>>7868474Where do boxes come from?
>>7868474What do you think of this site? Should I post my stuff here?
I'm a total beginner and I'm trying to follow the /ic/ learning path. I'm suffering from the so called "symbol drawing" and it seems that the first step to learning to draw is getting rid of that habit. The guide recommends two books: Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, and Keys to Drawing. But do I HAVE to read ALL of both books? From what I've seen from both books it's just author schizo rambling, and I don't think I have patience for that.
>>7868426Forget that book. Draw this box 100 times.
>>7868438Your line work is sophomoric
>>7868426You don't need to read entire books. Just do the practice exercises from that book.
>>7868426what do you want to draw lmao
>>7868426The 'trick' is to oscillate between the brain’s hemispheres, rather than favoring just one. One hemisphere [the instinctive one] simply accepts the world as it is, while the other[ the one of will] seeks to impose its own intentions. If you create solely from one perspective, you will produce unbalanced art: either too redundant or too autistic.

>>7868081I made the original comment, here is my art. I frequented here some years ago and I remember being humbled by the artists that were on here. And people were being sent back to /beg/ if a certain quality was not existent in the stuff they posted in /draw/, this was THE place to get feedback and haul your ass up to get some fucking splendid work done.
which one do you think has more wide appeal?
>>7868450for dark fantasy, b. for fun/goofy fantasy, a.
>>7868456maybe I should've explained, but they are both for my dark fantasy project, but I only want to share one atm, so I'm trying to figure out which of them as more appeal.
>>7868335Good. Fuck off and stay gone, loser. These threads are better without your shitty over-processed anime girl garbage
Alright all of you lurkerfagsPick an animation from all the animations posted in the archived thread to be the OP: >>7783056Not just the animators i want your opinions tooThere can be only ONE™ objectivly THE BEST Animation posted in that thread And (you) get to decidelet me have this mods its better than another gay slide thread about "AI is art??"

>>7868349why are koreans obsessed with black puffer coats?
>>7866803my hand on the left. saved.
>>7868350
>>7868332people on /beg/ say that copying the drawings in a book is often more important than reading the text, and I kind of agree; drawing is complicated, trying to put everything that makes a good drawing into words would result in a tome the size of the bible, so it's easier to make some drawings, expect the readers to copy them, and hopefully have them intuit the basics from doing that
Do you use any online tools for this?Use case e.g. A character has green hair and red eyes. But I can be flexible. Which greens and reds look good together?
https://color.adobe.com/create/color-wheelThis lets you drag some colors around and they stay somewhat correlated in Analogous mode. any other tools you like to use?Or do you guys just take color theory courses and that helps you paint?Or just borrow palettes from art pieces you like? Is that really the best way?Right now I'm pretty much just randomly guessing what colors look good and then changing the hue for different parts of my art until it looks okay but I feel like I'm missing thousands of better possibilities.

ITT: Give good advice that only ints and up understand, and make begs cry with frustration. I'll start.>Just try harder
>>7868336fun is most importantart is not craftliterally just drawvalue is kingcolor is easydrawing is a engineering problem not a craft problem
>>7868439>you have eyeshaving eyes and being able to see are 2 different things. The latter requires a brain, which most of IC lacks.
>>7868341begtard herereally?
>>7868460I think what he's trying to say, is that in the time you spent polishing one turd, you could've finished 3-4 other drawings and improved a lot more.
>>7868460You need to grind muscle memory
You were a good girl, Junko Furuta. After posting this on tt, people were offended by the drawing, but whatever. I'm just paying tribute to this fearless girl
>>7868265Disturbing and disgusting. Please do more.
>>7868265If she's who I think she is, that case is always on the back of my mind and scares the shit out of me to be alive.
>>7868422I'll do it. This is the only guro drawing with an irl person, I mostly only have characters
>>7868265Why are Japanese so evil?
>>7868458Because they are based
It's time to finally make it out of begdom bros
Why would I want to learn from Oridays? I watched his ten thousand hours video before I even started drawing and it discouraged me a lot, because he still sucked at the end of it. Picrel is my two hundred hours of drawing anime girls, mogging the fuck out of him.
>>7868012Pretty cute!
>>7868012>mogging the fuck out of himok bro
>>7868012It's cute but>1 girl white voidyou ain't mogging him, lil bro
>>7867882He has to force himself to be happy because if he didn't he just wasted $300 on a fucking course.
>>7848570Should've been the first reply to this stupid thread
>>7868393>stupid threadOf course the no draw calls this thread stupid.It's one of the better threads on the board, both in topic, and in actually having people draw.
>>7868393Use the stupid thread as an excuse to draw like the rest of us anon. I hate shit posters too, but you gotta use the state of the board to your advantage
>>7848570Isn't that an exception that moreso proves the rule? If she stands out because of her nose, or if you feel she has a particularly unique design compared to others, that sort of shows that the OP was right in their critique.
>>7868413anime and manga in general might suffer from a paucity in unique faces, but unique faces are no exception in the source material for that pic. it should be no surprise given togashi's technical artistic background, and this remark might indicate what the issue is with anime and manga. miyazaki has complained of a kindred problem along a different line of attack, but even his style is not immune to the cloneface critique.
How did Junji Itou get his girls to have such rounded faces? What's the trick to having such gorgeous eyes as well?
>>7868386next time you reply to a thread think: "am i responding to a nodraw who draws less than an hour a week?" and you'll vastly cut down on 1. your posting frequency 2. your frustration
>>7868386true>>7868414true>>7868419true, not that anon, ic is mainly a <5 min break during >8 hour drawing sessions, personally, the amount of cope and mental gymnastics that people will go through in order to avoid drawing it insane
>>7868419jesus christ guys am I that /beg/? Just wanted to know why no one draws as pretty as he does
>>7868446ask yourself simply, why do (YOU) think he "draws as pretty as he does"
>>7868446>no one draws as pretty as he doesthat's your taste speaking. your ability to draw curves will obviously depend on how used you are to using a pen to draw curves, while style will be a combination of early influences and the liberties you yourself take as you accrue experience.otherwise ito is indeed fantastic, though not unmatched.
I recently started recording my work process because people think my work is made with AI. https://www.youtube.com/@Nicu-%C8%98tefan-CristianAm I the one who has that problem?https://www.deviantart.com/nicu-stefan-cristian
>>7865705Accused the wrong witch ey
>>7865705lmao good riddance
>>7865705Lul
>>7862823just ignore itdon't engage with angry mobs. i nall facets of lifethis is knownI'm pretty sure a lot of ai accusations are from pro-ai trolls btw. sometimes you see a few less sophisticated attempts where it's obviousalso, if you start putting value in the process, ai rats will just start using ai to replicate the process. I've already seen some not very convincing attempts at animating the drawing process, complete with hands and all, but it will probably get better
9 times out of 10, when people accuse obvious non-AI art as being "ai slop", it's from prompters trying to goad you into sharing process videos so they can A) use it as learning material for their algorithm and B) use it to fake process videos for actual ai art. don't feed the machine.
