A thread dedicated to art made exclusively with lines.Post your own work or line art that inspires you.Discuss what makes hatching so much cooler than painting and other related topics.
Another from my man, Mr. Finlay
I know it's an /ic/ meme, but I genuinely think this Picasso is an all-time great. The line economy is incredible and everything feels like it's in the right place with no wasted effort.
>>7823660But I like stuff like this in general. "Minimal" drawings that show deep understanding.

>>7823670Urasawa draws great, varied faces with few lines
>>7823671
This thread definitely has to have some Franklin Booth in it.

>>7823673Last one for now. Taiyou Matsumoto does this thing a lot in Takemitsuzamurai, where he'll reduce to a form or shape just a few tightly drawn lines. George Grosz did that a lot too in his drawings. It's influenced my own art.

>>7823457Bump based thread >>7823660This is probably the best thing Picasso ever did, I don't like his paintings >>7823670Love this one too
Always the same 100 pictures and manga in those threads.Isn't there anything new?
>>7824167no because 99% of great line art beyond random sketches was simply a matter of limitation and/or economics of reproduction, and even then a lot of them were engravings done from paintings rendered into line by the engraver, not actually produced as such
finally a cool thread
>>7824167I didn't really intend for the thread to just be about dumping art. Anons could always post their own art if they want something original. Maybe we need a thread challenge, a picture or painting that would be hard to convert to lines.>>7823660Idk how someone could look at those hands and think this is a meme.
An attempt at what publishers were looking for in the way of interior illustration for books. Simple clean lines easily printable.
