Which Craig Mullins painting is this?
From Chapter 7 of his Schoolism course.
Reverse image search yields no results and his site goodbrush.com is currently down.
I also couldn't find it on the internet archive webpages because a few images there are either broken or load infinitely.
Any help would be appreciated!

>Craig Mullins
Ai-shilling cringe boomer, am i right, sisters?

i am myself i am a beginner artist and pretty terrible one maybe i will never improve and give up but this not what i came to talk about rather i want to know about this

what goes in mind of NSFW artist see for example a cute fictional girl and immediately draw porn of her and specially utter disgusting porn like BLACKED,NTR,Futa shit and or turn the cute fictional girl into a completely different character that at point is just some bimbo slut with big breasts who heavily resembles her nothing else nothing more else

I don't get it for you to do this for money or for your pleasure or just the joy of ruining something?

Imagine having the ability to make anything, yet you make slop such as this. At this point, your art is not art at all it is at the same as Aislop.

It has no value. I don't think every single NSFW Artist or Artist that drew porn is the spawn of Satan, but the majority, like 99% percent, of them, are utter garbage.

You’ve mistaken the worship of a death-cult for ‘authentic’ art appreciation. just because some shady sheiks are moving money around on flimsy pretences doesn’t make some highly rendered furry rectum art - nor their makers tastes worth anything. You’re probably one of them. See you at the gooneral.

bro i told you what to do to get better. work on seeing your work neutrally. read through therapy workbooks. find a healthy emotional outlet (ie, exercise). to me, you sound like you're unwilling to do anything because you view yourself as unchangeable and are using your emotions as an excuse to stay stagnant. you do not have to be bogged down by that shit, you can change and get better at art, but continuing to allow your emotions to stop you will result in you not growing. you could use art as a method to train yourself to view things neutrally, or you could keep getting angry everytime you draw something shitty and then procrastionate for a month to avoid getting angry. if you refuse to change your habits, then you're making excuses to stop yourself from getting better.

I've sometimes had similar issues, but instead of looking at tutorials I would just go through art that I found inspiring, yet very seldom actually draw. For me it was the probably the following:
>anxious about doing it right and afraid of drawing something shitty because you've made "being an artist" a part of your self-image
>just playing with the thought because being a great artist whose work everyone admires is a nice fantasy, but actually sitting down and drawing constantly is difficult
Both of these are problems, but you just need to solve them. I needed some way to remove the anxiety and some reward to even out the frustration or I would've never learned to like going through it. People tell others they're ngmi if they don't "enjoy the process" but that's fatalistic and retarded. People don't even "enjoy the process" of jerking their dicks if they're not horny, bored or stressed out, they enjoy it because they get something out of it.
So what do you like about drawing really? What would make you happy to do it? You're not a computer that just needs a command line, you need some way to get your brain into it.

Hi anon, I ordered a wood carving starter kit to play and experiment. It arrives next week, but I thought it would be cool to share this ahead of time in case anyone else wanted to pick one up in order to join in and try a different artistic medium.
I have some ideas about what I want to carve but I haven't really given much thought about how to approach coloring and detail work.
I'm not 100% certain this is allowed on this board, but the rules only say visual artwork and I think this still counts? I apologize if I'm mistaken.

I saw there are some tangentially-related /diy/ posts, but I'm more interested in carving and decorating wooden art pieces rather than creating something utilitarian like a spoon.
Sometimes I dream about little weird looking creatures and I want to try carving them a totem.

>Ligne claire (French: [liɲ(ə) klɛːʁ]; Dutch: klare lijn [ˈklaːrə ˈlɛin]; both meaning "clear line") is a style of drawing created and pioneered by Hergé, the Belgian cartoonist and creator of The Adventures of Tintin. It uses clear strong lines sometimes of varied width and no hatching, while contrast is downplayed as well.
The image on the wiki page has tons of variation, clear line not "one-weight line." Mignola is the only good example so far but that's balanced out by massive use of blacks in inking and his style.

>>7782048
There's line weight variation all over that image. Actual monoweight illustrations look very boring unless the artist is oozing with appeal. Usually it only works for anime girl or cutesy "comfy" tumblr type art. It ends up looking like stock commercial clip art made in a vector program being overly stiff since even the best use of interrupted lines is carefully planned out.

If you don't have a good or distinctive drawing style, removing line weight is going to hold you back and stunt your fundamental development

>>7782066
Another scanned image from paper with tons of line weight in the original, would've been more soulful if it were full grayscale and not the b&w for an art book

If you're looking at a potential piece for studying wondering "what can I learn from this?" then now's not the time to do a study. Studies are for when there's something specific that you know you want to learn from a drawing. Not something broad like "I want to learn their linework", go in with something very specific you're hoping to come out with. "Those lines that seem thickest in the middle and thinner on their extremities seem neat, I'll do a study of this and try to get them to look nice like theirs" is more like how you should be approaching studies. That's how you actually learn from studies. If you don't know what you're trying to get from a study, then don't. Go make some of your own work until you find something specific you want to learn from a study.
>>
>>7782438
By corners I mean where lines intersect. They get thicker there due to ink being absorbed by the paper, its a good effect that I'm trying to replicate on digital.

it has very good value read as "a face" and would be considered a good sketch without knowing who your ref was, but it has poor likeness to bateman/christian bale

What is /ALT/?
If you're looking for a place to post your cartooning then you've found the right general. This is /ic/s 1st and only merged hub where both Eastern and Western stylization can coexist peacefully, hence the double title.
>Rules & Guidelines
(1) Any form of cartooning is welcome; so submit and receive feedback from others. (2) Please resize your images before posting. (3) Share your knowledge and (4) Remember to not be afraid of asking for critique. Most importantly, keep discussion at a civil level.
>I came for anime. Why does the image OP say cartoons general?
To distinguish from the anime study thread (janitor supported). Please post your studies there and personal work goes here.
