Absolutely!

I'm the Minnafag by the way, so if you haven't started the confession one yet, I wouldn't mind at all if you drop it completely.

>>11476
You are your own worst enemy as they say. No one but you are the one to feel your art needs improving when everyone is content enough with it.
It's pretty much autism what you're describing there and as someone with two devout artfags as friends and myself as a former one I can relate to you. But you do what you feel is best.
Saying about levels is a bit silly when you're to form your own style that will become your very own and something you feel content with. Em doesn't strike as someone who will change drastically his style at this point, is he at Fumi's level? No and yes, he has distinct style to his that is very nice and Fumi has unique to his that fits him the best. Both are great and different and will be. Yours is great.
That's just some of my thoughts.

>>11491
Exactly! Drawfriend has his own style as well, and I gotta say it's one of my favorites.

>>11168
>>11490
It's done.
Had fun in the stream today as well. Looking forward to the rest!

>>11557
Absolutely amazing, anon!

I love the different stages, the first one still is the best in my opinion.

Scandalous!

Great work drawfriend!

>>11557
Love it. Great work! Minna looks cute.

>>11557
That's veri naisu.

And that's it. Starting now I'm going on hiatus to practice and get better.
Like I said, I'll still be here, and I'll still most likely be drawing witches every now and again, but starting now I'm going to try and place all my focus on improving. Hopefully at some point I'll find a good balance of studying and drawing weeb stuff.
Wish me luck, Helmanons.

>>11696
Goddamn drawfriend very nice.
My friend is going to be salty since he wanted heidi lewds but didnt want to be the first to request them

Enjoy your break! Come back soon!

>>11696
That's leeewd, but nice as always!
I'm going to be sad during your hiatus here. You're good already, but I guess the whole improving thing is knocking the back of your head. I really oughta pick up the pen again and learn to draw properly instead of painting but instead I started my Nihon studies week ago..
But yes, I'll wish the best of luck to you in your studies and improving.

>>11696
Love it. Great work! Good luck on your hiatus with practicing your art. I wish you the best of luck.

How to draw Eila.
Kinakomoti style.

Sometimes I wonder how our former resident drawfag does these days and where he might be, I really miss that feller a lot and his cute art.
Got this little Miyafuji drawn for my birthday today so I thought sharing it here.

>>14363
Happy belated birthday mate, that's a cute Yoshika.
I'm still here, not so much a drawfag recently but still very much a resident of little ol' Helma. Hard to believe it's been over two friggin' years since I last delivered in this thread.
Unfortunately I haven't drawn for a long while. Had life come up and bite me in the ass and I've been in a funk the past year. Slowly getting out of it though and I should be back soon once I get my shit together.
Can't say I made good on my promise to get better though, so don't expect much of an improvement.

>>14365
Thanks mang.
Am I glad to hear you're still around and kicking though even if not drawing, and yeah it's like couple of years have flown by despite still thinking it was like yesterday when you last posted.
As much I'm happy to hear someone's getting back on rails even if slowly, to me each good step feels like negated by a bigger one always lately.
Nah, like plenty of times said in the past your style was fine as it were even if you like to be self-critical about it which is fine for improving over time.
The only thing I'm expecting is a drawing of any kind from you at some point.

I'm going to keep any fanfare and pomp to a minimum. Bring me your requests, fellow Helmanons. I'm back.

>>14444
I would love to see Marian as a sexy cowgirl
Something like this

>>14444
Very cute Nipa! Welcome back.

>>14444
I would love to see Sadako in a lewd kunoichi outfit kind of like pic related.

>>14444
Okaerinasai senpai. And with a cute Nipa no less. Thank you for your continued efforts.
You're already bombarded, but that's for a good reason. I'll just ask seeing summer's coming and all something with Miyafuji in her frilly bikini look.
And for reference there was this fanart made by Couch eons ago >>11206 where Lynne got a leg cramp. I like the idea of somewhat dynamic compositions always so maybe Miyafuji trying to split a watermelon with blindfold or doing warm-up stretching.

>>14444
Welcome back. My birthday is coming up really soon, so I'd love to see Sanya wrapped up in ribbons. It's up to you if want to do clothed or clotheless, I'd like it either way.

So glad to have you back!
I'll try to hold back my requests for a while, I'm sure you must be very busy with what there is now.

>>14450
Here's a WIP to prove I'm still around. Hopefully I didn't miss your b-day by too much, I'll try and have it finished soon!
I'm going a little out of order on these requests, but I'll make sure to get them all delivered.

>>14459

I would love a Minna dressed in a baby doll, sitting on a simple bed, implying it belongs to an enlisted soldier.
She could be saying something along the lines of "I've been waiting~".

Also, if you find the time, why not make it a a two frame comic strip with both of them being in her office, the soldier as her scribe and Minna saying she'll go to bed, as he is still finishing work on some papers.

Please, take all the time you need for this! I appreciate how much effort and time you put in for us.
I would be super happy if you decided to draw my request and would understand if something prevents you from doing so.

>>14445
Here's another WIP. I feel like something's off with her face... maybe I'll figure it out tomorrow. If there's anything you want changed, let me know.

>>14461
Don't worry, nothing really prevents me from drawing, I'm just agonizingly slow.

>>14462
The current face simply lacks the oomph to look like Shirley's, is how I'd put it at least.
As in it seems a bit too generic, or something, still nothing too bad.

>>14462
The only thing I can think of with her face is that its a little too small compared to the rest of her, like how her hair seems to go too far off to the side, and it looks not tall enough to fit with her hair and body (like her cheek is really long and flat), but maybe that’s just me
Other than that, I love it, I dont think you need to change anything else
I’m really looking forward to it

>>14450
Been sitting on these for a couple or so weeks, haven't made any more progress. Sorry guys.
Attempts at colouring really sap my motivation.

>>14445

>>14520
we need more of this

>>14521
Need more of all of this.

>>14521
Hey that looks great! Thank you!

>>14520
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing your work.

Drawfag-san ganbattene.
Summer's kinda over soon though..

>>14615
If summer's almost over then why's it still so bloody hot? Thank god for AC.

>>14449
Here's a WIP. I think I sort of combined both your suggestions into one without realizing. Not sure if stretching before splitting a watermelon is being overcautious or not.

How about witches trying the latest meme challenge (straw with lidded cup) to varying degrees of success?

>>14617
Calling this one done unless there is anything major I missed.

>>14698
that's some really nice tummy

>>14698
AAaaaaaaa.. Truly this is Miyafuji's best swimsuit besides her default one and it suits her lovely figure on point and proper. The frills with the color layout and swimsuit design is so good and just in time for the last few weeks of summer.
I love it so much, you did amazing! I think this is your first colored delivery aside Nipa image too, your coloring is on point as well with this one at least.
Now hopefully you don't mind me being nitpicky if I'd were to, in which the stretch is a tad bit lazy one coming from her and the dynamic pose is lacking as such, although I guess that's on me by not saying it with the WIP but I didn't want to really look at it since I prefer seeing finalized art myself. Sorry about that.
As for missing something, I suppose if you feel like it, Lucchini could have her own unique bikini she got with Miyafuji that same year during the event instead of her default one.

>>14698
CUUUUUUTE

>>14703
Yeah, sorry about the pose not being so dynamic. Usually I try to aim for dynamism but nothing seemed to click this time.
Lucchini's swimsuit should be an easy fix, though. Should have figured she'd have a unique design as well.

>>14698
>>14703
Had to improvise on her top piece as you can't really see it in the official art, but here you go!

>>14709
It's perfect! I think it's pretty much how anyone would imagine it to be from the front. These two sure got to be frilly fuwa together, adding Lucchini was a nice idea for sure.
Really thanks for the art, now you can get to focus on the rest.~

>>14709
EXTRA CUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE

Amazing drawfriend, top notch art and very cute witches.

Hey drawfriend there's a uicchi collab going on now and they'll take gaijin art

https://twitter.com/kosaber__13/status/1159838375651627008?s=19
Link if you're interested

>>14728
That's pretty neat. Part of me is interested but another part is overly worried of being in a collab with others and having me cock it up somehow.
Is there a link to their previous Connect Witches release? I'm not finding it through my usual channels.
