>>7917517>she is suppose to be just 150 cm tallSorry to go all non metric on you, If you are going for a height that is 150 cm (4'9") then you did actually get the number of heads to her total height correct. It comes out to 6.8 heads tall if her head height is roughly 22cm (8.6inch)Obviously, to find out how many heads tall you are IRL you can draw your height and silhouette on a wall and divide the length of your head by your total height. I myself have done this, I am 7.5 heads tall at 170cm (5'7") with my head height being 22cm. Proportionally, someone who is 6 feet tall (182cm) is about 8.2 heads tall.I was going to correct you until I realized I miscounted.
>>7917479Then draw her naked
>>7917585Holy shit this is extremely useful infoIs there a graphic of this i can save?

>>7917396very nice, i like it :3
>>7917360It doesn’t matter if it didn’t originate in Japan, what matters is Japan is the best country to be an artist and Japan is the one with the multi billion dollar cartoon industry, not the west. It doesn’t matter if “we wuz first” them then the golden pot is theirs.
>>7917514Okay! I'm working on a cute fanart image set of Chrono Ark. Thoughts?https://files.catbox.moe/e5zpu9.pnghttps://files.catbox.moe/9dzgbf.pnghttps://files.catbox.moe/vxsmv9.pngJust started rendering, but since there's gonna be a lot of sticky fluids, it probably won't be done until next week.
Loles so goode...
>>7917601Face is symbol drawn (eyes too close together and the upper eyelids should appear more round when the eyes are drawn from below).Also, the shoulders tend to move toward the hands i.e. hand reaching upward = shoulder moves upward. In your case the shoulder is in neutral position so its like she's resting her hands on top of the stick instead of wrestling with it
So... What is your opinion on 3D?Do you use it at all?Is it easier to 2D?
>>7917100Topology doesn't really matter outside of the hip area, face and joints. Everything else is for the sake of optimization.
>>7916500Because you're hiring Russian porn artists and Californian 3D modeller
>>7917100how long would it take somebody thats knows how to draw (assuming the skills are transferable) to be able to make wireframes at this level?
>>7917361I mean, if you can color and paint maybe a week or soIt's just box-modeling, the hard part of low poly is painting because it's what carries it
I’ll never understand how people can make those high quality porn vids of baldurs gate 3 or Overwatch in blender. I wish they had guides
how many hours of drawabox do i need to draw like this
>>7913258Can I replace Draw A Box with Dynamic Sketching (already have the videos), or is that too complex?
>>7913400I think Draw a Box is just a revamped version of Dynamic Sketching. The issue is that both of them get into form/perspective WAY too early. I don't remember how exactly Peter Han did it. If you just focus on his lines/curves exercises, then yea. You're good. But I don't recommend going beyond that until you have a decent ability to copy. Doesn't have to be perfect, just good enough.
>>7913406Doubt it's "revamped" considering it's free. I imagine it's overall of lesser quality
>>7913415I guess that wasn't the right word. I guess "robust" is a better word? It has way more information on how to do the exercises than the Dynamic Bible from what I remember. The DB just says to do these exercises, use your arm, blah blah, but doesn't really go into as much detail as DAB does.Even though I think DAB is a terrible resource for beginners, the first few pages are actually very useful. But once he starts to get into perspective, that's when it all falls downhill. You're better off using other resources beyond his initial line exercises.
In other words dont do drawabox if you're an adhdfag

>>7884923I have tailbone pain and I can't sit well or for long.What are effective ways to draw while standing?How do I deal with digital on my PC?
How do I keep from learning the wrong things.
>>7915587https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Warhol_Foundation_for_the_Visual_Arts,_Inc._v._GoldsmithEthics aside, I reckon your work is terrific. If I were the photographer, I'd probably send you more photographs.Pic related might be considered a similar transformation (drastic change in color, limited change in form) and the Supreme Court said it was not transformative enough. I think Warhol's work is lower effort and more similar to the original than your own, though. That court case may be a good starting point if your interested in the legal tedium of it all.
I am working on my models and, while I see the improvement from my first time I used a pencil, I'm still so below what I want to do. How do I keep on going?

>>7916441Anon , i love Lain, honestly i like both, you did good. Lain face and eyes are the hardest part of her. As much i would like more content of her official version, we don't need perfect copies.Even then I am happy to see even more people studying her.Thanks for sharing!
>>7917042Thank you. This is the nicest comment I ever received on this Mongolian basket weaving forum.
>>7902209Sup, First time posting here. I might need some suggestions regarding digital illustration/manga making. Mainly in the brushes. I feel like I have far too many atm. And might want to cut some down. Got like alot of stipples brushes for example.Granted, I do worry about being limited on ink brushes that might help out for time cutting, such as cross hatches and stippling. Or generally more creative brush works.My general inspirations are Hirohiko Araki, and Takehiko Inoue. Both their illustrations and manga work, influenced my brush choices.
>>7916310Not until it exists as a product to be sold
Casual reminder that a cute, cartoony art style and good color theory has more uniqueness value and SOVL than perfect realism.
>>7916957It takes skill to create a unique and appealing style.
>>7916966i didn't draw this, i just like the artist. he has SOVL. and the purpose of this thread is to share skimpy krystal art.
>>7916957you are making a category error. realism isn't a synonym for skill
Furry shit always looks so soulless to me. Stylize it all you want, it still looks like a carbon copy of the previous Disney-influenced sludge.
>>7916957>good color theory>cute, cartoony artstylepic unrelated? i mean its soulful in the way most early digital furry art is but otherwise its clearly going for realistic anatomy even if its failing and it has eye searing blue and puke green for its palette
Guys im just found out that theres a chinese drawing app named huashijie Pro/画世界proits rumored to chinese artists basically usedin almost every xiaomi and huawei tablet, and basically used for drawing anime characters with good backgroundsproofs: https://youtu.be/6spuXsJkF00?https://youtube.com/shorts/wZavsbWqs6Ahttps://youtube.com/shorts/dApSrgin5Eshttp://xhslink.com/o/1BVEVRY4aG7http://xhslink.com/o/9NPwl1dZ2Hvhttp://xhslink.com/o/2pXpMUfEsik investigate more further if you more evidenceComment too long.

>>7917550American tranny artists are so desperate for a conceptart.org copy, that they will cross Chinese firewall just so they get goodboy points for doing DrawABox exercises at age 41; LMAO

ITT pencils only you like
>>7870060Very good. Thank you anon
Which ever
>>7855593>Uses wooden pencil>Hands smell like wood afterwardNah I left these in elementary school and never looked back
>>7855593Haven't used any other thing for the past 20 years.
Loomis, but actually useful.
>>7916879Except this doesn't teach you to think in 3d at all
>>7917060It has a lot of more complex design to draw, but I don't think he really teaches you how to go about approaching them.Then again, the book is mostly just filled with examples, for the intention of copying - and that can be done with any type of art you like.

>>7917546I kneel.
Was he the greatest underground comic book artist of all time?
>Archie was drawn at 12x17">Crumb now draws at 14x17"This is exciting because he now has a few more inches of width to add background art. He even drew GENESIS at 11x14" lol
What was Marty Pahls like, was he like the tomdnyc of Cleveland or...? It's kind of strange that he never features in a comic
>>7917518He was Robert's friend for years, but things got weird when he married Robert's sister and she became a lesbian and left him, and he quickly became an alcoholic to cope from the heartache.
>>7917522trying to picture the Butch Yum Yum Book rn
>>7916456I'll take shit that never happened for $400 AlexJk cool story bro whether it's true or not
It's so painful to use
How do you mix colors in this piece of shit
>>7915327Thank you so much. I might actually finish my animation projects now
>>7915327It's kinda difficult to get FOSS projects to follow the common convention tho since there's basically no real leadership and the ones who implements these things spent more coding than actually drawing
>>7917066>>7917199The only gay thing about this is that you have to switch to your Brush before you go to your Eraser. You can't go from Move tool to eraser. But whatever, it's the only program that doesn't suck on my XPPen.
i love kritaafter like, 3 add-ons and 2 config changes
the artists who make it ironically are the soulless ones doing it for the money, because their ambition forces them to paint at a high level
okay and?
I doubt it. There are so many capable artists out there that the determination of success is likely to be the ability to market yourself and your work.
>>7917453This is the realization every artist has once they get to a decent level because the reality is decent is all you need to actually start selling your art. Mastery is what gets you jobs at studios and stuff, but let's be real, in the great 2026, that shit's chopped.
>>7917424AIslop
>>7917424just stop being autistic lmao
How good should I be at drawing before i start doing commisions?
>>7917539Depends on what people want from you. Also there's a whole thread for questions like this >>7884923
>>7917539Damn, that's some cheap Casper the Ghost drawings right there.
