well there are 2 ways of learning and i do both, i go to the ocean and take pictures to bring home with me for practise, and 2 watch some high end anime flicks because they put a LOT of detail to the enviorment =) and if you cant get your hands on many anime shows than rent the movie spirited away it has some good water scenes in it and it came to canada so it must be wherever you are =)
hope this helps

Heh, at first I thought it was a sleeping dragon...

Well, Mini sort of has the right idea of looking at real ocean, but honestly I don't see a point in going out to an ocean and taking lots of pictures just to come back and do some oekaki. If you go out of your way to do that, enjoy it, maybe do a painting while you're there.
Anime is stylized, so I only recommend looking at that if you really want to have an anime style in your piece. (And if that's the case I highly suggest looking at 5+ anime by different artists to get a more general idea.)

So, what would I do? First off, google image search is your friend. A quick search for 'ocean' or 'ocean waves' will bring up many cool photos and paintings, and probably everything you'd need.

XD when i started sketching the land i was actually trying to draw a crab, so it looks an awful lot like a claw... i couldn't find a decent photo of a crab to base it off of so i changed direction. the problem with me using photos of waves and such is that there is a lot of action going on in a single section of water, even it is relatively calm. i think water is more difficult to create than anything else.
thx for the tips

Please be considerate with nudity.

Sererena (edited Jun 25, 2003)

I know most people probably don't care about seeing nudity and such, but there are some people who will actually go out of their way to avoid seeing it. I liked it here because of the fact that there were warnings on the pictures of 18+, so I was confident I wouldn't have to see nudity, but I still see it. This is the reason I left oekaki central, and I thought it would be different here. So, please, if there is any kind of nudity, even if it's just breasts, please rate it 18+, since most mov...

Only 29 minutes? It feels like this took forever...all that meticulous shading and lineart editing....and still...it looks...like crap.

よい!

marcello (edited Jun 24, 2003)

it's a victim of embossed shading. Perhaps if you made your hilights/shadows less uniform/flat, it'd help give the effect you want.
For example, rather than putting dark on one side, and light on the other side, mix and match (which you sort of begam to do in some places, like the neck, but not enough).

Whoa.... The picture looks as if you already knew the outcome.....looking at a downward angle .... with a look of dissapointment.....as if the picrure itelf is saying "It feels like this took forever...all that meticulous shading and lineart editing....and still...it looks...like crap."
