China is silently infiltrating anime production with ONAs and using Japanese dubbing. Their shows are looking better and better as time goes on. The future of anime is slowly becoming Chinese.

This isn't exclusive to digital. This is just an aspect of drawing. Rendering form is just adding light to form by representing any give modelling factor. You render skin traditionally too

Is there a reason to why every anime always uses watercolor instead of oils or acrylics for backgrounds?

traditional gansai is kinda like those shitty dollar store watercolors they give you in elementary school art class - chalky, streaky, not flowing like watercolor, sits on top of paper
in japan, european style watercolor basically means transparent watercolor, in fact that was the old distinction holbein made before marketing came up with european style
contrary to what some think, gum arabic isn't european style, gums of all kinds are used in asian watercolors, including gansai
asian watercolors generally have a heavy glycerin or similar base, sugars, animal glue or what have you because it holds more pigment than gum arabic, which is why korean and japanese watercolors are very bright and chromatic but not popular
old holland watercolor is actually a chinese recipe and shares asian characteristics - low flow, lifts easily and extreme pigment density
lastly, all manufacturers lie constantly, there is literally zero chance some of the pigments holbein offers are at all workable in gum arabic without additives
speaking of lying and gansai, kuretake had a bit of a minor scandal a few years ago because they were labeling it as vegan and then "found out some ingredients weren't vegan" when pressed

Most used gouache and poster paint.

How do you use 2 point perspective to draw rooms and things with non-squareish shapes? Like an airplane cockpit for example.
>>
all of the really high-tier artists just trace shapes in blender. you don't need to know how to animate or design characters or anything, literally just make a flat grey box in the shape of your cockpit, position camera, then trace the scene. add characters later.
>>
>>7800047
One method is to just draw a square/box, but using that box to then find the shape you want.
So if you want a circular shape, you'd draw a square, and then draw the circle within the square (the circle is going to touch the four edges in the middle) and go from there.

No need to be so anal about it though, you can do what the anon above suggested, or just free hand it - so long as it looks good enough, it'll be... well, good enough.

Lots of bad advice thrown around here that was misdirection and ultimately a waste of time
>study my fundies
>draw a skull
>study loomis
>draw outside your comfort zone
these had the opposite effect and made me not want to draw at all

Best advice from /ic/
>draw in pen
I was using a pencil really hard for years, but it’s more than just using a pen and living with the mistakes without erasing. It is also switching up your tools when you hit a wall. Change something about your process and you’ll find hacks to drawing with any tool. Really good advice from some anon. I wish i knew who you were
>draw out of your comfort zone
This is actually the opposite advice. You should FIND your comfort zone. When you just want to put pencil to paper you have a nice goto thing to draw. When you are just starting out you dont have a comfort zone. It’s actually hard to find. People trying to grind fundies as a comfort zone. That wont feed you for years to come. It took me years of poking around to find a nice cozy spot to draw in. Find one and return to it when you get lost or need an easy win. Learning the names of muscles, the planes of the face, and setting up perspective grids isnt going to excite you enough to move your fatass when you need a spark to draw.

Should I buy this Intuos tablet from Ebay? I once got scammed there buying a car roof edge strip, and it wasn't the right size and I couldn't refund it.

Curious, for the people that actually draw here, what aspects of a piece of animation gives you the feeling reminiscent of a perfect fitting puzzle piece?

What makes us say "oh yeah that's it. That's what elevates this to feel just right."

Two pieces of heavy gauge metal clanging together with a hardy KA-CHUNK

I personally feel its all in the timing and simulation of weight, but I'm sure some would prefer the appeal and cleanliness of a drawing.

I know that's a pretty general question/example but would love to hear peoples thoughts.

Is there a particular reason you cant learn to draw using your left side of the brain?

I know the right side is the one everyone desires, but most people can't use it 100% everytime.

So why not learn to draw using the analitical side of the brain?

I think I can draw nicely taking into account I still use my symbol drawing skills.
