Is there a Bob Ross style show but for portrait and figure paintings?
>>6584743joseph todorovitch's NMA course is like this for portrait painting. he has a nice voice, though it's more instructional than bob
>>6586588okay but have you ever tried to paint along with bob ross? it's very fucking easy.
>>6586683Yes, it is. Have you tried doing what he does from imagination like he does?
https://youtu.be/I2HDOkhv07c?list=PLBduE2gzDsjmtg_nSlXIhf_A1KHWIYxfOThis forger got his own show for 1 season before he died from lung problems. They were going to send him to prison but he got away with it by never officially forging the artists names on his works as someone else did and in the end he was too sick for them to bother locking him away.

Are Blast Furnace plants men or women to you? I think of them as Giant Neutral Wombats. You're driving along at night at 100 km/h and suddenly you're in a tree dead and the wombat walks it off.Pictured is the coking / quenching dump process. It looks like a short stack shitting cum into the sky.
>>6585700That was pretty hard, not gonna lie. I couldn’t figure out how to make the stacks coming out of her ass
>>6585720I guess that's difficult because you've captured the thrusting basis of a mill, but they sit like giant monsters at the edges of cities. Which is why I said wombats. Were they women I'd imagine them as a doggy style fat woman, eating men and shitting steel. Squat huge and devouring.The ecstasis in your shot isn't really present, they are interior, closed rather than open.
woman
Weird, I’ve worked at blast furnaces for a decade now, they are neither man nor woman they are suffering engines and I may never be truly happy again, lots of cool reference photos I’m too lazy to ever draw though
>>6586131As I said, I think of them as giant lazy demonic wombats that eat men and shit slag. They fart sulphur over my life. I love them because they are inhuman and have always been there hurting me.Otoh Arc furnaces are kawaii and smoldesu.
Thoughts on this book? Seeing the Chinese students in the other thread draw a still life for their university exam is making me realize I don't actually know anything about drawing. I've only done characters, and never a still life, and I'm thinking that this is holding me back on my ability to paint, compose, and depict various materials and textures.So... has anyone here worked through Harding's Lessons on Drawing?
>>6585128>It’s like that lady on youtube who spent 2 or 3 years doing Watts then vanished and came back with nothing much to show?which lady? the illustration lady on youtube? she's not a beg, she's decent and she works as a professional illustrator
>>6587095Becca Rand, I think. She did disappear for several years, but she posted recently, I see. Wish her the best, desu
>>6587099All she did was copy Watts and didn't apply any knowledge. I remember her buying an Asaro head but the work she showed even after getting it were just studies of Watts' Asaro head drawings.
>>6587099yea that's the one. her illustrations are fucking soulless, but she's good at drawing. and she seems like a nice person too.>>6585140>Even in Vilppu's private school, there are students who have been drawing for 10 years, taking classes with him for 10 years, who are still pre-beg.how dude? I don't believe this. is it possible for you to post their work? I firmly believe that unless you are retarded mentally, anyone can achieve int status. maybe these are wealthy dilettante trustfundies who never practice.
>>6587115I won't post their work, because i don't like doxxing people. But they exist :)

Is there an artist similar equivalent of the analogy in pic related or does the gardener vs architect analogy also work for artists?
>>6586606Those skeletons need to drink more water, that piss is too dark
>>6586353yeah romanticism vs neo classicism.impressionism vs academism.
>>6586353>gardeners don't plan or coordinate their gardens>gardeners don't have a specific sense of aesthetics or nutrition in mind>there isn't an entire industry around making sure gardens are beautiful and well-kept
>>6586912>pretending to not understand a basic conceptUnfortunately "seed planter" doesn't roll off the tongue
>>6586975That doesn't make any sense.If you're minimizing gardening as just throwing random seeds all over the ground, then "architects" just nail pieces of wood into the ground and call it a fence.
The second Comics and Random Art Battles (CRAB 2) tournament will decide (again) the fate of the multiverse. OCs from multiple image boards will be kidnapped by the Gamemaster, put into teams and take part in many extreme challenges to obtain a single wish, whatever it may be!Is your character up to it?[spoiler]A year ago in /co/ I organised the most successful OCs Tournament event with guests from various boards (20+). I think it's time for a sequel.How do I participate?Post your character and write that you are participating (one per author).Do I need to know what happened in the first part?Not really, but I'll do a recap at some point.Are they individual or group duels?Characters would sign up and, depending on the number, teams of 3, 4 or even 5 characters would be formed. Last year we had 4 teams of 5 characters.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

>west bad >china good I hate chinaboos
>>6582832huh, if you guys could get chips that make you better at things, and would immediately make you a better artist, would you?
hi schizo poster here, *inane question*
>>6584291chinaboo badwestaboo good I hate westabooboos
>>6583047based. Kind of same here. I was a loser when I had my hot gf with DD's. I fucked around a lot. When she broke with me(for another guy lol) I went to Uni and stared doing commissions. I started with cheap ones back then, but now I'm doing 450€ ones. I make more money than most people I went to HS and Uni with, which, lmao.
Drew some pics I had in my download folder in MS paint
was gonna hold off on posting this one, kinda shit
Could of posted it over there>>>/i/730890

>HALT>you've been found tracing images and have been accordingly sentenced to draw bike spokes for 100 hoursanyway thread, on stuff you've found hard to draw or stuff that's hard in general to draw
>>6580781That's not that hard, so long as you sequence properly. Draw the top layer first, then second, then third, then last, ez.Something harder would be if they were woven in between each other.
>>6582062>>6584672VVGH anon i kneel
>>6582062>>6584672exercise 19 and 20. Now imagine how good you'll be at 100.
>>6584672Nice work anon
Thanks for the encouragement guys. >>6584672Not my finest work. The amount of random detail in the rust and chipped paint was overwhelming, At least it sort of looks right it you squint.
What's a good way to practice picking colors by eyesight only?Ive been trying to replicate colors from images, artworks and IRL but my palette is always way off.
install the eyedropper module
stop being a fucking chud and just choose proper abstractions of reality. unironically watch sinix' ass, mouth and eye anatomy quicktip videos 10000 times until you de-chud and start having fun with colors instead of agonizing about what the "correct" color is like an INTP brained cuck.
>>6586422there is no correct color in art but if you're going for realism look any video on light refraction and reflection
>he compares himself to people who have drawn for longer than he did in the hopes of catching up or getting better than themWhy do /beg/s do this?
>>6584841I WANT TO BE THE BEST ARTIST, MOTHERFUCKER!! THE FACT THAT THERE ARE BETTER ARTISTS THAN ME IS AN INSULT OF THE HIGHEST DEGREE!! I LOVE BEING GOOD!!!!!!!! I WILL BECOME BETTER

>>6586126being bitter is the first step in the GMI path
I compare my art to AI art.
>>6584862I’ve always saw it as a passion thing. People who have started drawing late seem to have more drive and passion, because they can compare a time when they didn’t draw to a time they did and are still in the honeymoon phase meanwhile dudes who have been drawing forever are like old dudes who have been in a married relationship for decades. When I look at people who learned drawing later in life I wonder how it must feel because drawing probably pretty exciting, drawing just feels like something as normal as eating and shitting to me.
Isn’t there anything on that isn’t about BOXES?
>>6585430Yeah, form and shape.
>>6585430water, it's about blobs
How do I break out of the shackles of lineart? I want to start doing lineness, but can't exactly pinpoint how to do it. There's a few tutorials I found on YT but they don't explain the process very well. All I understand is that since there's no lines you have to do more separation of light/dark and colors with shadows, highlights and value must do a good contrast with everything. But how do you know what you highlight and what you don't?Any tips?
>>6582477Its souless
>>6582477Looks alright for someone who is just learning lineless painting could you be more specific on the problem. >>But how do you know what you highlight and what you don't?This is based on the light direction the object is highlighted from. You can pick the light direction and build the highlights on the object based on that.
>>6582477Oh my God. Watch some Marco Bucci anon.
OP you still about? Did you receive useful advice?
>>6582477Me after round 4 of chemo
Does anyone have Steven Zapata's Form From Imagination course?
Maybe
>>6586065If I couldn't already do it, I'd get the course.
should i get the course?
>>6586065Looks promising
>>65862552 paths lie before you.Choose the course, learn from a pretty damn good teacher.or choose nothing, teaching yourself, are you a good teacher of yourself?What will your art look like 6 months from now on each of these paths? Choose wisely.
So, how's your toyhou.se looking, anons?
>>6584908If you keep to yourself and set all of your characters to private, nobody is really going to bother you and it is an useful website for storing character art and the like. However, if what you want is to socialize, then I doubt that you are going to get along with any of the users there. In my 7 years there, I have only seen 3 or 4 males.
>>6584925Then is better for me to steer away anyway. Not a lot of female centric sites on the internet they can only be their female retarded self that doesn't get all political or is about social ladder stuff. I don't want to intrude and affect the culture with my BS.
other anons have said the same already but yeah, the social aspect of it sucks but its great for storing images/information about your characters. you can even private everything so you don't have to worry about anyone else seeing your stuff if you'd like
>>6584307i drew someone's oc for an invite 2 years ago and i haven't used the site since
