>I try drawing again after a long break
>I suddenly remember why I stopped in the first place
Drawing is stupidly hard, even with references, tracing, photobashing and using a shitpost style I still managed to fail. I just wanted to draw a meme with my #78967 generic anime waifu. How many hours does it have to take to draw something simple...

I do like her, which is why I tried. Calling her generic on the other hand is just a realistic.
Like the saying goes: this is my waifu. There are many like it, but this one's mine.

it's not, it's ironic garbage. nobody who loves a character or an anime would disparage them.

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.

I feel like I should be paying this guy quadruple what I am, except for the fact that I can’t afford to, especially when I take into account that I need to commission like, five more pieces from him.
And the exact same thing happened to me before when I used to commission porn. I found an artist here who only charged $35 but had quality that was at least $180 a piece. I commissioned him over ten times and with tip I would pay usually $70, but I ended up feeling so bad for underpaying that I stopped commissioning him altogether.
This is hell.

>>7441909
Thing is that you're giving him constant work, yeah you're probably underpaying him, but that's not your fault if he's a turdworlder. You should talk to him about it
>>
>>7441924
The issue is he’s not a thirdie
>>
>>7441909
It can't be helped if paying him more isn't an option. You could tell him to charge more but if work is slow regardless, that would hurt more than help. The best thing you can do for them is recommending them to other people they might enjoy working with.

Commission work is only financially viable for a tiny percentage of artists, so you shouldn't feel too badly about it. You could pay them triple and it would still be a bad business decision on their part.

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 such
2. 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.

It's not just porn, I see AI art all over the place these days, typically for stuff you wouldn't have hired an artist for anyway. Small businesses will generate their logo, the city will generate backgrounds for posters advertising events and stuff, local bands will have AI images on the cover of their EPs, and half the fucking emails I get at work have shitty AI images in them because there's this bitch who spends her days fucking around on Bing instead of working.

Basically, if 10 years ago you'd have used a stock photo or clipart for something, or paid some guy you met at a bar $50 to draw it, you'll prompt it now.

The economy went down hill and the Jews pretty much open about depopulation now. Art is a luxury that people will think of last. It's a domino circle, 90% of the economy will collapse because AI is significant reduce demands by increasing low quality supplies.
As a result Jews will own everything and goys, including some of their loyal golem own nothing. LA fire is the reward for the loyalty of golems

I dont think people mind if you understand what it feels like, and if youre good at your job and the portfolio reflects it. Also I have had fully tatted bitches that have done this shit for decades absolutely hamfist it and scar shit up bad. Better to look at someones work to judge them, I think.

If you do decide to get into it, don't let the other artists pressure you into getting dumbass shit doodled all over you if you don't want it. Lasering it off hurts like hell.

i cant understand why the fuck anyone would think a curved, freckle/mole covered surface would make a good canvas. sure enough, its the fleshy equivalent of landwhales dying their hair thinking its going make their disgusting selves look more attractive. thankfully gen a doesnt seem interested in tattoos at all.
