how the fuck do you even 'use references' for something like this?
>>3817907do rough composition, plenty of individual figure studies, use your figure studies and rough composition to do tighter drawing, start painting, hire models to do some specific shit if you run into problems>>3817912you are a dickweed
>>3818565I'm sorry, you didn't inherit the gonnamakeit genes.
I forgot if this was Ilya Repin but it at least looks like another Russian realist, and if you look at Ilya Repin's work on google images, almost every part of his big paintings has been made before, as studies - paintings or sketches- so that the final image is basically a collage of all of these sketches but reinterpreted in the context of the final composition
>>3818703The lighting is quite realistic though; I'd assume they put together some ensemble sessions for global studies and shit besides individual studies with each model
>>3818565>i’m russian (tatar)

Stupid Questions Thread and/or Questions that don't deserve their own thread and/or Vent threadYou ever stop working on something and when you come back it's better than you remember and you get the unshakeable feeling that if you try to work on this any more, that you're just gonna fuck it up and make it look worse?
Would it be a waste of time drawing simple shapes like boxes over an artist I like work. Then try and acturately copy the rest. I'm trying to learn another artists style.
I see a lot of old paintings have nice yellow tinted palletes going on. How much of this is actually just aging?
Can someone help me out with this shading? It seems off. Maybe no highlights on the belly?

chico is gonePrevious thread: >>3808186What is /ALT/? If you're looking for a place to post your cartooning then you've found the right general. This is /ic/s 1st and only merged hub where both Eastern and Western stylization can coexist peacefully, hence the double title. However, by community demand and long history, this is favorably an Anime general.>Rules & Guidelines(1) Any form of cartooning is welcome; so submit and receive feedback from others. (2) Please resize your images before posting. (3) Share your knowledge and (4) Remember to not be afraid of asking for critique. Most importantly I encourage you to keep discussion at a civil level, but you're more than welcome to share your opinions.>I came for anime. Why does the image OP say cartoons general? To distinguish from the anime study thread (janitor supported).

I fucking LOVE when the pressure sensitivity on my tablet just decides to stop working for absolutely no reason.Digital art is the BEST!
>>3818677just fix it ... it only takes like 5 fucking seconds.
>>3818677quick tip for Wacom users who's tablet driver's stop sometimes. Open Services (windows). Stop wacom service. Start Wacom service. Open the Wacom drivers to ensure they are now working. You might have to unplug and plug your tablet back in again too.
Wow, I fucking LOVE when my pencil leads break and I have to stop to re-sharpen it again.Traditional art is THE BEST

>>3818519You've really got something going for yourself and I really enjoy some of your stuff, but it seems the main thing holding you back is your inability to finish anything. You should work on sticking with pieces a little bit longer and seeing them through to completion. Everything comes across as an unfinished WIP, and just begging for some more hours to render things out to a higher level of polish. In other words, it doesn't look loose and implied and painterly - it just looks unfinished.Seeing work through to a completion is something that a lot of people on /ic/ struggle with. If you can prevent yourself from abandoning work halfway through, then I think you'd be able to better work towards your art goals (whatever they may be)
>>3818591yeah im not going for loose and painterly i just honestly fucking hate rendering and get so exhausted trying to work on these big pieces...I'm going to try to finish that piece as well as two others im working onrendering is so boringgggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg FUCK
>>3818595Why don't you try other style like cell shading for example if you hate rendering? I was like you years ago and I made the switch to other simpler style since rendering's not my cup of tea. Never regret it since then.
>>3818607because im addicted to self improvement so that i dont go insane from being alone. I cant convince myself to enjoy drawing and i have to outperform everybody younger than myselfi wasnt joking when i said that i want to die
>>3818607I did the same thing. I enjoyed a more painterly workflow for a long time, but I found myself consistently frustrated with the rendering process, and knowing when a piece is done. I gravitated towards more simple, graphic work and I think I've been much better off for it. Different strokes for different folks.

If I have a great idea for a comic but no skills to draw comicsshould I do it anyways? Or should I keep honing my skills until I am capable of making it look like a legit comic and not amateurish?e621, exhentai etc. all have tons of comics made by people who are not very good on a fundamental level, but they make their comics anyways, they gain traction and get better over timeone example would be Akatsuki Souken, I could argue that I can draw better than this particular artist, but even though his art isn't fundamentally well drawn, it's still hot as fuck, interesting and very distinguishableI am torn between whether I should just improve myself or go instantly to making comics
>>3817159>If I have a great idea for a comic but no skills to draw comicsif it's porn it doesn't matteryou could draw a stick figure with two blobs attached that vaguely look like tits and you'll get thousands of fansAdd a dick on the stick figures with tits and you'll double thatthey more perverted you go the more likes you get, skill doesn't matter for shit
>>3817944it is 'kinda' porn but it focuses more on the story of the characters, it's supposed to give you boner, but also feels
>>3817159Not every great idea can carry the piece on its own; if your idea is smut-related, then you do need the art to be competent at least in some key areas. The stuff you post as an example looks fucking retarded but I can picture having niche value for a certain audience.
>>3818684So it's vore, gotcha
>>3818693I don't see the appeal of vore so no
Why do all these damn artist sprinkle chromatic aberration in their art that effectively ruins it? What purpose does it serve other than to hurt my eyes and look like a glitchfest
Way to hide mistakes/bad art I guess
