I have never meaningfully improved. My hand-eye coordination is much better, but my actual drawing skill is still more or less where it was when I was three years old. I'm still stuck at the "grasping the basic concept of drawing" phase.

I did block them at first, but as >>7953484 said there are tons of bots, I even blocked the common hashtag from my words list and STILL saw them. I reported about 3 times then continuously blocked, tapped "I not interested in this type of content" and what I said above. A couple of months later I was banned.

Arms are a bit short
Back is a bit too broad
I suggest drawing the entire shoulder muscle to get a better feeling for its placement
If you draw the pose like this I wouldn't even bother with the neck and just have the head cover it

>>7954473
This is a great opportunity to use foreshortening. So obviously just make the ass way bigger and the head really smaller.

>>7954473
If only there was some way you could own a human a body and make it do any pose you want and film it from any angle with a magic glass rectangle. That would be so handy!

Nothing loads up on the link. Is the website working, or am I missing something?

anybody using huion in dual display setup with csp? i have this issue that when i toggle displays via pen, csp is not focusing (keyboard shortcuts dont work) despite being able to draw

Is it normal for the cursor to shake when doing slow lines sometimes? I'm using a 5 year old screenless and I can't remember if I've ever had this problem before. It could just be something new about my drawing method so is this normal?

Got a free Lenovo 2 in 1. Are they worth using as a drawing tablet? This is coming from someone that has never used one before.

>>7952838
for example, if i were to use a large intuos (basically a rectangle similar to A4 size) with a 16'' laptop screen, you are almost ratio 1:1 in both the size of the tablet and the size of the screen.

i mostly learned digital drawing in the begining with a huion medium size tablet (10x6) and a 24'' 1080p monitor, and thats more like 2:1 ratio, it means when 1 draw a straight line of 10 cm, i get 20cm on screen. you have to practice doing circles and straigh lines to get acustomed to it, but not mindlessly watching tv doodling. its about acuracy practice.

I was at the time finishing doing the drawabox first chapter in paper (the boxes challenge), drawing boxes, circles and elipses in 3 pages.
I moved to digital and started just doing the same warmup exercises.

After a couple of years on this setup, i moved to a large intuos 4, and recently, to a 32'' screen.

The thing i did, was to activate the precision mode (wacom drivers), that allows you to ''draw a rectangle'' inside your monitor, and use just that as active area. I did a rectangle in size like a real 24'' monitor space, and when im doing lineart, i use that instead of the full 32'' area to draw, just because i've use that for longer and i'm more comfortable.

If you persist and do your daily acuracy warmup practice, i believe you need like a month to get the hang of it, but just doing the warmup drawabox for around 1 hour, and then check and mark with red your acuracy mistakes. is a boring method but after a week you most likely can do it mechanicaly from memory.

I actually write on each page a single word to base a drawing on! The journal I got for general ideas happens to be inside my wallet with a smol pencil.

I'm considering having someone make me general shapes compact into multiple card sized templates rn. I think it's a very niche item so I don't think the dimensions for an item like that exists other than that one metal card.

You should pity the crab. Do not taunt them. Do not abuse them. It is by the grace of art alone that you too did not end up as a nodraw crab. Miracles can happen.

>This part doesn't happen. Absolutely nobody who watches the MCU even thinks about comics, I'd bet that 99% of people who watch the MCU are even aware that comics are still being produced.
Okay, even though anecdotally I know this isn't true because I've personally talked to comic shop owners who told me that exactly this happens almost verbatim. Just to play devil's advocate, why would anime be such a massive marketing boon to manga when the MCU has completely no effect on western comic books??? Why would someone watch an anime and be overwhelmed with the compulsion to run out and buy 20 volumes of manga, but the same person watches 12 MCU films and doesn't even consider the possibility that they might google "hey is the amazing spider man comic still being printed?" And frankly I would bet there was at least 1 scene in the hundreds of hours of MCU where there was a comic shop or some geek discussed reading this in a comic or something. Millennial writers think that references are terribly clever after all. I really really doubt that anybody seriously watches the MCU and genuinely thinks that comic books aren't being published anymore. That's just fucking retarded.

>>7956150
Because the movies sell literally hundreds of millions while comic books can't sell enough to support even 5 issues
People don't look for the comics after watching the movie for the same reason they don't look for a Terminator comic after watching Terminator. It's just a movie, they assume it doesn't have a comic attached to it, and frankly even if they did, they don't care, they watch movies, not comics.

Manga succeeds in this pipeline because the manga IS the anime. If there was a comic that was panel for panel identical to the plot of Avengers endgame prior to its coming out, that comic would sell millions. But no such comic exists.

thank you. this is also cute. i always liked seeing your art while lurking.
initially she had a carrot necklace but im dropping it because carrots are toxic to bunn and this meme needs to end

>>7953409
so carrot knife or carrot gun would be more appropriate?

>Is this sh!t or decent?
It's a bit hard to tell, since both your photos are basically from the same angle, and I can't get a good look at it - it seems alright from this viewpoint, but I suspect that the foot is too thin. Also, I think you need to sand it for a professional finish (or smooth it better as you work on it), as I suspect most will not find the texture it currently has all that appealing. Also, is there a reason you have a big nail sticking through it? Will that be the case for all of them?

As for its financial viability, assuming you clean up the surface of them and make them presentable, I think they could sell, but I couldn't begin to guess the price you should set - take a look on etsy or ebay and look for sculptures of similar qualities and see what they're charging (only look at sellers from first world countries, no point in comparing yourself to thirdies who do not value their time not have an aspirations).

Also take note of what subjects and kind of sculptures are actually selling. I doubt you'll sell too many foot job statues, but I'm sure people would go wild for a hand made gnome statue or something kitsch like that.

He's more of an entertainer these days, rather than an art teacher. People have made comparisons to art attack, even in this thread, and I think that's apt. Do you really think the host from art attack was a great artist? He was probably good, sure, but probably no better than the average hobbyist - but that didn't make his show less entertaining.

Point is, Jazza may not be a great artist either, but he's good enough where he can to about certain artistic subjects with some level of authority, and good enough where people are interested in watching him work.
His videos are his actual product, and the art is just the means in which to make them.

... all this said, I saw he released a book on anatomy, and I can't help but think that he's not thaaat good - you need a certain level of skill to release a book on a subject, in my opinion, and Jazza has not reached that point.

>>7952959
>it's far lower than anyone on this board is willing to admit
The skill required to make it in comics is absolutely staggering I'm assuming you're downplaying it by posting Scott because you think skill=being able to render all the human muscles and drawing cubes in perspective or some retarded shit instead of things that constitute 80% of the appeal like composition, color or pacing which picrel has in spades

>>7955902
>Any random twitter artist can draw ten times better than them so how do they cope?

When you get older you realize that being "the best" is really silly and vague also the 'best' is highly subjective, people will tell you that Harry Potter is the best fantasy series and Lord of The Rings is boring. People connect to different kind of works in different kind of ways and while other things may be considered great you may not have any interest in it. I've met someone who found who found paintings by Leonardo Davinci boring and Michael Angelo boring and they're considered the 'best'.
>I NEED to sell courses and teach others how to draw like this"
I don't like Greg Doucette but he was absolutely right when he said "All you need is to know 5% more the average person In order for someone to consider you an expert" and fortune favors the bold. Also what is he really losing from selling courses? He makes an evergreen product and leaves it dangling for whoever is silly enough to take it. People do not use money based on logic, and people have a lot to throw away, all major companies realized this and that's why everything is shit quality wise now.

>>7955779
I got halfway through the book and the exercises are not really that complex, which is okay for begs. But my main problem with the book is that It's the confusing sophistry used in a book for begs. It's one of those books where the description of the action tends to be more confusing than the actual action. You're better off with perspective drawing handbook rather than that. TL;DR: Perspective made easy is overrated as hell, and too confusing for begs.

His channel is great to find professional artists to learn from. His video with Aaron blaise changed my life because it introduced me to Aaron blaise. But proko himself is infuriating to listen to and I completely disregard his advice. To this day I cant finish the podcast with James Gurney, Marshall, and proko because proko wont shut the fuck up! I dont care about anything he has to say. I think hes a soulless grifter that doesnt actually care about art but he found a great way to make money on youtube
