this is driving me nuts, at which stage do i lose the energy?? I feel like its slowly over each one. am I picking the wrong sketch lines? rendering it incorrectly? ughh
>>7967123I don't think OP is saying:>I get tired polishing my drawing.OP is saying:>My initial sketch conveys some dynamic feeling which is somehow lost in the completed drawing.I initially interpreted it the same way, though.
>>7967118They REALLY get off hard on "tricking" people into looking at and commenting on AI art as if it were real art
>>7967142It's like gay men who pretend to be women on dating apps asking for your dick pic then ghosting you when you refuse and or send the pic.
>>7967034This is definitely AI. How would I know this? Look at the hair!
>>7967138Ah then he can watch Pikat on YouTube she had several videos about what happens when you color your sketches and work but it does not feel same and how to eventually fix it.
>>7967551I don't think any of these people particularly come from money or are the relatives of established artistsNone of them have been discussed here before, I don't know - I think it's better to have more and varied work appreciated rather than styles with a broad commercial appealBrian Kreydatushttps://www.instagram.com/briankreydatusartist/https://briankreydatus.com/home.html

>>7967572Fuck off, Brian. Have you learned to draw hands yet?
>>7967540This one really captivated me. It's so visceral and enigmatic. I feel as if the dark figure is looking at me with the same confusion with which I look at him.>>7967549>>7967557>>7967565I like these from an aesthetic standpoint. They're visually interesting.
>>7967640>Have you learned to draw hands yet?you're a worse deluded idiot than him
>ultra-/beg/s giving out art tutorials with bad advice on Instagram>10k likes>make your shadows darker because it looks like you know how to render if you do it on a default hyperreflective hard surface ballmeanwhile their actual paintings look like THAT
>>7968323>meanwhile their actual paintings look like THATTHAT is better than 97% of current /ic/ anon
>>7968332Really sad if it’s not ai. He learned how to do the one (1) thing ai is really good at, over rendered and off model intellectual property.
>>7968323the forms arent bad on the pokemon one but the rendering is pretty rough. would look better as a drawing or with more detailed rendering. yoshi looks good.
>>7968332It's thanks to guys like him that AI looks like slop, you should be grateful
>>7968323I love it. Big early 00s American attempting Anime vibe. Wouldn't want to learn from the guy. This is a test the universe puts out before you occasionally to see if you've learned how to avoid scammers.
What are your thoughts on Joaquín Sorolla?I think he's a genius
>>7968188Wat does pasta have to do with it
Look like knock off Sargent
>>7968238It's because Joaquin admired Sargent and emulated his work
>>7968151Hue variation is a stylistic choice, especially the kind you see in more contemporary art. If you look closely at his art you'll see that his blobs or color aren't uniform singular. Just very small shifts in warm and cool tones
Not bad, but too impressionistic for me. I wouldn't want to paint like this. Everything looks so wishy washy with no real attention to detail
>hide started at 25That by itself should prove that age doesn't matter and you can make it no matter when you start.
>>7967657uhm, did you know that's wrong, nerd?
>>7967657Obviously you can do both. You can set a goal of drawing every day and mostly maintain that schedule without sperging out and beating yourself up because you missed a day.Telling someone they only have to draw every other day, or even worse every three days, just seems like intentional sabotage to me.
>>7963510There are a shit ton of Jap instructors on Youtube. Its just hide's channel is most convenient to point to. But there are always tutorials and documentaries on shit like animation and manga drawing over there. Like even this one guy who does those Yume Nikki animations just made his own short tutorialhttps://youtu.be/_e5f65iRQrw?si=DR2EqN5f86Yd0m1GThe japs are really open about how the sausage is made, the only filter is the language barrier that has anons on here pushing certain channels that also happen to communicate in English too
>>7963177kek, I laughedhide is cool tho
>>7963410>Sorry, your advice doesnt help me>By the way I ignore points 1, 2 and 4 of it
I've been struggling to make my art fappable for years but nothing works.How do I make people see my art and say "yeah I'm gonna masturbate to this later"?
>>7965246>Is that really Sakimichan?It`s her new art style, she changed it back when AI trained on her art`s a popular trend.
>>7963945Im a man of pure creativity and unrestricted freedom. My art looks like shit one day the other it looks like gods came down with it themselves. But.. who are you ? You only put lines down on your paper to please gooners the filth of the internet you basically turned to whore. Whore who sells his skills to low-lifes. You have restricted yourself for years to draw daily like a sociopath and look where you have ended. Here selling yourself for others. Turn to light since it isn't too late for you and enjoy things as they should be.
>>7964665That face is very fucking rough, oof.
>>7963945Personally, this style is too clean, too simple and there's a lack of action, it's all really boring. This is as sexy as a geometry textbook, best thing you could do is read a bunch of doujin to learn how to make an interesting scene.
Get good at drawing a super specific thing, people stick to that like flies on honey.Mine is pubes, people literally demand the pubes when I forget to add them or they're hidden.
Is it true that being a one trick pony artist, meaning focusing on a very specific subject will yield better results than being versatile? Generally speaking.
Why are you guys still doing this?Cmon, your lives cant be thaaaat boring.
>>7960175It's more that the success comes first, and then the artist becomes a one trick.Most artists bumble around experimenting and trying out different things until they find that one thing that blows up and starts bringing bread to the table.Autists on deviantart see that and build a cargo cult around hyperfocusing on their retarded fetish thinking it's a key to success when in reality it's the market that decides what you should focus on.
>>7960175Not really, you can just focus on the fundies and practice everything and you'll be pretty good. Though you will lose speed. But if your fundies are strong, you can draw anything and everything. Just look at popular artists, half the time they can do quite a bit besides "one focused area". From portraits to landscape. Idk feels like a /beg/ trap to me. Granted you have to practice a lot more but still doable.
>>7960175>Is it true that being a one trick pony artist, meaning focusing on a very specific subject will yield better results than being versatile?In this AI art world? Hell no! We're in the middle of a great extinct event for artists and plenty of specialists like light novel & book cover illustrators, DnD OC artists, graphic designers and "realistic" pet portrait artists lost their careers overnight, they're all especialists and focused on a niche but now they're either flipping burguers, Ubering, or a V-Tuber like Ixy.

Where I posted 60 pages of my autobiographical comichttps://warosu.org/ic/thread/6709911And I received interresting comments like:Your self-absorption is the reason why you have no friends, no art skill and no story to tell.And I'm not saying that as a HAHA, GOTCHU!, this is what your comic is telling me.If instead of caring so much about yourself you cared about the world around you and its possibilities, generating new and creative things, people would pay attention to you and you wouldn't have to be a full-time self-fellating coping artist.Sort out your life goals.or Comment too long.

>>7963656SYKE! I KEPT READING!It was interesting. Has charm to it.I hope we eventually get a chapter where you're getting over your obstacles anon. I think you should go out and make that happen for us. The comic made me wanna slap my own parents for similar childhood trauma, but i've passed that phase in my life, I hope you have too.
>>7963696yeah, I wont give away the conclusion, but rest assured progress is made eventually.it will be more like Evangelion or Welcome to the NHK, some of my favourite worksits why I don't read Kabi Nagata anymore...the self pity was great for one book, but it keeps going. I cant relate to that.
>>7963705NHK is 1 of my personal favorites too, I watched it like 6 times.Glad to hear it though.

I just now found out that using rulers isn't cheatingI've been trying to draw lines freehand for 6 yearsWhat other obvious shit were you blind to?
>>7962629what do you mean, its better to draw without the ruler. literally wasting your time with that shit, and rulers are soulless. why would you ever need a line to be perfectly straight? its art
There is no cheating. Only results.
>>7962631isnt it weird adults stop loving candy as much as they did as kids? I cant stand the stuff
So im wondering if all the straight lines in scenery or the environment are using rulers or how are they made more natural looking. In a school setting desk legs arent perfectly straight, how do they go about illustrating that?
>>7963023based. I picked up Violin, Tai Chi, and ironically ended up trying to apply the mindset to video games.It's shocking how much of "Games are Boring" that we feel is just our imagination dying.
Hi anons i hope you all doing well btw here's a silent comic I've did in 6 days to challenge myself feel free to criticize so i can improve thank you page 1
>>7858722Just hit the gym and sign a contract, bro!Practice hands.
>>7858691Best one. Has a good implication of action between panels. All your other ones are almost like you're trying to showcase everything, even uneeded detail, rather than giving the key details and implying the rest.
>>7961883I know, this is annoying, they should sage like me
This is the most boring troll I've ever seen. Oh no, a dead thread is being bumped over and over?... yawn.I'm sure they'll respond to this whilst acting oblivious in about a weeks time. Very quirky.
>>7858687You've used a lot of screentone. Yet you didn't do any kind of shading/rendering with it. They may as well be flats.
First pic is the logoI'm redesigning my site and want to go in the direction of a Frutiger Aero/Skeuomorphism vibe, where, the site currently looks like this: eccomuse.comWhat do you think of the logo, the sidebar that holds the logo and the slide bar? How can i improve it?What do you think about the Frutiger metro infographic i made? How can i improve it, if possible, a friend said the color takes away from the background, but i dont think thats a bad thing
Yeah, I agree with >>7967884The music note is off centre from the rest of the elements, which makes it really unpleasant and unsatisfying to look at.
>>7967820I disagree with all these autistic symmetry fucks. Just increase the length of the blue stripes to extend to the bottom left until it looks asymmetrical

Better luck next time, retard.Re-read my posts, and actually try to get a handle on what is being written. I am simply saying that being an artist is a job. A job revolves around money. Thus, true artists do the job for money.What has my point about a job title got to do with demoralisation? How does the job title effect anyone's ability to draw or make art?

>>7969781Cool work, but it reads really vague. Maybe try increasing the contrast and use three shades for each color. Focus more on the shapes, and add hard highlights to improve readability.Study Toriyama and Akio Oyabu, your work shares many qualities that theirs has.If you're not already using a secondary view window, I think you would benefit from it.Keep going!
>>7969726>>7969836Thank you, I really appreciate how patient you are with me.
>>7968132I WON!
Alright guys, I opened up GIMP 3.2.4I got my Wacom Intous PTK-640 outPaired with open tablet driverWhen do I how do I git gud drawing? I want to draw cool things.
Why did so many of you only start drawing later in life?If you wanted to be an artist so bad then why didn’t you draw more as a kid? What was stopping you?
>>7966829I started drawing consistently in high school but I stopped mainly because I had college courses and a job eating up most of my free time, and also due to lacking confidence in my drawing ability. I felt like I wasn't able to ever become a "good artist" mainly because I didn't have an existing pathway or support that could help me improve. I picked up drawing four years later and I've been drawing consistently for about two, three years? I'm not as good as I want to be, but I'm seeing improvement and I like where things are going. I pretty much had to self-teach myself how to learn how to draw and the results have been satisfying. Whenever I have the opportunity, I tell the kids I work with about how to improve at drawing.Seeing behind the curtain does take away the mystique, but quite frankly I think making the act of creating art into a mysterious performance does a lot more harm than good.All you have to do is just grind shapes and forms for a month, then draw from life and use references. And by "use" references, I mean applying the exercises and techniques found in DRSB, Cognitive Drawing (or Memory Drawing, whichever one), the Art and Science of Drawing, the Natural Way to Draw, and the Art of Responsive Drawing:>blind (pure) contours>observe ref, hide ref and draw from memory, then copy the ref>trace the ref and focus on how things connect>break down the ref into shapes and forms>draw ref upside down>negative space and positive space drawingsComment too long.

>>7949254Why in-situ?>>7949332Scienticism made every discipline worse. It's a refuge for the talentless and less wise, for those who needed to cope with data and formula, where a structured argument could have been made instead. Modern academia really suffers from it. It's just data slop.In the matter of art: a distraction from actually practicing and getting good.
