I think it's time to bring furry art into art galleries and the fine art world at large. Don't laugh. It would help bring younger buyers and fresh talent in and legitimize an already thriving market. The first person to do this will be ahead of the curve.

What Is your biggest critique of Muratas artstyle?
>>7298359>>7298559The duality of man.
Kinda boring, his artstyle was better in eyeshield, maybe is because of the lack of exaggerated perspective shots, the character designs are too boring, and often look samey

What causes an artist to stagnate or even regress?
>>7299739Is one of these supposed to be worse than the other?
>>7299740yeah the left one is supposed to be better because it has the blurryness and less line art which means the artist is smarter
>>7299739not drawing. It doesn't matter what you draw just draw. use refs if you want to learn something new ofc
how do you as an artist cope (if you even have to) with people that are better than you? i probably have been brainwashed into thinking i was such a good artists since a kid, that when i got into the real world and saw my art was complete shit it just disconfigured me completely, and in turn i just usually hate art and other artists to the point i try to avoid drawing at all because i remember i am not as good as someone younger than me that draws way better, for example.
>>7301683I've got my own opinions on the art jobs ai is going to take, but I'll keep em to myself (let's just say, I don't have a lot of sympathy for the industry "artists")That being said, I think that there's something to be said about embracing drawing like oneself. Personally I'd always git to a certain level of "gud", be able to emulate an artist I wanted to draw like, and it would never make me happy or satisfied. I'd then pivot and endlessly struggle to get better and better but never be satisfied. I became so obsessed with the improvement and others skills and how I needed to get at least as good as *blank* before I was genuinely "professional", and only once I got my hands on AI art and learned all about the tools that I realized the end goal is a trap. I was always obsessed with the final product, and once the better 1.5 models were released (let alone Pony models) would you get the exact end goal you wanted in seconds, especially if you had some art know how... but you lose something. You lose the "you" in the work. Technically you'll get the same end result in seconds as if you painted it, and it's as good or better than the artist you want it to emulate, but you'll find yourself longing for imperfection and come to find that it's not necessarily imperfection, but that hard to attain "soul" factor. Really, it's the people that worked hard to git gud in a standard sense that are now punished the hardest by ai. The abstract or people that refined their own style and unique way to approach the translation of what they see to paper, they will be the ones who will find their own niche, and even then, ai may eventually pick that up too so in reality it's the people that genuinely learned to enjoy the process of creating art in the way they enjoy. If you're obsessed with reaching that end point of gitting gud, drawing like others, or better than others, I'd recommend giving AI a go for a couple months and see if that's really what you want.
>>7301398>>7301683>>7301838So that’s it? Even the little that I could do is rendered moot by machines, and I’ll have to go do a shitty wagie job no matter what for the rest of my life?I’m not that noble guys, not enough to just cope and say it’s the journey that matters when my whole existence is shit and people on here talent mog and life mog me to oblivion. I may have to rope prematurely as I can no longer cope with it all but there’s and equally great chance I’ll keep suffering in silence. I hope I can work up the guts to though instead of just continuing to rot.
>>7301932I mean, if all you care about is the attention, end product, and career, just do AI. There's a barrier of entry and most companies are looking for people with know how. Art is now going back to a raw and basic form. You'll either create to create and enjoy the process, or you'll suffer to be as good as AI which will still outdo you in a professional sense. Figure out what you want out of art and why you're drawing and adjust your trajectory accordingly.
>>7301938How about a third option, the sunk cost fallacy? I can never bring myself to quit nice and for all, at everything, not just art, when I’d realistically be happier if I did.Maybe my stuff will take off as an independent artist, as I could never work for a corporation, and bring me some happiness but I don’t have any hope.
>>7301941That's why I would really just focus on learning to enjoy the process and "find yourself" in your art. Sounds like I'm high off my own farts, but that's what it boiled down to for me. AI art has really changed the game and in a lot of ways, the goals to traditional art.Heck, like I said, use it for a bit and see if maybe that's more up your alley. For me it wasn't, but for some it is.
What resolution should I make my character commissions in? I usually hear to just go high res, but when I upload on twitter or something like that it doesnt aways look great. Is there an ideal resolution?
>>7301911No, that's not a magic fix all but it does improve the image. When you reduce an image, you increase the pixel density, improving sharpness and clarity.
>>7301859There is no set standard, specially if you dont plan on printing. And if you do, 300 dpi is good enough. That being said I work around 3800x3000 (about the size of a letter format paper) at most so I don’t feel compelled to zoom in as much.
>>7301859I always go for 3-4K, that's around 3000 or 4000 pixels in width and/or height with a brush of 6-8 pixels for lineart, it looks great. Maybe your lines are too thin and get crunched in lower resolutions. But also depends what purpose your client needs it for, if they need a print/shirt etc., anything below 8K is gonna print blurry.Twitter and Bluesky will compress the shit out of your art though, don't use them to actually deliver art to your client that way, but just advertise.I found uploading PNG instead of JPG helps as it doesn't get compressed too much for some reason.
>>7282621go to your containment thread faggot
>>7301872DPI and PPI these days are memes. You only need pixels, if you follow standard templates and min pixel resolutions for e.g. comic pages or shirts, you'll be fine.
I can't make friends online.I want to meet other digital artists online but it's extremely difficult.You meet some people and it sort of clicks and you hang out in the vc regularly as a group, but sooner or later someone's feelings get hurt or something or some other nothingburger-event divides people, or mildly annoys people and then the social-gathering-online-draw-together-well slowly poisons into a toxic social environment.People start to incite against one another and it's really lame.I can't make friends like this.I'm looking for authentic support, discourse and engagement. I can't deal with this superficial crap. There's no connection, I can't make a connection, people don't really want to connect with eachother it seems.And then there's a part of it where it's all about some elusive internet-social-status. I understand that people want to get ahead in visual art, but I'm yearning for mutual supportive engagement.I tried looking for local ateliers and drawing groups, I tried hiring mentors, but to no avail.It just doesn't 'click' I guess.I just want a drawbuddy that's in the same """niche""" in terms of digital art I guess, so I can exchange feedback, advice and strategies to hone my skills.Comment too long.

>>7292877>This chit-chat shit is fine when you are a woman, or a nonwhite male, or gay/tranny.Now you're just blaming everyone else for your own shortcomings
>>7293420Ah, sounds like a dream... the legendary 10-man servers. So hard to find, lol >>7292111Well anon, you're in a bad spot. You're pretty obsessive. Consider researching anxiety, ADHD, Asperger's, and classical interpretations of narcissistic personality disorders (i.e. not "inflated ego" but "zero ego, huge super-ego"). You also need to develop your ability to see others' feelings instead of their words. When you try to initiate communication based on really carefully-tuned and specific words, nobody else can really understand what you mean because no one else has the same micro-meaning for words as you do. It is impossible to communicate down to razor-sharp nuance with anyone but yourself because of this.Case in point in >>7291442 >Honestly, this is very tiring to type all that crap out? Do you have useful advice for my situation?Anon just wrote out a bunch of thoughtful, very carefully padded details about his take on your situation and you effectively told him what he wrote is shit and you don't care (remember we can't see whatever your nuance was, it looks wholly negative to me). That's exactly what you accuse others of doing when you try to write out an honest response to their complaints.>Sorry to be a bit blunt, I really appreciate that you're willing to share your thoughtsNo one reading this would think you're sorry or that you appreciate anything. Are you regretful for what you said? Then go delete it. With this wording, the character you present is just trying to escape consequences for acting immature. I'd recommend doing some practice to assign emotions or even positive/negative feelings to yours' and others' words. Ask ChatGPT for a guess about the interpreted tone of your messages and why (yes, I know it's fake and not sentient, but it's good at guessing what a lot of people will think). There's an old piece of advice that goes "people will never remember what you said, but how you made them feel."

>>7297844me, i draw middle aged men
Am I doing something wrong? doing lineart for a piece with some perspective and a couple characters takes me like a whole day- decide the composition- get the gesture right- the facial expressions- the folds of the clothes, the hair- filling in all the details- etcby the time i get to the part i like the most (coloring/rendering) it takes me a shitload of time
>>7301068>>7301097I feel very much the same whenever I make art. I almost exclusively work with pens, and sometimes working on a single 5.5x8.5 in. page can take fucking forever. oftentimes this leads to me just quitting half way through because I get bored/don't have any motivation to continue. in my old sketchbook I only had like 10 pages of actually completed pieces, with the rest being filled in by unfinished ideas. the pain is real, but I also don't really have any solutions for you, I can only really relate. picrel is one i made recently and it took like 25 hours even tho the page is so small, and i decided not to give up on it halfway thru
>>7301117i think i have one of those around, i'll give it another try, thank you!>>7301118>Try just doing a thumbnail, sketching loosely, and then painting over it.that sounds kind of like what this guy does:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACGOHaYvqcEII was just wondering if his process would work for me.

If I put a thin pillow between the lumbar area and the chair it takes a lot longer before the pain comes>>7301125Well in your case at least you have an excuse, that's some intricate ink stuff
>>7301097Same here ToT
>>7301097>you get halfway through a piece after a couple of days and you're already sick of it and want to move onthen move on and come back to whatever piece you left unfinished later?you're acting like your drawing is gonna run away if you don't finish it NOW
>>7301191>dumb gamer chairYea those are horrible for you. They're super cheaply made, not really adjustable and just nasty. A regular adjustable office chair, an adjustable stool like musicians and old school architects use, or several other tried and true chair types are ideal.
Im been seeing a trend of artists with good art that can stand on its own resort to this path eventually what would make them to this? are they tarnishing their legacy doing commer shit
