>be me>aspiring self-learn artist>sign myself up for some free art projects for experience >writer put me with another artist to work on a comic project>bro claim to have a degree in sequential arts>but the rendered art I see from them is that of similar to beginners artists on deviantart who just started drawing for 1-2 years>anatomy all wrong + ass lightings>colour value is barely distinguishable>airbrush black shadow type shit>generally, it looks flat cuz they don’t seem to have knowledge on light and colourI don’t have an art degree. But you can’t possibly spend 3 yrs and $50k in art school just for ur art to look like this. I have no intention of shaming new artists, but I need to know whether this person is legit as they boast to me abt their degree.
I majored in art, and yeah a lot of art majors can’t draw. This anon highlights the issue >>7826148. I was lucky enough to have one teacher that was a bit more old fashioned and actually taught shit. Outside of the classes I took with that one teacher it was all these super restrictive bs assignments and a lot of reading and writing. Honestly I spent more time writing and read more about art than I did actually making art. On top of all that I had my non art classes and a job so I had almost no time to draw. I was pretty beg throughout my college years and didn’t actually start improving until I graduated. So I can definitely understand how an art major wouldn’t be very good at art>>7826269It’s charming, but kinda hard to gauge the skill level from doodles. Though being able to evaluate your own art is a skill that you need to develop if you want to improve. I’m curious as to what the other person’s art looks like now. Are you planning on completing this project? You’re not getting paid and you’re probably not gonna gain much experience by working with someone below your skill level
>>7827625Post your work. I want to see how much you've improved
>>7826278Because they were retarded enough to fall for the college meme and got eternally indebted
>>7826140Hitler thought he was being gatekept from some kind of art knowledge but little did he know the Jews had no knowledge to give. Fuck kikes.
>>7826278if you lived here, you'd be instantly destroyed by drugs and fast food or some other first-level vice. You would not last very long so stay in your lane. We're the ones on hard mode, all you have to worry about is life or death, like an animal. We have more complex problems that are PAST that.
Observation drawing = working on your art > fundamentals >>>>>> grindingIs this the current meta for learning?
>>7833219how do I learn without drawing or grinding?
>>7833220Dunno
How do you deal with cold hands when drawing, I can barely move my fingers and it sucks
eat some liver silly. my art skills are directly related to how much liver I ate that week
>>7832754If you're touching a cold surface or surrounded by low temperature air, it's obvious that either makes you cooler. But it's easy to forget that your body also radiates heat away also.If you're near a large cold surface, like a single-glazed window, even though the room air temperature is 70'F, you can feel as if you were in a 50'F room. This effect is increased by a colder window (or poorly-insulated wall) surface, a larger cold surface, or proximity to the cold surface.Simply, if you're sitting near a large window, hang a curtain. Translucent is fine. Or, move away from windows. At least turn your back to it so that your hands do not "see" the cold surface of the window.

>>7832754sounds like a circulation issueyou need to start exercising
>>7832754It happens to me during the winter sometimes . Sometimes I put my hands in hot water
How do you get this from just 5 colors bros?
>>7822164Damn boy. Could you give us an insight on your painting process?
>>7819523some anons are of darker disposition
>>7818813blending...
>>7818813Looks like light source from above, dark shadows from the fingers (the red saturation on the finger tips is because fingers become a bit translucent from the light behind), palm gets direct light?Idk I'll do a study in a few days when I'm not working
>>7819523post more feet

Does anyone know her name or the name of the pack?
Not looking for a pack but does anyone have a basic male and female front/profile/back ref? Trying to do some proportion studies.
>>7830969Male references are good for practicing angles. Female references are good for gestures and curves. To be an artist, you understand both uses.
>>7831375Lmao, I have been looking and asking for years now. I don't think it exists. If you search on zlib, they have chinese collection of michaelangelo etc.

>>7831461It’s just the underpaint guy advertising on 4chan knowing the courses are not leaked. Didn’t even bother to pretend-leak some of the courses as free samples.
>>7831391>it's a virusNice try, Marc.>>7831433>>7831448I'm pretty sure that Marc never updated this course besides the number in the title, so even if it says it's the 2020 version, it's actually the 2018 version.>>7831467Lmao
>>7831549coursebro relic fine basics but current marc mogs it hard
we are SOOO lonely we start to imagine Marc and Proko always with us in this board
>>7831579>we are SOOO lonely we start to imagine Proko always with us in this boardHe used to be pretty active around here a few years ago, he's here in 2017~2019, and I know that SakimiChan used to browse /ic/ in 2015, she linked to this board on her DeviantArt back then, IIRC CuteSexyRobbuts used to lurk here, and the CEO of Tonari Animation got his start on /ic/ he said so in an anime interview, so don't assume it's just a meme, or delusion, there's also a bunch of AAA concept artists that started here but meh.#Break#Anons, do any of you guys know about a course focused on the rotation of the human body? I wanna draw fanart characters from all angles like they're a 3D model.

>>7832251Another try.I had drawn the face too big in the last drawing and ended up overcompensating this time.
>>7832251>>7832921Be aware of and keep in mind the side plane of the head when drawing faces at angles like this. There is usually a noticeable plane shift when the front and side of the head meet so you can't just use the same brow curve for the entirety of the cranium for these angles. Biggest symptom of this is misplacement of features like the eyes and especially ears.
>>7832101I haven't been here for 3+ years so yea kind of. I know some of the fundamentals but I never tried to draw anime properly. I don't know how you would go about studying this efficiently.Is there something like Morpho but for anime heads? Different type of faces, ages, hairstyles, emotions with a little bit of commentary? Simplified for retention. Something I kind just grind without having to gather thousands of references myself.
>>7832921try doing a trace over the drawing before you draw it
I got a drawing pad, was just messing around with a pen and didn't really get a art education apart from university which they just taught me to critique Jesus piss tank or vag-flowers and feminism but I am bored. I now have unrealistic goals lol.>Light inspirations from images online >Mainly sketched>My attempt to put together in my mind on screen or paperUsed krita and a sketch pad, idc if I post it here, just thought the idea atleast was ok, maybe get the fundies down and practice getting used to the program
ok

>>7829305too many lines, too many.you need to use less lines.learn to use less lines to express more.where you need more weight, use other brushes.try to wean away from chicken scratch and lines, since lines are meant to represent sharp shadows.instead learn to work with values (search on yt)
>>7833151This is great advice. Just keep practicing and over time you'll get more confidence, OP! Always remember you have Ctrl+Z.
You have to be physically japanese to make it look like this
>>7826802very cute
>>7827533kind of look like akebi-chan's art style
>>7828168Sorry, I only speak with {macro && micro} God.If you want, you can listen to our conversation, by the way.
If that is the case I will simply physically become Japanese.
>>7826802AI can make it look like that, and AI doesn't have a soul, so are you saying that japs are souless, and thats why they're the onlyone that can acheive such a souless look?kind of mean, arentcha?>inb4 pyw
Not a single /ic/ user can do perspective and you can't prove me wrong
>>7832963I’m not trolling. >>7832911 It looks bad.
>>7833059I agree.
>>7832911anon, some of us are fighting demons, doing perspective is only useful if it helps us win.
>>7832911Most mid ic users can do perspective. You probably meant to say that they can't do perspective at a professional level.
>>7833005Envy is a bitch.
What is the current workflow of concept artists like now? Did they stop with photobashing and 3d? I don't see any concept art dude talking about their process on social media anymore for some reason
>>7832783poo in the loo
A lot more 3d usage now than 10 years ago for sure but aside from specific institutional knowledge, the workflow hasn't changed that much
>>7832874They use ai Painting, tracing, drawing over it, etc...
If you wanna be real and speak without throwing a tantrum, AI is excellent for trying out visual styles and quirks. 3D to quickly test out cool shots and compositions.
>>7832874Well, we also don't see many people talking about getting into the 'AAA' video game industry, or talking about getting a studio animation job these days either - the market is going through upheavals and it makes these jobs very unstable at the moment; it's a good thing that no one is advocating for these jobs when the youth are just likely to be fired from them.It might also be because being a Concept artist and using AI is just... not glamorous in anyway... people get into the job because they like drawing, so to have drawings generated is probably just a massive turn off.
Did Ruan Jia fall off?
>>7833055Was going to say what >>7833084 said. His backgrounds and parts of paintings look like they were pasted in but not fully merged to a whole scene giving it a weird fake feeling. Its still good of course but come on, its not as perfect as you state.
>>7833055good job moving the goalpost retard>get on Craig's levelhe tried to copy sargent and failed utterly, theres way better artists than Mullins. he had to retire early because he stopped getting jobstry harder retard, jaime passed him a long time ago
>>7833084he once told me that his computer was too slow to work a whole image at the full resolution he wanted to paint at for details, so he would cut sections out, resize them, paint, then paste back in and shrink down.
>>7822031>>7831899very nice.remember, bring the ethereal to the real, dont leave your work in a digital limbo.
>>7833136printing my work now
How about a short film thread. I will start.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QdappdXGeNU

Looks like the kind of thing that would have an dedecated community on 2000s DeviantArt
>>7828635I didn't know what any of this schizobabble is but you have very nice handwriting.
>>7828635ExcellentDiscord: pearlypenilepapules
>>7828635Unironically seek medical help. You need some kind of medication asap.I'm not talking about your drawing. You write like a schizo and you're almost certainly one.
you guys know where i can find good references?
>>7827523>>7823259>>7829543>>7763542
The next time you find either a photo of someone or a piece of art that makes you go "damn that looks good", save it and draw it later.
>>7832950Tell your little sister to wear micro bikini and pose.
>>7832950Tfw /ic/ can't draw from imagination
>>7832950how are you supposed to use that reference if there are bits cut out of her body?>just guess what's therethen its not a reference, is it?? You're using your imagination.
