I found out that an artist I followed was the one behind the victorian big boob girl slop tsunami years ago and that he quickly implemented ai into his workflow.Just look at this before and after and tell me that the after doesnt resemble AI a lot and with his history of using it and posting it it isnt like he is unaware of it.https://x.com/setawar/status/1768738684495601854I am demoralized. The artists I follow and wanted to learn from are slopers and I am trying to learn from a workflow that involves AI...

>>7756933>nyooooo i like this artist and art but he used AI so... erm... now i don't like him anymore??? because mmm he's an enemy now>we the artistic communitylol faggots
>99% of the artists produce generic anime slop>AI copies them>oh no his art looks like generic anime slop it must be AI
Death to talented rats!
>>7756955>>7756947How desperate for a recognition you'll never get. Gather all the follows and likes you want, people here will never consider you a peer. >inb4 angry street shitting noisesGetting that recognition is the whole reason you're still itt.

He was the one generating and posting AI victorian era painting style big titty bitches.https://x.com/setawar/status/1575076878792019968>Omg his work just casually looks like AI so it must be AIHe quite literally fucking ADMITS IT NIGGER.https://x.com/setawar/status/1667522253863669760https://x.com/setawar/status/1742054531880628482He even fucking praises ithttps://x.com/setawar/status/1687694403266293760>>7756934Refer to the tweets posted above.My problem is that I like the big titty bitches. I see them, I want to ref them for learning and I want to draw fat milkers like that with that weight and that obscene size but the moment I realize the "original artist" is using AI as great part of their workflow I ask myself "How much am I copying the artist and how much am I copying the AI?Is it just retarded moral grandstanding? Maybe. I see it a lot at my worplace as I am a programmer/sysadmin/manager for even dumber codemonkeys and I see how AI is fucking the world over.Students dont even think anymore because chatgpt does everything for them.My coworkers have copilot writing most of their code and then they wonder why the fuck it has undefined behaviour they didnt expect to be there. They are pushing code to production that they dont know how it works or why!I am trying to learn and inevitably comparing my art to sloppers who are being enabled by AI! How did he get that composition and think of it? AI.How did he choose those colours and camw up with that soft shading method? AIHow is he so fucking fast? AI.I know that nothing short of a worldwide blackout or firebombing every single data center will stop it but even then I hate it.I am surrounded by people who see no qualms on growing dependent on mega corporations who will melt them down for fuel the moment they can!
>>7756973ur art is so clean very nice>>7756970he’s got lego hair, looks like one big shape rather than actual hairaltho i think thats just cause thats still a wip,
>>7756978Do you plan to draw eventually?
>>7756978>He quite literally fucking ADMITS ITAnd? He's still earning thousands of dollars while you're bitching in an anonymous website living in your moms basement
>>7756973is this the clean-up of many mess layers below it or do you draw like that from the get go?
any time I think my art sucks I just have to draw for like a couple more minutes and then it all comes back to me
>>7756978
>>7756978I played around with AI the first time in what must have been 1.5 years...it's gotten so good. We already lost.I still draw and have i fact started drawing when AI was taking off.But it's a hollowed out pursuit now. The purpose is nothing more than therapy. It's devoid of meaning and ambition now. It's just for myself. I feel like I must adapt, but in a way I'd rather give up on art than to be sweatshop worker cleaning up some AI product.
>>7756995Give up on art my man, just produce dopamine with masturbation.
>>7756977Another one
>>7756989I draw the simple shapes with a thicker/softer brush first then draw over it on the same layer and erase or sculpt the marks i dont need

>PBS will return oct 1>Already halfways to NovemberLIAR. FUCKING LIAR. YOU KILLED HIM.
So the anon obsessed with him is most likely himself, correct?
>>7757015I think picking art as a craft to make money is sort of stupid. But now that I can for sure not make any money off it given that some random 70IQ Indian can out-draw me with a button click I wonder whether I really never had a monetary ambition in this. If I had it's probably better to quit, because that's fucking stupid. Plenty of skills pay better faster. Possibly all of them. Drawing was shit tier for money making even before AI. Who'd pay for images? Just a few studios who look for the cheapest bidder.>>7757000maybe it really comes down to this.In the end what's all this for? Just to numb the toil of the work day.I should try Netflix.
>>7757028You're not wrong. At the same time, was that why you chose art? For me, it felt like money comes second in the grand scheme of things; I'm just addicted to the freedom of being able to create whatever I want, with the quality depending on how hard I try and study. It's the one trade that pays off for me, as I'm unable to do anything else.When you're retarded and disabled and the gov't is pulling the NEETbux, what else is there? Could wank sure, but all you're left with is a mess. Versus art - someone out there has seen your art and it meant something to them, even if they don't say anything.Or you can make shock art and really affect those that see it.
>>7757027Must be whoever keeps posting his dogshit ass moeblob drawings >>7756921
I draw because I like drawing, I'm not very good at it but I'm slowly getting better and that feels good :)
>>7757041See, this guy gets it.
>>7757041based mindsetremember this feeling, it will serve you well in the long run
How do you anons know when to call something done? I feel like if I spent the hours necessary to polish this further, it wouldn't actually improve the end result that much more.Also, I know the drawover from that other anon was way better, but maybe the anon that wanted to see it colored likes mine as well
>>7757041let us see ur art anon
>>7757041Im feeling the exact same way, its fun to laugh at your own drawings.
Made this dunno what u think
Drew this earlier, I think I'm improving quickly.
What do you think about copying other people's art instead of photos?
>>7757105And do you lads have a great loomis tutorial on youtube? I draw along people like Chommang and Imji, but I don't know if that's a good way to get the hang of construction.
>>7757105perfectly fine, no one owns an art style
self portrait
>>7757055I like both pics honestly.You could call this one done and slap some fancy text in the upper right hand corner. Was this for something? Looks nice.>>7757084Horrifying yet inspirational. Kinda like ModeSeven>>7757105It used to be able to get you a job in the past. Like how the Pokemon team all copies Sugimori's style.
>>7757105It's a good way to learn

>>7757113Thank you>Was this for something? Not really. I designed the character for a discord thingy and wanted to do something with it. Also just been trying to do more illustrations in general, to get faster at it, so for that as well I guess.>>7757105You mean for studying? Yeah, and I think for most goals, a good mix of photos and artist copies is probably optimal.>>7757138kek, I love it>>7757126Love the smile, makes me happy. What manga is this from?

How often do you draw from reference compared to imagination? And how do you study a reference so you can draw from imagination later?
quick paint stufftrying to shake rust off eugh
>>7757194>from referenceEvery day, at least 30 minutes as I drink my morning coffee and listen to news>from imaginationWhenever I have an idea that I want to draw, which is pretty much every day too. That doesn't necessarily mean I'll finish it right away; sometimes I do, sometimes it takes me weeks to do so (while doing other things of course), but most times I never do, lol>study to draw from imaginationAside from redrawing from memory after copying, trying to draw certain images/characters from other povs or in other poses
Studied expressions (I'm doomed), so little time for my /beg/ contribution.>>7757198looks very classical.I am sure the refs are sculptures?>>7757109I feel you
>>7757204sketchwork by classical artists for those were the refs! nice work
>>7757005thank you for sharing. This technique seems to work very well. You have the nicest lines in these threads

>>7757254Nice effect. Kinda ethereal.
feel like i learned heads the wrong way
>>7757260Me too. It's pretty quick to correct once you realize the mistake.

Hi I’m struggling with drawing bodies they always look stiff and I just find it difficult:[ would really appreciate a redline/advice/critique anything to improve;; besos:)

>>7757296Your photographed work always has a lot of grain and noise. Use a brighter light and start using the zoom function instead of putting the Pixel camera so close to the paper.
>>7757305how would daylight be? you're right I wondered why mine was so grainy relative to other people's pictures
