>>7171312fucking retard. just put on a black jumpsuit, set up your easel outside of your neighbors' bedroom window, and draw then while they have sex.
>>7171315my neighbour isn't married but fucks an onahole every night. Will that be the same?
>>7171326the same, no, but one figure is better than none
>>7170774it just gives structure to the lessons for information that has mostly been debunked as pseudo-science. despite that the exercises do work even if the science is shoottyart can be a science but its also something you have to have faith in if you dont think something is important you won't learn it
>>7171298It's absoulutely worth it OP. Figure drawing distills just about every art fundamental in to a single exercise and you can apply the skills you learn into creative art immediately.

>>7171353Blackedception
>>7170995>normalfags DO NOT pay for art>They want it free to be able to see on their phones for 5 seconds and move onBut it is exactly the same with NSFW.The majority of the online audience is there only to get free shit, and you are playing the lottery to get found by a minority in a niche who is willing to pay for their own specific fetishes, when the big majority is a young audience, followed by porn addicts who will just take anything and give you likes and validation so you keep feeding them more, followed by lots of grifters i.e. other "content creators/nsfw artists" who just play the hugbox game to farm numbers, followed by scrapers who will take your coom to sell merch, followed by a minority of "game developers" and an even bigger minority of commissioners.Commissioners who commission nsfw artists are always the same people maybe commissioning a few big accounts to draw their OCs, so others will draw their OCs for free to ride that clout/trend.It's akin to a marketing strategy:>"Sure, i might have spent xyz amount for a comm of my OC, but if the artists share it and it starts to go viral, then other artists pick it up and draw me free shit. If it don't work, i still didn't waste money because i still got something out of it"You very rarely see someone commissioning an artist multiple times for the same character in a short time span; wouldn't you want to have more scenarios and art of "your OC"? Go lurk OC/draw threads on other boards to get an idea.In the end, commissioners just have superficial fetishes and they try to get people infected with it, like a fetishist stereotypically does to ultimately get more content of their fetish.If i liked xyz, i would comm here and there so it would create a chain reaction of other starving artists trying to get in on the trend and make me free xyz shit. If i can think of this, having no interest in getting free xyz, do you think someone who is obsessed with a fetish won't do that?

>>7169150Pretty good, anon. You have a sense for pacing. I also liked the little details such as the creases the door rails made in the character's feet and the reflection of the brake lights in his eyesThe fact that the highway is a one way, people only leaving from the stand point of the viewer, none approaching. What does that mean to you?
I liked it, you do pretty good job of establishing a mood and the framing of the scenes really help
Pretty good shit anon, I have nothing bad to say about it. Let's spread some positivity today, aye?
>>7171084I just like the way brake lights glow at night. Growing up next to a highway, u see it a lot and it's a strange feeling. Everyone headed in the same direction.
>>7170559thx
You don’t get followers or likes not because of the algorithm or bots, it’s because your lack of skill and shit taste.
>post on instagram>4 likes>post on reddit during an active time of day>1k+ upvotesIf people see my work, they like it. People don't see my work on instagram.
>>7171300>another social points threadyou guys are pathetic.
>>7171305Oh because insta gutted photosEngagement unless you buy ads for it and need to post reel. Just bitch about having no followers or beg for some and you’ll gain 10k in 2 weeks as long you made the post in reels.

Is there an art course or book that shows how to shade like the GOATS but in digital? When I use fountain pens and map pens on paper, it's not hard. When I try to do it in digital I don't know what the fuck to do to get same results. In fact, mangaka who do digital art have dogshit shading.
>>7170069>just like toriyamaCounterpoint
>>7170069>toriyama is shit at storytelling...in the opposite dimension.
>>7167621this entire thread is retarded. its called rendering not shading. older mangaka used ink and zippatone/toner packs for everything. modern shitters use clip studio and blender and similar programs for it. some do mix of trad and digital. for soem artists theyll render with copic for grey tones or if doing color pages. others bust out gouache or water color. the issue with modern digital versions is they arent even inking the hatching or other lines. its all with digital brushes so you get the same look and generic linework with no variations. across so many no talent 3d tracers, it blends together and gives the modern shit look to all manga. the lack of imperfections in the linework and hatching is the major imperfection of modern manga. it also leads to the faux amateur look gege and chainsaw guy do. they are blatant 3d models and objects for everything but the chicken scratch lines and shit looking art let people forgive it somehow. like they believe its just bad artist and not deliberate shitter.

Beg here, why have I not seen anybody on /ic/ ever mention Richard Smitheman b4? I've tried a bunch of different approaches to get my figure drawing to be competent but his method was by far the most informative to capture both gesture + anatomy.I do think you have to learn some of the fundamentals else where but once I felt ready for figures, his livestreams did wonders
I should do more gestures/ short figuresSeeing some really nice figures here in pencil, am I punishing myself with pen at the cost of being more dynamic?Maybe I just need to get bigger balls. >>7170041thankyou, I like how you iterate most of them, looks pretty effective
1m to 15m. I'm being able to do so much with the time that I think my next step is thinking of finding the most attractive sections of figures and doing more work in them, proportions are sliightly off but shouldn't be too hard to correct
>>7168005doodlin' while watching the 5th element, tough to draw on the couch.

Can someone explain how people complain about calarts then go around enjoying something like pic related? Both styles are kinda just ugly copy n past slop to me
>>7170203I still find it retarded how genshin has 8 characters with a loli body type, but no male equivalent
>>7170357This man understands.
>>7170811the mc and their boyfriend both have aids. I am not even joking
>>7170203the people complaining about calarts are not the same people who play genshit. The retards that enjoy this nuweeb shit are the other side of the coin of calartsfags. Once again, both sides are retarded and I'm right.

>>7168743I didn't catch the little girl on the path the first time I looked at it, and Im jealous of your contrast control. It is both technically good, and fun to look at as well.
