyone with this piece I wanted to try the carricature of it and I wanted to go with a rough approach with it as I wanted try cross hatching with a slightly realistic touch also I was tired of doing the same style everytime I draw so I was fed up with it so I tried this new approach

Big goal this year is to get better at figure drawing and not get discouraged working through the gesture stage... as you can see there is a lot to be discouraged about XD. My goal is to spend an hour with it a day. Typically I burn out after a week. But New Year! New me! ... hopefully.

I drew these characters’ heads with an age range in mind. Tell me what you believe their ages are, and what I could do to construct a more accurate depiction of the age range I aimed for. Age range for boy: 10-15 Age Range for girl: Early 20s Thank you. .

Hi folks! My first short stories just went up on GlobalComix so I thought I’d post a link here! I hope people enjoy! https://globalcomix.com/c/bentbox-shorts/chapters/en/2/1?utm_medium=GCMobileReaderApp&utm_source=share-release&utm_campaign=matthewmanghi&utm_term=101523

I am assigned to draw a poster for this farming app https://techlarapoint.com/farming-simulator-16-mod-apk/. I am out of ideas and looking for some inspiration before I start working. Kindly recommend something.

I’m not really sure which category im supposed to post this but I’m just posting it here since it’s seems like it would be best. I’m still kinda new to the proko thing and haven’t been active as much and I was wondering, which category or where do we post our work that we want general critique on? For this piece, I’m trying to go for a manga/comic like art style and I’m trying to improve on ink wash since it’s the medium I’ll be using.

So I was told to become a good animator you must become a good actor and I guess how do I go about doing acting if that makes any sense? Do I study Shakespeare or something?

Hi, I am a writer and artist looking to restore my motivation by diving into a project that combines both skills. I also hope to create something deeply inspired by my faith. Originally, I wanted to work in the animation industry, but I realized that the stories I want to tell wouldn’t fit into its restrictions. Animation is too regulated to allow for the kinds of narratives I envision. If I want to see my stories brought to life in animation someday, I believe a graphic novel could serve as a strong proof of concept. Here’s my pitch: In the year 2000, with Jews nearly extinct and the last survivors displayed in human zoos resembling shtetl for public amusement, one captive sparks a spiritual revolution that defies a world bereft of faith. Currently, I’m taking the Marvel course on the Proko platform. While I don’t plan to adopt a Marvel art style, the fundamentals I’m learning will transfer well to my project. Here’s what I’m working with: • Equipment: iPad Mini, Wacom Intuos, MacBook Air, comic markers, Staedtler colored pencils, pencils, and oil pastels. • Favorite mediums: Oil pastels and Copic markers (though Copics are expensive, and oil pastels are unconventional for comics). • Time constraints: As a full-time college student, I can’t color everything. I’m thinking about a style where most of the world is black and white except for the Jewish characters, with more color integrated as the story progresses. For publishing, I’m unsure about the best platform. Webtoon is too NSFW for a young adult or kids’ series, and I want to make it accessible to more religious Jewish communities, whose parents often limit screen time. While I’d like to reach a non-Jewish audience, I know my core readers will likely be Jewish. I need a way to distribute the graphic novel that’s both affordable and accessible. Some people I’ve shown my ideas to really like them. What’s the first step to getting started? How should I proceed from here? I’ve also uploaded some sketches and drawings to show my art style. I’d love to hear your thoughts on which style you think works best for my project. Don’t worry about fundamentals—just focus on the artistic style, as some of the pieces are older, like the black-and-white and digital animal portraits.

I've done a few satirical Batman comics with a buddy of mine. We have come up with a character that's not Batman, but close enough to a Mad Magazine take on the character so that the jokes work. Here are a couple of sketches of the character, called the Night Guard.

I see arcane as high quality animation and would like to make something similar to it.

Hey guys So I have started to colour this piece and thought this would be a good time to ask for any feedback you may have.

I got myself a tablet and procreate dreams. So I was wondering how to organize my project to get the best results.

These quick sketches were done in under 6 minutes each. They were drawn with a mechanical pencil and rollerball pen on printer paper

Hello everyone what is up Can y'all give ya feedback And happy birthday rap god eminem

In order to learn drawing comics and develop a style 2 years ago I decided to cooperate with a screenwriter on a full graphic novel (100 pages). 3/4 is done and I see some progress - lines are more confident and i simplify face expressions more, also it begins to feel like fun to draw (at the beginning it was nothing but struggle). I cannot show this work, however here are samples of pages from some short personal comics (finished while working on a main project). My goal is to draw in a kind of minimalistic style. Began with realism (attached black and white pages) and I was inspired by Magnus (he drew for Max Bunker) The colored work shows the direction I try to go into. In my opinion it is still not enough stylized yet, sometimes a bit cartoony, but in other pages to much real. I like John Romita and his thick lines, and he was one of my inspirations for drawing these. I don't know if this way of progressing by just drawing is enough, maybe i should need to do some fundamentals course again, for example to break characters into primitives. Really don't know right know. Any advice would be helpful :) Here is another post with my sketches to show my life drawing https://www.proko.com/community/topics/sketching-critique

I created this supe for my brother. Please feedback!! ;)

Made in A5 with pencil, and 0.2 & 0.8 markers. The image cuality is worse than the original.

Hello everyone the following i tried to make a carricature of Tupac shakur and I am new to making carricature and I look to get feedback on the following also R.i.p tupac *Likeness *Eyes

It's been a while since I've done on-demand comics, but recently I had a few comics printed of my rough draft story. I like to letter my roughs so that I can get a good idea if the story of is working or not. It's easier to make changes at this stage when I've only spent an hour or two on a page. At this stage, I'm looking to see how it fits together, make edits, and see what I want to change before the polished draft. I'm not associated with them in any way, but I have to say that the service at Ka-blam is pretty great. There are no minimums, and it was pretty easy to follow the templates and instructions to get them the files. I'm not sure what other companies are out there, but on-demand is a good way to get your book into print.

it would be good as a cover for the new Wolverine comics, what do you think @Ryan Benjamin ? :') i'm joking but, what do you think?

Dear Community, I recently bought a wacom and I'm using affinity photo as drawing software. I am new to digital drawing so I struggle with a few things, for example the document-type I am going to use for a drawing. When I open a new document, I can choose some presettings for the layout (like HD+, FHD and QFHD). I can create my own settings as well. Which Layout do you usually use to create a comic page? I tried to draw a page with several panels, but when I zoom in one section to define some shapes and to create detail (like around the eyes), the resolution becomes a little bit grainy which makes it difficult for me to create some detail even though I used my HD+ layout (well I zoom in pretty far in the drawing to get tiny details. When I zoom out it looks fine, but it's still anoying while drawing). Do you have any recommendation on how to set the layout of the document? Thanks and greeting :) Moonless_Sky

I am learning to animate and what to use studio Ghibli as inspiration. So my question how do I paint and color int my drawing to look more like studio Ghibli.

I'm a big fan of dc comics and hope to replicate bruce timm style.

Hello everyone in the following I want to depict how overthinking destroys us and when our mind takes over us we ruin our life.

I’m hoping to create traditional looking animations like the following: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=q3gI-E_vqVA&pp=ygUUb3V0bGF3IHN0YXIgb3BlbmluZyA%3D https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rrmUk2YUm14&pp=ygUaYmF0bWFuIHRoZSBhbmltYXRlZCBzZXJpZXM%3D https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QxkMzn4et2U&pp=ygUaZ2hvc3QgaW4gdGhlIHNoZWxsIG9wZW5pbmc%3D https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Xo1LB0g3QrE&pp=ygUQc3VwZXJtYW4gb3BlbmluZw%3D%3D

I am currently teaching myself animation with the animators's survival kit book. hoping to create cartoon one day. so any advice?

So I've been drawing for years and here are some more recent works. I also tried out the free courses from the Marvel's the Art of Storytelling just figured I'd share

Hello! I am making a comic for print and just finished an action sequence page but wasn’t satisfied with the first attempt, because I wasn’t sure if the panels were dynamic or varied enough. Please let me know what you think or if you have any feedback on the better looking draft.

If anyone can give me some critiques on my drawings let know I like to improve my cartooning skills.

I saw him and knew i needed to paint him. Thoughts? What could I improve in my caricature art?

Hi All!  I've been developing a storyline in my head for a couple of years now... It doesn't seem to end, or leave me alone for that matter, so I better start scratching it onto paper! I've had the dream of drawing comics for a while now. I've used many online sources and books trying to gather information about the process and such, as well as about "how to draw" in itself. So here goes. These are the first three pages, done by hand. As I'm learning by doing, the idea is to do from start to finish a couple of pages at a time. This way I get to iterate the whole process several times and take pauses to analyse my way of working and what needs to be learned still. This also probably makes the first and last pages look completely different, but as this is merely for my own learning (and pleasure), that's alright. Things I already know I need to improve:  - more dynamic angles -> more thumbnailing - less messy mid tones - the second panel of the third page annoys me: it's the only panel where something actually happens, so why did I draw it so small?? :) - the penmanship sucks. I've yet to decide, whether to rehearse writing by hand or add the texts digitally later on. All in all, I'm proud I've come this far. I'm not going to redraw these pages right now, but move on. Any comments, critique and observations on what to improve in general (or regarding some particular panel / detail / etc) are very welcome. The photos are of poor quality, sorry about that.

Hi there, I did this drawing following along with Frank Cho. The video finished before it got to the rendering phase, so I kind of made it up from imagination. Just wondering if anyone who knows comic rendering, could point out my mistakes, please? Would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone! A while back, as part of an animation fundamentals course, I had to do a simple walk cycle from the side (first attached image sequence; design of the character is referenced from the example of the teacher). The result was an exaggerated walk with a really wide stride (which is in line with the requirements of that particular exercise). Overall, I was happy with the result except for the arms. With the arms I was going for a more relaxed feel but they ended up being way to stiff. With that in mind I had another go at it (this time using the character design from The Animator's Survival Kit). I’m much happier with this result (second and third image sequences). It looks a bit silly but for a cartoon character I think it fits quite nicely. Still, I am looking for ideas on how on improve it or any mistakes that my inexperienced eyes missed. So, if anyone has any critique to offer I would highly appreciate it. Thank you! (The first and second image sequences are on 4s without inbetweens. The third image sequence has inbetweens a well.)

Here is my attempt. I can see some flaws myself like bad line art and shitty hatching and anatomy so honestly i think it went horrible. Im looking for more criticism to see what can i do exactly to make it better or other suggestions

It's a comic and those 4 characters you see in the drawing are those 4 people which I am referring to in the dialogue and In my country where I live it's a common idiom that what will those 4 people think of you which basically means what will other people think of you if you follow your heart. Those 4 people I hate them

Right now I teaching myself how to animate and want to do some fight scenes as practice. any advice or tips?

Well I want to post a comic on Webtoon site. My question how do I set up my comic and make money on it?

I've watched some YouTube videos on drawing folds, but I feel like I'm copying without understanding the folds themselves. To be fair, I started doing folds two days ago, so maybe I'll naturally understand over time, but I hope hearing feedback will make it click that much faster. As I got all my reference from Pinterest, I unfortunately lost one picture by forgetting to save it. I also noticed that I chose poor references for my first two sketches (the jeans ones), and tried to pick better pictures that have clear folds from then on. If you have any thoughts, I'd like to hear them. Thanks!

I recently posted my artwork on social media and other communities but received only a few likes. I recognize there's room for improvement. Can you provide feedback on enhancing the quality and increasing engagement with my artwork?

Hi everyone, I did this piece a few months back. To me, it looks ok, but I'm sure there are problems with it that I'm not seeing. Any feedback would be really appreciated. Cheers

Can you explain the weakness of this work? and what advice should i do?

Can you explain the weakness of this work? and what advice should i do?

I made this following comic to express myself as I felt bad when my bestfriend refused to come on my birthday as a celebs birthday is more important for her

Hi everyone. I have had a go at inking digitally over a John Romita JR page, from the Assignment download folder. I have tried to capture the energy from his pencils. Not sure I have, so any feedback would be helpful. Cheers :)

Hi everyone, first time poster here. So I started to draw comic style line arts to illustrate my own novel. The attached image is my first attempt at line art illustration based on the story. I have experience doing character designs, but never tried something like this before. Let me know if you have any feedback or opinions, or improvement suggestions for my next drawings. Note that while I usually have references, for this drawing I didn't use any reference. Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone, i am new here and joined because currently planning to watch proko fundamentals videos for getting better at drawing. I started this year and made some works, drawing in ballpoint and some pixelarts: https://www.deviantart.com/lordbakdunk I am intersted in joining some discord groups for meetING new people who share the same interests and showing each others art.

I'm really enjoying this course! Took a while, but got the pencils done just in time. I feel like I'm back in school and leaving my homework till the last minute, lol. Any constructive feedback very welcomed. Looking forward to the inking process. Cheers

Hello everyone, This is a piece that I'm currently working on of Johnny from the fighting game, Guilty Gear Strive, performing one of his super moves (reference attached). I've more or less completed the basic layout and wanted to get some fresh pairs of eyes on it before I move on to the next stage. I'm open to any thoughts or suggestions you might have. I drew the split card in the foreground as a vector, so it can be moved around/flipped/rotated no problem. The smoke and spark effects are very loose placements, they will be the last things I finalize after everything else is inked and coloured. But please feel free to share any ideas for their paths/shapes/placements, especially for things like the sparks in the foreground. The idea is that everything will be rendered/lit more or less like the reference, with objects in the foreground possibly being out of focus. Thank you for checking this out, I look forward to sharing the completed piece in the future!

Fixed last page piece. Boba's head in one panel was a little bit off and one of the mercenary's arm was a bit smaller for me in the last panel. Now fixed.

These were posted to the assignments page before deadline Thoughts?

The assigned was to pencil an Spider-Man & Black Panther story covering and introduction, conflict and resolution story arch. If was great fun as it was just one image but lots that needed to link together. I took a bit of liberty had depicted Shuri as Black Panther

Here are my boards for the three scenes. I made one panel adjustment to my one of them.

Here is my assignment. Made an adjustment on the 4th board.

Here is my assignment for the penciling part of the coarse

Here are my boards for the pencil assignment. I am aware there were only three scenes: intro, action, and resolution but I actually wrote the script assignment and my boards still represent the three scenes shown in 7 boards. Hope they are readable. Enjoy.

I ask cause I want create some studio ghibi style animation. Using my own drawings but can be hard doing by yourself. Do I thought of using ai to help with the workflow.

Hey! I'm a 16 year old aspiring comic artist, I would appreciate any critique or advice, what can I Improve? and how close do you guys think I am? from the script of Lucifer(2000) #4

Using what I learned, these will be submitted soon. I took a few tips from David Finch's course and of course I grew up in the era of Jim Lee, Marc Silvestri, Mark Teixeira, Tim Bradstreet and Todd. So my art bends towards that era. Hope you enjoy them.

Hey I'm new here I'm trying to learn how to draw and sketch my art work I'm a little bit good but I want to improve it

When I’m coming up with my cartoons, I usually find it easier to envision the drawing part, but I tend to have a harder time when attempting to create texts (for example, funny punch lines, witty captions etc.) And I’ve been finding it helpful to interact with ChatGPT for that. It doesn’t give me anything close to a great final text ready to be used, but it’s helping me get "unstuck" with more ease. Have you guys ever tried any AI tool for brainstorming, developing a rough idea or something like that? If so, what do you think of the experience?

My attempt at the pencilling assignment. We had to take three scenes from a story beginning middle and end. Any advice would be appreciated.

I’m working on some practice pages. Here’s the first one. Written/illustrated/lettered by me.

Hello, 2 months ago I uploaded a touhou fancomic here to get some critism. After that I tried to apply what both @Liandro and @jesper axelsson suggest and make the comic more clear. I did several value and color study alla Norman Rockwell (here they are https://docs.google.com/document/d/1j9HC_LP4HLk-0s0LIW_xCnzpZlyBttcBaacOSzUhlOk/edit and https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IkYKK62pNdgvgft5yxZKxmJeqcxUtQrxt-HKbHoMuMI/edit) before doing the comic. I really don't remember who it was I referencing, I think I was looking at this BlogSpot by James Gurney on how Cubist movement effect comic and the first image made me want to try my hand on it (http://gurneyjourney.blogspot.com/2018/05/cubist-nightmares-in-comics.html) And I think I was looking at some Chainsaw man and Bernie Fuchs painting but I really can't remember (I think I also reference some Koishi Komeji's Heart Throbbing adventure for Koishi's design, Koishi is the girl that got kick in the crotch, but that's all). Most of the time I feel I was looking at images of Marissa, Koishi, Satori, Rin, Utsuho and Komachi than any one specific artist. I was just painting what I wanted to paint and that was it. So I don't have much reference here (sorry >_<) I guess like my previous post, I would just like to know if there's any panel/page that can be improve, or if anything jump up as "wrong" (Something even relating to story/character would be good) Anyway thanks as always for the feedback :D (Also here's a google docs if anyone want to read it more fluidly https://docs.google.com/document/d/11dnHuY8YbFtU1wFhqSVG6PgMwgwsITM6w6xdWogfAZI/edit

Looking for a critique on this

I wanted to show these boards because I got a kick out of David Finch's class. It motivated me into getting back into drawing comic boards once again. My passion and love for this industry has never left me. Thank you David for making this fun again.
