The Old Masters are revered for their paintings, but this thread is to appreciate their drawings.Here is Rembrandt's "The Actor Willem Ruyter as St. Augustine" (c. 1638).
>>7730988Pretty sure in the /ic/ torrent there is an image collection of these ancient master drawings.
many of Rembrandt's etchings are available on Google Art & Culture: https://artsandculture.google.com/entity/rembrandt/m0bskv2where you can also find many other high-quality reproductions, from a wide variety of artists.there was at some point a cache with gigabits of old drawings and paintings somewhere, not sure where it is. as far as books are concerned, the difficulty is to find ones with good quality reproductions. look for books made by artists, museum staff and the like.don't forget that collecting thousands of drawings won't make you good. carefully study OP's drawing for a few hours on the other hand, would benefit you greatly
>>7731410Trying to copy Old Master drawings is a good idea as well. A very humbling experience.
>>7731410>>7731517pyw
>>7731790I don't like posting my stuff here, /ic/ is not exactly something you're proud to visit. there's so much garbage around here>>7730988thinking about it, I saw a few books in local shops. but wouldn't recommend buying them for studying. most of those drawing are sketches, or preliminary works. they have value, but are generally sub-efficient for learning purposes
Whats the fastest way to keep consistent sprite scale across multiple sprites and backgrounds?
I really like your threads anon please keep this up, very nice
Is there much of a point in doing portrait drawings for concept art?
It's been fascinating to watch the style evolve over the years

What's exactly stopping you from doing the same?
>>7729664Less talentLess motivationLess disciplineLess Asian genesMore obesity
>>7730029>pussied out of boxing, muay thai, mma and kickboxingThese have a high risk of breaking your hand>picked up faggshit like CapoeiraComparatively lower risk of breaking your handFor a guy who draws for a living the choice is obvious
>>7729715>gets his comic published anywayFUCKING HYPOCRITE GERARD WAY YOU CANT HAVE A SUCCESSFUL BAND AND GET A COMIC TOO YOU FUCK
>>7729764Except his art at the beginning looked like this

Is there a particular reason you cant learn to draw using your left side of the brain?I know the right side is the one everyone desires, but most people can't use it 100% everytime.So why not learn to draw using the analitical side of the brain?I think I can draw nicely taking into account I still use my symbol drawing skills.
>>7709692GAY
yeah well
yeah…
Did you reach a point where you realized "improving more" will be a net sovl loss?
>>7728905It's an actual flaming rod. Someone definitely touched himself to this.
>>7728900I'd rather see porn with the style on the left honestly.
>>7720608>>7720728You guys may not like it, but he's the only artist I've seen who's drawing more like how all online anime art looked in the late 2000's/early 2010s. Like that Frieren looks like it could be in a Nightcore video. I love it very much.
>>7730857No it couldn't. It's way too bright for nightcore.
this is actually more of a result of chasing after trends and less so a result of losing 'soul'.the guy found his niche originally in sci-fi punk art but punk became gayer and gayer to appeal to fujos and troons and decided to do the same thing.
There's a lot to art improvement that goes beyond just drawing and thinking about art. Your brain has to be healthy, stimulated and ideally your life should be low on stress. What should one do to improve his brain in ways that affect the ability to create good art? Does learning a new language or some other skill help? Have you noticed doing something completely unrelated to art and still growing artistically?
>>7728155okay wise guy what if I get no sleep, can't afford good food, don't have the energy to cook, and don't want to exercise? what's option four?
>>7728048I find that at least 8 hours of video games a day improves my stress level which helps me draw better
>>7728698Gaining life experience. Ideally, traveling. Try getting short-time work in a variety of fields. Go to places you wouldn't normally go and talk to the people there. Pick a random direction in your town and just walk. Just do things and see what happens.The next thing I would suggest is reading books.
>>7728876Games are so boring, anon. How do you manage it.
>>7728053DrawaboxUhh, more drawabox and art tuber courses i think

2021 HUION KAMVAS 16 any good? was thinking about that or spending a lil less for the XPPEN artist 13.3 inch
>>7730876As someone who uses a display and screenless tablet I think there are benefits to both. I ink much faster on a display tablet and I have a better color range that I use to calibrate my other monitors, and screenless tablets are better for sketching since there's less input lag and I can use it as a replacement for my mouse which feels more comfortable. I think the big draw for display tablets is that it's more like physically drawing so if you come from a traditional art background you can paint in a way that's natural to you, kinda like how graphic tablets went from digitizer pucks to a stylus because that's more intuitive. But if you're using a tablet without a screen and you're satisfied there's really no need to spend money on a display, it's just a preference that some have.
what is the cheapest visual tablet that isnt absolute garbage?I have a screenless and i hate how it isnt imprecise, you always keep having to redo your lines to the point i've just bought lots of pens and paper and started going trad.I plan buying a visual tablet in the future so i will probably have to save up for them but which ones you guys recommend?
It's Friday nite /ic/ watcha listening to? Watcha working on?
proko podcasts atm. they're pretty goodany other good art podcasts out there, let me know
>>7731890Renard's Fuck You Kids is okay
The general thread for Manga / manga-styled comic-making, manga-style illustration and related comic work. That said, everyone is welcome here.Support each other and talk about your work or the work of others that excites you. Inking, character design, paneling / layout, writing, planning, and other discussions are all welcome.Post resources, questions, in-progress pages, breakdowns of other works, etc. If a work is not yours, credit the maker (unless it's fucking obvious like a full page of One Piece or something).Thanks to everyone for making /mmg/ a level-headed and helpful place. Remember, drawing and making comics and manga are difficult endeavors, and we're all in this struggle together.Previous thread:>>7708471Some resources:/asg/, our stylistic sister-thread series for those focused more on illustration >>>/ic/asgBooks:Understanding Comicshttps://e-hentai.org/g/2042453/83e7da6ed0/Making ComicsComment too long.

How do we feel about the Tumblr art style?
>>7732365This is amazing. How old are you?
>>7732365a thread hit the water at concrete speed for this
Is anyone else jugglemaxxing to improve their art gains? Working your way up to 4 balls is good to improve your concentration, memory, visualization, spatial awareness, etc.Have anyone here done this? How did it affect your art?
>>7732037Huberman in an old episode mentioned that balance exercises like standing on 1 leg can enhance learning. Like you do a difficult balance pose for a while, and then learn what you want to learn. He never mentions this again. Because it's probably bullshit, and he prefers to peddle garbage supplements and charlatans.
is this some kind of metaphor for dealing with multiple things in art, study perspective and your anatomy suffers so you have to switch to anatomy but then your perspective suffers and besides that composition and then color
>>7732037I know you're probably trolling, but there are people who actually believe retarded shit like this.There is nothing in the world that will actually help you get better at drawing besides drawing.
>>7732198pyw
>>7732037you picked the wrong stock image, OP.
This generation of artists was the first to be raised online. What did we learn?
>Social networks are neo-liberal/pay-to-win>Internet metrics are fake>Organizations/companies tend to spread a lefty and all inclusive image while being owned and directed by traditionally-minded people>Non-political people tend to be either ultra-rich, far-left, or center-right individuals more encline to adopt far-right ideas in the long term>US donkeys would be considered moderate right-wing in the vast majority of the world >For rich people, social class is more important than frontiers while it is the the opposite for the middle class>Your presence is the very important to sell your products/services >Filipinos women are a bless and THAT IS ALL WHAT MATTER.
