DC hired an artist that draws loli and shota porn for a Supergirl oneshot. I don't want to hear you fags crying that drawing porn blacklists you from the industry ever again.
>>7983543 He looks like a normal guy. Especially if he's in his late 30s or more with the grey.
>>7983543looks like my workplace's tech repairman
>>7975476It's mostly social engineering kids on discord or similar to send pics/stream themselves with screen recordings. Thousands of pics and hundreds of recorded calls
>>7975476You sound like you don't believe in satanic communist jews running child sex trafficking rings either. Why don't you come up with an estimate of how much incriminating footage Epstein's full house video surveillance system has captured.
This discussion inspired me to buy the anthology to support the artists. Thanks /ic/!
Dont you just love it when your favorite artists actually gets a fuck of a lot worse with time on faces?Yes this is RavenRavenRaven, why does he draw ugly faces now?
>>7984679Why do futafags feel the need to shoehorn their fetish into absolutely everything? Almost as bad as furries
>>7984551>Dont you just love it when your favorite artists actually gets a fuck of a lot worse with time on faces?I don't follow porn addicted pedophiles so I haven't yet experienced any of these NSFW regressions you losers keep crying about.
>>7984906>im a gay faggot guys unlike you straggots hehfaggot
>>7984673you people are obsessed with creating insane labels for basically anything you just kinda dislike huh?
>>7984628he doesn't draw, he needs to feel better some way or another
>2 years beg>dont draw much for the past 6 months either lazy or tired from uni>summer break arrives>dont know how to get backsoooooo how do i get back into the right spirit? Before i became a lazy retard i did a lot of gestures but that didnt get me anywhere because i didnt know how to study human body properly. Any good resources for that?It's like they were always too flat or not very fluid...
>>7983897Youre massively overthinking and acting retarded. Go to youtube and watch whatever you want. Pause and draw. Stack pages of drawings. You dont need to study shit. Draw draw draw draw you lazy nigger. Quantity
>>7983897>dont draw much for the past 6 monthsWhy are you learning to draw?Just prompt away like an AI shitter.
>>7983944Are they in the video course thread?
>>7985901I believe so yes. Someone somewhere knows how to get them
>>7985904Cool, thanks.
>spent 3 hrs polishing a turd>made virtually no progressIM GOING TO FUCKING KILL MYSEFL12!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>7979119Its okay, I didnt want to see your turd anyways.
>>7985056People see you suck and dont want to interact with you anymore.This is why you never post your stuff outside of the generals.
>>7985432Okay?I wasnt going to post it lol
>>7985450Good, I would probably drop down to a mid /beg/ after looking at it.
>>7985445>People see you suck and dont want to interact with you anymore.90% of the time people tell me to post my work is usually during an argument of some sort, if my work was really that shitty I highly doubt they'd overlook the opportunity to shit on it.

>>7985089Been a lurker of these threads for a while. Haven't worked on animation in more than half a decade, but you fellas have inspired me to try it out again. So far, so good, I think.
>>7985665Holy hell! I forgot the image is MASSIVE!! I'll be sure to shrink it once I progress more.
>>7985589i miss when there wasn't a bratty pedophile commandeering every one of these threads. pre-2020 animation threads were peak.

How do you add this yellowish glow on the lighting of a scene? I thought just using a gradient would be enough but it looked like shit when I tried it.
>>7985760Bloom filter
>>7985762And if you wanna get real snazzy with it, bokeh filter
>>7985772Bokeh into Bloom filter = Ethereal kino
>>7985760they use adobe after effects, anonanime is made in a few steps>step 1 - draw it on paper with pencils>step 2 - scan it and draw vector lines in retas or unaliased lines in clip studio>step 3 - fill flat colors with the bucket in previous 2 programs>step 4 - add all the post processing in after effectsthat's it, profityou can just look it up on youtube, there's a ton of footage from production of almost every major anime company
I'm scared of drawing for 10 years and just get worse like in pic related. What are the steps I must do to avoid this fate?
>>7982145>actually bothered to draw nails>better fabric folds>better soft shading on the fabric with better edge lighting>proper backlighting/AO (the red ambient occlusion of the scarf on her right arm)>crumpled papersAlso should ask him how long it took him to finish it. My old as fuck drawing that I tried to redraw took me 6-8 hours and looked like dogshit, but my new drawing only take like 1.5 hours tops. A lot of people really forget that the only thing you can see are the final result so the comparison is just whether it gives the same kino feel or not (obviously it would not. You can be the frieren looking up creator and improve massively but you'll never be able to recapture that kinosovl)
>>7982145There was a similar "stagnation" thread a few months back where crabs were lambasting some dude for stagnating for two years but it was quite obvious he made improvements. My theory is that people who themselves can't improve won't be able to see the improvements in the art of others unless its extremely obvious
>>7974477Good post. Here are a few more:>2016 crying girl has a chubbier face which fits the situation better>2016 crying girl raises her shoulders a little, body language when you feel tense and want to disappear >2016 crying girl has bigger tears>2026 girl doesn't just look forward, it's more like she's looking into the camera My theory is that getting older made the artist forget what teen angst feels like.
>>7974404soul/soulless
>>7974422I think he got better. I'm sure first pic is a one off and it took him days to finish, and never make one exactly like it, while the second he can knock out in hours, and can consistently repeat. Like its obvious he spent 10x as much time on the first.The second one is just way more 'readable' with the secondary details blending into the background and much more contrast between the characters and scenery.
How do you deal with envy? It feels like everyone improves faster than me, everyone's art is more soulful. I've definitely gotten better but it's such a struggle for me, it feels like everyone else understands what I struggle with faster. I'm still having fun but sometimes this ENVY washes over me, and all I can do is sit there.
>>7985745>this is cope and poor pretty girls have it especially bad because they end up rapedyou watch too many movies
>>7985746no, i just grew up in a very poor area and saw every pretty girl that wasn't smart enough to go away to uni get stuck there via babies or worse. you however are likely reading /r9k/ too much
>>7985753where the fuck did I say that every pretty girl automatically becomes rich? of course if you're retarded you're going to get fucked,those who are smart can make the jump. all girls are whores so they can just become escorts and make money that a man would never even dream of. I've seen it, they do it. They won't tell you of course. Once they're dressed in Prada from head to toe they're not filthy whores anymore
>>7985763it's 2026 and some of the richest men in the world are homosexual. you can easily become an escort and do what a desperate woman now. shave yourself and go show hole on OF. you obviously see that as a desirable or enviable path to take better yet shoot up some hrt and troon, you'll make $$$ everybody luvs dickgirls
>>7985768>some of the richest men in the world are homosexualactually pedos but why are you jumping to the 0.001% all of a suddenyou don't have to get into epstein land to see the social gap between the rich and the poor and the average rich guy 30-50 is a massive whoregoer. I thought you grew up in poverty instead of learning shit from movies?>you can easily become an escortno I can't because I'm not a woman? a woman is naturally wired to sell her cunt, why do you think it's full of whores while fags just bugger each other for free at the gay bar?I think you're seething and full of shit anon but I'm just dropping the truth IDGAF
So, I've been looking everywhere in countless book sites for a higher quality of that specific version of that bridgman book. Because I really wanted to find the fifth edition of bridgman complete guide to drawing from life. As it is the most recommended version. The problem is that I could only find that one version with lower quality than the old one. I really need it for the marshall vandruff bridgman bootcamp. As I don't have any way to access it. Because I am a third world country subhuman that is poor as hell.
>>7985660Ok, here's a study. It's very unfinished. I haven't inked in everything and cleaned the little details.
>>7985660Here's another one, I drew most of these studies usually very late at night. So I don't usually make a lot of vorrect decisions here.
>>7985660I accidentally didn't include the image.So I added some unnecessary things accidentally to it but I guess it doesn't matter as long as I dont alter the drawing.
>>7985663>>7985670ok here's the pdfGeorge Bridgman - Bridgman's Complete Guide to Drawing From Life (5th Edition)https://gofile.io/d/q7sfa3
>>7985671Thanks anon
>Has drawn professionally for decades>Never advanced beyond high /int/ levelHow is that even possible?
>>7982686Why does this look so uncanny? He seems to have very good knowledge of anatomy, but the way things are put together is very unsettling.
>>7983330I think there’s something wrong with the torso/neck area in terms of perspective. Legs look fine
>>7976453im getting big wobble vibes from this guy
Todd McFarlane isn't much better. I have no clue what Gen X saw in these people.
>>7977155>He came from a poor familyliterally every famous person says this and then he randomly met Abe Kikenberg at the local bar
Are there any modern anime art styles capable of hitting the right spot between looking properly cartoonish/exaggerated but still very cute and appealing like Slayers or Rumiko Takahashi series do? It's what I'm aiming for art-wise and I need similar more modern artists to study outside of those classic examples
>>7982630>eyes melting off their face>sharp chins and cheeks protruding like tumorsI can see why this style died out, especially in the waifu era where beauty is valued more than expressiveness.
>>7978624I'd look at movies, they tend to invest more in aesthetics. For example, City Hunter: Private Eyes does a great job of modernizing the classic Hojo style.As for series, the remake of Yaiba: Samurai Legend looks awesome too.Don't sleep on the French. Many of the Japanese artists behind these great looking modernizations were influenced by the Beaux-Arts tradition.
>>7982658I mean there are worse shows to spam
>>7978662literally proving his point lol
>>7978624The illustrator for Slayers and Lost Universe is Rui Araizumi, and I've always thought he has a great artstyle too.>>7982630>>7982691I miss it. New shit is too stiff and lifeless, even the shows and manga that attempt to resemble older anime doesn't really do the expressive stuff that much.
Because keeping your digital art is /ic related.So based on the last thread>>7946553I think I need to make some myth busting.Because /ic/ knows shit about technology>>7960066>>7949475>More parts=More points of failure.>I don't know how you don't understand this part.>Your caveat "Leave it at safe ground level" is offset by my caveat "plug the SSD every couple months to recharge">Both caveats accounted for, SSD will live longer.>>7949158Comment too long.

>>7980260for the love of god never use git as versioning of art, binary blobs and git are not a good fit, use incremental saves in your drawing software as intended.
>>7975298I've been using the same external HDD to store everything the last eight years.As a paranoid git, you should always have redundancies:>Four 64gb SD Cards.>Three HDDs(128gb).>Two SSDs(256gb).>One NVME(1TB).That's my set up. It's obtuse but it works. I back up the art at least once a month
>>7984745What typical Linux fanboy cope and word games.I am the guy who mentioned /boot the main problem is that the OS itself is written by retards who did not think what will happen after 40 kernel updates.>It worksOk. However the OS will nag you that there is no space on /boot and it will nag you to update the OS and this will result in a error window. All normies will complain about it.>You only have problems if you login as root>Fix the problemYou are a clown.To fix the problem you need to login as root and this can brick the OS.You are a clown the devs are retards.>Herp derp simply do not update.Comment too long.

>>7985023>use git as versioning of art, binary blobs Literally no one suggested this.>In meme softwareWhat if your meme file gets corrupted?The point is to prevent data corruption and I think git can deal with this what is the other alternative? Run ZFS? Buy a ZFS storinator?
>>7985562>OS will nag you that there is no space on /boot and it will nag you to updateAh yes, an upwards arrow icon in the tray is somehow worse than automatically installed updates that then force you to reboot in the middle of work. Just stop pretending you've used Linux for more than three minutes.Not sure what you meant by that highly hypocritical meltdown about root too. I did not claim anything specific about escalating privileges, just that your assertion that you need to be a highly trained professional to use the OS is retarded. GUI application managers existed for 20 years. If you need third party slop, there's Flatpak now too. And yes, I installed Skype using a .deb.By the way, removing previous kernels automatically is the riskier approach in case there's a latent issue and you need to roll back. And again, a full /boot does not make the computer stop functioning. You can still boot it up and use it, maybe even get help online and figure it out. Oh, but God forbid you know how the tool you're using works, I guess, makes it harder to upsell to you.
Apologies if this gets asked a lot.I've always liked art, but I never seriously tried learning it. I doodled a lot as a kid, stopped in my early teens, and now I'm 25 and want to give it a proper shot. I'd like to eventually make work that's on the level of the artists who inspired me.One thing that's always held me back is that I've never had much confidence in my own ability. I also don't really consider myself a particularly intelligent person, so I've always wondered whether that's something that could hold me back when it comes to learning art, or if it's mostly a matter of consistent practice.Right now I struggle with pretty much every fundamental: shapes, perspective, anatomy, etc. I also feel like I can't draw anything convincingly unless I'm directly copying a reference. If I try to draw from memory or come up with a pose on my own, it usually looks stiff or just wrong.Is that just a normal part of being a beginner, or does it suggest I'm lacking creativity or visual imagination? I'd appreciate any advice from people who started later or went through the same thing.
>>7982840true. im ~160 and my art is trash.
>>7982804Your post is well-written, and if you wrote it on your own you are not an idiot (in the clinical sense of the term).If you can also read well, you are at an advantage compared to the many art students who shun books with text, because a lot of older art instruction books (these are the best ones) are text-heavy and filled with great advice and observations.You struggle with drawing from imagination? So do many artists coming out of ateliers and academies who can draw beautifully from models and reference (see: Proko).Seeing accurately is a skill that can be developed with practice.Inventing figures is a different skill, one that entails several branches of knowledge: anatomy (the relevant parts), motion, balance, form, etc.I think you can become competent, at least. Whether or not you WILL is another matter, and that's for you to decide.
>>7984101What test did you take and how old were you
Intelligence is expressed through planning. And consideration. Realize that making worthwhile art requires stages and steps towards the final project. Don't know what to draw? Try my Creativity Grind:https://youtu.be/1OSWR7xiQLk?is=r9kGCaVqHKC0GzKVRepeat until you get something you are interested in drawing again. Then draw it again, not to make a masterpiece, but to get a feeling for your subject. Here you are doing designing, and such stuff should be treated like the scrap paper you do the calculations on before presenting the mathematical formulas in neat lines. People will criticize these works, not understanding that what they are seeing is part of the process and not the results of the process.

>>7979908I remember seeing this comic I can't remember who's the OP is (did reverse search and got nothing)
>>7983100It's the comic thread earlier this year I think.
>>7983122Who's the artist behind it Do you have an idea?
>>7983142Why asking? He's s nobody (his art is shit and below /beg/)
>>7983142>>7983100this should help
How do you guys manage your mental when it comes to drawing and doing other things like video games, movies, tv, etc? Any time I try to relax and do something else, my mind keeps telling me that I'm wasting time I could be using to improve and that there's no point in playing a video game, and I just end up feeling very anxious. Anyone have advice on managing this? I've seen really big artists say they make time to do other things but I have no idea how you're supposed to focus on anything else when your brain keeps holding your skill level as a hostage.
>>7982890i'm nearly 3 years in and i still dont feel like its more fun, how much longer do i need
>>7982860like the other anon said, if I'm going to waste some time away not drawing I might aswell just lift or do some cardioIt's definitely reduced my backpain from lengthy drawing sessions and a lot of my arm/elbow painsStretching has also got me feeling pretty good and limber
>>7982115this is a technique that works uniquely for me because im an idiot trannyfaggot but basically i found this amazing artist who does cool art of a trans OC of theirs, and every time i see it i get hit with the double whammy of >god i wish i could draw thatand>god i wish i could BE thatand the anger that im wasting my time playing video games or whatever the fuck else instead of making progress and improving in either of those goals is enough to make me quit most games and other pointless bullshit and focus on art and self-improvementhaven't touched a game since i saw the art for the first time, will probably relax more once im better at drawing and can consistently finish the shit i start but until then i want to stop wasting time and just get better
>>7982143Think I needed to hear this thank u anon
>>7982115not what you asked but, I used to beat myself up a lot, like anyone who sucks badly with art. one day i realized I was being unjust with myself, attacking myself for doing things that were actually quite reasonable mistakes. im a catholic, I refuse to be unjust. so if I ever self depricate, it has to be for a just reason, or I won't allow it. this effectively resulted in me never self-depricating ever again. when I mess up, i tend to either forgive it, or see it as the fault of my process.
