Drawing Thread

Going back to the roots of this tread, trying to draw a waterfall. How can I improve.

p.s. I may have found the secret to realistic detailing... Don't give a **** and just draw without erasing or holding back.

 

Is anybody gonna give me some feedback on how I can improve

 

looks good, just connect your lines and less sloppy.

 

Can anybody give me tip on how I can better draw the ground so that it distinguishes between the clouds and ground better.

 

I need help with my branches :\

 

This is my work in progress.

How can I improve? I'm not quite satisfied with the river I drew.

 

My suggestion on branches is use the lowest brush setting, kind of sketch it, and then erase the parts you don't want

 

I made some examples for different kind of branches:
1.

2.

3.

You can also combine them:

I hope it helps

 

Can anyone help me w/ stalactites and stalagmites?

 

where the arrows are pointing

 

Very nice.

 

This is a pretty nice start. I know you posted this a week ago so you probably already changed some stuff, but for the river I think the shape looks decent, it raps around the cliff nicely. If you want it to look like it's flowing more then draw lines in the middle of the river, not only on the edges of the river, but don't go overkill with it either. The way you drew you're trees is something I've seen a lot, but it doesn't make sense, leaves should be covering branches in front of the tree. If you saw those tree's from a different angle it would look like this
just try to imagine it 3 dimensionally, but looks good so far

 

If you guys have any forest ideas please post them.

:O GREAT. D

 

Maple COMPLEX ROCKS
Start off with a simple shape and detail until fully detailed. As you can see I start adding cross shades and grass.

 

SIMPLE ROCKS

Start off with a shape and add cracks, maybe a shadow, and some grass.

 

Both of those rocks look like total sh!t

 

it looks like a pile of hashtags lmao
