>KEEPS DRAWING>DOESN'T GET BETTER
>>7161212Yes, I got worse.
I realized I dont actually get better. I just find new ways to gaslight the viewer.
>>7161245I suggest drawing more then
>>7161256So I can get even worse than I already am? Thanks.
Is it normal to get angry at yourself for getting better? That just means you were wasting time doing something wrong before.
what is a good resource on digital color, and color theory as a whole?
POST MORE TOMBOY TITS NOWRIGHT FUCKING NOWAAAAAAAAAA
>>7158470From my experience, color theory does not have that much theoretical knowledge involved. Any video or article about color theory just repeats the same things about hue, value and saturation, the color wheel, primary, secondary and tertiary colors, and that is about it. Once you read about that, I think it is more beneficial to analyze photos and pieces of art you think have good colors and then try to bring their color schemes into your own art. What also helped me was getting out of stereotypical ideas of what color things have to be. Skin is not always peachy orange, depending on the colors surrounding it, it can be yellow, grey, blue, etc and still look right. Black hair often has tints of red and blue.I think any artist can benefit from just paying more attention to the colors around them. So when you see a really pretty sunny street, think "What colors do I see? Why do they work so well together? Are there any colors that I wouldn't expect?"

We've heard of aphantasia and how it can hinder your artistic abilities.But what about prophantasia? It's the ability to actually project what's in your mind's eye into your vision.Apparently it's trainable by looking at an image for a while, then looking at a blank screen.
>>7160591I swear this is meant as a communication channel for some sleeper agent
>>7160582For aphantasia to be real you'd have to not be able to remember how someone or something looks, absolutely retarded cope
>>7160582Sounds like early stage dementia, no thanks.
>>7160582Or do drugs, I’ve seen detailed images and even rooms when my eyes were closed. Mdma, 2cb, LSD and weed can cause this
>>7160582What is the animation version of this? And prophecy making kind.
Moai drawing: Continuation thread
>>7157997Could work in monochrome but I feel like it doesn't look quite as nice without the hue shiftWhen you say how I constructed it? Basically I drew a moai shape over a blue Background and added wave ripples>>7157473Based >>7157946LOL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvogPJv1wOU
i've never drawn a moai before, how did i do?
>>7107824Now draw him bigger.
>>7155817Silly Anon, skeletons aren't real. But it's a nice drawing of that definitely not real thing.

It is 2024, and AI Art is now mainstream. The normies on Facebook and instagram love it.Almost nobody gives a fuck about "AI art is theft", and corporations like WotC, Blizzard, Disney, Anime studios and art studios are now using AI art in secret. I saw a skinny metro california guy "taking a stand against AI art theft" and it was the most cringe shit ever. Even if img2img is theft, the consumers don't give too many shits.It was a nice run everyone, but the public has sided with AI, it has won.We fought, we lost.Now we rest.
>>7160586You're only admitting that you genuinely believe that everything on the internet is serious business.And i hope for your own sake that you're only pretending to be retarded.
>>7160597Jokes on you, I'm most points of view in every argument on /ic/Lay down and die with me.

>>7152991>i fear that we live in a world where anyone can take a child's face and superimpose it over pornwagmi bros, our time has finally come
How has your art evolved and changed overtime?Are you currently happy with it or not?
>>7160822Yes and am very happy with it. I really wanted to be able to draw in this one certain weeb style for a long while. Over time by copying shit left and right I kinda got the hang of it and I can do it without reference with almost any character. Sfw, nsfw. Comic. Etc. Took a long fucking while but in the end feelsgoodman.
>>7161319I'm a retard and misread question. It was not just a yes or no. But idk how to answer it anyway.
>>7160822It changed somewhat. Very slowly tho.I have two redraw challenges that I use to keep track of my progress but has been 2-3 years since Ive done a new entry to them
>>7160959I liked both
my art used to suck, it still sucks but it sucks less than it did before so i am happy that i'm not stagnatingi could have improved faster but studying is boring while finding a cool image and copying it by hallucinating construction lines is more fun
Based or cringe?
>>7160749*apple pencil
>>7160495I recently bought a few of those 3D printed model kits from Ali and will be putting them together when I get the chance.
>>7160495i have the same color one and i've only drawn it twice
>>7160767How many times you have cum on it?
>get off from work (corpocuck job)>too tired to drawi thought it was just a meme but now i understand, this is awful
>be me>work in construction>moving heavy shit 8 hours a day with a 30 minute lunch pause>coming home from work >go to kickbox>come home>1 hour minimum of drawingyou have no excuses, it's the damn internet algorithm that is frying our brains.Just close the tech and pick yourself up from your table, start drawing,just let the pen do whatever, eventually you will feel in a mood to draw, it's even kind of relaxing, it just takes mental fortitude.
>>7158646This is why artists have always been vagrants and wanderers who lived on the peripheries. Bohemians and counter culture weirdos, poor people, etc. Live light and only do the bare minimum to stay fed and have a room to sleep in. You don't need most modern amenities or entertainment, they are largely distractions for plebs to escape from their discomfort of their own skin anyway.
>>7160462>There's been studies that have shown there's a cut off point for learning optimization somewhere around 2.5 to 4 hours.that's cool, yeah that 1 buzzfeed study that 1 time, but in practice it's alot different, art progression doesn't work the same way, you could draw 8 hours and finally get a good piece have a breakthrough that's happened to me a ton of times. & it's not as though we are studying or learning and pushing ourselves that entire 4 hours of drawing, we're just drawing and painting most of the time repeating shit we've already done.
>>7160462also no one in the top % of anything is doing it for 4 hours a day, so there's no argument.
>>7160504It's not the physical toll, it's the mental and spiritual damage. I've been in offices pushing paper and I've been outdoors doing physical labor and I'd pick the latter everytime. Office work has a way of crushing the individuality and artistic curiosity out of you that's hard to explain.
How the hell do you use these things?
>>7156684get an armature 9
You don't. These mannequins are more a decorative piece than an actual artist tool. You're better off getting one of those fancy anime action figures or a stickybones as shown in >>7158578
I have anime mannequin, but it seems useless to me, because it’s a struggle to get natural pose. and it will only look good from one angle. it’s much better to find photo reference of a real person, then the pose will make sense.
>>7156684It's mostly to understand foreshortening from different angles. You can pose it and see how certain body parts look foreshortened and where they are in space. Definitely not useless. A lot of people mistake it as a figure drawing reference, which it is not. I use this thing though: >>7158056 which is good enough that it can inspire ideas. Usually what I do is I imagine a scene from nothing, then use the Sticky Bones puppet and recreate the pose. Then I look at it from different angles and many times I improve on my idea by seeing more interesting perspectives and/or making slight adjustments to the pose.I
>>7156684The ones I have I only really use for proportion or even basic shading/lighting guides. As for posing they’re trash and I’d just use an action figure instead
I drew a lot yesterday and now my thumb hurts.
Stop death gripping your pencil like as if you were gooning and hold it more easy on your hand. The right finger position gives all the stability you need without pressing down like your clinging on to dear life Also of you feel your wrist hurting take a short break as well
>>7158097Try holding it like a fag your about to smoke
>>7158097Try either bigger or thicker pencils then if your not used to handling smol items
>>7158097>retarded gripaah I see the problem
>>7158002You gotta take breaks and do some stretches my nigga

It's got a nice feel to it. as for gag comics they are usually reliant on a setup, leading to a punchline gag ending. but they don't have to be.>>7161198this is interesting.
>>7158862Interesting how you added gamification to the comic with the build and stats graph. The rest of the work needs more work.
