because that's 80% of the work, digifags can't into thumbnails and streaming is incredibly gay so no shit you'd want to avoid having some friendless zoomers spamming emotes at you for as long as much of the work as possible

normies select their streams based on the thumbnail preview they see. Having something of substance makes it so that you attract more attention at the start of the stream which boosts your presence in the algo, blah blah fucking

Streaming already is stressful enough as it is. They don't want to worry about getting stuck on a sketch that isn't going anywhere.
Maybe they don't want you to see certain things. Tracing, abusing the liquify tool or spending one hour to draw a hand.
That, or they don't want you to see their reference material which likely includes other artists that they copy from.
Those artists usually have something to hide.

>no-draw cope
Because they trace AI/3d models.

>>7848428
Because that's the part that requires concentration. Streaming is, by its nature, a distraction. Also, this >>7848437. Basic marketing would make it obvious that having a potential viewer mouse over and only see a blank canvas or a barely-started sketch isn't going to be good for your growth on the platform.

>>7848428
It will not make an entertaining content to trace over 3D/AI/photobashes

>>7848490
>>7848487
And also this too
Once you've done the entire sketch the subsequent steps are kinda just autopilot and having to stream while sketching will be quite straining unless you're used to working while being watched

>>7848486
>nooooooo you don't understand they're CHEATING they're only better than me because they're CHEATING it's actually IMPOSSIBLE to do that without CHEATING that's why I can't do it because my morals are just too high to CHEAT like them
you might wanna look up what coping means lol

To show off the rendering instead, which is less mentally intensive, and usually quicker too.
Rendering is also probably the more fun aspect to watch for most, as it has that 'wow' factor of becoming a finished piece, while a sketch will most likely only remain a sketch by the end of the stream (or receiving lifework if the streamer is speedy).

If they're doing a full day long stream, I'm sure they could show off the sketching, but what if the sketch is poorly executed, or just a bad idea that can only be found to be such when put on paper? It can bring the stream to an awkward screeching halt.

This is all to say, I can totally understand why an artist may prefer to sketch privately, rather than do that on stream.

meanwhile in a real artist stream

Cheating, it's always cheating.

>>7848632
Where's the cheating here, xir (You) baiter?

>>7848428
They did the sketch at the end of the last stream? Are you so dense?

>>7848486
Ah yes because it's 100% impossible to trace while live streaming

>>7848428
maybe the sketch comes from a big collection of already finished sketches

>>7848428
CTRL Z CRTL Z CRTLZ OMG WAIT FUCK CRTL Z *loses majority of viewers*

>>7850638
I believe the point was that a real artist (pic related) doesn't need to cheat, hence "real artist".

Because they can't draw without a thousand undos and liquify.

>>7848428
to not have long amounts of time doing nothing, or show the artist at their weakest
sketching out an idea can take long amounts of time of boring reference hunting or just looking at the screen deciding what to do. writer's block for artists if you will. not exciting for the audience
early sketches can be pretty sloppy and many ideas can be thrown out. you don't want to get someone getting sensational and calling an artist a fraud for sketching something bad. look what happened to proko

also when you're streaming, you have to be decently attentive to your viewers, since sketching requires more thinking than inking or coloring its harder to do when your focus is split. inking and coloring are pretty straight forward processes

it's the most time consuming part and not entertaining to watch. streaming is a form of entertainment for the viewer, especially for non-artists.
there are plenty that do though, one example:

>>7848428
>for what purpose?
To hide their methods, of course. Same reason they crop out the UI

>>7848632
how do i start sketching random poses like this off the dome? im 2 years into learning art and it feels like im trapped into this space of only being able to copy references, not make anything new

>>7855402
solid drawing

>>7855402
Have you.... tried drawing from memory at all?
Zoomers are so retarded holy shit.

>>7848428
speaking as someone who does this: it's because I know myself well enough to know that my blank page to finished sketch process is typically hard to present, and also doesn't always result in something I'm satisfied enough with to proceed with finishing. having a satisfactory sketch before the stream guarantees that I have something to build off of without restarting or noodling around.

I can't speak to how common it is that it's people using ai/3D but i wouldn't be surprised- but I don't believe it's an ALWAYS/EVERYTIME thing.

>>7848428
there are streamers who starts from an empty canvas tho
