>>7799757shows really cute and competent animation for a final that has a fun story and consistently interesting character designs, somehow calls it permabeg.Yeah ok buddy retard lol
>>7799757>3rd yearshocking
>>7838501>>7838502Wow, something actually good ITT that doesn't look like it was made by an 8 year old. Cool work, anon!
>>7832094Assuming you do the basic tutorial, I found Moho to be incredibly intuitive.
1: Post a brief backstory if your OC has one.2: Character design critique and discussion is welcome.3: Keep it fairly SFW. Lewds are fine but no explicit porn.4: This is NOT a request thread. Artist Only. No spamming OC/infodumps for multiple threads without delivering.5: Be sure to thank Drawfrens for their hard work as soon as you can, it's just common courtesy :^)Previous Thread: >>7737531
>>7838730Im stoooooopid
>>7838730>>7838732Lmaooo I remember watching this way back and thinking that it was so different and weird from the other episodes on the show. Loving your drawing and pose! Especially the detail on the headwear, I'm a sucker from red and black colour combo. Thank you so much for drawing her and I'll get to drawing one of your characters soon!
>>7838471
>>7839085omg she's so freaking cute here, thank you so much! do you have an OC I can draw for you??
>>7838730in the file didn't have her name, but thanks again for drawing my character!
>SAMPLE>COMISSION>very low res photo because artists are afraid of people stealing their art>NO AI TRAINING OR REPOST>censored art with promotions for their fanbox or patreon>posting as low quality gif so people can't use the grok edit picture feature>artist username plastered across the characterCan this kind of people be less mentally ill? I just want to appreciate their art.
>>7838575Its dogshit because they're relatively new to drawing. So each drawing they spend hours on is a bigger chunk of their experience. So if someone were to "steal" it, whatever that means, it hurts more. Someone whose been drawing for ten years isn't gonna agonize over this type of shit.
>>7838571Boichi and Kei Urana quit Xitter, that new feature really is backfiring if even manga artists are out.
>>7839342This is fair, I'm an old fart so I often forget how everything feels like a huge deal when we are young or starting something new.
>>7839342Guess that's kinda makes sense lol. I know back when I first started doing digital it took me like 8 hours for a single piece and I did like only a dozen a year. Nowadays it'll take me just 1-3 hours so to me a single art piece are just one and done. And I do about 150-200 a year
>>7838571It will just make ai art and ai art tracing even easier.Post lower res watermark plasted images and even less people will notice the already hard to see AI tells or mistakes.Also artists are crybabies, especially japanese ones. Nothing new.

>>7836848Discussion was related to learning anatomy. Hegre's lighting is usually great but his camera angles and lens selection is not the best as references. I think he takes most pictures from waist level. Lucy from same guy.

>>7838832>clothing and fabricThank you!
>>7837129The best female anatomy reference I've seen posted in these threads, is there a link?
>>7839167You are fucking hopeless.
General dedicated to posting and discussing art of either:1. Manmade objects, vehicles, tool, weapons etc. (of any kind and any historical era, as long as they fall in the ballpark of "technology") and fictional derivatives of such2. Objects,vehicles, creatures etc. that aesthetically fall into the visual space of mecha/robot/artificial/cybernetics etc. regardless of level of realism.Helpful to mention the level of realism, if any, you are taking into account in the art.
Where can i find some good plane reference?
>>7763149Holt shit based ZoE bro I /kneel
I used a picture of Sanakan as a reference
>>7755862A technique I developed when learning descriptive drawing was to lightly erase areas where lines where getting too crowded, and then redraw in the ones I wanted to keep. I would keep in mind an hierarchy of lines based on how important I judged them, and make them more visible or less based on that.I wouldnt erase to the point where any line actually dissapeared, but it would increase vizibility. And with enough repetitions, past construction lines would give a nice texture and the dirtiness wouldnt pop as much by contrast. So I could get away without redrawing on a clean new page.

>>7838738It's a goddess.
>>7838752Not him, but you went full retard on the blocking, she looks like those hentai memes of girls squished into cubes and the sloppy values just further hurt the form of the cast.I also just don't understand what you were going for in general, there's no effort reflected in either the values or the hatching, it looks like you blocked in the cast, got bored and just slopped your way through to get it over with. If you're bored with a study, step away, do something else and come back to it later. Studies need effort, use a sketchbook for the loose stuff

>>7839501fugg. I feel like a prick for dropping so many now >>7839332I should probably go back to Keys to Drawing, I feel like that definitely helped me the most and I still remember a lot of the lessons. idk, could be that I'm just undisciplined, or it's a matter of finding the right teacher/s like Brent isn't a bad teacher or anything, it's just that his approach and delivery is so dry and surgical, it doesn't ignite much of a spark. same can definitely be said of DAB's severe autism
>>7839507Because this is a tradgod general and digitards are just guests.
>>7839508Brent is a good teacher. I will try to finish his course in the future.
Going through watts atelier. I don't mind Jeff's philosophical banter, I think it's very ASMR. I heard Brian Knox is also a good teacher but I'm not there yet.

Why you should not trust youtube shills:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VH1WEYF8rlAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Twy5Wo8m284Do not worry pressure levels. 1024 is more than enough.Remember to ignore all chinese shills.

>>7837371>>7837372>and nearly every tablet is noticeable. It's only noticable if you're looking for it. Wobble is inherent to the EMR technology, cannot be eliminated, and it's not significant enough to disrupt the actual drawing. When you are actually drawing a picture, rather than trying to benchmark the tablet you are A. not drawing straight 45 degree lines with a rulerB. using a stabilizer and the stabilizers eliminate it entirely>Bu bu but Wacom Pro Wacom built the stabilizer into the drivers. the only reason you don't see the wobble is because they are cheating.
>>7836161Both sounds like a bad idea, but there's something you need to know about the Samsung, and OLED. OLED fucks you up, it's not fit for the content production. A. it's oversaturated. I worked on a samsung tablet for years. When a picture looks normal on an overblown OLED it looks dull on a normal screen. B. OLED crushes the dark values HARD. One time I was commissioned to draw a girl swimming at night and boy was that a fucking nightmare. OLED completely fucked up the dark values and the entire scene was dark, so I had to color it basically blind.Samsung is a decent tablet with a decent pen, but man, you gotta be wary of the OLED, they simply aren't accurate. Imagine trying to build a house with an incorrect tape ruler.
I got a medium wacom intuos pro for Christmas. This is my first tablet. Should I avoid putting my wrist on the tablet when drawing? I would like to keep this thing nice. I have no excuse to not draw now.
>>7839105>I would like to keep this thing nice. I have no excuse to not draw now.No such thing. You will fuck it up, think of it as an eraser, if you use it it goes.
>>7838504>It's calibrated to accurately represent sRGB which looks boringUpdate, I was wrong. It actually has a DCI-P3 profile, i just didn't know about. It's great.
What’s the point of studying anatomy, when it can’t save a drawing, unlike rendering?
>>7839152Kill yourself, shitposter
>>7839152Soulless vs SOVL.
Sharty troons are at full force today huh
Both are bad at anatomy lol
>>7839152they're both shit
Idk if this is the right thread to post this on but I need ideas for a unique monster design for my survival horror series I’m writing. It’s something of a zombie apocalypse story but the zombies in this case are more like demons, beings of pure unbridled hatred and malice. Picrel is the closest I’ve came to matching this description. Any ideas?
>>7838391Soulful. You should make the demons manifest through humans so it looks like a person is being zombified, but as their flesh starts rotting away you see the demon beneath.
>>7838398Similar to this, if you're having the demons come from humans - you could have it so they're a bit like the necromorphs from dead space - make the demon's horns out of the human's ribs, the goat like legs are because the human legs are twisted around, their clothes can be the flesh torn and draped around them in particular ways, etc.
>>7838391I vaguely see the vision, but is it as if their tearing from flesh or decay?
>>7838424It’s as if something inside of them finally emerges and overtakes their entire body, if that makes sense. The lore goes very deep

how do i actually leanr to draw again?last time i did stuff like fundies for 7 month, daily 4 to 5 hoursbut that got me nowherei havent really drawn anything ever since 2022, what to do to actually learn this time?
>>7838727There is a site called drawabox, its really good.
>>7838727>7 month, 4 to 5 hourslies>i haven't really drawn anything ever since 2022there's your problem>>7838735ty for your service
>>7838762>ran back to ic to bait on the night of Christmas Holy kek! What a fucking loooooooossssssseeeeerrrrrr !!!
Just draw more idiot. You have made 18 drawings over the span of two years how do you expect to accomplish anything? I started since 2020 and Im and intermediate semi professional(not in skill, but I make some money) meanwhile you're out here freaking out like some crackhead. Do you even like drawing? Do you even want to draw? Because if you dont, if its seriously agonizing you dont have to draw.
Why the fuck is this retard flooding the board with these shit threads again?
Has /ic/ ever worked on a visual novel?
>>7837992Okay negroid, feel free to elaborate, cuz i'm actually interested in different perspectives. I think there is a large under-served market of erotica games and i think you should do a VN if that's the way you want to tell your story, not because you think coding is something insurmountable for you.If you limit yourself to something reasonable like Love2D or Pygame then you get very quickly to a point where you can casually crank out basic 2D games. True, you can also become a retard who spends 10 years making the most amazing 2D platformer that nobody plays and then cry on youtube it. But there is nothing against learning to code, just to see what possibilities it opens up for you. Hell, why not extend the VN formula with some puzzle elements or Undertale-style minigames. I admit it may be a bit of a porn-game-brained perspective, where gameplay often serves to grind for new scenes.>>7838185Where are you getting your players from, do they come from tumblr or is it just rando's discovering your stuff on Steam?And have you ever looked into getting your work translated and onto a JP storefront?
>>7838440*not storefront, a JP site like DLsite I mean
>>7838261that's true. i used to be one of these until i read soundless - a modern salem >>7838396that's also true...i have this delusional dream that my game could blow up like ranfren/flesh, blood, and concrete it seems like the best case scenario for a fandom as an english speaking person is to have it be mostly non-english speakers, otherwise you run the risk of getting smacked if you do anything le problematic or le transphobic
>>7838440itch.io has a surprisingly decent internal reach. i used to be on twitter too until they wanted to dox where i post from. i get 2-3k downloads on my games which is decent ig, I would probably get more if I did mobile versions since apparently a lot of players prefer those and renpy does let you export android .APK files. I don't bother with steam I don't think they would let me host lolisho without being annoying about it (itch has been mostly okay despite one massive scare but I just hosted offsite backups for people). I haven't really looked into getting on dlsite but maybe if I find someone willing to translate I'd think about it but I'm unconvinced JP players would be interested in foreign works>>7838551I was one too so of course I appreciate the perspective and don't think ill of them. Just more wanted to give the perspective that it's hard to make a go of it unless you aim for very specific markets or stop caring about success.

How can you prove your artwork is authentic in the world of AI slop? Every method I could imagine has been compromised.>WIPsPretty easy to fake. Just trace and work backwards.>TimelapsesSome apps like Procreate let you hide reference layers, and it's known that prompters will take advantage of that to hide the fact that they're tracing over AI slop.>TraditionalEven that isn't a guarantee since prompters have now been printing out their AI slop and tracing over it on paper.So what's left? Filming yourself drawing? Showing your entire file system? Is this an unwinnable arms race?
