>>8051968literal skaven mindset-mentality, yes-yes
>>8052390Fair, but considering I'm the only one confident enough to post my work, I still stand by my advice >>8052583:)>>8052782Loomis, fun with pencil, once I got the jist I just copied artists I liked, I tried krenz, but I feel that's better for super accuracy I've never really hard studied - mainly I just draw for fun, I dont post my work elsewhere but here because drawing is just a thing I do for myself
>>8051939Obviously i would not waste my time again drawing like fucking child, so don't start op.
>break up contact to all of my "friends" so I can concentrate on myself>get internet as soon as possible>read a lot of books/short stories/artbooks/guides/etc>watch internet guide videos>learn construction/perspective as soon as possible>draw daily and actually do what you want to do

Submit an art teacher then let /ic/ scale their power level.We scale new and old teachers here.We scale them based on how well they can teach. That's it.(Also not my actual tierlist btw)
>>8047258In your opinion, who would be the best to actually learn to draw from imagination?My problem is that after I see how to do some figure drawing, whenever I try without reference it all falls apart.>>8052493I didn't know Steve Huston had a course.
>>8052894>whenever I try without reference it all falls apart.you should accept it to some extend
>>8052899To what extend? I am completely unable. I'd like to improve, somehow.
>>8047625Loomis is required reading even if his books alone will not teach you how to draw.
>>8050532good illustrations to copy. He's one of the best at that front lighting

>>8052737if the shekel per goyim index is too low you produce lower quality work. Time is a function of days not hours for humans and if you want somthing that looks raelly nice the person making it has to get lots of regular sleep and other normal nigga things or their work will suffer.There's a reason china cannot produce swiss quality watches. Happy Humans work much better, but much slower as a result. and third worlders are not happy.
>>8053029the days thing is so true. i can draw for 5 hours and get a lot done, or I can draw for one hour, I'm still tired the same amount at the end of the day.
>>8053055I wish I had learned it earlier. When i was younger I did 5 hours a day once a week cuz of my schedule. Had I been smarter I'd worked to make one hour a day five days a week possible.
3d modeling is literally magici also dont know why they can't just make a fully original, realistic and rigged 3d model with 20.000 different preset expression and poses in just 8 hours
I am too retarded to go from left to right. Fuck I cant even draw left because I cant draw proportions most of the time and shit comes out looking like Quasimodo.Is this shit really what I need to stop being a permabeg?How do YOU draw a face in 3d?
>>8050766as noob i always do it like this...
>>8050766there is no "anime head construction" its a cartoon, things are exaggerated for effect without regard for what it would look like if it was a 3d object
N-nobody helped me...
>>8051448Like the OP image you start with a box. View the head as a box and not just a sphere and draw it from various angles, getting the perspective right. As a beginner you are not going to be able to tell whether the boxes are perfect or not, so also copy photos or even anime heads, but instead of just copying the 2d shapes try to draw a box around them and work out how the box perspective interacts with facial features.Once you see improvement increase the complexity of the box. Add brows, cheeks, and jaws. Increase the complexity until you get the Asaro head. The asaro head will be your new best friend. Draw it from every angle. Draw it from memory. Compare it to photos and even anime heads and see how the planes fall into place.Marco Bucci has a decent head drawing course on how the various features interact and are arranged into a cohesive 3d shape, but it's paid.
>Not a single anon has posted their workAmazing.
What would exactly happen if you first learn how to draw in a detailed western comic book art style before switching to an anime-based one?
You'll go from making great art to shitty art.
>>8044361That was me pretty much. Well it depends on what kind of artist you are. Some westerners struggle with learning an anime style
>>8044361It will get easier to delve into composition if you're working with manga-style elements and 135kg kent paper instead of bristol. Your work will also read faster if you adopt manga technique of panelling.
>>8044361your premise has no content
interesting
im drawing johnny joestar in the pose from the end of the trail sculpture, because nobody has done that yet. i'm not sure if i'll ever finish it but i wanted to share it with someone nonetheless
Anyone else see AI stuff flooding art marketplaces? Touristy places like this are now filled with AI art for sale, probably because they get to keep 100% of the profits. They also don't disclose it's AI, is this reportable somehow? For all the talk about solidarity with artists, there doesn't seem to be any in real life.
>>8052804>problem is that you're not legally obligated to label something as slopI'm surprised there isn't a effort from the conservative side of politics to ban AI in the arts outright.If one of the core arguments against immigration is that it's damaging to the culture of the country, then so too should they be concerned about the damage that AI will cause.
>>8052814Because the people up top never gave a fuck about any of that, it was always about enriching themselves. The people down below who do care about immigration aren't smart enough to think about these things and haven't been given the marching orders from Fox News or Joe Rogan.
>>8050397Saw it on a chinese restaurant, just the most obviously AI cute chinese girls framed on the wall outside. Tackier than wallpaper. Imagine seeing a displate metal poster in a museum, thats the feeling it gives.
>>8050397i hate this shit. Idk about the rest of the internet retards but i remember when the aibros were being faggots and saying "break the pencil" and "ai art is superior, it does things better and faster" with cunts 'improving' artists art without permissionand now because of the backlash that they themselves generated (lol), they try to hide their ai slop as real.they're the bootleg dvd sellers of the modern age but they think their bootlegs should be worth as much as a retail copy of the movie.for obligatory food analogy, if McDonalds wanted $30 for 2 buns and a paper thin patty like they're some 5 star dining experienceneed a metronome meme for aibros>delusional gloating>begging for acceptance
>>8052814i figured that AI slop would become the corn syrup or seed oils of the entertainment industry: it's everywhere because it's cheap, and the average person will consume it, but its mere inclusion is results in negative opinions from consumers and at least some people will go out of their way to avoid it. thus, brands will try their hardest to minimize visibility of slop usage
So like a few months ago.I made a thread where I asked if I can get a higher quality version of the newest bridgman complete guide to drawing from life. Because the other more popular newer one sucked ass compared to the older bridgman books. Then some kind anon offered me it but only if I post my work on bridgman. So, I did.https://warosu.org/ic/thread/7985647Then after getting my hands on it. I did some research, which I discovered that this particular version doesn't exist on all book piracy sites. Which means that anon and I have been holding what is essentially "lost media". At first I was excited, but that means If I deleted this file then that it would be lost forever. So, I uploaded it online as of right now. https://www.mediafire.com/file/q30jzfp6bnzbbnq/George+Bridgman+-+Bridgman's+Complete+Guide+to+Drawing+From+Life+(5th+Edition).pdf/fileHowever, it isn't enough. I wanted this to be first spread around to /ic/ then onto most popular book piracy sites.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
I remember that thread and I downloaded that copy so it lives on a couple hard drives somewhere
>>8052370>lost media>available on amazon
>>8052370I bought a copy. copied it twice. and now I am a draw god.
>>8052370I assume the link is malware?
complete guide isn't that great because it attempts to be a one-stop shop for everything but falls short because it can't fit everything in, go with the individual books and maybe have complete guide on the side as a reference book
How to make my art look like 2000s very amateur and low tier dA style art? I think my art looks like that automatically without trying, but how to capture the feeling more directly?
>>8052830I mean it was indeed but it became mostly "big" in early 2010s, like your "feels" more 2010s (at the least 2008-9) rather than early - mid 2000s, but you got saturation part right because much of 2000s I've seen is less saturated
draw everything in flash
>>8052827Itβs literally defined by its lack of skill, so just open up MS Paint and do whatever
>>8052827Are you a fan of lazerbot?
>>8052827>no no it's SUPPOSED to look badIronic. In trying to mimic whimsical sincerity, you expose your overdone, self-aware, meta, getting ahead of the insults zillennial mindset.
Not feeling motivated anymore >zero likes.>zero money.>zero popularity.I'm not having fun anymore. What should I do?
>>8052426You sound like some bitch he ain't called?
>>8052446you sound like some troon nobody asked ?
>>8035145I draw for myself. I have fun simply enjoying the act of drawing.
>>8052491For who?
>>8052391First you gotta have muscles. Then, you gotta have muscles, on your muscles! You gotta have muscles on your eyeballs.
Wgat are some good examples of sketchbook inking that you've seen?How do you guys approach inking?Ive been mostly relegated to pen and paper as of late since I cant find my tablet ever since I moved in with my gf, gonna buy a new one
>>8038303Nice picHow long do you copy, how do you apply it to your own work, and what are some major things to remember abiut paper inking (at least from your experience this far)?
>>8038076I use Sakura microns to ink. And fill in the other inks and color digitally
>>8038575Reminds me of a wojak
>>8038076i first lineart with brush pens (either water based when i'm not using watercolors or water proof ink for when i plan to color with watercolors later) or technical pen and then i fill the black shadows with my synthetic sable point brushes.
>>8049633>>8046480Thanks fellas
