Which is harder to learn and why is it anime style drawings?
>>

>retarded third world animals can draw anime but not realism from imagination
Hmm, you got that wrong
>>
>>7846056
anime and it's not even close. Realistic garbage is just shading and coloring
>>
>>7846400
Explain
>>
>>7846056
Anyone can just learn how to become a photocopier and draw realistically. Anime relies more on appeal which a lot of /ic/ lacks.
>>
>>7846409
Nothing stopping you from being an anime photocopier either

Explain what? just watch pro time-lapses, realism is mechanical and boring and most of them don't even know how to draw.
>>
>>7846419
Why would you compare the pros from one side with the begs on the other?

I'd like to see you try. You can tell if somebody traced an anime pic, it looks like absolute shit, even if the lines are drawn in the same location.
>>
>>7846423
yup most just know how to render
>>
>>7846440
nigga they are pros
>>
>>7846425
Are you retarded, why would it be hard to trace an anime pic 1:1. There are plenty of 12yo kids doing it in minecraft/roblox
>>
>>7846056
Drawing realistic cunny will get you in trouble.
>>
>>7846056
pyw of left and right and we'll see which one is harder
>>
>>7846822
Only higher beings do so.
>>
>>7846056
I mean if you were expected to do fully realistic portraits from imagination then that would be harder.
But in practice no one does that, realism vs anime always actually means copying a reference vs imagination + animation, and the latter is undoubtedly harder.
>>
>>7846056
Pyw

>>7846056
why is drawing exactly what you see, so impossible? Its the hardest thing in the world. Its easier to fight an alligator than to draw one. If you consider every point on a canvas to be an option to place a dot of ink, you have maybe a coulple thousand spots for each dot that is close enough to the correct point, and you have to do this millions of times when you create a line. It becomes exponentially hard very quickly. And that's with PERFECT ROBOTIC HANDS, we have human flesh hands so you aren't even DRAWING WHERE YOU INTEND TO DRAW.

In anime you have to be a lot more confident and intentional with your shapes and strokes. ofc you can take the skill ceiling as high as you want in either but in realistic art you can start to flub details that the viewers brain fills in.
Think of it like how a rough sketch looks fine and then when you go over it to do line art it suddenly looks bad. Realism is the rough sketch and anime is the bad line art.

There's nuance to this, good art in either is hard and if we're talking about really good artists it's maybe different. But especially for beg, drawing a good looking anime picture will be harder than drawing a good looking realistic picture.
>>
>>7846056
Both of those are jst a copy of a photo.
Which is easier than drawing. Both anime and realism are the same level of hardness seeing as how realism is the same thing but stylized less.
>>
>>7848972
deciding what to simplify, ignore or exaggerate in an appealing way is much harder than drawing a grid and copying values from a black and white photo of the joker
>>
>>7849008
If you could find an anime character in real life to photograph I guess
>>
>>7846400
>>7846056
let's see it then, do a realistic sketch right now if it's that easy
>>
>>7846056
study bargue plates and you can bargue an anime character like it was a vase or a bunch of grapes. it is just form.
>>
>>7848992
Whats stopping you from drawing a grid and making a copy of naruto? Thats drawing in an anime style no?
>>
Realism = understanding form + making it fit into an appealing shape
Anime = understanding realism + making it fit into an appealing shape

Anime is easier to draw at low resolution (chibi, exaggerated styles), but harder as you approach more detailed styles, with complex eyes and mouths that defy 3D logic.

And a poorly drawn anime image will be less abhorrent than a poorly drawn realistic image, because it dodges the uncanny valley.
>>
Anime and manga require mostly line drawing as caricatures. It can be more detailed, but it's usually simplistic. If you can get the proportions down, then you can draw that style. It's not that hard.
>>
>>7846056
Anime is very easy to learn. All you need to do is copy and trace. That's something a lot of weebs don't get about "drawing like their favorite mangaka". Most mangaka (casual or pro) learn by copying and tracing their favorite artists. Even youngsters get this. If you ever look at what children draw in Japan (and how they do it), it's all copying and tracing.

Tracing and copying as ways of studying is seen as taboo or anti-creative when it comes to amateur art circles in America. Part of this is because too many artists will lie and claim their traced or copied work is original, but also because a lot of artists (who have a natural aptitude towards drawing) want to sabotage others from competing with them.
>>
>>7846425
obviously you cant tell because most of manga has either traced or redrawn backgrounds and even poses from something else, which is again just copying. stop posting before you embarass yourself further, nodraw.
