Not sure why reference pack threads have not been made for a while.

But I desperately need to know the name of the pack that was shared around a year ago with the same model as the following:

https://www.artstation.com/marketplace/p/6kerK/1000-charming-female-poses-for-drawing

I downloaded a bunch of packs but I always default to this model.

I might even buy this one and share it if someone is willing to share that one.

thanks, but I had to rearrange it to a more conventional layout. Originally I thought putting the tablet on its own table would promote focus but it makes effective multi-tasking difficult; if you wanted to lookup reference or having something else going on. Besides the fact that you have to swing your body around to do anything else, often the cursor gets stuck or missing in one of the screens due to confusions of how to navigate it, and its not really worth it to try to form a habit around this setup, not unless I wanted to pair the tablet with its own system, but I don't have spare device to do that right now.

>I've seen a shift in my own art towards tighter and more subtle value ranges
AI may have made it inconvenient to execute on top of now being associated with AI slop, but I'm not going to let it influence my style. I leave my old drawings with shit colors up as a way to show I've been trying to color like this way before AI. I remind myself that I'm on the right track by looking at pre-AI high contrast saturated artwork
>>
>>7858869
I don't think that saturation is a bad thing, I actually embrace it but create room for my midtones to breathe in the smaller ranges I'm working in. You can have extreme saturation and beautiful colors while limiting the values you work within. To me the large value ranges and contrast in values looks too tacky now. I don't want to say it's my eye maturing or anything condescending like that because taste is subjective, it's just something I've been noticing as I look back at my earlier work

I'm beginning to realize why I hate drawing video game characters from 3D games
It's cuz the designers only had to draw a turnaround in A-pose and could add as much shit and lines and greebles for the modeler to put in...

It just doesn't work when doing 2D fanart/illustrations because it's too complex, but omitting a lot of these details kinda ruins the impression of the character...

Hello /ic/!

I've obtained a prescription for (generic) Adderall and wanted to experiment on how it affected learning to draw. I opened this thread to document my progress and for everyone else's observation / amusement.

My goal with this thread is to simply take an Adderall and draw for at least a couple hours a day and post the results. Realistically I may miss some days. The hope is to keep these threads ongoing until I'm either satisfied with the progress documented, or I crash out.

Probable Questions:
>Are you actually diagnosed with ADD / ADHD?
Yes, ADD. I believe inattentive. Been diagnosed since 2003 but never treated long-term.
>How old are you?
31.
>Do you work?
Yes. Full time with a very emotionally draining job.
>Are you on the spectrum?
Undiagnosed but I'm pretty sure. High functioning if so.

I think the first important step is to set up a standard to reach, to have something to look forward to. In my experience, even though it might frustrating, actively struggling to constantly achieve a specific higher standard is the main motivator and guiding star for improvement, it should guide your every practice if you want to improve. Never settle for a subpar results as much as you can basically.
And most of all, deliberate practice.
You're trying to solve a puzzle here, to teach your brain a new language which you can only get to understand through hours of deliberate and focused practice.
The way I got decent at drawing was fairly organic for me, I had family member which already was into drawing and I basically wanted to impress them, then the teachers when I briefly went to art school, and finally the people in my head when I larp as a future skilled artist.
I say this because the mentality you have is the most important factor, as there is not particular secret in regards as to what to learn, outside of the standard stuff.
I'd study everything a little bit, which is almost inevitable anyway, when you study how to draw a human in perspective you're studying anatomy, perspective and gesture all the same time, but even composition really, since composition is always a factor to achieve a pleasant image.
Try to study in a focused manner, focus on something and truly try and understated the shapes or concept of it, do it for hours, over and over again.
And also don't skip on gesture, it's one of the most important skills to me for a truly good draftsman.
It should all be at least mildly pleasant of course, even in the challenging parts of it, it shouldn't be torture but more alike solving a puzzle.
TIL: just take a master of a higher level and copy until you've cracked the code somewhat.

I'm past the point of asking how to learn to draw, I more or less understand the principles (I think)
What I don't get is how to make it fun. Obviously it's better to have fun than forcing yourself. Actually, forcing yourself will never work I think.

But how am I supposed to have fun drawing looking at my shit? In fact I don't even have fun doing the things I like, attempting it on activities I find strenuous seems impossible.

Theres a certain type of artstyle Ive wanted to have since the beginning and without it I dont think I can have fun while drawing cause I know the end result is shit and most importantly unusable.

Something you learn fast when you start by doing OC ask blogs on tumblr back then, no one gives a shit unless it already looks good and it sorta ruins the fun knowing your drawing to share but it existing in an empty ether. Fundi grind continues I guess..

study or power through doesnt matter which one you do first but give the other option a go sometimes. the more time you end up spending working on the stuff that feels almost out of reach the faster you will progress. dont spend more than 30 minutes of your life drawing boxes when there are things that will actually feel very difficult to draw out there that you could be drawing instead unless you have an actual fetish for drawing boxes.

What's the etiquette of taking someone else's abandoned OC?

>>7845599
Create a hit web comic with their OC plastered on front so that they can seethe and screech about someone stealing their design only for them to be drowned out by the noise living the rest of their lives in delusion about how if it weren't for their OC the web comic would have never blown up. Except that would hardly have been the case because otherwise their OC would have been big beforehand and is literally only a character in a story that makes that character relevant thereby making them realize that their precious OCs hold no actual value outside of their friend groups or niche fandoms until someone with the actual capacity to generate value comes along and does something with it. They'll scream at the heavens every day in the comments talking about how the creator of the webcomic would be nothing without them, being repeatedly blocked, reported, or told to shut the fuck up by literally everyone because once again, an OC is worthless in vacuum.

Facts. Goku's character design is the most mid ass generic martial artist in a prison jumpsuit type shit, but because he's the main protagonist of Dragon Ball Z, it wouldn't matter if his name was ching ling ding a ling and had candlestick nipples. People would adore him and the regardless, because they adore the story.

you should ignore what other people think when it comes to art, especially if the people you ignore are shitters, if they are really really good at what they are doing then it might not hurt to listen to what they have to say or maybe try asking them some questions
