Why do koreans keep stealing Japanese terms? Don't they have self-respect? Only Japanese use "croquis" to refer to gesture drawings.
>>8025486I don't see much improvement. Seems obvious he could have added more details/drawn more slowly on the 1st day's sketches, making them look similar to the 60th ones. Based on google translate, he's just doing sketches based on photos and other gook's artworks. Hard to tell whether he got better at capturing the pose without seeing the reference.
>>8025486I wouldn't call those gestures from day 1 beginner gestures
>>8025490>Only Japanese use "croquis" to refer to gesture drawings.Well, apparently not anymore.Geographical boundaries for terms are kind of meaningless in the internet age anyway.
>>8025490Japanese is pretty much the lingua franca for anime artists
>>8025547This. It's also a language that wasn't engineered to cripple your ability to draw anime.
>>8025490>Only Japanese use "croquis" to refer to gesture drawings.No, the term croquis is used also to refer to gesture drawings of live models in some other countries besides Japan and South Korea.Anyway "croquis" is french for "sketch" so it is obviously a fitting term to use for gesture drawing.
>>8025486Turns out if you work at something consistently and regularly, improvement can come with surprising speed.This break /ic/;'s brain, because they don't work at all.
>>8025486gesture drawings is generally the place to test and apply information you learned from books or as a warm up but it should still have some scaffolding behind it
>>8025558>Anyway "croquis" is french for "sketch" so it is obviously a fitting term to use for gesture drawing.Misusing a French word is cool, now?
Why are you trying to doompost? He clearly has drawing experience and this was just him returning to focus on fundies for 2 months."There was a time when I didn't practice because my anatomy was terrible, but then one day I finally made up my mind to practice. When I looked at sites like Pixiv, all the liked stuff was characters, and I realized that you need anatomy as a foundation to draw characters properly. "This is not someone's tenth day drawing ever
>>8025486Unironically yes most likely. I dedicated myself to grinding anatomy from morpho and gesture studies when I had lost my job back in 2024. I'd wake up and immediately start studying, then think about my studies for 2 hours after that then do a concept mastery check around the evening. That shit was unsustainable, however, the gains were immense, and I had started to only think about art and fundies. My mind and thoughts had begun to become that of an artist's, or at least, that's what I'd imagine it's what it takes to become a pro. You have to live and breathe practice and art, it has to become your obsession.
>>8025969Sometimes I wish I could quit my job and just dive back into doing art for 8 hours a day like that again. When I look at the progress I made during that time, the jump from where and skill level change were pretty dramatic, at least in my eyes. I'm so fucking jealous of people that are NEETs man. You all have the golden ticket. Use it before it's gone.
>>8025486Day 1 already looks like someone who has been drawing for 10 years. Is every thread on this board bait?
>>8025577Gesture drawing is a subcategory of sketching.Therefore all gesture drawings are sketches.Therefore calling a gesture drawing croquis is accurate.The French call this "logique".
