How do background artists do those background details in the far back? Particularly with this kind of visual novel style.The current process I follow is picking colors, separating them on layers so I can easily adjust them and handrawing using a vague reference. Which I feel is tedious and time consuming. And I feel like this process is not very efficient since I end up with 12+ layers for what's like 5% of the picture. Would using 3D models or free materials make more sense for this kind of artstyle? I mainly do character illustrations with a bit of background like in VNs, but I spend more time in background details than character drawing.
>>8063717that is 3d
>>8063717start using 300pp for starters
trace them out then color like every background artist
>>8063717that is not even a drawing
Shit like this is why AI is as prevalent today. Normies simply cannot understand how art is made, most don't even know about photobashing. There will be no collective "rising up" by consumers against AI, they already consume it unknowingly with glee. The only saving grace is to get involved with your local politics and community. Let others know what is on the horizon, and it's not the billionaire funded psyop of "it's a bubble, just don't worry about it"
I can only draw if I use little construction-worker men to help me out. Where I place them gives me a better sense of space and perspective.
>>8052680That's cute.
I'm not really an artist, but I have an idea when I make dumb little sketches, of making multiple seperate ones on a peice of paper and then trying to find some commonality between them, like just the perspective, and then use it as a basis to make a larger drawing on top of it, seperate from the rest, and in an odd way the smaller sketches would fit what ends up on top of it despite it possibly being something entirely different. I know that may be retarded and perhaps gay, like I said I'm not an artist, but then I wonder how many people had such ideas that became something. I think the idea is sound.
>>8059517I guess a better way to put it is using small sketches to retroactively assess the perspective to then work on that premise. I think it sounds like a good idea for practicing at least.
>>8059428Nice dude :)
Would I say it also helps with studying/reference? Yeah, kinda. It makes it easier (for ME) to get a "feel" for something, I suppose if I was trying to 1:1 copy also the position of the little guys is cutting out the middle man, its like shortening the amount of information I have to retain.It's weird, like I have to do it all by-proxy. I can see everything I look at (reference) FINE, but I can only really "understand" it through the eyes of the little dudes.
A voice tells the elf lady "soon you will be the same height as this dwarf" What do you think it means?
>>8059739Being tiny is normal for women. She should be worried about growing taller.

Post your stuff. Get rated. Rate others. Self explanitory.Old thread:>>8012690
>>8063782t-thank you. this is kind in consideration of context.this may be a paradox from seeking harder to overcome emotional anesthesia. for reference, this is a pre-insensibilisation doodle.
>>8063166the rating system is good but artists would have to post a collage with their most recent drawings with no selection whatsoever for it to work since an important point in many tiers is consistency
>>8063795maybe that's the case, your old art is very cute, but it looks a bit generic, I may be generalizing too much from a single sample, but the accessories and foreshortened poses on your newer stuff look more intentional, it's like instead of trying to make your art fit into the cute anime girl stereotype you are now building on top of the stereotype to express more complex ideas
off topic, but we need a new watercooler talk

What's the fastest drawing workflow? Is Thumbnailing good? Brush settings?
>>8061657>What's the fastest drawing workflow?Knowledge afaik
>>8061657petersonian?
>>8061657What's this thread about? Anyway I do draw pretty fast. In order to draw fast you have to be comfortable drawing fast. And mistakes will slow you down a lot.
>>8061657>brush settings
>>8061666>it's time to draw>what do I draw?>wait, I dont want to draw>stare at my desktop for 6 hoursokay wise guy what now?
This is Theo from the web comic Silent Screams. Left is Theo fully clothed and right is Theo naked. What do you think of both art?
I find it fascinating that we're almost in woke III and over a century into queer theory but people still think bottoms are women.If gay men weren't already dealing with this shit by taking over entire industries to make sure women all get eating disorders, waste all their money on clothes and smear whale semen and radium on their faces I'd feel sorry for them
>>8063339Utter disinterest
>>8063339The type of shit the rejects over at /mmg/ get up too instead of drawing their gooncel chud comics.

is this level of skill level attainable in 10 years or am i ngmi? or should i even bother cuz ai. also whose the best teacher, how do i draw accurately/goodly, why do i get no attention on social media, and also im gay. serious replies only
janny will delete this thread but leave the 30 unironic yet identical ones alone
kinda funny how that is how all gabe threads goit has been like what, 10 years? and he still can't draw
>>8062821Nah the new jannies have already stopped showing up to work
>>8062780just take a dump on a piece of paper and call it abstract art.
brush where is the horizon line, aren't there several??
>>8063147There are only several eye level lines when a box is vertically tilted
>>8063147Whats the website?
>>8063308practicedrawingthis.com
>>8063147Imo boxes are common enough shape that you should just practice irl boxes. Tissue box, shelves, tall buildings, etc.
Horizon lines are a man made concept
Explain this, crabs.

there is an artistic area where you are too skilled to be charmingly bad but not skilled enough to be unironically good. this is what I call the untalented valley

Are there any known instances of big social media artists who are actually multiple artists operating a single account/identity? Or rather, a social media artist who also has an inker, or a colorist, or some other sort of unnamed assistant(s)?I see some artists on social media who seem to be able to churn out finished works at a pretty impressive rate, and I've wondered how many of them are really just that fast, versus how many actually have assistants.Sure, it wouldn't really be economically feasible for first worlders (unless they charge $1k+ per piece or something, or have huge Patreons), but in other countries I could certainly see it being a business. What makes me wonder is the infamous story of BBMBBF, aka the PalComix artist. Most people probably assumed PalComix was just BBMBBF, but eventually it was revealed via a tour video that PalComix was a handful of artists working together in a single building.
>>8058048Usuba Kagerou are a team of 2
>>8062255for me, it's less of a parasocial issue and more of a matter of consistency: a team of people can have individual members come and go, which can affect the final product in subtle ways, but a one-man operation will always be the same person every time, and there's a kind of dependency that a solo creator has where they can't just blame the anonymous inker/colorist/etc for shit work, or disappear off the face of the earth without it being highly visible to all of their fans.i like to commission reference sheets of original characters, and i like commissioning the same artist every time so i can get them in the same style so if i ever commission a second artist for a group-piece (if i could ever afford it), they would have a matching style

>>8058048Gurihiru
>>8059119That's more or less how artists studies traditionally ran as well, though to me personally, I think that the underling painter should also get to sign the work as well. How can you say it's your 'work' when you worked the least on the piece?Though at least the artist has a distinct style and can actually paint himself. So many of these artist studio artists now are talentless fuckwits who couldn't create anything without their more talented hired hands, like Jeff Koons. All that work for the most dull fucking ideas.
