>>7971221EVERYONE got affected by AIBBC chan, a 200k follower art account who used to work full time on comms and patreon money now has a day job and rarely updates his shitthe market is fucking shit right now, really really fucking shit. the better you are at art the LESS comms you get because of people raising eyebrows wondering if your shit is AIDont do art for the money, and especially NOT NOW.
yes, more people are interested in learning to draw nowso the dab jeet now makes even more money

>>7970576I thought “well, this is a very solid self portrait” and then saw the original and immediately went “oh yeah I see why he altered it” lol. I can see why critics tore him a new one, obviously all we have is the copy his wife made and I’m basing myself off of that but the colors seem dull, there’s no real zone that your eyes dart to at a first glance, the stance is also awkward, I can understand why he chose it but it doesn’t work at all imo.
I was drawing every day for like three weeks back in 2023. Posted in /beg/, bought right side of the brain and made an account to post on draw every day(dad) and then I just stopped Why?

Look -- if you don't have talent, give up on art. You're wasting your time.You're going to grind for the year, for what? To be able to draw 1% better than you did before you started grinding. Meanwhile someone with talent? 50% in a month. And how many years have you been at it even? You're nowhere where you want to be. You probably won't make it. This isn't a hobby for (You). Go find something else to do.
>>7949897good and refreshingly honest advice.You can not achieve anything you want and you should give up if you dont have what it takes. Good genes to succeed in a given field. Realize when its over and do something else
>>79498971% better is still progress1% of something is a hell lot more than 100% of nothing.Keep on grinding anon. Keep pushing the boulder no matter how heavy, no matter how steep the heel. 1% better at something is already a lot more than anyone who gave up or who didn't even begin can dream of achieving.
>>7949928I agree with this I was ass at art, so much so everyone made the excalibur face seeing it and quietly distanced from meIt took several years, literally that long but I am able to draw art that people actually want at this pointPeople irl even think it is cool as hell and always ask for my art at their businesses or want to be my friend over itAnyone who thinks they are completely NGMI, all you need is time each day to draw and some autistic spirit. Keep bookmarking great tips and asking for advice on /ic/, make notes on what to fix or breakthroughs on your art every so often, and most of all the more passion you have the more it will show in your work. Never give up my friends if you are willing to put in actual studious work it can be done
>>7949897Stopped reading after "give up".If you don't find art fun, just stop doing it, but don't drag everyone else down with you because you are a petty petulant child.
>>7949928>"genetic predisposition towards thinking in 3D"And also>genetic predisposition towards perceiving color>genetic predisposition towards perceiving textures>genetic predisposition towards perceiving faces>genetic predisposition towards perceiving human bodies>genetic predisposition towards perceiving perspective>genetic predisposition towards unconscious comprehension of compositionAnd many more others skills some brains are wired to understand, learn or execute better than others like making overall appealing aesthetical choices or sensing what the audience wants to see for engagement if you are trying to make it on social media.>b-b-but everybody can be good if they work har-Delusional outlook that westerners just love because it's more convenient to be blind to reality and parrot sweet lies than to accept the simple reality that people are built different. Asian artists see through this bullshit, they are always honest, they know talent + hard work >>>>>> no talent + hard work ~ talent + no hard work >>>> no talent + no hard word.Try peddle your bullshit how hard works beats everything and talent doesn't exist to a japanese artist and see them dying of laughter.
I can't explain it. This is my favorite cover art of all time. The large amount of white space to place focus on the characters. The implication that these are two sides of the same person. The way the characters phase into each other. The mysticism inside the cloak. The text placement, font, and colors catching your eyes while not overshadowing the art.I recognize this isnt the most amazing piece of artwork ever created but something about its simplicity while capturing everything it needs to just speaks to me.
woah... that's deep
>>7969743I prefer picrel, the title say to put them on but you don't know what so you look at the cover and the logo and you panties.>>7969771>that's deepPalpable sarcasm
>>7969743I'm like it a lot too
>>7969862>the title say to put them on but you don't know what so you look at the cover and the logo and you pantiesnigga done gooned hisself retarded
>>7969743I tend to dislike covers where the characters are standing in a blank space but I understand your point of view, you reminded me to check the anime. Also, most authors don't design their covers (at least in Jump). Here's my favorite:
As a beginner, I have been looking at this for days now, trying to make sense of these sketches. But none seems to work. Every once a while either it'd be>incorrected head shapes, too big, too long, too wide>wrong proportions of the facial features> eyes too small, too big, doesn't follow the form of the headMaybe this is too advanced for me? Can i anyone help me where to start to understand this better?
>>7970850Hey, do you have the original image from OP?
It had been a while since I last drew anything, but I did so today.At first I couldn't do it. I made a sketch, it looked like ass, but I kept going. At a point when I moved from drawing one shape to the next, enlightenment came upon me and I remembered what drawing was all about. Then it was easy again.I could perceive the thing directly. One moment it wasn't with me, and then it was. I know exactly what it is. But I still can't put it into words. It's a mental process that you have to engage consciously. And it's not a spectrum, it's binary. It's not imagination or mind's eye. It's not a construction method. Even "feeling the form" captures only a fraction of what the thing is. It isn't like riding a bicycle, because you can actually forget it. It is definitely only one thing, though.At one point there was a canvas with some lines on it, and in the next moment there was a tiny world. The experience of it coming back to me was visceral.

Have you ever encountered a head construction method like this?

>>7971494Forgot file like dummy.
>>7971130Do you know what you want out of it? Like what kind of art and style you're aiming at, what kind of artists you like and would like to be like? Also helps if you have stuff *coughporncough* you want to make for yourself.>>7971026Nice vibes!
>>7934960>>7935643>>7935589>>7935800You need to learn how to draw human bodies but you absolutely do not need to do it before you draw furs. You can and should do both at the same time. The idea that you need to learn how to draw perfect realistic anatomy before you draw what you actually want to is how you get perma/beg/s and people who just quit art because they get burnt out.
How much time do you usually think you need for it to be worth starting to draw? Say you have to leave the house or go to bed in an hour, two hours etc. how little time left is too little time to be worth it to get started for the day? I feel like the number is gonna be much lower than my gut feeling which tells me it's all nighter or bust desu but I think I need to hear from someone else just how wrong that gut feeling isPic unrelated
>>7971041If I don't have at least an hour it feels like I'm rushing
>>7971041If I'm just doing a rough sketch, then even 10 minutes is enough. If I'm gonna start the linework, then I'd wait until I have more than 4 hours available.
>>7971041having a short time limit makes it EASIER to draw. If you know you have to go out in 2 hours, your brain will want to draw and squeeze as much as you can out of that time. If you have infinite time because of no responsibilities, then its difficult to start drawing because there's nothing forcing you to
>>7971501Yeah. My biggest problem isn't not having enough time, but the difficulty of starting (procrastination is real)One of the strategies I've picked up to fight procrastination is to work in 15 minute bursts. I set up a timer, tell myself it's just 15 minutes, and start working. Then I chain them once I get the momentum going.It can be surprising how much can be done in 15 minutes. Of course, that's 15 minutes of intense working, not sitting around staring at a canvas and pretending to work.
>>7971041Since you specifically mentioned drawing for the first time within the day, I'd say at minimum 1 hour plus. Ideally about 90 minutes. I find that my brain takes some time for it to switch into that art gear, unless I've been having consistent long drawing sessions for the past few days. Otherwise, if you've already managed to get into that art gear earlier in the day then even 30 minutes is a good enough amount of time to get something "decent" done. Be it a sketch or something just a bit more complex. I've recently made some slight changes to my daily schedule to wake up earlier and have at least 2 hours to draw before I have to go to work. It's been going pretty well desu.

>>7971659Part of the charm of anime and manga for me is the silliness, the cartoon-physics, the exaggerated facial expressions. I actually like these early pages a lot more too. I mean, your technical skill has improved, but it has kind of become a meme to say this these days, but you've sort of lost some soul in your work in gaining technical skill.

It's so hard to draw when it's hot..
How popular do you need to be to get 500-1k USD monthly doing art online? Is it viable with just around 3k followers or so on various social media?
>>7970844pywPlease, let me see what 40k sub art looks like
You need to understand how websites like Patreon work. Artist A has 10 paying members and Artist B has 200. They both generate the same income. It's a very common sight. Artist B could be you. You want to be Artist A.
>>7970914I have no interest to earn money frrom my art. I do art because i enjoy it and i draw what i want to draw. If i would do it money, then i would need to draw what other people want and that wouldnt be as enjoyable.
>>7971749I only accepts comms I want to draw myself.t. >>7970934No one forces you to accept comms you don't want to draw. Also clients comm you because they like what you draw. No one is going around asking if a guy who has never drawn whatever kink they have to draw the kink. Instead they pick up artist who already draw their kink and then comm them to draw personalized artwork of that kink.I recommend spending few days to a) figure what you like to draw and b) how to market and brand yourself so that you get the audience you targetting. You rather draw and earn money from drawing what you like than draw and not get paid to do it.
>>7970918I'm making my dream game and art and I never had more fun.You can do both if you you like both enough... Granted it too 3 years to get good enough at drawing to start.
Whenever I go to this board. I see Loomis, Vilppu, Hampton, and Bridgman. But rarely Hogarth. Is Hogarth really that underwhelming compared to the other anatomy/figure drawing artists?
>>7970351its not a beg book and most of /ic/ are perma beg no draws so they dont know how to use the book as a tool,
>>7970351his anatomy is very stylized but early in his tarzan career he aped Hal Foster so well that even foster claimed couldnt tell the difference. Dynamic figure drawing is absolutely filled withe useful information for figure invention
>>7970351People don't want something that's exaggerated to illustrate a point which they have to reinterpret into their own work. They want a 123 guide to teach them exactly what to do
>>7971756They need to 1. lie down and 2. stay quiet as I 3. kick them in the head.

/lwad/#2Previous: >>7849114I've obtained a prescription for (generic) Adderall and wanted to experiment on how it affected learning to draw. I opened this thread to document my progress and for everyone else's observation / amusement.My goal with this thread is to simply take an Adderall and draw for at least a couple hours a day and post the results. Realistically I may miss some days. The hope is to keep these threads ongoing until I'm either satisfied with the progress documented, or I crash out.Probable Questions:>Why?Whether or not medicating has a significant effects on learning, if it only has a partial effect on some related disciplines that go into drawing, or it arguably had no major effect at all, I want this thread to feed into any discussion as a case example.

Just a sketch today, have to sleep early.Tried to find a specific reference for a stance and the closest thing I got was a a low res photo by some dude who does salts in the Arizona desert for his Christianity blog.
Probably doing the background tomorrow.Bro is looking at the fairy. NOT the sexy lady. I swear.
Not much today. I accidentally made this dude look gormless, but it made me smile so I stuck with it.
Body hurts syndrome today. Cubes.
Hair practice and a figure.I think I figured out what's wrong with me trying to connect the hips and torso, I'm trying to put two things together I should think of it was one thing.Gomen for the lighting.
