I often draw A LOT of shit, usually to practice one particular pose, to remember how certain things are like, to rest new shading and Lineart techniques, coloring, or to do something wacky to experiment and see if it goes somewhere, but most (if not all) of those drawings disappear quickly, so instead of deleting them I'll be posting these here since it's a waste to let them rot away.

Example:

Pictured: just a collection of skulls as to test my memory skills.

Feel free to post yours if you feel like it (WIPs not allowed)
 
Looks like I'll have to relearn skeletal anatomy, because some parts have no logic
At least they look funny

Pro tip. Don't. The lack of logic is called personal design. Look at the long Halloween jonkler. Crazy and memorable design, yet doesn't really follow anatomical standards.
 
how do you draw this picture btw because like if i were to draw a picture on paper and then post a picture of it it would clearly look like if it were drawn by someone how do you like draw on the computer
 
They look nice, but try to use perspective a bit more (horizon lines, simplified shapes, etc).
Overall, it's an 7.76/10 from me

Let me see if I understood that
I draw those skulls using this pencil named g-pen, with a 2px size and no changes in transparency.
I did not use a sketch layer, is just one single layer, and I hardly used the eraser
Also, I use a phone for drawings now, which makes the lines more consistent compared to the more rough and simplistic style I had on PC
I usually start from the eyes (as it should) then make simpler outlines to create a boundary, later I add more lines to generate details, then I finish with even more lines, closely put together, and without letting go of the pencil, per area.
Letting go and spamming linework will result in the whole thing keeping a more strong black color, but without doing that and shading in one go, some spaces are left out that will not be filled until you start another round of shading on that same layer. That's the secret to the funny texture some of the things I draw have

This is an old abandoned 'son I did nearly a year ago, it had to finish some parts, and I also added a bunch of stuff like the visible capillaries on most of its body, and a bit of an extra thick outline, and some of my basic shading; all in all a failure, as of now I can't draw popped veins the way I want.

Fucking image size limit shitstone
1900x1080 is the maximum before breaking attachments? Niggerhell system

You could draw the entirety of lord of the rings with how you draw soyjaks in that fantasy style

i was talking about digital art not how it was made since until now i found the concept absolutely alien and unknown to me
