Get what u can from english resources but dont go too deep, typical western way of learning art is not suitable for anime. Then, keep comparing your work to other anime artists and see what is missing, how they draw, why they draw it like that. Simpler styles are easier to figure out, but more advanced stuff youre gonna have to figure out in what way you can.
Also, there are image translators online.

>>5251050
a good way I learned how to color in anime style is by watching speedpaints. for example, shirabii on youtube. he has both streams and speedpaints you can learn a lot from.

yandex.com is awful but i guess you could get something out of it.

>>5252236
bullshit

>>5254640
lol mad

how do I go about making drawing something I want to do and consistently do everyday? I'd like to draw everyday, and I ideally spent a lot of time on it.
I actually have the free time atm. but aimlessly browsing the internet, entertainment media and porn are way more stimulating, and way easier. drawing can feel stimulating too, and it often does when I actually do it, but it can't compare to those other activities.
thinking about how consistently drawing now and developing a skill would be better for my future doesn't work. I can intellectually understand it, but it doesn't feel like a real imminent threat/issue. taking care of other responsibilities (like schoolwork) is easier to do, because there'll be consequences right away, if I don't.
I had no success with "just be disciplined" as a long term strategy either. Might work for a few weeks, but mainly just made me dislike drawing.

>>5254757
Get used to just randomly scribbling on the page even if you don't have any ideas, the goal is to condition yourself to regard drawing as your "do nothing" time that you are currently spending with internet garbage. And yes this is all about discipline.

Having a hard time to draw the mouth and make stuff pop, I like the feel of the jacket tho

>this retard screeching about sycra because he draws in his own artstyle instead of focusing on hyper realistic studies

>>5251839
boomerisa

>>5254975
The core philosophy, and one I agree with, is that you should focus on at least semi-realistic studies before branching off on your own style.
In short, you need to learn and understand the rules before you start breaking them.

Please post your work after you implement it.
I very much would like to see your improvement.

>>5251703
>The Pareto principle states that for many outcomes, roughly 80% of consequences come from 20% of the causes
you must be pretending
this is like if i told you to "use the rule of nines"
"9 lines per sketch, 9 forms per drawing, 9 folds per clothing, 9 inches per line"
>>5251502 said it best, this is just pseudointellectual drivel

Always use a reference. You arent Kim Jung Gi. Use references until you cant find anymore, then make your own. It'll take years before you can work reference-free in any capacity without looking like ass.

>>5250961
References are fine.

>>5252654
This is flat but I dig it if it's a style choice. Great colors looks like a movie poster

>>5254070
Guess that's what I get for not drawing for half a year. She had kinda difficult eyes to manage but definitely messed up my shadows alot.


>>5254080
Thanks!


>>5254112
Don't have much on my phone but found something from a couple years ago, but not realism.

How can I improve this?

>>5250872
Do it in the mirror

something something good artists copy great artists steal

Any Flipnote-style app on a browser or mobile works too. Flipnote itself if you happen to have a DS laying around.

>>5251164
so if i work in ink, would i need white ink?

>>5251199

Yes, or could try making highlights with an opaque, white colored pencil, like the ones made by prismacolor, or even white gouache.
It depends on how detailed you want your studies to be.

>>5251208
right now im experimenting with crosshatching so its sort of confusing knowing what values i have.

>>5250948
Start off with a grey layer, do a sketch layer, then a value layer with white and black, and then paint the peace fully.

>>5251330

If it were me, I'd start off separating my studies. Cross-hatching can be used to denote value, but its a separate skill on its own that shows planar information in a certain way.
When I tried to incorporate hatching into my master study of Jean Baptiste Greuze, I'd find myself using too many line to indicate cross contours and it effected the way the values were set up.
Reduce your values to 5: center light, half tones, shadow, core shadow and cast shadow- and you should be able to get most of the most out of the study without too much confusion.

>>5250828
Let it happen, when you find the scammed expose them, get your free twitter publicity

>>5250828
Someone's selling games on Steam for several years made with my Patreon pictures. But there's nothing I can do about it, since filing a takedown request (if those even do anything) requires my name - not my artist handle but my real name, which is then also sent to the perpetrator. So the only thing I'd be doing is giving criminals my identity so they can doxx me.

>>5251099
People fall for them all the time. Look at redbubble, lmao.

>>5252102
This is interesting. I assume you are doing this because you are creating NSFW art?

>>5252945

>It appears that Datuna is not in any serious trouble. A spokeswoman for Galerie Perrotin, which represents Cattelan, the artist behind the piece, told the New York Times that the gallery would not take legal action against Datuna, adding that “it’s all in good spirits.” Gallery staff also substituted the missing banana with a new one, the Times reported.
total money laundering, probably tasted like shit too

Banksy is the epitome of mediocre surface-level bullshit that makes normies shit themselves with joy.

bansky is old and fat and gay. a sissy form of dissent. his schtick keeps stale old liberal punks and hippies believing they're still the rebel side as they keep shoving their retarded dogmas like intersectionality on the younger, broke and disenfranchised generations.

Why do all your paintings look like you use the wrong end of the brush?

>>5250691
Good job fren. How much did you get?

>>5250699
50 bucks now, some more later, and probably a percent from every copy sold (it's an NFT).

>>5250701
I heard a lot about this nft thing, it's crypto based transaction right? Is there any community, app, guidelines or something like that?

>>5250711
Yeah, there's plenty of sites like rarible where you can sell your own art. Or just poke around telegram channels of new coins, lots of upcoming nft projects are looking for artists.

>>5253685
Also, while I was shopping at local supermarket I saw a knockoff (?) staedtler watercolor set and since it was real cheap like only five bucks I grabbed it along with a cheap faber castell drawing book to have some fun. Costed me seven bucks in total. I'll play with this for the time being while waiting my order.

whats the most youd spend on a gross of vintage pens?

Anyone here used nitram charcoal before? How do I use it Correctly? I bought a few ones yesterday, I didn't have time to play with them but I notisted they don't work on newsprint. What paper should I use?

Bump

I manly use prismacolor for figure drawing and practice and sometimes polychromos in this video

He recommended strathmore layout bond paper. Sadly they don't sell this one in my country and if i were to order one it would be expensive as fuck because of the size of this one.
I have never tried one before and i don't know the feel of the paper( i have only used printing paper and i would like to go bigger 18x24")
Any alternative to this ?

>>5250647
Is that Pixel parmesan?

>>5250651

>>5250657
wait nevermind those are the same person

once again trannies are drawing while you don't. They have already won because you didn't put in the effort to push them out of the competition with your art.

>>5250647
You don't even draw, faggot.

you should think through what you want. art materials are expensive, and not long after you would want to expand upon your "total beginner" tools and paints, then leaving you with materials which you have no use for either because of the medium that you decide you do not want or because of the quality.

>>5250559
Yellow, red, blue, black and white paints is the bare minimum as far as colors are concerned, these are the basic colors that you can mix into anything, even if the result is less vibrant than having a tube of the resulting color
Ideally you want to start painting with whatever you want to end up doing right away (want to do oils? Try out oils)

>>5250587
I'd like to suggest Magenta and Cyan over Red and Blue. Yellow, Magenta, and Cyan are the true primary pigments. Red and Blue can be mixed.

>>5250559
what this anon said >>5250613 as for -type- of paint, acrylic is the easiest medium to get a hold of. I use pic related regularly, not professional level, but good quality for the price.

>>5250587
>Yellow, red, blue, black and white paints is the bare minimum as far as colors are concerned

you should read what you just wrote and empathize with your mother. not having money when youre a single parent isnt an option. i grew up with an alcoholic abusive single mother who worked constantly but i can understand why her life was the way it was. grow up and forge your own future, dont be a sulky manchild.

>>5250368

Holding my pencil like this deformed my finger by the time I was like 10

>>5250957
I have gorilla strength, so I naturally hold the pencil extremely tight. The bump on my finger isn't actually a callus it is deformed bone.
