Description
Sigh.I'm basically satisfied with my current art style.
I think i'm getting better at anatomy, my shading and lighting tactics are passable, and I think my style for hair is actually fairly nice
I just wish I could be consistent
If you look at my art from even like...April, my style is completely unrecognizable. You can barely even tell it's the same artist
And I know that's part of improving, but I wish I could get better at this without constantly changing shit.
Look at the lighting on her hair for example. This is the first time I've done that particular style of lighting, and I like it enough. But I know that in a week i'm gonna think it's terrible again
And with a lot of other artists I know, their art has changed a lot over time as well. But there's still certain characteristics that stay with their styles no matter how much they change
Mine doesn't seem to be like that. It keeps shifting and changing, but there's nothing really about it that's recognizable as mine
I change my eye shapes all the time, I can never be consistent with lighting, I always have different tactics for hands...
It's a mess
So even though at the moment I'm satisfied with how my art looks, I still thoroughly hate my style.
Also you should read Shattered Souls because it's something I'm actually a little proud of: www.wattpad.com/story/11449318…

I'm gonna be honest man, I have no idea what you mean when your style is unrecognizable. Every time I see even the thumbnail in my notifs, I know it's you. And then when you say you changed something about how you did a thing, I have to squint and look closely to see exactly what was different. You're pretty consistent from what I know, all things considered.
That said, I hope you're feeling better about this. And I don't say it often, but I love the picture, as always!

I don't think that's really a problem. Honestly, it's better to always experiment with different techniques and expand your art style, rather than trapping yourself with one consistent style with no artistic freedom. Shading and anatomy aren't the only things that define an art style. There are also lineart, colors, shapes, proportions, aesthetics, so much more that make a style your art style. There's a certain charm about yours that screams your name. The vibrant colors, the simple shapes and postures... I don't remember once I'd look at your post (without seeing your username) and ask myself "Who is this artist? Since when did I watch them?" Instead, it's always "Oh! It's Rush."
What's important right now is you're happy with your current art technique. That's good! Because it means you're satisfied with the direction your art is evolving towards. There is nothing wrong about changing your art techniques constantly. Cuz' after all, they're still your work! Keep making your art just the way you always do. Though the next one might look different from your previous work, I believe everyone else would agree that your art would speak for itself. You already have a creative signature that's recognizable and admired by many on this platform. So why do you feel ashamed of it instead of being prideful of how far it has become?

I only have one tiny problem with this, and I know it's hard to draw hands, but it's a simple problem that's easy to fix. The right hand looks a little unnatural. My suggestion is just adjusting the index, middle, and ring finger to make it look more natural. The rest of it is fine, and I don't really see any other mistakes.

You know what's recognizable about your style? Your coloring and lineart. They're always clean and your art colors stand out. Something about them really draws attention, like 'wow that's some n I c e coloring i wanna check that'
As for art style, I'm going through the same thing. Constantly changing little aspects of it. Just do what makes you feel happy, because in the end, it's your art, not anybody else's.
