get a small time streamer with potential to strike it big and give her fanart to react to and then you have your first commisioner sooner or later
>>7396258For a week or so I searched low to high view coubt streams on itch who had a mascot or a v tuber It was pretty painful- a lot of people don't trust links because "they've been screwed before"The ones who did see them images though were really grateful or would just end their stream because it was too much attention It's a hard tactic but I'm sure it would payoff eventually
>>7396363you can do real life streamersi discovered someone named Em here she is reacting to my stuff: https://youtu.be/Luvd6RxeVvM
>>7396355>She probably made more money off of you watching her than she spent on your work This is true, but what about "exposure" ? You need a following and to do some work for free to gain said following. Not the OP but I did this once, it just feels nice to do nice for a streamer and be recognized live. Not everything needs some monetary ulterior motive, but if you need the dosh it's not the worst advice.>twitch.tv/overezeggs
>>7396487Rather a monetary motive than simping for a fucking vtuber
>>7396258Just make a good trad art and apply to a gallery ffs you fucking morons

>>7302391Might as well ask here. Any advice where to look for a skinnier model to reference? I'm looking for someone who is in the "stickier" side, someone that shows the bones in the hips, spine, etc. There's a character I'd love to draw but I don't have the best references right now. Sorry if this isn't the place to ask.
>>7302391What do you think about the general shape of stomach/hips? I know top part is mostly borked, but I tried doing nice hips for once, even if only in a very simplified take on it. Is bottom half of the body any good?
>>7396247I'd hunt on pinterest or just look for anorexic models in google search. That's usually where I go when I want something without a paywall.
i dont draw girls very often i hope did ok
Why don't you go to art school anon?
>>7396924There aren't lgs in art schools to draw from
>>7396791You always see artfags on youtube with them doing the inevitable video on "Is Art School a Scam?" and talk about their experiences and it pisses me off cause its an immediate red flag that they are a pampered rich kid with too much money to burn cause those fucks never EVER bring up community college as a viable option for just learning how to fucking draw/sculpt/etc. Learning how to do this shit isnt fucking rocket science, you dont need to waste thousands of dollars just to learn the shit, you can do local and get with/hang out with people in your community.>bu-but my connectionsStop thinking like a fucking leech, make actual fucking friends that actually care about you.
I did, I graduated in 2010 and got a job as a concept artist in 2011. I had like 4 different studios interested in me at the time but I chose EA in the end.Art school gives you a greaet atmosphere of being surrounded by a bunch of like minded people where you will naturally compete with and offer critique for one another. You get expert professional advice from professors and you get a dedicated 4 years of doing nothing but art. Figure drawing and painting classes will offer you the basics and you'll learn a real workflow in your illustration classes. From inspiration finding, thumbnailing, taking proper reference, finalizing sketches, working with an art director, and then the final illustration. And most importantly, you'll gain friends that you'll use as connections for the rest of your life because knowing someone that knows someone is the best way to get a job.
>>7396791Because I'm 28 and want to get married and start a family and have a well paying career.
Cold feet from thinking I'm not good enough.>>7396991Well I guess you're fucked either way.
Are these little anime tutorials actually useful or they are just a meme? Oftentimes they feel like "draw the rest of the fucking owl" but some others have interesting information. Anyways post some good ones if you have them.
>>7396749Fundamentals remain fundamentals. They don't ONLY use Loomis but he's one of the big names there.Loomis was a very successful professional illustrator before he created instruction books.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSW1GI-RST0
>>7396765It's easy to forget that modern asian arts are largely an offshoot of western ones. Anime didn't just erupt fully formed out of the mind of Osamu Tezuka. It's a direct decedent of western cartoons (and cartoon processes) of the early 20th century.
>>7396771https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_ConversationBefore that even.
>>7396765>he's one of the big names there.Some japs like his books but come the fuck on. Dude doesn't teach anything different from most other artbooks.
>>7396600>misbegotten excuse for a languageEnglish?
>Just draw, bro
I just draw and I improve. I know other anons say you have to think and plan it all out so you don't make mistakes, but my brain works better when I fail fast a bunch of times and then succeed rather than succeed very slowly with no failures
>>7396813Who told you that bull? Nearly every book on mastery says failing a lot and learning from it is the quickest way to improve.
applying yourself is the most important, pic rel is a 4 year difference.
>>7396938>no ref vs ref
>>7396938That there looks like a number you made the fuck up.

You can also use Pinterest, they don't allow nudes, but they have a bunch of good anatomy references.>>7396923nice man, I think it's good to change things up if you hit a rut. try to get the basic shapes down of the chest and the hips. Pause the vid and really try to understand the 3D shapes.Keep it up!

AI art used to be the bogeyman back in 2022 but nowadays almost everyone hates it, even non artists.
>>7386224Most people vote criminals as leaders now. The majority has never been any more the wrong path of humanity before now.
I'm sure someone said it but what is killing AI is AI pollution all through the net. Remember "The Most Profound Moment in Gaming"? MGS2 predicted that there would be so much noise that we'd need AI for truth? Looks like it's the other way around, the AI is producing so much slop and it's third worlders trying to scrape pennies off of every social media site that it has become a nuisance. They need to ban AI off of every platform simply because of the absolute nonsensical trash it produces. New artists are hard to come by when you have to sift through generic slop after generic slop. I seriously can't believe that these art sites allow this slop on their board do they not see how it's hurting it? There's also AI wordpress slop which uses SEO to give you viruses it's starting to be a worst infestation than the bots imo
>>7386308And Brazilians for being anti artists unless its them doing it.
>>7386426>Truth is, we are all the same.Wrong as FUCK lmaoOne is smart, the other uses a smart thing to do shit for them. You are closer to Trump mentally with his 73 IQ level than I am at 120.

>Makes an OC>Gives OC an elaborate personality, backstory, and world>Doesn’t turn these concepts into a comic or other complete work of fiction>Expects people to care about the unexecuted ideas aloneWhy not just admit that they’re like action figures to you? If you’re so invested in sharing lore, your ideas will never become realized. That’s fine so long as you’re not larping as a legitimate storyteller.
>>7395997my bad
>>7393671there are a lot more to drawing comics than just drawing characters standing around, beyond being able to depict what's happening and organizing them into story presentations, being able to tell and pace a coherent story that people connect with or are interested in are all different skill sets.
>>7395749>400k webnovelWhat are you, autistic?
stories and lore are overrated. vibes and excuse to draw something are a good reason to have an oc. If you want to draw like mountain climber, you can make a mountain climber OC and draw mountain environments and him exploring them. I like going to art galleries, both newgrounds and real life, spending a lot of time there looking at art and reading creator notes, more than I like reading books

/ic/ told me asian jeans were a lie??? look at this!! why does the jap draws the western character so well but the westerners can't draw his characters??
>>7390936What happened?
>>7396042here are some of his works, look how he tends to use very detail noses in monsters. Personally I find just hinting the underside of the nose as a 2 value patches gives an appealing and characteristic result.
>>7396100huh, neat. Thanks for posting anon.
>>7390663First you Brazilians claimed to be whitesNow you claim to be asiansBut you will never be either, you're brown and more mutt than American blacks.
