Damn that's not even bad

Some Chinese students in my art class are getting good at anatomy insanely fast. One of them told me they draw human figures, run them through AI for critiques, redraw them, get more critiques, redraw them, etc., for hours at a time. I didn't think it was possible to make progress so fast, but apparently if the feedback loop is tight enough, you can. Should I give this approach a shot?

Many of the AI have been retooled to always disagree at some point in their messages now but default, because too many people used them as therapist-girlfriends and allowed the AI to convince them to commit suicide. The fix is basically when the AI takes in even slightly ambiguous user input, it has boilerplate response templates like "yes, but" over and over. So you could actually upload good work to an AI and it will force itself to call it shit, kinda like the threads here LMAO.

not really, you cant draw anything substantial in 10 minutes. thats like opening a pizza box and taking one bite of a pizza and closing it. Doomscrolling actually gives you knowledge and keeps you up to date about the world, and there is a chance you grow and become a better person out of it.

I dont draw very often, when I do it never turns out to well, but it always takes up free time that i would normal use to indulge in self destructive behaviors. I do enjoy drawing and would like to get better but i enjoy it most for the enjoyment i get while doing it and not the product. in the moment when I finish I will look at my "masterpiece" and think it looks good but then sleep on it and think it looks horrible the next day and cringe over what i drew. this is my attempt at putting what I drew out there just to share it.

For the millionth time, “just draw” does not mean “close your eyes, move the pencil across the paper at random, let Jesus take the wheel”. It means “just explore and do your own thing, if something seems fun or interesting then do that”
>>
>>8017206
"Just draw" is typically a response to people who needlessly hem and haw over the idea of drawing rather than just getting to it. Those people will typically benefit more from practice than they will from any discussion of their hesitancy. It is intentionally terse advice for a reason.

Is Loomis still considered the go-to for learning simplified anatomy? I really need to improve my ability to draw anatomy from imagination, but I'm not sure where to start nowadays. There are so many resources out there that I'm having a hard time figuring out which approach would be most useful. Are there any good 'in depth' video courses on this, so I can watch it while drawing?

same anon you're replying to here. just took a peek at the tenten book. I'd say, yeah. if you're intermediate and advanced I still would say the taco books are a worthy investment for quick reference, like something to flip thru and pick up for a few seconds since it is very concise and self-explanatory since there is less description, but tenten book looks more in depth and more focused on broader stylization whereas taco is more for strictly anime-style only
>>
>>8010747
>I don't watch courses or read books
That's pretty gay, not gonna lie, anon. Books are by far the best method of learning, as courses are generally slower and less concise by nature. Courses are only advantageous when done live together with other, like in a classroom, which gives room for interactive learning through a teacher that knows the ins and outs of the subject.

Still, if you really need a good course, Richard Smitheman's two part series on figure drawing on youtube is completely, and it's good.

>>
>>8017253
Generally, you shouldn't make a new thread just for a single drawing, since there are already existing threads for sharing art and asking for critiques. Look through the catalog and find one that fits.

Also, if you're looking for critique, I suggest asking about specific things you want feedback on.
>>
so i should look for threads that are about the theme of the board intstead of making one about myself?
>>
>>8017260
Yeah, basically. There are threads specifically meant for people to share their art in, and those threads are mostly dedicated to one specific subject matter, like beginner art and figure art and stuff.

Maybe these threads could fit you:

Procreate has these tiny really fucking weird design choices that people can live with because everything else works. Dreams just happens to be built upn a weird design choice and this hurts everything else.
WHy they didn't go "Set a big ass, finite canvas and then you can set a "camera" at your desired screen size" rather than building everything over the endless canvas and deciding that it was worth it not having traditional selection tools or marrying brush resolution to zoom

I agree that Dreams had some terrible design decisions at launch. But I recently cracked it open on a whim and my god, they actually fixed it. All those things you mentioned? Yeah, that's how it works now. The canvas. The selection tools. The brush resolution. Like...I might actually start using it now.

Notice how no better alternative was recommended instead.

I like hxh because even the D-listers in the show look more unique than any design jjk puts out.

Jjk is not bad, but you gotta admit it's lacking in the design department, even compared to similar shows in its caliber.

what does that even mean? what prompted you to even make this thread?
was someone beating you over the head about "design variety"? did some anon tell you all your OCs look alike? you're framing this like some larger conversation that you're gained some interesting new insight into
outside of some exceptions, I suppose, like all anime looking the same, same face syndrome, akira toriyama designs, the bean mouth thing, the dreamworks face, maybe

This is a page from a comic by Spumco, John K.'s art studio. It's a collaboration between mutiple pretty great artists, but in the end, it seems to be worse than what they could do individuallly.
