>>4481814
cool thanks

>>4473804
What do they do when theyre memeing it? Is it not really true? Also thank you

>>4473807
No, just how brutal it is makes it great for shitting on CalArts and bad art schools. It's absurd but true, Mr. Williams actually had a very important point.

>>4473833
Found it

>>4473866
That's pretty cool

>>4473891
By cool you mean depressing?

>>4474792
>>4474716
I think I just wanna die so much that offsetting that desire would need something unrealistic.

get face tattoos and become a rapper, it’s literally the only way to make it

>>4473761
there's a meme?

>>4474811
>expecting to make it with such pussy ass low effort
>not opening CSGO crates on stream and every time you get loot you say OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH and take off a part of your fursuit
>not being an actual genetically altered technicolor human wolf hybrid underneath the fursuit
>not wearing a diaper to auction at the end of the stream so you can afford brand name lentils
NGMI

Based af. Rooting for you buddy you can do it.

>>4473720
>draw your shit traditionally
>scan it
>draw over it with your tablet

>>4473781
True, but no barrel rotation :( fugg

>>4473802
>barrel rotation
WHARS THAT

>>4473835
Only works with wacom artpen that I know of. It allows you to change the angle of the brush by rotating the stylus. Extremely useful when you're using flat brushes for instance

Try using more arm and less wrist?

>>4473737
The left one is better both aesthetically and technically. One crucial reason for that is the fact it's not symbol drawing, unlike the one on the right. Reading this thread you're either baiting or are genuinely fucking retarded, in which case I hope you understand one day.

I have to ask, why did you even come here op when you don't seem interested in accepting any the advice of people who objectively know more than you?

Let this abysmal thread die. Bases are for nmgi DeviantArt cunts.

ITT:

>>4473786

you're tracing lmao that's not a "base"

>>4473661
As if the 2007 painterly photoshop fags are the hard brush guys

I agree

>>4473661
Kids these days. Ayup.

>tfw when you didn't make a single sketch worth painting in months.

Yes.

>>4473640
Those legs are REALLY bothering me.

>>4473640
I just wanted to switch the legs to see how it would look like. I'm a big fan of the artist

>>4473640
This confused me for a sec when I saw it on Twitter. It looks weird because her thighs appear to be occupying the same three-dimensional space, yet her calves/feet don't. The shoes are also ambiguous enough to read as if her legs are on backward. What seems to be intended is: legs are criss-crossed, and at a slight angle to the torso instead of parallel with it, so they're somewhat foreshortened.
It's a bad read no matter how you look at it. Doesn't mean it's a bad drawing, I personally like it, but I'm not buying the "doesn't matter as long as it looks good" narrative in this case. Looking good means not being unnecessarily confusing.

>>4473980
Example. Probably better examples but this is the best I could find.

>>4473989
Yea i think that was the artist intention to do that, but he failed to do it correctly.

>>4473525
FINE

>>4473525
COOL

I still remember you trying to shill this garbo on /co/.

>>4473525
Look like female Goku.

I masturbated.

pretty good

>>4473458
OP I think it's sort of against the rules to post nude anthropomorphic animals here

>received_156
why are you shaming your friend's art, op?

>>4473427
I always thought about making a thread dedicated to tips to pass on but I figured it wouldnt end up so good on /ic/
anyway

learn real life anatomy before trying to learn how to draw stylized things, you won't regret it, everything will sttart to make sense when you learn real life and study good stylized art

>>4473427
Really learn perspective, not just tech from Robertson. Then deconstruct objects with your mind in basic 3d shapes and sketch them. Do one object a day and you'll get giant visual library and will be able to draw from imagination ez. Guaranteed results in 1 month.

>>4473447
fpbp /thread

im forcing myself to use reference and perform studies. It's pretty hard on account of I've drawn from imagination my whole life. does anyone have tips for studies? would it be best to just start with shapes and stuff? Part of me thinks I already know the answer to this.

thanks

Worrying about being shitty will keep you shitty just focus on being better than you were a week ago.

>>4473377
There's things you can study within art that can help you get elite connections. But it comes with a price.

>>4474060
Such as?

>>4473377
Learn how to make ad banners. It's the most rewarding art career ever, speaking from 15 years of experience.

>>4473377
advertising

>>4474904
>>4474903
How do I get into ads?

>>4473384
im not convinced they're just paint overs, there are plenty of artists that are able to do something like this with references, his coloring and " "expressive" brush strokes" are what make him stand out though

>>4473527
Shoo, shoo knife dick.

>>4473365
It's soulful in a messily painted way. I wouldn't coom to it because the forms aren't defined enough for my tastes

All I see is monotonous, oversaturated coloring, poor stroke economy and really bad edge control. Your untrained eye might take it as "expressive" but there is zero nuance or emotion to it, the technique is not good and the whole thing just screams kitsch.

>>4473954

feels like calling it bad edge control is like complaining there's no color in a black and white piece

>>4473309
seems fine unless you're producing mangled shit

>>4473351
Grey sketch did use references though, here are drawings of his with ref and with no ref

>>4473282
Pretty fucked.

You can't draw from imagination something you don't know, and the process of studying reference is storing things away to recall later. So yeah, you're pretty fucked there.

That said, life drawing is the most boss shit ever and I wish I could do it more.

>>4473282
At some point there must be that itch telling you that the dragon would be better if you knew how to draw scales, that the spacemarine would be better if you knew how to draw a real Armorum Impetor. That would be your incentive to get better everytime you encounter a difficulty while drawing a dragon being eaten by a Spacemarine.

>>4473631
Everyone has a different definition of "draw from imagination" so I understand why there may be some confusion.
I spend an autistically long amount of time on every one of my drawings, I treat them as long projects whereas most people here will work on a drawing for a couple hours at most and then shelve it. If I needed scales for a drawing and couldn't draw them satisfactorily, then I would spend hours or days if necessary looking at references of scales and redoing my own until they were either satisfactory or until I decided it just wasn't worth the effort and move on.
I know this sort of process runs counter to every piece of advice ever given, but this is pretty much the only way that I can actually enjoy drawing and look forward to drawing without it feeling like torture so I've decided to just roll with it for now.

>>4475841
I'd say one of those girls has more "soul meme" than the original

>>4475831
I love it when ignorant folks act clever, no you dont know what reference means and you dont know what tracing means. Illya's haters prove that every time. No arguments just "duhh you cant see it", lmao.

>>4475841
That could be argued for everyone who draws girls. Ofcourse youre wrong anyway.

if youre so desperate for ideas, just go use any of the hundreds of character/creature/scene generators online or do fanart of your fav stuff

lack of ideas is impossible unless you got mental problems

>>4473196
Draw two pigs fighting over a gun

>>4473196
Draw some lewd furry.

>>4473503
i has mental problems pls help

>>4473196
It's not about having ideas, it's just about knowing what you like.
Once you know what you actually like in art, you also will have more than enough ideas.
You just have to find inspirations from other artists you like, movies, books, real life, etc.
It's about consuming stuff and listening to yourself to find out what you really want.

>Emily Didonado
Yeah it looks nothing like her

ngl top tier daisy, I hope other people posts their daisys as well

>>4473184
I really really really liked this Daisy

What you thing /drg/? I feel like this is one of my bestest work yet

This is my contribution for the day /drg/

>>4473179
You stop complaining and you start learning basic anatomy and perspectives

>>4473179
I don't understand, it doesn't look like its drawing, just sticking its tongue out.

The artist is obviously good, but most of the appeal comes from the different layers of lighting and shading. If you just envision it as line art you can see the drawing itself isnt all that complicated, but the lighting and rendering are excellent

>>4473260
still lives such as the one you posted

bitch

>>4475537
why are you so mean

i'm talking about his paintings, which are well rendered but have literal blob arms, weird freakish bean faces and bad proportions

>>4473169
lol. get back to work.

That one is japanese

terrible book, exercises are almost useless
get some books on anatomy and perspective instead

>>4473135
>Pseudoscientific

Split brain experiments prove it dumbass. Literally scientific.

>>4474466
elaborate?

Imagine coming to a website and complaining instead of doing basic exercises that would take you -maximum- 1 week

>>4474466
it's overextrapolated and misapplied pop science, not actual science.
and even if it were scientific, which it's not, it would be about as relevant as explaining exothermic reactions and phase changes to somebody who is just trying to boil some pasta.

>>4473094
Talent is real threads

>>4476558
the word you're looking for is soul

>>4476558
it pays less attention to reality, allowing the artist to bend perspective and reality if it suits him. the 3d one is more technically accurate, but that loses the composition effect the 2d one has

>>4473134
I know that's a pic from Kim Jung gi but who did the render?

>>4476558
I think the lighting and colors just suck on the rendered one, it's not telling a story, as opposed to the linework and stylization giving the left one character
