How ? I don’t understand this, how to draw cubes in a rotation from different sides?
>>
>>7440653
Perspective is not a one-time crap, it is a problem that will filter you out and you will forever spit on the idea of drawing. If you can’t draw boxes in perspective, that means you can’t draw people’s figures in perspective, etc.

tldr; there are certain points in the scene where the angle you can measure with a protractor is the same as the angle in perspective. You can use these to get angles to get precise, measurable angles to vanishing points to draw things accurately from whatever angle you want. Read Chapter 2 of Scott Robertson's How to Draw.

The real-real answer, is don't worry about it. Just make a grid and guess based on the grid. No one cares if your perspective is slightly off.
>>
A big part of perspective that filters prebegs is that people use terms like "any angle" as if it were automatic so PBs grind and then get frustrated when they can't draw simple perspectives of titmonsters or whatever, forgetting the fact that you actually need to have a 360 degree memory of the things you want to draw in perspective.

I dunno, people struggle with boxes too. Not even cubes, just dimensionless boxes.

Only the best ones get awarded the mark of the "anime girl album cover". It's just regular 2000-2010 tech trance but for some reason the best creators were obsessed with anime girls. They also usually feature high pitched voice samples which further emphatizes it.

What are your unpopular art opinions?

Mine is that I think that you should always begin a portrait drawing with a skull or it should be drawn at some point during the process, and I think any other method that doesn’t include the skull will end up anatomically inaccurate

Rendering is a crutch for bad drawing skills, anime girls on a white void is fine, the face is the hardest part of the body to get right.

People who shit on rendering are actually incapable of rendering at a high level so they attack it as a cope for their inability.

Put it this way: Amazon brands are always the best selling 3rd party brands. If someone brings a product to the Amazon marketplace and it sells well with great reviews, Amazon will buy it out, call it "Amazon Whatever" and sell it as their thing. Sometimes they make bootleg versions of the product but most of the time they find it easier to just scoop up whatever is already going on and rebrand it.

How could you achieve success and reach at least the highest /beg/ level without talent ?
30 replies and 4 images omitted. Click here to view.

>>7440618
I made millions of mistakes but it doesn't matter because I was three drawing dolphins and dinosaurs in my walls.
That's "talent". It's all the training people did without realizing they were training. The million times the wrote letters to their friends before trying to write their first essay. The million songs they hummed before picking a guitar. The million doodles they carved into their school desk. The million times they threw a ball in their backyard.

If you squandered your youth and don't enjoy what you're doing enough to fail a million times, you're done. Quit. There's no way to get good at any skill without failing.

>I’m still worse at natural and technical sciences, I should at least somehow learn to draw
You're under the false impression that everyone is good at something.
That's high school teen drama thinking. Most people aren't good at anything because they never put real effort and dedication into anything and they're inherently defective so they need to try ten times as hard anyway so they'll never achieve anything more than being a wagecuck.
The dumber and older you are the more devotion you need to apply to learning a skill. And to be honest, you need to be in love with the skill for real or you'll just burn out and become yet another schizo howie seeking secret shortcuts that don't exist.

Why does anime look good and enjoyable to look at, but then when you draw it it looks so so bad? What are these proportions? Why is it that even though i am aware how fucked up it looks for some reason it doesn't bother me when looking at it? But then when ~I~ draw it all those things look so damn pronounced like what the fuck are these shapes?

I'm watching that EXACT video right now.

But I do it because if I watch an actual artist who is drawing in the background, I feel like I'm missing out on something if I'm not giving them my full attention
So, it just makes me not focus on what I'm drawing if they are actually talented
