is there much benefit to learning the manga "style" if you already study realism? like, does drawing manga help with mastering fundies?

Study both, the books have the semi/realistic version and then goes into anime.

That's what I've been doing. But just get into just drawing whatever you want first and following the materials.

Worry about what happens next later.

Art tutorials are such a depressing grift these days

i know to draw separate body parts like hands and eyes but i have a serious problem when it comes to mashing the up together in a body.
i can't find a way to sketch properly without me erasing everything and starting from scratch again.
i can draw, but idk how to put everything together

It's probably because of how they stretch and twist when taking a pose. Have you tried to do more gesture?
>i can't find a way to sketch properly without me erasing everything and starting from scratch again.
Don't erase, you're sketching, light pressures and a lot of restating, you're trying to define the forms and structure. It is supposed to be messy.

I want to get into animation and don't know what to choose between 2D animation or 3D animation. I have a lot of experience in 2D drawings and already know the fundamentals of art, but 3D animation looks more creative.

i use 3D because i cannot draw worth shit. chatGPT is the only reason i can do anything with blender. try buying a premade model from an existing artist and then try posing the character. BlenderGuru's donut tutorial is the place to start. watch his brick wall tutorial too.

2D animation is for massochists. would you rather struggle through learning a GUI or draw 25 frames per second of animation yourself?
>>
>>7753197
>3D animation looks more creative
that's a really odd thing to say, if anything i'd say it's the opposite. but do whatever interests you most, there are likely more jobs for 3d

How does ChatGPT help with blender?

>>7755619

instantaneous hyper-specific technical advice, rather than crawling through faggot youtube videos that spends the first 5 minutes of the video explaining what blender is, its history, and why it's good, and then segwaying into the raycon or factor sponsorship.

if you must watch youtube videos, watch videos made by indians. they are extremely efficient with your time.
>>
>>7754134
Most of the difficulty comes from the modeling itself. Animating isn't super complex. Advanced material work often ends up in technical artist territory.

I tried drawing a female in a revealing pose, I think the poon is proportionally too small but alright otherwise, but when I showed it to some girls they where like "lol, this looks nothing like it".
I like me a good pair of meat curtains, cause I am into adult women, but what went wrong?

the key to drawing that region is the same as drawing the nose or lips of the mouth, learn where to apply shadows and lighting.
lines are nothing more than the darkest part of the shadow, its not what gives shape/volume

if you can get that down, you'll be able to draw anything

i.e. dont think in lines, think in lighting, and give shape through that.

are there any good books on genitals, it seems like most anatomy resources omit them. I know you have to study from reference too but I would like to be able to approach it in a similar learning manner as with the other parts of a figure

Some people just have all the talent, it's not fair.
And if we're mentioning former vocaloid producers, I think this anon is on the money >>7755119
Take the example of Kanzaki Hiro, better known as the guy who originally designed and drew for Oreimo and Eromang Sensei, had a pretty successful run as a vocaloid producer (Hiroyuki Oda and nagasoumenp) in the 2000s apparently. More recently he designed Hinemori Luna's avatar.

Ah yes, decided to ambush foes mid shit, like my narrative senpai.

Memes aside, is there any proof that some people are naturally better at art than others?
By "talent" I mean an experience boost, like you level up faster, not a magical gift from God.
I don't mean theories, I mean facts, like someone that did art for 10 thousand hours and still sucked at it.
I've been drawing since 2019 and I'm still a /BEG/ so I'm inclined to believe talent is real but maybe I'm just a lazy bum.

It's works by Windows on a VM so there is 100% compatibility, unlike Wine, but it also introduces lag. I don't know if it's possible to reduce or eliminate that lag quite yet. My knowledge is limited to hearsay, currently.

Any tutorials, design sheets or "tracing folder" to accurate replicate thess 6 particular art styles I want to learn:
>Akira Toriyama's
>Tetsuo Hara's
>Leiji Matsumoto's
>Paru Itagaki's
>That art style from OG Gundam
>That art style from 1970s/1980s Time Bokan shows (I don't know who work on character designs/entire art style of all Time Bokan shows)
Hope that you help me guys

your best bet is watching their drawing process and try your best to analyze how they do it

for example, early stuff was mostly on paper and then scanned, so the illustrations had this traditional look to them

they also had wonky anatomy and proportions (depending on the artist), they're mostly using cell shading with heavy lineart usage

you could also analyze how the illustrations were affected when they were scanned, like having some artifacts or the colors getting all super saturated

try to copy their color palette or something, idk

just examples of how you could approach it, and then you take all the things you learned and apply to your own stuff, you should also have lots of reference images to look at

why is it so easy to tell when an artist is into feet? What is it about the way they're drawn that makes it so obvious?
>>
>Weirdly detailed for style
>Foot focus in someway even if its a completely sfw drawing
>Poses of feet more interesting than an artist without a foot fetish
>Anatomy of feet better when compared to the rest of the body

To artists without a foot fetish the feet are an after thought compared to everything else.

Show me how would you render glass, multiple glasses and deal with the refractions, reflection, translucencys
