Drop a styling tipif you need more dimension on your artwork, turn the whole piece into a brush (Set it to a keyboard shortcut in the shortcut menu) and fill in going different directions for movementGot a collection of Andy Warhols, understand how easy it is to go stamp crazy. Sampling some things might drop a strange line, or a weird fate, terrestials if sampling real things.
Can find some real interesting characters in repeated patterns with some mirrors with filtering as well
It's funny that beginners always fall into this weird trap where they find something that is very novel to them (as a result of being new to art, most things are novel) and then immediately trying to impart that to others with the air of an educational authority.
>>7158861Could you take the cock out of your ass for one second?
I do the basic forms of shadow and light and I get stuck on detailing (eyes, etc) I'm fairly alright with lines but the second I try painting it looks horrible
I now realize elaboration is not my best field, I will return with your asks answered

>>7153104>How does one "draw funny"?Try drawing self-portraits OP, I think that'll give people a good chuckle.
in the photomanipulation category at the colorado state fair and everyone lost their minds
>>7159330why come to the ai thread and complain about ai
>>7159380It's pretty funny to see ai seethe posts at the same time /beg/ is bumped
goodbye thread
>>7159305I didnt respond to this because you were obviously too upset to have a reasonable discourse and know next to nothing about ai but I wanted to let you know you should kill yourself
>>7159390i honestly dont believe you have a grasp of the english language
I tried to learn to draw but frankly I believe I had little to no improvement. This is making me depressed, what did I do wrong?
>>7158219Worse? bullshitI have no talent>>7158215>>7158209Why do i have no talent
so how come you guys try to motivate an obvious troll but crab people who actually try
>>7158233They're projecting.
He's so me. I'm still going to try though. I want to get these images out of my head.
>>7157699not op but did a quick sketch on the corner of my page
I'm autistic, with ADHD. I can't focus on trying to get better at all or even come up with anything to draw without just giving up and going back to looking at my phone and doing something else.I've legitimately never been able to commit myself to any serious hobby and have gotten lazy over the years with my only actual one which is writing and the only reason I'm good at writing is because I wanted people to be able to understand what the fuck I was saying and I wanted to write good stories because I thought I'd never be able to make them in a visual medium, but that's it. I've never been able to commit to a serious routine, schedule, or anything. I just sit in my room online doing basically nothing.Everything I try doing looks so daunting and impossible. I tried learning Source Filmmaker as a teen and I gave up immediately because it looked too complicated. I tried learning how to make my own games in game maker, gave up immediately and never touched it. Even something like drawing just looks so complex and impossible. This is what it's like for everything I try doing.
>>7157955>>7157983>>7158101>>7158220Jump off a bridge, bump niggers.
>>7157983I would try, but when I'm on a long acting stimulant, I can barely even hold the pencil. When I'm on a couple of short acting like I am now, it doesn't give me a big enough boost to be motivated enough to draw or do anything.

I started drawing on February 25th, 2024. Initially, I copied various drawings from animes I liked, but eventually, I realized this approach wasn't working for me, so I switched to "Keys to Drawing." Despite the change, something still felt off about my drawing process.I realized that I never talked to myself while drawing; instead, I mindlessly copied and observed without engaging in any practical dialogue or reflective thought. I always rushed my drawings without thinking deeply about what I was doing.What's really challenging for me is to remain conscious while drawing. I tried to do this today but got distracted and slipped into autopilot. This demotivated me because, after three months of drawing, I realized I hadn't been actively thinking while drawing; I was just mindlessly copying and looking.My question is, has anyone else experienced this issue? If so, should I just push through and try to draw consciously and patiently, or is there an underlying issue I need to address?
>>7158193That's fair, I mean to each of their own I'll try my best to remind myself to think while drawing>>7158202I can't kill pawell man.>>7158203I'm not sure, because whenever I draw without thinking, I tend to dislike and criticize my work excessively. Perhaps I'm too critical of myself or I'm doing something wrong.Here's my work by the way it's my dad account as I have the worse storage ever.https://dad.gallery/users/5453/submissions
>>7158178>should I just push through and try to draw consciously and patientlyNot a single professional artist think when they draw, they all just draw and if something is off then they stop drawing and use the art fundamentals to fix it.Animators do the same thing but they use animation principles instead of drawing fundamentals, unless they're 2d animators ofc.
>>7158222>Not a single professional artist think when they draw, they all just draw and if something is off then they stop drawing and use the art fundamentals to fix it.Multitasking is a meme so focus on one thing.
>>7158203No. The Flow state is the state when your body is working automatically, it's for when you're working on something you already know. The difficult frustrated state where time slows down is where you're actually learning.Flow state when you work, frustrated state when you're learning.
>>7158178I gave up on any sort of thinking because it was never productive."How could this be represented with lines? I have no idea.""Why doesn't this look right? I have no idea.""What should I do differently next time? I can't think of anything.""What process should I use to create this? I don't know, because I have no knowledge of any functional drawing process.""Is there a resource that answers any of my questions or provides a process I can use? No."
Why is it so rare to see art where something is actually happening like pic related, instead of some character striking a pose (and looking at the camera)? Art is supposed to capture a moment, not emulate a photoshoot.
>>7154957 #I like light novels for this reason but it sucks illustrations are seen as kiddie. Probably because publishing houses want to save money just like when Tor got caught using AI art for a cover.
>>7154809My problem is I don't feel like spending 9 hours for 3k likes and 200 retweets. Or 100k likes and 3k retweets. Because either way you're just a moment on a timeline, and there's always another You below you waiting for their 3 seconds. Even if it touched someone, it's not a moment that endures. >Oh wow this is amazing2 weeks later you aren't even in the rear view mirror of their deepest thoughts. You happened, and for what? It's rewarding to look at art like this, it's just not as rewarding to make it
>>7154957>It's because art is "content" now instead of something with depth and value.Oh, come on. As if pinups and portraits haven't existed for hundreds of years
There are Portraits, a pose looking at the camera, and there is Illustration, portraying a scene from some story,defining the world through details.
>>7154809We'd write novels instead if we actually had ideas.
>Bad anatomy by a artist I like >Stylaization >Bad anatomy by artists I don't like>They're a hackYou troglodytes do this with everything and I hope you all burn in hell for it.
>>7158603bad anatomy is a faggoty nitpick at some point. If the art looks good, it looks good, and the i dotters just have bad taste
>>7158603OP is a retard>>7158615>unanimously agree on anything besides the fact that youre a niggerOP is 100% a nigger
>>7158603There's an aesthetic to good and bad.
>>7158603OP must be underage to be this retarded
Why do you care at all about anatomy being unrealistic if it looks good? Are you training to get a job in medical illustration? It's literally insignificant otherwise. If it looks good, it is good. It's art, not mathematics. If you want it to look good and be realistic or accurate, then you can do that. If you want it to look good and be cartoony or unrealistic, you can do that.You guys see everything as a pissing contest, it's so sad to see people here value social hierarchy over the love of art.

Posting in the Shadowthread.
Two degenerates down.
why do 80% of characters face towards the left?
>>7152785He makes no snese. No matter what way a chracter is facing, you can still make the pose in a way where you'll have to draw more ")" curves.What he said makes ABSOLUTELY no sense.
>>7156627wtf is this sorcery oO
>>7152558this made me curious, so i tallied up all the characters i've drawn in the past year. (n/a = front-facing or looking away from the camera) i'm right-handed btw
>>7152558why does it matter?
>>7157721left handed and i overwhelming draw facing right. i can find 1 left facing and 4 front facing out 20 sketches sketches ive done
do this
>>7158207Nice, did you made it with a marker pen?
>>7155511kek
I did this for a howie in the beg general
>>7158349I did it with a “micro fineliner” pen. I think the brand is Leto? Some Chinese shit I got on Amazon.
do they really all have a damaged visual cortex or something?theyr art is always ugly in this wierd samey way that i cant express into words exactly
>>7157572It's almost like we should've never let bankers become more powerful than kings. It's only led to self-hating commoners pursuing power to power's sake no matter how self-destructive it is, and dragging us all into their madness.
>>7157601they do make art, it's mostly of shitty political cartoon art or a variation of stone stoss. Those garbage drawings are the same veil of tumbler horseshit.
>>7157601>>7157609>>7158191Real right wing artists don't share their art online, it's their hobby not a perfomance like it is for leftoids.Chuds do draw shitty wojaks and gotchu comics but they're not right wing they're just contrarians. If we were in a right wing zeitgeist they'd be drawing troony comics instead.
>>7157112They hate appeal and love glorifying ugliness
