Any good real life reference to design hot and cool black characters/ characters with dark skin tone? I'm having trouble finding pictures with varied hairstyles.
>>7773915If you are trying to stylize a black character, it is easy to make everything appealing. Just search for an image and try translating the stuff in your style, but the only thing is the fucking black nose, no matter how you represent it, it looks horrible and can ruin an entire face. Hope you luck anon
>>7773915>I'm having trouble finding pictures with varied hairstyles.I got you anon, As a black guy myself Let me put u on sum gameYou can lookup braids styles for men/women on things like Pinterest (They will give you a plethora of various styles that you can reference)>Dread styles (please no killmonger dreads, nobody rocks those irl)>FadesComment too long.

>>7774010He wrote black/brown which means either one or another and her skin is clearly brown. How did you interpret it as him claiming she is negroid?
>>7774007Why did they give her non-symmetrical lips. Looks so bizarre and alien
>>7775913>>7775904Nice

don't turn this into an east vs west threadi've read manga my whole life and I recently gave a chance to some 90s capeshit. i specially enjoyed early Spawn and Weapon X.even if i'm not the target, i find it so sad whole cultural phenomenons follow the cycle of life and can lose their luster so hard (stuff still gets made obviously)the disappearance of the culture around it is what gets me the most, a lot of it being pre early-globalization era, it felt pretty distinctively american in a way i don't feel anymore out of anything, specially the way they'd interact with fans through mail, i don't know how to explain it.it's pretty similar to how i feel about early 2000s doujin culture and desu it could happen to any hobby or artform i am enjoying right now, during my lifetimemaybe i'm just whining about the loss of subculturecapeshitbros i get you
>>7770720>multiverse shitOne of the worst things to ever happen
>>7772517scale is a big part of it, since newspapers went digital and physical newsprint demand went down, the next cheapest option is actually a higher quality paper. the glossy paper is still used for magazines/brochures/corporate documents around the world. if you mess around on mixam or any of the self printing sites you see how the cheapest option is going to get you something like a corporate document but that really doesn't gel well with a comic/manga look. the japs can get away with it in Jump because they're repulping all their paper and their print runs go into the hundred of thousands (if not millions). we just don't have that scale anymore in the US.
>>7765648sao was the death of anime ngl.... sloooopppp
>>7765648feels like almost no one talks about just how much COVID killed subcultures and the internet. i swear, i know was younger and all, but i do not remember nerdy shit and online culture being THIS normie. like ofc it was big, but after covid and everyone was forced to be online, online culture just BECAME culture. alternative cultures like metal and punk got hit especially hard. genuinely depresses me whats been happening to this stuff
>>7778284I don't think it was actually COVID, it happened well before that. Millennial subcultures got corpo colonized long before that. Corporatization meant that people could easily buy into aesthetics without adhering to an actual culture. The nail in the coffin was the "be yourself" culture of the 2010s when people were encouraged to go out and buy up these aesthetics to create their personality, as in a longterm knockon effect culminated in the current day nihilist clout chasing where everyone is desperate to min-max their perceived social standing at any cost.A lot of the current-day issues can be traced back directly to tricking early-GenZ into thinking that they were special snowflakes destined to rule the world, and giving them a catalogue of fun personalities to buy to keep up that illusion. It's the American phenomenon of temporarily embarrassed millionaire turned up to 11 and exported to the world.

>>7781244You are not as strong as i am, kiddo.
>>7781249>for a little bit of wood chips and glue, is bullshit.is it bullshit if you're complaining about not being able to find wood chips and glue that satisfy your quality standards, that you'd have to spend weeks treating anyway?
>>7781249I just checked a local hardware store, 5mm is thick enough and if you let them cut it you can return home with 8 palettes of 60cm by 60cm for only 20 euros.Heck I would probably use the spare wood as a painting surface.Honestly not sure what your issue is.

do you guys not realize you hit the bump limit a while ago
>>7782284It's hard to say it's cute.It's offputting to not be able to tell where eyes are looking. People determine this primarily by seeing the whites of the eyes. I made a really crappy edit to show what I mean. If it doesn't work with your style you could use the pupils or something else.

Not sure if this belongs here, but how would one go for commissioning an hentai manga from an circle or artist? I already have the fandom, story/plot & characters planned out, and now I wanna go onto making it into a reality. But the process I'm wondering on, like where would I find specific artists/niches? Pixiv? Elsewhere? And what about costs?Looking specifically for artists who specialize in ryona/reverse ryona as well as guro, (also not sure if there is much for the Pokemon-side, especially for those topics) gritty artstyle would be nice too
>>7777927I was thinking of offering myself to do some Pages free just for practice but then I searched what Ryona and Guro meant... I hope you get better
>>7777927what the fuck is reverse ryona?
>>7778032The same as ryona, but for instances where the subject in question is male
>>7777927I hope you're prepared to pay out the ass. Porn tax + furry tax + niche fetish tax, all of those things add up. Best thing to do would be to find some artists you like and message them on social media. Deepl/chatgpt are good enough now that you don't need to worry about any language barrier.
>>7777927>but how would one go for commissioning an hentai manga from an circle or artist?Contacting them directly. Find someone you like on twitter or whatever they use, and message them or leave them a comment asking about it. If they have an e-mail, use that. Chances are almost nobody will be interested though, and if they were the price would be steep.

Was the the engineer-ification of art a good or bad thing?
>>7772925Cyberpunk basically hasn't changed since Neuromancer.
>>7773128No, it wouldn't. It's fiction, not reality. Coherence is different, like creating something coherent and believable, like a T-100 Terminator, versus creating something technically realistic, like a slow, boring robot like Tesla or Chinese companies. The absurdity would be creating a robot without joints that could move.
>>7771802lol, nice
>>7773315>I ruined creative freedomWell fuck you I guess
>>7772919i assume being able to comprehend how mechanisms work probably helps in conceptualising new sci-fi ones even if they're not based in reality, still though doing an entire engineering degree for art sounds pointless
Am I the only one who wants to use less digital tools and start to use IRL mediums to paint and draw because of this whole AI stuff?
>>7773384>because of this whole AI stuff?that's a stupid reason to go trad. a good one is that it's a lot more fun
>>7773384I’ve just always preferred pencil and paper over tablet ever since I first started. Even before AI
could it be that the digital fags are a loud minority?
>>7773397I wasn't talking about digital as well. >>7773395Yeah, it really wouldn't matter anyways, Make art for you.

>You dont need skills to be successfulFuck Sonichu, is there a bigger blackpill then touhou? The art is literally just scribbles
>>7776223Everything in the gif was drawn by him. It was only from [S] Make Her Pay onward that he'd get guest artists to draw shit for him, but that was exclusively for the flashesit was rare for him to get other artists just for panels
>>7764685Professional movie storyboard artists draw like picrel because their job is about telling a story visually not drawing well.>INB4>They can draw but choose not toSome are like this, others just can't draw, just look at their interviews on Youtube, they even admit it, that art career is the ultimate blackpill, most SB artists are (attractive) women nowadays to boot...

>>7777122i kinda get it, just the sorta OC stigma thats been online since the 2010s. i think theres a certain pressure in their mind aswell to make the characters more of a 'surprise' and more intertwined with the game instead of them feeling like OCs that happen to be in a game. would mario feel the same if he was just nintendos mascot and suddenly had a game?
>>7777019creating a character design=/= story telling abilities. nooot hard to understand
>>7777134>OC stigma that's been online since the 2010sdeviantART hasn't been this relevant (where this dumb gay retarded stigma originated), just do what you know, at worst you're simply going to improvise and fix it later in the future
>>7777177dawg im just saying theres some level of stigma around it, even if no one cares anymore theres still that idea of it. why you over reacting
omg nobody cares if you dont have a 10000 page novel nobody was going to read anyways lmfao the only people who keep trying to beat artists over the head over muh ocs need le deep lore bullshit are literal autists
It feels like I'm hugging the /int/ wall and all it takes is for me to stop winging it half the time. My honest to god biggest issue that I can see for myself is moving objects in 3D space and how they overlap with eachother (and folds but that's just practice). Something along the lines of foreshortening but with multiple objects or simply making several elements behind eachother look like something in actual 3d space.Did anything help you fellas for it to finally click? Or do you see any more issues with my lack of drawing prowess?
