It's supposedly coming out this month. What are you looking forward to?
>>7897577What would you want from an illustration app, besides the performance I mean?
>>7897790Yes, it's included
>Has no actual new content>expects me to fucking paywhat is this gay shit
how the fuck do i put my tabs up here. i want this space full.
>>7897577You need to set it on 'automatic' for your brush under "speed and quality", which is under anti-aliasing in your brush's settings for some reason. It's noticeably better, at least for me on my mid-range PC.

>>7897469Stop having thirdie internet lmao
>>7897466Better than 90% of /ic/ already.
First successful (doesn't look like a child's drawing) copy study. It's far from perfect, but I'm still very proud of it.I know some parts like the hand and antenna(?) are slightly off, but if you notice something more fundamentally incorrect, please tell me about it.
>>7897799I think that might not have been the best frame to choose to copy, her hand is very QUALITY. Good job on finishing it anyway though.
>>7897469Yeah I'm going to be honest I probably could have figured that out but I was being a bit reterded by the time I finished that shit kek. Didn't even mean to spam the thread 3 times but here we are.>>7897615 Thanke ye!
These are supposed to be the best of the best. The NSMA is run by Michael Klein, one of the big daddies of figurative painting today (so he claims, I don't buy it). What says you?Link: https://www.newsalemmuseum.com/2026-competition-finalists
>>7896317what do you like about it?
i might be wrong but the guy looks even smaller than the gal. fucking manlets, i swear
>>7896317I like it too. Reminds me of Gogh
>>7896281the composition/background doesn't matter to these "figurative" artists. that's the problem with the movement. the name they have given themselves defines the works. a lot of the times the poses are exactly as you'd find in life drawing sessions. the backgrounds, if there is one, is often painted with a lot less care because they never bothered to learn anything aside from the human figure.
>>7897127that, and they're a little tacky. I entered this contest and didn't make it to finals.

>>7896745gouache is a fake non-medium, you need to look at the actual composition to know what you're dealing withdextrin gouache behaves nothing like gum arabic gouache, which again will act widely different based on extenders, fillers, opacifier etc
>>7896750>gouache is a fake non-mediumI can see that now, wasn't experienced enough back in the days, to notice.I use mostly Horadam and Holbein. Horadam behaves more like regular watercolor. I have a W&N white, thats very strange. It's like a gel, very unpleasant to work with.
>>7889681for earth pigments in oil just buy the paint.it makes more sense for egg tempera, for historical methods, or for pigments that are not common/stable in tube paint. >>7889757as fresh paint rests, the particles become more efficiently coated in the oil, leaving you with paint that seems more oily than it was at first. you can then add a bit more pigment.
>>7897143>as fresh paint rests, the particles become more efficiently coated in the oil, leaving you with paint that seems more oily than it was at first. you can then add a bit more pigmentThat happens with some pigments. Ultramarine is a good example for that. You mix a paste, let it stand for a couple of hours and its liquid again, so you need to add more pigment.I think its a different effect, though, it gets liquid after a while, but if you mill it again without adding more pigment, it gets stiff again.
>>7897159erbium oxide does the opposite. It seems to harden in the tube quickly.

How can blood be used in art and how does this material change the conception, execution, and appraisal of the artwork?
>>7897410>some retarded foid was so horny for Donald Daddy to force birth her so she painted him with her period.Based.
>>7897427>>7897430You cut yourself. Draw your own blood. Or use period blood.

>>7897795Let's make this a suicidal drawings thread
The prodigal son returnshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMvJCCGU7Io
>>7897669Because that's how just about every beginner artist starts out, thinking drawing is just eyeballing the lines and xerox machine printing everything in one go. It's when they're introduced to fundies and building things out of basic shapes they start to develop a better workflow. That is unless you're this guy who still doesn't have a clue what the construction lines he's shitting on the canvas are meant for. Probably because he's more focused on churning out content for his YT channel than figuring out what's wrong with his drawing.
>>7897721>>7897669He should be focusing on getting his proportions accurate with simple lines that denote the brow ridge/eye-line/bottom of nose/mouth. Only AFTER your proportions are consistently accurate should you be even considering placing features on them.But yea, he's probably just interested in churning out content than analyzing how to learn better.
>>7897721well even eyeballing copying he should be getting much closer. I have no clue if hes trying to copy or do his own thing since hes so off on everything. not one line is even remotely close on the examples provided itt
>Schizoing out this hard on some random /beg/You niggers have no intention of actually drawing, do you?
>>7897740He's not random, he's been talked about here before. Lurk more kudasai.

I’m nearly always reading though, or multitasking with audiobooks when I need to work, run errands, eat or do daily tasks, and I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t. Just set down a book to type this.You might be surprised.

>>7897530I love reading but I haven’t had the time to read like I used to. Reading is actually a very time consuming hobby and I’d quite simply rather spend my time drawing

Why aren't you animating your drawings yet?https://x.com/khyleri/status/2029600877066211763If he can do it, so can you
>>7894687Shit like this always makes me laugh, because its glaringly obvious that a permavirgin made it. There's no way to be that clueless about pussies unless you've never gotten to play with one.
>>7896076>>7894861>>7894814no shit a virgin is drawing cartoon porn, but clearly he's trying to stylize the genitals, dicks aren't shaped like babushka dolls or have humps eithereveryone can tell you're virgins trying to get e-cred btw
>>7896091Why'd you reply to me? I didn't call him a virgin. I don't care about that. We have millions and millions of videos and photos of barenaked cock in pussy action, there's simply no excuse to think insertion happens directly beneath the clitoris. This would be like drawing a figure and attaching the arms directly to the neck. It's just wrong.
>>7896052Ugh fine, for a split second you can notice the ankle bracelet "ochako" is wearing while in the bed, or just look at the follow up animation by the same artist
>>7896052>>7897712It's also a jujutsu kaisen reference
I've been drawing for years and I still get caught in the cycle of "You should draw when you feel like it/You should always draw". I hate this shit.
>>7897613NTA but making manga is extremely hard. It's very tedious and complex in general. I also started a story but stopped at page 6, wrote a bunch of shortstories, etc, but it's just so much shit you have to draw.Currently I rather try to just focus on illustrations again. Fits more to my (which is being very slow)
>get good enough to do commissions>every commission is some horrifical or bizzare idea that I hate>start hating drawing because of it>can't stop because I don't have any other skillsholy shit. now I know why artists troon out or kill themselves.
>>7897088This is kind of an interesting topic. But this board sucks so I'll just post this frog.
>>7897638humble brag
>>7897613What party of making a manga drives your the most? Use that as a gateway into the boring stuff. If you like storyboarding more than designing characters or locations just start with that and that will begin to suggest design directions you can follow
Does your art appeal to the male gaze?https://youtube.com/shorts/PeXkS0QBL3s?si=C-hnMCHTewnUlPsn
>>7895573And what general is that? How do you know they're women?
>>7897429So the original comic is gay?
>>7897429>It's not about "imagine being intruded on the opposite sex", it's "imagine being intruded on by MEN"The original comic (if I recall correctly) is the same, except they drew the men looking sad or disgusted when receiving the compliments.The point the edit is making is that men would be very happy to be in the reverse situation. And no, men wouldn't be uncomfortable receiving compliments from other men - maybe if you ever did something deserving of a compliment, you'd realise it's not so bad (it's pretty great, actually).>"b-b-but it's intruding on -"We don't live our lives no interaction with each other, we're always going to be intruding on each others lives. A simple hello from someone passing by on the street can be seen as someone 'intruding' on the other person... and thinking so would also make you a massive whiny pussy.Acting as if some flirtatious compliments are as bad as stalking or sexual assault, or anything above benign, should open you up to being wildly ridiculed for being such a sensitive moron.
>>7896920the pink demon girl, what a fucking failure of design, both the original and the "male gaze" variant.
>>7897578ah, I don't mean stuff from this person in particular. they don't seem to have a lot of experience, everybody's gotta start somewhere.
How do you even begin to make money from art? I've been posting on insta, reddit, sometimes tiktok but I get nothing. I'm struggling to even find a minimum wage job, I'm feeling really hopeless
>>7896844This guy has decent advice.https://www.youtube.com/@TheArtMentorI used to do freelance graphic design and I didn't need a fucking social media following to get clients. If you want to get paid, why are you giving away your work for free?I'm switching from design to art commissions and I'm using this guys advice + what I learned from freelance graphic design work.
>>7897664how did you get clients if you didn't use social media?
>>7897677Freelance websites (e.g. Upwork)AgenciesReferrals (if you deliver within a deadline you are ahead of 90%+ of freelancers and clients will recommend you)You just need a portfolio which you can make as PDF. Watch the channel I linked, I'm sure he has several videos on this exact topic.
>>7897684sounds very enticing. I'm watching the channel you linked, thanks
>>7897269>you probably need to start cheap as you build a followingThat's true, but only relative to your skill level to a certain extent. If you're some near industry level pro, I would say 80 dollars would be good starting out and if you're some guy /int/ or barely /int/ level, then 30-40 would be a good starting point. Like that famous Sweden tuber that people started sperging out about when he learned to draw in a few months, he can sell his artwork for hundreds to thousands just because his name is attached to it.
