It's amazing how a post can get thousands of likes/RTs on Twitter but can still only net you maybe a few dozen followers.

But at least it looks like you or account finally got the jumpstart it needed. I hate my sad and lonely art account ;_;

Read again pal, I said you still need to know the real anatomy before you start doing this.
I'm assumming OP thinks he can skip learning real bodies and jump into learning mannequins, just like some people think they can do Pixel art instead of learning how to draw.

I'm glad i watched the sub

I got a surface pro just now. How do you set it up for painting and drawing ?

My normal ps workflow includes a buttload of hotkeys in tiny menues that is shit with the touch. Resizing brushed or making new layers or even ctrl z seems like a hassle now.

>>3721966
idk dude, I use Clip Studio on the surface and it's great cause mostly everything you're mentioning is there on the screen. Sucks you like using overpriced photo manipulation software to make art.

>>3716915
god damn, fuck digital art man
i'm just trying to digitally color my drawings, and now i've got to do a fucking soul-searching endeavor, deep dive into the internet to figure out how NOT to waste 500 dollars on a fucking fragile, piece of shit tablet that will break after 6 months, apparently. why does this have to be so much harder than buying a goddamn nice sheet of paper and pen? jesus, it's so frustrating.

>>3722385
stfu fag, nobody's forcing you to draw digital, chill

>>3722385
buy a screenless tablet if you want quality then
those are cheap and tough

>>3722870
this makes me wanna revisit Docu

>>3722870
Yes, the extra subtlety of the collarbones and smoothness of the shoulders helps significantly. The clavicles definitely do the weird inverse thing. I think something mildly odd is that the shoulders don't follow the direction of the ribcage, I think that makes the upper body flow less.

hmu with that BLOG

>>3722086
a good start is Anki flashcards for vocab+ Genki textbook for grammar. use the core 6k deck for anki. learn the syllabaries (reading and writing them) and then the radicals to make looking up and remembering kanji easier. study everyday. immerse yourself in native material. 頑張って!

>>3711147
Because you should want to make the lines yourself. Relying on a crutch isn't a good way to improve.

can you hide mediocre anatomy under loose clothes?

>>3722905
No, stop making excuses

>>3722905
yes

>>3722878
Thanks for the feedback friend!
I usually do super flowy brush pen shit so I'm not used to using small pens and doing details. I think you can tell where I got bored haha.
For this I used a 005 micron, paper is mix media 7x10.

I’m a girl, gay, and I mostly draw men. I don’t think there’s really a correlation unless maybe their work has super sexual themes.

I’m a dude who draws landscapes, give me attention.

And here's my drawing:

I don't even know where to start shading his face in, but I know there has to be some shadow on it =/
I know how to draw features in really harsh, direct lighting, but this is tricky for me.

Oh, sorry, I didn't see there was a /Beg/inner thread. I'll post there instead. Feel free to delete this one jannies.

Why did you make a new thread instead of just posting the better angled pic in the old thread?

Why the new thread OP?

This. Jeff Watts’ rambling is GOOD, redarts!

>>3722075
well maybe he is not good at english and have to struggle to find the right word to express himself

>>3722257
doubt it

>>3722095
>>3722113

Jeff's pep talks might be useful for young teens or fuck-ups who toke all day in their parents' basements. If you've got your shit reasonably together like any normal person, he's costing you $$$ to tell you obvious things about life that you know already, in a condescending (but sincere) way at that.

It's pretty arrogant to style himself as some kind of life coach/philosophical guru, dispensing unsolicited, self-evident "advice", when people are paying him for drawing instruction, because, you know, that's what he does for a living. It actually would be ok if he talked about the lesson mostly and rambles a bit, but he does the inverse.

Still, no doubt he has the drawing/painting chops, so his shit it totally worth pirating. The lack of crit means you have to think for yourself, which shouldn't be an issue unless you have room temp IQ or are an absolute novice at drawing.

Wasteful posts

This guy might have a stutter but he's a top artist enough to be tolerated as an instructor despite his disability and he is bilingual, besides. You can't even make it through a 20 minute lecture, let alone live like that. Soft-ass nigga, this is why you're not going to ma-m-m-ma-ma-m-m-m-make it, faggot!

that's right, take your time, learn how to translate your reply , and make sure to use auto correct for yourself. stupid cunt.

Only on /ic/ do you get anons who don't know how to proceed in crabbing when the ball is actually in their favor no matter what.

>>3722614
Yes, anon, let me just squeeze what little mental and emotional energy I have from grinding away at my shit ass job.

Such naive thinking. The system just isn't set up to allow for creatives to flourish. Get a job to escape the guillotine of poverty and death. Your art doesn't matter because you are a cog in the machine.

>>3722896
If you put all your heart and soul for 5 to 10 years in drawing you can escape the office just the same.

>>3722318
Im 19 and have tried drawing in the past with meh results. When I was kid I was the best artist, probably along with everyone else on /ic/. Fuck, I miss that so much
