How do i learn to draw in a western style?Everyobe makes fun of me for my interest in japanese popculture, i only draw in the anime styles and i think western art is fucking disgusting and i fucking hate it and i hate western music.So how do i find a western style thats not fucking ugly to draw in that isn’t disgusting?
>>7171733Im indigenous australian so im not actually western
>>7171738Then make abbo art
>>7171741no i have to be trained in it and i dont like it and it doesnt have facial expressions
>>7171742Personalize it, be a pioneer
>>7171745im not allowed to do that
Last one: >>7121414A bad sharpener will slow you down and ruin your pencils.A good sharpener is like a fresh breath of air, such as pic.
is the silver staedtler holder a good choice? Been sketching less in colored pencil and more on bristol with 2H pencils and thought I should try a lead holder.
>>7170528Not that much of an issue
>>7170865thanks
>>7171669went with faber castell because i like their graphite and colored pencils a lot already, so how hard can they fuck up a clutch pencil.
>>7171756Good choice, the Staedtler silver is absolutely garbage, the blue leadholder is good though.
You don’t get followers or likes not because of the algorithm or bots, it’s because your lack of skill and shit taste.
My work does suck ass but judging by the view counts I'd say the algorithm is also fucking with me a bit.
>>7171639This
Have you tried making something besides cakes?
>>7171300>lack of skillIf this was true there'd be a more linear distribution of viewercount as one went from pre-/beg/ to something around /int/. But that's not the case. We have all seen completely shite art that also has no cute/funny redeeming value and yet it gets more views than (you).
>>7171723retard didn't read the lack of taste part.
Its a hard truth to swallow, but its the truth nonetheless

>when a permabeg thinks he knows what he's talking aboutso fucking funny to see
>>7170340Got a question about how objects rotate in perspective drawing. Pic related.Two of the vanishing points are below the canvas. Red arrows in pic point to them. The red circled prism is what I am trying to draw the skateboard to look like, but some of the planes are pointing away from the top vanishing point. The prism with the A, B, and C labels at the center of the canvas is where the skateboard should be. Do I have to make every line in 3-point perspective drawing align towards a vanishing point? If so, how do I achieve this downward rotated angle?I feel like I'm doing a math problem at this point.

>>7169627>>7169924Sure mines this one here >>7156958 though it's an older thing I did. Still been working on his general clothes though here's a newer sketch I did keeping things still somewhat the same. I was thinking of having his legs being able to fuse and detach since I was trying ways he'd use plant abilities.

>>7171571Thank you, fren. This makes me happy.
>There is one thing not to do, and that is simply to drift along with the daily routine, making no extra effort. You will soon find yourself middle-aged, having done nothing more than routine jobs, and being little farther along than you were years ago. The extra effort is the difference between the great mass of mediocre artists and the comparatively small group of very good ones.>And in Art, study can never stop. You will find sketches galore in the studio of the good man, with the paint quite fresh. The mediocre artist's sketches are old and dusty.>I have seen so many middle-aged artists still hoping, whose samples are frayed at the edges, and thumb-marked with time. Sometimes it has been a matter of years since they sat down and actually did something to give their hopes any promise. They are plodding their lives away at something they hate, and doing nothing about it. These are the men who never seem to have had a chance.

>>7171060Very nice gestures anon.Can you elaborate on redblob anon's gesture method? I lost that post but i recall it being something like copy one thing in 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 4 min and 5 min gestures. I kinda got lazy wanted to cut off some fat so only did 1, 2 and 4 min gesture copy and a perfect(lol) copy last.Also why do you like memory drawing better? I'll obviously try them both out to see which one works better for me but i would like to hear your insight as well.
>>7171011Gawain's WordNice adding the reflected lights to the helmet>>7171112Looks fine>>7171236You can switch between that and spheres or still life>>7171355Gotta do a ton of these>>7171662SoulI will assert that form is number 1. Can I not more easily manipulate the proportions of something if I know the form? But can you say the reverse if your proportions are “right,” but if you do not have the form down, or otherwise lack sufficient mental-3D-modeling ability? Everybody has to concede (even the crabs) that while my drawings may have incorrect proportions, they are almost never flat or appear symbolic (not even my eyes, which I try to carve into the head as elliptical curves no matter what, even if their shape is completely wrong)>>7171542Comment too long.

Hey at least give me a chance, I screwed around with the Unreal source code and C++ for a year straight before I started drawing, so I guess my mind is organized in a certain extremely-left-side-of-the-brain type of way, I mean you’re replying to somebody who can be fucked / has enough free time to reply to every single post in the thread, so it would follow that if somebody who *does* actually draw has something to say or recommend, I’m likely to also reply with what I have attempted personally to try to get better at drawing and also my own other various thoughts in response to what was said (in relation to my own experience through drawing, which is very little).I suppose what other people find very tiresome or irritating, I would personally find sincere and genuine - I perceive longer replies as taking more time to write, and thus, they are (at least in my perception) a more amicable and sociable way of talking to people on here than shorter ones (well I guess my mass replies are pretty short but I write longer ones here and there; I just want anybody who draws to feel included so they can never come back to /ic/ and say nobody ever gave them a (you) and gave up on drawing on account of that)Besides, when I mass-post, doesn’t that aggro all the crabs and encourage other people to post? I know a lot of anons here go into hiding when they get crabbed ‒ and some of them even leave forever on account of getting crabbed ‒ or am I wrong? If I can get more (you)’s from crabs than anybody else, and have more verbal abuse thrown at me than anybody else, that fosters a better environment where more people can be encouraged to post their shit, regardless of whatever skill level they’re at.Didn't the popularity of this thread blow up because I started getting autistic with my posts way up earlier starting with post? >>7167933Again, I mean no harm. I might be autistic though.(The webm cut off a few seconds at the end, here's the whole mileage sheet)
