If 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.

Not looking for a pack but does anyone have a basic male and female front/profile/back ref? Trying to do some proportion studies.

Male references are good for practicing angles. Female references are good for gestures and curves. To be an artist, you understand both uses.

He 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.

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.

Why You Should Copy Anime:

**Strive for quantity AND quality.**

Anime Studying:
>Copy anime references exactly and draw them from memory. Use illustrations, screenshots, anime figures, 3D models, etc.
>Don’t copy recklessly. Use construction, color theory, and other fundamental concepts to rehearse a drawing process that you can later easily manipulate for original artwork.
>Post all of your anime studies. Post even when you’re told not to. Create an art community that actually draws and improves together instead of just talking about it.
>Number your attempts and link to your previous posts.
>Critiquers should lead by example by posting their studies.

Another try.
I had drawn the face too big in the last drawing and ended up overcompensating this time.
>>
>>7832251
>>7832921

Be 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.

I 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.

try doing a trace over the drawing before you draw it

too 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)

This is great advice. Just keep practicing and over time you'll get more confidence, OP! Always remember you have Ctrl+Z.

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
>>
>>7832783
poo 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
>>
>>7832874
They 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.
>>
>>7832874
Well, 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.

oh and free air filters and you don’t have to worry about porch pirates and then there is the gym/pool and clubhouse.
