You can do a billion cubes in your mind then you won't be able to draw a straight line because you don't have the muscle memory.

ART IS A SPORT, not a theoretical science. You read the rules once, you put them in practice ten hours a day every day for the rest of your life and maybe someday you'll be worth a shit.

Lol the biggest problem you dipshits have is obsessing over the fact that you're not 17 anymore.

>Feel more tired, rinse repeat.

Stop listening to teenagers and crabs, you're not a senior citizen until you're like 67.
Also if you're actually 30, you're far enough away from whatever energetic life you thought you had that any memory you think you hold is false and just some narrative you constructed from the culture around you.

about 2 years, nothing about this compositionally is crazy, the thumbnail is very simple, the horse anatomy and pose is also very basic just enough to show it's a horse nothings really defined, could just drop in a horse photo and paint over it to the same effect, the rendering and painting is the strongest part and it's not insane either

That's a cute picture
Decent simplistic artstyle that you could push further. There are tons of artists specializing in this sort of drawings
In general you could round out shapes more like with the teddies legs
Also the only truly weak part is the cattle, I feel you could have done that better
I know you don't intend that for me to reviewed but I just saw it and am to lazy to get out of bed

You guys are some early beginners. Even way worse than me because you both lack the understanding of fundamentals
There are only two differences between you as artist. One is that one of you draw on paper while the draws digitally and the other is that the later can utilize reference more

>>7161490
It is hard to give much advice for someone like you because I run risk throwing you to the wolves and that could burn you out
But non the less Id advise you to use heavy heavy reference. Use screenshots of the show and try to replicate them as good as you can or even trace over it.
This will give you a better understanding of why stuff looks the way it looks and how to more easly draw it
Because your mistakes are very obvious
Horns are different size, bangs are weird, her hair in general is on one side bigger for no reason, the hands in general and everything feels flat. And I could go on
Take some time and try at least copy what you see to a good extent than try to understand it

>>7161544
Your work, though a little bit better also suffers from it being flat. For example take thr big files head, though drawn from an angle it dose not feel that way.

I find it easier to draw for long hours, when I see someone else also drawing instead of wasting their time.

Do you guys know of any streamers that show themselves drawing? I'm NOT looking for streams like pic related, where it's just a screencap - I want to see the person behind the canvas as well. Something like Bob Ross, but longer and with more focus on drawing/digital than traditional painting. It would be a dream come true to have a live cam of an mangaka, but I doubt that's gonna happen

Eh, not really. It's more about having a companion beside me in the background, something to glance at every now and then and to say to myself: "he's not taking a break yet, so I don't need one either, let's keep going".

>>7161526
>weird parasocial ngmi behaviour
It's an neurodivergent thing. I've recently learned that I have autism and this technique (called "body doubling") is supposedly helpful for people like me so it seemed worth trying out. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ni9biXNDZe0
Yeah, it does seem really bizarre, but judging by comments under that video, it may be just what I need.

I have not had sex can I make this kind of art?

>>7161522
No one ever had sex here. And no one who draws this shit have sex. That's why they do it. To cope with that. Having sex dries up any deranged desire or motivation to do this shit.
That's why that "no-fap" bullshit is so fucking retarded and criminal. Men need to take that shit out of their system periodically. So their brains can function normally with out the hormonal dis-balance fucking up their thoughts and turning their brains into an sponge full of cum.

The cave paintings in Chauvet cave are relatively deep into it. There's no pinholes for them to have used, nor is there evidence of any having used to be there. they were just good at art.

A thread for recommending and sharing brushes/digital art assets.

>Publicly editable rentry for CSP assets. Feel free to contribute brushes you have purchased. Assets that have been deleted from the store are also welcome to be uploaded here.
https://rentry.org/CSP_materials

>CSP assets store wishlist
https://rentry.org/Brush_Wishlist

>"What brush does this artist use?"/"What brush looks like this?"
1.)Search "brush (from:artisthandle)" or "assets.clip-studio.com (from:artisthandle)" on twitter if that's where they post mainly. Make sure to set it to the Latest tab to see the artist's tweets. Or use Nitter.
2.)Search brush posts on their Pixiv Fanboxes/Booth/Patreon. Then try to see if it's on kemono or archives.
3.)If none of the searches work, then ask here.

Anybody else feel inspired by AI. Much like ChatGPT serves as a more direct replacement for google search, AI generation serves as a replacement for google images.Now, instead of having to search through tens or hundreds of images to find an ideal reference, AI can instantaneously generate a pose from a description of tags, or the average of the pose your trying to reference. Say you want to render something, with img2img you can plug in a bare-bones sketch and instantaneously get a near finished product to reference. If you want an idea of anything, such as how to render a drawing, poses, or even the group consensus of the way a character or a your OC is supposed to look, you can use AI.

How can anyone look at this and not be thankful. Just as digital art democratized drawing for those unable to try out digital. AI is democratizing art for those who can't dedicate thousands of hours watch tutorials on digital art, and instead serves as a shortcut for proficiency.
