Post your first few drawings from this year and the last few ones.What did you learn this year? What do you want to get better at next year?Did your style and taste change?
>>7820892Thanks, and yeah, consistency really is such a powerful ally. Just showing up (almost) every day, and not letting yourself get caught up in doubt does wonders. Honestly has helped me in other areas of life as well>keep it up!You too. Wagmi!
>>7812551Realism is boring. But i guess man were all fated to follow their creator
>>7821116asian women arent real thoughbeit. i refuse to believe they are
>>7812551Just recently got back to drawing after more than a year off. The main goal now is being able to control my art's expressiveness and "play with the viewer's psychology." Also, trying to capture people's likeness accurately in different angles is a huge one. I don't know if my style changed much, it's still very low energy and not very expressive when I look at it
>>7812551PC shat itself during summer so any files i didn't have uploaded somewhere is gone, so it starts from mid 2025 instead of january>What did you learn this year?Rendering, went from something I hated to something I enjoy quite a bit>What do you want to get better at next year?Drawing, specifcally at weird angles. Also backgrounds.>Did your style and taste change?Taste nah probably not, I don't think style really changed either
>>7819753
>>7819753are you allowed to post this? Or can you only post it if its satire? I know you guys have some nutty laws
>>7819713Pretty cool OP
>>7819743this one looks like AI lol
>>7819768its not a swastika. i think swastika depiction is one of the things that is dangerous to do, but in art, i'm not sure how it could be forbidden. they show nazi documentaries all day every day here, to push in that guilt complex (or maybe inspire??) and you see the hakenkreuz all the time obviously. and i typed out swastika before, which is wrong, its a hakenkreuz. the swastika is the original version and i think its important to differentiate, because its an old symbol. you see it every day when you look up the sky, radiating above our heads.
They have super high standards and they even reject pro artist, if they accept your artwork and don’t delete it that means you made it.
>>7812703honestly i just want one person to repost my art somewhere online. my standards are a bit lower than yours
>>7818094>posts AI assisted contentGuess people are starting to accept the use of sloppa lol
>>7812703>Max amount of likes on my fetish account in Twitter is 100 and 12 reposts>200 followersAm I GMI?
>>7821777no
>>7812834And so are subplebbit mods, what's your point?
>just draw! Draw what >Draw whatever interests you! I'm not good enough to even begin drawing what I want. Not even badly >Just draw it no matter how bad! This is like telling a legless man to run no matter how bad
>>7820974go ahead, refute 'go draw' fagtron
>>7811721begin with a stickman and then draw its surroundings whatever comes to mind dont care about the quality
>>7811721here you go: https://www.scribd.com/document/608834418/Gitgud-at-Illustration-Guide-for-Anonshttps://prrb.tumblr.com/post/30177790499/shrimp-methodi found these to be pretty useful, the tumblr one is just a shorter version of the book, the gist of it is:>find pictures/art/designs/whatever you like>trace/copy/study le art you like>???>profit >>7811793pic related, your setting up yourself for failure with that kind of thinking
>>7820964HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA good job putting this across
>>7821027>is picrel an analogy of AI>>7820964Ever heard of dyspraxia?
How you guys draw NSFW all the time and concetrate on what youre doing? Ive never drawn anything erotic and Im doing my first serious attempt at it and my dick wont let me fucking concentrate, wanking before starting the drawing process helps but doing that every single time I want to work on this thing that will take me a while because Im a noob at it and Im learning the process is very fucking annoying.
everyday /ic/ reminds me that coomers are retarded
>>7818512>Instead of watching videos, pics and goon-scrolling non stopBut I need those for reference material
>>7809779Finish your first NSFW piece. All you'll see are the errors you've makd and it'll no longer make you horny.
>>7821016This thread has been TRVTH NVKED
>>7809805Low t faggot, you are a troon as well
I draw in MS Paint, with mouse only
>>7821636does this actually work if you're constipated qm?qm

schizo to schizo communication
>>7825952Wait...This is the dude who accused me of bullying him a few years ago out of nowhere (I even confused him with ramune). No idea what that was all about, but I hope he's doing better now.
>>7825772Heyy
what was that all about
Has anyone else been asked to tattoo people? I am an academic fundies zealot, but I have like 5 people who want me to tattoo them, and one has even brought over a tattoo machine. The only issue is I'm very intimidated as I am used to drawing detailed portrait and landscape slop. I know for something to be tattooable it has to be simple and have certain line qualities. How does one practice? Have any other anons done tattoos?
I got paid 50$ to design one once, it was dogshit, the guy still put it on his body tho
>>7821398Go to a local butcher and get some pig skin. Try on that first.I've designed a few dozens of tattoos for cash and I still don't get the appeal of turning your body into a sketchbook and ruining your immune system.There's something about the generally low IQ of people who have tattoos that makes them abhorrent. 99% of their tattoos fall into one of those categories:>An ad for a franchise they grew up with>OMG MY CUTE BABY/MY BOYFRIEND/GIRLFRIEND>Whatever's trendy right now (it won't be trendy in 3 weeks)>Ideology/religious bullshit - those get super funny when the person has a change of heart>Love Dream Smile - or some other "2deep4u" text. Double the retard points if it's in a language they can't speak.
>using referencesThis is allowed and perfectly valid. Anyone who disagrees is a colossal retard.>tracingThis is ONLY allowed for studies, aka trying to learn or figure something out. Tracing a piece to publish online as "work" is FRAUDULENT and NOT A DISPLAY OF SKILL.These are the FACTS and they CANNOT BE DISPUTED. Sorry, frauds.
>tracing>study
>>7812811This is how I found out Gene Simmons son made a comic.
>>7812663tracing is only valid if you're trying to get the hang of your toolsyou're wasting everybody's time after that
>>7812663tracing is for thiefs i agreeim personally trying to learn by copying but not sure how else to benefit other than remembering certain ways an artist draws a particular thing
if youre not tracing its not art
Are the people running art conventions completely morons unable to tell AI from non AI?
>wah wah people won't pay me>heh we're replacing you, chud
>>7820845>"Customers have a right to making informed purchases that's in-line with their morals">"Heh, Employees have to do what their Boss asks of them. Did you think of that?"Are you retarded? What's your argument got to do with what that anon was discussing?To be this stupid, and to act so smug while being so...>"N-no, what I meant was..."And? You didn't give a shit what the other person meant, now did you?
>>7815620I think it's reasonable to sell ai art provided you also include the model version and the full page of prompts so the buyer could recreate 80% of it on their own. You're essentially selling pure Idea and offload the technicalities to ai.But we all know these scummy, smelly, brown Jeets won't do this, they'll lie and scam instead. And run the whole industry into the ground like they did with crypto and NFT. The frog and the scorpion, etc.
>>7815661>>So they're just retarded? They like how it looks but they don't like AI so now they don't like how it looks anymore lolI hate to be that guy but it's like how people boycott products made by a certain nation/ vegans don't use animal products. the Quality is irrelevant, it's the principle.
artist alleys are grim
Posting famous works and lesser known works of the Renaissance. Some of you will probably have seen most of these already, but it might be good to look at them or study them.

He really says something about society.
>>7821110These jpegs look VERY expensive
>>7821131I think Beeple said he went with NFTs to prove that you are allowed to own and buy digital art, because he thinks digital art is as valid as "traditional art" in physical painting and drawing.
>>7821138That whole thing was a scam and everyone knows it, that excuse is just a false flag. Digital art will never be as valuable as traditional art and I say this as someone that likes digital art
>>7821222that's not what "false flag" means, retard
that was such a strange time. I had friends and family telling me to make nfts.
His name is Bean. Like coffee bean. What do we think

>>7820474Nice
>>7820474Time to throw him in the grinder, like a coffee bean. What do we think?
