YOU NEED TO DRAWIT IS AN AMAZING HOBBYEVERYONE WHO SEES THIS MUST ENTER THIS THREAD AND DRAW NOW!!
>>85262551No drawing requires effort and I'm not going to put any of that into anything other than typing this message to deny doing it.
I always wanted to draw porn and sometimes a few other things. I never made any progress when I tried to figure out how to draw and I'm not convinced that I ever could. There's no point in drawing if you can't draw something you want to see
>>85262551I tried and I wasn't immediately good at it so I stopped.
>>85262572>>85262596>>85262607Is there anyone on this board who hasnt given up on life?
>>85262551Too drunk to draw right now. You're right though. I should draw more
>>85262620We never had the support we needed and we probably never will. If you want normalnigger interaction you're better off going to instagram or something
>>85262620no, that's kind of our schtick
>>85262620Ok tell me what to draw and I'll draw it with my laptop trackpad :)
>>85262665Draw a cute girl
>>85262703Ok here you goTook me 30 seconds
>>85262551I hope you like it OP I made it just for you
>>85262551I have tried that already
>>85262551ok decided to try drawing something its a girl btw idk how to draw a body so i gave her a t shirt
>>85262744>>85262784>>85262809Why are all drawfags trannies 100% of the time lmao
>>85262825not even a tranny retarded schizo i tried drawing a dude at first but it just looked like a shitty wojak so i tried something different
>>85262825Retarded nigger I'm the opposite of a transgender.Is this >>85262744 not how women look?I literally drew exactly what my brain visualizes when I think of a cute girlActual weird-ass faggots on this board.
>>85262551thnx 4 reminding me
here's my lil grain of sand for the drawthread, yeeeeeehaw
>>85262551only if u draw me naked, op. im a big fat obese man that u need to draw
>>85262620I have, but here is my self portrait
>>85262744WELCUM TO DA RICE FEELDZ
>>85262620drawing well is genuinely too hard, it's not worth it.
yeah i suppose i should begin again
chudjak getting a kiss.
>>85263452I want to look down her shirt
>>85263564nasty doo doo
>>85262551Here is something I made (edited).Wanted to add other stereotypical characters but didn't find the time.
>>85263634Wait, that's the unfinished version.
>>85263617Fuck say something nice to me.
I don't do traditional art anymore but I love doing photobashing sort of stuff.>>85262620Me.>>85262825Dumb fuck.
>>85262551i sometimes draw and then it's just bad and i get mad and then give up
>>85263642this is a really big compliment
>>85262976Can i have sex with you please.
>>85263724do you have a link to more please i'm throbbing
I can't draw but I draw nonetheless
Not coherent imagesJust smileys in different colors or whatever
i wish i could draw porn or fetish stuff but my art sucks too much for it to be erotic, i've tried, but i just stick to using it to make memes at the very most
everyone in this thread is super talented>>85262744>>85262784these are my favorites C:
>>85262551I only truly get motivated to draw when it comes to imageboards. Uploading my work elsewhere gets 0 engagement which doesn't really drive me to make more. There's also more interesting inspirations to be found here. Too bad I don't want to spam this board with drawthreads
>>85262551I have a bit of technical skill I built in school out of boredom but my art is simply not appealing enough to be a skill worth pursuing long-term.thanks to AI though I don't feel embarassed about tracing anymore, so if I want to make something for myself I'll just trace.
>>85264349Another thing is that I don't like drawing blobs or anything "relatable". They're fine but not my slice of cake
Just drew this in like 5 minutes
>>85262744Started out like this and to this day I prefer to use MSpaint and mouse over my drawpad.
I used to draw a lot when I was a kid. I tried getting back into it for about 4 months at the end of last partly for fun but also to impress a girl then stopped and haven't done it since.
>>85264349>>85264442Your artstyle is very charming
>>85264783Thank you. Also drew >>85264709 this to put more effort rather than to just skribble
>>85263558Cutie patootie alert
>>85262551I have a shitty chromebook so cant drawbut Katherine is best girl, simple as
>>85263724WHAT DID I DOAll I wanted was to see boobies, fuck you and your enticing perspective.
>>85264852Don't worry anon the threat has been contained and heal is en-route
>>85264909Much appreciated anon, I almost died.
>>85262551I used to genuinely love drawing, to the point where id spend hours on tutorials, and ended up downloading bootleg flash and getting a Wacom tablet (at around 13) which crashed. im 27 and I want to restart >>85262596I remember drawing a big tiddy/booty woman naked and chained in a dungeon during my English class in high school, a lot of guys wanted to see it desu
I cant draw cause i am at work. Enjoy this excel tapestry i made instead.
>>85265166Excel art is an untapped source
>>85265217One day someone will found my work hard drive and my works will be posthumously praised and displayed in museums.
>>85265228Do not let them get deleted...
>>85262551I'm too busy doing math.
>>85265391Thank you. I will keep slacking off and making a bigger collection.
>>85262640>>85262839Please fucking relocate to>>>/pol/you bigots.
>>85266487shut the fuck up, botnigger
>>85266499>more racismsplease fucking relocate to>>>/pol/you massive bigot
racism on 4chan!!! what to heck!!!i hate niggers!!!!!
>>85266549>even more racismsplease fucking relocate to>>>/pol/you bigot
>>85262551Drawing takes thousands of hours of dedicated practice to get to the point where you can make stuff that doesn't look like shit, and I'd rather not waste that amount of time drawing abysmal dogshit, just for the chance (not even guarantee) that you MIGHT be able to make stuff in the future that won't immediately be mogged by some jeet going "SAAAR PLEASE GENERATE BIG BOBS AND VAGENE" into grok.
>>85262551I did for a year then it got too frustrating and not enjoyable. The few times I was happy with what I did didn't make up for all the times I had to stare at my failures again and again
>>85262551I hate that it takes ages to make something that isn't hideous. I want to be some boring faggot that draws portraits even though cameras and LLMs exist.
>>85264366>>85264833>>85266588Drawing is just putting a line after another, deleting an unwanted line and lastly vibe.
>>85267470Forgot to attach example>picrelNot very impressive but gets the idea through
>>85266588You dumb bitch. You don't do it for others. You do it for yourself
>>85262808hey this is actually good, as in it has this certain je ne sais quoi. Yeah, perspective and shapes are not good, but this is still an image I like to look at and thus better than most ever will acomplish
>>85267670Kinda true but I do draw for you anons' entertainment as well
>>85264852i made this last night in anticipation of a response, however, I did not expect this>>85264909Oh no, there will be hell to pay when I get home
>>85262551I cant draw, but i fuck around on photoshop ^<^.
Would anyone wanna draw a request?: https://litter.catbox.moe/3xuwlk.jpgYou can design some original character, furry or human, if those don't work.I'll provide a sample of what I scribbled I recently, its not good, but at least show effort is made: https://litter.catbox.moe/vddexs.png
>>85262551i know i need to draw but i have zero volition or energy or motivation of willpower or initiation or needs or desires or urges etc. autistic executive dysfunction is the worst hell imaginable
>>85264909drawing this made me wanna play tf2 again but then I remember every time I load it up I end up going against people who have been playing it for 2 decades atp
>>85268733This gray bikini bunny is cute. I want to draw it. But I don't get it, what's your request?
>>85263617disgusted girls are so cute
I want to draw white twinks being plapped by black men
>>85270177The text is in the lower left corner.https://litter.catbox.moe/1hliur.png
>>85270391Getting to it. I'll try my mediocre.
>>85270403Appreciated.Were you the anon who kept asking what outfits to draw on girls (and none was not an answer, kek)?
https://youtu.be/1OSWR7xiQLk?is=v_i3-HStYIoWyB9wMy Creativity Grind. Repeat until you get something that you want to draw again.
>>85270678>PricklesWhat a last name that is lol
>>85270712It's not my name, but his.
>>85262551I remember when I was maybe like 12, my grandma on my dad's side, got me an art set.I already had a Gameboy and a game gear though so I wasn't really pulled away from either of those until I'd run out of batteries.That just so happened one day and I figured I'd check out that dusty art set in the closet.I took out a colored pencil and the first thing I tried to draw was the curvature of an ass.It came out awful and that's the last time I ever tried to draw.
This is suppose to be my idea of the most beautiful female.
>>85270838I think this is actually good. You're pretty good at perspective
>>85270853Thanks, I half-assed (improv) my way through understanding how to draw the human body.
>>85268733here u go. I had lost you when the other thread died
>>85271147shit, you were faster
>>85271153ive been meaning to do their request for like what, 3 threads now? u should still drop urs, i only did it cause i was feeling guilty for promising them 3 times now haha
>>85271162>u should still drop ursJust as I saw your post, it was already deleted
>>85271177Undo the delete! Why would you do that, I'm sure you worked hard on it.
>>85262551I use to love drawing during my childhood up to 4th grade. I got to the point where I was trying to draw naruto but I was failing so I gave up.
>>85271187can't undo, trash bin empty, but don't worry, it wasn't that good
>>85266563Please go back to redit. Where the fuck do you think you are?
>>85271224no, sorry, I've found the backup
>>85271227ah come on now why wouldn't you drop that? that looks great. You can see the effort you put into it a lot more than mine. The colors, the blur for depth of field, the ambitious angle. I'm glad you found the backup and posted it very well done and nothing to be ashamed of, if anything you put mine to shame
>>85271238I was mostly playing around with this pic. I usually draw a lot more simplistic stuff, which I honestly like better. I respect those who can make something look good without putting too much effort.
>>85262551I drew this for a university-level art class in 2012. Whaddya think?
>>85271277>liquidsthese are empty bottles, but decent empty bottles, nonethelessalso are you japanese? if so then I'm curious, why are you posting on 4chan instead of 2ch?
>>85271147>I had lost you when the other thread diedDo you happen to remember which thread that was?This is the black-lined bunny I take it, from the reference.Wonderful work anon, you drew the body very nicely, love the curves in the hip area, all the tufts that really make her feel furry, as well as the detail of her fingernails. That slight flexing in the fins is also a nice touch.Is it the original size? If not, I'd like to grab it, if possible. As sometimes artists shrink draws for posting.>>85271153>>85271177Anon, no matter the quality, I appreciate anyone who tries. Don't be so hard on yourself. Just because someone else was faster, doesn't mean it invalidates your efforts.>>85271162I do wonder which one you were. Thanks for your dedication.>>85271227>re-writing as you ended up posting it>it wasn't that goodThis is a good draw for all the reasons the other anon said. Drawing poses like this isn't easy, but you did a solid job with it. You put alot of effort into drawing her hair trying to match the two-toneness it has, and I like how you drew the ears flowing downward, which implies she's on the move. The tail is invitingly fuzzy. I like how you drew a bit of her fur coming up around the string of the bikini, not only implying tightness but also the thickness of her fur. Nice butt. I would have preferred normal plantigrade feet, but since she had no reference below the waist, it's not a big deal.Thank you very much anon for taking the time, and please don't be so quick to delete your stuff, your cake is also very tasty!
>>85271312>emptyThey were full in real life at the time.>are you Japaneseno, just a weeb. At that time, a weeb who was living in Korea.
>>85271274you should def continue to play around and have fun with it anon. it's the most pure form of art imo, full of sovl. don't ever let people discourage you from creating if it brings you joy. your passion bleeds through and ppl will pick up on that
>>85271313yeah that's the original size, if you want it be larger you can run it through like an upscaler or something. i keep resolution pretty low for stuff like this
>>85262808You have potential to make 4D landscape art.Hone your skill anon
>>85271351>i keep resolution pretty low for stuff like thisNo worries, thanks for confirming it.I'll have to try and archive search to remember which artist you were.
>>85262808Don't know if you are still here but I really dig your drawing, were you the anon making landscapes before? Is this a Japanese scene? That m logo with the circle in it looks like the classic Mazda logo. Did you mirror that side of that building, because I see it to the right as well.Also a red star thing to the left which I thought was a Canadian flag.How long does it take to draw this, you drew all these little cars, so its cool.Can you post the actual file? screenshoting usually gives a less than stellar pic quality. Post the png if you can.
>>85271339>you should def continue to play around and have fun with it anonYou don't have to tell me that. It think there would be a lot less "my life is so horrible" threads if people found out how much fun drawing is. Drawing as in the act itself, not the product.>>85271313>I would have preferred normal plantigrade feetI was wondering about that. Flippers on these elongated feet do really look weird, but I was mostly going by the kemono "hands" on the reference
>>85271327what's the crosshair for?
>>85271419Nta, they had posted this drawing last year on ic on the beg/int thread. It's based on this reference from Solaris by Tarkovsky
>>85271436>on these elongated feet do really look weirdYeah. I don't often ask for characters with that foot type, for that reason. Some artists make it work though.>but I was mostly going by the kemono "hands" on the referenceI feel that three or four toed feed look best on furry characters. Maybe they have claws, maybe not.I tried to show a crappy example (I really miss when Catbox didn't shit the bed every half hour): https://postimg.cc/XZRzf9bg
>>85271582Oh, looked it up its a 1970s film. Neat.
>>85271594yes it's a very cinematic film, very tasteful, very artistic, many gorgeous shots, but like we all said when they posted it on ic, their interpretation of the shot is brimming with sovl
>>85262551Not my drawing but here is sbog!
>>85271604>Not my drawingBut you should have drawed.Who is sbog?
>>85271587who's this character?>>85262808interesting, the bluish colors made me think it was a western city, but on >>85271582 its dark grayness (despite the daytime sky) instantly made me think of the eastern block>>85271604real man bean
made this self portrait a while ago hope you catch my vibe
>>85271620>who's this character?The grey bunny? Just a random one off design an artist drew twice and never drew again. I liked it though, and the stripped swimwear is nice.
>>85271162...were you the guy drawing chuds, by chance?
>>85271643>and never drew againBummer. It's was adorable.
>>85271660Yeah, it's always a bit of a let down when an artist creates and hits on a good design and then never draws it again.But hey, that just means the unclaimed character can get drawn by anyone else who likes it, and isn't that what art is all about? Inspiring others to draw? If you like the design, you can make your own cool take on it.
>>85271653yeah I drew a chud in the thread I said I'd draw something for you
>>85271681I'll do that, just not today. Because I am drawing something else now. I don't usually like kemono, but bunny girls and catgirls don't have snouts so they're an exception.>>85270502>Were you the anon who kept...forgot to answer but yes
>>85262551>be me>really wanna hang out with a guy one on one so he can watch me play the arcon quest in genshin>wait for him to come online>hes online for a bit but when he joins the call a bunch of people join as well>defen so he can finish talking to them so then him and I can hang out one on one>he leaves while I'm deafened and alt tabbed>wait hours for him to come online>hang out in the server just in case he comes back, when he doesn't I tell the other person I was talking to I have to dip>he comes back not long after I leave>feel like a dick for rejoining after I said I could leave but is happy is happy he's back>6 people join the call because they see he's in there>wait for them to leave, stay in the call this time so he doesn't leave because he thinks im muted again>he falls asleep fml
>>85271698Ah yeah, thank you chud-bee anon, I appreciate you.
>>85267670>You don't do it for others. You do it for yourselfYes, but I want to be able to be able to produce good stuff for myself so I can be happy with what I'm doing, and getting to that point takes thousands of hours.
>>85271741Whoa, blue lined bunny, is it really you? It's been months! I had wondered where you had gone.Your Everclear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKCESyMo0_A
>>85271419Which landscapes? Probably.This one came out a little more graphic than I wanted, but it's okay.It took me about ten hours give or take. I've got a much better master file that isn't so blurry.This shot is from 1980s Japan, so I have no idea about the buildings, logos, etc.
>>85271604Sbog is teh manliest man to ever man that a drawanon drawed for me. Here's something I draweded for other anons!
>>85271354>4DWhat??>>85271582I am happy someone rememberedMaybe one day I can do it physically
>>85268677I very much enjoy edits like these, especially with gore or meat or absurdity
>>85271612oops meant to reply to u!>>85271776
>>85271757NTA, I think most of the fun in drawing comes from the process of figuring out clever methods on how to project various things on the canvas. It's like a puzzle game in a sense. Or engineering.Still, it's only a hobby if you approach it that way.>>85271769Was the strange geometry intentional? it came out surreal. Very cool.
>>85271796Not quite. It was my first real big project. It was what got me back into it after a few years of not really trying.Others have said that too.Knowing that, would I change it to be perfect, or keep it irregular with some character?
>>85271769>Which landscapes? Probably.The Slavic onesHello new desktop wallpaper!Thanks anon for the bigger copy.
>>85262551What if instead I shot myself in the face and died on the spot
>>85271815>Knowing that, would I change it to be perfect, or keep it irregular with some character?Wait, are you asking me? I like the inconsistent perspective a lot. Realism is overrated.>>85271825go ahead
>>85271822I appreciate that very much.
>>85271760I'm flattered you remember me. Yeah I stopped going to a lot of places online 4chan included for a while. 'Ive just mentally been not great. I love the song though, added it to one of my playlists.
>>85271822>>85271844Oh, and yes. But I'm sure you've figured that out by now>>85271834That's fair, Francis bacon or Picasso come to mind.
>>85271858>I'm flattered you remember me.You had a pretty active thread from what I can remember. I think you also had a thing for pee? I'm not entirely sure. I had given you a request and you mentioned you'd remember to do it later, but you were by your own admission drunk, and you never came back, heh
>>85271866I forgot this one as well
>>85271915what was the request? I'll draw it now if you want. I'm tempted to make another thread like that, but I was just drinking yesterday and idk if I wanna drink 2 days in a row. I only got buzzed then, not drunk. Very tempted.
>>85271858>I love the song though, added it to one of my playlists.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Everclear_(band)#DiscographyThat entire 1997 album is solid I recommend it, moreover if you are a fan of 90s alt rock.>what was the request? I'll draw it now if you want.I dug around for the original ref I posted, added a few things to it.https://litter.catbox.moe/q7oqh8.pngIt was for your avatar. Is that okay? I can provide other characters if you need them.>and idk if I wanna drink 2 days in a row.Do you prefer to drink when drawing?Also if I miss say things I fell asleep. Please post of the full size, if you shrink your draws.
>>85272031>Also if I miss say things*saying thanks
>>85272031NTA, but what's up with all the swimwear?
this nigga has a scuba fetish
>>85272031I prefer to drink when doing anything, im an alcoholic lol. But especially when im doing free requests. Its a win win, you get free art, and I get an excuse to drink without feeling like im drinking for no reason drinking alone. also I'll draw it for you (and your answer to this wont effect that at all) but I am curious, is it a fetish? If so when did you get the fetish? It's a really unusual one, that's why im curious.
>>85272070I'm gonna take a shot first though, as a treat. Drunk artwork is free, sober stuff costs money
>>85271716>I don't usually like kemono, but bunny girls and catgirls don't have snouts so they're an exception.They can sometimes have a little nose bump, but yeah, they are very forgiving in terms of face shape. You should also consider mouse girls. Here is a mouse girl I drew a while back (one of many): https://postimg.cc/N2F4H0nQAlso, here are a few one offs from artists you might like: https://postimg.cc/4KTKYbNf>>85272049It is summer...>>85272070>and I get an excuse to drink without feeling like im drinking for no reason drinking alone.Take it easy on your liver anon, you only got one.>but I am curiousIn the most simple compact form, I'll say this - I like how a character moves/looks underwater. It's a great setting to experiment with any pose (but that also makes it harder to draw). Girls wearing swimwear (or lack thereof) is always in fashion. The gear, well, I like accessorised character designs, and that stuff usually comes in different colors and designs for a sense of variety. I'm really tired, I hope that sufficed.
>>85272135>Take it easy on your liver anon, you only got one.hey! I said if you want the free art you have to encourage the drinking not discourage it!lol anyway heres the drawing I hope you like it
>>85272135I forgot. Rodents are also mostly cute. Regarding the mouse girl you drew, the bikini top looks tense, like a strung bow. The beach balls are going to hit her head in a moment.>I'm really tiredgo to sleep. Most probably I'm going to be bumping this thread
>>85272165Thank you for your doodle drinking bun anon, wow you were fast, 20 mins. I can see you put some nice float effect in the hair. Dunno if you're gonna flesh it out more but I appreciate you taking the time.I will now pass now I've been up too late.>>85272172>spoilerI think I drew that as a joke that a mouse girl would be pretty small chested or flat.Here's another random one I found I did: https://postimg.cc/pmdZrvrHWhen characters have big ears, I like earrings and stuff in them. Also drives home the fact their female.
>>85272246Would you mind if tried to redraw that mouse?
>>85272299ah, well, whatever
I feel not great and the sunrise makes me anxious
>>85272715did something happen? summer heat?>picI should bite the bullet and try learning to draw boys
>>85272730Summer heat mostly, also family members wake upI would like to learn how to draw more detailed boys.
>>85272738he looks like Konata desu>I would like to learn how to draw more detailed boys.draw a boy and add details
>>85272713gyatt, I've just noticed how fucking weird the left hand is
>>85270094Thanks a bunch anon.
>>85272745I already really like how this one turned out
>>85273720nice, he advanced from Konata to a bishounen
>>85273727Cute term, never heard of it before. It is way better than always being called a femboy.
>>85273744huh? you've never heard that before? I thought you were specifically aiming to make the guy look like a bishounen
>>85262551Le internet buddhist
>>85273760I like drawing pretty boys and androgynous boys yeah, I am androgynous myself so I lean into that kind of style. Never specifically heard "bishounen" though. Twink, maybe.
>>85273774LOL FAG YOU LIKE BOOTYSEX
>>85273774I guess pretty things exist outside of weeb media too, not that it's not heavily influenced
>>85273786I like asian art style more, I absolutely hate western art style
>>85273792understandablle
drew the loser cat
i drew a cat :D
>>85273829a cat iis fine too
>>85273829She cute would impregnate
>>85272730>I should bite the bullet and try learning to draw boys/cm/ has one of the most slowest moving drawthreads, so you might as well take a look.
>>85272713Sorry, I fell asleep. No need to ask permission, but it was nice you were being considerate.>>85272713Wow, it blows my mind when someone else draws something based on something I drew, is this how OCs are officiated? lol.I usually just draw one-offs since I'm not good and consistent enough to maintain a steady OC, plus I've never really thought I'm creative enough to come up with an appealing design. Like anything I draw feels likes trash but everyone else can create really cool and interesting characters.Thank you for this drawing, I will treasure it.
>>85262551I drew a Fender Stratocaster from memory on my first try.
I drew a mousey faced girl in bunnysuit
>>85274513eyes feel a little close together, but i like the mouth and nose
>>85274589Original critique response thanks
>>85270797>I was a spoiled, porn-addicted little brat
>>85262551I can't draw now the online store was out of stock and my tablet won't arrive until the end of the month. Also I don't have the energy or attention span to spend on drawing after work.
My favourite artstyle is so unerotic it's unreal
>>85271524That was a more 'official' (as in graded) drawing; we had to use the crosshair for proportions and such.
>>85262551I drew knuckles pregnant nigga
>>85274922fukken kek, and nice>the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy hedgehog

I am pooped out and showered.
>>85262551i think to some degree, drawing requires innate ability that those adept refuse to acknowledge. >just le pick up le pencil!!!i've drawn since i came out of the womb and i never got any better. i finally gave it up around 2021
>>85277469Do you have any samples of your art still?
Are we dead?
>>85277551i have a lot. old sketchbooks and whatnot. i was never good enough to get anything scanned.also bookmarked a desuarchive version of a thread i did back in 2018 where people asked me to draw stuff. one of my favorite threads i ever did on here, actuallywhy?
me when I get drunk
>>85278477Reminds me of when I did acid a couple years ago and had vivid images of these little creatures while listening to weird fishes. A drew them and a girl I knew made them for me
>>85278333>bookmarked a desuarchive version of a thread i did back in 2018May I see it?
>>85277469That may be true, however, this logic always discounts the amount of effort people put into developing a skill. If you were to look at my art right now it'd be very easy to say I'm talented. If you were to look at where my art was when I started, it'd paint a different story. The facts are that I put thousands upon thousands upon thousands of hours into practice. The same amount of time people put into playing games and stuff, I put into drawing. Why? Because I want to draw cool shit.
>>85278571eh, i just looked at that thread and those drawings i did were straight up dogshit. it's a "you had to be there" kind of thing.i'll give you this, though. a less-than-mediocre drawing i did of my living room back in 2019
>>85262551I spent this whole morning into the afternoon drawing, I will soon go back for more. I do not really know if I want to post my stuff on here, but drawing is a great and fun hobby to have.
>>85278586>however, this logic always discounts the amount of effort people put into developing a skill.as i said>that those adept refuse to acknowledgeartists have a propensity to downplay any sort of idea that they may not be in total control of their ability to create. i suspect it comes from the fetishization of "hard work from the ground up, blood, sweat and tears" mentality that gets propagated a lot. having a leg up isn't as cool as a story of pain and turmoilbut you're definitely not going to tell me that any old average joe or jane can just pick up a pencil and become picasso/van gogh 2.0>Because I want to draw cool shit.i wanted to draw cool shit too, anon. and i tried, for years and years. i never improved.
>>85278654ATP in life I've easily put 5000+ hours into drawing maybe more desu. Maybe half of that was actually deliberate effort and study. I don't know how your point invalidates the fact that I've put a ton of time into art, and a good portion of that actively trying to improve. The facts are that I did have to do a lot of hard work, and there were a tears of frustration with myself. Lmao. You must browse ic because this is the same blackpill rhetoric over there
>>85278616Did you draw any characters or just settings and landscapes?
>>85278678>I don't know how your point invalidates the fact that I've put a ton of time into art,i'm not trying to. i make music as well, anon. point being that i'm into multiple forms of art and i know how it works. i'm just pointing out that you and most artists deny having an innate ability that helps you along somewhat. i think you're also missing the point in that i've never said you were 100% carried by inborn talent.>You must browse ic because this is the same blackpill rhetoric over therei've never once gone on that board. that's a problem with the internet today. everything is a big tribalist conspiracy. i'm just venting about a topic i'm (admittingly) fairly opinionated about. it's not even as serious as i'm making it out to be
>>85278722i did both. also liked drawing funny looking creatures i would have dreams about.sorry, but i'm reaching the limit of "i's" and "me's" and it's coming off a bit narcissist/egotistical
>>85278616>tfw tried searching that filename and only got this threaddamn
>>85278749the funniest part is that i have another pic taken of that drawing in 2019 and didn't use it. just took a picture of it right after you asked
>>85262551i keep trying to draw the heads people have in most anime and other things but i can never seem to get itmy iq is quite low so i cant really understand how to draw circles/spheres or place features correctly because they simply dont ever rotate properly in my mindbut im very dumb and have 0 talent so i think more people should at least give it a shot, theyd definitely do better than me at least
>>85278763I'm not the same guy. Just lurker.
>>85278726It's like going to the gym anon. Some people can get stronger and bigger than others faster, but the facts are, you still have to show up. People throw around talent so easily for any skill and it completely discounts the tax of time that is paid for mastery. It's obnoxious. It's why whenever someone is good at something I don't ever call them talented anymore. I call them skilled, because the facts are that any skill no matter how talented you are does require you to show up and put time into it. I think me and you were around the same skill level when I first started getting serious about learning art. What books did you study from? What courses? What fundies did you feel you needed to improve on? Etc. The point I'm trying to make is, most people just don't put deliberate effort into improvement.
>>85278748>and it's coming off a bit narcissist/egotisticalKek, we are just talking about something you used to do, that's normal. You're not being smug about it or anything.
>>85278809>most people just don't put deliberate effort into improvement.i think it's moreso that everyone has a breakpoint ceiling to how much they can improve, learn and grow and i'm "lucky" enough that mine is fairly low. ironically, you feel invalidated that i'm saying you have a talent and i feel invalidated that you refuse to understand that i'm well aware of my limits.i'm not so enthused about making art these days anyway, since ai slop becomes more and more prevalent by the day, as more and more people give less of a fuck about the fun of creation because of how optimized modern life is for instant gratification. my guitars collect dust. my basses collect dust. my amp collects dust. my pencils, sketchbooks, etc.besides all of that, i don't have any interesting or worthwhile shit to express anyway, so i need to shut the fuck up and fully join the rat race already>>85278839nah, i'm being an asshole. i do apologize, but it's hard for me to express opinions without coming off as rude. i also really don't like talking about myself in general since i have an extremely pretentious and egotistical/self-important way of speaking when i do and too reliant on being self-referential
anyways, thanks for lending an ear to my petulant bitching, guise. i'm just bitter because i never quite got where i wanted to be and can't make up for lost time with the ever looming threat of marching timekthnxbai <3
>>85278880ok put aside the bullshit for a second because ultimately none of what we were talking about matters. However, don't stop creating, in whatever way that means for you. you can't let go of the things that bring you joy.
>>85277469In my experience illustration skills come with observation skills. The more attention you pay to the world around you, the more capable you are of recreating it in your imagination.I draw maybe once a year but I pay attention to my surroundings a lot
>>85278477Why do the ghosts bite you
>>85279123>this picsoul
>>85262551It's a skill I always wanted to learn but I'm too old now (26).
>>85262551I do, but I end up talking myself out of it because I hate myself.
>>85279905probably won't be great at it but you can still be good at itt. decade older and learning anyway
>>85279123This nga gets it. You can doodle all your life and it will always be shit if you don't do it with purpose. This goes for most things in life, just wake up
What software do I use to draw on linux?
>>85279893Is this a good or bad thing anon o.o
>>85281273Gimp, Krita, Inkscape... you know Google exists anon
Drew my kitty just for you op
