Guys... I really need your help. I wanna learn to draw in semi-realistic anime style. I have been trying to teach myself for the past 1 year. I tried the coloso chyan, mogoon, ritotuna courses.. but they didn't really help. I can't draw shit now. I wanna master this skill. And i am ready to put in the one.. Please suggest what i should do. Any resources i should refer to anything.Thanks for reading this. Hope you have a good day:)
Good day. You can start by posting your latest drawings so we can understand your current level and recommend a specific area of study for you.
>>7777542Why. The. Fuck. Don't. You. Post. Your. Art. For. Starters.I think your isse is low intelligence. Nobody here can fix that.
do the russian academic course
>>7777552>because you need to draw wrinkly old men before you are allowed to draw what you actually want
>>7777542It's gonna sound boring but if you want any amount of realism in your art you'll want to practice fundamentals. Boxing, construction, perspective. You'll also want to copy the shit out of whatever artists you like.>I tried the coloso chyan, mogoon, ritotuna courses.. Don't pick too many teachers at once especially if you're starting out. Get one course/book/whatever and stick with it.
>>7777553>tried the rest>refuses to try the bestpermabegdom it is, then
>>7777542You’re over complicating things. Study FAPS. It will teach you everything you need to know to draw competently: Form, Anatomy, Perspective and Style. You don’t really need anything else, just mileage the fuck out of FAPS and you’ll do fine.
>>7777552Russians are sloppers now. All the realistic academic courses are by chinks
>>7777550These are my latest drawings

>>7777560semi-realistic anime is the definition of slop, I don't understand your argument
>>7777551Anon I've posted my works. Sorry for not doing it earlier
>>7777554Which resources would you recommend
>>7777572Sigh.>>7777551>I think your isse is low intelligence. Nobody here can fix that.
>>7777559Can you please explain what FAPS are
>>7777575Wym
>>7777576FAPS = Form, Anatomy, Perspective, Style. Form = drill the ability to draw a box from various angles, manipulate 3d shapes by carving into them, etc. Anatomy = understanding of the human body + lots of figure drawing. Perspective = understanding the pattern/formula of vanishing points implicitly and how objects are affected by them. Style = copying whatever artists style you want to have, noting the shapes and ways of describing form. None of these have to be perfect or mastered but they should be practiced regularly.
Its over for you OP
>>7777580Thank you. I'm taking your advice and gonna start practicing forms and FAPS drills. Thanks for the info anon
>>7777570>>7777568>>7777567>>7777566It might be a reasonable idea to stop drawing.
>>7777542why are you asking us? you can literally see her entire drawing process and techniques on her youtube channel, there's also other artists who made studies of her art, sorry for being harsh but if you cant learn from that youre literally retardedhttps://www.youtube.com/@yoneyamai/streams
>>7777582>>7777589https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oDLoleIfAroIts never over untill you decide it is.Hope you'll guys would understand this one day :)
>>7777591Anon i am suffering from aphantasia.I've given up on some of the things i enjoyed doing. And i can wholeheartedly say this... I have never ever loved anything more than art. I literally have this enthusiasm alive which hasn't been affected a bit after all the stuff i wrnt through. I fr had some moments where i hated how much i am incapable of doing it. But nevertheless i an enthusiastic to improve my art
>>7777570>>7777568>>7777567>>7777566Every day do at least three reference studies and when you do them do NOT undo, do NOT erase. Think about each line before you draw it and try to draw it right the first time. If it's wrong just carry on and finish the drawing. It's going to look bad at first but if you stick with it you'll learn how to properly use your eyes and hands when drawing.
>>7777611Thanks for the advice anon. Will do stick to it
>>7777582>>7777589>"you have to be pro-tier from the prebeg stage"grim
