Is it really just coming up with an idea and acting on it? I find it incredible how people on /i/-oekaki can simply come up with a cool looking OC and background. I can barely imagine something and draw it.I quit drawabox too. I felt like that course was draining what little motivation I had
>>7946247what if I lost the soul along the way?
>>7945748>>7946004
>>7946335I don't think it's something you can ever truly "lose". It's something your born with and people rarely if ever transition from one class to the other.
>>7946247There’s no such thing as the soul. Go cry to your magical sky daddy, christard.
>>7945554I just revisited /i/ it's been a long time, feel like I drowned in an ocean of sovl
i like to draw little fucktards
i drew butt
>>7949245lmfao how did you make this? after effects or davinci resolve?
>>7950756i animate using aseprite! ^^
>>7950753I love it so much. I want it for my very own.
i drew a dance scene idk if its good
>drawing goes viral>thousands of likes and reposts>not a single new followerwhat's the point
>>7951741is it a meme drawing? Then don't expect a follow unless you constantly put out meme drawings that constantly goes viral where people will recognize you then you will get followers. For fanart, unless you actually have a decent or somewhat unique artstyle then don't expect followers from that as well.
>>7951810From a consoomer of my xitter feed, this is my POV. If I like someone's art, I first check their posts before following. If I like 1 or 2 more works from what I see I hit follow. I will immediately back out and NOT follow if all I see is words words words from the artist who xeets their opinions about random shit. Same if they post a bunch of shit like what they ate at a restaurant x1000. Why do they think anyone cares? Also if 90% of your posts are rexeets from others I'll just follow them then if they aren't guilty of the shit above.
>>7951741That's just how algorithms work now. Just look at youtube trying to outright suppress the subscription tab now since every channel gets most of their views from non subs in current year. Despite the fact they crafted the algorithms to have that kind of result. Other websites also clearly follow this trend. The other posters also make a good point. If I see a piece I like, usually for a specific characters but it's clearly a one off, i'm not dropping a follow. God forbid if there's a ton of non art stuff (food pics) in their media tab. Usually because I'll have the mindset of not wanting to risk the chance of what I do like getting diluted. Every potential follow becomes a gamble in what gets retweeted too.
>>7953653Yes, another one is if their media tab is POLLUTED with reaction gifs/memes in various threads they were having a conversation in. Why do they do this?For the food pics it's always funny/sad to me that their art gets tons of likes, and their random food pic of goyslop they ordered at some fancy restaurant gets like 2 likes.>>7951741OP, does your xitter account fall victim to any of these?
>>7951741Because the social media/follower model of art consumption is retarded. Just because someone likes a piece of art you have done does not mean they want to follow and be subjected to whatever other random shit you post. I fucking hate that actual art gallery websites, with actual categories and useable search to narrow things down to specifics have fallen out of fashion and now it's all endless scrolling feeds of random unrelated bullshit.Even DeviantArt (before they ruined it with the "redesign") was better than the shit situation we find ourselves in now.
Even Yusuke Murata, a god artist, spams eraser.
His pen grip is sub-optimalt. the pen grip nazi
>>7952155Now that is an unexpected flex. I'm impressed.
I find his art to be amazing but also extremely sterile for some reason, the digital one to be precise. Dunno if it's because it looks too perfect.
>>7951128I need this for the sake of keeping my recordings under 1 gorillion gb
>>7951013What am I supposed to do if I can't use the eraser? If it looks like shit I'm gonna erase until it's good.
What's your favorite piece of fine art?

Do you really think it’s possible to make drawing as fun as a video game, like she says?
>>7932888>>7933774You think she shaves or does she let it jungle out down there?
>>7950401Amazon rain forest
>>7932838yes
>>7950312>tldr
You niggers are allergic to discipline. Everything has to be a game, it has to have a reward besides the process itself. Sometimes I wonder if you troglodytes even have any education or jobs that require basic willpower to build and maintain without breaking down.

>>7955230Thank you!>>7955350Hmm. I'm mostly fine with that since I do want her to have a slim waist, but perhaps a little bit of attention to the sides wouldn't hurt. Thank you.>>7955489Yeah I seem to struggle with stiff poses from time to time. Not sure how I should go about it yet. Thank you for the compliment on the lines though, that's one of the things I struggle the most with.>>7955525Yeah I struggled a bit with the overall balance of detail. I'm hoping that I can remedy that a little with the lighting and color. Thanks for the advice about the ground though, that's not something I usually consider.

Paint fags how do i make it better? like how do i make the shirt look like a shirt instead of painting of a shirt ?
>>7955642I was supposed to be working on my comic but I drew this instead
>>7921326Hi guys, I usually post on the /beg/ / /int/ thread, where do I sit?I wanna revisit this painting I made a while ago, I still struggle with pushing my values when coloring drawings in and want to know how I can improve
>>7940182Drew champloo
Why is getting core good illustration skills before working on any sort of comic/manga you want to show to the public discouraged over here? I especially see it the most on /mmg/ where "storytelling is more important" sometimes is used to excuse subpar to just mediocre visuals, when a good comic in my opinion should do well in both
>>7952315I reiterated several times in my post that normies have piss poor standards, you can keep seeing self improvement as a bad thing or a hassle you have to jump over before becoming rich or you can go make your stick figures to post on webtoon or mangaplus. Everyone else's drawing dogshit to please the normies, right? You can make it with drawing some solo leveling isekai slop for koreans right now and pay the electricity bill for your entire village>>7952315>The opposite. Even in Japan, many artists who are successful today once drew their first doujins full of issues and bad art. They literally copy manga pages when they are young.Yes, I agreed with that from the start. They learned from copying and improved. I'm not the one vendettafag that fucked your wife>Stagnation is trying to be a perfect artist before doing comics. Retard read "put in effort" and understood it as "be perfect at drawing before starting a comic". Nobody's reading from the mangaplus shortbus squad nigger
>>7952373I know you're not throwing shade at stickfags right now nigga
>>7952347>Btw /mmg/ threads used to last much longer in the past, when it was mostly comic makers who would post a page and disappear only to post again days later.I really believe /mmg/ has more work posted in it these days than ever before, and I've been in those threads from the beginning.
>>7952419I think its in waves, right now its productive but our biological clocks will all burn out at the same time
>>7953218More like some retard shows up and starts some /pol/schizo shit and everyone treats it like a break to vent some frustration at him for 100+ posts
ITT pencils only you like

>>7855593out of these the pitt matte is the one i like the least, but it still has a place in there>>7918024i found those awful simply because I couldn't erase as well as I wanted to when compared to, for example, Pilot Color Eno
>>7950063also i tried blackwing, staedtler, faber, derwent, etc. as well but these are definitely my favoritesblackwing was fine until you compare it to the Tombow and Mitsubishi ones, those two are the ones I'd suggest people to get, grafwood is a personal preference but also real good
>>7933145>>7856949They're actually not that bad. Just more on the light side of shade.

>>7953299thomas bertlingthat's why the freehand ellipse is so sloppy tooscott would never
Scott Robertson is so cool
>>7953277Oh no no noThat book is a complete meme. It will teach you some neat tricks for drawing vehicles but that's about it.For drawing people it's pretty worthless.
Close the book the moment you see this kind of stuff. Drawing isn't something you solve with math equations. You are supposed to rely on your intuition that comes from drawing a lot. These books are for people who think their made-up aphantasia can be compensated for with rigid rules and diagrams.
they are made for high iq artists (i.e. asians), who then go on to repackage the same information in 30h coloso coursesidiots won't get anything out of themhttps://youtu.be/Wy_4g-jTkgY?t=396
I'm trying to learn to draw good stylized cartoon / anthro mice. I'm looking for ones that retain the mouse shape, NOT usual furry/anthro where its a humanoid anatomy/proportions. More like the example picture (Bianca from The Rescuers).Good examples:- Secret of Nimh- The Rescuers- Timothy from DumboCan you post any more examples of this style of mouse character, or name/link any artists who regularly draw these types?
>>7949590Ovopack
I think both co and trash have mouse threads, if you ask nicely I'm sure an anon can point you to some more artist that do sfw mice.If youre here I assume you can scroll pass porn you dont like if you ask /trash/.

>>7952637I’m pretty sure those were all studies and nothing really from imagination. In which case it’s pretty whatever
Why are you gatekeeping drawing with bad advices, /ic/chuds? Stop recommending fundies, perspective, anatomy! I don't like them. My favorite twitter grifter said "just be yourself everything is your style!" I like his advice more. Fuck you crabs
>>7948837AI doesn't make such mistakes. He probably made that on his own and ignored the AI's correct approach, or he tried to change the pose and fucked up.
>>7948873if you weren't a nodraw you'd know it's trivial to see if someone is faking their art process
>>7948873>The only real way to prove any form of validity in this day and age is have people see you actually creating in real lifejust have the artist draw on magma or something. if they can't do that (hop onto magma for 30 minutes and draw a quick sketch) then it's likely ai
>>7949223Howies can't be artist because they never draw.
>>7948798regardless of various advice, 'tutorials' and do/dontsi avoid people who post such stuff on twitterwithout all the nuances and reason explicitly statedthat is what i consider a behaviour with low epistemic honestly especially with the fact how fuzzy can art befollowing is my biased assuming but it means:they haven't thought about what art is at the most basic sense, and they have balls to call themselves an 'artist'tldr to me it's a bad signal regardless of their actual skill or knowledge

>>7953023>>7953026also, just to hammer your worthless nigger asshole in>built over 4000 Data Centers specifically for supporting AI infrastructure>specifically for supporting AI infrastructuredumb streetshitting curry nigger
>>7953026>>7953027ehhh, in that regard you would still be wrong, because like I said before Data Centers are still being built as we speak, sorry goyim.
>has built>erm uhhh well they're being built!>ignores the fact the vast majority of announced datacenters meant to be built this year haven't even broken ground, couldn't be finished by year's end if they started yesterday, wouldn't have chips for years regardless and couldn't be powered if they were built in the first placewhy are turdies like this
