Anyone here done a fine arts degree? What was it like?
>>8011363My cousin once told me of his experience at some prestigious art school in Chicago, where he watched some fat chick pour milk on herself while moaning and stepping on butter or something. Roughly early 2010s timeline. Anyway it gave me some lols and I later went to business school instead.
>>8011363Yeah. Basically just told to draw and paint. My painting professor apprenticed under Wilbur Niewald. I currently work as a groundskeeper at a different university
>>8011363We learnt more about politics than art. All art is political after all.
>>8011363>Average Deviantart experience.

>>8011930Kinda warms my heart that people still remember this meme. I unironically loved CAD when I was in middle school in the 00s and I thought it was hilarious so it’s nostalgic for me.

>>8011924I was expecting more fur type stuff seeing this Pal here.You're doing good with this one.It's always interesting to me how people interpret her design. Is she wearing a dress? Is she not? That frilly stuff on the back gives it a maid feel.

Is the strategy to make NSFW/ fetish visual novels/ games?I've seen a bunch make a whole heapa money, and the updates tend to be slow, with a surprising lack of sprites. I figure I can write some story, or get somebody else to write for me, while I just draw probabably less than 100 sprites, with most just being variations.
>>8011330Name 1 thing you've made that people wanted. Just one.
>>8011325some gooners probably are, but they are a minoritygood estimate would be less than 1%the rest? definitely money laundering and this shit is exactly why the adult industry is considered high risk because there are so many ways to go unchecked that it's best to just not allow certain kind of businesses and its not like patreon gives a shit either since they get rich from it too
>>8011266It’s not a guaranteed instant success but if you can find a niche to cater to then it’s a good strategy yeah
People only see the patreon numbers and not the 18 hour work days that go into creating an this shit and managing your social media, when you work it out even the "successful" artists are timemogged by someone who just got hired at Wendy's
>>8011266Make your personal fetish project to satisfy your own desires and the coomers will cum
>What is this?CRAB is an OCT where artists submit their OCs and participate in a three-round tournament where they are pit against an opponent to fulfill a prompt's task over the other. There are three rounds and thus three prompts that an artist must fulfill featuring their OC facing off against another OC using the theme and prompt as their guideline for content.>How many people are participating?40 people assorted into 8 teams with waitlisted contestants for spots that open up in-tourney due to dropouts or sudden departures.>How long will this take?From May 17th to Aug 25th.>Random art battles?CRAB has had animations, VNs, DOOM.WADs, and more submitted as entries in the past, that's where the 'random art' comes from.>How does this work?Main organization is done on Discord but it is not a requirement if you want to stay thread-only, however you do have to host your entries on catbox or other image hosts to be voted on by other participants.

Hey 17ling! Sorry it's been a bit since I last checked in. I've been grinding away at Rachel's doom (and there's still quite a bit of doom to go!)We're in the final stretch, so I just wanted to see how you're doing and if ya need anything! The other Cats are cookin' up some fun stuff (one's even got a fun little 17ling goof.) They've got a couple of ambitious pieces in the works, but I think we'll squeak by!Excited to see you make Cali-mari,- Locket :3

>>8012561I'm getting high ngmi readings from this post. I guess it's useful for the other anons to see what they should not be thinking if they want to make it with anime.
>>8012563Just reading it raised my IQ by a couple of points and made me more radicalized in my opinions on the Western Question.You won't gain anything by me offing myself lil bro, you won't ever graduate doing faux anime stuff with this outlook.
>>8012674Wtf 4chan nuked my textNot sure if this goes here, but is this kind of background only good for 4komas or this type of comics with flat colors or cell shading? it feels like if it were something more realistic i will look off but some of these look way too basic
Random drawing of my boy Denis. He’s a Russian immigrant living in the 1990s United States & is born in 1972
>>7999162lol i think i get that one.
The picrel made me mentally pronounce Denis like penis
>>7992972what breed is he?
>>7992972he looks nothing like a russian
>>8007246They confuse me for Russian but I'm only half-Slavic.
For those of you that try to maintain a balance of drawing SFW and NSFW; do you try to hide your NSFW from people that like your SFW stuff and vice versa? Do you have two separate accounts where you don't link to either? I'm wanting to start posting my NSFW art online in hopes to start making income off comms, but desu I'm a real freak and into shit that's pretty embarrassing (we're anonymous so I'll just admit before anyone asks it's multiple variations of vore). I want people to think I'm two entirely different artists though with no ties to each other because I have aspirations for my SFW stuff that I don't want to get dragged down by my weird fetish shit. How do you guys manage this sort of thing? I'm thinking I would basically have to obtain an entirely different artstyle in order to really make it so nobody questions it if they've happened to see both my works, but I'm worried I'll accidentally end up making sort of a breadcrumb trail between the two by repeating stylistic habits I don't even realize I'm doing. I know I also don't have to hop onto immediately the most cringe worthy of my kinks but I'm betting on targeting a more niche market where there isn't a lot of competition for competence
i am at least 10 different artists
>>8011249Being a degenerate freak infamously comes with the territory of being an artist. Didn't Marvel or someone like that hire a known loli artist? Nobody really cares. There's plenty of SFW youtuber artists who make degenerate fetish porn on the side and they're constantly defended.
believing that you can't ever sucessfully draw anime if you're not japanese is just too depressing to accept but when I look at eol "manga" and artists online that are clearly trying it feels like more often than not it just feels like a store-brand rip-off. I hope its just survivorship bias and i never see real looking anime/manga from a westerner because they are just able to hide that they are westerners
>>8011793>t.riggered resolutionlet
>>8012006>>8011950I personally blame how American pop art culture not only has a weird taboo on copying art as a learning tool (which means begs get stuck in the mines a lot longer than their foreign counterparts), but tends to shame narrowing down your art inspirations in order to develop faster.Every time you see "develop your style!" videos or advice from other artists, their help always boils down to "take general inspiration from a LOT of very different artists all at once" or "take individual stylized facial features/body parts/clothing styles from various artists all at once".You can also look at how capeshit comic artists are encouraged to have more individual styles rather than abide by an in-house style where everyone stays on model (like how they used to) because there's more money to be found in selling art pieces so you'd naturally want your art to look nothing like your competition's.Meanwhile whenever you look at mangaka or Euro/Latin American comic artists, it's always "oh I just copied a few of my favorite manga/comic artists and drew from life". Americans make things so much harder for themselves.
>>8012116>I blame [boogeyman I made up in my head]Post examples of that retarded headcanon happening outside of some tranny bubble you apparently live in
>>8012116So, what are you trying to say? Is homogenized art styles preferable to distinct ones? Define European art styles, please. This reads as if the whole world functions like americans think it does, as if asia and europe each are cohesive units of a same species. This is the absolute most midwit take I've ever read, you really think you've figured out how the art styles and cultural heritage works, huh?
>>8012286I mean if you are trying to fit into a box, in this case anime, it helps to be homogenized
What art piece inspired you to start drawing/painting?
Very much so.
>>8009421
Some kid on a forum was talking shit and flexing fairly mediocre art skills, I decided I would one day mog him.I don't even remember his name or what the drawings look like, for all I know he was actually really good and he's now one of those foreign animators they hire when they want One Piece to look better for five minutes. Or he gave up and got a job at the post office, found a wife and had two kids like everyone else.
>>8009517kek that's a drawing of me
I remember one day I saw Itoh Sei's work and was so awestruck I couldn't draw for a week. Left me wondering wth I was doing with my life when there's someone out there that can draw this well.I'd been drawing before but was just kinda "drifting", since then I've been paddling towards something but I'm not sure what
Glenn Vilppu turned 90 today, and one of the things he says about having a long life is to walk and exercise, which enables him to draw as much as he does in his age.I've started doing the same thing and I think it's really gonna help with my drawing journey.What are some things can you recommend in the day-to-day in terms of longevity?
Why do these boomers live so long while the generations in front of them are dying left and right?
>>8012118As a northern european, life expectancy is pretty long, and quality of life in later years is pretty good. Free healthcare, good social security, bla, bla. It's highly dependent on where you live, I think. Someone growing old in Cambodia will have a vastly different experience than someone in Belgium. The USA is a whole other matter; a coughing fit can be a life or death situation in your later years, and can ruin you financially if you're not careful. Horrid.>>8012216>Boomers built modern society>Wtf, it's not for my benefit?!
>>8011729my life expectation is under 30 years, this nigger is talking about 90 lolrich white faggot privilege
>>8012303genuine question, do you live in the 1500s?

>>8012044I don't know how to go on; she just drew, completely ignoring the center of the facewhere are the eyes? The eyebrows? The forehead? How am I supposed to draw this anatomical disaster properly?
>>8011688This line of logic will always be so funny and stupid considering how much of the animation process in japan isn't done by the japanese anymore. Even if you exclude foreign key animators a good bulk of the inbetween and clean up is being done SEA
>>8012001What? I don't really come to this board, just stating a truthful opinion. He should work on that since he seems to have a few of the basics down.
>>8010867>Hogarth>not anime>Loomis>not animeDoes he know?
>>8012073you illiterate motherfucker, I literally said you could pass if you tried hard enough
They were made to filter retards from flocking to colleges>Anyone can improve in drawingNot really, people who fail at tests like these never improve in drawing in spite of his time invested and hard work.No pirated materials will improve what your genes have fated for your lifeAsian Jeans or Triple Digit IQ, anyone else is destined to be the next Chris Chan
casually makes the meanest post on the entire chan
>>8008983After many years I still struggle with symmetry and proportions and I'm obviously hitting a mental wall, I lack the brain power. It's like doing math on the fly in your head, intelligent people do it faster than me. I am also a complete fuckup in everything else and an actual retard, so the bottom like is just don't be retarded and autistic. If you have a functioning brain you can probably get good at drawing or at least see rewards for your efforts. So I guess it isn't much about talent but being retarded so the opposite. If you're retarded you're just not going to get good. It's just how it is. It's like being born without legs, you can't ecome a ballerina without legs so you have to do something else. If you're retarded you've gotta do things for retards. I don't want to play videogames so I think I'll just kill myself eventually.
>>80089831020Can't solve within reasonable timeCAm I a retard?

>>8012590i second that
Just because you are adv doesn't mean you're perfect. Even some of Rembrandt's sketches are begshit. Look at the faces on these guys.
Yo Rembrandt invented anime?
>>8011789it´s called gesture drawing, crablet
everyone clowning on OP and rightfully so, but it is actual mindset of permabeg that leads to stagnation - every step of the way must be 100% perfect or else you do not deserve to make money or draw your own illustration, and they end up in drawing drawabox for 1000 years and never improving
>>8012447I think the opposite problem is more common, where /beg/s will “just draw” and assume that the gains will come by magic eventually, so they end up just drawing the same deformed anime scribbles over and over for years. Some perfectionism would actually do them some good. Either way, both extremes lead to stagnation
