What's the best art advice you received?
>>7169446No, it's actually less harsh than wacom surfaces.An acetate sheet would be better for tip preservation if a bit slippery.
>>7168853>What's the best art advice you received?some of the best thing an artist neglects is relaxing time. That's why I play plenty of video games, like my wife Alissa Chung.
>>7168957this really is one of the worst tips i've gotten.>>7169639>anon discovers thinkinglol
>>7170398
>>7168853That large shadows with defined shapes are MUCH more appealing than many small indecisive shadows on a figure.
Post your work and I a /beg/ will give you as much constructive criticism as I can
>>7168487Very nice It's so dark almost like you try to hide something hahaThe eye that is open looks less like an eye but more like a screen. Its a very simplistic way of drawing eyes for such detailed pieceAlso, I don't know what it is with the boys but something strikes me as off. I hope someone else can describe it betterClothing general seems to be very tight looking especially around the armsThe chocker has no volume of its own , it just ends and starts where the throat does, its actually even smaller But all in all good job
>>7169946Nice anatomy study but I think you went a little too hard, making the muscles visible which gives the entire thing some unnatural colouring The shadows in general look too dark The crotch area also looks a bit funky desu I struggle with that myself still so I rather not go into greater detail All in all good direction but you should study how other artists would draw this >>7170464Left has some nice colouring but the way you drew the pattern on her clothing makes it feel a little flat, it should bend a little I think Right has a good attempt at a slightly more complicated angle, the arm suffers from it a little though Also the knife has no volume of its own thoughPretty good
I hope this retard schizo dies soon
Has anyone here actually deeply, intently, and thoughtfully studied Proko's OG course, Figure Drawing Fundamentals?Stan seems like a better artist than Vilppu, Eviston, Dodson, and all other meme ic teachers combined. The only other teacher who draws better than him is Steve Huston. For those who did actually study Proko, what kind of gains did you make? Would you recommend it to beginners? intermediates? Would you even recommend it to pros?
> Stan seems like a better artist than Vilppu, Eviston, Dodson, and all other meme ic teachers combined.lol, lmao you got filtered by dark core shadows
he didn't invented gesture, box mannequins and beans
>>7170595I know good overcast lighting when I see it ;)
>>7170601>picrellooks alright, needs fewer pixels though
>>7170390Courses are for people without talent or absolute beginners who don’t know what to do at all. Talented individuals learn by simply drawing from books they choose to pick up which happens because they know instinctively how and what to study
>traditional painters can make the transition to digital almost effortlessly and very quickly make art that better than digital ""painters"" who have been doing it for years>digital ""painters"" seemingly regress to near /beg/ levels if you make them do anything traditionalReally makes you ponder. The same also holds true with sculpting vs digital sculpting. Digital in general is an impoverished, hacky ""medium""
>>7166431>Although he already has experience with digital art (he worked in Photoshop)wow, it's fucking nothing
>>7164447>daemons>evil
>>7164433Yes. They are already used to no-layer drawing. Digital artists tend to overuse layers.When the artist whose trained on no layers comes to a media where you can choose to use only 1 layer, he can do well. When the artist who is too used to using multiple layers comes to trad media, it can be difficult to adjust at first.
>>7164433I don't have the time, money, space, or ability to carry a bunch of paintings around with me as I move every 6 months kys.
>>7164433Is charcoal and graphite above digital art?

>>7170587second this, I bought it and am doing the exercises as they come out. Brent Eviston's course is better (i've done that one, as well as DoTRS).
>>7170593Man, can you download and shase these brushes, please? I think they're free for people that have premium https://www.proko.com/course-lesson/what-you-need-to-know-about-brushes/downloads
>>7170593It feels like I bought a very expensive course just to get a bunch of stupid exercises. You would learn more by taking random objects and trying to draw them yourself. That course is so mediocre
>>7170146Don't have a phone and it's banned in my country lol.
Does anyone have a download of Robert Hale s anatomy lectures that are on youtube? They are pretty kino

I posted this a while ago, but thoughts on these designs?
see? It's easy to draw popular stuff, you just need to keep drawing and git gud anon
>>7170712>anon has another schizophrenic episodesounds like a lot of coping and seething desu fampai
>>7170723I accept your concession.
>>7170727Anon said the thing!you're so heckin witty and epic, sister!
>>7170729Continue seething about numbers, anon. Your ideas will surely get you somewhere and not another rant about muh discord boosting.
>>7170730>cloutschizo still seething that one random anon doesn't deem meaningless numbers meaningful by spamming that he actual caresunironically needs to cope that 80% of his followers are bots
There's plenty of porn artists who primary draw straight art yet all their real sexual experiences are either with men or MTF trannies, even though cherry picked Twitter artists aren't exactly a good representation.
>>7170535Why the hell did you have to bump this stupid thread.
>>7167373>animals fucking and making animal kids they can't raise fuck shit up for the whole speciesThanks, Captain.
>>7166381It's fine to try to replicate Marine's handiwork if the objective is to study.
>>7161453I'm a het foid and think that stronger jawlines on women are beautiful. Usually. If they look feminine otherwise, it can really bring a nice balance to their appearance that makes them more striking. But that said, masculine looking women are still women. If you were going hard for roided up women with chins that could crack pavement, I would question your sexuality. If you just see features in other guys that you would like to see in yourself, and muscle mommies give you a chub, you're just straight and have whatever taste you have. Asking /ic/ if you're gay is pretty gay though.
>>7162286Isn't sex also a bonding thing?Also orgasm happens if you stimulate the erogenous zone(s) enough, doesn't matter if you are into it or not or who or even what is doing it.>>7169166Something tells me straight woman. 25% chance it's a straight man instead 10% anything else.
What kind of content is good for a SFW Patreon?Are there examples of a SFW account that you subscribe to?
Electrician tutorials, disassembling power tools to describe and review the components. Different types of motor, plastic, housing, etc.Hope that helps, good luck.
>>7170442resources to learn X that are so good it's worth paying, not much more than that, I don't tend to pay for shit anyways
>>7170442Content that you're already a fan of, that's understandably a lot of work and needs a bit of financial help (such as comics or animation). Trying to build a fan base up before the patreon plea though, must be quite difficult.
>>7170442courses and animation content get the normies hyped
For stupid questions and questions that don't deserve their own thread.Post here if you don't expect your thread to reach 100+ replies.
>>7170563Thanks, anon. I understand what you say, but the image I showed is from a game and with a resolution of 1400xsomething it can look like pic related. So, how can achieve that? I understand the part of not showing much info because of too little space, though.
>>7170425Likely polymer clay. A popular brand is super sculpey or monster brand
>>7170568thanks
>>7168086For figures I'd recommend figure drawing alongside copying bridgman. You don't really know what you're learning until you put it to the test. >or rhythm? I don't understand the terminology sorrythat would be gesture. there are good youtube videos that cover its basics but if you want to really understand it you should find some books on it. Hampton's figure drawing is a pretty good starter though.
>>7170578Likewise, i am now a fan of this artists work!

So any of you kiddies have your parents buy you the new ipad pro to doodle your animays cartoon pics?
is there a way to avoid sweating all over the screen? i swap gloves every 30 minutes and i'm still wetting it, god i hate summer so much
>>7170654what kinda gloves are you wearing broI wear drawing gloves even when not drawing at my computer nowadays (sensory stuff) and never sweat in them even though I'm pretty sweaty otherwise, maybe you just have naturally sweaty hands
Fuck apple so hard man I walked past a best buy earlier so I went in to see the new ipads for myselfThe new pen feels nice, the haptics are great. The etched glass screen is pretty good too. But goddamn I am not spending money just to upgrade to this. And I know they could have made the new pen backwards compatible. I know they could've just not paywalled this nano texture shit. But of course they won't, because they're fucking apple.

How does one get commissions? On insta there are accounts with a third of my follower count receiving regular comms. On twitter I find it very hard to receive exposure, and using the site makes me very depressed because of this. But again I see accounts with fewer followers than me receiving comms. Does a better commission sheet help? Do you just beg harder? I need external validation
Majority of my clients come from DA. Pick a fetish/niche you like to draw and make sure people into that fetish can find you. Pic related is my 72th commission batch WIP
>>7170661Genius. Didn't want to lie but I'm desparate, I'll try this if I still don't get commissions
>>7170675Are you Jujudrop from deviant art?Anyways, is drawing porn or fetish stuff objectively the fastest way? I'm not really into drawing that but I'm tempted because I hate the fact that my hobby isn't bringing in pocket money
>>7170682Yes, I am.I can only talk of my own experience but when people commission art they want something personal that tickles their funny bone. Niche fetish is usually something people want to pay for as they get to see their personal kink come real. So yeah, sex and fetish sell. And it should def be some fetish you yourself are into and understand, because it shows in your art if you have passion for it and people are more likely to comm you to draw it for them
>>7170684Thanks, your work is great btw. It's not my fetish but I see why it's appealing.
how often do you guys draw?
>>7164122Like 1-3 hours. I try to get a drawing done (at least inking) every day. Even if I absolutely don't feel like it or if I hate what I'm drawing.
>>7164122I'd say 2 hours a day at least. Hard to draw less honestly, I'm having a lof of fun. I have a lot of free time and I work from home. Really easy to get multiple reps in of figure/gesture drawing.
>>7165283Jerking off is great for improvement of art skills though. It improves motor functions and hand dick coordination which is vital for artists.
>>7164122not enough
>>7170667>Jerking off is great for improvement of art skills thoughthis. if your schedule doesn't look like this, you're NGMI
