This is very beautiful
Omg, he looks like a Canadian figure skater Nicolas Nadeau
Wow, yours looks really good @Sirell! Love the hair; I can never quite get that right.
Neither realism nor painting is my expertise, but I try sometimes I am way better at realistic animals than realistic humanoids, to be honest, but for better or worse here are some of my OCs from various projects.
I definitely gave up on that first one halfway through. The rest actually had some effort put in ahaha.
I love drawing in a semi-realistic and have been improving on it. My comic is in that styleSome example artworks:
I’ve found that this style suits me. I’m trying to experiment with a more animated style and it’s so challenging
I’m just creeping on this thread to say that you’re all amazing artists! I can draw semi realistic animals, but my default style is anime/manga so semi realistic humans just seems like freaking magic to me
That looks great !! I always find lips (especially for guys) to be the hardest (besides noses) in realism/semi-realism so I haven't gotten to draw my male ocs yet in that style ;
(^ this one is the oldest among the samples gfd)
This is Azarias, a young hunter with huge expectations.
Funnily enough, I did draw Cate from RotH in a more realistic style a while ago
Okay, so my style already goes kinda towards semi-realism... still, a few attempts at photorealism were made
My comic is already kind of semi-realistic, but uhh... Here you go
From Whispers of the Past
I did some in the past. Now I don't have time for non-comic art lately. here are some:
not sure, but i think it fits...
My poor Tirau has been a victim of me experimenting with realism several times 'xD (though I haven't tortured him with it for a while - all these pics come from my 2015 and older folder ;p I should probably do some experimenting with realism again...)
My characters are anthro dogs so realism wouldn’t work without them diving head first into the uncanny valley haha.
I did Percy for one of my novel covers and have a comparison.
And Queen Aurua who's only appeared unnamed once or twice so far.
This is an amazing thread!
Wow!!! All of you guys' works are so amazing!! Thank you for showing them!
What's your over-achieveing comic link?
Yeah I've tried to do some realistic style drawings, but they're hard I don't have any that I feel are worthy of posting cause most are rough lmao. I like yours a lot though! ^^
