Any more pictures like this? Where it shows both the mannequin and the actual drawing?
>>8046154it's like contour lines, they are something you do to learn how forms work and fit together in 3d space.
>>8046154What difference does it make ? lol. The point is that you can use it to draw.

I just woke up and did this. Maybe a layer of deep blue next?

>>8046682so do I
>>8046674i see a person
can I ever be taken seriously as an artist if I draw kinky stuff like picrel for example?I wanna make serious comics and try and get published, but I also wanna start a twitter account and draw some borderline nsfw comic strips with anthro girls, orc girls, amazons, etc.If I wanna break into comics and make serious art, should I stay away from doing stuff like that? Not ever gonna draw nsfw, but I'll probably skirt the line if I make the account
>>8041733who is that btw, curious if I knew him
>>8036764>DC recently hired a guy for a Supergirl anthology that draws shota so I think you're finewho?

>>8034121I like your art. This is a really stupid question though. Just don't show the porn parts of your portfolio? What's the question here? >Never drawing true nsfw/skirting the lineThen why bother? Just draw your wholesome chungus comic then. The only person making it one choice or the other is you. Nagatoro was an incredibly popular piece of animeslop and the maker spent years drawing women fucking monkeys before that. That's not a racist comment. Lolis with actual chimps and baboons. And he made it. So??

>>8050857Drawing can be fun if you have motivation... without it ill agree.
>>8050877Most people doom scroll because it's addicting. It exploits your instincts to search for information that could be dangerous or lead to rewards. They don't actually enjoy it.
>>8050859idk how a space heater is fun during the summer but ig winter is approaching
*fixes all your problems*
that’s a good proposition, op. too bad the only things i do daily that are as overall net entertaining as drawing are online activities.if i turned off my internet though, i’d really wonder if i’d be ok, because the only people i heavily interact with irl have very unhealthy disorders to be around. y’know…now that i’m typing this out, i’m not sure why exactly i thought this differentiated it from my online social dynamics. lol, oh well. at least we’ve got a mixed culture here in our petri dish. i really came to post>i really am undisciplined. i should draw more. i should always be drawing more.
The general thread for Manga / manga-styled comic-making, manga-style illustration and related comic work. That said, everyone is welcome here.Support each other and talk about your work or the work of others that excites you. Inking, character design, paneling / layout, writing, planning, and other discussions are all welcome.Post resources, questions, in-progress pages, breakdowns of other works, etc. If a work is not yours, credit the maker (unless it's fucking obvious like a full page of One Piece or something).Thanks to everyone for making /mmg/ a level-headed and helpful place. Remember, drawing and making comics and manga are difficult endeavors, and we're all in this struggle together.Previous thread: >>8039964Some resources:/asg/, our stylistic sister-thread series for those focused more on illustration >>>/ic/asgBooks:Understanding Comicshttps://e-hentai.org/g/2042453/83e7da6ed0/Making Comicshttps://annas-archive.org/md5/d55168f7579c1e23275d1fc9f0a2255dComment too long.

>>8054105If you go full online mode then you can just post a double spread onto a dedicated webpage whenever you want to. The issues that you are complaining about only ever arise when you DO decide to print out a physical copy, and if you really care the solution for that would be just splitting the image down the middle and you just shift/shimmy the two images to their corresponding side and just take into account the spine.You dont gotta "larp" as a real mangaka if you ever actually make the fucking comic you are gonna end up doing the exact same steps. Trust me if you ever make the double spread as long as the dimensions are in line with actual book dimensions it'll print fine if you ever decided to print.>>8054378Didnt help that most of this thread was fucking schizos going back and forth and anons taking the bait

>>8054536I never used Bristol paper so I don't know if it's fine. Just because it works for you doesn't mean it works for everyone.I just ordered some paper. Not sure what your fucking problem is. I don't want to draw on copy machine paper because that's the only smooth paper I have right now.
Personally, I think it looks best when graffiti artists use their skill to drawing interesting looking characters like these, I hate stuff like kitschy murals and names being tagged in uninteresting ways which seems to be a majority of graffiti these days.
>>8045745I'd argue even on your own wall it is an attack on your senses. After all city planning doesn't allow architects to go wild either: it has to fit the vibe of the street.
When it's soul it's SOVL
>>8046353thats a short ceiling
>>8045734Murals are the lamest kind of graffiti, at least tags can be creative are made by thrillseekers. Meanwhile murals are pure kitsch that never get erased cause they’re seen as deep or some shit.
>>8048982Imagine being a building owner and finding out someone sprayed fentanyl floyd on it, if I was owning a building on the graffiti looked like >>8045734I wouldn’t mind but a mural would be the last kind of graffiti I’d fucking want on it. Even worse is that you can’t erase it or else you’re 'racist'.
Are there any good sites for me to post my art as an amatuer artist so that more people will see my art? I had a deviantart but sadly it got hacked... I also have a personal site but not many see it...
>>8050839palantir can't cuck this fecal platform fast enough
>>8050840the get good and go use the sites that everybody uses
>>8050842discord is trash but op wants attention, where else are you going to get it other than a server surrounded by other begs
discord servers are all dead as well for the same reason every platform is deadpeople are deathly afraid to speak and everyone is just a shark waiting to smell cringe (even breathing is considered cringe now)
>>8050834See that question mark? That could have been your art.
this might be the worst fucking art take ever
>>8050175What is so insane about the applying the concept of "don't like, don't read" to fanart? Why raise your cortisol lingering on a piece of fanart that you do not like, instead of moving on?
>>8036126Why has this thread not been deleted? I've had much more innocent posts deleted for "not user's own artwork". Why are the jannies so inconsistent?
>>8050424alot of idiots and bots on this board wanna continue the idea that there is hostility in literally anything against them or that the internet should be an exclusive club when that died a decade and a half ago. It's just curmudgeonly old people bullshit but somehow only in a ten year age bracket difference.
>>8049741It is not just thin skin, having this reputation can be damaging to your account, these types can band together to mass report you and pick apart your online career from being possible if you accidentally piss them off to badI guess ngmis will never have to worry about this

>>8053189thanks anon I wanted to know if there is a good tutorial regarding digital drawing with procreate or stuff I should definitely checkout that could make my life much easier as a beginner
>made a Twitter account for my art in late August>tried posting one piece of art every day with one relevant tag >zero likes retweets comments or views after a week>read that new accounts are shadowbanned and to stop posting for a while to lift it>after three weeks finally get notified that my account is now visible to people>post new art with a tag and finally overjoyed to get 3 likes and to show up in searches>see some nice art later while scrolling my feed >open up the artist's profile and they have ~10 images with 1k+ likes each and a couple with 5-10x that>none of them are tagged and they're all OC>account created September 2026Genuinely how does this shit workHow do you get so many art posts to get that reach on OC art with no tags, in the first three weeks when you're supposed to be shadowbanned
>>8047144This pretty much started happening during the early 2010s and you wanna know what started this?Remember Candid? That app that literally tried to dox you and deemed you toxic?

>>8047563NTA but what sites are we talking about? I could believe this in like 2016 but after most of the troons migrated to bluesky, twitter is like 70% based and redpilled accounts now
is not using your own art as your icon a bad idea for social media? >who the fuck caresme
>>8043785I once bought the stupid bluechekmark on one of my accounts and i got no real boost, and the boost was just bots anyways, you faggot.
>>8044042>should I build real world career skillsDo you think it's still 1990 grandpa? Making a living off art and getting a job that not only pays enough to live but also keep you hired until you retire AND provide enough for an actual retirement have the same odds of success.
Specifically about learning about the concept of drawing. It's currently work in progress. What do you guys think?

>>8050121I understand and empathize with having difficulty evaluating the quality of your own work, but SURELY these people should have enough self-awareness to know that they aren't qualified to teach others, right?

>>8053984>Translated"Translated" is a strong word. I watched a few. And:1. I don't think the texts make sense.2. They skipped a lot of the lesson. Gaps everywhere. I kinda regret downloading the courses.
>>8054143How are you supposed to learn from Nekojira's course if you don't know the Chinese required to take Krenz's courses first?
>>8054143>1. I don't think the texts make sense.>2. They skipped a lot of the lesson. Gaps everywhere.IM 100% SURE YOU ARE MIXING THE SUBS
>>8054181I did Nekojira and learned a lot, you don't need to do Krenz, you just need a brain.That said while I love Nekojira, I personally find his coloring/rendering style atrocious. Like come on, re-doing your lineart 3 times in a row, stacking up 20 layers just to color your character. That shit killed my soul.I'm hoping we eventually get >>8049497.
>"noooo anon, you have to understand! this horse is GOOD because of its imperfections. its crude construction and horrible execution are LE SOVL. depicting something the way it would look in real life in SOVLLESS! art is about FEELINGS, not skill! there's no value in art that's made with attention to detail and accuracy! you should become a CAD engineer or doctor if you care about mechanical or anatomical accuracy! there's no place for autists in the art community!"i know this is /ic/'s consensus, but is this really how artists in general think? i feel like the only technician in a room full of performers.
>>8050147sure. i have a few examples herehttps://itaku.ee/images/1315188https://itaku.ee/images/1317896https://itaku.ee/images/1256622https://itaku.ee/images/1348257floor plans are all mine, but the exteriors are existing 3D models or orthographic drawings. they're not the best (you should see TattooedHobbit on DeviantArt, they're the best!), but i try really hard to measure stuff out.i'm getting my next project mapped out in 3D so i can make the interiors perfect instead of me just trying to guess based on external features.
>>8050151zoz
What in the ever-loving fuck are you talking about? Just draw, faggot.
>>8050151perspective is fucked up, which is strange considering people that are so anal about technical skill are usually hyuge on perspective
>>8050142>but is this really how artists in general think?Well, there's a lot of terribly shit 'art' out there, but I think either something has appeal, or it doesn't. The more technically proficient an artist is, the more likely they are to draw something appealing, but that doesn't mean it's the case 100% of the time.That horse, for example, as goofy and ugly as it is -- does have a charm to it.I would pay for a poster or painting of it, but I would find it charming as a character in a comic.So I suppose appeal is also dependent on context as well.
Why are pro mangakas or even just high/master tier social media artists who only got published/started posting at 30+ that have actually great art skills so hard to find? The only exception is basically just Sako Toshio
Here the art skill of two other notorious mangakas who started drawing late in their late 20s and got published 30+ for comparison btw. It's fucking scary that 90% of western social media artists mogs them purely on the art skills side of thing
>>8049841>it’s never too late to startbiggest lie in the west
>>8050080And yet they're famous mangaka who actually produce something of value instead of chasing engagement on social media from deranged coomers from third world shitholes>>8050084You'll die having produced nothing of value with that defeatist attitude
>>8050092I can understand Koji Mouri, but Okamoto's writing is even worse than his art lol
