Do not underestimate the power of the chalkboard, anons. It’s like an infinite piece of paper. I mean this seriously when I say the chalkboard has completely transformed my art. I started doing it once I saw will Weston’s anatomy studies and demonstrations mostly in chalk, and how he said “it’s about the amount of bodies you draw”, not the quality of each one. I now see why: the chalk board is the perfect anti perfectionism tool. Nothing you draw on it matters, causing you to become less attached to the result and more to the process. You can use it to warm up, take notes while you draw, or just plan. The various colors can be helpful for differentiating body parts during anatomy studies, learning color combinations, simple and complex rendering techniques, any general experimenting. The chalkboard is probably one of the most important tools for trad artists especially and im sure digital artists could find a place for it as well
>watches a video where the teacher uses a chalkboard>omg i need a chalkboardngmi
>>7305490you’re like 4 to 5 years late . weston used to be shilled here all the time during the pandemic until all his courses got ripped
>>7305495>>7305501mb i wasnt familiar with the lore
>>7305320drawing on chalkboard is fun. easy to shade and really tactile and i like that sort of thing. if you owned one it would probably get really messy though, and if its small enough to hold like that youll probably inhale a lot of chalk

>There is one thing not to do, and that is simply to drift along with the daily routine, making no extra effort. You will soon find yourself middle-aged, having done nothing more than routine jobs, and being little farther along than you were years ago. The extra effort is the difference between the great mass of mediocre artists and the comparatively small group of very good ones.>And in Art, study can never stop. You will find sketches galore in the studio of the good man, with the paint quite fresh. The mediocre artist's sketches are old and dusty.>I have seen so many middle-aged artists still hoping, whose samples are frayed at the edges, and thumb-marked with time. Sometimes it has been a matter of years since they sat down and actually did something to give their hopes any promise. They are plodding their lives away at something they hate, and doing nothing about it. These are the men who never seem to have had a chance.

don't know what to draw on her chest, I'll figure it out eventually.
How can I "combine" two pictures too see my mistakes ? I don't have a digital tablet, I'm drawing in a trad way.
Previous Thread: >>7196009This is a thread for those who want to go study dynamic sketching as a group in an effort to improve their drawing skills starting from the very fundamentals. Here we share the tedious grind, crit and encourage each other.Please specify the week and course you're on when posting your work.>What is Dynamic Sketching? The Dynamic Sketching is an approach to sketching that focuses on:>Closely observing life to inspire sketches.>Breaking down complex objects into simple forms.>Building confidence using permanent mediums like pen and toned paper.>The importance of conveying ideas visually.This method helps artists create expressive and energetic sketches.First developed by Norman Schureman, an influential teacher at ArtCenter.

part 1 of drawing all plants at home.first plant is the one that defeated me previously here >>7295854the tip of the other anon was incredibly helpful in general, observing the plant more thoroughly and doing multiple sketches of details before starting.started using copic markers (sketching greys) , they are a lot easier to cover big areas than the staedtler fineliners.
Starting Week 11 - Drawing Military Vehicles
3 plants for today and 2 lil' mushrooms. I wish other anons would post plants too, It's just me and two other guys here who are way ahead of me. I should've saved the previous thread, there were plants there.
More tanks. Back to the gimmick brushes.>>7304209Here's the link to the archive of the old thread if you want it.https://warosu.org/ic/thread/7196009
part 3will probably not make it in time before the leaves start falling. Not that it matters, I like drawing plants that are more beat up like I did today.The texturing on the big on on the 2 leaves closest by made it look worse. Probably should've taken a thinner one than the 0.3 mm used for all the rest, or textured it less (only on the part of the leaf closest by.>>7305259thanks. I guess in the charles hu version plants occur way later too.>>7305259
Official artwork from Valve's newest game Deadlock. What do you think?
>>7305419>AI bait threadBut it's from the game? Are you saying that Valve would use AI?

They have decent designs. The models somewhat reflect what they do, not quite as good as TF2, but 100 times better than Concord.>>7304955yeah they changed her weapon from this. It looks like a neopunk crossbow.>>7305458Good Yamato looks so generic.
>>7304919i like them but i also just like the neo noir theme. the actual game setting looks bland though, the concepts look more interesting

How does one go about drawing the weird shape of the pussy?
>>7302615He could've just said that then.I don't agree with that claim, but I'm willing to accept that other people hold it, and I won't argue against it.His whole spiel about "you're gay for liking futas because futas are men" was incredibly inane.

>Sells an "Anatomy for artists" course>Has a lot of filler medical information only doctors care about.
I actually think prokos method is a great way to master anatomy but he failed in making it into a course rather than encouraging experimentation. You need to come up with your own construction and do lots of figure drawing where you draw the bones underneath a subject.
>>7305044Also buy a skeleton
Why go with Stan when you can learn anatomy from guys like Scott Eaton, Rey Bustos or Will Weston?
>>7305073I felt I got more out of Stans course than I did Rey Bustos
>>7304182What is the filler medical information?
Thoughts on this guy?https://youtube.com/@drawlikeasir?si=gT7qQJLezFo4LmOE
the youtube art community is honestly so cooked
>>7305103>Also how he acts in his videos is exactly the same as how he acts irl, so he is genuine.I think he has actually mentioned something like that in one of his videos, yeh. I personally don't see much of a problem with it if that's what the zoomies are into. Keeps it from being a boring college lecture.
>>7300438artists who fall for these shitty tutorials are kept back by years. It cuts off competition for me. Good on him
>>7305255I like how you seem to think it would be a large enough pool of competition to actually matter.
>>7305257I can appreciate the little things in life
I’ll draw 6 hours per day from various references including morpho book and see how far I can progress after a few weeks
>>7302569I was sick today, I'll draw what I want.>>7302805Welcome back! You've really improved!
>>7303769Thanks!
>>7303769no time to draw today, just some doodles.
>>7304939Not sure if I'll have time to draw today, so I did this when I had a minute. Hope everyone is having a good day.
I found Snoopy cartoon inPinterest and I copy it to learn how to draw (I learn by copying)Ty for coming to my TED talk
>>7303980This goes hard OP. Ive been drawing for 10+ years and I can tell you this is the purest form to make and enjoy art. Keep at it
>>7304138Looks like someone's been practicing their boxes.
i like your lines
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.Old general resoruces (hopefully these ones aren't empty):>Scott Robertson's How to Drawhttps://e-hentai.org/g/1588796/313b11d676/https://www.mediafire.com/file/a315b5xfrhmdhc2/Scott_Robertson_-_How_to_Draw.pdf/file>Scott Robertson's How to Render: the fundamentals of light, shadow and reflectivityhttps://e-hentai.org/g/1552736/5879054cf3/>Cache of /m/ artbooks (Patlabor, Gunbuster, Muv-Luv, etc.)https://mega.nz/folder/VBVDBICa#B9RTAhBwyo63KRJ_tTn9EAComment too long.

>>7124169Just keep it as is, maybe you can add some venting that resembles fish gills or some rivet and weld marks across the body. Once it's flying around in space it's a spaceship anyways
So few anons paint with real paint. Post your acrylic or oil paintings here. No drawings or digital. Bonus points for nude or sexual art, that's mostly what i make.image is mine. Acrylic, hoping to finish it soon.
