>>7906303Wip. Rendering with a ballpoint is pretty hard
>>7909633Looks really moody, anonBig fan
Comic page, I feel like I only enjoy drawing with mechanical pencil

Old thread:>>7877320The official reference thread where autists tell you to not use references.
Can someone explain why there are no Howards Lyon sets here? I've no interest in Russian slop. Especially for portrait drawing https://cubebrush.co/howardlyonart/products/tutr0g/naomi-fairytale
>>7909219they cost more than the others studio
>>7909219there are some on cgp

I downloaded this Usa Miharu pack from this thread a few months ago but a bunch of my stuff got corrupted recently and I lost it, anybody willing to share it again?
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.Previous thread: >>7852768
Why do dip pen nibs degrade so fast while fountain pen nibs seem to last forever?
>>7907762Start with a base layer in gray (grisaile) or, for example, chrome oxide green (verdaccio); once it’s dry, apply a wash of skin tone over it. In this image, the ears, nose, and fingers are red; the half-shadows are gray; and the brightest areas are contrasted with the rust-red next to them.
How could I tell the difference between getting better vs not being as lazy?
Are there any guides for transferring my paper and pen skills to digital?
Do you have any resources/yt videos or anyone that explains in depth the volumes around the eyes? I really feel lost when it's time to draw eyes

There's breaks to stop people from burning out between rounds.>Random art battles?CRAB has had animations, VNs, DOOM.WADs, and more submitted as entries in the past, that's where the 'random art' comes from.>How does this work?Comment too long.

>>7908695What >>7908735 said, except it's been more than "one or two."
>>7908977that cokehead is a faggot but hope he stays back in his lane and keeps it kino
>>7908376Cutelooking forward to their entry
>>7909392He stopped doing coke, teamed up with fatass PPP and became kino.
>>7909460That's good to hear, I just hope metokur can make a miraculous recovery>>7908970Why does this happen? and why is it always furries...
>started at 27Hey guys I'm turning 25 tomorrow and I'm having a mid-life crisis.Are there any examples of artists who made something out of themselves later in life?
>started at 27>Hey guys I'm turning 25 tomorrow
>>7896353Urasawa has always drawn but he didn't plan or pursue to become a manga artist and graduated with a degree in economics.Also when he tried submit one of his stories to jump he was basically just told to fuck off.So he only really entered professional art work in his early twenties and didn't have his first (own) major published work until almost 30.
>>7897465that is indeed some pretty decent progress anon, good job
>Since I didn't know how to ink or really draw, I used Flash, which is vector drawing software (like Adobe Illustrator), for illustrations.If I'm reading this right, the guy who did Dofus/ Wakfu didn't start seriously until he was 25.
>>7910097will there ever be a single hub that will produce as many decent and successfull artists as flash and newgrounds?
I've been playing around with acrylics. I kind of like this one. How terrible is it?
hehe look at that pride of lions
>>7907752It looks more like a Stuff toy version of a Lettuce monster.
>>7907752I actually really like the lions a lot. I can’t put my finger on it but there is some emotion there and I like the colors. I’d be really interested to see more work from you that comes from this place inside of you. The turtle is cute but doesn’t make me feel much other than delight at his tiny turtle space helmet and lack of spacesuit but has an emblem nonetheless, lol
>>7908071you know the whole point of art is to be fun and expressive. even the advice that you hear from masters are just optional. as long as you don’t make ai slop and call it art you are a respectable artist.
>>7907752Sky is really pretty and the red eyes mesh well with it
Is there any way to make drawing more enjoyable? I like the idea of being an artist
>>7902143That's a pretty good analogy, anon. Thanks.
>>7894685>I like the idea of being an artistKEK
>>7894685>Is there any way to make drawing more enjoyable?Unironically work on it until you can see improvement. You do this by comparing your recent art to the old one.There's no bigger incentive than the realization that you are making progress.
>>7894689/thread
>>7906517trvke i am miles away from my ideal but i am miles away from where i started, too. it feels good to know steady and deliberate practice won’t fail you
ITT pencils only you like
HB NUMBER 2
>>7856949Based as fuck
I like them
It depends on which pencil
>>7870060Very good. Thank you anon
Hi anons i hope you all doing well btw here's a silent comic I've did in 6 days to challenge myself feel free to criticize so i can improve thank you page 1
>>7904477I guess he still lack confidence
>>7907420>he lack confidenceAnon, OP is already better than many people here by having the balls to work on comics
>>78586871st page has perspective issues sporadically. Biggest issue is that I don't know what I'm looking at in the bottom two panels. Why do they only have three fingers?>>7858688Pretty solid splash page.>>7858689Same here, although the kid clearly isn't actually sitting on their dad's shoulders.>>7858690Fairly solid page. Perspective issues again, but I don't get what emotion the bottom-right panel is implying.>>7858691Probably your best page. I could always tell what was going on.>>7858701Again, fairly solid. Things are jumping around quite a lot though so I'm only really following along that she wants to be a wrestler and not what's happening in the moment or where she is.>>7858719Good, emotional page.>>7858720Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>7858687first thing i noticed is the lack of lightingwhole panels where the only visible shadows are between someones chin and the neck (always in the drawn in same spot too) and within small fabric creases / places where a shadow should 'obviously' be.using lighting more decisively can create immersion, set moods, direct the viewers attention to whats important etc and when youre limiting yourself to black and white, lighting is one of one of the best tools for this stuff.
>>7909980>>7858687also because I love wrestling I drew the guy for you
Drawing Courses for beginners are made maliciously to farm cash from beginners because they are the biggest market.
>>790887390% of internet users are brown. It's not 2005 anymore where the internet was 95% white
>>7909329autists who flex like this are worse than ESLs
>>7909409>moving the goalpostsclassic 4chan
i hate cube and box niggers so much it's unreal
>>7910012why
first time try drawing a comic on mspaint, thoughts?how can i improve?
>>7907905confusing dialog layout
>>7907905only use text for important stuff that can't be expressed visually. why not draw her generosity instead of explaining it? perhaps find a way of visually connecting the location instead writing "i will visit there" and "it was closed years ago".
>>7908440Show me your vision
>>7908440Ok
>>7908683No
>2026What is your first official (meaning you drew + finished it 100%) work of the New Year?Mine's is pic related
>>7874743cute feet
>>7902294where's the rest?
>>7886308Kind of brazen advertising
>>7907770it's kind of a based grift, not gonna liehe's been doing it for a VERY LONG TIME as well, I remember seeing him post in /lolg/ over at /vg/ for eons and apparently he still does it on /v/ as welli imagine this is what all schizophrenics ritual spammers would be like if they had actual hobbies, so for some reason I see it less maliciously
>>7902793>smoking weed while drawingdrinking is better and more high class
i always come back to this post to have a good hearty kek
>>7894640The people who know what skeletons look like are chiropractors and they're considered pseudoscienceSurgeons will literally put your heel bones in backwards given the opportunity because they don't know shit about fuck
>>7894640I mean, some of the most well known manga artists were in medicine.
>>7895003You wrote this like a spaz but "just draw" is indeed garbage advice, it's hardly advice at all.
>>7894640I went to medschool. Artists know anatomy better than doctors (except surgeons) in many ways. It's not that funny, really.They'd be better with nerves and vascularity and how to name every small thing, but actual understanding? That's in the realm of the artist who studies it every day.Physicians are overrated in many, nany ways. Clueless, book smart practitioners, thinking themselves scientists.
>>7908141>Artists know anatomy better than doctorsyou're talking about unicorn artists who actually know their anatomy, which likely less than 1%most artists just make shit up or use references
Which is the better painting and why
>>7909069they are both extremely shit and you have no talent OP
It's better to you ask this on /beg/ & /int/
Animation general will archive soonGo vote for whatever posted animation should be the next OP image >>7871881We need board-wide input on thisVote for multiple anims you like in your vote-post So a few favourites wont steal the showWe will tally all the total votes when the thread archivesGod speed Patriots o7o7o7
bump
>>7908384Why not just take over as the thread maker? Seems like you're more invested than anyone else...people don't care about "voting" and if they do it's just trolling. They just want to have someone trustworthy to make the thread with randomized art like listening to a playlist on shuffle as nearly everyone here is lazy to upkeep things.
>>7909258im tryna incentivize pywplus being anonymously voted for is more gratifying than fake social media likes
>>7909259I see the strategy, but if people got animations to post they'd post it. Luckily for you by default you won't get the usual trolls to your general that will object to any voting but that also means no artificial conversation starters.
bump the second
