It's good software packaged in a UI designed by the average open source/linux fanboy, aka someone who hasn't talked to a real people with real requirements in the past 10 years and thinks their autistic way of doing things is what makes the most sense
I just open it to use certain paint brushes that work miles better than what they do in CSP

Why have art schools declined so much? Nowadays art schools are either terrible at teaching art, require a background in art already, or focus on fundamentals too much rather than preparing a student/apprentice for a specific market. Just recently in the 19th century american mormons were sending off inexperienced missionaries to europe to learn under french and danish masters and they came back with phenomenal painting skills. You hear so much nowadays 'Art school doesnt work," "Debt trap" and other criticisms but it clearly wasnt like this. Now if you want to be an artist, most art careers have people who are self taught and for the poor undisciplined unguided person who wants to be a painter, character designer, animator - he largely has to figure it out on his own and find a mediocre replacement like an atelier workshop or an online course. What happened?

I think we live in times with the most highly skilled artists in existence.
But also with the most art failures.

So we have more people complaining, making blunders, selling snake oils, failing to get jobs, etc.
And these people who are not cut for drawing are hogging all the good teachers, meaning (You), who are probably part of such crowd, cannot have access to him either.

He was quickly forgotten after his death except for his portraits. Expressionists 'reclaimed' him and saw him as a precursor to their own styles but they didnt get inspired by him initially. Caravaggio was way more influential in his own days.

>furry dating sim
the cancerous nature of that aside, just make explicit priorities. if your game is more important than the challenges you've signed up for, but (at least) temporally your animation is more important than your game, then focus on your game. if that means you have to miss the deadline for this or that challenge, so be it. if you like it so much you can just catalogue them somewhere and do them later. sure you won't get the badge, but again it's all about priorities. just a part of life, crodie.

Isn't this exactly the "wrong" way to draw? Why isn't he drawing boxes? What's going on?
These are just 1 minute practice sketches but if you check he's finished pieces you'll see he's clearly very skilled.

Because outside of Google Doodle "art", there are only 2 paths to become a "professional" artist in 2024, soulless Merch_wip shitters (fossils of the late 00s) or coombait anime tiktokers.

And the anime ones make it big on social media, whereas conceptspergs need to look professional to be hired by the game startups that will skimp their talent away.

I have a wacom tablet to draw digital one of those intuos small and I think it is enough to draw in CSP I was thinking to get the Samsung S9+ but as an artist this is really an expensive gadget.

It is really worth the price to draw digital, I mean I will notice a difference drawing or should I save the money and keep drawing in my mini tab which I think handles the work perfectly.
>>
get a large wacom intuos tablet, its 500$ , i bought mine like 10 years ago and its still good. You get extra pen nibs too
>>
>>7373473

Might be a good option and cheaper but drawing in a tablet directly in the screen sometimes and using as a 3rd monitor for my pc is convincing me.
>>
>>7373464
We have a tablet thread.

You can get something like a wacom one if you sit at home and just want a screen, or a magic drawing pad if you just want the portability.

There are also other brands like huion that sell solid 16" displays. I think the S9 is best if you have the ultra so you get 15" of space, I dont know that its worth it for the price to get the small ones compared to other tablets.

cant draw anything, you have a million ideas of what to draw but cant because you can barely draw a stick figure
people who started drawing as kids dont know how good they have it, its basically like being born the son of a billionaire and sole successor of his fortune
there is truly no harder part of drawing than trying to start as an adult /beg/

It's the only skill that is mystified to such an extraordinary degree. And because of this midwits don't even try to properly learn it like they would any other skill. It's also the only skill autismos cling to, even if they hate it and don't really want to learn to draw and would be better off doing anything else.
>>
>>7372577
It is and it isn't. You know what other skills are hard, even harder? Being a surgeon. Brain surgeon. A fucking dentist. A psychiatrist/Psychologist. Even being a carpenter and crafting furnature is really hard to master. Same with almost every craft. The difference is, drawing has the lowest barrier of entry, all you need is a pencil, a sheet of paper and the time. But the most important thing you need if you want to learn a new skill? Neuroplasticity. Just kidding, it's to believe in your self, to not hate yourself when you fail, and to critique yourself constructively. Now go, pray to Jesus and draw.

Okage Shadow King.

But what I assume is that these artists got their influence from classic painters like Gustav Klimt (guy who made the Kiss). You can also study 2000's japanese pop art style too (SEGA arcade games, Pop'n music, Parappa the Rappa etc.)

I would try studying the classics, then look at the recent examples so you can get a gist on how they made stylistic choices into a modern cartoon.
