I mean, it sounds like you'd be more upset that the trick isn't actually pen pressure, it's being good at line work.
>>
>>7892691
it's not pen pressure, or a magic setting. you do alot of linework, and in my own experience, line exercises on their own- which amounts to quite a bit of tedious attempts at making straight lines and drawing over curves. not fun, not easy, or fast, and you don't quite ever run out of a potential benefit from doing it.

Dude. It's digital. If you don't get your line right just undo.

I can't access the board from the work computer and now I keep getting some weird pseudo-ban on my home computer. What a world, I just thought of a workaround though so we should be okay going forward
>>
>>7892691
I find getting a good line is often about using the erasure tool as much as it is about drawing the line well initially.
Because it's digital, it's quite difficult to get the line right, but because it's digital, you can redo, erase, and edit the line (or whatever) infinitely.

Yeah I don't get it it, either. I gave it an honest attempt but I know the shit he's explaining isn't going to be retained in my long term memory. His basic exercises up to a point gave me a lightbulb what I was doing wrong in another course and that's all I needed from Hide to move on.

I use TVPaint, they have those color layers where you just draw seeds for the bucket fill.

Here I just drew some lines one time and it figured it out, to shade it you'd have invisible layers with the value outlines I guess, like those orange blobs you see on professional WIPs sometimes

Seems like the tutorial does not explain how to space out the grid evenly (or even show the method for that matter) and just assumes you already know it.
Learn how to multiply and divide in perspective then learn how to draw grids.
(Look up "division and subtraction perspective" or something to that tune, you should find some youtube videos on it)

>>7891946
If it's the properly placing vanishing points part I honestly found the how to draw by scott robertson explination eazier on how to space VPs and do grids.
Otherwise how did you get filitered by perspective made eazy? Try doing the homework exercises maybe?

>>7892613
The how to draw grid method would help you here so you can get more equall looking ground checkerboard squares.

>>7892328
This (can help if you get stuck).
Also try playing around with the underlying principle after that so you aren't just blindly copying.

construction is a fucking joke
>so to draw a head you must first draw this hyper detailed and correct 3d shape with lines in all the correct spots
I need construction lines to help me create the construction lines. Its an endless recursion of "just draw" because I can't draw heads, so why would I be able to draw spheres, or circles, or lines? I need an objective opening like in chess.
>>
>>7894755
>hyper detailed
The point of doing it that way is because the 3d shape is simpler than the actual realistic head you're trying to draw.
It might be useful for you to practice by drawing heads from reference if you're not ready for this. This will give you a better idea of what the end result is supposed to look like and how to draw the rest of the owl so to speak. Otherwise you'll be like the guy who memorizes openings but has no idea how to play midgames and endgames.

This

whats your process for coloring night/atmoshpheric scenes with different colors affecting the environment/ background.

I see some people putting on a filter, ie blue filter for night, whereas others draw the colors themselves, understanding how they would react, and while it may not technically be right, it often looks better, ie characters not being affected as much as the background to stand out more

did a test on this page thanks to some of the tips here, hows the color in this look, and how could i improve it?

also yeah the art itself aint the best (feel free to crit), but im trying to work on improving that too, recently switched to digital. page probably looks odd too, but its the end of the chapter, and is sorta meant to show what all the current characters are up to, (dead, hypnotised, driving, Mcdonalds receipt)

having more than blue OR purple in the palette turns night into more dawn/dusk (like in the OPs pic). choose one or other.

A large amount of artists block their scenes out in blender first to get the perspective 100% correct
>>
>>7887999
Drawabox is the most basic of knowledges an artist needs in order to draw anything from memory. It's just perspective 101.
In order to draw like this you need much much more knowledge, especially in terms of drawing mileage.

As I always say, stop thinking on how to learn to draw as fast as possible and instead draw as much as possible.

Yeah, they'll be fine. Honestly markers are so expensive that using them as your main coloring method doesn't seem worth it, so I wouldn't invest too much if I were you.

i'm never quite sure how serious 4chan is about trannies. /g/ is also obsessed with them, but i think it's totally expected to see troons in career paths like programming and art because it's not physically demanding and they can be holed up in their bedroom all day and get paid for it. they would probably have a hard time holding a job that requires them to work in open view of the general public or do anything that requires intense manual labor.

trannies make pretty good art. i've hired a few of them. as long as you don't show off you're /pol/tard power level they do good work for generally pretty cheap and not a lot of fuss (although wait times are usually pretty crazy).

You make a new account where your aunt doesn't follow you, focus the new one on NSFW and the older one of SFW, the issue is someone could find both accounts and connect the dots, so it's a risk. I'd just follow what (>>7894250) said, though surely with how this economy is, and how difficult it is to live off of art, if that's your goal, we have to do stuff we ain't proud.
